album listens #99 - townes van zandt - townes van zandt

 

so lovely, so nice :')

FAVOURITE SONG: For the Sake of the Song, Fare Thee Well, Miss Carousel, Waiting Around to Die

RATING: 8/10

album listens #98 - romance - fontaines d.c

 

fontaines cement themselves as the most inconsistent mainstream post-punk / rock band of the decade. first two singles were great, then got uninteresting; the few album tracks that are the highlights still don't do anything really interesting, grian's lyrics are basically the only thing that is. mildy impressed, wildly boring

FAVOURITE SONG: Favourite, Starburster, Bug, Death Kink

RATING: 4/10

album listens #97 - journey in satchidananda - alice coltrane & pharoah sanders

 

definitely a re-listen but i absolutely love this album. the whole thing is so rich with character and textures and atmosphere it really feels like such a journey. going to listen to lots more alice coltrane asap

FAVOURITE SONG: (all felt like one song really)

RATING: 9/10

album listens #96 - so medieval - blue bendy

 

really love the songwriting. love the vocals they are so emotive. does feel quite bc,nr - esque at times which isn't a bad thing but i feel like that's where the creativity is lacking, however blue bendy r very cool i like them

FAVOURITE SONG: Mr. Bubblegum

RATING: 6 or 7/10

album listens #95 - suicide - suicide

 

didn't get it until about halfway through and still not 100% sure i do. not one i'd listen to often but i respect what suicide did on this album. it's super basic and it's the soundscapes that really create the character of it. cool af

FAVOURITE SONG: Frankie Teardrop

RATING: idek/10

album listens #94 - walls and bridges - john lennon

 

extremely uninteresting and borderline offensive in how much it sucks. seems like he's doing a callback to the beatles, remembering all the glory days by doing them ten times worse. a few redeeming moments but barely worth listening to

FAVOURITE SONG: What You Got, Steel and Glass

RATING: 3/10

album listens #93 - masterpiece - big thief

 

perfect in every way. have such a love for guitar tones like this and its recorded and produced just perfectly. greatest band ever i love everything they do, songs are gut wrenchingly beautiful and i love the loud style of this. as good as capacity and not far behind dragon new warm mountain. incredible wowwowowowow

FAVOURITE SONG: Real Love

RATING: 10/10
