They take from the Taylor Swift playbook with "Empty Vessels", which is their worst song to date, and there's no really great moments. Lots of repetition within songs and irritatingly boring synths make this a hard listen. Lapochka blows too. Meshuggah Koloss4.5This is the best album in a long while, pretty consistent overall, and it's certainly leagues ahead of ObZen. "The Demon's Name Is Surveillance" may be my favorite single song since Stengah. Really digging everything about this album. 2011 Rivers Cuomo Alone III: The Pinkerton Years3.5Megadeth Th1rt3en2.5Zechs Marquise Getting Paid4.0Mastodon The Hunter3.5Decent album, but nowhere near their last few. A little inconsistent (Curl of the Burl is horrid, The Creature Lives is good for two novelty listens) but there's still some great stuff here. A few too many clean, radio-friendly choruses for my taste though, which has me worried for the future. Still, a great variety here, just not as heavy or cohesive as past work.Wormrot Noise3.5BADBADNOTGOOD BBNG4.0Opeth Heritage4.0St. Vincent Strange Mercy4.0Hella Tripper3.5Bon Iver Bon Iver, Bon Iver4.5Foster the People Torches4.0Red Fang Murder the Mountains4.0Wormrot Dirge3.5Mastodon Live at the Aragon3.0Good material hurt by some poor live vocals. Worth a listen and rare revisit, mostly because of the older tracks at the end. 40 Watt Sun The Inside Room3.52010 Omar Rodriguez-Lopez Mantra Hiroshima3.0Omar Rodriguez-Lopez どういたしまして4.0Weezer Death to False Metal2.5Kylesa Spiral Shadow3.5Ghost (SWE) Opus Eponymous4.5Weezer Hurley2.0The Omar Rodriguez Lopez Quartet Sepulcros De Miel3.5The Dead Weather Sea of Cowards3.5Omar Rodriguez-Lopez and John Frusciante Omar Rodriguez-Lopez and John Frusciante3.02009 Them Crooked Vultures Them Crooked Vultures3.5Weezer Raditude1.5Omar Rodriguez-Lopez Xenophanes3.0Megadeth Endgame4.0Zechs Marquise Our Delicate Stranded Nightmare2.0Too much noise, not enough anything else.
