Stratford Rise - Gunshow
100

JUST DROP AN EP OR ALBUM ALREADY PLEASE ILL GIVE YOU MY NEWBORN

Ugly - Next To Die
100

this band is actually shaping up to be so goated. really good shit.

Squid - The Hearth and Circle Round Fire
100

I'm actually depressed that this wasn't on Cowards.

Doechii - Anxiety
0

this actually might be one of the worst songs of the year. the way this song BLATANTLY steals somebody that I used to know (already a 10/10 song) and just does THIS to it makes me super duper sad. the lyrics just feel so corny to me.

Phish - Junta
100

not only a fun as hell record but also a really nice sounding album as well. for the longest time I never really gave a shit about phish except for like one song (rift). but then i heard the divided sky on my mom's car playlist and I really liked it so I decided to hear what else this album had to offer. really jazzy and easy-going experience. amazing jam sessions after amazing jam sessions.

favorite tracks: fee, you enjoy myself, esther, the divided sky, david bowie, fluff's ... read more

Injury Reserve - By the Time I Get to Phoenix
90

very depressing album not only sonically but also lyrically. really sad album. the beats sound like they're on the verge of a mental breakdown. I really like that this album samples shit from the fall and black midi. even though this is the first album from injury reserve that I've listened (I probably should've listened to their previous albums before this but whatever), this is amazing. R.I.P. Groggs btw.

favorite tracks: outside, ss san francisco, top picks for you, knees, ... read more

Yes - Relayer
100

this is just pure talent being displayed over here. genuinely impressive shit. the songs sound incredible. wtf did pitchfork give this album a 53? I don't get it.

favorite tracks: all of them
least favorite tracks: none of them

Swans - The Seer
97

wow. holy shit just wow. this shit is is so grand and insane that I felt a lil bit of anxiety and tension through some of the songs (mostly because of how long some of the were). gorgeous sounsing insturmentals with very unique vocals from the GOATED michael gira. cool ass album.

favorite tracks: lunacy, mother of the world, the seer, a piece of the sky, apostate
least favorite tracks: the wolf, the daughter brings the water

Massive Attack - Mezzanine
90

really really good shit. doesn't even sound like it was from 1998. and plus it has the funny House song.

favorite tracks: almost all of them
least favoritr tracks: excange, man next door, (exchange)

Black Country, New Road - Forever Howlong
87

this album is such a different thing than the previous stuff on for the first time and ants from up there but it's really good. I'm a lil sad that the previous singer isn't in the band anymore but the new singers are really good and add a lot to the instrumentals of this album. beautiful songs with beautiful production.

favorite tracks: besties, socks, happy birthday, for the cold country, nancy tries to take the night, goodbye (don't tell me)
least favorite tracks: mary, ... read more

Touchdown Jesus - It’s All Feast or Famine
95

this is probably one of my favorite eps of the year. MORE PEOPLE NEED TO LISTEN TO THIS!!!!

favorite tracks: all of them
least favorite tracks: none of them

Car Seat Headrest - CCF (I'm Gonna Stay With You)
95

this album is actually about to be such a banger

Yes - Fragile
85

really good prog rock. really really good prog rock. roundabout and heart of the sunrise are classics. I also kinda like the shorter tracks including the fish. they're really charming and I like them enough even though they are my least favorites. cans and brahms sounds like I'm some mansion made entirely of marble while I'm eating caviar or whatever rich people eat. I might wanna relisten to this one day since I haven't heard this in some months but it's pretty ... read more

Coin locker kid - The Salmon of Doubt
97

the production on this feels not only weird but raw. it feels unfinished and finished at the same time. it's like I'm listening to something or someone that is on the verge of a breakdown. absolutely eerie to listen to. I love how unique and well put these instrumentals are. the lyrics on here are also really deep on how they reflect this person's thought process while making this album. You want to was a really cool listen along with Rise! and Fools. Splitter had probably the ... read more

Black Country, New Road - For the Cold Country
95

I can feel the beauty in this song coursing through my veins.

YHWH Nailgun - 45 Pounds
80

this is one of the weirdest releases of this year definitely. the instrumentation sounds cool and a lil scary. the drumming is amazing in this btw. kinda wish some of the songs were a bit longer but this is a pretty good album.

favorite tracks: penetrator, castrato raw (fullback), animal death already breathing, tear pusher, blackout, changer
least favorite tracks: pain fountain, ultra shade (beat my blood dog down), iron feet, sickle walk

Richard Sallis - Felix
88

one of the coolest albums that dropped this year. there are genuinely some moments that sound eargasmic. this is also a really sad but hopeful sounding album. the vocals do sound a bit off at times but the passion behind them can't be ignored. the instrumentation is the best part about this with all the synths, strings, piano, and even a saxophone. overall a gorgeous and nice sounding album.

favorite tracks: the kid has gone missing, a song for the broadcasters, the bill and dean ... read more

ร˜neheart - snowfall
90

gorgeous song. a lil overplayed but still beautiful.

Genesis - Selling England by the Pound
95

absolutely beautiful prog. one thing I like about genesis so far are the different synth sounds. they're cool as hell. overall this was a really cool album and it was very fun to listen to. another thing is how impressive the instrumentation is. the guitars, flute, organ, synths, drums, piano, and the singing all flow together really well. and lastly I like how the guitar that's near the end of firth of fifth sounds like it's wailing.

favorite tracks: dancing with the moonlit ... read more

The Mountain Goats - Tallahassee
100

these songs are special to me regarding how much stuff I've learned on guitar. literally one of the first songs that I learned to play on guitar was alpha rats nest. overall amazing album especially if you're into folk shit. and yes I first heard of this band because of a scene from moral orel that I saw on youtube.

favorite tracks: tallahassee, first few desperate hours, idylls of the king, no children, peacocks, old college try, oceanographer's choice, alpha rats nest.
