Popular Reviews

The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monáe

“We’re all virgins to the joys of loving without fear” What an absolute delight to listen to. Melodic and rhythmic, high energy through the fast and slow songs. I feel like this hit the perfect balance of lead vocals / percussion / synth and pads / other rhythm and vocals. It was long but thoughtfully made, with great transitions and song order, awesome choice of samples, and most importantly just a bunch of groovin songs. The vocal effects were a bit distracting once or twice, but I actually liked those moments in the same way I like the non-scary moments in a horror movie. They’re necessary for the scary moments (great songs in the album) to have full effect. 10/10

A Little Deeper by Ms. Dynamite

Super awesome, funky, what a banger… she’s like the funk version of Etta James 9/10

Tago Mago by Can

Aumgn was awful. The rest was alright but not great, and it got worse throughout the album. People really will put any word in front of “rock” and call it a genre. 3.5/10

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone

This album knows what it’s about. We played a couple songs from it in jazz band in high school. 9/10
