Getting my ears f**ked with Intercourse: Intercourse – How I Fell In Love With The Void *ALBUM REVIEW*

| ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | If relentless pigfuck and post-hardcore with a demented sense of humour is your thing (I know it’s mine), then look no further than Connecticut’s very own Intercourse. Boasting numerous EP’s and splits, as well as three LP’s now under their belt, these ferocious upstarts have made a serious name for themselves inContinueContinue reading “Getting my ears f**ked with Intercourse: Intercourse – How I Fell In Love With The Void *ALBUM REVIEW*”

The Swift-flation bubble is bursting: Taylor Swift – The Life of a Showgirl *ALBUM REVIEW*

| ⭐✨ | In a Swiftie’s mind, the worst offense you can commit against Taylor is any. I am going to throw caution to the wind a little bit here, but there is just no excuse anymore. Taylor Swift has made her bed, she can damn well sleep in it. Her lyrical capabilities demonstrate theContinueContinue reading “The Swift-flation bubble is bursting: Taylor Swift – The Life of a Showgirl *ALBUM REVIEW*”

Quirked-up indie rock for tortured freaks: Geese – Getting Killed *ALBUM REVIEW*

| ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | I think that about sums it up. Geese have very quickly become beacons of hope for rock music. Touted as “saviours” and “innovators”, that’s not an expectation that gets carried lightly. As much as I’m firmly a “time will tell” kind of guy in regards to predicted classic status of albums, IContinueContinue reading “Quirked-up indie rock for tortured freaks: Geese – Getting Killed *ALBUM REVIEW*”

English Remi Wolf: Lola Young – I’m Only F**king Myself *ALBUM REVIEW*

| ⭐⭐⭐✨ | Okay, that title is probably clickbait. It was the first thing I thought of when I first caught wind of this upcoming songstress on her breakout single ‘Messy’. Her sassy, cursive singing style paired with her sunny, quirky indie pop is an instant comparison in my mind. Not to reduce Lola toContinueContinue reading “English Remi Wolf: Lola Young – I’m Only F**king Myself *ALBUM REVIEW*”

An abundant lack of personality: Wednesday – Bleeds *ALBUM REVIEW*

| ⭐⭐ | For the last couple of years now, Wednesday have been at the forefront of a genuine indie rock resurgence. Dignifying their harsher shoegaze tendencies with plenty of folk and alt-country seasoning, it’s been clear for a minute now that this young band has a future etched out into the modern indie musicContinueContinue reading “An abundant lack of personality: Wednesday – Bleeds *ALBUM REVIEW*”

An unexpected team-up: Sumac & Moor Mother- The Film *ALBUM REVIEW*

| ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Moor Mother has always been a tremendously chilling poet. Her words crackle like a simmering blaze, at their angriest they spit like hot oil in a pan. Her choice of musical backing has been ever intriguing. She likes to work with whatever is going to make her sound most like an evilContinueContinue reading “An unexpected team-up: Sumac & Moor Mother- The Film *ALBUM REVIEW*”

A spiteful victory: Freddie Gibbs & The Alchemist- Alfredo 2 *ALBUM REVIEW*

| ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Alfredo was lightning in a bottle. Two artists whose respective talents converged into a perfect marriage. Behind the boards, we have The Alchemist. Known for his dreamy soul loops, and a knack for picking some seriously ear-grabbing samples. His hands have been responsible for some of the most beloved and influential hipContinueContinue reading “A spiteful victory: Freddie Gibbs & The Alchemist- Alfredo 2 *ALBUM REVIEW*”

Meg Remy wipes the slate yet again: U.S. Girls- Scratch It *ALBUM REVIEW*

| ⭐⭐⭐✨ | Meg Remy continues to be one of the pre-eminent poets in the modern class of alternative singer-songwriters, communicating longing and regret in equal measure. Remy’s music has always been somewhat anachronistic, given the mix of vintage and updated that crop up with every release. It’s clear that U.S. Girls is ultimately aContinueContinue reading “Meg Remy wipes the slate yet again: U.S. Girls- Scratch It *ALBUM REVIEW*”

Highly anticipated, highly impressive: Tropical Fuck Storm- Fairyland Codex *ALBUM REVIEW*

| ⭐⭐⭐⭐✨ | Tropical Fuck Storm’s latest release is a surprising exercise in restraint. At a point in their career where they have an already built-up reputation for musical abandon, there really is nowhere for a group as lateral in their movement as TFS to go. At least, that was my initial thought going intoContinueContinue reading “Highly anticipated, highly impressive: Tropical Fuck Storm- Fairyland Codex *ALBUM REVIEW*”

90’s nostalgia meets modern absurdism: The Bug Club- Very Human Features *ALBUM REVIEW*

| ⭐⭐⭐ | The Bug Club got their start as a blues band. That is where all of this begins. They cut their teeth on local circuits in Wales, built themselves a bit of a reputation, even getting so far as to support Status Quo at one point. By no means newbies when it comesContinueContinue reading “90’s nostalgia meets modern absurdism: The Bug Club- Very Human Features *ALBUM REVIEW*”
