Olivia Rodrigo is currently the best mainstream pop artist of her generation and this single solidifies it.
Fucking hell
Genuinely what the fuck is this. Taylor said we'd finally be getting some catchy pop tracks again and I got my hopes up. I love 1989 and the stuff I've heard from Red so far so I was hoping she would finally go back to doing stuff on those albums. I was so tired of Taylor trying to be Lana Del Rey so I was glad she was going back to what we know works, OR SO I THOUGHT. Turns out this album is just like her last two just with less floaty production and only slightly ... read more
REVIEW #200
I keep thinking this EP is called Spooky Monsters and Nice Sprits for some reason.
This EP is kind of a look back on the early to mid 2010s era of the internet which when I first got access to the internet. Now, that was probably a massive mistake but it meant I didn't miss out on all the cool shit like MLG compilations, meme that have aged terribly and of course, Brostep. Of course, ten year old me thought that Brostep was the coolest shit ever at the time, then I sort of ... read more
Cunt is being served on a silver platter because Gaga is back
As someone who loves late 2000s, early 2010s Lady Gaga I was really excited for this album as it felt like a return to it with the singles Disease and Abracadabra. I especially love Abracadabra because of how batshit insane the song is. Half the song she is saying random shit and it somehow works, really fucking well, and that fucking synth at the post chorus is amazing. So I was hoping that with this album we would get more batshit ... read more
This album was such an amazing surprise.
With Kendrick you can never really tell what he's going to do next and clearly he wanted to play into that by surprise dropping an entire album out of nowhere and somehow managing to hide the entire thing from leakers. It's probably one of greatest surprise drops of an album I've ever seen especially considering how inconsistent the gaps between Kendrick project are.
Now the album itself, is actually really fucking good. I am so shocked ... read more
Psst... they're trying to build a prison.
One of the most impressive alternative metal albums ever made. This album manages to combine so many different elements yet they all perfectly fit together to create 44 minutes of greatness. This album goes bounces from being catchy, to being thought provoking, to being hilarious, to being emotional. This album tonal is all over the place, yet it works. "Chop Suey!" which is probably one of System of a Down's most beautiful and ... read more
Hi
This album sees Xiu Xiu embrace the catchy art pop sound they had experimented in their other works while also incorporating their weird experimental they are know for. This album might be a bit more forgettable than their other works but the highlights shine really bright.

Unlistenable Garbage. I couldn't even get a third of the way through this thing because of how bad it is. Ian is a joke of an artist. It feels like he's just here to make money by making trendy music in the laziest way.
Frank Ocean fans huffing that Chromakopium
Out of nowhere Tyler surprise announced a new album two weeks ago which came as a surprise for me and a lot of other Tyler fans but it is fully welcomed I didn't have to wait months for it and it is fire.
First thing, I did not expect the album to sound like this. I thought that this album was going to move more heavily away from the neo-soul stuff Tyler had been doing for his last three albums but nope. I would even go as far as to say that ... read more
I have no clue what the lady is yapping about but idc this shit is fire 🔥🔥🔥
Definitely a track that I need to let grow on me but I am fucking with this weirdo experimental shit and want more.
82 -> 90 Yep it's grown on me. Artists complaining about overly obsessive fans in their music is nothing new especially for Tyler (Colossus) but I feel this track stands out because it focuses on how paranoid the constant harassing of fans has made him and showcasing this paranoia ... read more
I'm your brat but I'm half pink and backwards but still your brat.
I've been waiting for this remix album ever since brat came out because of the remixes that were released released to hype up the album and the 365 shygirl remix. Now that it is here I can safely say it mostly lived up to the hype.
To call this a remix album, while an accurate description, does a little bit of a disservice to this album as I like to think of it as more of an reimagining. Most tracks have a ... read more
This album made my non-existent pussy holy, holy
Black Midi was a band that I really wanted to a discography deep dive into but never got around. I remember absolutely loving their 2022 album Hellfire, I even have it on vinyl but I haven't really looked into their other work. They have sadly broken up now but at least we've got this new album from the vocalist so let's see what this is lik- HOLY SHIT IT'S EVEN BETTER THAN HELLFIRE.

13 inches of Xiu Xiu
My journey with Xiu Xiu has come a long way in the short time between the release of Common Loon and this album. I had know about Xiu Xiu for quite a but didn't actually bother to look into them more. That was until Brad Taste in Music posted about his Girl With Basket of Fruit competition where he wanted his fanbase to create a reaction video to the Xiu Xiu album Girl With Basket of Fruit for the chance to win a $100. Now, if you've seen my review of Girl With ... read more
Xiu Xiu gets freaky
I need a lie down after how worn out it made me from how anxiety-inducing it is. Might do a longer review later but I'm tired lol.

And the winner of most slept on album of 2024 goes to...
This album was one of Fantano's first 9s of the year which makes me surprised people aren't talking about this album that much. Normally websites like this would be glazing it the entire year but nope. I have literally heard no one talk about this album except from Fantano which is a shame because it is really fucking good.
This album is beautiful dark and gothic. The production is lush and floaty while still maintaining a ... read more
At least 143 other producers she could have worked with yet she chooses to work with Dr. Luke
Big surprise, this new Katy Perry album is NOT GOOD which is probably the score that melon man is going to give this thing which is expected considering no one had any expectations for this album and they were right to not expect anything because Katy delivers the album equivalent of an AI generated image of unseasoned chicken.
This album combines every single shitty, garbage generic pop trope ... read more
Spooky album
My feeling on this album are incredibly weird. While yes I do this album is a good piece of art, it isn't really something I would listen to a lot of the time. Even some of Xiu Xiu's most inaccessible albums had some tracks I would go back to but here? Not really. That's not to say this album is bad, far from it, but it's something you've sort of got to appreciate as a piece of art rather than just another piece of music. I do really like this album ... read more
Yes I'm giving this album a higher score than Imaginal Disk.
No I will not elaborate.
