7/10
-
A pretty fun attempt at expanding the scale of Louis Cole's funky sound.
-
One of the band's most feel-good albums.
-
While not every crossover on Stampede is fireworks, most of them land in the OK to great range.
-
The biggest knock against Mahōgakkō is that it's sometimes too overwhelming for its own good.
-
Loses a bit of steam in the middle, but this is certainly a black metal band to keep an eye on.
-
Some cool genre combinations from Meridian Brothers that could've yielded some more interesting results on the whole.
-
Priest is still sounding triumphant on Invincible Shield.
-
A tad inconsistent, but still Tom’s most solid full-length in many years. Dostrotime by Squarepusher
-
The band is moving back in the right direction. TANGK by IDLES
-
Would be nice to hear Simz develop these sounds further on her next LP.
