Death - Symbolic
89

I've never really been into death metal as a genre based off the small amount I've heard, but duuuuude, this went so hard.

By Storm & Injury Reserve - Double Trio
93

I think I'll be able to make better judgement when this is on streaming and I'm not associating this directly with the visuals (which btw were also great), but this could definitely go down as one of the best technical achievements in music this year.

Lingua Ignota - O Ruthless Great Divine Director
92

Had to rate this single bc it's just such a crazy song. The vocals in the first half as well as the percussion are some of the best/most interesting of Kristin's career. Also, the entire final segment of the song is just miraculous.

Nussy Andrews - Fuck The Orchestra

"I couldn't find the words so we settled for, 'I love you's' instead" :(

Insane lyrics, beautiful vocals, and super cool soundscape.

PJ Harvey - I Inside the Old Year Dying
80

Unfortunately, this is my least favorite PJ album. Fortunately, she is still a very talented artist delivering a satisfying and enjoyable collection of songs with some of her nicest vocals yet

Olivia Rodrigo - vampire
75

Some goofy lyrics and odd sounding vocals at the beginning, but it's very enjoyable and a promising start to the album rollout.

I used to listen to this album quite a bit but it's been many a year since I last heard it and it holds up. Some of the songs aren't super memorable, but the production is consistently nice.

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation
89

I thoroughly enjoyed the last 4 King Gizz albums (those are the only ones I've heard), but I never thought one would work as well as this does. This album was just a blast from the get-go, like a 50 minute shot of pure energy. It went so hard and sounded great every second of the runtime. I'll relisten before I get too decisive, but this is likely my favorite album of the year so far.

"@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."
