5/10
-
Returning after decades of studio album silence, Hum tries to reintroduce their classic sound with some added bells and whistles, but falls quite short.
-
At a sprawling 23 tracks, The Album has highlights and duds in equal measure.
-
There’s very little rhyme or reason to Notes on a Conditional Form.
-
The songwriting and vocal performances on Starz often leave a lot to be desired, though the Whitearmor production is pretty stellar.
-
Even as it gets more of a pulse going in a new wave direction, Petals for Armor is a disappointingly derivative debut.
-
As a Converge-affiliated deathcore supergroup, Umbra Vitae is maybe more exciting on paper than in execution.
-
Car Seat Headrest’s latest album is an unfortunate case of untapped potential.
-
-
None of the songs on Kali Uchis’ latest EP go as far creatively and melodically as her prior work.
-
Spirituality and Distortion might just be Igorrr’s most uncompromising album so far—for better or worse.
