Sort by: Rating | Release Date | Rating Date | Name5.0 classicGrandview Everything Between Paint and a WallDeserves way more attention than it has received, really great and incredibly engaging. This album has so many great moments and shows a true knack for writing engaging and diverse songs. See the Sun is the highlight, a distressingly frank look at self-loathing exemplifying the band's ability to produce emotive songs that don't fall into the trap of sounding overly maudlin.4.5 superbA Perfect Circle Thirteenth StepBaroness Red AlbumReal high-point for me in Baroness' output. Subsequent records are all serviceable riff-laden larks but The Red Album has a distinct sound they just didn't really maintain.City and Colour SometimesCity and Colour The MySpace TransmissionsGreat Grandpa Four of ArrowsHaste the Day CowardJulien Baker Turn Out The LightsLa Dispute WildlifeReally engaging and enjoyable record. Great use of theme and concept, covering diverse topics with a strong central narrative etc.rAs with any La Dispute your mileage may vary based upon your patience for comically over-emotive bawling but it just so happens to be my jam. For me this is where they nailed their sound, losing a little bit too much edge in the follow up.Lydia IlluminateManchester Orchestra Simple MathmewithoutYou Pale HorsesSpanish Love Songs Brave Faces EveryoneState Faults ClairvoyantSunhouse Crazy on the WeekendBeautiful record.

Pleasant listen, will definitely spin again, do wish it was on Spotify though.La Dispute Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between Vega and Altair Many Rooms There is a Presence HereThe Hotelier Home, Like NoPlace Is ThereThe Wonder Years The Greatest GenerationTool Ænima3.5 greatA Perfect Circle Mer de NomsEnter Shikari Nothing Is True and Everything Is PossibleFrom Indian Lakes Absent SoundsI the Mighty ConnectorLa Dispute Rooms of the HouseParkway Drive Killing with a SmileParkway Drive HorizonsThe 1975 The 1975The Wonder Years Suburbia I've Given You All and Now I'm NothingThe Wonder Years No Closer to HeavenYndi Halda Under SummerI really wanted to love this but it just falls way short of their debut for me. The high points are there for sure but a fair amount of this record just drags and just didn't leave a real impression.rWill keep spinning this every once in a while in the hope it really sticks but for now it's just a nice bit of background music.3.0 goodDance Gavin Dance Instant GratificationDayseeker OriginOne of the better releases in the genre I've heard in a long time, the harsh vocals are rparticularly clear and well executed. Some of the lyricism does fall down in terms of subtlety rthough.Eidola DegeneraterraFrom Indian Lakes Able Bodies RemixesGarfunkel and Oates All Over Your FaceFunny record but suffers the fate of most comedy albums with repeated listens, the jokes only hold up so many times.Kaddisfly Horses Galloping on SailboatsPleasant when it works but let down by a vocal performance that's both generic and really not that well executed anyway. The meanderings into different genres tend to fall flat (drastically in the case of "The Companion") but there are a lot of fun songs on here.Lacey Sturm Life ScreamsmewithoutYou Pale Horses: AppendixNothing really stood out as particularly interesting or noteworthy. A pleasant addition to Pale Horses if that's what you're after but the album itself is far more worth your time.Puscifer Money ShotTool Undertow2.5 averageA Perfect Circle eMOTIVeA Perfect Circle Eat the ElephantWill give it a few more listens before settling on this but first impression incredibly dissappointed. All of the decent tracks were singles and the remainder of the album and its weird attempts at pop borders on embarassing.rClings on as the singles are decent tracks but seriously don't know what to think about the rest yet.Battling Delirium LocustIt would be fair to say it wears its influences on its sleeves I'll give it that. If you like earlier Tool stuff then you will probably like this, it is essentially the same thing but with a slightly less engaging vocalist and occasionally muddy production.La Dispute VancouverMatt Kivel last night in americaPianos Become the Teeth Wait For LoveTiny Moving Parts Breathe
