The Doors is a transcendental experience. This album is edgy/cocky, filled with surprises and emotions. Filled with influences from blues, jazz, and classical with a strong sound of psychedelic rock, it is an exciting work of art to listen to. Produced magnificently, every song has a different touch to it. Like “Break on Through (To The Other Side)’s” jazz-blues music and rock n’ roll energy, “The Crystal Ship” has strong art rock influences, and including ... read more

I was excited when Mitski announced this album. This album is like a haunting melancholic lullaby, with Mitski's angelic voice and simple music further adding splashes of country and Americana sound to set the tone of this album.

"Bug Like an Angel" is a very slow and mellow track with soft acoustic guitars. The choir in chorus with Mitski's solemn voice was a beautiful addition, elevating the experience. She talks about how she deserves suffering, given to her via God, in "I ... read more

25 years ago Radiohead released their most influential album of all time with OK Computer also regarded as one of the greatest albums. For this album they shifted from the guitar-focused sounds found in their previous album "Pablo Honey" & "The Bends", instead adding layers and electronic elements. Though the influence of electronic elements only increased after this record as seen in Kid A and other future albums. OK Computer is a conceptual album exploring the ideas of ... read more

Holy Diver is one of those iconic albums created under the band name of Dio.

London Calling is one of the most influential Punk Rock albums of all time. Named after a 1940s radio show with the same name. This double LP is magnificent having a mixture of different genres and lyrics talking about different themes such as social unrest, economic inequality, war & politics. These tracks are very experimental, fusing many genres like punk rock, rockabilly, reggae, and ska making them more diverse & compelling.

Side One: The title track starts strong with an opening ... read more

So many people remember Måneskin for their win at Eurovision and their single Beggin' & I WANNA BE YOUR SLAVE. They were always on the top charts with the amount of reception they received after that. Though with all this reception and achievements they were not able to produce decent results with this record. RUSH! (stylized in all caps) is Måneskin's "ROCK REVIVAL" but they can't justify it, even as a pop rock record. All of the songs are overproduced with childish ... read more

Intro Bonito is a fun album. With its cool upbeat music and happy-go-lucky vibe, this record can elevate anyone's mood with no problem. This album is funky and trippy, with lyrics having a combination of Japanese and English lyrics which at first feels random but have some serious shit going behind them. The first track Bonito Intro is an instrumental intro for this album, with music inspired by a video game soundtrack. Intro Bonito title track for the album, feels like a lyrical intro for this ... read more

Rakshak is a great record with so much experimentation which only elevated the music not hindering its beauty. The use of instruments & layers of them makes it a worthy listen. The vocals could've been better if they did a bit of work on it, but still, in this record, they handled it amazingly, the production of the songs was really good, making the experience more intense & perfect.

The first track Gaddar starts with low volumed "Turn Down for What" music, then the vocals ... read more

Deathconsciousness is a very dark, depressive, lonely, pessimistic, poetic album, representing the darkest & lowest point of a human mental state or psyche. There is so much to it that it always feels like you need more even though it hurts like hell listening to it. The album is divided into two parts, the first being "The Plow that Broke the Plains" & the second being "The Future".

The first part of the album or first track starts with this 8-minute-long soothing ... read more

These are the best 35 minutes one can ever experience. There was this surreal feeling you'll get throughout the journey of this album. Don't hesitate to listen to this just because it is a 35-min long track. So the track starts with this simple yet amazing bassline, with guitar & piano riffs creating a perfect hypnotic atmosphere. Then Shinji's vocals escalate that atmosphere to the next level. Shinji's vocal range was phenomenal, and his vocals were perfect, creating this hypnotic & ... read more

There was so much going on in this album, like SO MUCH. It was hard to keep up with the experimentation going on in this album. Almost all the tracks were 5-7 minutes long, which made it a pretty mundane experience for tracks that are boring as hell. Some songs were good because the experimentation suited them while some felt like why do you need this? Julian did all the lyricism, the lyrics were dark, pessimistic, depressive, and rebellious. Julian's vocals were underwhelming they didn't stand ... read more

The album started with a cool progressive metal tune then suddenly went to the whole DJENT side. The music was exceptional, unique, and very technical but at the same time a bit boring. The second track was nothing but dhe dhe dhun dhun dha dhe (average djent). The rhythm in this album was pretty good, sometimes giving that ROBOTIC vibe to it. Many tracks throughout the record were heavy with a lot of bass and drums creating a great chaotic atmosphere. The interlude song Asahi was pleasing. The ... read more

This album was awesome. A perfect example of how you remake an album. Originally released in 2011 by Will Toledo by himself, recreated with new members. This remake shows how much Will grew as a musician. The 2011 version had a raw, distorted, chaotic vibe to it and I prefer this version because of how noisy, charming, and raw it is. The 2018 version had a significant change because of the production quality. This shows how complex the human mind is by its passion, sentiments, love, heartbreak, ... read more

Drake as usual came up with a terrible-sounding record. This album was forced. It sounded like he was forced to make these songs and stuff them into this album for no reason at all. A very bad attempt to create an R&B and House album. His singing in this album was trash, with heavily autotuned vocals which were still miserable. This album surely gave that Drake vibe, giving what you expect from him. There is nothing memorable about this album. The lyrics were a bit dumb and stupid, and he ... read more

This album is very simplistic and heartwarming. These guys surely made a soul touch one's soul. The tracks were soothing and relaxing. Josh's vocals were otherworldly with that high pitch and good control on them. There's nothing exceptional and different in this album but that simplicity steals the show.. creating a whole other experience I crave these days. Background vocals were amazing and did a good job of elevating the elegant feel needed for these tracks. The tracks also had a particular ... read more

As usual Abel came out with a great produced record. With a wierd Radio Show kinda feels to it. The transition were very good. Abel trying different genres apart from his usual Soul & RnB. This record revolved more around Synthpop-ish tune with some tracks having electro-pop, dance-pop, city pop & disco pop essence to it. He even tried something different with his singing too, his voice as always is very beautiful, on top of that he tried singing with a deep voice in 'Gasoline' which ... read more

Indian Ocean's Kandisa is a beautiful fusion of Indian folk music with rock and other western styles. The way they blend so many instruments into each of the songs made this record more lively and unique, giving an atmospheric vibe to it. The way they used Tabla, Tarang, Sitar, Santoor, and Gabgudi didn't overlap the rock essence of this album. The vocals were magnificent and the percussions had a fairly big impact on it as well, from Ma Rewa focusing on the River Narmada in a folkish touch of ... read more

The layers of guitars shrouded in distortion and noise elevated the feels of this album making it different from any other modern shoegaze album out there. The shoegaze & 5th wave emo mixture was pretty cool. An absolute rollercoaster ride of emotions, the way he carried them in these songs is commendable. Pain, Desperation, Fear, Anxiety, Hope, Loneliness, Depression, Bliss, Love, Motivation, and loop that was heartbreaking. The lyrics are hard-hitting and depressing... boosting our ... read more
