Kasabian 4th studio album is definitely a step down for me from West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum but with a shift of focus to a more Neo-Psychedelia soundscape creates for an intriguing listen with some of the bands more hidden gems like I Hear Voices, and overall most songs being catchy with Acid Turkish Bath being the only track i can't get behind mainly because it feels so stretched out for me but nevertheless Velociraptor still manages to be very good

Cassandra Jenkins; sophomore album, An Overview on Phenomenal Nature sees a lot of growth within her sound and her singer/songwriter capabilities, witha beautifully calm and mellow atmosphere, with nature sampling truly gives the record a sense of being in that album cover and it does captivate me to engage and try and notice stuff i didn't listen on the first couple of listen, and with a nice variety of different styles from more ambient, to folk to Sophisti-Pop there is a lot to digest here ... read more
Suffering Hour's follow p after 4 years since their debut, is an improvement on all front, with a nearly 45 minute blackened death metal with a sound similar to the likes of Bolzer and with some impressive guitar tones, and the songs being dense and truly captivating, The Cyclic Reckoning is a highlight so far in the metal scene

I mean, Lore is a very good record by the Heavy Psych / Stoner Rock group but for me it just borders on being great, namely guess although each song here is very good most of them overstretch themselves and contain elements which i feel just pads out the experience, and the vocals aren't the best the band has delivered but with some amazing riffs and a sense of epicness of a grander scale, Lore manages to be a mostly engaging psychedelic fuel adventure.

Edan's most recognizable and best work and a beautiful display of mixing abstract Hip Hop with strong elements of psychedelic to create one of the most surreal Hip Hop records of the 2000's and with some great consistency and the album never over staying its welcome, Beauty and the Beat is a great little gem of the underground scene

I took a little break from AOTY for a month or two, and it's crazy to see that you're still listening and reviewing at the same rate, it's super inspiring!

Aye thanks for giving Kino a listen. It's not a band many people listen to outside of the post-soviet world. They're really popular here and it makes me happy to see someone else appreciate them.
