April’s Albums #23: Nurture
What is real music? Seriously, to you what do you consider real music? Is it different for everyone? Is there only one true answer? Well, I’ll give you my opinion. To me, real music is something that can transport you to a different place, a new world. You close your eyes, and all you can see is the music, if that makes sense. You use real music as an escape from the real world. Almost like a drug, I believe true, honest to God real music can do that do ... read more

THIS IS REAL?!?!?
review:
this is the worst album of the year, and i don't need to explain why. i'd go as far as to say this is the worst album i've ever heard. i don't care if Hobo Johnson is joking with this, it's not funny. it completely destroyed his career. no one will take him seriously after this. his career is dead. it's all over. thanks for the memories, Hobo Johnson. you've successfully killed off any respect you once had. (PS: tracks 2-7 is literal torture)

AAAA OH MY GOD OH MY GOD HE DID IT!! HE LIVED UP TO MY HYPE!! I was slowly losing faith in this project with the mediocre critic scores and the somewhat cringey roll-out but I’m SO glad to be wrong. Jack Antonoff instead makes, not only his best project under the Bleachers name, but a near-flawless project that has a shot of being a top 5 AOTY for me. I’m just so happy he made an amazing project, Strange Desire and Gone Now were both great, but I know he could do better. And he did. ... read more
FIRST THOUGHTS:
i liked it. it's a new direction for Billie Eilish, and i welcome the direction. i think she nails the acoustic nature of the album, and while it's not perfect, it's very enjoyable on first listen. the album also showcases a maturity in sound and personality for Billie. it has me excited to see what she'll do next. expect a review tomorrow.

In preparation for Billie Eilish's new album, i have decided to go back to her debut. It takes a bit to get good, but once it gets there, it's great. Once "wish you were gay" starts, I feel everything after (minus goodbye) is, at worst, a great tune. I also really really enjoy the lyrics on this project. They're simple, while also being engaging and fun to pick apart. It's everything I look for in songwriting. I do think this album at times suffers from the boredom bug, some songs ... read more
oh wow...
Hyperpop is incredible. It's the most inspiring genre for me, it's something i wanna make on my own. This album is so innovative. Almost everything here blew me away. I'm on my third listen and I still don't have the words. This is a must-hear of 2021, and probably would've ran away with album of the year if not for a certain album from Porter Robinson. Bandcamp is honestly an incredible website. It's where people like underscores can find a fanbase, and hopefully, a deserving ... read more
