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*”
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*”

Balancing brevity with big ideas: Big Thief- Double Infinity *ALBUM REVIEW*
| ⭐⭐⭐✨ | The somewhat elusive folk-rockers have gone back to the drawing board, following their massive 2022 drop ‘Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You’. Not necessarily to re-invent their entire wheel or anything, but more so to dig deeper into our shared, yet individual experience of life.

The Journeyman: Quadeca- Vanisher, Horizon Scraper *ALBUM REVIEW*
| ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | The fifth studio album from Californian jack-of-all-trades Quadeca is his grandest artistic statement so far. Once upon a time, Benjamin Lasky was dabbling in a world entirely different from the one he inhabits currently.
