Magdalena Bay - Second Sleep / Star Eyes
100

one of like 2 or 3 non albums ive rated
these are the first songs in a long period that have made me actively giggle out of how good they are
like
happy stimming on some autism shit

Geese - Getting Killed
100

HOLY
SHIT
GEESE YOUVE DONE IT AGAIN
while geese has been SHARPLY increasing in quality with each release preceeding this one, i think its fair to say that theyve waltzed into 10/10 territory with this one
because holy shit
that was amazing
this album WILL be going triple platinum with ME
definitely my album of the year
islands of men and long island city
are both

ABSOLUTE SYMPHONY
9th favorite album oat

Big Thief - Double Infinity
85

Pretty great to be sure
When i heard the difference between the live and studio versions of incomprehensible I was like "ehhh idk man" but my worries were put to bed as that song grew on me alongside the rest

Lift to Experience - The Texas-Jerusalem Crossroads
90

Holy. SHIT.
Now, as an avid faggot, you'd think id dislike this due to its Christian themes
But it turns out that the Christian themes are so kickass that I can't help but cherish the album for not ONLY the sound but the incredible story it tells
Like
Wow
Its just great man
Listen to it, its like a movie that your ears have to chew on

khai dreams - ABSOLUTE HEARTBREAK
60

it aint bad
but its also not really anything special honestly
i like it because my dumb child self liked khai's older stuff so
nostalgia bonus

Glocca Morra - Just Married
95

HOW. HAVE I NOT REVIEWED THIS ALREADY?????
ANYWAYS
i love
this album
LOVE!!!!
this album
its probably my favorite emo album ever
it has this great way of progressing the emotion as the album goes that ive very sparsely seen replicated
it really reminds me of the wintertime, which im sure it intended to, with its album art and lyrical themings
and i LOVE the winter
me + geniene might be one of my favorite songs ever
overall
very VERY good album
reminds me of christmas

Racing Mount Pleasant - Racing Mount Pleasant
90

Holy shit this is beautiful
such passion in the lyrics, and such beautiful instrumentation. It sounds a lot like bcnr's ants from up there, down to the way the recordings sound and the way the brass is arranged in each song
Its just so pretty with such a new vibe, while also wearing its inspirations like badges of honor. Im gonna give it time and listens to let it grow on me, but this might shake out to be my album of the year

Jeff Rosenstock - Thanks, Sorry!
75

so very fun
its just the music i like and the guy that i like that sings it and his personality that i like
whats not to like
like,,,, like like like like like liek

Jeff Rosenstock - 2020 DUMP
70

its not bad
tracks 1, 3, and 7 stick out as really excellent but most of the album outside them is very nothing
it feels very raw throughout
which makes sense, and i like
but eh,,,

Jeff Rosenstock - POST-
78

i dont get the vitriol pointed at this album
its not jeffs best but its still better than most artists best

The Brave Little Abacus - Masked Dancers: concern in so many things you forget where you are
100

wow oh my god
this is so incredible
like
as much as some of these tracks are kinda unnecessary
its absolutely made up for with tracks like i see it too and born again...
upon finishing the first track of this album my good friend luca said "it feels like ive been put in a jar, shaken up, and come out a better person"
and i couldnt agree even a smidge more
theres a profound sense of hope in some of these tracks thats just so important to me
i love it
6th favorite album oat

Geordie Greep - The New Sound
100

i have ZERO idea how i havent rated this yet
that seems ridiculous to me
anyways
this album is absolutely incredible
its such a specific and powerful experience the entire way
i think the magician is the most moving piece of music ive ever heard
if not for some of the songs being a bit sleepish this would be my favorite album of all time
but regardless
the narrative that the album is able to flesh out combined with the absolutely mind blowing composition and production just stick this as one ... read more

Quadeca - Vanisher, Horizon Scraper
95

holy shit this might be my album of the year
its just so
excellent
i didnt expect something to this caliber when i heard quadeca dropped a chamber folk album
but i guess i shouldve really
anyway
incredible
i will be listening to this a LOT

Tyler, The Creator - DON'T TAP THE GLASS
65

Not bad, nothing specifically sticks out to me but thats probably due in part to how cohesive the sound is through the album
it definitely has cherry bomb/flower boy flavors which is really awesome
overall its just some fun ass music

Magdalena Bay - Imaginal Disk
100

idk how i didnt rate this already but holy shit its so good
i listened mostly to it near the end of last year but ive been picking it up again and it feels so incredibly refreshing
not in the way that its specifically different to other music (though it is)
it feels refreshing in the way that a gust of wind on a summers day does
its such a specific flavor of euphoria thats given through the whole album
also the theming and lyrics are just great
a lot of the music that i love and revere is ... read more

Geese - Projector
85

great album, cameron winter absolutely has that magic touch
it feels a bit less interesting or unique than their later album but thats to be expected
i do love the weirdness with the math rock elements tho

Geese - 3D Country
90

this album kicks ass
it just has so much personality through the whole thing, helped with that largely by camerons wonderful voice and how it rubs up against and intertwines with the genuinely insane instrumentation through some of these songs
me likey likey!!!

Mount Eerie - A Crow Looked at Me
100

this album left me a crying mess on the first listen
though i havent really experienced loss in a major way regarding death
and i definitely havent experienced losing a spouse
the album just has this way of bridging the gap between your experience and phil's that makes it as impactful as it would be if you just experienced the events of the album
the sound of the album is very raw and almost improvised which i think really demonstrates the sense of purpose, and almost urgency with which ... read more

Black Country, New Road - For the first time
85

pretty fucking awesome but i feel like the first and last tracks are quite a bit weaker than the rest of the album
sunglasses is like mind meltingly good
genuinely well up with tears whenever i listen to it

love-sadKID - Growth
75

Indeed it is growth
