101-200 Albums of 2021
by 
Mercury 
Some of these albums are very good and it was hard taking them off top 100 of year. I really love this year in music so far. Also, a good few of these will be revisited and commented upon later down the line and, who knows, may rise high in and into the top 100.
I will now start another chart which is 2021 spill overs or 1-and-Dones (what this chart was for months). I had to make a spreadsheet like a dork because I know that soon this will get freaking way way to confusing to keep in order across 3 charts. Hope someday we have longer chart sizes.

(Earthy and dreamy indie pop that, for me, evokes Mazzy Star while putting their own spin on it - and not achieving the same heights either. Will be returning at some point and I think this may be a grower.)
This is a nice dreamy indie pop album. There is a space to the sounds, like the duo is trying to conjure up in your mind a lot of open road and wide open spaces. They do this with lots of dreamy reverb and so forth and with lots and lots of sort of far off, floating keyboard notes and guitars (a good amount of pedal steel and slide) that sort of swoop down and then in and then out and up in the mix. Its quite nice really. It gives the songs a grounded, somewhat folky vibe which mixes nicely with the dream pop.
The vocals and the lyrics are solid. Not breathtaking or incredible to my ears, but very keen and emotional and I likes em. They don't seperate this album from other earthy dream pop sounding groups (not that I've heard a whole hell of a lot, but there are obvious 90s acts that come to mind and then stay there while listening to the vocals and production of this album.)
For sure, this sounded like a somewhat updated, but mostly the same formula, Mazzy Star. If you like Mazzy Star's brilliant blend of dream pop and folky Americana, then you'll probably at the very least enjoy this. While, no, there is no Hope Sandoval here to push these songs to another level of shimmering gorgeous breath-taking excellence, Tessa Murray holds her own and makes these songs shine nicely.

Impressive!...in both quality (of the insightful and descriptive notes and comments) and quantity (I'm only up to 69 2021 albums for the year as of now and I think I listen to a lot...wrongly I guess, hah!)
