Nirvana in tier list I dunno how long Nirvana’s been on my list. Kinda forever? It’s just such a huge name, it’s iconic. I think I kinda flip flop between going out of my way to listen to those kinds of artists and band. They help me understand how other people contextualize music (and giveContinue reading “315: Nirvana (B-)”

314: LITE (B-)
LITE in tier list I admit, I’m kinda bummed by this. I was looking forward to it, and the first couple albums had me excited. It’s instrumental, it came into my attention as part of my math rock investigations. I think their first two albums, and also maybe their fourth, are the ones that feelContinue reading “314: LITE (B-)”
313: Justin Bieber (B+)
Justin Bieber in tier list This was a bit of an interesting listen for me because Justin Bieber is hugely famous, a major cultural touchstone, and yet I really only have such an incredibly superficial awareness of his presence. I had a preexisting conception of him, I felt like I knew his vibe, and atContinue reading “313: Justin Bieber (B+)”
312: Liam Gallagher (B)
Liam Gallagher in tier list His first two albums, As You Were and Why Me? Why Not., I liked quite a bit. His second two, C’mon You Know and the one he did with John Squire, I didn’t really care about at all. I don’t think I could tell you what made the difference. That’sContinue reading “312: Liam Gallagher (B)”
311: Beady Eye (D)
Beady Eye in tier list This is, unless I’m totally wrong, Oasis after Noel left. Dunno why I put it off for so long—I did Oasis and Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds pretty close to back to back, and just left Liam in the lurch, I guess. My b. I like it fine enough. IContinue reading “311: Beady Eye (D)”
310: wave to earth (B-)
wave to earth in tier list Ack! So late on this! End of the semester is a lame excuse but so it goes. I listened to all the EPs and the one LP so many times. At least four times each. I liked them all decently well, they were a pleasant time, but that’s notContinue reading “310: wave to earth (B-)”
309: Adele (A-)
Adele in tier list I dunno if any of y’all knew this but I think this singer Adele might actually be kinda good. I know she’s probably a little too underground for most people, she kinda slaps. Right now, I think I’ve only got enough of a feel for her to warrant an A-, butContinue reading “309: Adele (A-)”
308: Theo Katzman (A)
Theo Katzman in tier list I admit, perhaps a little bit shamefully, that I didn’t have the highest expectations going into this. Thankfully, I was extremely pleasantly surprised. I thought it would be… I don’t know, “lame” is definitely too harsh, but at the same time I kinda thought it would be lame. I haveContinue reading “308: Theo Katzman (A)”
307: Robyn (C)
Robyn in tier list I feel Robyn goes through a couple phases, has some distinct sounds. Some of them I like a fair bit; some of them I do not care for. Her first album feels too smoothed over to me, if that makes sense. My Truth is way more pop leaning, a little bitContinue reading “307: Robyn (C)”
