Post Orgasmic ChillSkunk Anansie

8/10

Maybe it's just because my expectations were set really low, but I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. It's not great by any sense of the word, but there's some really good metal energy. Good for a metal deep dive.

Diamond LifeSade

2/10

I have no clue what y'all are smoking because this album is absolute shit. It's just about everything wrong with '80s music. It's lame, it's not deep at all, and the only reason people kept listening to it was because it was on the radio. I can't even describe it, but there is something completely wrong with the sound. It's bad and so so so so so cheesy.

Lorde crosses the bridge from exploring different themes to making every song off the album about relationships. The result is a very generic modern pop album that sounds like everything else I've heard on modern pop radio, which is a step back from her previous work. I'll admit, I had hopes when 'Green Light' was the opening track, but 'Sober' and 'Homemade Dynamite' made me lose admiration real quickly. The second half exhibited some decent songwriting, but it suffered, as did the first half, from poor and generic producing. I swear I've heard that exact same pattern of electronic drum beats followed by no drums in everything else that's popular right now.
