Day 100: Roxy Music (self-titled)
Always in the category of music my mum liked that I couldn't get into. I know I've listened to bits of theirs before but couldn't remember what, returning with this album I see why. Opinion unchanged, I don't really get the appeal. Not bad just fairly bland. 2 stars

112) Stray Children
This may be the most charming game I've ever played, despite also being pretty bleak. A striking visual style, great soundtrack, fun/varied combat and legitimately funny. I adored it the whole way through. The difficulty was inconsistent and at times frustrating, but that's minor

Day 99: Exit Planet Dust by The Chemical Brothers
Now I might be a little biased, being from Manchester and growing up as a fan of the 90's rave music we got up North. I was also really into the Wipeout games with this style of music, including stuff from this album. Almost all bangers. 5 stars.

Day 98: Stankonia by OutKast
I was expecting more from this, but it's only okay. A few decent songs, had obviously heard Ms. Jackson as well as B.O.B, but the rest was mostly forgettable or kind of bad. Another album filled with mostly skits between every song, but long and unfunny. 2 stars.

The choice to make Psylocke become suddenly Asian is still very iffy... but the redesign is just instantly so much better than her weird steel corset and cloak outfit from before.

Day 97: Moon Safari by Air
It's nice when this gives me an album I already have a strong opinion on. Always thought that the first half of this album was amazing, All I Need is one of my favourite songs, but the latter half is disappointing. It feels like a different album with bad singing. 4 stars.

They're bringing the freak picks out on this cover that is very not representative of what happens in this issue. Love them giving Moira a big gun again though.
