My boyfriend says he's "too old" for music like this. He's 20 years old. I'm nineteen, less than a year younger than him, and I love this album. Screw that guy. The moment I heard that twinkly intro to "Cuts On My Wrist", I knew this was gonna be good. Some might say it's too sugary-sounding for them, but guess what? I love chocolate, I love cake, I love candy. I love sugary things a lot, and they're right; this album IS sugary as fuck, and I love that about it. It is a ... read more

Yes, this album is vulnerable. Hobo Johnson brings a level of honesty that we very rarely see in most mainstream rappers, and that's definitely respectable, but holy shit, could he do it in a more annoying way?

His voice is grating. He's constantly whining with every single line. He's so clearly trying to give his music a quirky, self-aware energy, but he ends up sounding so unsure of himself that he totally misses the mark and somehow makes the whole song sound uncomfortably insecure. Not ... read more

Finding out about Lou Reed's relationship with Rachel Humphreys was hard. Me being a trans woman myself, I always deeply connected with Reed's writing about the trans women in his life. Songs like "Candy Says" and "Walk on the Wild Side" were incredibly inspiring to me when I was in my mid-teens. Sure, some of the writing is a little outdated, but anyone who read the lyrics would be able to see that Reed was an ally of the trans community. This is especially commendable ... read more

The successor to 1000 gecs, 10,000 gecs, is often regarded as a very silly, random album. Some might say it's even sillier and more random than 1000 gecs. While I do agree that 10,000 gecs is very random and silly, it just doesn't feel right to say it's more random and silly than its predecessor. Both are probably about equally random (I don't feel like typing both words anymore), though I think that 10,000 gecs is a little more on the nose about its goofiness (with all the genre switch-ups and ... read more

As an electronic music producer myself, it can be hard not to be easily impressed by the work of other electronic musicians. Maybe this is just me, but when I listen to music like this all I can think about is the artist viewing the tracks in a DAW, programming in all the little intricacies. Stuff like this isn't easy or quick to make, and I think it's awesome that it came out sounding so good too. This is some really fun EDM that goes super hard but also has a sort of subtle sense of humor to ... read more

It's pretty much the same album with some improved mixing that creates more space for the different parts of the songs to breathe. So yeah it's great

I've never heard anyone execute ideas exactly how Katie Jane Garside did on this record. Lullabies was my introduction to her apparently extensive discography, and it's been a long while since I've been this interested in diving into one artist's work thoroughly. There's seriously no other album that I can think of that matches the energy of Lullabies. It's beautiful, it's creepy, it's sad, it's weird, and Garside does it all in her own unique way.

I especially love the chill nature of songs ... read more

dawg if this dropped tonight y'all would be writing some shit like "the hoes have been rained on" istg

It can sure be a lot for my little ears to handle sometimes, but this sort of hexD-ish/experimental cloud rap kinda stuff is so cool, especially when it's paired with such a terminally online, digital-feeling aesthetic. The haters will say it's messy, and it is, but the true transfemtrapstar fans (like myself) will not give a fuck about that. Out here, we love messy, chaotic shit like this. It breathes some serious oxygen into the crippled lungs of cloud rap, which, while I do love quite a bit ... read more

I think the vocals are really what makes 3D Country so great. Cameron Winter's singing reminds me a lot of a few vocalists I adore; Will Toledo, Stephen Malkimus, and Julian Casablancas, to name a few. Even ignoring that, his talent is undeniable to me. The vocal performances on this album are so dynamic, with Winter ranging from pained crooning to actually just screaming his ass off. Everything that comes from his mouth sounds so smooth and beautiful, even if it is literally just screaming at ... read more

Goo is the perfect cross between the noisy dissonance and catchiness of Sonic Youth's entire discography. Everything there is to love about the band can be found somewhere in this record. There still remains the harsh riff's, Thurston Moore continued to experiment with alternative guitar tunings that would define the unique energy of his playing, the vocals are still kind of unnerving, et cetera. But at the same time, you have a lot of infectiousness on songs like Dirty Boots, Mildred Pierce, ... read more

I really think that if jpeg never released anything past this point then this project would be held in much higher regard by people. ive seen some people say that this feels like underdeveloped versions of ideas Peggy would utilize later in his career, but I really have to disagree. sure, this album is much different than an album like LP or veteran or even STH, and in some ways that may hinder it (i.e. its messiness), but really the main difference of this record when compared to later JPEG ... read more
