The Strokes - Falling out of Love
85

What are people on? This is devastatingly beautiful. It's sad to see such poor reception

James Blake - Trying Times
87

Perfect background music for modern loneliness and when feeling disconnected from those around you in a large city

Lana Del Rey - White Feather Hawk Tail Deer Hunter
40

She somehow simultaneously sounds like she's making fun of herself and writing a song for a Disney movie idk

Arctic Monkeys - Opening Night
90

As a humbug lover, this is so great. Fingers crossed we get more from them soon

Oklou - choke enough
85

I enjoyed this a lot and am now obsessed with harvest sky

Geese - Getting Killed
90

Took a while for me to click with it, but boy do I get it now

Sam Fender - People Watching
90

I can't completely explain it but I love this so much, pulls at the heartstrings

Cage the Elephant - Social Cues
82

This is probably my favorite cage album. I like how dark it is and the song themes are particularly relatable. For some reason I always forget how good this album is.

5 Seconds of Summer - EVERYONE’S A STAR!
73

I enjoyed this quite a bit! Im happy to see 5sos push the bounds a bit especially since some of their solo work has been quite good. Not a big fan of the deluxe edition songs

The Voidz - Męğż Øf Råm
70

The good: RCI is a jam, songs are more finished than LABY and mostly go somewhere, lyrics feel a bit more complete (not just a list of phrases)

The bad: I don't mind the auto tune, but I wish the vocals were a tad more clearer. I think the issue is that in their previous work they could get away more with heavy auto tune and lofi vocals because the songs were noisier. With this new style, the same type of vocals causes the songs to just sound muddled

Overall, better than LABY, I think ... read more

Black Country, New Road - Forever Howlong
85

They've done it again! A masterpiece!

Squid - Cowards
87

Once again a stellar album from Squid! Maybe a slight step down from their last but I'm still very into it. They've proven themselves as a mainstay in the current post punk landscape.

Super into the first 3 songs

FKA twigs - EUSEXUA
82

2025 is off to a good start

Mk.gee - Two Star & The Dream Police
81

Im obsessed but I also feel theres some room for improvement, very very excited to hear whats next!!!

PSA: if you havent listened to the live versions of some of these songs on youtube youre missing out!

Clarence Clarity - VANISHING ACT II: ULTIMATE REALITY
78

this is awesome but there is a knocking sound in Old King, The World Moved On which confused me so much I thought someone was at my door

Wasia Project - Isotope
80

I'm really looking forward to a full album by them!

MJ Lenderman - Manning Fireworks
72

am i the only one who absolutely hates the album art?

Charli xcx - Brat and it's completely different but also still brat
68

idk why the JC collab is getting hate, its a jam

One Direction - Made in the A.M.
85

this may be fueled by nostalgia and the recent news but I really felt like 1D matured with this album and is a fantastic boy band album

RIP Liam :(
