5/10
-
Somehow the accompanying dark ambience of Hagbulbia leaves a stronger impression than Avow.
-
Spots of Exodus are timely and effective celebrations of DMX’s memory; others sound sadly rushed.
-
Between a few tracks hitting and Rivers singing “pump it up into me, please daddy” as a hook, Van Weezer is pretty much a mid-tier Weezer album.
-
Young Thug and company are back with an even more bloated and inconsistent comp-like album.
-
The bland and scant musical ideas don’t support DEACON‘s emotional weight.
-
While Quadeca generally kills it on the production side of From Me to You, sadly the vocal content can be a bit grating.
-
-
Pale Waves bring little more than the fundamentals on their sophomore album.
-
The Weather Station plays the sophisti-pop sound as safely as possible on Ignorance.
-
Hayley Williams has transposed the derivativeness of her debut album to an indie folk context.
