skaiwater - rave

Kinda boring but some cool songs here and there. Skaiwatter production is always interesting but here it sounds a bit less varied than his last album.

Daniel Caesar - Freudian
70

Good rnb. A good voice but nothing super outstanding. This is a pleasant listen. That’s about it.

Tory Lanez - Alone At Prom
65

This is like, mid. It’s not bad and some moments are alright but it does just sound like someone recording a bunch of demo ideas for ana Blum and looping them. There is no bad part really but no great parts either. More listenable than a lot of 80s revival music however so it gets a pass

ODIE - Analogue
55

It’s just fine

skaiwater - Happy Hour
80

Why is this so fire. A couple misses but other than that this is so sick

Taylor Swift - THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT
NR

Oh my fuck this is so boring. I have tried three times now to listen to this thing but I can’t bring myself to finish this. This is so long and so droning that I seriously don’t know how Taylor was able to finish this without falling into a coma. I’m not gonna review this because even for this I don’t think it’s fair to give a score if I haven’t heard the whole thing but trust me when I say I know this wouldn’t be more than a 40. Taylor has a passable ... read more

Logic - Everybody
40

This is a bad logic album that I have no fond memories with so I can listen to this and recognise it’s trash. I think the sad suicide song is still kinda alright but holy shit some of these songs actually suck. This album is boring, this album is too long, this album puts logic strange obsession with how other people view his race to the front and fills half the album with songs trying to convince people he can say the n word and it just sounds weird and desperate. Stuff like this is why ... read more

Logic - Confessions of a Dangerous Mind
60

This is a weird one for me as this was one of the very first albums I ever actually listened to front to back. At the time of hearing this I thought that the title track was genius and the song with Eminem and the song with gucci mane were perfect bangers. Coming back to it today I can’t help but enjoy some of the things I did when I was 12 years old. There is some very very bad bars on this album as well as generic production and some terrible features. On top of that logic continues ... read more

Elliot Moss - Boomerang
65

I normally really enjoy this type of production and having just listened to a bunch of James Blake I was excited for this but it’s really just underwhelming. Some songs feel like they’re building up to something big but then they end and transition into the next. You might think that the following song will take that build up and turn into something grand or give some kind of payoff but they also just coast along and dwindle out. There are cool songs and ideas here but more often ... read more

Yung Lean - Stranger
75

This is sick.when lean is produced and mixed properly it sounds so good

Yung Lean - Psykos
60

It’s not terrible and at times everything comes together but sometimes the vocals are just so unbelievably bad. I get that half the charm of yung lean and bladee to an extent is the sorta shit mixing and I can get on board with that when the song is good but some of these songs are just genuinely so amateur sounding

Blur - The Ballad of Darren
75

david albarn shows of some very pretty melodies and harmonies that we dont normally get from blur and it really works. the production is really optimistic and happy which again is just really pleasent to listen to and paired with davids really unique and intimate vocals, this whole album is a really tranquil and happy time

tuv - stop loving me!
10

this is what happens when you tell hyperpop artists to do more than download a type beat and a vocal preset. holy shit these lyrics are just nonsense, beats are compressed to shit and his vocals are not just bad but mixed like someone played the song through a gaming headset and into a phone mic while he was singing. move the mic way from your face man the plosives make the recording peak every time he starts a word its impossible to listen to with headphones. this sucks. really really bad. i ... read more

girl in red - if i could make it go quiet
65

Pretty bad writing with some inconsistent vocals but production is pretty good with some cuts that actually sound like somewhat original ideas

Bon Iver - Blood Bank
80

Just some more beautiful Bon iver. This shows some early experimentation that shows up more in later work and it sounds great here

Jordana & TV Girl - Summer's Over
80

I like to girl but I’ve always been turned away by the vocals. Idk why but I just find it annoying. So the fact that they decided to make a collab album with someone that has a sweet, soft tone that perfectly matches tv girl production, is pretty much exactly what I wanted. I spent 20 minutes dancing in my kitchen to this album, love it

Charli xcx - how i'm feeling now
85

Why did no one tell me charli xcx is so sick. This was just so catchy and fun. Some of these songs make me fly away frfr. I’m gonna be chemo by out more of her stuff cause this was so much more creative and interesting to listen to than I assumed hearing some of charlis biggest songs

Baby Keem - The Sound of Bad Habit
60

This is just the same song for twenty minutes. He isn’t being weird enough yet. Keem sounds like he’s trying to be unique while also trying to just make the generic hard 808 dark melody type beat that everyone was doing for a while.

Baby Keem - Hearts and Darts
50

Wow this is not very good. I can’t even really hear how he got to something like melodic blue because other than the opening and closing track, everything here is just a bad version of generic sounds

Grimes - Visions
75

This actually manages to not drag on or become boring. Any songs that do begin to get old don’t really overstay their welcome. I hadn’t heard any of these songs or much of anything from grimes so I was kinda excited and I’m not disappointed. This is very atmospheric and these songs sound like if a fairy had ableton. They’re very whimsical and fairytale-ish. There is definitely a very consistent sound but it doesn’t feel one note which I find is a problem with a lot ... read more
