Brand New Science Fiction |
Brand New evade the hype train by releasing a record out of nowhere, which was a good play. The record is fine, engrossing and emotive as per usual yet lacks the energy of early records that made us fall in love with our beloved Brand New. They played their hand correctly if this is their last record, and honestly I love it, just not amazed. |

Love listening to the record, but I feel as if DGD are having trouble reconciling their sound with all of their the influences present.r3.3 |

Rather homogeneous in it's sound yet capturing such a beautiful catharsis in music, Cope is a great record that is as easy to consume as a candy bar. |

The record starts of amazingly with "Chamber The Cartridge", maintaining a decent consistency through the middle but damn--those last few tracks--are fucking beautifully crafted; namely the final three. |
Say Anything Hebrews |
Is this record relevant without knowing anything about the band
prior to this record? Why the fuck is his fucking wife on every fucking song? Is
she really contributing anything that another artist couldn't? Bemis, you are still
kind of lame. |

When it comes down to it, Schoolboy Q delivers much more than songs about rap tropes. |

Canadian Softball Awkward and Depressed |
It's all made me chuckle, and some of the tracks (Average Joe, Great Again, Pink Wednesday) feel like parody as much as genuine pop-punk, which is nice, but all together it just feels like too much. It is done well, performed well yet not so cohesive in sound as it is parody, which may be okay for some. But the humor does not disguise the fact that it feels all over the place; even if it's trying to make fun of every facet of pop-punk it still feels like there is no centric nature to the record. Which bugs me. May not bug others. Idk, fuck it. I like it. |
Deltron 3030 Event II |
Lacks the urgency of the first Deltron release. Del lacks the finesse he once had for making the material of Deltron's universe as captivating as it once was; he seems to have focused too much on referencing the first album rather than really establishing a transformation for himself. |
Genghis Tron Cloak of Love |
Girl Talk All Day |
I love listening to this record but I don't love how he samples some of the worst songs yet. "Single Ladies" and the Rihanna sample made me cringe.r3.3ish. |
Killswitch Engage As Daylight Dies |
Riff Raff Neon Icon |
Exactly the kind of album you would come to expect from the ICON. |

It only gets lame when Bemis tries to seem enlightened and unfortunately he does that a lot on this album. |
