The World Is A Rough And Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid to Die.

"To See the Next Part of the Dream" was one of my favorite releases of last year. And after listening to this new project I am glad that it was the first release of the year that I heard.

Evaluating this genre is very complicated for me. I like to deal with it as if everything was one big experience, and instead of pointing out production and stuff like that, try to absorb the feeling of the album. ... read more

Thanks for the feelings, mother Russia.

Just listened this randomly because of the cover and I'm positively surprised :)

According to the translator, the name of the album means something like 'Starry sky for those who live in the city'.
A simple midwest emo record, but with a very well done instrumentation and a concept that is simply comfortable to listen to.

"Even on the beautiful days with that beautiful blue sky; In my eyes, blue is anything but beautiful.
I don’t want to feel blue anymore."

"Spirit Box" by definition is a paranormal research device. It uses a radio with a frequency scan mode meant to detect EVPs and communicate with spirits.
And in 'Eternal Blue', Spiritbox shows us the most agressive, emotional and beautiful debut of the year so far.

The Metalcore scene has been getting generic for quite some time ... read more

Everything is about feeling. And sometimes we can find beauty in gloom.

Growing up and evolving as a human being while you grow together with a band is something inexplicable. And after hearing Deafheaven's new album, I can tell you how important they are to me. Nowadays music is the only thing that can bring me a real feeling, and sometimes music is not just production and stuff like that, sometimes we are lucky to came across albums that not only brings really good songs, but that they also ... read more

The sound of hell never been so catchy.

It's been a really long time that I think this genre is just oversaturated and bland, and this is coming from a hard listener of Deathcore in my teenager days.
But I have to say, Lorna Shore just fucking ruled this scene with their new EP '...And I Return to Nothingness'.
My biggest problem with that genre is how uninspired it sounds nowadays, and I know Deathcore is a very difficult genre to produce anything out of the curve. But Lorna Shore finally ... read more

Finally someone in the mainstream understands the term DEFEND POP PUNK.

Lately we've seen a rise of pop punk in the mainstream, but not in a good way. Several artists bringing this genre back and gaining recognition with it, with horrendous works, while bands that have been doing this for years end up not getting the merit they should have.
Willow finally found yourself in 'lately i feel EVERYTHING'; she not only brings the genre back in a very well done way, also manages to mix other elements ... read more

soundtrack from my edgy days

I saw Rebecca Black at a grocery store.

I saw Rebecca at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told her how cool it was to meet her in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother her and ask for photos or anything.

She said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but her kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing her hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued ... read more

"I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)"
- Sylvia Plath (1953) 'Mad Girl's Love Song'

I never thought that anguish and comfort could coexist in the same place, but if I could create a word to define that feeling I would certainly use this album as a direct reference.
'We Are Alive Beyond Repair' comes abruptly, like a punch in the chest, and shows what it feels like to be frustrated and lost, but at ... read more

executive producer: allah

"Human life is a trauma factory."

I'm a big fan of n,n. since 2017 and seeing what this guy has been doing so far is pretty impressive. From a basement, doing all the stuff on your own, posting songs on the Soundcloud, and now look what my boy made.
Trauma Factory is a delicate, diverse, sentimental, catchy and a honest album. Joe has always managed to excel in the genre, and even though he has always produced better materials than many artists on this scene, he never got the ... read more

BONES but cringe

Deep, beautiful and delicate. Simple, but very well made; you can feel in each song the attention to details and the effort that has been put into it. A truly touching emotional journey.

That mix lmao sounds like it was made on a chemical toilet

Best work since Sempiternal. Fuck the genre, these guys can do EVERYTHING.

half of the album sounds like a filler tbh meh

LP vibes

Oliver vocals are really improved here and this is a really good surprise

From the three singles this is the most weak and poorly made. For me the chorus is the only good thing here. And I will not say a thing about that Yungblud feat, what a cringe choose.
