Bold, groovy, and bursting with life even as it wrestles with death, identity, and disconnection.
Highlights:
*Reflektor – dancefloor bliss with a beating heart.
*Flashbulb Eyes – digital-age paranoia never sounded so catchy.
*Here Comes the Night Time – privilege in a carnival mask.
*Normal Person – gritty, loud, no-nonsense anthem.
*It’s Never Over (Oh Orpheus) – guitar driven stunner.
Skips:
*Supersymmetry – dreamy outro, but more of a fade-out ... read more
A must hear for fans of heavy psych, stoner rock, or anything that lives between a garage and another dimension. Almost every track delivers.
Highlights:
*The Pull – mosh pit-ready energy, pure adrenaline.
*Colossus I II III – psych-stoner perfection, built for repeat plays.
*Upheaval – bass-heavy closer that sticks the landing.
Skips:
*Happiness Relay – short, solid, but a little redundant.
*Secluded – lighter shift in tone, not bad, just not as gripping.
Usual cocktail of disco, synth-pop, and breezy grooves. It leans a bit too hard on their familiar formula and drifts into background music territory.
Highlights:
*Pareidolies - light, fun, and totally kitchen dance-worthy.
*The Mirror - retro disco magic with Donna Summer vibes.
*Petite Étoile - classic Polo groove, plus Beth Ditto’s feature adds flair.
Skips:
*22:23 - flat and forgettable.
*Bluetopia - too airy, not enough to hold onto.
*Laszlo - background tier but totally ... read more
A moody slow burn of blues, psych, and soul. It's a cohesive album, and a solid late-night listen.
Highlights:
*BLACK OPPS - dark, groovy, and hypnotic. Head-nod certified.
*SPEAKING WITH THE DEAD - psych-tinged and haunting.
*SHOW AND TELL - fun instrumentation, trumpet + acoustic combo hits right.
*SAME KIND OF LONELY – smooth transitions and subtle piano touches give it weight.
Skips:
*HEAVY ON MY MIND – pleasant but forgettable.
*HOPE FOR THE NIGHT TIME - catchy-ish, but ... read more
Most of the album sits in the “fine but forgettable” zone. Solid instrumentals, but the vocals often fall short of the emotion or energy the album aims for.
Highlights:
*The Fall - absolutely fantastic, fully-formed, repeat-worthy.
*Words Lost Meaning - solid groove, replayable.
*That Feeling - everything clicks.
Skips:
*Trailing A Wing - drifts by without leaving a mark.
*Swallow - cool vibe, but monotone vocals drag it down.
*Love of Country - pitchy vocals undercut the ballad.
Loud, brash and drenched in sarcasm. The energy is there across the board, and the themes hit the mark, but lyrically, it doesn't add much depth beyond "the thing is bad."
Highlights:
*Love - their most fully-formed track.
*Bad Apple - punchy and replayable.
*You're Not From Around Here - groovy and energetic start to finish.
Skips:
*Big Dick Energy - runs out of steam fast.
*Filthy Rich Nepo Baby - nothing new added to the mix.
*Cuntology 101 - fun beat, lyrics fall flat.
A great blend of disco, pop, and dancefloor darkness. Starts off incredibly strong, but there's a noticeable dropoff in the second half.
Highlights:
*Abracadabra - pure fire, instant classic.
*Garden of Eden - infectious and punchy.
*Disease - dark, high-energy, go-to banger.
*Shadow of a Man - sleek synths, very danceable.
Skips:
*How Bad Do You Want Me - leans too pop, TSwift vibes not landing.
*Blade of Grass - mopey.
*Kilah & Vanish Into You - forgettable filler.
Moody slow burn. It’s a mixed bag of art pop, slow builds, and shadowy synth ballads. Not an end-to-end listen, but there are some standout tracks.
Highlights:
*Megaloner - 80s-laced synth groove, super replayable.
*Canopy of Eden - straight up banger, peak emotional weight.
*Truth - don't know what's being said, but it grooves.
Skips:
*Anthem & Skeleton Key - slow, heavy, and not very replayable.
Pleasant but forgettable. It has a few standouts but a bit of a drip from their previous albums.
Highlights:
*Schmetterling - certified banger.
*One More Trip Around the Sun - bright, repeat-worthy anthem.
*Bad News - moody curveball with Damien Jurado vibes.
Skips:
*If You Know You Know - snoozy filler.
*Drumming Woman - more of the same, but duller.
Really good blend of soul, psych, and swagger. It has a smooth and consistent vibe.
Highlights:
*One Foot - total standout, hypnotic and addictive.
*Green - deep, soulful energy.
*Watcha Mean - catchy with great presence.
*Raw - smoldering, almost great.
Skips:
*Glory - chill, but a little too background.
Solid psych album - part jam session, part dance floor detour. It’s not flawless, but the high points deliver.
Highlights:
- Zuluf B (reprised) - pure psych rock fire.
- Midnight Sweat - silky, slinky, on repeat.
- Gizli - irresistible groove and killer bogos.
- Bak Gor - bass-led jam with sweet transitions.
Skips:
- Tisladi - forgettable.
- Zuluf Dokulmus - doesn’t leave a mark.
