* // Honorable Mention. For those who like its over-riding aesthetic. // 76-75%

B- // Has a fair few good tracks but is either too long, too repetitive, or just plain too much of something at times. // 75-71%

C+ // A hackwork kind of record. Pick and choose your favorites. // 70-66%

C // Professional record with seemingly no substance OR a decent try at something different. Often corny. // 65-60%

✂️ // 1 or 2 good songs could be cut out and added to a greatest hits album. // 49-45%

? // A grade of D, E or F lands a "dud". It fails in every way. // 44-0%
