In this debut album, Grant travels through an action packed-adventure filled with meeting a girl at the station, getting fuzzy feelings, and getting drunk with a girl at a bar. Very experimental throughout, but he's got some MAJOR hard hitters that will keep me playing them on repeat time and time again.

Grant's EPs just keep getting better and better.
While this is short, it holds a special place in my heart with the catchy, high energy 'Ego,' and the heartfelt, reminiscent 'Wishful Thinking.' It's a good EP overall, it just seems so short in comparison to others. But hey, it's another collection of loverboy vibes to add on.
Overall not a bad EP from Grant, yet it feels unfinished. Really love the themes here about love (as always), but it's a great starting point for his music. In my opinion, '(Only) About Love - Demo,' 'Confusing Girl (+ Demo),' and 'In My Heart - Demo' are the standouts for this EP.
JVB are a collective duo that have improved SO MUCH during the time that I've listened to them, and this album has NOT disappointed. For new listeners, it's a welcoming album that'll get you hooked and waiting for more JVB records. For OG's, it's definitely a great refresher on what our favorite duo can do.
As I continued to go through the album for the first time, I noticed the references, the slick beats and the silly punchlines, as well as JV's memorable voicing on each of these songs. These ... read more
'ALOHA INOHA' is a great debut album, and although somewhat messy and a little 'silly' at times, this shows the true colors of what the INOHA band is capable of. The surf-rock feel is consistent through the album, and showcases the best of all members, especially in tracks such as 'Saturday Nights,' the fan-favorited 'Seventh Heaven,' and 'GESHUOU.'
Really the only improvement, in my opinion, would be a smoother flow from song to song, but I digress. Cheers, INOHA.
By far the catchiest out of all of his songs, I'm a HUGE fan of this. It displays Grant's great backing vocals with a strong lead, as well as showing how diverse his records can truly be. He went from Clementine to this, and I'm hooked.
This song FEELS like Christmas, the tones for it are just perfect for what it's trying to bring to the Christmas Tree. Overall a great song in general.
I mean what can I say? The song is catchy, it flows great with Cordiale's vocals; overall a great single by Grant!
Do I even have to say anything about this?
This is the song that has single-handedly put Grant on the map, and for great reason.
The blend of soft guitar (the solo is GREAT), with the light taps of the hi-hats for the duration of the song, as well as Grant's raw voice creates this masterpiece, which in my opinion is just perfect.
Twenty One Pilots.
To end a decade-long era through this medium is one of the best highlights of their works, especially from a rebound off of SAI.
Their singles were a tone-setter, going from Overcompensate's savvy drum beat to the punk rock drive of Next Semester, and ending with Backslide's Vessel-y and Trench-y hybrid (at least IMO); this is definitely one of their most memorable records put out to date.

Overcompensate: 94
Next Semester: 100
Backslide: 82
