As some of you may not know, The Doors are my favorite band of all-time. Along with their debut record being my favorite album of all-time, and the single "Light My Fire" being my favorite song of all-time. So yea, I guess it's safe to say I'm a little obsessed with the ominous band from Venice. Now, I've pretty much had a sorry-a** review of this record up for months now and I think it's time to give this masterpiece a well-deserved full write-up. After all, my favorite album ... read more

Leon Bridges' sophomore album, Good Thing, doesn't quite hold up to the impeccable quality of its predecessor, however, it does hold its fair share of groovy and beautiful tracks. It seems like his debut, Coming Home, took more influence from 50's-60's soul, whereas Good Thing seems to lean a little deeper into 70's soul. I am not complaining though because this is a very solid record and I love both. I hope he continues to let his influences shine in future projects.

I don't exactly know if this album falls more into the country spectrum or the pop spectrum; regardless, this is one of my favorite albums of either genre from the 2010s. I may be a little biased because I've always had a huge crush on Kacey, but I just love the heck out of this record. I think it's one of the highlights of 2018 (which was a great year for music). Kacey's vocals are superb, lyricism is solid, melodies are delightful, and the production is clean. Despite having a crush on her ... read more
A strikingly solid debut effort from the legend, Weird Al Yankovic. Hilarious lyrics and a great sense of humor throughout! Some of Al's most essential material can be found here. I can't remember the last time I had this much fun while listening to an album.

Pretty cute album with a handful of endearing duets and humorous moments, however, the majority of the material is just too...amateur (?) for my liking. It's just not very consistent. The songwriting kinda loses its innocence after the porn track lmao.

RHCP's sophomore record and their hideous debut record are practically like night and day. Nearly everything that was wrong with their debut (horrible production, lackluster lyrics, lack of direction, etc.) was resolved, or at least improved upon. No joke, there are some really fun tracks on here. The great opener, "Jungle Man" is an anthemic party bop, "Hollywood (Africa)" is a great song to just vibe to, and "The Brothers Cup" utilizes an ensemble of horns to ... read more
