Omnipotent Youth Society (万能青年旅店) in tier list I definitely like it a lot. That said, these songs are often long and instrumental, a combo I always struggle with. It’s mostly a mix of purely instrumental shorter songs and 8+ minute songs with lyrics. That’s tough. But I do like it, it’s enjoyable to listen to,Continue reading “213: Omnipotent Youth Society (万能青年旅店) (C+)”

212: Mayday (五月天) (B)
Mayday (五月天) in tier list I’m not super impressed. It’s fine. They definitely got better as they went, but they never really broke the threshold into being an act I like. They’re good, they’re fine, but they don’t quite compel me to like them. They start out at “alright” and move over to “pretty decent”,Continue reading “212: Mayday (五月天) (B)”
211: Accusefive (告五人) (A-)
Accusefive (告五人) in tier list I like it! The songs go a little long, but for the most part it feels like that’s how just how long the songs are— I don’t too much feel like there’s excessive stretching out of the song. There’s a good variety between songs, the production is nice, each songContinue reading “211: Accusefive (告五人) (A-)”
210: Mother Mother (B+)
Mother Mother in tier list I generally enjoy most of this, yeah. The first album is a little too weird, a little too extra for me on average. There’s some cool stuff in there but on the whole it kind loses me. Albums two and three, O My Heart and Eureka, are good. I likeContinue reading “210: Mother Mother (B+)”

209: c a n d i d ! (B)
c a n d i d ! in tier list it’s good. I like the later stuff more than the earlier stuff, which is good, means they’re getting better. It’s a little bit of a bummer that I don’t like the album as much as the singles because I want to like albums more inContinue reading “209: c a n d i d ! (B)”
208: Maisie Peters (A-)
Maisie Peters in tier list I tend to like her poppier stuff more, though that rule isn’t hard and fast. Everything’s pretty consistent, especially after she catches her stride in You Signed Up For This. Before that there’s a good bunch of stuff that’s alright but a little boring. Not everything, there’s plenty of songsContinue reading “208: Maisie Peters (A-)”
207: Red Two Six (C)
Red Two Six in tier list I’m bummed, I really wanted to like this a lot more. This was the conclusion to my investigation of Feed Me Jack, which first gave me Still Woozy (which I’ve loved for a long time), then gave me Bobbing (which I’ve loved for a much shorter time but maybeContinue reading “207: Red Two Six (C)”
206: M83 (D)
M83 in tier list I’m not enthused. For the most part, it’s long, slow, instrumental, and repetitive. In other words, super boring. The movie scores I think are the right play for him, that’s an appropriate setting for this kind of music, where part of the design is taking up time and not necessarily actuallyContinue reading “206: M83 (D)”
