charming, vibey and beautiful
i didn't think i'd like it that much since i'm not really into 90's pop music, but this is awesome
⭐ race for the prize
🔻 the spiderbite song
1-4 track run is INSANE
i like the direction the band has decided to go, but it's not much of an improvement over the debut
⭐ cinderella
🔻 departures
we're finally gonna get the album!
this single is incredible, the album might be AOTY
definitely a big year for music
i thought i would like this a lot more
sorry, you allowed to hate me, but the only really good song is "enjoy the silence"
the rest of the album is kinda mid and repetitive, maybe i need to focus more on lyrics, but for now it's overrated for me
⭐ enjoy the silence
🔻 sweetest perfection
ty @iriz for rec
i listened to this not too long ago, but decided to re-listen to it again cuz idk how to rate it
don't get me wrong, it's a pretty decent album, i mean, actually very good, but i found it too repetitive for me sometimes, and i can't really stand that guy voice, sorry.
⭐ off this century
🔻 who cares
swans journey, pt.2: the glowing man
holy fuck? this is absolutely incredible.
if you compare it to "to be kind", this album is clearly more "inaccessible" cuz of the songs length. the songs themselves are much more catchy and better, imo
⭐ the glowing man
🔻 people like us
the lyrics and cover is very sus
but the music is very catchy and slaps but i still kinda miss something
⭐ amaranth
🔻 divers
they are constantly dropping BANGER after a BANGER
amazing and beautiful album
more chill than their previous but still very good
⭐ nails
🔻 code
the first track and last track is absolutely brilliant musical creation ngl
incredible and underrated project
⭐ performance art
🔻 ding ding ding
dmytro gave me early access to this track
it's a long and deep song about the ukrainian war, so i just can't give it a score below 100 cuz i live in war too
okay, the "algorithmic" lyrics is the most cornball shit i've ever listened to
but the ep itself is great, i guess 65-73 is a fair score
⭐ gmaps
🔻 algorithmic
i don't know what's going to happen next
its nice but i'm confused
i really liked some moments here, like 'the ocean is fake' is incredible, but the rest is unfortunately meh
⭐ the ocean is fake
🔻 track 1
(05/02/2025 | re-review & re-rating)
most atmospheric and mood-dependent album for me in their discog
the complexity, structure and instrumentals experimentation of each song here is insane
i like to be unique and tell ppl that my favorite radiohead song is bloom but it's true, it's a BANGER
obviously underrated
⭐ bloom
🔻 feral
🔽 90 -> 87
![Godspeed You! Black Emperor - F♯ A♯ ∞ [CD Version]](https://cdn2.albumoftheyear.org/100x0/album/53478-f-a-expanded-version_173611.jpg)
this is not the music 'album'
this is an 1 hour of the most harrowing experience
this is the type of life altering experience that changes after each re-listening
NOTHING hits that hard like this project when you're in the right mood, in the right place and at the right time.
🔼 90 -> 100
they just can't make a bad album
my second favorite from them for sure, absolutely brilliant musical creation
for me it's a more fun and catchy project compared to any other i've listened to from them
⭐ rockets fall on rocket falls
🔻 09-15-00 (cont.)

On tistan's review of Kim Petras - Detour
"@tistan comparing this to slayyyter doesn't automatically prove a lack of ambition either. genres are built on shared aesthetics. you could apply the exact same logic to synthpop, shoegaze, rage, jersey club, literally anything. similarity alone is not proof of creative bankruptcy. also, burnout doesn't automatically mean the music is objectively getting worse. sometimes it just means you’ve consumed too much of the same style in a short period of time. that’s a listener-side issue as much as an artist's-side one. know the difference"
On tistan's review of Kim Petras - Detour
"@tistan this isn't really criticism, it’s more of an emotional rant. you keep saying "everything sounds the same" "0 ambition" "no evolution" but you never actually explain what you mean by that. which albums are copying each other? what specific trends or production choices are becoming repetitive? what would "evolution" even look like to you? also reducing an entire scene to "slopfest" just bc most releases didn’t personally connect with you says more about your current burnout with the genre than it does about the actual state of the music."

On Itscominghome's review of Afterlife Slave - THE WARPING
"comparing this to Discovery sets a very specific standard that not every conceptual electronic project is trying to meet, i don't fully agree that music has to clearly 'tell the story' without context for the concept to work. in many genres, especially electronic music, the narrative is often meant to be abstract or supported by external material. most of the arguments feel more like personal preference presented as universal rules for me"
