Boris - Heavy Rocks
84

An exceptional experimental blend of metal, punk and even industrial. I think every song is worthwhile and appetizing, though I find the B-side the most entrenching.

Notable Standouts: Blah Blah Blah, Question 1, Ruin, Ghostly imagination, Chained.

Marvin Gaye - What's Going On
92

An album that speaks to a broken world and dreams of peace, love, and prosperity. The instrumentation feels deep and immersive, and Marvin seems to say so much with so little.
While I think the religious tones are lost on me the topics and sounds of this album are timeless.

Notable Standouts: Right On, What's Going On, Mercy Mercy Me, Inner City Blues.

Gazm - Heavy Vibe Music
82

Short and sweet with awesome riffs that linger. Not all tracks are necessarily memorable, but there's a memorable moment on all tracks. Great track flow until the two closing tracks, although they are not bad on their own. Even the ambient intermissions are pleasant and tone-setting.

Notable Standouts: 1-800-Cry-Baby, Cupid's Lonely Son, Pair O Dice, Stupid Motherfucker

Gazm - Fuck You II
78

Short, quick and ferocious. Excellent dynamic hardcore.

Notable standouts: Unicorn Tattoo, Halo of Mercy
