Nearly every song on Blue Weekend comes across as an overblown pastiche of 90s alternative and indie rock.
-
When you inevitably hear Khaled Khaled at the barbershop or blaring from a passing car, some of it won’t be so bad.

-
The Mods’ penchant for getting so much out of so little hasn’t carried over to Spare Ribs.
-
Though it boasts a grander sound than Baker’s past work, Little Oblivions is laden with unremarkable indie-isms.
-
Trippie Redd’s foray into rock music, while not half-hearted, has plenty of kinks to be ironed out.
-
Not much is poppin on That’s What They All Say.
-
Uzi and Future cancel each other out on Pluto x Baby Pluto.
-
Even as a demo or leak, Act II is short on solid song concepts.
-
Lacking the aha moments of Neil’s previous mashups, Mouth Dreams smacks of garden variety SoundClownery.
