The Koreatown Oddity - Little Dominiques Nosebleed
82

While it’s a little too wordy for me and hard for me to grasp all the insane writing concepts, I still enjoyed this album a ton. It felt fresh, new, interesting, and sounds like it took a long time to craft each song and idea as far as it can. Good job Dominique.

Buckshot - BURNING BARN
77

Feels like a more unique take on the usual haunted mound sound. I enjoyed it.

Grouper - Way Their Crept
72

Beautiful, but lacking a little substance.

christtt - deep dark trench
88

Effective in presentation and in execution. I just wanna live in this world forever. The real world is becoming more and more undesirable but this album is helping out. Thanks.

Tyler, The Creator - CHROMAKOPIA
86

I really enjoyed this effort from Tyler. Some spots felt less impactful and more by the books but a lot of the time, the strong writing and production takes centre stage. Especially on st. Chroma. Which I think is probably the best intro track of the year. It sets everything up so well so effortlessly. I loved it, as I expected.

Jack Stauber - Pop Food
64

Eh, I’m not really impressed. I like some ideas but I feel like jack’s voice is so annoying that it sours the rest of the album. The production also isn’t great at masking this. I just don’t think this album is for me. But that’s okay.

SALEM - Fires in Heaven
66

I’d say this album is a sidegrade compared to their debut. Some moments hit way harder, whereas others fall flatter. Which is weird considering how this album is half the length. Oh well.

Songs: Ohia - The Magnolia Electric Co.
92

A really beautiful, heartwarming album that took my breath away. The first real country album I just completely fell into and I found myself really impressed with the production and songwriting. I can’t believe I overlooked this one, nobody should do that.

Bowery Electric - Beat
84

It’s beautiful but I don’t really know what’s going on half the time. It’s like I was just thrown into this world on the very first song without an explanation. Sometimes that’s a good thing but other times it just leads to not really understanding it that well.

Cocteau Twins - Milk and Kisses
67

A clear regression in sound and scope that still sounds pretty enough to hold its weight over the course of its runtime.

draag me - I Am Gambling With My Life
87

I really love how diverse and unique this album feels. It’s got a little bit of everything and I love how it’s presented. Sure it’s not technically proficient, but I just love how it sounds what can I say. I can’t help myself

Paul Simon - Graceland
69

Eh. Not for me. Maybe just needs a relisten but I couldn’t really get into it.

Joey Bada$$ - 1999
75

A solid debut that shows a lot of promise. Both fun and thoughtful at the same time. I liked it.

Backxwash - I LIE HERE BURIED WITH MY RINGS AND MY DRESSES
89

For an album this scream heavy and dark, it’s a miracle that it’s not corny. It hits hard with phenomenal production and insane vocal work and verses. Perfect for Halloween.

African-American Sound Recordings - Erasure Poetry
81

What a strange, strange album. I’m fascinated in how it sounds and the turns it takes. None are expected, but all are highly appreciated.

Explosions in the Sky - The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place
76

It sounds nice, but none of these songs really lead into each other, nor do they have sastifying conclusions. They just kind of feel like pretty noise that doesn’t mean anything at all.

Cities Aviv - BLACK PLEASURE
86

Ethereal ass album

91

A stunning album that I just wanna swim around in forever and ever. It’s an album that nobody will ever get sick of, because it’s just that good. With stunning production, phenomenal vocals, and a great runtime. I love it, and everybody should love it too.

HOME - Before the Night
76

Lowkey chill and made me not really give a fuck. An album for alphas all across the globe. It’s what they hear in their head when walking away from a girl that they made extremely uncomfortable. But I like the music
