Mew have always been a bit overrated for me. This one was better than most other listens, but nothing amazing. 2.5/5

Pretty solid for what it is. Always loved Cannonball. 3.5/5

Another that I have always wanted to like more than I actually do. It is fine, but nothing more than average imo. 3/5

Some of the best background music out there. Have always enjoyed GY!BE, but hadn't listened to this one before. 3.5/5

Really nothing special. 2/5

I really don’t like Muse, but this wasn’t as bad as I expected. 2.5/5

More Tool. Pretty much the same as all the other Tool. Don’t need this much Tool. 2/5
Rated 8/10
A really solid album. Enjoyed it more on this listen than I had in the past. Not as great as Modern Vampires but very enjoyable. 4/5
Rated 8/10
Not as good as dummy, but still a solid listen. Appreciate that they moved from a sample based sound to a performed/written style but it still keeps a similar feel. 4/5
Rated 10/10
Is it possible that this album could be underrated at this point? Just a great collection of innovative and fun songs. By no means are POTUSOA the most talented musicians (if I remember they may only even use 3 strings on the guitar! and fewer on bass!) but they make it up with pure attitude. Great addition to the list! 4.5/5

Yet ANOTHER Porcupine Tree?! Who knew? This one may have been the best though...even though I think 3 albums is entirely unnecessary. 3/5

Seems to be standard TH. They were one band who I never really listened to in the past and was really excited to be exposed to give how big they are in Canada. It is just fine, but not sure why they are elevated to national treasure all the time. 3.5/5
Rated 4/10
I am sure it means a lot to some, but to me it was just mediocre and boring. 1.5/5
Rated 4/10
Pretty wild...kind of standard Arca though. Given their influence and work with so many big artists I have tried to listen in the past. Just never really find myself enjoying. 1.5/5
Rated 8/10
Loved it! Up there with the top Velvets. Dare I say I may have enjoyed it more than the other Lou Reed on the main list. Great attitude and music. 4.5/5
Rated 4/10
Kind of boring. Not my jam.. 1.5/5

The main novelty for me was that it was in Portuguese (I think). Otherwise it is run of the mill hip-hop adjacent music. 2/5
Rated 4/10
Pretty unremarkable. "just there" music but not unpleasing. 1.5/5
Rated 6/10
Tool is one I have never fully gotten into. Seems like I would like it more than I do…but it is largely ok. 3/5
