Opus DeiLaibach

Rated 4/10

Interesting but exhausting. Never heard any Slovenian band but the voice was cool, even if the music is not truly incredible, it has personnality.

An important album, that is quite interesting. Sometimes it sounds of its time and dated, (moutain of things is not great) but it taps in timelessness at plenty of other times. Probably nowhere more than with the political statements, that are still relevant today, which is incredibly sad.
At the end of the day, I think she had stuff to say, said it in a simple way that is still vibrant. There is ambition and a point of view, but the album may lack a bit of originality musically to be a truly absolute standout.

The start I love, and it is kinda cool. I fear a 3 is harsh, but the end drags quite a bit. The lyricism takes a turn, and a more absurd one that I don't find very intersting.

Interesting throughout, loved listening to it. I struggle to find something to be mad about, the production is great, the melodies are hitting and it sounds like nothing else. The diversity is my favorite part, and in a way it is so kaleidoscopic it coud be anything you would want really. My smallest grip is that Animals is a bit of a dudd, but pop off kings.

I wish we lived in a world where everyone were gentle enough that they could feel the simple sweetness, the beautiful warmth, that is harnessed here.

An album so referential that it feels unnecessary, very little hooks and a lot of it doesn't resonate as genuine or sincere to me. The bit of the Missy Exclusive is not fun either. Not for me

Live Through ThisHole

Rated 10/10

This album is focused, packed with emotions and lyricism, and quite the punch of ambition. Very little to complain about.

Interesting throughout, the experimentation I love. It has ambition and some shape. The album might be a tad exhausting, and some songs are not for me but I do recognize the greatness and the vision

Like the swing, most of it is super cool, but a few song are a bit unnecessary in my opinion and kind of drag the thing. Great, yes but not a no skip by any mean

BummedHappy Mondays

Rated 6/10

It has moments, and I think people are too harsh on it, but it does get very annoying at times. The sound may be grating, but it is quite different.

I didn't expect to like this as much as I did. I think the 80's is probably my least favorite decade of music, but this album is special. Take on me is I think THE defining hit of the decade, much like Seven Nation Army for the 00's, it's a generational hit I believe. But the rest is hella fun, espacially when you re listen to hit, I have only the small complaint that it gets tiresome at the tail end, but yeah fun :)

A pleasant surprise, my expectations were somewhat low, but this is fun, very diverse and entertaining. It's not perfect, lots I don't like, but it takes swings and I like that. It sounds quite distinctively them, though I don't their sound all that well. I don't know, I think it's 3,5, but I'm feeling generous

Man this drags. Can't say I hated it. I got through it, but it was challenging and I am sure I never will listen again. I understand why you would include a drum and basse album but this one feels dated and not creative
