Bill Wurtz in tier list I first listened to all of Bill Wurtz’s stuff about a year and a half ago. If I’d counted him as an official listen then, he would’ve been my 256th artist, between 255: Sam Dew (B-) and the 256: Eagles (B). I’ve listened to him for even longer than that, though,Continue reading “349: Bill Wurtz (C)”

348: Jamie Miller (B-)
Jamie Miller in tier list I first listened through all of Jamie Miller’s stuff (little as there is) almost exactly three years ago, at the behest of a girl, but he didn’t have a full studio album released at the time so I didn’t count it as an official listen and I didn’t make anyContinue reading “348: Jamie Miller (B-)”
347: LAUNDRY DAY (B-)
LAUNDRY DAY in tier list I’ve tagged this in my internal records as “distinct_phases,” by which I mean that the band has, well, distinct phases. It’s consistent, but only within its distinct phases. I think it’s pretty good in its good phase, but I got tired of its bad phase. Y’know? It’s a little trickyContinue reading “347: LAUNDRY DAY (B-)”
346: Gus Dapperton (A-)
Gus Dapperton in tier list I first heard Gus Dapperton as an opener to 68: Still Woozy (S-) when I went to see him live a bit over a year ago. I remember getting into it and being surprised by how much I liked it right off the bat, which was only emphasized when the StillContinue reading “346: Gus Dapperton (A-)”
343: Flipturn (A+)
Flipturn in tier list I was fully hooked by my first day of listening, just from their first EP, Heavy Colors, and I only liked them more after that. I listened to all of their songs at least four times, I think, and many of them I listened to even more. As it turns out,Continue reading “343: Flipturn (A+)”
340: twenty one pilots (A-)
twenty one pilots in tier list This is a funny band for me, a little. I had some feelings about them before going into it, and those feelings didn’t really come from the music at all. In my head, twenty one pilots are kinda the quintessential middle school band. I have a core memory ofContinue reading “340: twenty one pilots (A-)”
339: Yam Haus (A-)
Yam Haus in tier list They were an opener when I saw 253: Sammy Rae & The Friends (A-) in concert… what, three and a half years ago, now? Dang. Anyway, I liked them enough to put them on my list, then I mostly forgot about them since they didn’t have enough songs released for meContinue reading “339: Yam Haus (A-)”
338: The Long Winters (B+)
The Long Winters in tier list I’m gonna put these guys at a B+ for now, but I could see them getting to an A-. That said, I could also see them sticking at a B+, or even going down to a B, so I guess we’ll see how it goes. I liked each albumContinue reading “338: The Long Winters (B+)”
337: The Offspring (B-)
The Offspring in tier list My overwhelming feeling is that I like this well enough, I guess? Like, that’s the feeling: “I like this well enough, I guess?” Question mark included as part of the feeling. It’s so much stuff that I mostly like, but that blends together to the point that I just loseContinue reading “337: The Offspring (B-)”
335: Ne-Yo (C-)
Ne-Yo in tier list I like it well enough, pretty good. I’ve got a lot more to say than that, but broadly I think that’s true. It’s pretty decent. There’s a handful of songs I like a lot, and most of the songs I think are at least alright. I think with most of Ne-Yo’sContinue reading “335: Ne-Yo (C-)”
