in a garden of dead flowers
you were my gardener
don't water me, don't cut me out
instead pluck my petals one by one
watch me fall in love
watch me fall apart
until i'm nothing but thorns and mud
gentle fingers caress the stem
bleeding more with every touch
take me away, take me away
take me far away from here
take me somewhere deep in the woods
and swallow me with your open mouth
as my spikes cut open your flesh
and i wonder what would have happened
had i said yes
had we ran ... read more

albums like these remind me of why i love music.
donuts is an album shrouded in legend: even way before i listened to it, i knew that it was j dilla's final album released before his death, crafted in a hospital bed and – rumor has it – chock-full of subtext in every note and every beat flip. as it usually happens with albums released shortly before an artist's ... read more
oh i love this episode! it's the one where they all get stuck in the bottomless pit and have to tell stories to past time and– wAIT A SECOND IT'S DEATH GRIPS HOLY SHIT DEATH GRIPS REVIEW DEATH GRIPS REVIEW DEATH GRIPS REVIEW YES YES YES YES YES YEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS [explodes]
man, i remember like it was yesterday: summer '24, the year i discovered, fell in love with, and maniacally obsessed over the delicious industrial chaos that is death grips; and i swear to god, the ... read more
i dreaded the day i'd had to make this review.
so. i really don't think i have to introduce this album or the artist to you. it's michael jackson. the king of pop. the jackson 5 child prodigy. the global phenomenon. and it's thriller. the best-selling album of all time, ever since its original release, and it STILL holds that title. 70 fucking million copies sold. 7 out of the 9 tracks were top 10 hits. that's fucking insane. and i gotta say, the fact that all of this ... read more

thank you for 250 followers 🩵 special review coming for 300!
this review was supposed to have been completed a week ago, but i delayed it due to personal issues. i'm still doing the thing, tho. promise.
man, this album ROCKS. i really didn't expect to like this as much as i did. led zeppelin so far has been a band that i admire and like, but never enough to truly fall in love with them – even when i listened to their debut, which ... read more

so i was just thinking... this is the fifth kendrick lamar studio album i've reviewed. and kendrick currently has 6 studio albums. which means there's only one album left for me to have reviewed his full album discography. hmm... i wonder if something's gonna happen after i complete it...
eh, probably ... read more

"close to the edge, down by a river
down at the end, round by the corner
seasons will pass you by
i get up, i get down"
the best thing about yes's 1972 magnum opus, close to the edge, isn't the outstanding performances, or the larger-than-life musical ambitions, or the buddhist-inspired epic narrative told by the lyrics in the title track, or the hopeful beauty of and you and i and siberian khatru, or the excellent blend of classical elements with p(r)og rock, not even the ... read more

alright, here's the thing: i wrote three completely different reviews for veteran while i was listening to it, and i was having a pretty hard time trying to stitch them together or morph them into one more concise review, so i'm saying Fuck It! and just posting all three of 'em at once cuz i'm quirky like that. i mostly disagree with the first ... read more
"until you're fully grown, you've got a real good shot; won't help to hold inside, keep it real, give a real shout out!"
don't you love it when albums sound exactly like their cover art? even better – don't you love it when albums sound like the inside of a kaleidoscope?
this is my first time listening to animal collective, and boy i was not disappointed. i LOVED this thing, y'all. i can hear the beatles influence all over it; it's like if ... read more
"anger is a gift."
amidst our current scenario of chaos, uncertainty and brutality, rage against the machine's 1992 self-titled debut album remains as hard-hitting and essential as ever. not only is zack de la rocha's militant poetry fantastic on its own, but pair it with tom morello's insane guitar work and you have what is probably the best rap metal record of all time. having never heard the full album i was worried how much carry factor the lead single, killing in ... read more
"don't worry, you and me won't be alone no more"
been wanting to check out the haha gay furry album for ages, and yeah, it's a goddamn masterpiece. truly outstanding how twin fantasy is such a lyrically and instrumentally dense album, layers upon layers of teenage heartbreak and angsty lo-fi guitars, and yet it's so easy to fall in love with, so easy to relate to. the narrative here feels like something we've all been through at some point of our lives, ... read more
"here is something you should drop to your knees for, and worship; but you are too stupid to realize yourselves. a song for the deaf... that is for you."
i think the real reason queens of the stone age named their third and most successful album "songs for the deaf" is because this album makes you want to turn up the volume so high that it'll make you deaf. like, seriously, i've never heard an album that was so clearly made with the intention of being played as ... read more
"hold on; if love is the answer, you're home"
the grooviest album to have ever grooved.
random access memories, legendary french duo daft punk's fourth and ultimately final album, is all about nostalgia, and it couldn't be any different for me. this album brings back so many good memories, man. i was a kid when it came out, and the singles – especially get lucky – were absolutely INESCAPABLE, they played on the radio all the time and me and my family always ... read more
"would you dare to take a little journey?"
WE LOOOOOVE PLUNDERPHONICS IN THIS HOUSE!!!!!!
FUCK this album is SO DAMN GOOD. since i left you is an hour-long dance journey entirely made up of samples that flows seamlessly and remains consistent, banger after banger. the creativity is off the hook here, and it really just feels like a single body of work with how well the tracks blend into each other. it also falls into one of my favorite music categories: one that you can certainly put ... read more

On 𝒩𝑒𝓋𝑒𝓇𝓂𝑒𝒶𝓃𝓉's review of Godspeed You! Black Emperor - F♯ A♯ ∞
"@TheNevermeant it does make sense! i believe that the true meaning of art is what you make of it, the impact of it on your personal experience; music is no different. i think it does depend on whether it's a more lyrics heavy album – like a rap album for ex – or one thats more about the atmosphere, like sigur rós and ichiko aoba's music. (note: i haven't checked out ichiko yet, but i am curious to do so. my spin list is huge ok be patient)"
On 𝒩𝑒𝓋𝑒𝓇𝓂𝑒𝒶𝓃𝓉's review of Godspeed You! Black Emperor - F♯ A♯ ∞
"@TheNevermeant oh man i Fucking Love ágætis byrjun. top 10 most beautiful albums oat on GOD. i did look up the lyrics when i listened to it, but there's definitely a certain mystique to not knowing what jónsi's singing about, especially with the track in the made-up hopelandic(?) language. tho i gotta say, as a non-native english speaker it kinda bothers me when ppl don't care about looking up the lyrics to non-english albums, or not give a foreign language album a higher score bc of the language barrier – i'm not saying that's your case! i've just seen it quite a lot and its kinda upsetting tbh. like here in brazil we're encouraged to learn and be fluent in english from a very young age... but anyway, i digress lol"

"@TheNevermeant aww, i'm happy to hear that 🥹 as a fellow aspiring writer i always like to leave words of encouragement! and yeah i totally agree, i love instrumental music because it leaves the room open for different interpretations and can lead to some really creative ideas, even with a concept like this album's; and their political activism just makes me admire them even more. f#a# didn't wow me as much as skinny fists did, but it's definitely a masterpiece and one of the most impactful albums i've ever heard"

"jesus fucking christ, dude. this genuinely gave me a knot in my throat while i was reading.
gy!be's music is incredibly evocative, you could write so many stories inspired off of this album or lift yr skinny fists, and the anti-war themes are especially relevant in the current nightmarish world we're living in.
and also just aaaaaaaaa i love writing and i love music and i'm honestly so glad this site still has reviewers like you <3"
