Memory keeper. Mostly music and movies, plus some series and video games. Obscure darkness meets pop culture glow.
Two tracks (The Governor and Three Sides of Nazareth) on this album are completely off here that you don’t see coming, and still, crown jewel. Ambience, electronic music, rythm of dub (in No), and then these two post-punkish upbeat things I cannot really classify into a genre.
Getting to posting this one at last, too, but I needed to listen to it many times to properly digest what I hear. I consider the Malevolent Melody EP as the first Dead Pirates record, so counting from there this is the fourth output and the first proper long player album. And this has been quite a journey in terms of music. The tunes changed and evolved and matured in a serious way. I love where this whole project ended up, it is so… grown. Like a man not with a beard but the understanding that is not at all about the beard.
Finnish black metal but with many strange edges. Psychedelic rock, pumping kicks, many post-rock themes. It is quite an opus.
It is so strange that this is Volkova Sister’s first long player and it only dropped this year. Feels like they have been around for a long time and have put out much more, like several records. Probably I am biased since I’ve been listening to Dalma’s different bands for the most part of the past decade. And all of them have been a blast, this one’s no different.
This is good pop music.
Perfect press kit says it all: “Debut single of red hot punk for three shitbags from Melbourne.” Best new punk music by far.
This is a rock record, which definitely doesn’t sound like anything from 2016. It has all the festival jump around rock and roll shake it shake it vibe of all the past ten years and even some of the Beatles in its veins.
Another good ol’ punk rock record, nothing more and nothing less.
Eclectic electronic: retro futurist synthwave, ambient, downtempo, electro, jumpig back and forth. That said it is not a very coherent album, but tracks are fine.
This one has been sitting in my “play later” list for quite some time. I like it a lot, listened to it several times, but couldn’t put it in a specific drawer in my mind. Now I read a review of the album where it was said to be similar to Garbage and that is a fair point. Although this is how Garbage could sound in 2016, so that’s good, too. I so rarely listen to music nowadays, which could be labelled as classic and simple alternative rock. This is one of those.
