Static Dress - Injury Episode
82

injury episode is a major step-up in production but its lacking some of the memorability and the punch that rouge carpet disaster brought. it leaves this new album feeling kind of oversaturated sometimes and it gets lost in the sauce a lot i think. some of their best and worst original work is here though, like adapter being probably their best more melodramatic song. i thought classic death pose was the bands most directionless song, one of their only songs that sort of feels like filler

Drake - ICEMAN

the ice man was a niceman now hes hot and cold

5 grammys btw

fav tracks: B's On The Table
least fav: Little Birdie, Make Them Pay, Firm Friends

The Fall of Troy - Doppelgänger
72

what happened????

the first half of this album is like a godsend. its so great and unique and interesting and fast and fun, it built up all this momentum just for the second half to lose almost all of it

second half is trying way too hard to be different i think, and it comes off messy and unorganized without really leaving much of a mark. it kind of sounds like something off of an i set my friends on fire album. it leaves me wondering why? why the sudden switch up? maybe im missing ... read more

The Beatles - Abbey Road
90

2 years on AOTY + 300th review

What is there to say about Abbey Road that hasn't already been said about a billion times. There is a reason this is THE most iconic album in history, and that reason is that it's just a really good album. ESPECIALLY for 1969. Is it as good as most people make it out to be? No, not really. However this is probably the most culturally significant album ever created, and for that i think it deserves to be among the greatest albums of all time. Everyone ... read more

Linkin Park - LIVING THINGS
67

linkin parks 'fall from grace' isnt really all that dramatic

sure this album isnt nowhere near as exciting, memorable or interesting as their first two (or even their first three), but there is still a lot that deserves to be talked about in this album, like how it dares to be something different even after the mixed opinions of their last album

that doesnt completely redeem it. this is the weakest in terms of lyricism, vocals, melodies, and ESPECIALLY rapping. its still solely ... read more

Basement - WIRED
61

this probably isnt a great first impression from a band ive only heard good things about

for the most part this is so... boring? it feels pointless, recycled. almost every song sounds like bland filler, like something you can put on for background noise while you clean or cook or something. but it could also catch you off guard with simple and sweet melodies and catchy riffs

it just needs its own identity. i can think of a dozen albums that sound exactly like this

fav tracks: Broken By ... read more

glaive - God Save The Three
77

bipolar ahh album PICK A GENRE

actually it balances them really well but there are a few times where its a little jarring. like i thought the interlude track was so unnecessary but i also loved the singer-songwriter stuff

this is my first impression of both these artists and they left a good one. i hope they make more stuff like this

fav tracks: Yaya Touré, The Front, The Troubles
least fav: Old Freight Train

156/Silence - People Watching
74

analog horror ahh album cover

solid album from this solid band but like a lot of modern metalcore it needs to stand out more to really blow minds

this is just a strong, punchy, energetic and infectious bunch of songs with some twists and turns to keep listeners engaged

fav tracks: Better Written Villain, Unreasonable Doubt, Healing Process (Leave of Absence)
least fav: Intravenous

American Football - American Football
81

this is american footballs best album in almost 27 years, which is sort of a shame because like the two previous albums it leaves quite a bit to be desired. this album especially feels like it doesnt have a whole lot to say. the lyrics are pretty bland and the vocals are nowhere near as energetic as i think they should be.

or maybe they shouldnt be. this album has a great balance between being consistently melodramatic and exploding when it wants to. Patron Saint of Pale is probably going to ... read more

Evan Fong - speed
75

a very very solid debut album from mr evan fungus aka vanossgamer

there is a ton of potential that i think he hasnt quite reached here, but i could see his next albums being a lot cleaner if he keeps up with this sound

and unfortunately its really short, which i think makes the songs feel very limited. but it is very fast and punchy and i like that. not a lot of boring moments and very strong opener and closer

fav tracks: sickening, breathe, flowers
least fav: mammet

tuv - ear candy
30

when i found out the tom macdonald version of taste was better than the original i had to see if tuvs music was really that bad. well it really is that bad. but like not never make music again bad, more like you need to improve on pretty much everything bad

so incredibly annoying sometimes which sucks cause the good melodies are always ruined by the vocals or the horrendous production. but at least theres some stuff worth picking apart, like how i think the first song would be a banger if the ... read more

Dan Croll - Sweet Disarray
51

all it really has going for it is the first song and maybe the second. first song bangin banger it really hypes you up for the rest of the album

turns out everything else is kinda boring slop not interesting at all. but nothing inherently awful either

feels like a passion project that loses passion about 3 songs in

fav tracks: From Nowhere
least fav: Maway, Always Like This, In / Out

American Football - American Football
78

american footballs third album still isnt memorable enough to be as good as their first, but it doesnt really have to

i think the balance between trying to sound modern and fresh but also true to their sound is working a lot in some areas, but other times it just blends and meshes together and it becomes a little uninteresting

i think its good enough that new and older fans will still be interested and satisfied though

but its still some good ol american football, and as of this review their ... read more

American Football - American Football
75

i like it quite a bit. its charming and sweet like their first album but this one isnt as memorable

falls off heavy about halfway through. no big moments or anything like that

but its still very enjoyable, especially the first song

fav tracks: Where Are We Now?
least fav: I Need a Drink (Or Two or Three)

Static Dress - ...hospice
80

its great but i need a little teeny tiny bit more

Static Dress - Nostalgia Kills
86

static dress and underoath produced by the dude from loathe

this album is gonna be peak

at first, at first - The Courage of Shutting Up
70

its good its fine. that last song really outshines everything else without it this wouldnt crack a 7

besides that there isnt a whole lot to say

fav tracks: In Spite of Artillery
least fav: Slept, Woke Up, Slept, Woke Up, Miserable Life

Daft Punk - Discovery
81

so good so many bangers mixed in with a few filler songs

unfortunately those filler songs kinda kill the vibe a bit, but theyre still good

excellent album from an excellent duo

fav tracks: One More Time, Digital Love, Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger, Superheroes, Veridis Quo
least fav: Voyager, Too Long

Maroon 5 - Love Is Like
30

everything wrong with maroon 5 in one album

low effort slop for seemingly no reason. a waste of time really

if anything a song or two is bearable

fav tracks: none
least fav: all

Maroon 5 - JORDI
34

maroon 5 has the unbelievable ability to make 37 minutes feel like 2 hours

so excrutiatingly generic and boring i had to relisten to each song like three times cause i kept losing focus, on top of adam levine's voice

would probably never listen again

fav tracks: none
least fav: Memories, Memories (Remix), One Light
