Popular Reviews

Night Life by Ray Price

What if Frank Sinatra was from Bikini Bottom?

A Seat at the Table by Solange

Legit the most boring album I think I've heard on this list so far. Which is a shame, because the themes Solange sings about are so powerful, but bar Cranes in the Sky, I didn't like the album: there was so much disconnect between words of anger and despair and the slow tempo and repetitiveness of the music.

Countdown To Ecstasy by Steely Dan

Seriously underwhelming dad rock that fails to try something new

The Modern Lovers by The Modern Lovers

Proto-punk that sounds a lot like the Doors meets the Clash, except doesn't overplay the keys. Roadrunner and Pablo Picasso are big highlights; this album is right up my street, and it was no surprise when I learned two of the members were also in the Cars and the Talking Heads.

L'Eau Rouge by The Young Gods

Ok, so there's noise rock and punk and black metal and industrial, and then there's this. This album was actively painful to listen to. This is p harsh, but the only reason it will be memorable will be from the scars left from listening to it.
