Wow, this has serious top 10 AOTY potential. The fact that Bull Believer essentially starts off the album is crazy too.
My brain was hurting by the end of this. Not all of the music was terrible, it was just way too long.

Wow, this was definitely better than anticipated. Dealer and Nectar of the Gods are two of my favorite Lana songs period.
Don't think I like it quite as much as Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill, but it's still a really great project.

Sweet album. Not as lyrically complex as some of her other albums, but the sound and messages are still very appealing. If you like Marvin Gaye and haven't heard much Laura Nyro, you should really check her out.

Was actually into the opening track (which didn't even have vocals) and the second track was good at first, but this whole project is just messy/boring/awkward, whatever you wanna say. Just not a great moment for the band.

Some really great moments, and some others that are drawn out too long or have an underwhelming mix. The first two tracks and Broken are great, as well as Control which is an absurdly sweet song. I might have enjoyed a little bit more instrumental variation on Broken, but the lyrics absolutely hit me.
Absolute banger. Paramore has never been a subtle band, so I'm glad that the explosive sound matched the explosive lyrics. Overall, I think that made the song flow a little better than This Is Why. Count me in for the album bc it's gonna be another really good album from the band.
This is a project I can only describe as raw. The vocals were pretty sick, which might just be because of the Scottish accent. Also, the use of sax in these heavy metal soundscapes was very tasteful. The lyrics were also depraved and dreary in the best possible way.
Most of the political commentary here is very one note, but when this is just trying to be fun and groovy, it is very successful at that.

"@Sgt_PuRpLe doesn't sound remotely like the Beatles, but...quality-wise I don't think there is much of a discrepancy when compared to their early work"
On Sammy Rae & The Friends - Chapter One
"Yeah, but that's not to say any of these songs aren't technically 90s. Just kinda a mix of my enjoyment and what I appreciated. My mom likes this group a lot and I honestly wasn't expecting to like it this much, but I definitely appreciated the dynamic nature of the vocals+instrumentals bc you don't find that often. I guess it just comes down to I don't think any of the songs are currently going to sit with me as favorite songs and I would only give songs as high as a 90 if they were relatively some of the best I'd ever heard."
