underscores - U
83

lots of stuff happening in the best way possible.

Tiffany Day - HALO
90

SAME LA fucking slaps wtf.

nvm. This whole album fucking slaps. Some of the best electropop i've ever heard. Particularly strong start though, maybe a teeny tiny dip in quality towards the middle of the record. Some of these songs will be near my top songs of the year.

Such a psychadelic experience, it feels like motion sickness in the best way possible. Like you don't really know what's going on, but you're exactly where you're supposed to be. The album doesn't ... read more

Hole - Live Through This
75

All the songs are very strong. However, it gets a bit repetitive toward the backend of this album. Don't think that this aged all that well, sounds a bit dated.

Balstyrko - Jagten paa noget
90

Det bedste danske album som jeg har haft fornøjelsen af at lytte til. Mega sjovt lyrisk, og interresante produktionsvalg hele vejen igennem. Albummet er lidt antitetisk eller todimensionel i sit gyser-agtige soniske landskab kontra sin humoristiske lyrik. Kan klart anbefales til din mest insufferable performative musik-ven i nabolaget. Go aften.

JPEGMAFIA - I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR YOU
85

Regardless of how mad i am at peggy for postponing, and then cancelling his Copenhagen concerts / I have to admit that this might just be my favourite solo album of his. The only one that puts up a fight is LP *offline version*. This is just so fun, so aggressive, and my previous qualms with peggy, being that his ideas, whilst interesting didn't feel fully fleshed out do not exist on this here record. Every song keeps the intriguing elements that made me interested in his music from the ... read more

Magdalena Bay - Imaginal Disk
95

Incredible. Spellbinding through and through. Everything from the beat selection to the mixing and the vocals are just a chefs kiss. Gutted to have missed them on their tour, i think this would really be a transcending cult/like experience. I cant really point to a single weak point in this album, i've listened to it front to back more times than i can count. Instant classic, and something that i think will age extremely well.

Geordie Greep - The New Sound
90

Damn. I never rated this. Super super fun album. Better than anything he put out with Black Midi. MR. GREEP is a creative machine as evidenced by tthis album.

Freddie Gibbs - Alfredo 2
77

I really enjoyed this. Honestly though, i preferred the original. This album starts to feel a little repetitive towards the end. To me it doesn't feel like they tried to outdo their last effort. Still though, very enjoyable album.

Ethel Cain - Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You
83

Impressive. For me this is better than her last effort. Listening to this album after all the controverse made it all the better. I sympathize a lot with Ethel Cain as an artist, amplifying the emotions of the already strong storytelling element of the album. During my listening of her last album, i enjoyed it, but i never picked it up again. It didn't stay in my head or leave a lasting impression. This one however, has stuck with me since its release, and i still come back to it from time ... read more

高中正義 [Masayoshi Takanaka] - THE RAINBOW GOBLINS
95

goblin goblin goblin goblin goblin goblin...

one of my favourite jazz albums oat. Just so fun.

高中正義 [Masayoshi Takanaka] - SEYCHELLES
90

This feels like a beach day with a slight breeze. Super fun, No complaints.

Baby Keem - Ca$ino
70

More consistent than the melodic blue. But honestly, i expected more. The ideas don't feel fully fleshed out. The album struggles to stick to a theme, and while that might be the point of the album, i don't believe that these songs stand strong enough on their own to be able to carry that theme. With that being said... This album is still good fun.

ROSALÍA - LUX
90

absolutely adore this album. The production is extremely extremely lush while still retaining its melancholic qualities. Rosalia manages to convey a message despite the language barrier and i absolutely have to commend her for that. Definitely a step up from Motomami, an album i saw live in 2023. I hope to get the chance to see this one live soon.

RAYE - THIS MUSIC MAY CONTAIN HOPE.
80

really enjoyed this. Act I and II particularly. Maybe it's just listening fatigue that keeps it from reaching higher heights. Love the chaotic realm Raye operates in on this record, definitely a step up from her debut. There are songs here that are gonna be in heavy rotation.

Kanye West - BULLY
50

extremely boring. A few slight highlights but nothing that left a lasting impression. Definitely a step in the right direction for Kanye though. And if the rumous are true that he's planning to tweak the album, i'm looking forward to that, although i struggle to see how he will make it more memorable.

sombr - I Barely Know Her
64

sombr / i barely know her

have decided to be more analytical with my reviews, try and enjoy the music more rather than nitpicking at it. That being said, I think it’s impossible for me to giggle and call something which sucks “fun” / lets see where this lands.

This album is very very chorus coded, that’s not to say that the album isn’t good. It’s just not THAT creative or groundbreaking. To me, i’m left with a feeling of having heard the same song a ... read more

Quadeca - Vanisher, Horizon Scraper
93

been sitting on this album for a while. Listened through it a couple of times but never took the time to review it. I think it’s about time now. Quadeca is an artist who is incredibly special to me. From watching his youtube videos and his diss tracks back in 2019 to then forgetting about him and then picking back up my interest around the time IDMTHY came out. Since then, i’ve grown to really love IDMTHY, and i really appreciated Scrapyard for what it was too, so it’s fair to ... read more

Clipse - Let God Sort Em Out
90

løber et album #1

ny serie. Hver gang jeg løber en tur - vil jeg anmelde et album. Det bliver nok ikke lige så dybdegående anmelder som dem med de gode høretelefoner og hvor jeg sidder stille på værelset - men, altså - noget er noget.

Lækkert album at løbe til, super funky produktion. Klassisk Pharell med off-beat drums som virkelig ka' ramme hårdt når de altså går hånd i hånd med Pusha ... read more

Brittany Howard - What Now
82

I don’t know anything about Brittany Howard. I have never heard any of her music, but damn. This album is good. I’m really into psychedelically infused produced music, and I've heard that this album has lots of that, so I'm naturally gonna gravitate toward some songs.

Earth Sign, the opener, starts slow but quickly builds and showcases some of the most impressive vocals and vocal layering I've heard this year, and some very impressive, rambunctious, psychadelic, hard to pin down ... read more

Ariana Grande - eternal sunshine
65

Let me just start this off by saying: This is the first time I've listened to an Ariana album from front to back. Of course I've heard her hits, just like anyone else - but I'm yet to see which direction she goes album wise, and whether her albums differ stylistically. Ariana hasn’t dropped an album for 4 years, so you’d maybe expect something new from her on this album - rather than the formula of sexually infused pop / lowkey R&B tracks which she has previously had success ... read more
