3/10
-
Sea of Worry is by a mile HANL’s stalest, least imaginative album yet.
-
Many of the songs on Care Package were better off unreleased.
-
Pi’erre Bourne continues to dilute his sound with this latest solo effort.
-
-
Steve Lacy still sounds as if he’s in demo mode on Apollo XXI.
-
Mac DeMarco pares his songwriting down to something more minimal on Here Comes the Cowboy, losing a lot of personality along the way.
-
Maggie Rogers’ debut studio album doesn’t have much in the way of memorable songwriting or a distinctive voice.
-
Tyler, the Creator leaves an awkward and weakly assembled Christmas EP under the tree.
-
Zoo‘s songs, with only a couple of exceptions, range from boring to awful and are further weighed down by Russ’s crummy mindset.
-
Valee doesn’t come through with a single flow worth stealing on his latest EP.
