| 2.5 average |
| Aurora (NOR) All My Demons Greeting Me as a Friend |
| The first two tracks are great, but the rest is mostly lackluster. It's a real shame, as I find the few good songs intoxicating, with the combination of Auroras angelic layered vocals on top of the chilling production. Waste of potential. Conqueror is song of the year, dont @ me. |
| Brockhampton Ginger |
| CHVRCHES The Bones of What You Believe |
| there are a few good songs but its mostly w/erthose good songs tho god damn |
| Shahmen California is Cold |
Shahmen has a great voice for rap, and some of these beats go hard as FUCK, but the actual lyrical
content isn't particularly clever or interesting most of the time. There are a few exceptions with
lines like "I'm the only name still written on my hitlist" but it's mostly him complaining in an
uninteresting way about shit like global warming and how cali is totally fucked. I can't deny this
album has a style that is undeniably it's own, but its pretty one note and repetitive, especially
towards the back half. I had high hopes after the first two tracks, and maybe his next album will
be good, I hope it is, but as it stands I'm not impressed. |
