YAY! Great album! If you like pop-punk, you like olivia rodrigo. though sometimes her lyrics are so clunky, like on ballad of a homeschool girl "can't think of a third line/la la la la la la." The guitars on love is embarrassing are so tasty and the mixing on that track is just out of this world.

Ophelia is a fucking stupid pile of shit. The Lumineers is one of those stomp clap hey bands that made the middle 2010 unbearable to listen to the radio. That fucking sucked.

goofy ambient album that was ahead of its time and saw the indie rock tidal wave coming at it. Big for the indie rockers but this one can go on its merry way for me.

This is rad. Senegal Fast Food reminds me of the song Me Gusta Tu by Manu Chao, which as I type this i look at the damn album cover and realize it is the same dude. great job. What a solid album! so fun!

Rings is sick! This album is sick, what a storyteller this is. the sampling is deep and layered. would need a relisten after i go further into his work! so cool.

I know I am going to love this album. Boogie Wonderland is transcendent. Very excellent but I don't think its a 5 for me.

A good, fun, and nostalgic album for me. Cousins will always have a special section in my heart. Though, ultimately, this is fancy boy rock music for a fancier frillier time and I am not a fancy boy and these are not frilly times.

Never been a Brand New kinda guy, but there is enough lyrically to keep me around and pass this one around.

This was boring as hell. The best part was when it was over.

Produced by the guy that would found Trans Siberian Orchestra. Shreddy metal with lots of high tenor wailing if that's what you are into. Title track is probably the best one on here. The anti drug anthem White Witch might actually do more damage by being a genuinely fun track that would make people want to do cocaine. You hear a lot of the inspiration for And Nothing Elese Matters by Metallica on Last Dawn. This grew on me as it went by.

This shit is so good. MMMM!

This is the Oh Yeah band?! oh man this went from good to great 3 tracks in. Domingo is a mood.

As classic as they come. And actually with a lot of chops, not overly saccharine. Good shit.

This album is lyrically a fucked up and beautiful creation. I need like 15 more relistens to really get with it.

Astronaut is a cool track as is Handige Tante - Jongen Met Geld. The homespun, low production makes for a real homey and heartfelt record. It was nice but pretty ancillary to me.

god shoegaze is boring as hell.

Benediction is a great song.

Really a wild listen. Uber polished, in 14 languages?!, has Bjork, and contains elements of opera, pop, electronica, rap, and orchestra arrangements. If there ever was maximalist music in 2025, this is it.

Absolute classic Al.

not my thing, also what the fuck is that grinding bear sound on Amazing Grace?!
