Very pleasant listen. Love Karly's vocal style, and the instrumentation around her is put together phenomenally.
Some fantastic instrumental work on this thing, and some really fun compelling lyrics too. I'm becoming a big fan of Lenderman both in Wednesday and on his own.
Loved every second of this. None of it was nearly as good as the title track or Vincent, but I love the writing style and the simple production. Some great old-school singer-songwriter music.
Four fantastic tracks from a band I will only ever fall more in love with.
An EP which feels authentically emotional even despite the lack of vocals or lyrics. And a necessary step for the establishment of the phenomenal artist that Dyl is today.
Some phenomenal highlights and great production throughout. The guitar tones are thick to the point of buzzing and that adds a lot of impact to the riffs and breakdowns. Vocal performances top-notch too.
I am a different person now than I was before I listened to this record, and I mean that in the most positive way possible. Rosalía has somehow outdone herself once again. This is, pun intended, a religious experience. Genuinely soul-expanding, one-of-a-kind stuff. Every element of the production is genius, the vocals are incredible, the use of all those languages makes this feel absolutely all-encompassing. Albums like this don't happen very often.
ROSALÍA DISCOGRAPHY RUN, PART 3.
The experimentation on this record is thoroughly impressive. There are a few moments and segments that don't really fully work for me, but that's kind of inevitable when this many things are being tried across one record. Overall, though, most of it does work, still coupled with some intriguing writing, phenomenal production and great, super versatile vocals and deliveries. That concludes my journey through Rosalía's three studio LPs ... read more
ROSALÍA DISCOGRAPHY RUN, PART 2.
I adore the conceptuality and artistic bravery of this record. It really works its way into your soul as you listen to it, and becomes totally enthralling. Speaking Spanish and understanding the writing is a big bonus too, because Rosalía's vocals are great, but her writing is almost even more impressive. There is noticeable progress here from her first record, but also a shift into a different direction.
ROSALÍA DISCOGRAPHY RUN, PART 1.
Leading up to Rosalía's new album coming out in just a few days now, I figured it's only right for me to finally actually listen to her discography. The first project to step up to the plate is her 2017 debut LP, "Los Ángeles". Wow, what a way to announce yourself. The instrumentals are haunting and beautiful, with a lot of fantastic composition justifying the significant lengths of a lot of the songs; Rosalía ... read more
Such a crazy musical experience, doing something unexpected at every turn without feeling gimmicky. Cameron Winter's voice is weird as hell, but once you get used to it it fits perfectly with the music. One of the most unusual and interesting projects of the year.
You know what? Hell yeah. They tried a bunch of different things on this album, and I feel like the majority of them worked out. None as well as the Ruston Kelly collab, my God my guy needs to do more features on rock songs because he is perfect for this. I like the bubblegum-ish style of the production, too, it fits very well.
This is damn near on the level of their debut, such simple, nostalgic pop-punk with great production.
A significant step back from their debut, with some great moments still present but overall significantly less charming
Some really catchy songs on this record; it's nothing overly complex but I just love how it feels.
This is my favorite Dave album so far. It's 10 tracks but it feels perfectly concise and doesn't overstay its welcome. The album itself feels super mature and tasteful, even by Dave's standards. And Fairchild is damn near Lesley levels of devastating.
I marginally prefer Psychodrama but this album is still fantastic. The production takes a step up, and the writing on the highlights is still brilliant.
Black and especially Lesley are two of the best UK rap songs I've ever heard. The writing throughout this is great, the concept is strong, the balance of the more serious tracks with the fun stuff is great.
Dayseeker remain supremely consistent. I love their specific brand of synth-heavy metalcore, and it is more dystopian-sounding than ever on a lot of this record. Rory Rodriguez continues to be a top 5 modern metal vocalist, the guitar tones are punchy and textured, especially on tracks like Bloodlust. Good stuff.
