Xiu Xiu - Girl with Basket of Fruit
89

It's not often that an album will make me feel uncomfortable. Sad? Sure. Depressed? Yeah, sometimes. But uncomfortable? That's an honor that I can only really bestow to "Girl with Basket of Fruit."

This album is brutal. Lyrics often border between poetry and psychopathy, and instrumentals swing between ambient strings and crowded metallic noise. It's not always easy to make out the vocals, not just because of the intentionally claustrophobic mix, but because you're scared to find out ... read more

Before I even start to review this thing, I feel it's extremely important to acknowledge the profound impact that this album and the game it's from has had on both myself and the millions of people that grew up with it. Out of the hundreds, surely bordering on thousands of games that I've played in my lifetime, Minecraft is without a doubt the game I have dedicated the most time to. With that in mind, I cannot truthfully tell you I have no bias towards this album, it's become a fundamental part ... read more

It really is a shame that this album falls off after the first five tracks, as many before me have said with more elegance. But holy, do the first four tracks get me moving no matter what mood I'm in. Everyone loves "You Might Think..." but "Anne Bonny" into "Two Heavens" into "This Is Violence Now" is without a doubt in contention for the three track run that gets me dancing the most. "Birds" is also a track I love here, that bizarre timing the ... read more

I enjoy almost all of Death Grips' discography. From Exmilitary to Year of the Snitch, I've always been left really impressed by the consistent quality of what Death Grips puts out. That being said, however, I found The Money Store to be one of the more, for lack of a better word, awkward Death Grips albums.

I really must be an odd one out here, because some of the fan favorite tracks on here I just cant seem to get into, like "Get Got", which while by no means a bad song, I find ... read more

There are bangers in here, sure, but you know what I find to be better than how good the songs are?

How funny it is!

There are SO many golden lines scattered throughout this thing. North American Scum, Time to Get Way, the entirety of the title track, there's some comedy GENIUS in here. There aren't many albums that make me actually laugh out loud, but this is one that does it every single time.

And then I get to the closer and cry.
Truly an emotional rollercoaster.
