Sonnyjim & The Purist - White Girl Wasted

the worst album art of the year in all honesty, it does not reflect the boom bap vibes of the album at ALL. it means i have to look at it all the time because i REALLY LIKE THIS UGGGGHHHHH

2. Barz Simpson - 5.0 & SOTY
3. Doc Ellis - 5.0
5. Does Mushrooms Once - 4.5

Yeat - Lyfë

this genre is too new for anybody except for Carti to do it okay.

this album feels like i'm a 16 year old in 2023 and have a really bad haircut and wear bucket hats and don't know how to express my emotions to a therapist except through my nail color, and there's a baddie i met on TikTok but uh oh she goes to a different school you probably don't know her also my dad bought me a 2015 Honda Civic and i wanna sneak to the pawn shop and buy some subs without my parents permission omg they hate me ... read more

Norma Jean - Deathrattle Sing For Me
62

sputnikmusic made me do it

idk man maybe it's just the instrumental palette of some of these metalcore releases but some bands need to take notes and really spend $200 on 20 cheap $10 pedals to REALLY make something sound a bit different, like this isn't bad and there's some admirable tones happening but tell me how this is different like TELL ME how this is different.

metalcore is the deep house of metal.

the album art is VERY nice though.

Russian Circles - Gnosis
68

what's happenin'?

i just got done listening to that Rolo Tomassi and it's like post-metal v post-metal and man this is the Kid Cuisine compared to the five star meal that other album is.

if you want something loud and nothing to think about then yeah the other guy on here is kinda right.

it's fine i guess.

Nina Nastasia - Riderless Horse
65

i think an earlier me not jacked up on plenty of Bandcamp-core singer-songwriter albums and 50mg of zoloft would've enjoyed this album much more, but now i can only say that Nina has a good voice and is a bit wonky with the guitar?

it's fine?

i'm gonna listen to Laura Marling and enjoy it much more.

Wake - Thought Form Descent

PLOSIVS - PLOSIVS

out on the boardwalk near the beach and between the ice cream parlor and the barcade there's a little stage and there's a stage with a decent amount of people around it, lots of Breaking Benjamin shirts and girls that still have a Zune in their old bedroom at their parents house because they don't want their boyfriend of 4 months to know about it even though they've lived long enough together to not judge each other about that shit anymore.

the crowd is digging it, i stick around until the ... read more

On Deft's review of Quadeca - I Didn't Mean to Haunt You
"major props to you for really delving into the how and why and not sacrificing your integrity. i also, like many, respectfully disagree with this take, but it does bring up wonderful opportunities for discussion. i don’t believe that wearing influences on your sleeve or appealing to a certain crowd means the core musical experience is bad. this is something the mainstream has done far longer than Quadeca has. i can, however, understand why that would be frustrating, and almost exploitative. is that where this comes from?"
