Robin Callaway - i saw an angel in the mirror
96

Robin Callaway is an artist that wears their inspirations on their sleeve. This album as a whole feels like if you combined Boris' killer noise rock style with MBV's dreamy shoegaze sound, the end result is something that manages to be supremely noisy yet beautiful.

The mixing of this album is just how it needs to be imo, everything meshes well nicely, and despite how noisy this album gets, you can still pick out small details in the music.

it feels like phil elverum pours his heart into pretty much everything he does in his music, this album specifically feels like him thinking out loud late at night, reminiscing as well as reflecting on his past musically and personally. this vulnerability really just hits me and has me doing the same thing for myself mid song, add this on with the repetitiveness of the instrumental playing the same 2 chords for most of the song and you have me literally sobbing near the end, the repetition is ... read more

Death Grips - The Powers That B
78

My full thoughts on each album on this double LP are up on their individual pages but in conclusion as a whole i find The Powers That B to b a somewhat inconsistent listen, im not sure how much sense both of these albums make combined together it more-so feels tacked on to me and i enjoy both of these albums more separately rather than together. I thoroughly enjoyed Jenny Death but NOTM to me is just boring in comparison so it definitely brings this double album down for me and a 78 is the best ... read more

Death Grips - Jenny Death
87

Death grips really thrive with this noise rock focused sound, the yelpy vocals work so well with this production and you end up getting an atmospheric hip hop experience through the use of noise created by distortion from guitars, synths in the background and the unique spacey mixing/recording of the drums. On GP specifically is a remarkable and shocking fusion of experimental hip hop and noise rock, it feels like the band is hitting us with everything they have and it gives off a sense of ... read more
