Jesus Christ, what a mess. I honestly did not think I would hate this this much. Right from the get go, this album just gave me a headache and left me bored. I genuinely wanted to turn it off all throughout. When it finally ended, I was so relieved that I didn't even notice it was only five minutes into the album.
To be honest, though, that is all this album is. Save for a couple of tracks (and when I say a couple, it is literally a couple of tracks), this album ranges from obnoxious enough to ... read more
I probably enjoyed this way more than I was expecting and that I probably should have. It kept me entertained, which isn't really saying much considering it's 18 minute run time and only 8 tracks.
To be honest, there wasn't really a track on here that I didn't enjoy, only tracks that were better than others. It kind of helps that there is a lot of variety on this album, and really shows that X could have done a lot more than he was actually able to do.
Favourite Tracks: Look At Me!; Slipknot; ... read more
Edit: Don't mind me, I'm just fixing the score because I was WAY too lenient on this album when I initially wrote this review.
Original Score: 48
This album's existence makes me sick. Not because it's a bad album (but believe me, it definitely is), but because this is an album that really didn't need to be released.
Nothing on here is finished, and I can't really blame anyone for that; I mean, X died before he could finish it. However, the release of this album is clearly a cash grab. They ... read more
To be honest, I enjoyed this more than I'd like to admit. I kinda expected to hate this as much as I hated another rapper's work, but this did keep me more entertained than the other guy.
I'll start with the good thing about this album, and that is that it kept me listening. It's not really something I'd listen to again, and I really don't like it, but it wasn't bad enough to make me want to turn it off.
The bad things about this album are that, for one, the songs don't feel finished. I mean, ... read more
To be honest, I enjoyed this album. Was it as fun or memorable as their first three? No, but it definitely kept me entertained.
I'll start off with one of the only things that I thought was bad about this album, and that is that, since this is a Gorillaz album, there was a severe lack of actual Gorillaz.
Other than that, there really isn't anything too bad about this album. There aren't any tracks that I hate, only ones that I enjoy less than others. The only thing I would change about the ... read more
I was quite excited going into this, as I had heard that this was one of Green Day's best albums. I was quite disappointed when the album started as the first couple of tracks were just boring.
However, around track 3 it did start to pick up. Really, the biggest problem with this album is that there aren't too many stand-outs. Certain songs are more enjoyable than others, but overall this was a pretty forgettable experience. I was honestly somewhat shocked because I thought that I would enjoy ... read more
Korn's debut album is definitely not for everyone, but for me, I think it is a really good album. Is it the best nu metal album I have heard. No, but it definitely has a lot which makes this album great.
I will get the only con out of the way, and that is that, for the hour run time, it does sometimes dip in quality, sometimes making me lose interest. But in all honesty, that's only for a hand-full of songs.
The instrumentals for this album are great and so infectious. Even on songs that you ... read more
After listening to the god-awful Dummy Boy, I assumed that there was no way that 6ix9ine could have made something even worse. Why did I have to be wrong?
The only good thing I have to say about this album is that the tolerable songs are slightly more tolerable than the best songs on Dummy Boy. Other than that, there's not anything good I have to say. Really, it shows when the remix of a song on your album is better than any other track.
It seems that whenever a track is going to be somewhat ... read more
I am going to try and make this short as I don't want to spend any more time on this album than I have to.
Despite knowing I was going to hate it, I went into this album hoping that I would be one of the few people who would find some kind of enjoyment out of it. Nope. None whatsoever.
This is the only album I have heard where I can find absolutely no track that I could appreciate in the slightest. Some were more tolerable than others, but every song was trash.
When you have to see how long is ... read more
Pretty Odd is a massive improvement on their first album (which isn't really too hard to top anyway, so I don't know why I'm surprised).
Really, everything wrong with Fever they sorted out here. For one, songs on here aren't so bad that they give their listener actual pain (the closest they come to this is Folkin' Around. Seriously, what the fuck happened in that song?).
Also, even though this album is ten minutes longer than their last, it doesn't get anywhere near as boring as their previous ... read more
Going into this album not knowing many Nirvana songs, I was a bit nervous that it wouldn't live up to the hype. I am glad I was wrong.
Nevermind is an extremely enjoyable, energetic and catchy album that caught me instantly. Really, I think it may have been for the best that Smells Like Teen Spirit was the first track, because if it didn't start with such a classic and well-known song, I may not have enjoyed this album as much as I did. But it's not just the opening track that's great; every ... read more
Considering the album was made entirely on Damon Albarn's iPad, this album is kind of okay. It's nothing impressive, and it's not the best that Gorillaz have made. What else can I say?
The album as a whole is an okay yet extremely forgettable and sometimes boring experience. I can't say that I can recommend it to anyone, and I can confidently say that this is the one Gorillaz album that I know I will never come back to.
The tracks range from being okay to being extremely boring. Really, there's ... read more
Gorillaz third album completely perfects everything they were trying to do before. Plastic Beach creates a beautiful yet glitchy world and keeps the listener invested in said world for the duration of the album.
Unlike it's predecessors, Plastic Beach doesn't overstay its welcome and ends before it gets stale. Really, the only song I didn't like on here was Sweepstakes, and even that isn't the worst song I've heard put out by Gorillaz: it just feels underwhelming compared to the brilliance of ... read more
Gorillaz debut album is a pretty fun and interesting album. Whilst not as good as future projects, Gorillaz Self Titled has quite a few really good tracks on here.
With bops like Clint Eastwood and Rock The House, it's hard to dislike this album. However, towards the end of the album, it does start to lose itself. With songs like Latin Simone which I have no idea what was happening; Starshine which I honestly don't know how it made it to the album which had Tomorrow Comes Today; and even M1 A1 ... read more
Slipknot's second album is a really good follow up to their debut. Intense instrumentals, brutal vocals, disturbing lyrics; it really is a great album. Only thing is: it's pretty damn similar to the first one. It seems that they didn't even try to change the sound, making it sound almost identical, and I don't know how I feel about that. I don't hate it, but it irritated me a bit.
This album doesn't have any bad songs, all are good, some are great. However, there aren't really any stand out ... read more
I really wasn't expecting to like this album at all, let alone love it as much as I now do.
To be honest, I can see why someone wouldn't like this album. With it's hard and intense instrumentals, brutal vocals, and disturbing lyrics, this isn't meant for everyone. However, if you like metal, this is definitely the album for you.
There really isn't a bad song on here. The only track I dislike is the first one, and that's because it's just a recording of someone being repeated over and over ... read more
Kerplunk is another decent album made by Green Day. I don't really have too much to say about it, though.
There really isn't a bad song on here (except for Dominated Love Slave. Seriously, what is with Tre Cool and making terrible songs for Green Day?). However, there isn't really any stand-out songs, either. It's just an album of decent songs beginning to end.
One complaint that I do have, though, is that the final song, My Generation, is a cover of a song by The Who. Whilst it's not a bad ... read more
Being a huge My Chemical Romance fan myself, I avoided this album for as long as I could. I didn't want to get disappointed. But with Gerard Way teasing everyone with his new songs, I decided it was time to check this album out. I went in nervous, and came out satisfied.
Whilst there are some songs on here that aren't that great, this album does have a ton of really fun and enjoyable songs. I probably liked this album a hell of a lot more than I probably should.
However, the writing that made ... read more
Demon Days is an extremely fun and interesting album. With great instrumentation, lyrics, and even many guest verses, this album is definitely a must listen. This album just throws great track after great track at you. There are only three songs that I have a problem with.
But that brings me onto my only complaint, and that's that the final two tracks really weren't necessary. Fire Coming Out Of The Monkey's Head would really be a great way to send off the album, yet they still decided to add ... read more
This album was a massive disappointment, mainly because it has the song I Write Sins Not Tragedies, which is a song I love.
I had never heard a Panic! album before this one; I had heard songs that I enjoyed, but never actually sat down and listened to a full album. I was actually excited because I Write Sins is my favourite Panic! song out of the ones I have heard, and god damn this album was terrible.
The songs ranged from being good, to being okay, to being boring and some being downright ... read more

"@ClayDJs03 "hate" was waaay too strong a word for me to have used back then. Honestly quite surprised I did lol. The only SOAD song I ever really "hated" was Old School Hollywood. But anyway, as far as some of the tracks I used to dislike, I guess I sorta just lightened up. She's Like Heroin is still probably bottom 5 SOAD, and Kill Rock 'n Roll is a bop even if it's silly. The others I listed as least favs I honestly don't really know why I did. Two of them are some of the most memorable on the album, and Stealing Society, though one of the most forgettable in their discog, is a banger.
The album itself is still my least fav SOAD. Too many tracks that are just blatantly forgettable or simply filler, and it's such a drop from Mezmerize."

On Ramin Djawadi - House of the Dragon: Season 2
"And Helaena being a dreamer was one of the worst decisions in this show so far lol. It's blatantly them making an "out" so they can do whatever with her character and have it make sense, i.e. her not grieving her son, and eventually killing herself, "because I saw it in a dream.""
On Ramin Djawadi - House of the Dragon: Season 2
"@ClayDJs03 I think (unfortunately) you hit the nail on the head with the writers wanting to double down on the misogyny, which is a shame considering George generally does a great job of tackling the subject in his books, even in the Dance of Dragons. All this whitewashing has ironically done the opposite of their intention; removing the agency of literal Queens, having the men in their lives make the hard decisions that come with war and having the women fight against it and act like they had no say in the matter, to me, that's way more misogynistic than, y'know, having your women characters actually make impulsive, emotional, even catastrophic decisions. Rhaenyra especially is so pathetic this season after that final shot in S1."
On Ramin Djawadi - House of the Dragon: Season 2
"And yeah, that was the very moment in the finale I noped out lmao. Them meeting not once, but TWICE is such a tumblr fanfic moment that I can't believe made it past LITERAL PROFESSIONAL SCREENWRITERS. "Yeah, just have disputing Queens sail across the sea during wartime, not face any troubles along the way, and safely face their adversary and make their way back home in the span of a single day. That makes perfect sense." And Alicent selling out her son... Jesus fuck, idk how they managed to butcher such incredible characters in such a short time. They did NOT care and it shows."
On Ramin Djawadi - House of the Dragon: Season 2
"@ClayDJs03 Yeah, liking it as a book fan is sheer lunacy lmao. Of course the brutality is toned down, but also distancing Rhaenyra's participation. It gets hard to view her as the grief-stricken mother and LITERAL QUEEN that she's supposed to be when the impulsive decisions that make her so compelling in the books are trivialized down to "actually it was the men in her life who made those decisions. She's rational actually." And like you mention, the horrors inflicted on Helaena are so minimalized, but then after the fact they don't even give her a storyline dealing with the grief. I legitimately believe B&C was handled awfully, not just the event itself, but the entire lead-up and stream of consequences afterwards no longer making sense."
On Ramin Djawadi - House of the Dragon: Season 2
"@ClayDJs03 That blog was so vindicating, the contents and HBO's response so bemusing. Helaena killing herself for the lols will certainly be a choice. (I was also so glad he spent the whole post trashing Blood & Cheese. I felt crazy, being the only person I know (even fellow book fans) legitimately thinking that was executed well and not a bastardization on the level of GOT's S5 and 6 portrayal of Dorne and the Iron Islands.)"

"@zzile "point out that its your opinion" - you're on a music reviewing site. Any takes had pertaining music is implied to be the opinion of the take haver. If you need every single criticism to be prefaced with "this is just MY opinion," that says more about your insecurity of your own takes than it does the reviewer.
"state what you consider the obvious, get likes and peace out" - fat load of good that did me. 4 likes in 5 years!
"your ass knows nothing about the way i review albums" - the irony. Let me point out once more; this is a 5 year old review you're seething on. If you wanna give constructive criticism, at least look at what else the reviewer has posted since (never mind the fact you should learn to be a bit more respectful)"
