Metallica - St. Anger
10
Wow, the masters of heavy metal have created a masterpiece unlike any other. From the unique tone of the snare to the muddy guitar tone. Haven't heard anything like this. Reminds me of you when you were on the beach with your binoculars. You said you're bird watching, but you were actually watching me. I called the cops. That's when I triggered your emotions. You became angry and frustrated about the fact that I wouldn't accept you as my guardian angel, so you pulled out a knife and gave me ... read more

WATCH ME. WATCH ME. WATCH ME. Watch me. They said videogames were bad for the kids. They said it would corrupt my mind. I - I didn't mean to. Don't open the trunk. Okay? Not now. DON'T DO IT. DAVIS? WHAT DO YOU WANT DAVIS? GET OUT OF MY HEAD. MY BLOOD IS DIRTY GARBAGE WATER! DON'T FUCK WITH ME! I'M COMING FOR YOUR CHILDREN! I'M GARBAGE! I'M GARBAGE!
Tyler, The Creator - CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST: The Estate Sale
NR
Bonus traaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacks. I'll do a lazy review of the full album later - whenever I do my Tyler dive. Tyler and Vince go hard in an unexpected way over a bright synth beat in "STUNTMAN." WHAT A DAY WHAT A SONG JAZZ IT UP BRORORROTENDO NO PROMETHAZINE IN MY SODA - NO BEATS BY DRE. WHARF WHARF... this song feels incomplete without the video ngl. Watch the video for that track, it'll make more sense. DOGTOOTH IS BI-MUNCHIE AND BRAGADOCIOUS.. It's okay. TYLER PRETENDS MID-LIFE ... read more
Nightrage - Descent into Chaos
70
Decent release by this Greek/Swedish melodeath band. I'm really not totally familiar with melodic death metal, as I'm just starting to explore it this year, but from what I've heard from the genre, this seems pretty standard. It's fast and aggressive while occasionally making nods to classic 80s heavy metal. It's dark and dirty with thrashing riffs and clear sounding overdriven guitar leads. The album slows down to mid-tempo a few times, but then speeds back up. There's painful sounding ... read more
Stella Explorer - Dorkay House
75
Fun introduction to Stella Explorer's original music. Her voice soars over and dances with the music. Singing in a raspy alto range, she has a tough voice that will catch your attention. The EP opens with a dream pop track with "Exit Game." Following that is "Kill It Before It Dies" which is a spacey and atmospheric dance-able pop song. Then "Gold Rush" shows up as a percussion heavy groovy dance pop song. The EP closes with "House Arrest" which almost ... read more
Black Country, New Road - Live at Bush Hall
80
Beautiful piece of work. Piano, violin, woodwinds, guitar, bass, and drums mix together to create a mesmerizing and soft atmosphere. This is pretty much jazz infused folk music. The mood of it is bright and uplifting. There is a certain sadness in it at times, but it remains very calm and sweet all of the way through. Musicianship from this band has always been great. Arrangements are well thought out and tell stories. This is definitely a break away from the experimental and gothic elements ... read more

You know what's up.

REAL I'm so happy I've found someone else who thinks it's good LOL

I think it'd be even better if the mixing was more punchy, which was kinda why I didn't rate it even higher. The solos on there are fuckin awesome and the jazzy jam bit at the start of Reptile is unreasonably awesome.

RIP to Wayne, he was an awesome vocalist
