i really liked the first two tracks, but after that i got a bit bored. there were some really somber moments throughout the whole album though, and i think the autotune was used well.

feels grungy and kind of miserable. probably the synthwave, but reminds me of retrofuturism.

very calming, has a summer feel. i was drawn in by the cover art. the first few tracks only play in left ear which pmo a bit.

i really liked what they did in the first track, the descending choords (idk music terms) was really cool, i totally felt like i was slipping away or something. the screaming was pretty impressive but after awhile the tracks started to sound the same. cover art is

i haven't ever gone out of my way to listen to classical before, so i was surprised how different this was from the famous classical music like debussy. i really liked the combination of ambient noise and instruments. there's a bit of panning which i also really liked. there's one song thats mostly dialogue that got a bit boring. on the whole i liked it though.

a little bit same-y, but consistently good- i guess that's what you get for filtering for dnb and rock and picking the first album without a furry or anime girl that interested me (trying to only pick stuff i wouldn't normally listen to.) had a really good music-video-daydream while listening to this. tranquil. something christian going on here and i can't tell if it's for or against.

wanted something chill and this fulfilled that perfectly. never really been super into jazz but i liked this!! the album cover really drew me in for some reason. i think it's the deep red.

i wanted something to think about and i haven't listened to bedroom pop in a looong time. unfortunately didn't like this one that much, but i have been thoroughly spoiled by tvgirl so my expectations are a little high. the lyrics were a bit vapid and repetitive, i guess. the tunes themselves were good.

very experimental, not really my thing. sounds like if you told someone to make something in beepbox in 30 minutes. i think it starts off strong and then kind of falls apart, but i do like #26, it's a little grungy.

very experimental. the first track is my favourite, it's super gentle and nice. i don't really like the second two, just not my genre. the second track sounds kind of country?

the first track alternates between loud and gentle in a suprisingly subtle way, it's nice in a lulling sort of way. the second part is the same but a bit more creepy at the beginning.

funky. i liked it on the whole, it's kind of unique, but the repeated sampling in the last track kind of snapped me out of it. sounds both 90s and 2010s at the same time? idk what im talking about. very confusing to pin down.

i liked the latter half a lot more than the first? weird, because listening to bits of select tracks, it all sounds pretty similar. i think i just got more invested as time went on. the lyrics are creative imo, often mixing sayings in a clever way. sounds kinda retro but i only found this band from one of my rare socmed doomscrolls (guilty pleasure. shut up!!) so it's kinda impressive. also the singer's voice is very smooth.

i'd been trying out new genres but i give up, because i'm craving something moody. shoegaze and shoegaze-adjacent stuff is probably my third fav genre? i think also i really wanted to find an album i loved through this page and for that not to have happened 14 albums in is a bummer. anyway i loved this. very somber and slow enough to dwell on things but not too slow that you get bored.

i've been meaning to listen to kate bush for a while... i like the first half, it sounds pretty. her voice has a pretty impressive range, although some of the background vocals made me laugh a little because the syllables and pitch seem like random choices. i don't really like the second half, it got kind of boring in a way that reminds me of reading a poem that just turns into the writer's rambles about their day. i think the format was lost a little? maybe that was on purpose.

i've been looking for non-jp and non-en vocaloid recently, combined with shoegaze, this felt like finding a goldmine. overall it's really well done, i had a good time listening to it. perfectly strikes the balance between somber and hopeful. i think using luka's voice was also a great choice for a genre with such a thoughful feel to it. the cover art is a little goofy though.

i like emo stuff, but i dont think im into pure rock, so it's not for me cuz it leans too far into that territory. the cover art is cool as fuck.

a little bit too self indulgent, but i also kinda respect it. like, i think it takes itself very seriously, so at first i thought worse of it for that. but then that can also be an admirable trait. i guess it depends on how self aware you are? ... anyway i'm indifferent about the sound itself.

i like the variety in moods across the tracks, and the track titles are fun. i'm getting a bit sick of whiny and speech-like male vocals, so maybe midwest emo isn't my thing... i especially liked "see you never".

i love the way this album subverts shoegaze as a genre, but still keeps its core. its melancholy, and i love it. the 8-bit vibe is interesting and probably hard to pull off with this tone so i think it's really talented!! i like this album a lot.

i already like lexycat so i'm biased. but really cute and lively. the flower motif for all the track names was really cute too. i still think lexycat's later work is much better though. oh, and this album has a really videogame-y feel to it, somehow? maybe there are lots of samples i'm unconsciously picking up because it kinda reminds me of deltarune.

leaning too far into rock for my tastes but i liked it enough to listen all the way through. the tracks are really expressive, the whole album is, including the cover. you can really tell what the artist was feeling when it was made. the album makes you feel like you're in danger.

sad. ambient. i liked the breaks in track 4. if i was having a really bad day i think i'd be way more into this album, but in my current bleh mood it's not hitting the same. i can still appreciate it though.

this has a weird feel i can't put my finger on. some tracks sound really eccentric, they kind of remind me of lemon demon or jack stauber. other tracks feel really moody and solemn. it's kind of impressive how well they flow, considering the drastic changes in tone. i like the mix between synthesized and recorded music, if that is what they did. it's cool but not for me. i need to stop accidently picking rock albums when i know i'm not really into rock lmao.
