6/10
-
Thaiboy plays it pretty safe on his second solo album.
-
Fred’s talents as a producer are evident on AL3‘s brightest moments, but he’s not quite there as an album artist yet.
-
While it’s respectable for Stormzy to embrace his mellower, more melodic side, the results sound a bit too focus-grouped.
-
-
Carly’s messiest album to date still isn’t that bad.
-
The most fun Peps album in a long, long time.
-
While far from Cudi’s most exciting music, Entergalactic does work pretty well as a standalone album, as opposed to just a soundtrack.
-
Preoccupations taking a chance on a shoegazier sound is a step in the right direction. Arrangements by Preoccupations
-
The quality songwriting at the core of TMV is squandered by the band’s drabbest sound palettes to date.
-
Darnielle & co.’s most thematically focused and hardest-hitting project since Goths, but the results are still a little mixed. Bleed Out by The Mountain Goats
