Some parts have a wee bit of a gothic sensibility which I rather like. Groovy parts, with my favourite being the skellington song. However, I feel the actual music is a bit too heavy for the singing. I preferred the acoustic versions at the end more than the actual tracks

Rated 8/10

Enjoyed this a lot. Fun tracks that don't outstay their welcome, and I liked when that one exploded at the end hehe

DJing ain't a real skill: that's why every single celeb does it (including Rupaul). I don't see what the point of taking music from the 80s and stripping it of all structure and fun is exactly.

Parts of this kinda sound like the DK rap.

Did I enjoy the rapping-type stuff? No. But did I enjoy the backing tracks? Also no. Oh well

Groovy baby! I'm just a symptom of the moral decay that's eating of the heart of the country... So true. Final song was too long

My beef with the Arctic Monkeys is long-standing and continues today alas (not with monkeys in the snow irl tho, they slay). For me, this music turns up at every bar/club in the norf of England, and it's always the point where you either go to the loo or go to get a drink. You can't dance to it in a homosexual manner, you can sort of thrash your body around I guess in a heterosexual way. Every song sounds the same to me, and I take umbridge with the singing voice. It's probably a pass, but I'm gonna fail it x.

Sorry you died love but it was a bit dull. Alas did not capture my wee heart in the way I think it should. Nice singing and musics and yet.... it did nothing for me. Sorry to this man

Fight the power fr fr. Nice stuff! Actually thoroughly enjoyed this despite having low hopes due to it's genre. Great message, and without that stupid ego that you get in hip hop of the 90s. Good samples and all x

Aye, good, solid fun here. Reminds me of my old Oxfam days. Songs are quite similar innit but they gel well and I never looked at the track list during it (just enjoying the vibe)

Besties, you might be able to say that this sounds interesting, but you can't say it sounds good, can you?

Just a lot of "instrumental" that I don't like the sound of.

So I'm gonna try and say something smart and it's gonna come out dumb. The psychedelic guitar sections make it sound like its transcends time, because this music belongs both to now and also feels like some of the best parts of the 60s and the 70s. The voices blending in also helps with this vibe.

He's a fantastic wee singer and composer and such, everything feels meticulously crafted to produce this unique vibe.
I lived, laugh, loved it x

Reviews are like "it's so much more fun than the gangsta rap of the 90s!", and I'm like "yeah, that's true". But if that section of 4 Better or 4 Worse is your idea of fun then you need to be locked in a psychotic hospital. Transphobia had me worried early on, but the horribleness peaked there. How do so many men of the hip hop scene have such inflated egos, like every woman instantly wants to be stripped naked and beaten by you? You're mid! Nobody cares about you! Write something from the heart! It went from offensive to inoffensive in sections, so it gets a 2.

Hmmm I usually prefer more Peace and Love in my music, and less horrific doctrine that's been destroying all sense of community during my wee lifetime. Sorry boys, it's probably worth a 3, but you deserve to be punished for peddling Rand
