No Name - Jack White: he cooked super hard on this one. Much better than Fear of the Dawn. 9/10.

i just had coffee and i

look at this strange creation. does it inspire fear in your heart?

Manafon - David Sylvian: this guy makes music, and it sounds like something. 8/10 for atmosphere

The Stygian Rose - Crypt Sermons: this is the first metal i've ever enjoyed. it's quite splendid, certainly. 8/10

II - Kiasmos: pleasant enough for my taste. if you like ambient or electronic, this is your album. also Ólafur Arnalds. 7.3/10

Home Constellation Study - Asher White: i think i might've found my favorite artist. everything about this album is just *so* good. solid 10/10, no notes.

Wall Of Eyes - The Smile: i like it better than their first album, especially because it's a bit more chill overall. my favorite track is probably Read The Room. 8.2/10
