Jessie Ware - That! Feels Good!
79

Surely a good record, all the singles (Free Yourself, Pearls, Begin Again) are up to par with the ones from What's Your Pleasure, however I feel like this album lacks a bit more in quality compared to the previous one

The Japanese House - Boyhood
84

It kinda didn't catch my eye at first, but I'm loving it listen after listen

Depeche Mode - Memento Mori
75

Not a perfect album by any means, Playing the Angel is still superior to this one, but surely a return to form compared to their previous records like Delta Machine or Spirit!

Favs: My Cosmos is Mine, Wagging Tongue, Ghost Again, Don't Say You Love Me, People Are Good, Never Let Me Go

Least fav: My Favourite Stranger

Gorillaz - Cracker Island
68

I like it, of course it's not on the level of albums like Plastic Beach or Demon Days, but it surely has its highs (and lows). It's a 7 for me now, it could be a bit lower or higher in the next weeks

Edit: it didn’t live up to what I consider a 7/10 album to be, it’s a 6.5/7- out of 10 for me right now

FAVS: Cracker Island, Oil, New Gold, Possession Island
WORST: Tormenta

Caroline Polachek - Desire, I Want to Turn Into You
90

I've been listening to this since last night and I'm loving it quite much.
Obviously the singles are awesome (especially Sunset), but there are tracks like 'Smoke', 'Butterfly Net' or 'Blood and Butter' that are awesome too, especially the last one with that gorgeous bagpipe that comes in about the second half of the track. It's clear that she wanted to experiment new and different sounds with this record (compared to her previous one 'Pang'), it shows and it surely has paid off!

Magdalena Bay - Mercurial World
90

One of the very best synth-pop albums in recent history. Well done guys, I love this album <3

Jessie Ware - Pearls
90

She never misses it's UNREAL

Paramore - This Is Why
72

I didn't want to jump into the hype train immediately after the album announcement, like any fan would do, because I was quite unsure about what Paramore would have brought to the table with this record.

However, first single This is Why came out, then 'The News' was released and I loved both singles in the same way. Even tho 'C'est Comme Ca' didn't really impress me as much, I still thought Paramore had a hit the spot perfectly.

That's until the record came out last night. I'm not saying the ... read more

Muse - Will of the People
40

It should have been a clear 3, but I'm generous

Kate Bush - Running Up That Hill
90

I'm so glad people started to recognize Kate Bush. I've always loved her music and I discovered Hounds of Love during quarantine in 2020 and I remember being obsessed with this song, especially the intro.

I can't express how happy I am to see loads of people talking about her music!

Lorde - Green Light
100

one of my favourite songs ever, if not my most favourite of all time. Had such a great time at the Verona gig in Italy last week, enjoyed the shit out of this song when I was there. Thank you Lorde <3

Rina Sawayama - SAWAYAMA
85

great album but why isn't dynasty a single? come on mannnn

Rina Sawayama - This Hell
90

i'd like to see the devils wearing praga in front of my eyes tho

Sharon Van Etten - We've Been Going About This All Wrong
70

slight downstep compared to remind me tomorrow, but some tracks (like headspace) are still fire. Viva SVE

Muse - Will Of The People
NR

Muse - Won't Stand Down
67

OK. Significantly better than most of the singles on Simulation Theory but it's still far from being very good/outstanding. I wouldn't listen to it a lot but I still had a nice headbanging moment on the chorus

Gala - Freed from Desire
100

totò wolff average crowdsurfing enjoyer

CHVRCHES - Screen Violence
86

3 years after Love is Dead, Chvrches are back. I won't lie, I've been a fan for a few years now: I loved their debut album "Bones", that featured a surprising but impressive minimalistic synth pop style and I also enjoyed their second album Every Open Eye.

I didn't like Love Is Dead tho, I basically hated it. It was a dull and unoriginal record for me, with far too banal lyrics and purely commercial sounds, apart from a few nice songs like Graffiti. But I knew the band, I knew ... read more

CHVRCHES - Good Girls
84

It probably won't match How Not To Drown, but it's still a banger. Vocals are extremely good and the lyrics are also well written.

It reminds me a bit of Clearest Blue but also something of Warning Call, probably a mixture of both (sound-wise).
