Gorillaz - Demon Days
73

Handful of great songs, but didn’t blow me away.

Magdalena Bay - Imaginal Disk
96

It manages to blend so many artistic elements into something that makes sense without getting lost in the sauce, like mixing random shit into a pot and accidentally making the elixir of immortality. It’s so hard to wrap my head around categorizing this record into synth-pop, new-wave, dream pop, glitch pop, hyper pop, art pop, Bjork, Kate Bush, Cocteau Twins, or Grimes, because actually it’s in a league of its own. It makes no sense to me, maybe I shouldn’t think too hard of ... read more

Nanci Griffith - The Last of the True Believers
80

Good ol' country you really can't go wrong with that

Bright Eyes - I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning
94

Conor Oberst for president.

Billy Joel - The Stranger
86

I used to love this album a lot more with a score closer to like a 97, but I just got tired of it too fast. I wish I didn't ruin it for myself. Amazing song writing though, and easily digestible for just about anyone.

Vampire Weekend - Father of the Bride
68

Drags on for quite a while. It could be perfected, just not up to the standards Vampire Weekend are capable of doing.

Vampire Weekend - Modern Vampires of the City
86

Out of all the Vampire Weekend albums, this one has my favorite production. Insanely memorable and vibrant.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - F♯ A♯ ∞
100

It feels hopeless. There's nowhere to go. No one to talk to. Darkness around you. There's a flame which provides the only light and warmth, but as much as you try to get close, it will roar violently like it doesn't want you to get any closer or else it will consume you. You feel lost and the only thing you can do is sit down, close your eyes, rest your head on your knees, wrap your arms around your legs like an overwhelmed child, except there is no point in crying. Nothing to ... read more

Nick Drake - Pink Moon
96

Hauntingly depressing. I love it.

Lamp - 恋人へ [For Lovers]
91

The only lover I have to listen with is this album itself.

Fishmans - LONG SEASON
100

Got high as balls listening to this which filled me up with so much comfort I thought I was taking a nap listening to it, but I was awake the whole time. It was such a weird feeling simultaneously being wide awake and sleeping like a child. I wish I could experience that feeling again.

The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead
98

She died 2 years ago now.

The Cure - Disintegration
95

What really captivated me the most is how consistent the album sounded for that gothic rock sound to shine without sounding repetitive. It also incorporates that "Gothic Groove" sound from the 80s in a different league from its other contemporaries. Unequivocally well made.

Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited
99

The way this man paints picture so vividly using nothing but a pen, a guitar, occasionally a odd instrument, despite that god-awful singing voice is what captivates me and other people to understand music besides it sounding "catchy" or "goes hard." It is records like these that keep our minds conscious of the aesthetics.

Elliott Smith - Elliott Smith
95

Songwriting masterpiece

Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf
90

It sounds exactly like the idea its trying to push of driving through the California desert with only you and a radio.

Phoebe Bridgers - Punisher
94

It's wonderful, vulnerable, cuts deep, pulls on my heartstrings. Phoebe Bridgers wears her heart on her sleeve. The next great songwriter.
