Sort by: Rating | Release Date | Rating Date | Name5.0 classicJoy Division Unknown PleasuresCloser has its merits (and its fans) for having a slightly more eclectic sound, but this album has the superior songwriting and flow. rIf you only listen to one song listen to: Disorder, it's one of the best album leadoffs I've ever heard, and is a decent summation of the band as a whole. The Strokes Is This ItThe gold standard for modern guitar pop rock... where each track flows from one well-rehearsed, succinct, and charismatic song to the next.rIf you only listen to one song listen to: Barely Legal; it has an overly simplistic riff-voice tradeoff that is as fun as it is repetitive. 4.5 superbCamp Cope Camp CopeA raw mix of political anguish, personal tragedy, and confused anxiety drives a project that is perhaps shorter than it should be.rIf you only listen to one song listen to: Song for Charlie; a spacious, autobiographic tale exploring personal loss and the scraps of courage required to face it.Hop Along Bark Your Head Off, DogWell written, energetic, and jam-packed with Quinlan's always detailed songwriting. rIf you only listen to one song listen to: Prior Things; an effective closer that has become a signature for every Hop Along project.3.5 greatModern Baseball SportsModern Baseball Holy Ghost3.0 goodModern Baseball You’re Gonna Miss It All2.5 averageCamp Cope How to Socialise and Make FriendsThis is an album padded out by already existing (and superior in their original form) solo songs by Maq, making it a somewhat disappointing follow-up to their infectious debut.rIf you only listen to one song listen to: Animal & Real; it captures the awkward fears that encapsulate the best Camp Cope songs, providing the vulnerability that makes them interesting.
