Die Ärzte - auch
69

Definitely a decent attempt at restoring their glory from Jazz ist Anders. Keeps some of the innocent, upbeat rock like from Lasse Redn, but fails to make every song something special.

Bandlez - Bubble Bath
55

Kind of boring, as per Bandlez style.

Samplifire, ECRAZE, Dr. Ushuu & Bizo - Stompe
61

I have never heard of any of these people and would not‘ve if Samplifire wasn’t in it.

MVRDA & SampliFire - Shook
85

This one hits and it hits HARD.

Bandlez - Stupid
53

It’s the epitome of „eh“.

LOST - Drop Kick
20

Laughable.

Bandlez - Earthquake
56

I mean, for how mid Bandlez is, it’s pretty expected. A little better than their average, though, since this one had its moments.

JEANIE - Disturbing Data
58

Pretty whatever. I don’t know why you would ever go back to listen to this EP unless you misclicked or something. Not very replayable or special at all, but I don't think it deserves a 30/100.

---Individual ratings---

S.U.B - 65/100 - Nothing crazy, but it's solid. Decent opener.
Malfunktion - 59/100 - Is there literally ANYONE who hasn't used this vocal sample?
Signal Breaker (w/FelMax) - 59/100 - Good. Nothing else to say.
Metalware (w/SQISHI) - 55/100 - Pretty boring. ... read more

Shinedown - Three Six Five / Dance, Kid, Dance
93

DKD is one of the greatest tracks of the year sofar. 365 carries its weight.

Shinedown - Three Six Five (piano Version)
34

Meh. Fits better for rock. The quality here is saddening.

Shinedown - Killing Fields
83

A very interesting song that has its moments. The beginning is very cool.

Shinedown - Leave a Whisper
79

Sounds all the same, but Shinedown is definitely on their way to something big.

Cybergore - GENESIS
89

The cover is an… interesting choice, but the album fucking slaps. I love what the two have done here, metal (sometimes) + hardstyle makes for a hell of a listen.

Shinedown - The Sound of Madness
94

Nothing short of spectacular: not a single miss to be seen, and every song is different and comes together to form a medley of pure art. Some parts feel a little boring, but the overall result is great.

Codd Dubz - Canal Street Crook
42

Sidewalk Psycho will forever be their magnum opus.

Men Without Hats - Again, Pt. 1
60

This EP feels like the definition of „good enough“:

Obviously, 1980‘s synthpop won’t work well in 2021, so Men Without Hats tried to fuse some modern elements into their songs and the result is… perplexing.

Now, some attempts at keeping the fun bouncy melodies and groovy drums do work, personally I love All The Young Dudes and even more, Blow at High Dough. The former keeps high bpm that isn’t weighed down by a bad melody or clashing elements; I actually ... read more

Kayzo - Rage
100

Somehow is the perfect mix of metal, dubstep, and for some reason, techno, and I seriously don’t understand why every single part slaps so hard.
