Simple but infectious.

Fun.

A great end to one of the best album runs of all time. Essentially Aja 2.

Almost all of Steely Dan's most popular work is on this album for a reason. It's an absolutely incredible debut.

CHROMAKOPIA stands out with its fantastic production. The beats are clean and crisp, creating a polished sound throughout the album. Each track showcases a variety of styles, all tied together by Tyler's brilliant flow. The lyrics, exploring, his role as a father and his desire to maintain independence, add depth to the impeccable production.

A dream pop + alt metal album is an unlikely combo, and it nearly doesn't work. But... It does somehow.

Patterns In Repeat is a masterclass in emotive and creative songwriting. The album features beautiful guitar work, intricate backing instrumentals, and stunning vocals. Marling's lyrics are both powerful and poignant, making this album a truly incredible listen.

Might not be my preferred genre, or really a genre I've explored a lot of, but Ka's skill and creativity as a writer and producer is clear for all to see. Like many here, it's just a shame that I only heard about him after his death

Super entertaining and super fun album that doesn't take itself too seriously. Run rhymes, great beats.

The terrible production would be forgiveable if any of the songs were memorable. They vary from terrible to not very good with most being the former.

MG Ultra is a completely otherworld experience whilst being strangely nostalgic at the same time. It sounds like the soundtrack to a Rockstar racing game, or 18+ Sonic on ket. It just goes so incredibly hard.

Glimmer of God stands out from Jean Dawson's previous LP, yet remains unmistakably his work.

With brilliant vocals, strong themes, and amazing instrumentals—especially the orchestration—this album consistently excels, keeping the alt-pop genre fresh and exciting.

A little more mainstream-sounding than previous works, but still a great song with some really nice themes to the lyrics.

Pipe-defy is a very endearing project. Its rudimentary synth sounds make the album sound like it was crafted on a 90s Casio. It's got a nostalgic warmth to it that (combined with some catchy songwriting) creates an album that's just a really nice listening experience.

Find the Japanese sections in Circle Pit a bit cringe, but Bad Seed is pure Wargasm through and through.

It's an album that foreshadowed how hard rock would sound for the next 10 years. Everyone is in top form, right as hell, and it just sounds epic. Definitely an essential listen

When I was 10, I asked my teacher what his favourite album was. He replied "London Calling by The Clash. But don't listen to it now, listen to it when you're older." Well now I'm older and have finally listened to it. And it's as amazing as everyone says it is. Thank you Mr Dann.

An angry retrospective on the modern world. It's a super interesting mix of sludge and noise rock that just comes together really effectively.

A cool, spacey concept pulled off effectively. Whilst some of the songs feel a bit background, like incidental music for a camp 70s space cartoon, there are some other really soulful numbers with awesome brass/sax parts that are really attention grabbing. Super happy to have discovered this band.

The last half of the album is stronger than the first, but either way, this is a really nice (and sometimes fuzzy) psychedelic rock experience.
