41. Radiator Hospital- Can’t Make Any Promises
I really didn’t think that they would release an album 10 years after Something Wild that could successfully hit even close to how that album hits for me. I’m not saying this 2023 release is the same, but the original … Continue reading

I really didn’t know how I was going to handle this album to be honest. It was some of the best R&B released this year, but I had a hard time having any of it really stick with me. I … Continue reading

32. saturdays at your place- always cloudy
I don’t see myself ever weaning off of emo, there will always be at least one or two releases a year that I will hook onto that fit into the category. It was fun to learn one of my old … Continue reading
31. Wednesday- Rat Saw God
What a way to start an album; “Hot Rotten Grass Smell” is a pungent description that I have a hard time not immediately picturing every time I read the title. The album definitely hit like what I imagine the smell … Continue reading
