6/10
-
Dave’s sophomore album is hit-and-miss in both style and substance.
-
It’s admirable that Marina tackles a number of weighty subject matters on Ancient Dreams; unfortunately, there’s often not enough follow-through on the musical end.
-
-
Bladee continues honing his voice and lyricism on The Fool, his most accessible yet esoteric album to date.
-
Despite being backed by some pretty unremarkable production, Lil Baby and Lil Durk bring out the best of each other on The Voice of the Heroes.
-
Whereas both volumes of Musas were different beasts, Un canto por México vol. 2 mostly feels supplementary.
-
DOOM and Czarface’s chemistry and creativity is still present on Super What?, though with slightly diminishing returns.
-
A Diabolic Thirst is intensely performed, albeit standard, black metal fare.
-
At its best, Lei Line Eon‘s new direction exposes the nuances and beauty of Iglooghost’s production, but it’s not without its incongruities and growing pains.
-
Is 4 Lovers sounds like a transitional project for DFA.
