Arctic Monkeys - Who the Fuck Are Arctic Monkeys?
75

Really cool tracks on here.
Even though I like the vibes on The View From the Afternoon and Who the Fuck Are Arctic Monkeys, I just love the No Buses vibes, man..!!!

It’s so chill and fun to listen to, it just puts me in a good mood instantly.

Favourite track: No Buses

Noah Yorke - Trying Too Hard (Lullaby)
80

damn...
I guess it really is Thom's son

Shallowater - God's Gonna Give You A Million Dollars
88

I’m not really a fan of distorted guitars, but not gonna lie, this was very surprising.
My favorite surprise of the week.
It feels a bit off compared to the album's aesthetic it seems to be building toward, but those distorted guitars add so much.
I loved it. It’s an amazing, very calm and relaxing album that can still give you chills.

Favorite track: All My Love (there’s something about that melody that really hits).
Other favorites: Untitled Cowboy

donaranha - donaranha
80

Adoro a energia deste álbum!!!
Confesso que a última track apanhou-me completamente de surpresa hahaha, mas adorei!

A voz de Luca nunca deixa de me surpreender, e as vibes que transmitem são simplesmente incríveis.
No geral, um álbum muito consistente do início ao fim.

Favourite track: Corta Mocas

donaranha - Ana Liso
95

Sem dúvida, a minha música favorita dos Donaranha.
A avalanche de emoções que me atravessa sempre que ouço este single é impossível de descrever.
Letras profundas, melodias feitas para nos afundar em lágrimas (e eu aceito :D).
Tenso, pesada, intensa e é exatamente por isso que eu adoro.

donaranha - Pele Nossa
87

Música maravilhosa
Tudo bate certo, tanto a suavidade como o poder que transmite.
Gostei bastante!

Arcade Fire - Funeral
97

A while back, I showed my uncle Black Country, New Road, and he loved it. Not long after, he sent me this album, saying it was very similar and that I’d probably like it. And man… thank you. What a phenomenal album.

This is, by far, one of the best listening experiences you can have. It’s such a joy to sit with it. Instrumentally, though, what is even going on? I can literally feel every note flooding over me.

The last track completely got me. I wasn’t expecting it at ... read more

Nunca Mates O Mandarim - Bola de Bilhar
75

Adoro os Nunca Mates o Mandarim.
Um álbum espetacular que vale mesmo muito a pena ouvir.

A voz é suave e calma, acompanhada por um instrumental que não desilude. Faz-te sentir bem, ativo e confortável ao mesmo tempo. Também senti que, por vezes, as músicas soam um pouco semelhantes, mas quando tudo é bom, por que não? hahaha

Dama de Copas é, neste momento, uma das minhas músicas portuguesas favoritas. Vale mesmo muito a ... read more

Cameron Winter - Singles
90

Wow…

My heart feels unbearably heavy every time I listen to this. His voice is absolutely stunning.

Cameron Winter might genuinely be one of the best lyricists I’ve listened to in a long time, and all I want is to hear more and more from him. I just want to cry, listen to his music, and repeat this cycle over and over again.

And by the way, I love the album cover :D my angel.

Cameron Winter - Heavy Metal
94

The irony behind the album’s title is honestly unreal hahaha.

This album feels majestic and incredibly pure. Every track hits you with this overwhelming feeling of something. It’s hard to even put into words. Songs like Drinking Age genuinely make you cry; it’s that emotionally raw.

The lyricism throughout the album is absurdly beautiful. And $0… man, what the hell. How do you even come up with something like that?

On top of that, the album is such an easy listen. ... read more

Geese - 3D Country
87

No wonder these guys are blowing up!!

Their alternative approach to music is genuinely unique, and even though this album came out in 2023, it’s easy to see why people keep coming back to it. They really don’t sound like anyone else right now, which makes the whole experience feel fresh and exciting.

While I didn’t enjoy this album as much as Getting Killed (but that’s just my personal taste), it’s still an incredibly strong release. It’s confident, well ... read more

Geese - Getting Killed
92

Man, what a tune!!!

I’ve been listening to Geese for a while now, along with some Cameron Winter, and honestly, there are no words to fully describe this album. It hits hard.
Cameron Winter’s deep, raspy, almost anguished voice is exactly what you need at the end of a long day. Raw, emotional, and incredibly addictive.

This is one of those albums you have to sit down with, relax, and let it play from start to finish. No skipping. Just feeling it.
It’s intense, emotional, and ... read more

Nas - Illmatic
85

This is easily the chillest hip hop album I’ve ever heard in my life. It has that I don’t give a f** energy, but in the best way possible. It’s so smooth and relaxing that you just end up vibing the whole time.

The only reason I’m not giving it a higher score is that, over time, the tracks start to blend together. Nothing really stands out because everything has a very similar sound. That said, they’re all great and super catchy.

Favourite: REPRESENT

The Strokes - Future Present Past
65

Wasn’t expecting
This EP is really worth listening to.
Like, seriously, what was going on with the band when they made “Oblivious” and “Threads of Joy”???
COME OOOON.

It’s so relaxing and comforting, but at the same time very rhythmic, it just works.

Really good overall. If you haven’t listened to it yet, you definitely should.
I didn’t rate it higher because, in my opinion, the first and last tracks aren’t as strong.

Favorite: ... read more

82

So nice to hear, oh my god.

I absolutely love Julian Casablancas’ voice on this. That gritty, crappy mic effect somehow sounds amazing better and better the more you listen.

The way the sound is pushed beyond what it’s “supposed” to be just makes you want to jump, dance, and sing along without thinking.

This album also feels like the end of something. Like when you were a kid and school finally ended and everyone was happy… but it’s not exactly that. It ... read more

The Strokes - The New Abnormal
95

This album feels like the perfect ending of a movie, u know what I’m saying??
The kind where the screen goes black but ur still sitting there processing everything.

It really puts me through a story.
Like those late-night drives with a friend where u spend 5 hours straight just talking about life and somehow it doesn’t feel like time passed at all.

Everything sounds clean and smooth, but there’s this quiet sadness underneath like Julian Casablancas is tired but still trying ... read more

Black Country, New Road - For the first time
84

Such a Vibe
This album is pure chaos in the best way possible.
It’s so fun to listen to, u can dance, u can go nuts, u can also suddenly stare at the wall thinking about life.

The mixed-up instruments feel messy but in a genius way, like everyone is about to fall apart, and somehow it still works.
Every song builds tension and then just explodes emotionally. It’s catchy, stressful, dramatic, and beautiful all at once.

It really feels like your first time listening to a band that ... read more

Black Country, New Road - Forever Howlong
80

This album is incredibly soothing to listen to.
It makes you feel relaxed, brings you to tears, and gives you that sense of being complete, you know?

It’s sad that Isaac Wood left the band due to health issues, I really hope he’s doing well.
He’s extremely talented.
It sounds beautiful and honestly makes me feel like I’m in heaven.

Favorite track: For the Cold Country
Other favorites: Two Horses, The Big Spin, Socks, Mary, Happy Birthday, Nancy Tries to Take the Night

Black Country, New Road - Ants From Up There
100

OH MY GOODNESS
Yes. It is. 100/100 album, oh my goooooood.

Without a doubt, this is one of the most beautiful things I’ve listened to in a long time.
This album feels like that drunk 3 a.m. conversation with your best friend, when you start rethinking every single life choice you’ve ever made. You’re just there, crying your eyes out… the pain, the agony, the frustration, it’s all so painfully relatable it almost doesn’t make sense.

“The Place Where ... read more

Radiohead - The Bends
92

My heart is broken
I can’t even fully describe what this album does to a person… my goodness.

Thom’s brokenhearted voice in A Nice Dream, the melancholy beauty of Fake Plastic Trees, the fragility in Bullet Proof… I Wish I Was and Street Spirit (Fade Out).
Everything hits with a sadness so deep that it feels like the music somehow knows what you’re going through. It’s the same feeling as looking into someone’s face and suddenly understanding exactly ... read more
