Rooftops in tier list There’s just the one album, A Forest of Polarity. I listened to it four times; it’s pretty short and it’s the only album, so I figured I might as well. It sounds like math rock, I think, it fits the feel. A little bit, I don’t have much more to sayContinue reading “332: Rooftops (A-)”

331: Sarah and the Sundays (A-)
Sarah and the Sundays in tier list These guys had me constantly playing the “who does this sound like” game with myself. I kept feeling like there was someone they sounded so much like and I just could never place it. Their first album reminded me of Ivers, and also someone else I couldn’t getContinue reading “331: Sarah and the Sundays (A-)”
330: Roxette (C)
Roxette in tier list I think this is almost certainly too harsh a ranking. Throughout all the time I was listening to them, I had them pretty locked into my head as a B or a B-. But then, I was looking at my other artists and kinda going through those comparisons and trying toContinue reading “330: Roxette (C)”
329: The Elovaters (B-)
The Elovaters in tier list I was pleasantly surprised by this, I think. Reggae is one of the things I still have particular trouble listening to. It is kind of hypnotic, it starts and then all of the sudden it stops and I didn’t really hear any of it. I try to think back andContinue reading “329: The Elovaters (B-)”
328: Dom Fera (A)
Dom Fera in tier list I first listened through Dom Fera’s songs about a year and a half ago. He’s one of my best friend’s favorite artists, so I listened through all his singles and enjoyed them a fair bit. I wasn’t blown away, but I liked every song a lot, a few songs IContinue reading “328: Dom Fera (A)”
327: alt-J (A-)
alt-J in tier list I was pretty immediately hooked, or at least intrigued. The energy and the vibe is definitely up my alley, the soundscape of it all. Not every song feels like a winner off the cuff, but some of them definitely do, and every song definitely feels like it does good work inContinue reading “327: alt-J (A-)”
326: JVKE (A-)
JVKE in tier list It’s pretty good, pretty solid. Dunno that I have much more to say about it. Like, that’s a pretty lame review, but it’s kinda what I got. It is very pop music of its time, I think. It’s not breaking out of any molds, but it sounds good and I enjoyContinue reading “326: JVKE (A-)”
325: Faith Hill (D-)
Faith Hill in tier list Hm. I do think this is probably overly harsh. And yet, I don’t super care. The music is fine, it’s pleasant enough. There are songs I like. It’s just, it’s country, it’s Nashville. A pretty core part of my listening process is that I’m not just getting to know music,Continue reading “325: Faith Hill (D-)”
324: Everything But the Girl (C-)
Everything But the Girl in tier list My first impression was quite positive; I was very inclined to like it, to find things to like about it. There was a weirdness, a vibe that I didn’t quite get, but that I wanted to get. In the first couple albums, some songs really hit, and thatContinue reading “324: Everything But the Girl (C-)”
323: Queen (B+)
Queen in tier list From their first album in ’73 to The Game in ’80, I think they were enjoyable and pretty consistently getting better with each album. The first two albums I thought were fine, if not anything super special. There were songs I liked, but overall those albums didn’t really stand out toContinue reading “323: Queen (B+)”
