JPEGMAFIA - I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR YOU
87

at least take me out to dinner first

Ok real talk, during the rollout for this album, I was expecting it to be Peggy’s worst yet. I didn’t love either of the singles, but man, ‘SIN MIEDO’ really grew on me and ‘don’t rely on other men’ was vastly improved in the album version’. The rest of this album is JPEGMAFIA operating at top notch. The run of the first five tracks here is legendary, from the absolutely off-the-walls first two tracks to the ... read more

Chat Pile - Cool World
97

I didn’t think I was gonna love an album this uncharacteristically heavy for my usual tastes but goddamn was I wrong.
Something that isn’t really talked about with this album is its catchiness: the riffs on this album are often disgusting and heavy, but they get in your mind and don’t get out. Combined with a drummer that can go from absolutely pummeling the listener to laying down a slow indie rock beat, a foundation is laid for the band to do most anything and still make it ... read more

The Smile - Cutouts

me when I smile 😊
me when I listen to the smile 😊
me when foreign spies is very pretty and instant psalm and bodies laughing remind me of A Moon Shaped Pool and zero sum and especially the slip are bangers, the latter of which combines big synths and angular guitar riffs and spring box reverb on the drums to create a pretty amazing instrumental palette and might be my favorite song by them 😊
me when colours fly and eyes & mouth scratch the art rock itch and Thom Yorke sounds great ... read more

Tommy Richman - COYOTE
70

COYOTE is an RnB album with a lot of cool ideas, and a very very intriguing sound palette. From the guy that made “Million Dollar Baby”, it makes sense that the production is very old-school hip-hop inspired, and it works well! The production is definitely one of my favorite parts of the album. This album is not super consistent in quality: you either get an RnB song with a solid chorus and great vocals, a fun and decently enough written hip-hop track, or every once in a while, a ... read more

Jamie xx - In Waves
70

I was a little disappointed by this album. At times, it’s got great and groovy vocal chops (“Baddy on the Floor”) and at others we have nice guest vocals (“Waited All Night”) but a lot of these songs sound like they’re just adhering so much to the club music formula while either being corny or just not interesting/catchy enough to justify the formula. I don’t care much for songs like “Life” for this exact reason. The instrumentals ... read more
