| While She Sleeps Self Hell | 1.5 |
| By far their worst album yet, and one of the worst metalcore albums I've heard over the last few years. I don't understand how they nosedived so quickly, but this was genuinely hard to finish listening to. |

Damn near close to being one of the best pop albums of the last few years - but the pacing is
boderline AWFUL. I have no problem with the occasional slow song, but for some reason they seem to
come in pairs on this album, which makes the tonal shifts all the more jarring when they happen.
When she's on, she's ON though. Really excited to see what else she does in her career. |
| Ariana Grande Eternal Sunshine | 1.5 |
| Jfc this is such a boring album. Even the upbeat songs are dragged down by her obnoxious, self-indulgent songwriting. I'll never understand the hype around Ariana Grande - it's like she hits a couple high notes and everyone loses their damn minds. |
| Too Close to Touch For Keeps | 3.0 |
| They probably would've been better off cutting about half the songs and making this an EP instead - the highlights are outstanding but there's also some lame, half-baked songs on here as well. Can't be too harsh though considering this is a post-humous release. |

| Holy hell! This album was awesome from start to finish, and is an improvement over their debut in nearly every way. The compositions are more interesting, the hooks are catchier, and the flow (which was my biggest gripe with their debut) is MUCH better. This is about as good as alt-rock gets in 2024. |

| Excellent follow up to her debut. Was a touch too preachy at times for my taste and it ends with kind of a whimper rather than a bang, but this is still solid as hell. |
| Hannah Diamond Perfect Picture | 1.5 |
| This album is 50% boring as hell, 50% obnoxious. The consistent use of autotune and pitch shifts is grating the longer you listen to it, and the hooks you'd expect from a pop album are almost nonexistent. If JOTW is right and this is an improvement over her debut, then it's safe to say I won't be listening to her debut anytime soon. |

Man, this album got off to TOO good of a start for its quality to drop off so drastically. It's
really too bad, because the first few songs are truly great - but the rest are just so dull and
forgettable.
But at face value, this is a decent enough grunge/alt-rock album. Can't be too harsh considering
it's a debut. |

It's a marginal improvement over Sour, but is weighed down by pretty much all the same things. The
songwriting is wildly inconsistent, with the low points being REALLY low. And there are far too
many ballads that screw with the album's flow.
But when the album hits, my goodness does it hit. She knows how to write a killer hook. Tons of
potential - hoping she can reach it someday. |

and I'm like, yeah I wish this album was better too. |
| Caroline Polachek Desire, I Want To Turn Into You | 3.0 |
| It's not bad - there's a few pleasant songs here. But this feels like pop music that's allergic to hooks, and because of that so many songs just sorta come and go without leaving any impression, good or bad. |

| My man just used "nu metal guitars" and "Britney Spears vocals" in the same sentence to describe a Rebecca Black album. Now I REALLY gotta check this shit out. |

| Yeah...this is pretty rough. I'll give them a pass because this was their debut EP and they would definitely go on to refine their sound over time, but I can't see myself going back to any of these songs if I'm being honest. |

When she elevates her songs beyond the typical standard of minimalistic, breathy, folk-pop, the
album is REALLY GOOD. But the majority of the album is very typical melodramatic, boring folk
music that drags the rest of it down.
I don't know, I didn't love this as much as others and I never got the appeal of Phoebe Bridgers
either. Maybe folk just ain't my thing. |

| The Callous Daoboys Celebrity Therapist | 4.5 |
| Miss May I Curse of Existence | 2.5 |
| Eh, starts off decent enough but this is about as formulaic as metalcore gets. Though that doesn't automatically make an album bad, in this case it kinda feels like you're hearing the same song done 10 different times. |

| Demi Lovato Holy Fvck | 2.0 |
I'll just be up front - I do NOT like Demi Lovato and she annoys the hell out of me a lot of the
time. With that said, I was fully expecting this album to be straight trash and it definitely
isn't that, so I'll get her some credit.
It's still not that good though, and it reeks of that sort of try-hard eDgInEsS and overproduction
that so many artists in this new wave of pop-punk have been guilty of. If she continues in this
direction though it should yield some interesting results. |

| All Time Low Don't Panic: It's Longer Now! | 4.0 |
| Panic! at the Disco Viva Las Vengeance | 1.5 |
Not quite as bad as the initial onslaught of 1's would have you think, but this still isn't great.
Sounds like Urie is running out of ideas and is just rehashing old ones, but hardly anything
stands out in a meaningful way.
EDIT: Okay, after giving it another listen and paying attention to the lyrics more, this is pretty
trash. |

| The individual songs kick so much ass, but there's something about the album's flow that just feels sort of...off? I don't know. I think there's a little too much filler/padding and some of the tonal shifts are a bit jarring. |
| Hollywood Undead Hotel Kalifornia | 2.0 |
| Twenty One Pilots Scaled and Icy | 2.0 |
| Pale Waves Unwanted | 3.5 |
This is an improvement over their last album in almost everyway - sure it's still very much Avril
Lavigne-core, but they're pulling it off way better now. It's too bad the quality slowly dips
throughout the album, because the first handful of tracks are kick-ass. |

| Has its moments, and it's very well written, but so many songs are overlong and feel almost unfinished. This was a nice experience, but I probably won't be returning. |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Omnium Gatherum | 3.5 |
| Finally got around to listening to this, and I'm pretty disappointed. For starters, it probably wasn't a good idea to release the best song on the album first, because it all seems to go downhill once you finish the opener. And this is WAY too disjointed - KGLW has proven to be a versatile band, but hearing the album jump from psychedelic, to indie pop, to thrash, to rap, and back again is incredibly exhausting. I'd honestly prefer either of their last three albums to this one. |
| The Venetia Fair Every Sick, Disgusting Thought... | 4.5 |
| Nova Twins Supernova | 3.5 |
| Blood Command Praise Armageddonism | 3.0 |
| This rating would probably be much higher if it weren't for one thing - the absolutely GRATING screams. Has some really catchy hooks and slaps quite a bit when she's using her cleans, but the screaming is absolutely awful. |
| Harry Styles Harry's House | 3.0 |
| orphantwin Future Classic | 3.5 |
| Coldrain Nonnegative | 3.0 |
| I've liked their past releases so I was hoping I'd like this more. And really it's not bad, but they could've afforded more variety since all the songs sort of blend together by the end. And the cover of Don't Speak was very disappointing, I thought they'd do literally ANYTHING different from the original song, but nope. |

| Alexisonfire Otherness | 4.5 |
| Shinedown Planet Zero | 3.0 |
| The Dear Hunter Antimai | 4.0 |
| This is definitely their most bombastic album yet, but the hooks are so good it's hard not to love. The downside is that a few songs meander a bit too much for my liking, but for the most part this is another hit for them. |

| Avril Lavigne Love Sux | 2.0 |
| Lol why is Avril Lavigne being praised so much for doing the same things that other aging pop-punk artists have been criticized for? Sure, there's some guilty pleasures, but the songwriting is cringey and disingenuous as hell, the features are horrible and unnecessary, and it just feels like she's trying WAY too hard. I guess this is better than her last two albums, but that is a hilariously low bar to clear. |
| Rolo Tomassi Where Myth Becomes Memory | 3.5 |
| Lights Siberia | 3.0 |
| Having just listened to this for the first time in 2022, I can understand why this was so well-received at the time. With that said, I feel like the over-the-top dubstep hasn't aged particularly well. Lights is still a great artist though. |

What a boring, lifeless album. Every time they start to do something remotely interesting, they
resort back to the same, bland, Sirius XM bullshit they've been doing for the last few years. I
would say I'm disappointed but I think even they knew this album was gonna suck; can't remember
the last time a band released only one song prior to an album's release. |

First three songs are all 5's in my book, then it sorta trails off by the end. Still an
outstanding EP though, and definitely Poppy's heaviest to date. Makes me hope they stick to this
sound moving forward, because this EP is a home run.
EDIT: Nevermind, this all slaps. |

| Definitely the best thing she's ever made (although the bar isn't that high). The 80's sound really works well for her, but there are definitely some duds to be found here too. It feels like she's pandering a little too hard to the 80's crowd by having features from Billy Idol and Joan Jett, and some of the slower songs miss the mark, but the highlights are VERY good. |

| Relient K The Anatomy of Tongue In Cheek | 2.0 |
| I don't fully understand the higher average for this album compared to their debut. While this isn't fully awful, it doubles down on the jesus loving and repetition, leaving me feel like they didn't really improve that much at all, despite some of the songs being catchy. |
| Seahaven Halo of Hurt | 4.0 |
| BRKN Love BRKN Love | 3.5 |
| Very solid hard rock album that starts and ends with a lot of energy. Only downside is that the middle loses a little bit of steam. But overall, I'm really looking forward to hearing from this band in the future. |
| Joy Division Unknown Pleasures | 3.0 |
Remove the rose-colored glasses, and what you get is a decent (but off putting) post-punk
album. The vocals are grating, and the minimalistic instrumentals get boring pretty fast.
The writing and atmosphere of the album is worth noting though. |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard K.G. | 4.0 |

| Easily the worst pop album of the year. I don't have the patience to sit down and write a review for this, so here are the cliffnotes: Some of the worst and most cliche songwriting (maybe ever), the same recycled minimalistic trap beats are used OVER AND OVER, and the hooks are honestly just annoying more often than not. The production is slick like any other pop record, but just about none of this actually works in any satisfying way for the listener. |

| The Hunna I'd Rather Die Than Let You In | 1.5 |
| Corey Taylor CMFT | 1.5 |
| Have any of us bothered to stop and ask...what does Corey Taylor think of this??? |
| King Mothership The Ritual | 3.5 |
| Has some noteworthy flaws (too much filler, inconsistent writing) but they're mostly rirrelevant considering how ambitions and interesting the rest of this album is. It has rgood vocals, unique (and great) instrumental work, and an absolutely KILLER back half. |

| Queen A Day at the Races | 4.0 |
| The Ocean Phanerozoic II: Mesozoic | Cenozoic | 3.5 |
| We Set Signals Ordo | 2.5 |
| Perhaps one of the most frustrating albums of the year so far. Should have been great; it has some quality hooks and instrumental performances. However, the production is this album's greatest downfall. Autotune where it shouldn't be, vocals drowned out in the mix, and the breakdowns are handled just horribly. Hopefully they can put out a more polished album next time. |
| Alpha Wolf A Quiet Place to Die | 4.0 |
| Deftones Ohms | 4.5 |
| Machine Gun Kelly Tickets to My Downfall | 1.5 |
| Turns out the album is pretty well represented by the cover: Machine Gun Kelly does his best Blink-182-esque pop-punk impression while maintaining all the same habits he had as a rapper, including horrible writing, over production, and needless filler. |
| IDLES Ultra Mono | 3.0 |
| Mike Shinoda Dropped Frames, Vol. 3 | 2.5 |

| Knuckle Puck 20/20 | 3.0 |
| Van Halen Van Halen | 4.5 |
| Movements No Good Left to Give | 2.5 |
| Has some stand outs, but does little to impress as a whole. The songwriting is good, but too many songs just don't do anything to remain interesting. As a whole, there's little reason to go back to this one. |

| Black Crown Initiate Violent Portraits of Doomed Escape | 3.5 |
| PRIZM All Night | 3.5 |
| Bury Tomorrow Cannibal | 3.5 |
| Point North Brand New Vision | 3.0 |
| Pretty solid, and could've probably gotten a half point more if it weren't so overproduced. Has some quality highlights, but also some very skippable moments. Looking forward to this band's future though. |
| Black Sabbath Paranoid | 4.5 |

| The Atomic Bitchwax Scorpio | 3.5 |
| Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds Skeleton Tree | 4.0 |
| Marilyn Manson We Are Chaos | 3.5 |
| Certainly gonna polarize people, but Manson does a good job of mixing new sounds with old. Sure it's mostly in a softer direction, but that turned out to not be such a bad thing. |
| Megadeth Countdown to Extinction | 3.5 |
| Deftones White Pony | 4.5 |
| Noija Through Fire All Things Are Renewed | 3.0 |
| This had so much potential; the vocals and songwriting and wonderful, but the album is held back by its bland, generic instrumentals and the overwhelming feeling of sameness from song to song that results from it. |
| Powerman 5000 The Noble Rot | 2.0 |

| Kate Bush The Kick Inside | 4.0 |
| Seether Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum | 3.5 |
| From Ashes To New Panic | 1.5 |
| This band wants so badly to be the bastard love-child of Hollywood Undead and Linkin Park. They normally say to not judge an album by its cover, but this is one of the rare instances where you can. |
| Blaqk Audio Beneath the Black Palms | 3.0 |
| Katy Perry Smile | 2.5 |
| I want to like this as much as everyone else here apparently does, but it just doesn't do it for me. Perry has shown signs of maturity and higher quality songwriting, sure, but the album is too consistently uninteresting to keep you hooked. A couple compelling highlights and some newfound maturity isn't enough to keep this from feeling painfully average. |

| Deftones Around the Fur | 4.0 |
| Deftones Adrenaline | 3.0 |
| Kill the Lights The Sinner | 3.5 |
| Very solid modern metalcore record with progressive tendencies. Album is at its best when it commits fully to being progressive. |
| Sleeping With Sirens How It Feels to Be Lost (Deluxe) | 1.5 |
| Album's decent enough, but this deluxe reissue is a pretty shameless cash grab. Only one new song?? That's a joke. |
| The Front Bottoms In Sickness and In Flames | 2.5 |
| In more ways than one, the production is this album?s downfall. Which is a shame, since there?s some quality tracks here. ?Jerk? and ?Bus Beat? are both some of the most annoyingly repetitive songs they?ve ever made though. |
| The Killers Imploding the Mirage | 3.0 |

| Orbit Culture Nija | 4.0 |
| Rain City Drive To Better Days | 3.5 |
| The Fall of Troy Mukiltearth | 3.5 |
| Stand Atlantic Pink Elephant | 1.5 |
| One of the biggest and most disappointing sophomore album nose-dives in a LONG time. Over-produced, poorly written, and a complete lack of flow in the second half make this one of the worst pop-punk albums (if you can even call it that) of the year so far. |
| The Fall of Troy The Fall of Troy | 4.0 |
| Crystal Lake The Voyages | 4.0 |

| My Chemical Romance Conventional Weapons | 4.0 |
| The Acacia Strain Slow Decay | 3.0 |
| Creeper Sex, Death and the Infinite Void | 3.5 |
| Very solid, well-written, and atmospheric blend of punk rock, indie, and post-punk. Only held back by an over-reliance on spoken word filler and occasionally below average instrumentation. |
| PVRIS White Noise (Deluxe Version) | 4.0 |
| Poppy Choke | 4.0 |
| Weezer The Black Album | 2.0 |
| Weezer Everything Will Be Alright in the End | 4.0 |
| Weezer Pacific Daydream | 2.0 |
| Jane's Addiction Nothing's Shocking | 3.5 |
| Great instrumentation throughout, and the psychedelic influences are awesome. I just feel like the album doesn't flow very well, and some filler could've been cut. |
| Static-X Shadow Zone | 3.0 |
| The Naked and Famous Recover | 2.5 |
| Talking Heads True Stories | 3.0 |
| Weezer Hurley | 3.5 |
| Neon Trees I Can Feel You Forgetting Me | 2.5 |
| Delain Apocalypse & Chill | 3.5 |
| A bit bloated, and suffers from inconsistent production quality. Otherwise though, this is a solid album. 'Combustion' alone boosted this rating up a half point. |
| Broadside Into the Raging Sea | 3.0 |
| Gulch Impenetrable Cerebral Fortress | 3.5 |
| Alien Ant Farm ANThology | 3.5 |
| Weezer Raditude | 2.0 |
| This is just the musical equivalent to that picture of Steve Buscemi with a skateboard over his back saying "how do you do fellow youths?" |
| Static-X Machine | 3.5 |
| THICK 5 Years Behind | 2.5 |
| Painfully average punk-rock album. Hides their lack of any real fresh ideas behind progressive messages that lack any true subtlety or meaning. |
| Neck Deep All Distortions Are Intentional | 2.0 |
| First and last songs are probably the best, but yeesh the production on this is rough. Too much autotune throughout, and there are some effects used that would sound cheesy on mid-2000's dance-pop album. Hopefully the band can bounce back from this obvious misstep. |
| Weezer The Red Album | 2.5 |
| Does something that no other Weezer album does: features some good epics of 5+ minutes, but pretty much everything else sounds like it's on autopilot. Features some of the worst songwriting of Weezer's career up until this point. |
| Trapt Shadow Work | 1.5 |
| Weezer Make Believe | 2.0 |
| Godspeed You! Black Emperor F♯ A♯ ∞ | 4.5 |
| Weezer Maladroit | 3.5 |
| Weezer The Green Album | 3.0 |
| Ellie Goulding Brightest Blue | 1.5 |
Side A: Boring and slow pop-ballads, way more filler than should be legally allowed, and
a few bright spots.
Side B: Repetitive and uninteresting beats, terrible songwriting, and an overwhelming
feeling of desperation to stay relevant in the mainstream pop scene.
This album makes one hour feel like three. |
| Static-X Wisconsin Death Trip | 4.0 |
| Amarionette [US] Sunset On This Generation | 3.0 |
| If I Were You Radiant Dark | 2.5 |
| Has a few highlights, but the bulk of the album can't do anything to stand out from any other metalcore album you've heard in the last 10 years. |
| Jessie Ware What's Your Pleasure? | 3.5 |
| Memphis May Fire This Light I Hold | 2.5 |

| PVRIS Paris | 4.5 |
| Weezer Pinkerton | 4.5 |
| Weezer Weezer | 4.0 |
| PVRIS Use Me | 2.0 |
| Their first major misstep. Starts off well enough, but the fact of the matter is that if it weren't for the middle three songs (Death of Me, Hallucinations, and Old Wounds), which all came out last year, this would be a major disappointment. The non-singles just can't do anything interesting to stay on par with everything else, aside from maybe January Rain. |

| Dua Lipa Future Nostalgia | 3.0 |
| Not quite sure if I understand the hype behind this one. This ranges from retro-sounding dance pop to your typical modern pop fare. Some tracks are great, but others are simply bland and forgettable. Unfortunately the weak ending doesn't help either. |

At its worst, it's cringey !3OH3!-esque dance pop with mind-numblingly bad writing, and

more toward the bad side, even though there are some notable highlights that keep it
from being fully terrible.

| Even with me trying to be nice, this album's a chore to finish. Uses every overdone idea from the early 2010's metalcore/post-hardcore scene, but doesn't add anything new or interesting. Maybe this band would've picked up some steam had they released this in 2011 or something. |

| A very repetitive, boring album from a band that once showed decent potential. This has some of the most boring instrumentation I've heard in a long time, and every song has some word or phrase that's repeated in the chorus over and over and over again. I wanted to at least enjoy it a little, but even the songwriting is boring and cheesy throughout the whole album. |

| Korn The Nothing | 3.5 |
| Every bit as consistently solid as TSoS, but with a few missteps along the way. The interludes really didn't need to be included at all, and the ending was very underwhelming. |

| It's better than Reputation, and has a few good songs. But it's too all over the place, like she wants to satisfy everybody, and her songwriting hasn't changed or improved in like 15 years. |

| Painfully short, yet still finds a way to add unnecessary filler. The high points feature some of their best songs, but there's too many boring ones that counter them. |
| Beartooth B-Sides | 3.5 |
| The All-American Rejects Send Her To Heaven | 3.0 |
| Send Her to Heaven was outstanding, DGAF is sorta cringey and forgettable, and Demons was pretty solid. Definitely a surprise for this band to out such a solid release in 2019. |

| It gets off to a slow and kinda weird start, but once it gets going it stays consistently solid throughout. A lot more garage-rock sounding than past releases, with a few songs being reminiscent of bands like The White Stripes. Overall a really impressive album, best songs are Medicine State Garden, Fever Dream, and Great Party. |

This essentially feels like Emotion 2.0 in a lot of ways, which isn't a bad thing. The album
finds itself in a grey area between being well-produced and overly produced though, and
there's maybe one or two songs I could've done without. Those things aside, it's catchy and
fun and a great follow up to Emotion. |

| Decent enough debut EP, Eilish has a ton of potential. She kinda feels like a one-trick pony though, and clearly has room to grow and mature as an artist. Awesome start though! |

| I wanted to like this album a whole lot more, but it felt like it was lacking something. Too many of the songs are over before you really get the chance to enjoy them, though the album has some amazing high points. Some of my favorites were 'Pink Snot,' 'Ew Jersey,' and 'It's A Process.' |

| Yeesh, this album is a mess. It's like they took the few things that they're last two albums got right and replaced them with all the things they're last few albums got wrong. Not one song is memorable in any good way, and this can't help but feel like a waste of talent for Patrick Stump, who still remains a great singer through all this. |
| Marilyn Manson The Pale Emperor | 4.0 |
| Marmozets Knowing What You Know Now | 3.0 |
| Certainly not a bad album by any means, but my goodness this is a step down from their stellar debut. The ferocity and edge of their first album has almost all been replaced by generic-sounding hard rock that any other band could have done. The saving grace for this album is that at least it's hard rock that's pretty fun to listen to. |
| The Used The Canyon | 4.0 |
| Call me crazy, but this might be their best album. Way more creative and ambitious than I would have expected. Sure the production is a little wacky, but I like the raw feel to it. |

| Credit where credit is due, it legit sounds like Falling In Reverse is trying to become better, and you can really hear it. It has a lot of the same problems as previous albums, but is definitely an improvement in lyricism/vocals/overall fun. Went back and forth between 3 and 3.5, would give it a 3.2 if I could. |

| This is surely a fun album to listen to, with some great stand-out tracks. However, there are also a few points where the album stoops down to mediocrity. Overall, this is by no means a bad album, but isn't as good as it had the potential to be. |
| My Chemical Romance The Black Parade/Living with Ghosts | 1.0 |
