65/100
Some of the songs are pleasant yet non-investing (like the fine Any Light, the passable Gift, the lesser passable To Turn), and others (like Uncanny Valley's summery doses, Ask Direction's colorful wizardry, interlude acoustics and hypnagogic synths on The Light In You, the small country side breezes of No Mast, Blue with a morning-like asepticness, the alt-country ditty On My Way To You, and especially the immaculate and tender Medicine) do the job.
Also this is 29 minutes, but it feels like 42 minutes. But this is one of those rarities where it's a positive. If you were a fan of the (overhyped) Clairo album this year, this Loving album (with those quiet vocals) will surprise you.

What you would need in strong feminism music, you'll here in Pink Balloons; fearless sexuality but not gutless and lackluster, contagious energy in both the vocals and guitars and bass and drums, rebellious against the norms that have been treating us way too wrong, and a fresh sound of real garage punk. The more progressive you are in your politics, the more you'll find Holzman's attitude almost seductive. On top, it's not too serious. The less the better, like my favorite song musically is the interlude Make Me Young, it's so diy.
If only the songwriting could match the ambition on every track.

I like how she incorporates subtle doses of field recordings and glitchy noses in her indie folk, without the listener even noticing it at times. The whole record is joyful, even the mid parts. Not much else to say. The songs sound same-y, but that makes it easy to let it coze over you like the clouds. Give it a listen.

This is type of singer-songwriter album where is technically and sonically isn't anything wrong, everything is right (except when jangly guitar can be to much on Wishing Well). On the other hand, the lack of originality and stone cold hard melodies keeps it from an absolute masterpiece or something outstanding. Check it out nevertheless. This Cohen guy knows how to incorporate soft rock and lounge jazz elements into his lightheartedly psychedelic singer-songwriter tunes, unlike another certain one this year who gets all the hype for doing the same but worse. Because on Paint A Room, each instrument knows when and where to jump in and what to play, and Cohen knows how to use a bleak delivery to produce pacific result; the title track being a gem of that. An easy LP to enjoy, for the whole family.

These songs are dancing through their own daydreams. They can be rhythmic, or slowdancing, but there's always something that makes Lucy's vibe connect with an innocent part of the sonic psyche. Obviously I am reaching here, that's just my own interpretation when I listened to this record. It's at least a reason to know that the music is pleasant, though not original.

Very run-of-the-mill folk album from a somewhat gentle soul. It can be a good little listen when you don't want to be sold something. Foxglove is a win with a compelling rhythm that matches the riff, that dynamic is repeated in Ayan's Song. The title track has a good balance between guitar, voice and strings. I have heard the exact fingerpicking on Mouth of A Flower, but I don't care the song's oh so wonderful. The best riff comes on Redwoods, though the rest is a bit too typical, and the best fingerpicking is on the semi-jazzy Sorry Fahey.

Three months after Hisses Without Kisses, that contains the greatest piece of noise music I have ever heard (I), perhaps, Borderline Issues releases a new collection of noisy cuts with Undelights. The first track, The End Begins In Here is a 10-minute attempt at psychology, and although it is well-composed, it isn't as hitting as it sets itself out to be. Still, I enjoyed it. From the get-go, Hurtful Encounters is clearly more effective. Featuring static cutlery (?), cryptic snorting and high frequency in the background, it descends with vocals that are so surreal, so surreal. These vocals are replaced with more scratching noises, the sensory of mine is a toss between waking up in a circle of hell, or being in the middle of a psychical operation. By all means, this is excellent, one of BI's best compos. The first three and a half minutes of Overwhelming Wheel is overproduced. I started to vibe to a rhythm lying underneath until it was too difficult, making this track hard for me to "get". It's super deficient until we get to around the 3:28 mark, where it breaks into a pipe of foul noise with much more sonic companionship. Although it still isn't enough to reach the heights of Hurtful Encounters, it still was a lot more impactful than the first part of the song. Vampirish Lusts is another more-than-one-act tune, the first one being two minutes that I honestly have a hard time not zoning out to; the second one has a cool effect on the vocals and distorted synth. I loved that part so clearly, it elevated the whole song, also with the way the tension builds up and the dramatic melody; the third and last minute of the cut being more heavy noise, good pleasant surprise. Borderline Issues surely knows how to make the harshness sound purposeful. The last of the bunch, Bad Dreams is the longest track, at 12 minutes, that reminds me of the Nightmarish Paths cuts. Being less noisy than the previous four, it feels like I'm in the scariest video game catacombs or library. If Borderline Issues wanted to try making soundtracks, I'm more than willing to listen to that.
Even though no song quite reaches the depths or highs of the first track on Hisses Without Kisses, Undelights is a more consistent effort. If you are a harsh noise fan, there is no reason in the world not to check out this discography.

It is too long, side B being the all-killer no filler part of the album. There is nothing new in the Microphones world, but in the superb moments, which there are lot of, it doesn't matter. The imperfection-nature is still there and in thrive, Phil Elverum still sounds like himself. I know I am not coming back to this album often, but I also know that when I do I will enjoy it, skipping of course the last leg of dread.

Very enjoyable pieces, although it isn't every cut that features a genuine chill form of melodiousness, and the record can get a bit long. But easy to get into. The first disc is mostly the calm, the second disc is the storm with many more symphonic elements. Recommended listen for every chamber fan.

After a delay this year, another First of October has hit the streets. Round 6 it is, as the sixth album in a day by our good buddies Rob Scallon and Andrew Huang. No matter what, I am just pleased to see that Scallon is in a better place now than he was last year. Despite producing a stellar record in Across The Road, when he opened up about his bipolar, I felt for him. He seems so cool, and so does Andrew. Anyways, the most fascinating thing about the latest installment of our one-day-band, is that they are using chiptune and bit music instruments this time around. Since I really have gotten wholeheartedly into videogame music this year, the timing couldn't be more on.
Unfortunately, the album isn't as great as its predecessor. Many of the songs feel filler-ish in spirit, and besides the Infinite Lives song as well as the other acoustic homerunner It's Time To Move On, it's not something special. Still enjoyable, but probably my least favorite album of theirs alongside Chaos.
