Peter Doherty in tier list I’ve decided I just don’t like Doherty’s voice. I think he gets away with it in his other projects, but not here. I just feel like there’s nothing going on here, it’s such a struggle to even listen well. I found myself tuning it out so thoroughly. I’d try toContinue reading “240: Peter Doherty (D-)”

239: Benson Boone (B)
Benson Boone in tier list I like him, I’m super open to him moving up the ranks. With another album or two for sure, and maybe even without. I feel like he’s about 50/50 (maybe 60/40) on higher energy pop songs that are super fun and catchy that I enjoy a lot, and slower songsContinue reading “239: Benson Boone (B)”

238: N.Flying (B+)
N.Flying in tier list they’ve got chunks of songs that I like, and chunks of songs that I think are pretty meh, and a couple of standout songs that are really quite fun. A lot of it felt very boyband-y to me, Western boybandy. Which, I’m not against the Western boyband sound, I think it’sContinue reading “238: N.Flying (B+)”

237: Babyshambles (B-)
Babyshambles in tier list it’s alright. I’m gonna give it a B-. It’s not bad, but it feels like it’s just more of the same. Both within itself, and compared to the Libertines. Sometimes that’s good, sometimes I’m really attached to the same and I just want more of it, but not this time, notContinue reading “237: Babyshambles (B-)”
236: Nicki Minaj (F)
Nicki Minaj in tier list I like to think I’m getting better at listening to hip hop/rap. I still mostly don’t like it, but I do think I’m getting better at it. It’s still tricky, though. I’m predisposed against the vulgarity by preference, but even if I weren’t it doesn’t make a lot of senseContinue reading “236: Nicki Minaj (F)”

235: Stolen Jars (A-)
Stolen Jars in tier list I think I’m gonna be a big fan. I’m rating this a little conservatively for now because the songs don’t mean anything to me yet, but they’re all totally my vibe. I am increasingly certain that to some degree I just like folk and folk adjacent sounds. It’s such aContinue reading “235: Stolen Jars (A-)”
234: Novo Amor (A)
Novo Amor in tier list I’m a fan, I’m in. I admit, I’d kinda lose track of it while I was listening, but I don’t think I attribute that to the music lacking anything. Whenever I did tune in a little more, I was impressed and interested. Enough that I just added each album toContinue reading “234: Novo Amor (A)”
