The Avalanches - Since I Left You
92

“Get a drink, have a good time now, welcome to paradise!” Look closely at the cover art for Australian group the Avalanches’ electrifying 2000 debut Since I Left You - inspect the cloudy teal brushstrokes and dark figures - and you’ll see people on boats in the ocean, ostensibly embarking upon some sort of wonderful journey to an unknown somewhere. And ultimately, SILY is an album of journeys. Constructed using approximately 3,500 samples of all different genres from ... read more

Bladee - Eversince
63

Eversince is one of the greatest albums ever made. Bladee dropped a true masterpiece with this one. The cold, futuristic, and beautiful production mixed with Bladees pain-filled voice creates one of the most bone-chilling and unique experiences in music ever. The album is very emotional with Bladee talking about sad stuff. The line that hit me the most is "I've been to hell and back from 20 stacks" Damn that's powerful. I also really like the line "You don't know who I am I'm a ... read more

Slayer - South of Heaven
51

Ah, yes. Slayer’s South of Heaven, the more melody-oriented version of its older brother, Reign in Blood. When I came back to this album for the first time in a good couple of months, I was really hoping to enjoy it as I previously had, and I did. However, after what seemed like only a couple of listens I found the album quickly growing off of me. I came to a realization that, while there were some great tracks on this album, South of Heaven was mostly what seemed like just a bunch of ... read more

Mogwai - Young Team
79

Young Team is the debut studio album from the Scottish post-rock
group Mogwai. The most important word in that sentence is
Scottish, everything about this album (despite what the title of the
the first track, yes! I am a long way from home, would have you
believe) reminds me of my homeland, and more specifically, of
Glasgow, the city in which I have lived my whole life. Everything
from the sound of the train departing on Radar Maker (which is
undoubtedly one of the loved, but famously ... read more

George Benson - Breezin'
70

I can’t think of any other way to describe George Benson’s 1976 album ‘Breezin’ anything but completely and utterly divine. Yes, I know how pretentious that sounds, but that is truly the way it feels listening to this project.

This is not a purist’s jazz record by any means, nor does it necessarily have an inherent deeper meaning past that of its surface level, but never does it claim to. This album is, to be blunt, 40 minutes of pure guitar mastery. Never is ... read more
