Elliott Smith - Either/Or
100

“What is a poet? An unhappy man who hides deep anguish in his heart, but whose lips are so formed that when the sigh and cry pass through them, it sounds like lovely music.... And people flock around the poet and say: 'Sing again soon' - that is, 'May new sufferings torment your soul but your lips be fashioned as before, for the cry would only frighten us, but the music, that is blissful.”
― Soren Kierkegaard, Either - Or
There’s obviously a lot of inspiration ... read more

my bloody valentine - loveless
100

“Loveless” is widely regarded as one of the best, if not the best, shoegaze records of all time, and I definitely agree with that statement. The music on this album is a mixture of noisy dream pop and shoegaze. The album gives off a very ethereal, dreamy, and kind of bittersweet feeling throughout the full duration. The songs on this LP are very consistent, not only in their quality but also in their similarity to one another. This creates a very coherent listen that feels more like ... read more

Swans - To Be Kind
100

Thank ya’ll for 200 followers! Sorry for taking such a long time to write this review. I hope you’ll enjoy it!
“To Be Kind” is a very hard album for me to review. It also was a very hard album for me to get into and enjoy. A very good way of thinking about “to be kind” is not treating it like a normal music record, but as a separate living and breathing entity, which is wildly discousting, but also hypnotising and sort of calculated. “to be kind” ... read more

平沢進 [Susumu Hirasawa] - 救済の技法 [Technique of Relief]
100

Forget that ROSALIA album! Susumu Hirasawa’s “Technique of Relief” is the best orchestral pop album of all time!
Susumu Hirasawa is most well-known for creating the soundtrack for the animated adaptation of the manga “Berserk”, which is considered to be one of the best, if not the best, manga and anime of all time. It’s also one of my personal favourites. But this review is focused on what’s most often considered Susumu Hirasawa’s best work, ... read more

Depeche Mode - Violator
100

This album is a perfect example of a perfect album and was probably the best synthpop album until it got dethroned by Magdalena Bay’s Imaginal disk. I was familiar with Depeche Mode since my early childhood, Enjoy the Silence was my mom’s ringtone, so I was hearing it all the time. I got into listening to Depeche Mode’s biggest singles when I first started listening to music frequently, but I still wasn’t listening to any of their whole albums then. I only started doing ... read more

Oneohtrix Point Never - Replica
96

wow... i can't tell if this album sounds like the cover, but im more leaning towards it sounding like the cover. This album has such a unique atmosphre. You do get the dreamy and drony ambient sections, but also you get these wierd samples that somehow work (the best example of those is probably sleep dealer, though it's not the only song where the samples work very well). I really don't know if there's a good way to describe this record, but i think that this album feels ... read more
