Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven!
100

i n t r o
starting this series has forced me to revisit all the albums in my cd collection. strangly enough, ive been actually avoiding godspeed you! black emperor because i hadnt remembered how good it was. i was uncertain that i was going to enjoy them again, and i was afraid that i'd hate them since i havent revisited them in a long time.

however, the outcome from relistening to this album was the opposite of what i'd initially expected. it was BETTER than what i could ever ... read more

after like 2 years after first listening to this album, i still love it. this was the album that really opened me up to music. i mean, sure, im not THAT much of a music nerd. i only listen to music if i like it or not, and i dont really pay any mind to band members unless its a band that i really enjoy. but for slint, its different.

they only have 2 albums and 1 ep, those being tweez, spiderland, and slint. compared to spiderland, their other 2 albums are underwhelming.

Les Cowboys Fringants - La Grand-Messe

i n t r o d u c t i o n
holy shit i havent listened to this album in so long. im from québec, where this group originates from, and wow this record is really nostalgic. i grew up with this music, of course, alongside many other genres, and it'll always have a long-lasting impact on me.

i found this cd in a library out of all places, which honoured the death of the vocalist of the band, karl tremblay. unlike the albums i reviewed previously, this album is actually quite sad and ... read more

The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

i n t r o d u c t i o n
back when i first got this on cd, i described it as "one of the best things ive ever listened to". which now, with my acclaimed musical knowledge, isnt true, like at all. but that doesnt mean that sgt. peppers lonely hearts club band is bad, it really isnt. i actually think its one of the beatles' best records, just behind abbey road.

this album, to me, has some of the beatles' strongest tracks: lucy in the sky with diamonds, a day in ... read more

Valve Studio Orchestra - Fight Songs: The Music of Team Fortress 2

this was, embarrassingly enough, my FIRST ever cd. im not saying im ashamed, but i mean it'd be cooler to have... i dont know... not a video game soundtrack as your FIRST cd, you know?

anyways, this game means alot to me. quick backstory: i started playing it in december 2023, but i really got into it in early and late 2024. in june 2024, i got it on cd for 30 bucks. best 30 bucks ive ever spent.

enough filler, heres the actual review:

About

i have returned once AGAIN. i used to have 2 accounts (that i deleted because of lack of motivation) but now ive returned to give this reviewing stuff a spin again. ill review every album in my cd collection (and oh boy does that grow fast). i like alot of genres but im interested in rock, metal, and their subgenres. i do occasionally dwell into other genres but i like those 2 right now.
