Muse - Nightshift Superstar
70

apart from that amazing bassline, nothing really happens in this song. especially the first half is just the same thing twice. still a bop, but not the banger I hoped for

The Alan Parsons Project - Eve

highlight: damned if I do

Charli xcx - SS26

a bit of lily allen and sky ferreira, but very tame

Nothing But Thieves - Evolution
60

this sounds like a song released 20 years ago that makes you feel nostalgic for when you heard it on the radio as a kid

Muse - Hexagons
80

it’s pretty good. cryogen hat a few things that annoyed me, but this is pretty flawless

Charli xcx - Rock Music

70->50 god this is grating

Muse - Will of the People
50

first half is shit from the butt but the second half is pretty decent

Kate Bush - The Dreaming

I think there is a death growl in my pop album

Muse - Cryogen
70

coming from the live version this could have been a good alt rock tune, but unfortunately this turned out to be very overproduced.

Edit: maybe I was a bit harsh, the riff still slaps. I don’t like the production quirks and I think it lacks the soul of the Muse era it tries to emulate.

Magdalena Bay - Nice Day: A Collection of Singles
NR

they should have released this as a propper album with interludes between the song pairs that act as transitions from one sound to the next.

Paula Carolina - wild

musikalisch gelungen, die lyrics sind mir jedoch manchmal zu plump. fav: so ein brett

Grace Ives - Girlfriend

favs: Avalanche, Stupid Bitches

Harry Styles - Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally.

metrosexual, performative male, female gaze whatever you call it. curated aesthetics, tote bags, vulnerability. when it opens it’s mouth you see that at the core it’s just a horny straight guy.

Manic Street Preachers - Critical Thinking
45

the title track is interesting, at least it stands out but the rest kinda blends into one big nothing. OneManMilitia is another highlight, or would be, if it wasn’t so damn short. Makes the whole album feel incomplete.

Magdalena Bay - mini mix vol. 3

80 -> 90 this shit is amazing

Can - Soundtracks
75

The tunes are nice but the weird transitions make the experience much less enjoyable

Gene Clark - No Other
80

A lost classic, and I am by far not the first one to point that out.
Time flies when I‘m listening to this and Country isn’t normally something I tend to listen to. No Other is a top 100 track.

Kraftklub - Sterben In Karl-Marx-Stadt
65

Mich hats irgendwie nicht abgeholt. Die Produktion fühlt sich irgendwie wie von gestern an. Zwischendurch ein paar gute Momente, hier und da ein catchy Refrain oder ein Vers der einen Schmunzeln hervorlockt, aber leider kommt kaum Flow auf. Insgesamt kein sonderlich erinnerungswürdiges Album, leider. Man kann aber nicht sagen, dass es nicht kurzweilig ist.

Highlights: Unsterblich sein (beide), So rechts
Lowlights: Marlboro Mann, Fallen in Liebe

Janet Jackson - Rhythm Nation 1814
90

A perfect record for the cold season, a great mix between dancable bangers and moody ballads. Amazing instumentation and one of the best examples of how to use interludes! 10/10

Tame Impala - Deadbeat
70

I really wanted to love this but the house parts don’t do anything for me and many of the pop cuts are straight up boring. My Old Ways is really good though

"I must admit that it sounds a lot better on Apple Music than on Youtube. I still think it’s overproduced and massively held back because of it. Maybe it will grow on me, I really loved the live version."
