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+)”

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

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-)”

Dua Lipa in tier list songs consistently on the wrong edge of good enough with a few that are solid RELISTEN1: all around pretty decent. Second album is definitely better than the first, both alright but neither are anything really special. It’s fun. The songs that are popular are popular for good reason, they’re catchyContinue reading “55: Dua Lipa (B+→B)”

American Authors in tier list some good songs, pretty consistent, not amazing

Smallpools in tier list solid across the board, no favorite songs but all pretty good

COIN in tier list good, consistent, first two albums are really good and then two meh and then most recent steps it up RELISTEN1: I did a little relisten and I liked it more than I remembered. I think it’s fair to bump it up from top A- to bottom A RELISTEN2: first album IContinue reading “52: COIN (A-→A)”

The Japanese House in tier list solid but really mellow, not sure when I want to listen to it, but consistent and good

Sigrid in tier list a little bit too repetitive (particularly rhythmically) sometimes, but good

Steel Train in tier list really actually very good, solid three albums RELISTEN1: after a relisten, I think I’m pretty happy with the high A- ranking. Good albums, good songs, but also enough minor things I’m iffy on for me to not feel bad about keeping it from A rank (no major change)
