Popular Reviews

Whatever

Aimee Mann

2/5

This is way too dense and too 90s. The melodies are boring and same-y, with lyrics that are way too verbose. Maybe it’s a product of the time but every song feels like it needed an edit pass.

Really shallow lyrics, a race to get to the hook in every song, some really cringey 15-year-old ideas about romance. Honestly, this sounds like a more polished Rebecca Black. I have no idea how this album is held in such high regard--it feels like this was assembled in a corporate boardroom.

2/5

The third track of the album is a seven minute “don’t kill yourself” song. The 80s were weird.

Come Away With Me

Norah Jones

Music to listen to while holding a mug of tea with both hands. Sweet enough to give you diabetes.

Idlewild

Everything But The Girl

2/5

This album is fine, but is what I assume they play in the background of episodes of Gilmore Girls. Nothing objectionable but also completely forgettable.

Madonna

1/5

This is the worst one so far. So dated and just a cacophony of sound. The lyrics are on par with Kirk van Houten's "Can I Borrow a Feeling?" I hated every second I had to listen to this.

Sunshine Superman

Donovan

3/5

Sunshine Superman and Season of the Witch are total bops. However, a huge part of this album is just 60s weirdness.

First Band On The Moon

The Cardigans

3/5

From knowing this band only from their biggest hit, this was far more listenable than I expected. Not the greatest, but “Been It”, “Never Recover”, and “Your New Cuckoo” were all pretty catchy.
