339: Yam Haus (A-)

Yam Haus in tier list They were an opener when I saw 253: Sammy Rae & The Friends (A-) in concert… what, three and a half years ago, now? Dang. Anyway, I liked them enough to put them on my list, then I mostly forgot about them since they didn’t have enough songs released for meContinue reading “339: Yam Haus (A-)”

338: The Long Winters (B+)

The Long Winters in tier list I’m gonna put these guys at a B+ for now, but I could see them getting to an A-. That said, I could also see them sticking at a B+, or even going down to a B, so I guess we’ll see how it goes. I liked each albumContinue reading “338: The Long Winters (B+)”

337: The Offspring (B-)

The Offspring in tier list My overwhelming feeling is that I like this well enough, I guess? Like, that’s the feeling: “I like this well enough, I guess?” Question mark included as part of the feeling. It’s so much stuff that I mostly like, but that blends together to the point that I just loseContinue reading “337: The Offspring (B-)”

336: PinkPantheress (C)

PinkPantheress in tier list I almost like it. I kinda like it? I almost like it a lot? I don’t know. I’ll have my moments while listening to it where I really think it’s cool and interesting, where I’m really enjoying it, and then I’ll have my moments where it feels stale and robotic. Or,Continue reading “336: PinkPantheress (C)”

335: Ne-Yo (C-)

Ne-Yo in tier list I like it well enough, pretty good. I’ve got a lot more to say than that, but broadly I think that’s true. It’s pretty decent. There’s a handful of songs I like a lot, and most of the songs I think are at least alright. I think with most of Ne-Yo’sContinue reading “335: Ne-Yo (C-)”

334: Stereosity (A)

Stereosity in tier list They’ve only got one album, New Life Will Grow, but it slaps. I heard a song or two of theirs that popped up on YouTube. I liked it a lot, and the album definitely holds up. It very much fits the mold of math rock, as I continue to understand it—changingContinue reading “334: Stereosity (A)”

333: Magdalena Bay (A)

Magdalena Bay in tier list This is kinda a toss up, in terms of the specific place I put it in the As. I know I want it to be a high A; more than that, I couldn’t really say. I don’t think the particular placing matters that much, means that much. It can’t, y’know?Continue reading “333: Magdalena Bay (A)”

332: Rooftops (A-)

Rooftops in tier list There’s just the one album, A Forest of Polarity. I listened to it four times; it’s pretty short and it’s the only album, so I figured I might as well. It sounds like math rock, I think, it fits the feel. A little bit, I don’t have much more to sayContinue reading “332: Rooftops (A-)”

331: Sarah and the Sundays (A-)

Sarah and the Sundays in tier list These guys had me constantly playing the “who does this sound like” game with myself. I kept feeling like there was someone they sounded so much like and I just could never place it. Their first album reminded me of Ivers, and also someone else I couldn’t getContinue reading “331: Sarah and the Sundays (A-)”

330: Roxette (C)

Roxette in tier list I think this is almost certainly too harsh a ranking. Throughout all the time I was listening to them, I had them pretty locked into my head as a B or a B-. But then, I was looking at my other artists and kinda going through those comparisons and trying toContinue reading “330: Roxette (C)”
