The Avalanches - We Will Always Love You
80

it's a bit repetitive, the singles weren't the best and the majority of the songs are very short. overall it works mostly because of its consistency and its features, although what really stands up is the concept of the album and its spiritual atmosphere.

Run The Jewels - RTJ4
90

iconic as always.

Fiona Apple - Fetch the Bolt Cutters
50

someone help me understand the hype......

The Strokes - The New Abnormal
90

the album is wayyyy better than what i expected, although this sounds like the voidz 2.0 (i'm okay with this)

favorites: at the door, ode to the mets, eternal summer, selfless

The Weeknd - After Hours
60

the first half of the album sounds the same to me; same old lyrics, beats, nothing new. the second half, however, is a mix between the 80’s and future pop, which is really pleasant and very promising.

i could’ve seen this becoming a classic in twenty years, if the album was somewhat more consistent and nostalgic.

favorites: blinding lights, in your eyes

Post Animal - Forward Motion Godyssey
80

post animal has a new album, but this time a lot more heavier and darker (!). vocals are nice, instrumental is nice, guitar is nice, everything is nice.

except for the reviews. i can't understand how this isn't rated higher. the sound is completely different from their discography, yes, but its equally good, if not better.

favorites: in a paradise, damaged goods

Porches - Ricky Music
40

i may have a big problem with porches. i swear i try but everytime i listen to one of their albums i have to make a big, big effort to finish it. boring and blatant

Da Chick - conversations with the beat
50

da chick comes back with her second album, this time more consistent and diversed. i like the production but like its precedent, the voice is a big turn off. it's such a shame because she's a great dj and has an immense talent

Grimes - Miss Anthropocene
100

grimes does another yet remarkable work with her newest futuristic electro-pop ‘miss anthropocene’ album, with ecletic and versatile melodies, combined with dark lyrics and an extraordinary production

favorites: violence, 4æm, new gods, my name is dark, we appreciate power, delete forever

Tame Impala - The Slow Rush
70

it's good but that's just it. the singles are the best part of the album - the rest of the songs are fillers and are pretty forgettable. not the worst album but it's definitely not the best.

favorite tracks: borderline, posthumous forgiveness, breathe deeper

EDIT: i've already listened to this 4 times since the album was released on spotify. had listened to the first leak and then the second. and this just keeps getting worse and worse.

‘borderline’ is definitely the track that ... read more

Harry Styles - Fine Line
50

overall, the instrumentals are decent, the lyrics are generic; the voice is a bit cringe sometimes
nothing much to say honestly, doesn't live up to the hype

Beach Bums - Years
80

i really liked the concept of the album

glass beach - the first glass beach album
10

god i wish i knew this was a pop punk album, i wouldn't have wasted 1 hour of my life

40

being ‘a laughing death in meatspace’ one of my most adored albums of 2018, i can’t express how disappointed i felt after finishing this one. it’s not only the quality that dropped, it’s also the production and, most importantly, their unique refreshing style of messy guitars and angst vocals. such a shame for a band that had so much potential. honestly hope they can recover from this and go back to their characteristic sound.

favorite track: maria 63

City and Colour - A Pill For Loneliness
70

started the album thinking this was gonna be folk-ish à la mumford and sounds, but was deadly wrong. it’s surprisingly good

favorite track: imagination

FKA twigs - MAGDALENE
90

amazing. just amazing

favorite tracks: home with you, holy terrain, fallen alien

Caroline Polachek - Pang
50

while i was listening to this, i kept having little déjà vus; tried thinking where i had listened this before and got to the point where i was getting frustrated. and then i remembered: it’s a mix of the last decade pop music that you’re gonna find at your local radio channel

nothing new here; there were songs, like ‘look at me now’ that had the potencial of becoming good pop songs but ended being dull and almost lifeless. overall there is no innovation ... read more
