Blur - This Is A Low
100

The best Britpop song and one of the greatest songs ever written. Pure magic.

Blur - The Narcissist
80

Another classic Blur song, what more can I say? Based on this and a snippet of another song they played live, I’m hyped as hell for their new album. I’m so excited that one of my favorite bands is finally back, hope they come to the US on tour this time… fingers crossed ๐Ÿคž

Dreamville - Ma Boy
NR

This peace is what all true warriors strive for

RXKNephew - Crack Therapy 3
78

American tterroristt is one of the greatest songs ever made and that's not hyperbole

Talking Heads - Naked
85

Fantano effect did this album dirty

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - Easy Now
80

I don’t know why the reception here is so negative? Are people surprised a Noel Gallagher song sounds like a Noel Gallagher song? I’m just glad he’s back to what he does best.

100 gecs - 10,000 gecs
91

10,000 gecs is not only both a natural and welcome evolution to 100 gecs’ sound, but also one of the most creative, thrilling, unique - and most crucially - fun albums of the year so far.

Taylor Swift - You Belong With Me
90

I wanted to review a good country pop song for a change after reviewing Morgan Wallen's "Last Night", so I'm going to take the chance to review what's probably my favorite Taylor Swift song (although that might change since I haven't delved too deeply into her discography). "You Belong with Me" is perhaps as good as any country pop song can get - from the peppy acoustic guitar riff that leads into Swift's confessional verses, to the absolutely explosive and emotive hook that ... read more

Morgan Wallen - Last Night
30

Having never heard Morgan and always attempting to listen with an open mind, I wanted to like what's (at the moment) the #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100. Morgan Wallen is dominating the charts here in the States right now, and he's an artist that's probably a nobody to the more indie-influenced corners of online music discussion. Plus, maybe there had to be something to it, right? I don't think I'll listen to this whole album, but maybe the hit single off his new 36-track triple album might ... read more

JAY-Z - Magna Carta... Holy Grail
75

“Guns on your Tumblrs” is one of my favorite lines ever in a rap song. Who would’ve known Hov was a circa 2013 Tumblr user? Did he have any opinions on Matt Smith-era Doctor Who or a thing for Misha Collins that he’s not sharing with us?

Menswear - Nuisance
93

I'm going to start with a bit of background. I'm a bit biased toward Britpop, especially for someone who wasn't really even around when it was a thing. For one thing, yes, I'm American, and what's funny is that the same way I'm not super into the grunge and moody alt-rock that had infiltrated American radio during the 90s, it seems like quite a few of the British people I've met online don't like the overplayed Britpop that they'd had to moreso deal with than enjoy. While I'm not against grunge ... read more

Primus - Sailing the Seas of Cheese
86

This album sucks so hard.

slowthai - UGLY
50

on first listen, I'm enjoying Slowthai's lyricism and delivery - the real problem is that a lot of these songs just kind of sound instrumentally bland and uninspired, and as the album goes on, it feels like he starts running out of much to say. I do enjoy the first two tracks, Never Again, and 25% Club though.

Maybe I gotta relisten again because I am a fan of where Slowthai is going lyrically here.

Arctic Monkeys - The Car
70

This sounds way more like Tom Jones than I was expecting it to.

Nas - Illmatic
96

N.Y. State of Mind -> Life's a Bitch -> The World is Yours best 3 track run. Ever.

79

This album fucking slaps, and its brevity is an asset.

Oasis - Definitely Maybe
93

Oasis’ 1994 debut, “Definitely Maybe”, made it clear from the outset that this band were going to be one of the most defining names in British music. While I do prefer the two albums which came after, its raw sound also lends a unique asset to the Oasis discography which you can’t get anywhere else in their catalogue.

The combination of Noel Gallagher’s truly amazing songs like the awe-inspiring “Live Forever”, “Slide Away”, “Rock ... read more

Oasis - (What's the Story) Morning Glory?
95

One listen to this album and it is clear that it’s a genre-defining classic. Noel Gallagher at his peak was just unmatched as a songwriter, and every song here (especially “Don’t Look Back in Anger” and “Champagne Supernova”) proves how timeless and remarkable Oasis were at their best. While it’s not my favorite Oasis album (that would be the woefully underappreciated “Be Here Now”), it’s also one that deserves all the popularity it ... read more

Oasis - Be Here Now
98

Oasis’ third album, “Be Here Now”, is a masterpiece and easily their best work - even surpassing their first two in terms of songwriting and scope while fully delivering on Oasis' promise as a band. However, the media would eventually turn on this album because Oasis were overexposed to hell, the Britpop scene had reached its sell by date and degenerated into a sad and scary mess of ego and drugs, the labels behind the smaller Britpop bands had already given up on them (see ... read more

Jim Jones & Harry Fraud - The Fraud Department
80

This album has stuck with me since its release as one of the more underrated rap albums of this decade, due to its combination of great production from Harry Fraud with Jim Jones' creative lyricism and his mix of classic gangsta rap themes with a more conscious perspective.

"Say a Prayer" is honestly one of my favorite rap songs in recent memory, with its combination of a classic Fraud beat overlaid by great verses from Jones and guest star Curren$y. Although it's definitely a ... read more
