Of Monsters and Men - My Head Is an Animal
80

I really like the icelandic high-pitched vocals. It's a real interesting mix with the folk tunes throughout. The only problem I really have is that this is a very front-heavy album.

Favs: Little Talks, King and Lionheart, Mountain Sound

LCD Soundsystem - Sound of Silver

This album is unbelievably groovy from the second it starts to the closer. Couple that with oddly fulfilling lyrics and you have yourselves one of the best dance-punk albums ever

Favs: All My Friends, New York

Billie Eilish - HIT ME HARD AND SOFT

HIT ME HARD AND SOFT? I hardly know her!!

What do you mean that's not how the joke goes??

Taylor Swift - Red (Taylor's Version)

Insanely high highs and some really filler fillers

Favs: All Too Well (10 min + 5 min), State of Grace, Nothing New

I was listening to this album after the Heartstopper showcase of "Telephone." The first half of this album has relatively introspective lyrics and "relatively" non offensive autotune usage. The more you listen though, the more the brash production choices just kinda end up sounding as Adult Emo Disney Channel as they are. But i assume if you listen to some of these songs independently, it won't really be that bad.

Favs: Watch What Happens Next, Telephone, Turbulent

This album sounds like friendship <3

Radiohead - In Rainbows
100

The album somehow manages to sound exactly like how you'd expect the album cover to sound. Lots of funky drum usage and a lot more upbeat than other Radiohead projects. Seems like a perfect recipe to success.

Taylor Swift - Speak Now (Taylor's Version)
80

Even through the re-record, Taylor sounds nearly as raw and passionate as she did when she was 19 making this. A bit bloated but the amount of variety in this album is kind of shocking honestly. Both hurts it and helps it sometimes -- it's not really a great listen front-to-back because of the lack of cohesion but undeniably has its hits. Probably her most underrated album.

Favs: Enchanted, Mine, I Can See You, Back To December
Least Favs: Sparks Fly, Mean, Superman, Innocent

Daft Punk - Random Access Memories
95

My two favorite French people's last album... :(

This is a testament to House production and collaboration. Every feature in this album pairs perfectly with Daft Punk that it's hard to imagine it with anyone else. It's such a tight listen and it just *feels* like the band's final big album. From the crescendoing finale track to the soft, fluid, modern drum beats found throughout, this album just feels like a last-ditch effort to keep House Music alive. And by god, does it do it ... read more

Travis Scott - Rodeo
85

Travis manages to make Justin Bieber sound good. That has to account for something.
+ Angelic trap production

Favs: 90210, Nightcrawler, Antidote

Tyler, The Creator - IGOR
95

Iger? I hardly know her! What do you mean that's not how it's spelt?

Tyler's most consistent and best album yet. Beautiful jazz infused rap synth beats mixed with aggressive production choices creates one of the best breakup concept albums made. Strikingly relatable analogies and imagery on every single track bring you along for the ride that is Tyler's roller coaster of a relationship.

Favs: Gone, Gone / Thank You, New Magic Wand, Are We Still Friends?

It's like the Avengers: Endgame of the gay 2000s hyperpop icons

Taylor Swift - 1989
80

Literally 1984... plus 5?

Undeniably one of the best pop albums of the 2010s. Incredibly snappy and poppy with really fresh and vibrant vocals and modern, urban production. This album kinda pioneered the genre honestly. You can't really ask for better on a pop album. Some songs do get repetitive and some are duds but overall a massive bangerfest and one of my favorite Taylor projects.

Favs: Style, Clean, Wildest Dreams, Out of the Woods
Least Favs: Bad Blood, This Love

Daughters - You Won't Get What You Want
90

An extremely abrasive listen. This album feels as if it's escaping the confines of my Spotify and jumping out into my ears and violently buttfucking me. The fact that the lead singer is an asshole honestly makes it more scary and frightening.

Favs: Less Sex, Satan In the Wait, The Reason They Hate Me
Least Favs:

Car Seat Headrest - Twin Fantasy (Face to Face)
90

Where's my state assigned fursuit now?

But woah.... this album is filled to the brim with teen angst. It's the perfect personification of "I don't know how to like you, but we're both weird so let's fuck around and find out." It's groovy as hell with incredibly infectious hooks and demonic screaming. This is the one answer to the question "What album would you want to inject into yourself?"

But.... some of the songs do drag on a bit. Most of Famous Prophets didn't really ... read more

Lorde - Pure Heroine
80

Incredibly simple album that somehow feels so full. It's one of those albums that you have to just appreciate how influential it became and what it inspired. The 16-year-old Lorde walked here so the synth girlies could run.

Favs: Ribs, Team, Royals
Least Favs: Still Sane, WTT, A World Alone
