Arcade Fire – We, Album Review
After what seems like a lifetime and a pandemic obsession, Arcade Fire has finally released a new album! With the excitement of a new record also came the disappointment in learning that Will Butler left the band after the recording of the album. I’m seriously super bummed about that. But anyway, here’s my thoughts on We.
Read moreDouble Album Review: The Linda Lindas & Wet Leg
This was originally just going to be a review of the new album, Growing Up, by The Linda Lindas, but then the Youtube algorithm shoved Wet Leg’s self-titled debut in my face, so now you get two for the price of one. It’s also helpful because it’s hard to elaborate on the phrase, “the whole album is amazing,” because they both were. But I’ll try.
Read more2022 Grammys
Frankly, I wasn’t planning on watching this year’s Grammy Awards, but then at the last minute hit record on my DVR. The reason being is this: over the last several years the Grammys have become a top 40 showcase, just like every other, lesser music-based awards shows. And that sucks.

Even though I am going to see Wallows over the summer, I was a little nervous to hear their full-length sophomore effort.

Read moreBad Suns – Apocalypse Whenever Album Review
It’s been a hot minute since Bad Suns released an album! In all honesty, Mystic Truth was kind of a disappointment for me, so I was really nervous about how the band’s new music would sound. But, if there few singles were anything to go by, then I was in good hands. And now I can say with certainty that Apocalypse Whenever is a solid return to form for Bad Suns – yay!
Read moreMiles Kane – Coup De Grace Album Review
Given that Miles Kane’s latest album, Change the Show, dropped this past Friday, I figured now was as good a time as any to get caught up on his previous works. Thus, I listened to the colorful Coup De Grace.
Read moreDan Black – Do Not Revenge Album Review
Back during my senior year of high school, Dan Black’s debut album, Un, was on repeat in my car for at least a full year. It was something my sister and I legitimately never grew tired of, and we still love it to this day. Somehow, his follow-up album, some seven years later slipped under our radar, but now I’m finally giving Do Not Revenge its time in the sun.
