Spotify autoplay played Damaged Goods after the last song, which was extremely refreshing after listening to basically the same Punk song fourteen times. Blitzkrieg Bop is fantastic, but everything onwards is super by-the-numbers largely uncreative Punk Rock. Perhaps revolutionary, but when you get hit with Loudmouth which sounds literally identical to the last song, it's unsuprising how time has not been kind to 'Ramones'.

One of the coolest albums I've heard all year. Blood and Thunder is an incredible tonesetter and the rest of the album is just jampacked with aswesome riffs, fanatstic drumming and epic songwriting. Also happens to have the coolest album cover of all time .

This album has basically been unavoidable online, which is unsurprising for an album entirely centered around the concept of the internet. Musically, I Love My Computer has the concept as Brat, which has been pointed out a lot before. I feel, however, that the execution is actually fairly unique compared to Brat. Where Charli focused more on the pop hooks, Ninajirachi focuses completely in on the production and those delicious drops. Very consistent in terms of quality as well.

Earl Sweatshirt proves again that he's an excellent artist, but makes music that just isn't really for me. The production choices, the delivery, the lyrical qualities. It's all very close to something I'd enjoy heavily. Guess I'll have to settle with enjoying the project a fine amount.

This is a pretty consistent and great Metal record overall. The riffs are decent, the vocals a bit inconsistent at points, but still fine overall and the atmosphere and sound is fantastic. However, in-between all these great songs is genuine all-timer. That being House of Flies, an obvious Metal classic that holds up today and stands head and shoulders above the rest of the album.

Super creative and very camp. 'A' brings a lot to the table, from heavy breakbeats to funky disco grooves. Some of it's kinda bad, but always in a fun way, and the highlights are straight up revolutionary.

The maximalism, the grandiosity, the ambition. It is all very admirable what Quadeca is doing here on this album. I do feel, however, despite how great the album is overall, that he still has a lot to prove both as a vocalist and songwriter. The vocals are fun and bubbly in places, but often a bit too overdone and unapproachable for me. GODSTAINED and MONDAY prove he can write a compelling song structurally and melodically, but this solidity felt in these lead singles is sorely lacking in the ... read more

Of course this is growing on me
Ya knew it would

Some of the most refreshing edm I've heard all year. There is literally a cheesy festival prog house track on here and it goes insanely hard. Voyager is my personal favourite due to its immaculate atmosphere.

More ambitious than his last project, McKinley dixon sacrifices simple but effective hooks for more elaborate compositions. While less snappy than BPJ, Magic, Alive! is still an amazing bunch of Jazz Rap tracks.

Very good effort from Simz. Less jazzy and more rock oriented which is a very welcome switchup. Lotus proves once again how she is amongst the best in the hip hop landscape right now.

I'm very glad to own this psysically. Individually the tracks might not be always something special, but they flow so well into eachother, and the entire package is presented to damn well that it makes the truly standout moments even greater.

Similar to what Lil Yachty did back with Let's Start Here, Miley Cyrus arranges the most talented and eclectic set of producers and musicians only an artist of her calibre could manage. I do feel like this project felt a bit more aimless in when it wasn't epic and adventurous, like on the tracks Something Beautiful or Walk of Fame, but this album does finally prove that Miley Cyrus is actually capable of creating a good project.

Of course it's amazing. I heavily enjoyed That Feels Good, and this was ever more critically beloved so of course I would love it even more. Spotlight is an all timer, Step Into My Life is underrated and pretty much every song is at least great.

His best work since Aethiopes. More memorable than a project than Maps, and lyrically more interesting than potentially even Aethiopes. I do think the latter project has more enjoyable and intersting production, features and hooks, but GOLLIWOG proves that billy woods is the most consistent rapper of the modern underground rap scene.

So I actually gave it a shot and well, it isn't very good I think. I wouldn't even call it pretentious, because it's not pretending to be something this isn't. This albums seeks out to be the most self-indulgent, masturbatory, overly theatrical avant garde experimental rock epic to have ever graced our ears and it succeeds in that, but along the way Shearling have forgot to actually make any of it engaging and music that I would want to listen to.

Tonight was already a contender for song of the year, and this project might just be album of the year.

Comparison is the thief of joy or whatever, but this does feel a fair bit worse than their debut. Don't get me wrong, there's still plenty of groovy industrial punk here, but just not really enough. I do think the genre diversions are a lot better on here: Acid Rain, while a bit too long, fits really well into this album suprisingly. Cinderella and Diva are the truly stand-out tracks here, but I feel like on Dogsbody they would be one of the greats, instead of being head and shoulders ... read more

Feels like the direct sequel to Sound of Silver, and sequels are rarely ever beter than the first one. Luckily for LCD Soundsystem being worse than Sound of Silver still leaves room for you to be incredible. While some of these tracks do really linger on for a bit too long, like when that akward climax of Somebody's Calling Me happened for the third time, I was just left confused. There are luckily still some classics on this, and the writing definitely has gotten more sarcastic and witty ... read more

While I love the crossover between Industrial Hip Hop and sleak EDM production, Dead Channel Sky is just a bit too bloated with underbaked tracks. There are still really excellent songs here, and for a five year wait there's certaintly worse stuff out there... Still, I expected a bit more, even if what we got is still great.
