Steve Lacy - Gemini Rights
90

A very good album that highlights Steve Lacy's remarkable songwriting. He doesn't stick strictly to one sound, and kinda bounces around. Overall a very enjoyable listen.

sign crushes motorist - i'll be okay
90

If this album is taken for what it is, which isn't an uber-fuelled million-dollar production, it's a very enjoyable listen that fits the chill vibe. Just a relaxing album that sparks ponder sessions, and I like that about it.

Take Care - Agony
85

Fits the nighttime vibes.

Van Halen - 5150 (Expanded Edition)
100

While I wish that they had more live songs, I'll take any new Van Halen at this point.

Swans - The Seer
100

An ethereal album that gives an amazing listening experience. Every track feels like a different cog in one giant machine. Michael Gira truly showed in this album that Swans still had a lot to put out, as they still do.

Metallica - Metallica
95

While a step back from Metallica's traditional sound, this album is still amazing. Tons of memorable songs and a beautiful guitar tone. Glad they actually had a bass rather than another AJFA.

Kanye West - BULLY
70

Honestly, he had some great production on certain songs; he just definitely needs to move past the "Bully Era." Leave all the AI behind and continue on an upward curve. Overall, not a bad album, just some low lows.

Nirvana - In Utero [20th Anniversary Edition]
94

Not only is the original album great, but the demos and remixes are an interesting take on the classic songs. Great for any Nirvana fan, but maybe a little much for casual listeners.

100

Literally Nevermind, but you also get a ton more Nirvana. What else could you want

Nirvana - Live at the Paramount
88

An album with solid live songs. A good spread across all their album with good instrumentals and vibes as usual. Upholds the Nirvana standard.

Nirvana - In Utero
92

I think this album defines Nirvana's sound and demonstrates they were much more than Nevermind. Heart-Shaped Box has some great lyrics, and all the songs have their own unique spin. Amazing album.

Baby Keem - Ca$ino
83

Definitely has a vibe around it. I feel the album gets better as you go on. Highlight with No Blame.

Nirvana - MTV Unplugged in New York
95

So nice to hear more niche songs. On top of that, the performance's vibe complements the acoustic sound, even though it's not fully "unplugged".

98

A true definition of Nirvana, with so many good songs and a clear representation of the band. A lot of people say it's overrated, but then you listen and realize that it is truly that good. A definite must listen.

Nirvana - Bleach (Deluxe Edition)
85

A great album with great live tracks on top of it. While not at the same level as Nevermind, Bleach is still a jam for any grunge fan.

Arctic Monkeys - AM
92

On par with FWN, and while it is a different sound, it provides an equally good listening experience. While not for everybody, AM is a great album for a transitional period of Rock.

Arctic Monkeys - Favourite Worst Nightmare
95

Some top-tier work from the frozen primates. It's unfortunate that the band declined from such a peak. But this is an amazing album for what it is.

U2 - Days of Ash EP
80

While it may not be the band's best work, it's not another Songs Of album. And I'm all for that.

The Police - Synchronicity (Super Deluxe Edition)
90

Great for fans who want more music, but a little intimidating for new listeners just trying to hear the OG album. All the live stuff is great, though.

The Police - Ghost In the Machine (Alternate Sequence Edition)
88

While I prefer the original versions of some songs, the new tracks are great, and Burn for You deserves more recognition.
