appreciated the real instruments on the tracks, otherwise not alot stood out to me. venom was the only song i really enjoyed

didnt like this as much as i expected to. its got some solid tracks but a few really felt like filler which is sad on a 35 minute album. still pretty enjoyable overall.

not what i expected based on the artist name, album name and cover art. some cool beats most of which dont really progress over the runtime of the tracks which make for a very unenjoyable experience. i really thought i was going to have to take a break from listening halfway through so i wouldnt fall asleep.

Rated 8/10

reading about this album i expected to like it a lot more than i did. sadly it did not live up to expectations thought id still take it over the majority of albums on here

this album surprised me in the best way. i had heard the singles before and thought they were fine but listening to them in context of the album really highlighted them. her voice is great and fits the style of the songs really well. the runtime is long but i was actually enjoying the album so much i barely noticed. there were a few weak songs that couldve been cut to keep it closer to the 60 minute mark but overall i was very impressed with this one

Rated 6/10

this was fine. they really leaned into the noise rock thing more than i remember them doing on other albums.

this was incredibly tough to get through for me. it felt more like slam poetry that a cohesive album. i appreciate that this was more about the lyrics than anything but lyrics cant carry an album. the tracks that actually focus a bit more on the instrumentals are really good. the rest are pretty minimalistic and tend to be a bit boring. two stars overall, plus one for the message.

this album had a few really great songs. the rest ranged from fine to good. realistically its a 3 but another girl, another planet gets it an extra star

probably my favorite of the three beastie boys albums weve had so far but similar issues as the other ones. good for a song or two but hard to listen all the way through.
