NEGATIVE XP - Bed Rest
90

So this is the last album of the so-called "Third trilogy", very bland name for a trilogy but whatever. Honestly, I think this album is the best of the trilogy, mostly because the lyricism and sounds had an upgrade. For example, the addition of background voices being in most of the songs is a nice touch, reminds me a lot of his old work. Overall this trilogy is pretty solid all around, and who knows if there's gonna be another one. Best songs in the album are honestly Another ... read more

NEGATIVE XP - Gamer 3
70

I know this is a hot take, but as much as I understand why people don't like the way this album turned out, I don't necessarily hate most of it. Sure, the mixing is as bad as Goodbye and this medieval theme really doesn't fit for what it's supposed to be the third "Gamer" album, but I don't hate it. I think most of the songs are alright in spite of their flaws, and I really enjoyed listening to songs like Barbaric Weapon and even the instrumental only song ... read more

NEGATIVE XP - Bullet Hell
85

I guess Shooter's thing now is releasing a new album every New Year's Eve.

Anyways, this album is actually pretty solid all around, with most songs here being completely new, except for Lazy, that one was funnily enough the last song he had released back in 2022 over on Soundcloud. If this turns out to be some sort of military trilogy, like he did with the "Student" and "Gamer" trilogies, then I'm all up for it. Even though this album suffers a bit of the ... read more

Bugo - PER FORTUNA CHE CI SONO IO
85

Bugo's albums have always surprised me, from how each one of them focuses on one music genre every time and how they always seem to have a specific theme throughout the album. "PER FORTUNA CHE CI SONO IO" however, in which Bugo talks about himself and his experiences through rock, acoustic, and even lo-fi songs. This isn't the first time he's done this, since this theme was also present in his 2016 album "Nessuna Scala Da Salire", from which he probably took inspiration from ... read more

NEGATIVE XP - Breakup Country
80

Huh, didn't expect NXP to actually release an album after his hiatus. Anyways, despite the fact that most of the songs in this album are from 2022, he very much picked the best ones he's made from that time period. And, despite how some people don't like the new sound NXP has in his recent works, I actually kinda like it, since to me it feels like a combination of how Gamer 2 and Varsity sound, for example the song "Realtree" sounds like it came straight out of one of the two ... read more

NEGATIVE XP - IRL
78

This EP doesn't have any new songs really, since all of these were released during 2022 when NXP was going against other epunk artists for the drama that was happening within their community. And I gotta say, that might've been the weirdest era of NXP songs, since before it was all about making fun of other groups of people while making absolute bangers, meanwhile this is NXP flexing the fact that he's the best epunk artist, which is kinda true. But anyways, the songs themselves are pretty good ... read more

NEGATIVE XP - Beamer Boy
90

Wild how NXP decided to make a cover just because the song is actually about Elliot Rodger.

NEGATIVE XP - Varsity
90

This is basically NXP making a soundtrack for an underdog sport movie. Seriously though, this album is really good and some songs are self-aware it's impossible to take them seriously, Hugs Not Drugs being a big example of this. Also Champion is the best song in the album.

NEGATIVE XP - Sophomore
84

This is literally Goodbye but only with the parts that made it good. The only complaint I have with this is that some songs sound the same. Apart from that, solid album.

NEGATIVE XP - Goodbye
70

This album is definitely the weakest with its very noticeable bad composition and mixing, but other than that this is still a fine NXP album.

NEGATIVE XP - Mkultra Support Group, Vol. 1
80

An epunk classic. Some of the songs here are pretty short, but they're really well done and very catchy. Mkultra Victim is the best one for sure.

NEGATIVE XP - Mkultra Support Group, Vol. 4
95

I don't understand why people don't like this one. This is quite literally the best out of all volumes. The quality is definitely an improvement over the last ones and, despite how most of the songs are covers, they're all genuine bangers. The Thotiana cover especially is really funny.

NEGATIVE XP - Mkultra Support Group, Vol. 2
83

This volume is very much on par with the first one, but honestly volume 2's songs are way catchier. Except Calendar Girl, that cover is really bad.

NEGATIVE XP - Mkultra Support Group, Vol. 3
50

The only good songs in this are 1965 and Yikes! The rest is very meh.
