Album Review: Machine Gun Kelly – Tickets to My Downfall

Admittedly, even though Machine Gun Kelly is from my neck of the woods, I’ve never really given his music much of a chance in the past. A large part of that has to do with the fact that he’s primarily a rapper, which just isn’t really my cup of tea. Yes, I’ve seen him at rock and emo shows, both as a fan and as a performer, but I just attributed that to the fact that he was local. Turns out, he can make some really good emo and punk music! Let his new album, Tickets to My Downfall, put all your fears to rest.

PEN15 Seasons 1 and 2A

Ever since this Hulu comedy aired, I seen nothing but praise for it, so I figured it was finally time to check PEN15 out! Straight off the bat I could understand why critics loved this show, but I imagine the casual viewer was probably extremely uncomfortable by most of this show. I personally found myself somewhere in the middle of the spectrum, although the first half of the second season really got me hooked.

Servant Season 2

Ah this show! Perhaps this half hour horror/drama is something I would like to binge all at once. Each episode of Servant is suspenseful, and the past few weeks I was so bummed I had to wait a whole week for the next installment. To be fair, when I started the second season five episodes in, I had totally forgot that Apple+ aired their shows weekly. I guess that’s what I get for watching a bunch of their first season shows all at once.

Fan Art Friday: Sebastian Stan

This week’s fan art Friday could also be considered a flashback Friday, as well, considering I posted this drawing not even a year ago. However, I felt the need to post it again because of Disney+ and Marvel’s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier coming out today! Sebastian Stan is the only member of the core cast that I’ve drawn, so I’m afraid that’s all you’re getting…for now! I haven’t watched the show yet, but it’s definitely on my radar for tonight. Hopefully it’s as satisfying as WandaVision was!

Album Review: Kings of Leon- When You See Yourself

What a surprising treat this album turned out to be! I must say, in the past I’ve been a fair-weather fan of Kings of Leon, but they may have just forced me to give their entire catalog a fair listen with their first release in about five years, When You See Yourself. If your first single can hook me the way “The Bandit” did, then you’re onto something good!
