Michael Wong (王光良) in tier list I like it fine. There chunks of a couple albums that I like all the way through, but for the most part it doesn’t hold my attention consistently at all. There are songs I like, and by and large I like him, I like the vibe and I likeContinue reading “217: Michael Wong (王光良) (C)”

216: Michael & Victor (光良品冠) (D-)
Michael & Victor (光良品冠) in tier list it’s alright. Seems like pretty standard soft rock type of thing. Nothing about it really caught my ear, it’s not really my jam. I don’t dislike it, but I’m comfortable saying I don’t like it. I think it’s mostly boring, D-
215: G.E.M. (D+→B)
G.E.M. in tier list it’s alright. There are parts that draw me in, but then it keeps going and repeating and it loses me. There will be places where in my head I think, “ah, now a bridge to shake up the chords or at least the melody!” and it will just keep looping theContinue reading “215: G.E.M. (D+→B)”

214: Eric Chou (周興哲) (D-)
Eric Chou (周興哲) in tier list very love ballady, which can be fine but I feel like in this case it mostly just meant slow and boring. These aren’t crazy good ballads, either, it’s just one mid song after another. If it wasn’t a ballad, it was something more poppy/R&B-y, but those songs weren’t veryContinue reading “214: Eric Chou (周興哲) (D-)”
213: Omnipotent Youth Society (万能青年旅店) (C+→A-)
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+→A-)”
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-→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-→A+)”
