4/5

this sounded like an album that would be someone’s favorite. it wasn’t my favorite but it was good. but it’s someone on here’s favorite. and that’s why i’m so excited for this portion of the project. because someone out there has deep feelings for this music. and they wanted to share it with others. and i got to experience it because of their love. and it was pretty good too!! probably low 4. i much prefer this kind of mid 2010s indie rock to the modern 2020s stuff going crazy right now

Carrie & Lowell

Sufjan Stevens

4/5

the vibes were devastating. not as good as Illinois but pretty close in a pretty different way

Psychic

DARKSIDE

3/5

a truly good and interesting full work that i don’t think would work nearly as well song by song. the album flows very well but no songs were actually GREAT. probably high 3

An Empty Bliss Beyond This World

The Caretaker

3/5

the caretaker is an interesting artist because they generally have cool, thought-provoking ideas behind the music. i mean look the song titles in this album. but after around 15 minutes of music it all sounds the same. and it’s a fine atmosphere to create but it gets stale if you’re with it too long

Spilt Milk

Jellyfish

3/5

this was good!! it hinted at very good now and then but there were a couple almost bad songs so super solid high 3 territory. i did enjoy how they seemed to wear their influences on their sleeve. heard hints of Queen, Beatles, Beach Boys, even some Rush thrown in there while still sounding rather unique

Moa Anbessa

Getatchew Mekurya

4/5

this was super cool! definitely something i’d never heard and never would have heard. shined brightest when there were no vocals but it shined pretty damn bright in those moments. unfortunately the vocals seemed to always be around the corner which makes it so that i can’t give this anything higher than a 3. but this album instrumentally is an easy 4

22, A Million

Bon Iver

Out Of Time

R.E.M.

4/5

Slip

Quicksand

2/5

this was hard to get through. every song sounds the same with the horrible scratchy yelling voice and fake tough instrumentals. i jus can’t stand music like this

3/5

this was interesting!! went all over the place and some parts were better than others but pretty cool overall

I And Love And You

The Avett Brothers

4/5

really is a time capsule but it’s super good!! Kick Drum Heart was one of the first songs i ever learned on drums but this is the first time i’ve actually listened to this album all the way through. very glad to have done it
