Nonagon Infinity

King Gizzard, in my opinion, are on a good way of saving rock music. The genre is bound to a basic set of 4 instruments and yet this band manages to reinvent themselves unbelievably from record to record. They just jam and their music is so much fun, whether it is boogie rock or thrash metal, psychedelic folk or experiments in microtonal tuning. One should show every "back in the days"-oldhead this album: It captures the energy of King Gizzard best by displaying their unbelievable skill and theirfun . Apart from the brilliant idea of an infinte album, which you could loop forever, as each track flows seemlessly into the next one, this is just banger after banger.

★ (Blackstar)

I purchased this album on it's release date, Bowie's 69th birthday. I really digged the tracks he had released in advance and was pumped for this record. I played it throughout the weekend and it helped me through a bad hangover. When the news broke in that Bowie had passed on the Monday after, the whole concept of this album instantly made sense. The sinister lyrics, the cryptic videos, the elegiac music. It was a genius move to pull out such a strong swan song as his final record. While he has always had a jazzy vibe throughout his career, Bowie perfected his jazzyness on ★, with the sax being the lead instrument instead of the guitar. The last two tracks are more classic Bowieesque tracks and manage to let David sparkle one last time. Thank you very much for this.

Atrocity Exhibition

Danny Brown has one of these voices that you really have to get used to. At first, I didn't really know what to think about it when hearing his contributions to RTJ's and Avalanches' latest albums. But I learned to appreciate this unique - annoying, if you'd like to call it that way - rapping technique. Lyrically, this 'funny' voice discovers a real atrocity exhibition of alcoholism, drug abuse and suicidal tendencies. Regarding beats, Danny shows a hardcore, excessive style, which in a weird way has me nodding my head to it.

Thirteen sketches of groove-orientated, krautrock-beat-driven music, which panders with the modern psychedelia of Tame Impala, but has a more electronic, dancy mood. Furthermore, the sound expresses a casual, liberal attitude, that is popular in the Swiss music scene.

"Awaken, My Love!"

This record is thriving black pride. Before the release of this record, I associated Donald Glover with his lively character Troy in Community. My respect for him grew so much when I listened to the opening track Me And Your Mama. The mellow intro collapses into an acid psychedlic soul/funk explosion with Gambino's vocal style ranging from Prince to James Brown. Senseful, sexy, stimulative, synthesized - no more "childish" hip hop, this is of mature nature. May the dank memes never taint the R&B-goodness of Redbone.

I've once read: "Thom Yorke could take a shit in the studio and record it and fand and music critics would still love it." It's kind of true. Not to say that AMSP is shit in any way, I really enjoy the introverted, eerie orchestral sound. But I also remember the sheer hype for this release, the otherworldly ratings on this site. Radiohead are way past their peak - but I no other band that could still put out such good records way past their peak!

Rating metrics: Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart is rated in the top 2% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 90.3/100, a mean average of 92.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 93.1/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.7.
