Written By: Filip Teovanovic Website: http://www.kurrentmusic.com/profile/?user=sufferhead [usrlist “Originality:4” “Vocals/Flow:5” “Lyrics:5” “Production:5”] Thirty years of music career, and Dinosaur Jr. still know how to make their fans thrilled. Their last album Give A Glimpse Of What Yer Not is a subsidiary for my previous claim. With their sound, which is never senescent, Dinosaur Jr have…

The Alchemist & Lunice: "Moving Parts" Album Review

The Alchemist & Lunice: “Moving Parts” Album Review

Written By: Andrew Sedo Twitter:@sedontweet [usrlist “Originality:3.5” “Vocals/Flow:4” “Production:5”] What happens when the grungy old man moves in with the shimmering loud young professional? It sounds like the pitch for a shitty network sitcom, but could easily be pressed into a metaphor for Moving Parts, the debut collab from legend The Alchemist, and not-so-new-kid-on-the-block Lunice. For…

Quavo & Travis Scott: “Huncho Jack, Jack Huncho” EP Review

Written By: Jordan Smith [usrlist “Originality:5” “Vocals/Flow:5” “Lyrics:4” “Production:5”] Quavo and Travis Scott teamed up together to release one of the most anticipated projects of the year and to say it lived up would be an understatement. Anyone who had their trepidations about this pairing wouldn’t have been alone, but these two put together a quality EP. Huncho Jack, Jack Huncho sounded…

Written By: Sam Marshall  Flashback to a classic Christmas album. [usrlist “Originality:3” “Vocals/Flow:5” “Lyrics:4” “Production:5”] In 1964, a huge time for progressive music making, not only in terms of music, but in terms of recording technology as well, the somewhat small-fry Beach Boys released their self titled Christmas album. At the time, the Beach Boys were known for their soft surf…

Damien Jurado: “Visions Of Us On The Land” Album Review

Written By: Filip Teovanovic Website: http://www.kurrentmusic.com/profile/?user=sufferhead [usrlist “Originality:5” “Vocals/Flow:5” “Lyrics:5” “Production:5”] Music has its own time-space continuum, but the music scene is dictated by the same one we live in. Often, music follows trends rather than its own pace, and artists dive into what is current, rather than focusing on creation of audio…

Eminem: "Revival" Album Review

Eminem: “Revival” Album Review

Written By: Jordan Smith [usrlist “Originality:3” “Vocals/Flow:3.5” “Lyrics:5” “Production:5”] Today, Eminem released his ninth studio album to somewhat warm reception. Over 19 tracks, he addresses Kim, Haley, Donald Trump, the state of rap music, and seemingly everything else that’s been on his mind for the last four years. The fact of the matter is that it’s decent at best. It has great songs,…

Eminem: "Encore" Album Review

Eminem: “Encore” Album Review

Written By: Jordan Smith [usrlist “Originality:3” “Vocals/Flow:4” “Lyrics:2” “Production:5”] When Eminem is mentioned, I immediately think about the greatest four-album debut run in hip-hop and arguably music history. The Slim Shady LP was a narrative of a hungry young man’s gritty coming-of-age tales of him coming to terms with the futility of the situation that surrounded him, and how hip-hop…

Björk: "Utopia" Album Review

Björk: “Utopia” Album Review

Written By: Sam Marshall  Bjork continues to deliver her signature uniqueness with her latest album. [usrlist “Originality:4” “Vocals/Flow:3” “Lyrics:3” “Production:5”] Björk’s 9th studio album unsurprisingly captures the classic whimsical sound that you would expect from Björk. Utopia is a 14 track work that doesn’t feel like an album as much as an extension of an idea. Without using the term…

Written By: Filip Teovanovic Website: http://www.kurrentmusic.com/profile/?user=sufferhead [usrlist “Originality:3” “Vocals/Flow:4” “Lyrics:3” “Production:4”] Noel, you old devil, where have you been last two decades? You had everything. You had a band at the throne of the world which you’ve ruined with your formula-based approach to music. You continued in the same fashion with your solo work.…

Ontologics: “Hits From The Abyss” Album Review

Written By: Sam Marshall  [usrlist “Originality:2” “Vocals/Flow:3” “Lyrics:3” “Production:3”] Hits From The Abyss is the most recent album from Ontologics, released November 2017. A greatest hits kind of work, it combines songs from two of their previous LPs. Ontologics run with a strange combination of modern rock, rap, pop and prog elements to make a “genre-blending” sound. Whilst it certainly…

Big Sean & Metro Boomin: “Double or Nothing” Album Review

Written By: Jordan Smith [usrlist “Originality:2” “Vocals/Flow:3” “Lyrics:1.5” “Production:5”] Today, we got the release of Metro Boomin & Big Sean’s Double or Nothing. The production was strong, as expected but Big Sean’s lyrics didn’t really cut it. The features that included Travi$ Scott, Swae Lee, 2 Chainz, Kash Doll, 21 Savage, Young Thug and Swae Lee were lackluster at best, and would have…
