This band from Portland is spiky without being too punky, dark without being too goth, and best of all, not emo enough to make me turn it off. (All this is contrary to what the cover art would have you believe, but ehh, whatever.) I'm not hugely impressed with the scratchy-strat guitar sound, but the vocals are right up there, and at least for the time being you can get it for free at Bandcamp. Hopefully someone will remind me to move it into my Top 100, because it should probably be there instead of here. Also, I'm hoping someone will remind me to vacuum my living room. Somebody has to do it.

Very catchy stuff from a pop-punk band from Durham, UK. There's maybe too much melody and lead guitar to call it "punk," and the singer (Laura Kovic, the gal with the glasses on the album cover) doesn't sound angry enough, and most of the time not angry at all, but there's still plenty of energy here. Some might call this "twee" instead, and it does have some of that Sarah Records C86 vibe going for it, but I'm only going to mention that in a sort of Ciceronian litotes-like fashion because that's what "difficult" people like me do.

This is a limited-edition collection of four songs from their back catalogue re-recorded with the Brooklyn Youth Chorus, followed by three songs re-worked as "ASMR" versions (which means "autonomous sensory meridian response" for those of you not familiar with various types of meridian responses), followed by a new instrumental version of "For the Damaged Coda," which originally appeared on their "Melody of Certain Damaged Lemons" album. To add to the confusion, one of the "choir version" tracks, "Coda," is also a version of that same track. The fact that it's mostly re-recorded material makes it hard to rank highly, but I'm confident they'll rebound spectacularly with their next proper studio album, which I predict will be entitled "More Songs About the Destruction of Citrus Fruit."

This Danish duo has a sort of moody, laconic, almost minimalist, maybe even slowcore sound with mostly just guitar, bass and drums. There isn't a lot of reverb, vocals are definitely waifish (not a bad thing!), and there are only occasional bits of added instrumentation — including real strings, which is nice. I actually liked their first EP, "Calendula," a little better than this, but it might grow on me if I cover myself with enough soil and fertilizer and water myself on a regular basis.

I sort of lost interest in this group after all those "Black Tar Prophecies" albums in the 2010's, but after hearing this I might have to go and check out some of their more recent albums, which seem to have different-colored tar in them. Their material still sounds like avant-garde suspense-film music to me, and that's not necessarily bad, but if you've starred in as many avant-garde films as I have... well, I'm sure you can imagine.

These songs were actually recorded in 2003, and then overdubbed with new vocals and other tracks in 2024, just in time for an early-2025 release date. That's really the best way to record an album - you have to give songs time to "digest" or else they come out sounding all pretentious or whatever.

James "Maps" Chapman is billing this moody, somewhat-trippy pulsing instrumental album as a "long-lost soundtrack to a half-remembered film," and as it turns out, there actually was a guy named Tudor Gates who wrote the screenplay for Hammer's cult classic "The Vampire Lovers." What's more, he released the album on Halloween! So this album has to be good, right? It practically goes without saying.

This band (not to be confused with fellow Californians Tripsitter from circa 2004, who were similar but more "surfy," or the Bloomington, Indiana band Triptides who were active circa 2014) takes a kind of "hybrid retro-pop" approach, whereby they'll write songs that sound like they belong in 2010, but record them with Fender Rhodes piano patches and horns that belong in 1970, only they're doing this in 2025. Basically, nobody really knows what's going on with these guys, but if you like those 70s-era records recorded by folks like Boz Scaggs, Al Stewart, and Gerry Rafferty (who was in Stealer's Wheel), you might like these guys too.

If you're a J-pop emo-punk singer with 7 cats and a fuzzbox, I guess you're definitely going to want to turn that wacky Vocaloid device up a notch or two. Or maybe ten... that's just how it's done these days. Don't blame these guys, they're doing their best! (However, I should point out that track 4, "Leno," has nothing to do with Jay Leno and is in fact a direct riff-lift from the Pixies' song "Gigantic.")

The Quietus chose this as their #1 album of 2025, so I won't spoil it if that makes you curious enough to go and listen to it. Just remember, those worms are real, and they're not there just to freak you out. (Well, okay, maybe they are, but they're still real worms.)
