Lana Del Rey - Norman Fucking Rockwell!
93

I think what makes this record so compelling is the instrumentation. I think Lana finally found the right balance of modernity and nostalgia, and it makes for her best record yet. A bit too long though, I think to be the masterpiece some are claiming. But certainly one of the best of the year.

Phosphorescent - Muchacho
88

Was thinking this album was mostly a one-hit wonder, but it's really fucking good

Laura Marling - Once I Was an Eagle
85

Don't know why I hadn't reviewed this, but it's mighty good

Foxygen - We Are the 21st Century Ambassadors of Peace & Magic
87

I think it's easy to forget how good this record is given how crappy most of the rest of their music is

Shura - forevher
67

Not enough boogie

Bon Iver - i,i
70

If this weren't by Bon Iver, I think the reviews would be more mediocre.

Phoebe Bridgers - Stranger in the Alps
88

Why was my initial rating for this so low?!

Beck - Sea Change
94

Re-listened recently when I bought the vinyl. This shit is so good

Marika Hackman - Any Human Friend
79

I think this will bring Marika a lot more attention which is fantastic. There are some great moments on this and I'm excited to dive into her lyrics, which never disappoint. But y'all new fans should go back and check out "I'm Not Your Man." It's far more cohesive

Fionn Regan - Cala
78

New Fionn Regan? Oh shit!

Honestly Fionn's best record in years. Beautifully sparse

Clairo - Immunity
74

Finally got around to this one. Even though it's somewhat inconsistent, there are some really good moments on this record. Very promising debut

Father John Misty - Pure Comedy
92

This album has grown on me so much over the years. Such a great musical satire of late 2010's America

Florist - Emily Alone
85

I'm a little late here, but this thing is super pretty!

Chance the Rapper - The Big Day
62

Yeah not great. And SO LONG

Angie McMahon - Salt
68

Nice, but forgettable

Delta Spirit - History From Below
85

Beginning the process of re-listening to everything I enjoyed this decade. Forgot how good this one was..

Nicole Yun - Paper Suit
71

Worth a listen, I think

Maxo Kream - Brandon Banks
68

I don't like trap but as far as trap goes, this was fine

Purple Mountains - Purple Mountains
68

Might be lyrically interesting but damn is this thing boring musically, with uninspiring vocals
