Bread in tier list I can see myself really liking them or not, I’m not sure yet. For now I think they’re somewhere on the edge of a B and an A, I’d say I like them a good bit. They’re pretty consistent, and I like their vibe

The Lumineers in tier list I could see this rising or not, I really can’t say. I like it fine enough, I like the vibe, there are songs I like, but there’s also a lot that just hasn’t catch my attention. Maybe it’ll grow on me, I wouldn’t be opposed- I do like the stuffContinue reading “122: The Lumineers (B+→D+)”

The Smashing Pumpkins in tier list I could see them growing on me or not, I’m really not sure yet, we’ll have to see. They’re not hugely interesting to me: pretty repetitive, albums are too long, I’m not super into rock for rock’s sake. But there were times I was listening where I was like,Continue reading “121: The Smashing Pumpkins (B-→D)”

TLC in tier list I’m not opposed to them growing on me, but I wouldn’t bet on it. They just weren’t very engaging for me. When they were more musical and did harmonies and stuff they sounded good, but most of the time they’d just have, like, record scratch sounds in the background while oneContinue reading “120: TLC (D-→C+)”

Tim McGraw in tier list I just can’t find it in me to care about it. It’s fine enough, it sounds nice, but it’s all the same, and it suffers from everything I always say country music suffers from- lack of originality, oversimplification, being defined by genre instead of letting the genre be defined byContinue reading “119: Tim McGraw (D)”

Coldplay in tier list I’m open to them growing on me, there’s really nothing I disliked about them at all, they just… were absolutely unengaging for me. Dunno why, couldn’t put my finger on it, but just consistently felt super bland and not interesting

Her’s in tier list consistent and good, i like the vibe. really solid, effective- second album is particularly solid

The Orion Experience in tier list some fun songs, but pretty basic, not a lot that really caught my ear- plus, it’s super themey but not in a way that means anything. I love it when bands have themes that motivate and inspire them, that make them cohesive and interesting. Here, it was just “let’sContinue reading “116: The Orion Experience (B-)”

Frankie Cosmos in tier list I like ‘em fine, but they never really sold me. I think there are two parts to this: one, the songs are kinda samey- the band has a pretty unique sound, but their songs aren’t really anything but that one unique song. hyperbole, but the point stands. two, I thinkContinue reading “115: Frankie Cosmos (B-→D-)”
