Dispatch in tier list I think I can get behind this. At least so far, it definitely does feel pretty jam-band-y, which… on the one hand, I think that means songs run longer than they need to. On the other hand, I think Dave Matthews Band has taught me to dig the jam-band-y vibe. Well,Continue reading “270: Dispatch (A)”

269: The Raconteurs (A)
The Raconteurs in tier list I think this is actually one of the Jack White projects I like most. It’s super accessible, super easy to enjoy consistently from song to song. It’s more straight rock than the experimental type of stuff that happens in Jack White’s solo stuff, more so than The Dead Weather, butContinue reading “269: The Raconteurs (A)”
268: Doechii (C-)
Doechii in tier list she had one EP that I thought was pretty legit. If everything were like that, I think I would’ve liked her a lot. As it stands, she had a lot of stuff that was just… I don’t want to say that songs about sex, or even songs that feel sexual, areContinue reading “268: Doechii (C-)”
267: Saint Motel (A-)
Saint Motel in tier list solid, I like it. Not much more to say than that. I like the first album and the fourth albums the most, the middle two were a little more eh, but all around I think they’re good and enjoyable, A- makes good sense Saint Motel complete, now listening to: Doechii
266: Atarashii Gakko! (B-)
Atarashii Gakko! in tier list I was not terribly impressed. I liked it well enough, I suppose. There were a good number of songs I enjoyed, and there wasn’t anything about it that I disliked, but it wasn’t super my jam. I dunno. I don’t have all that much more to say about it, whichContinue reading “266: Atarashii Gakko! (B-)”
265: Modest Mouse (A-)
Modest Mouse in tier list pretty weak start, ngl. The first five albums, plus the early eps, are just not super fun to listen to. There are occasionally parts that sound like they could be interesting and cool, and there are occasionally parts that do sound good, but they’re kinda few and far between. Mostly,Continue reading “265: Modest Mouse (A-)”
264: Michigander (A-)
Michigander in tier list I listened through all his stuff in an evening once about two years ago. I liked it all well enough, but nothing about it really stuck out to me. I’ve listened to all of that again, now, with more attention and with more experience. After all, I’ve been listening to himContinue reading “264: Michigander (A-)”
263: Stevie Wonder (B-)
Stevie Wonder in tier list Before anything else, I’m gonna go over my process a little bit– how I’ve been considering revisiting it, and how I tested out some adjustments in this listen. The problem I’m trying to solve is that there are artists, older ones in particular, who have enormous catalogues. Stevie Wonder, forContinue reading “263: Stevie Wonder (B-)”
262: Olive Klug (B)
Olive Klug in tier list I like it, it’s good. She keeps it pretty simple, but it does what it does well and I respect it. Solid B Olive Klug complete, now listening to: Stevie Wonder
