Swans - To Be Kind
99
This was one of the best musical experiences I've ever had and I feel it really benefited from having listened to all Swans' previous work. It's a really otherworldly experience and after listening this, I feel different. I feel kind of lightheaded, but also really calm. It's weird.

From front to back the album and it's themes, composition and lyricism is very consistent. It almost feels like a complete story. The first half feels like someone breaking free from their chains and the second ... read more

blink-182 - Enema of the State
75
The album everyone has in their car or somewhere behind a shelf for some reason. It's an iconic album that made a lot of childhoods, yet I have continuously slept on it.

Holy shit, this made me so happy for some reason. This feels like a very natural continuation upon their previous albums, yet it improves in almost every category. It was so much fun to listen to, it perfectly encapsulates teen angst and joy in a way that doesn't feel edgy or forced. Above that, there's a high degree of ... read more

Metallica - ...And Justice for All

I sure hope you like drums, snare drums to be exact. Because it's all you'll hear on this album. Never before have I ever heard such good musicianship mixed with such horrible production. It's something unexpected, but I'm not pleased.

I know it's been said a thousand times, but it really shits on how good this album could have been.

blink-182 - Dude Ranch

Sometimes it's pretty hard to sit through, because the vocals suck so bad at times. It's like they've got the lyrics and tries to improvise it over some cool instrumental they've cooked up. However it never feels like it's one entity, it's some elements scrambled together to form the least catchy pop-punk on earth.

The positives were the lyrics itself, they were a lot of fun. There's a lot of teen angst and I'm a big fan of it, they're clearly enjoying writing it. The instrumentals were ... read more

The Beatles - Now And Then
88
This was a lot of fun to listen to and just left me with a smile. It wasn't necessary, but I'm happy for the Beatles fans who enjoy this. It's a pretty song and I think it's very well done.
Green Day - Look Ma, No Brains!
70
Okay, I'm starting to slightly feel the hype. We got a pretty good streak going, yet I'm still skeptical. It's too soon to tell, since this song is over before you know it, but I think they're starting to get back on track.

"I'm trying to give consequent ratings, but I'm still discovering a lot of music. I'll probably disagree with myself a lot." I can relate to this statement on a spiritual level.

Hey sorry it took me time responding.
I keep on suggesting this record to others cause I think the artist deserves an audience: it's Thaïs Lona's "CUBE" I thought it was a pretty cool record
