Good indie album! Wednesday sound like they enjoy playing music with each other and like authentic emotion was invoked in their songwriting process! "Bull Believer"- WOW. Karly Hartzman displays a refreshingly blunt lyrical voice and an acceptably blunt singing voice.

Noisecore is such a perfect musical format for blowing raspberries at fascist shoeshine boys like Michael Knowles and Ben Shapiro that you'll be too busy laughing to notice how tossed-off and shallow most of the actual music is! Couple fun d-beat throwdowns and the sludgy jam sesh at the end ain't half-bad either, but otherwise this is basically a REALLY funny (cathartically so, even) novelty record

Bland, overextended hooks, sluggish flows, and a stubborn refusal to expand on his premises beyond the very most basic level all combine to make BEN one of the biggest time-wasters of the year, a shallow trudge through rote rehearsals of rap's hoariest cliches- when your most inventive lyrical notion is anthropomorphizing alcohol as an abusive girlfriend (cuz like she's bad for him but he's addicted to her geddit), it's time to consider other career paths

Patricia Taxxon Doraemon3.5
During the creation of this album, Taxxon tweeted that it would be taking cues from their nearly-unlistenable 2016 project Inhumane, so needless to say I was pretty concerned about how this would turn out. To my pleasant surprise, Doraemon is a perfectly enjoyable glitch pop record, and the harsh noise elements lifted from Inhumane are put to fairly effective use. Overall, one of Taxxon's more compelling releases, both lyrically and compositionally.r

17 years into his career as a songwriter and Josh Ramsay's nearly-unparalleled pop acumen is still largely intact, and only somewhat marred by a willingness to indulge in modern (over)production tropes. Also it's of course nice to see Roger J. Manning still getting work in 2019.

The Boy Bands Have Won, and All the Copyists and the Tribute Bands and the TV Talent Show Producers Have Won, If We Allow Our Culture to Be Shaped by Mimicry, Whether from Lack of Ideas or from Exaggerated Respect. You Should Never Try to Freeze Culture. What You Can Do Is Recycle That Culture. Take Your Older Brother's Hand-Me-Down Jacket and Re-Style It, Re-Fashion It to the Point Where It Becomes Your Own. But Don't Just Regurgitate Creative History, or Hold Art and Music and Literature as Fixed, Untouchable and Kept Under Glass. The People Who Try to Guard Any Particular Form of Music Are, Like the Copyists and Manufactured Bands, Doing It the Worst Disservice, Because the Only Thing That You Can Do to Music That Will Damage It Is Not Change It, Not Make It Your Own. Because Then It Dies, Then It's Over, Then It's Done, and the Boy Bands Have Won.r

"Viking Death Machine" and "I'll be Your Monster" are both surprisingly fun, well-crafted hard-rock tunes. the rest of the songs manage to be almost entirely forgettable without ever tipping over into being outright *bad*. It's enough to reassure fans that GWAR without Dave Brockie is still GWAR, but unfortunately, it fails to be anything more.

Patricia Taxxon The Anthill3.5
After over 9 albums honing her skills at crafting dense, layered IDM, Taxxon's first 2017 release is a pivot towards twee, cutesy synth-pop, and her first release to feature singing on a majority of the tracks. Taxxon is, to put it bluntly, a fairly weak vocalist, but the results here are still charming enough, particularly on jaunty earworms like "Small Virtues".

Patricia Taxxon Inhumane1.0
Taxxon's warning in the opening track that this album contains "nothing that's worth listening to" proves to be sadly correct over nearly a full, excruciating hour of mindless sample-fuckery and ear-shreddingly abrasive blasts of noise. Simply put, one of the most unpleasant listening experiences of my entire life, by an artist who has since proven herself to be capable of so much more.

The Bad Light Temples3.0
TEMPLES is uniformly listenable, even enjoyable, but the music doesn't have quite enough personality for the album to really gel into anything truly great. Still, this album delivers enough hypnotic, grooving riffs and hazy, droning vocals to be a worthwhile listen for any fan of the stoner rock genre.

Marilyn Manson Born Villain1.5
Death Grips The Money Store3.0
Essentially, The Money Store is pseudo-intellectual music for non-hip hop fans. It attempts to present a curious combination of genre-bending ideas, yet falls into a very simple category of poorly executed shock rap. Veteran virtuoso drummer Zach Hill of math group Hella has a hand in the production here - surprising as it may seem - to the tune of regurgitated, noisy dubstep, strangely placed whirring, bleeps, bloops, and other sorts of progressive production techniques mish-moshed together in poor taste. Instrumentally, there is nothing groundbreaking here; when the Death Grips production crew does compose a serviceable track it feels like a wonky beat-tape reject. However, the real problem with The Money Store is MC Ride's consistently incoherent mumbling and meme-of-the-day approach to making hooks (case in point, look at Sputnikmusic's own soundoff/ rating section). Ride sounds like a lo-fi imitation of an electronic radio station hype man that doesn't just stop at the beginning of the track; his delivery kills any potential impact his actually insightful lyrics may have. Records like this, while laughable in execution, still bring interesting ideas to the table and fans to the genre of hip-hop - and that (at the very minimum) is something that can be applauded.

Team Dresch Captain My Captain3.8
Proof that maybe you can have too much of a good thing! Captain My Captain often suffers from oversaturating Team Dresch's raw, queer humanity into mere sentimentality, wit or politicking, but hey, 'tisn't BAD sentimentality, wit or politicking! The band's songwriting chops are as sturdy as ever, and in its best moments the performances are energized by a hunger and ambition the smaller-scale Personal Best rarely reached for. Mighty fine punk record all-around, just somewhat less arresting and individual-feeling that the debut is all.

This 44-minute assortment of 90's-era odds and ends has some bright spots- Folksy pop lark "Ice Drummer" and woozy lo-fi power ballad "Put the Waterbug in the Policeman's Ear" are both real winners- but most of this amounts to little more than demos of Satellite Heart and CTM tunes and a couple pleasant-but-inessential live recordings. It's a fun listen if you're a hardcore FLips fan, but everyone else is probably better off sticking to their proper studio releases

I used to think this was a 4.5, but "Love Bites" is dumb and bad, and "Night comes Down" is pretty meh too. Still though, has the best opener and one of the best closers in JP's discog, plus "Some Heads Are Gonna Roll", so it's still A-OK in my book.

After the lush, flowery, cabaret pop of their '67 albums, The White Album is a welcome return to good old-fashioned guitar rock for the fab four. Sure, there's a decent amount of cutesy throwaway tracks, but holy mackerel are the good songs good! "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is still one of the best things George ever wrote, Paul basically invented heavy metal with "Helter Skelter", and "Julia", "Blackbird", and "Dear Prudence" are all awfully pretty ballads. And "Revolution 1"? Sure, it might be a notch below the amped-up Hey Jude b-side, but a great song is a great song no matter how slow you play it.
