| John Frusciante The Empyrean |
| Perhaps the main thing that turned me on to 'The Empyrean' and John Frusciante's solo work in general is the fact that he really has the freedom as an individual to let his own talents and aspirations shine. Apart from the musicianship, there wasn't really too much that RHCP had to offer in my opinion. With The Empyrean, the complexity and talent of Frusciante is very in your face, yet the songs also touch a whole new part of the soul, reaching far beyond what words can even explain. The man himself is one big mystery to me, which begs the opportunity to dive even further into his prior solo efforts. |
| Modest Mouse The Moon & Antarctica |
| Nothing to see here... just another shitty soundoff. This album's good btw. |
| Modest Mouse The Lonesome Crowded West |
| The album that you're "Modest Mouse fan" friends haven't even heard of. WTF?! |
| Say Anything ...Is a Real Boy |
| I can try all I want, there's no way this soundoff will ever be as witty as anything on ...Is A Real Boy. |

| The Antlers Hospice |
| Cancer plays a role in everyone's life in one way or another. For some, maybe the fear hasn't yet become reality, and they're presently wading in the morose beauty that is Hospice, hoping that day never comes. |
| The National Alligator |
| This album is more quotable than an episode of Spongebob. |
| The National High Violet |
| Happy people still able to write melancholy music 5/5 |
| Weezer Pinkerton |
| I was so obsessed with Pinkerton and this band in general at one point that I almost bought the book about Rivers' diary entries during this album's recording and release. |
| Weezer The Blue Album |
| One of the few albums from my childhood that has actually retained both nostalgia and quality of musicianship. Blue album still holds a special place in my heart. Sorry Linkin Park... |

| John Frusciante Niandra LaDes and Usually Just a T-Shirt |
| This is a 5, but only when I'm drunk...and Niandra Lades is way better than Usually Just a T-Shirt. |
| John Frusciante The Will to Death |
| John Frusciante Smile from the Streets You Hold |
| There are some songs that sit well with me in a normal state of mind, such as the tracks with River Phoenix on them. However, much like JF's prior effort on 'Niandra Lades...", this album is much better enjoyed when drunk. It's almost like background music in one sense, but on another note, the songs resonate so vividly on nights set aside just to ponder life and rant with close friends on the internet. |
