Sometimes I like to write
Some of the stuff I write will go here:
A 2020 Breakdown in 25 Albums
Worthless dreamingIn a dying worldThat I already loveSo I can’t give it up yet. Intro Written February 12th, 2021. This is my third revision of this opening paragraph. On previous attempts I tried to make it sound professional, to acknowledge and somewhat handwave the events of 2020, and make a fun and inoffensive list of…
PlayStation 5 CONSOLE REVIEW
It’s been about seven years since the Playstation 4’s launch in 2013, a console that, despite in retrospect not being that massive of a leap from the previous generation, managed to host some of the best and most technically impressive games ever made. Now in 2020 Sony is back with another box, the Playstation 5…
Anna von Hausswolff – All Thoughts Fly ALBUM REVIEW
When I first heard that All Thoughts Fly, the latest record by composer and singer Anna von Hausswolff would be entirely instrumental, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed. Part of what had made her so interesting in the past was the contrast and collusion between the lush instrumentals she crafted and her…
Denzel Curry & Kenny Beats – UNLOCKED ALBUM REVIEW
This is part of a semi-daily series of reviews as a project throughout the month of November. For the third year in a row, Southern Hip Hop powerhouse Denzel Curry has dropped a record, this time teaming up with renowned rap producer Kenny Beats, known for his beats on tracks by JPEGMAFIA and Zack Fox.…
Necrot – Mortal ALBUM REVIEW
This is part of a semi-daily series of reviews as a project throughout the month of November. Here’s the thing about Old School Death Metal (OSDM,) the genre kind of peaked close to when it began with bands like Death, Morbid Angel, and Autopsy. It would take a lot for a new record in the…
Young Jesus – Welcome to Conceptual Beach ALBUM REVIEW
This is the first in a series of semi-daily reviews as a project throughout the month of November. Young Jesus is a seven-piece art rock group from Los Angeles, California whose sound takes influence from plenty of disparate groups and genres, from midwest emo and 90s alternative to post-punk and especially -rock. They’ve released five…
My Top 25 AAA Games of the 2010s
Maybe it’s just because this is the only full decade I’ve been around for, but I can’t help feeling that the past ten years have been one of the most confusing times for big-budget games since the medium’s inception. Some absolutely revolutionary games have been released, ones that have pushed the medium forward in massive…
My Top 25 Favorite Indie Games of the 2010s
Alright. I know I’m late, you know I’m late, let’s just pretend it never happened and move on. In many ways, the past decade has simultaneously been one of the better and worse time periods for video games. For better or worse games are taken seriously now, and now get all the same benefits and…
DOOM Eternal Game Review – “..Until it is Done”
It seems like an eternity since ID Software shocked the world by making a good Doom reboot in 2016, proving that the tried-and-true genre of the FPS, a genre they helped to create in the first place, could be more than the stagnating trope it was slowly becoming. I didn’t get around to the game…
My 50 Favorite Albums of the 2010s
So now that we’ve seen how bad of a start the 2020s are getting off to, I guess we can reminisce about how good(?) the 2010s were, huh? Despite not surpassing the incredible decade for music that was the 00s, the 2010s contained some fantastic music, some of the best of all time, in fact.…
My 10 Favorite Albums of 2019
2019 has been the most important year of my entire life, from a musical standpoint. At the beginning of the year I challenged myself to listen to 500 unique albums throughout the year and, while I probably failed, and absolutely lost count, the true purpose of my challenge was fulfilled. I finished 2019 with a…
