A jack of all trades, but master of none. Still trying to find my purpose, while being positive about it. I also review stuff now and then.
The ambient parts work quite well, but the noise and drone parts are a pain to the ears. And when it's not trying to be as unlistenable as possible it's just boring. There is nothing here to enjoy, for me at least.

A pretty solid debut from the boys. It's filled with flamboyant love songs that come from the heart. And it doesn't feel fake at all, well in most cases. Can feel a bit samey though, but it's not a long record so it's not exhausting. They didn't have to go that hard on the first song. That was fire.

Thom Yorke and Mark Pritchard's collab album Tall Tales was a bit of a let down. I mean it's not as bad as people make it out to be. Sure the last 4 songs were a complete bore, but I liked the vibe it was going for. It fails to be impactful and because of that it's just a niche beep boop album.

Hear me out! This band is amazing! GYÁVA is a hungarian group that creates noise rock and no wave music. So if you like these genres, it will be your cup of tea. While not perfect, it's such a fresh concept that I can't dislike it. The guitar tones and occasional grooviness is what makes it special

One of the best hungarian progressive rock bands has done it again. They are just being true to themselves here. In most cases I would give these records a 7, they always deliver, but the highs in this album are so high that I can't give it a lower score. Éjjeli nyugató + Űrtúrista is a killer combo

This was one of the most unhinged and insane albums I've ever heard and I'm loving it. The production is immaculate and it is just never boring. A really fun listening experience if you don't take it too seriously,but still has quite a few awesome songs. It's even rawer and grittier then their debut

Pogány Induló's debut into the hungarian rap world made a huge impact in the hearts many. He posesses something that a lot of rappers lack nowdays. Honesty and authenticity. His voice is something really special and fitting for a man who has gone through a lot. But the beats are not very refined.

Very nice sounding album and hits the vibe it's going for. Reminisces a lot on youth and growing up. Aged incredibly well for me at least. "Kids" was an absolute blast from the past and "Electric Feel" had an awesome groove. This album offers a little piece on fading summer for the ones wishing.

A proper follow-up to their debut, R.E.M. refines their sound to such extent that though it is more consistent their previous album, it's less darring too. Rockville was my favourite song for that reason, because it reminded me of the debut's beautiful sound. Still a good record with no skips.

Gonna get crucified for this. This genre is just not for me. Didn't enjoy anything this album was going for though I appreciate the novelty it brought to the table. Bad mixing, unbearably noisy sound, vocals too quiet for their own good. "But that's the point" some would tell me. Maybe it will click

One hit and you are in another part of the universe. That's what this album promises and it delivers. The pioneer album of stoner metal, but let's just say, it's more than that. It's trippier than Paranoid and goes for vibes a bit more.Has an overall dirtier and rougher sound so it's less accessable

A diamond in the rough this debut is. Has all the components to make it a more memorable Motörhead album, but it's such a hard listen due to the production. Descent enough for motor shows and biker bars, but there are just better albums of this genre. Listen to Ace of Spades instead.

SOAD never disappoints, this album stole my hearth. The cover is really clever and very bold for a band like them. The album criticises capitalism and comsumerism, but it can also be quite philosophical at times. Headbangers all around and the songs transition amazingly.

After hearing the first two The Doors albums, this just didn't really live up to them. It's good, but not as adventourus and boundary pushing. Just nice sounding tunes about love and nostalgia for the early 60s. Morrison's passionate vocals are the only thing inviting me to keep coming back.

Heavier in their sound and more brutal in their lyrics Deftones is just doing what it does best here. What this album lacks is a cohesive direction. The songs are good on their own, but it's all over the place. Some songs even kill the vibe it set up initially and ventures off into another sound.

A wonderful debut from R.E.M., Murmur immediatly put me in a trance. The guitars I can listen to forever and ever and has kind of a greekish sound to it. And it's always something else with this album, it's beyond innovative. I cannot wait to listen to their other stuff.

A genre defining classic and a very interesting debut from Korn. It's a catalogue of nu metal experimentation. Some are fun and quirky, but some are super dark and serious. You can't exactly pin down where it lands on these two fronts. Whatever it is, it really feels like the band had so much fun.

"Az ízéből az ízé" by "kisbetűs ünnepnapok" is a charming album. Very soft in their lyrics, which can be a little boyishly immature for my taste, but conscidering that they are very young musicians it's expected. What really intrigues me is the sound of it all. It's a great start. Hope to hear more.

I've got to hand it to Jean Michel Jarre, he is a genius and a pioneer. I can't imagine the impact of this album when it came out in 1976. It took electronic music to a whole new galaxy. Great as it is, it aged a little bit. But it's still a wonderful journey, which will likely grow on me more.

Was really hyped for "Forever Howlong". Not because was I the biggest fan of BC,NR or anything, but some of the songs that were released beforehand were really good, "Bestie" and "Happy Birthday" especially. I love the bouncy baroqueness of it and the new vocalists make it ever more special.

An enjoyable little ambient album that tries to be Aphex Twin and Björk a little too hard. Can't say they didn't set an atmosphere at the begining, but as the songs went on, it got less and less interesting. But it was a good background noise for playing games.
April 1, 2025 at 8:01 PM
Here's an album that just does whatever it wants to. Rave, house, hip-hop anything. I appreciate the experimentation on some of the songs but most of them are just boring loops or a pain to the ears. So "All The Hits" by Myriad Myriads requires a very specific taste in music, which I don't possess.

An absolutely breathtaking album. A one of a kind experience and truly a marvel of human creativity. Such a grandiose sound paired with eye-opening lyrics. It could even make a grown man cry with happiness. Makes me proud to be human. I'm ready to feel Illinois any day of the week.
April 1, 2025 at 5:55 PM
Bold statement on the cover, but does it deliver? Well it is music, but not the very good kind. I can feel the experientation in some of the tracks, but it just fails in so many ways and the other songs are boring. There are 30 songs and it was a chore to get through them. I'm just glad it's over.
March 30, 2025 at 8:54 PM
Sonically this album is right up my alley. Even enjoyed it a little bit more than the debut. Feels more thought out. Some of the messages and lyrics aged quite badly, I agree, but I still think they kinda get the right point across and makes you think about certain subjects in a different light.
