all sput avgs for YLT are extremely adequate except for I Can Hear the Heart tbh
maybe Nothing could use an extra point or so

johnny u aint know shit

shut up did u know this album title was made in reference to ur sputnik userpage uh zing

Nah Ride the Tiger and May I Sing With Me should probably be higher

who knew ylt would release an aoty contendah

my brains ripped to shreds

wow perfect album

Album Rating: 3.5

Hm this keeps getting better and is of course extremely listenable. “Until It Happens” is a skip and I don’t quite love “Brain Capers” or the t/t but everything else is fire. Only slightly hesitant to give it the 4 bump as that’s the rating I have most of their classic stuff on and it doesn’t quite feel right to put this on that level.

Album Rating: 3.0

aselestine is amazing

Album Rating: 4.5

'Until It Happens' is a skip'...sacrilege



'and I don’t quite love “Brain Capers”....sacrilege



'or the t/t'....woah sacrilege



'but everything else is fire.'....hmmm, okay

Absolutely cracking start to 2023. This album is potentially the best of the first 3mnths

Album Rating: 4.0

Yeah this and Young Fathers got me hyped for new 2023 music

Album Rating: 4.0

Until It Happens is excellent



This is a lovely little album, first two tracks are my favs

Album Rating: 4.5

Hmm, this year seems a bit slow, really slow compared to last year.



Think I had four or so 4.5+ ratings by this time last year - this is my only 4.5 of 2023



April looks interesting for releases though

This
James Yorkston
Gorillaz
Gaz Coombes
Orbital

Good stuff.

hey zak, any comment on the wonderful records currently calling your name form the Best New Music tab?

Fall Out Boy?

Pass us the rope

That particular hype train is pushing enough of the stuff that you'll have little issue there

that gaz coombes album annoys me and i haven't even listened

dont wanna see a someone still sporting a britpop haircut advertised on the tube these days
