Absolute banger of an album and really showed me some of the origins of bands I’ve liked throughout the years. The influence of the stooges is wider than I had thought. It also helped I listened to this album while driving around Southern California in a truck with the windows down. Felt like I was in Lords of Dogtown :))))
Every song sounded the same
Absolute ripper. Will go back time and time again.
Big ol' fan. I had been recommended a Little Simz song a couple weeks ago from a different album and really enjoyed it so I was pleased to get offered up this one. Super fun, unique music production with all sorts of different vibes and instrumentations. Weird notice but she must have a metronome in her head because she raps so fucking on-beat it's insane. Big fan of all of it. especially 'Offence' 'Boss' and '101 FM'
Relax is obviously a classic but quite played out for me after seen Zoolander 1 trillion times. I definitely was not expecting the Bruce Springsteen cover part of the way through. That was a nice treat. And it is ultimately what saved it from a two star review.

Background music for 40 minutes with a single breath of “oh ok maybe” on the second to last song but that feeling fleeted after 20 seconds and then the album ended. Shrug
Tbh at first I was like "oh yeah I know this guy/this voice/that one song" but then throughout the whole album I was surprised at how many of this dude's songs I knew and recognized. None of them are total bangers imho but I enjoy a good nostalgia dopamine infusion.
Big fat 3 for me. Had some moments of ripping but ultimately just sounded like relatively outdated rock music. I'm sure at the time the album was a bop.
