Brainbombs - Obey
89

I think people are missing the fact this album is a blatant satire and a metaphor of the emptiness of a psychosadist murderer; a very well presented satire at that, but I get why it turns some of ya'll off. The lyrics are definitely excessively edgy, but not for the sole purpose of being… edgy. It’s definitely not the most intriguing sound, but I find the satirically cringe elements on this album quite enticing. And some of the instrumentals, although repetitive, are sick. ... read more

Gigi Perez - At The Beach, In Every Life
91

The singles are the biggest redeeming factor of this album. The other songs fall short but hey. It’s a cute album.

Ethel Cain - Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You
90

While noticeably one of Hayden’s weaker projects,
“Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You” is nonetheless one of Anhedönia’s most relaxing yet beautifully visceral albums.

Fiona Apple - Fetch the Bolt Cutters
100

I think I finally get this album.

I’ve heard countless songs off of Fetch the Bolt Cutters. But it’s never clicked until today with me. Dare I say this is her best album, lyrically and visually.

Ethel Cain - Perverts
100

Listened to this finally at three in the morning in some random field in Idaho during a snowstorm. 10/10 recommend. Both the album and setting the scene lol. Oh and this was made a couple weeks after the albums release but my dumbass deleted my rating instead of my review when trying to edit it…

“Perverts” is definitely one of the most devastating and real albums I’ve ever listened to. Throughout its runtime, Perverts explores themes of sexual shame, sin, suicide, and ... read more

Fiona Apple - When the Pawn...
100

I’m unabashedly partial to Fiona Apple, but her sophomore album When the Pawn… is something else entirely.

This is probably my thousandth listen since I first found Fiona - ten years ago through my mother - and somehow, it only gets better.

Adrianne Lenker - songs
98

Adrienne Lenker is the lyricist of our time.

“Songs” is so nostalgic in the most painful yet romantic ways. Her guitar is so so so so so so gorgeous.

Carissa's Wierd - Songs About Leaving
97

This could genuinely be a movie’s soundtrack. Every. Single. Song. Is absolutely cinematic and rawly gorgeous. You’re practically brought into a world of its own listening to this.

What most music today lacks is emotion. This album is so absolutely stunning and subverts that notion entirely. Every note is so sincere it hurts, you feel like you yourself experienced the dread sung about throughout the album’s runtime.

Edit: 95 > 97

You are EVIL.

Prostitute - Attempted Martyr
97

Prostitute’s debut album has absolutely no right to be this good.

On Brainbombs - Obey
"@Untitled_V079 That’s absolutely true, but it’s clear the members don’t align with the narratives they express in their music, so I’ve always viewed it more as a satire than being edgy just because. But that’s just what I got from it."
