Cage the Elephant in tier list really like the first album, also like the other four but not as much, or they’re different and tricky for comparing. RELISTEN1: on a relisten, I like everything a lot more, really solid RELISTEN2: very very good. I think in my brain I mostly liked it all a lot,Continue reading “64: Cage the Elephant (A→S→A+)”

Band: The Killers (S+)
The Killers are my favorite band, and they likely will never stop being my favorite band. It’s possible I’ll hate every future song they ever release; it’s possible I find another band that just blows them out of the water; it’s possible they’ll turn out to be actual, literal murderers. There will still be aContinue reading “Band: The Killers (S+)”
63: Sting (A)
Sting in tier list albums 2, 4, and 5 are truly excellent, Ten Summoner’s Tales is so so good, he has so many fantastic individual songs- but he also has a ton of other albums that range from pretty good to alright that bring down the average
62: The Police (B-→C)
The Police in tier list got some classics but mostly just fine and not great RELISTEN1: I feel I had a pretty solid handle on this band before this relisten, on how they sound and how I feel about them. But, I was thinking about them and I realized they’d fit much better as aContinue reading “62: The Police (B-→C)”
61: Bad Suns (A-→B)
Bad Suns in tier list songs a little repetitive/long at times but consistent and good with a bunch of particularly good ones (second album in particular). plus, I like the sound of the guy’s voice RELISTEN1: I don’t care enough about them as artists. Too repetitive and samey within songs, just too meh. A goodContinue reading “61: Bad Suns (A-→B)”
60: MIKA (A→A-→B+)
MIKA in tier list consistent, fun, some really great songs RELISTEN1: I still like him, think he’s good, but he gets a little repetitive, and just all around fits better in A- than A RELISTEN2: still do like him, but yeah he’s consistently just not quite where I want him to be, barring a fewContinue reading “60: MIKA (A→A-→B+)”
59: Jukebox the Ghost (B+→A-)
Jukebox the Ghost in tier list right on the edge, starts solidly B+ but moves toward A-, consistent with a fair amount of songs that are pretty good) (most recent album moves toward B I think, not bad but not the parts of JtG I like) RELISTEN1: this was actually a pretty unexpectedly tough relistenContinue reading “59: Jukebox the Ghost (B+→A-)”
58: Feist (B-→D+)
Feist in tier list good, fine, way mellow for my tastes and not super interesting/outstanding RELISTEN1: this relisten started poorly, one of the songs of hers I liked is a cover and I didn’t realize. I hate that, so so much, I hate it, ugh. The entire second half of that album is covers. ThankfullyContinue reading “58: Feist (B-→D+)”
57: The Strokes (A→A+)
The Strokes in tier list consistently good all around with some excellent songs as well RELISTEN1: just keep growing on me, really really good, good songs good albums good lyrics good vibes
56: The Wombats (A+→B-)
The Wombats in tier list about half the albums I absolutely love, half are great but not in love category yet, most recent album not sure about yet, overall solid really good EDIT: the more I listened to them the less sure I became, it got to the point every time I looked at myContinue reading “56: The Wombats (A+→B-)”
