A Wonderful - A Wonderful
44

The glow pt.2 if it was boring.

Tapir! - The Pilgrim, Their God & The King Of My Decrepit Mountain
82

Feel like it is lacking climaxes across the whole album, the ending is the epitome of this. However, really nice and pretty throughout.

SPELLLING - SPELLLING & The Mystery School
37

This album just feels really empty most of the time, and the vocals are annoying at best.

Quadeca - SCRAPYARD
96

Hard to believe these are just leftover tracks, they work so well as an album. Production is immaculate and dense, perhaps chaotic but I prefer it that way.

Caligula's Horse - Charcoal Grace
72

2nd half really falls off, but really solid prog metal. Vocalist is great, but not so much with lyricism. Guitars are punchy and fit fantastically.

Alkaline Trio - Blood, Hair, and Eyeballs
32

Really generic, boring, bland, and even occasionally annoying. Production is weird, vocals are a misfit, and simply just had agonizingly annoying moments.

The Smile - Wall of Eyes
80

Slow and almost sleep inducing, but technical and beautiful at the same time.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - "Luciferian Towers"
69

Has good sections, but mostly just sitting and waiting for something to happen.

Invent Animate - Heavener
90

One of the best modern metalcore records there is. Some of the best songs in metalcore history are on here, but also some filler, hence the rating. No one does ambience and metal like IA.

The Strokes - The New Abnormal
87

Really solid indie rock album. At its core this is fairly standard, but the Strokes just add a flair that you don't really get often in this style. Very uniquely done and a good listen.

Yersin - Guilt
51

Very samey, basically copy paste the same 10 songs. That said the tone is dirty and there are occasional moments that go hard, but generally pretty boring.

Flying Lotus - Cosmogramma
82

Really fun and intricate electronic music. Spans a whole lot of styles and brings a lot to the table, jazz being my personal favorite

Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues
84

This album is super relaxing, peaceful, and all atound beautifully composed. The guitars are very fun and the bibe is impeccable.

glass beach - plastic death
83

I love the variation this album brings, lots of unique moments and strong payoffs with explosive instrumentals. Vocally this album lacks a lot, and is definitely my biggest gripe.

Before I Turn - The Devil Exists
65

Much simpler than Lovelorn, and lacking the production. Boring structures, but solid riffage.

Swans - Filth
73

Pretty unique, listening to the first time 40 years after it came out. Feels pretty empty most of the time but is unsettling, distrurbing, and.... filthy

Ser - In Fade of Memories...
70

Super long, goes without saying that it's way too long. That being said it's solid blackgaze, better than most others but still very reminiscent. Really like the usage of piano and strings.

abriction - I Had A Dream That I Crashed My Dad's Jeep On The Bronx River Parkway
33

A unique combination of genres that really doesn't go over too well

Liminal Dream - Untitled
41

It's fine, the slow ambient sections at the beginning of each song aren't worth the payoff imo. There were some cool moments but it's really just long for the sake of being long

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven!
100

This album is just so moving. It's like a movie, and really needs to be experienced with headphones and a full focus. This album contains some of the greatest moments of music EVER.
