| Wow... this is fucking insane. Even though I can see why I'd never heard of it. Anomaly is a set of four beastly journeys filled with comically unique, almost campy instrumentation. Flutes, all kinds of brass, a fucking slide whistle solo? The album's messages come from the fantasy-inspired storybook lyrics, and their vocal delivery, both crooned and spoken, both sounding absurdly legit. But the songs also set aside plenty of time for those magical 70s prog jams, with all the build-ups and explosions executed masterfully. Put simply, Anomaly is delightfully bonkers. |

| Titus Andronicus The Monitor |
| Lyrically, The Monitor is an absolute delight, but musically, while for the most part being infectious, visceral, and spine-tingling, it's a bit too bombastic for its own good. There's lots of great licks everywhere on the album, but they're often carried on for too long, or have too much other stuff put on top of them. The album is too raw and dirty, and speaks of times too troubled for over-epic and over-long piano intros to not sound just a bit out of place. And "The Battle of Hampton Roads" did not need to be 14 minutes long. Sorry. |

With Inmazes, Vola has given us a delicious progressive metal outing layered with thick,
groovy riffs; pristine, soaring vocals, and tasteful electronics. But the really cool thing about
it is that all its parts are so thoroughly integrated that it doesn't come off as subversive so
much as what metal may be "supposed" to sound like here in 2015. It sounds
like what metalheads of the 80s might've imagined the "metal of the future" to sound like. |

| La Dispute Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between Vega and Altair |
| This album is filled with great moments. Schizophrenic, disjointed, and occasionally cheesy, but great. The album seems to floor most of its first-time listeners due to its breathtaking lyrics and heartfelt, powerful execution. But repeated listens reveal that the songwriting here is extremely all-over-the-place, which is why I've brought down my rating of it from a 4.5 to a 3.5. Awesome, memorable moments pop up all over the place, but they're rarely expanded upon or connected to another. While I still listen to the album for those moments that excite me (there's actually a great deal of them, they're just, like I said, hardly ever tied to other parts of the song they're in), and also for the amazing lyrics, this whole decrease in my enjoyment of it has been pretty disappointing. Here's to improving your songwriting skills, La Dispute. |
| La Dispute Wildlife |
| I was wishing and hoping and praying that La Dispute would get rid of their bad songwriting habits and fully realize their colossal potential (or at least realize it moreso), with their new album, Wildlife, and to my elation, they have done just that. Parts are repeated more often (admittedly not as much as I'd hoped for, but it's definitely still an improvement) to give the songs more unity, and parts are also given much more time to breathe, resulting in build-ups and climaxes that are genuinely affecting, and actually pretty damn epic, too. Also, those disjointed, incoherent quirks that the band's debut was loaded with are virtually gone on Wildlife. The songs on this album feel much more like songs, rather than Somewhere at the Bottom of the River's collections of vocalist and band stomping all over each other. And the lyrics are incredible, as expected. I think if the band keeps progressing at this rate, they may have a true classic in 'em. Here's to getting even better, La Dispute. |

| Don't let the sickly enticing artwork, the decidedly obscure song titles, or the shrewdly unpretentious band name fool you: the places where this album wanders are well within charted territory. It's got jarring juxtapositions, alright; questionably harsh quiet-loud transitions offset by moments of bizarre, timid beauty. But there's plenty of textureless, meat-headed riffage to break your teeth on as well. In the album's quest for eccentricity, it approaches mindlessness. It's interesting, and dare I say fun at times, but it doesn't measure up to what the rest of its design seems to promise. I'll definitely be checking what these guys do next, though. They've piqued me that much. |

| Tyler, the Creator Goblin |
| Am I that out of touch with what's been lurking into the mainstream lately, or is Tyler really as infamous as he makes himself out to be on this album? Is all the bitching he does here about parents blaming him for their rebellious and disobedient kids really...valid? Because according to what I've seen and read, I don't think it is. And that, in turn, makes a large chunk of this album extremely off-putting and vaguely...irritating. If all the whining is valid though, this album is still pretty lame. Tyler only seems to create a good flow when he's focusing on wordplay ("Yonkers" and "Tron Cat" being the two best examples), and a lot of times, those words he's playing with deal with stupid, trite, uninteresting bullshit. He tries so hard to pull off that consciously-trying-to-shock-but-justifying-it-by-calling-it-"dark humor" persona, but he does it so awkwardly and so unsubtly, that a lot of times, his words seem to fall to the ground before he even says them. He gets so angry at all these people who supposedly "take him too seriously," but seems to take that sentiment more seriously than anything else he says on the album. Honestly, if it wasn't for "Yonkers" and "Tron Cat," this would be a 2, maybe even lower. With Goblin, Tyler just tries way too hard. |
