Day 752: RTJ4 by Run The Jewels

Also saving this one right after I hit the reply button. This one isn't as good as Run The Jewels 3 but it's still damn solid. I'm not in love with every beat and a few of the hooks are questionable, but still a damn fine album.

Best Track: A Few Words For The Firing Squad

Killswitch Engage released some Atonement B-Sides, dunno if you'll like em any better than the actual album from last year tho cause I remember you not liking it.

Also Lamb of God's self-titled album is coming out next week.

Day 755: Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers

Fuck you melon you got it right this time and I hate that. I feel like if it wasn't rona time, I'd be a lot harsher on this but somehow this just speaks to my isolation, cabin fever, loneliness and desperation for human connection that is likely going to lead me to some uncomfortable, dangerous places.

Wait, fuck, all of that about myself still applies outside a pandemic. Godfuckingdamnit. But still, I'm gonna have to revisit this when I can go outside again and see if I like it as much.

Day 756: Bridge to Quiet by Animal Collective

Fuck this holiday.

This EP is at least better than their last 3 or 4 releases. It's honestly pretty nice stuff! How is this throwaways?

I need to leave this country.

Day 757: KiCk i by Arca

I wonder what Arkuski is up to these days. This is better than their previous albums for sure. A bit too long though.

Best Track: Calor

Day 758: The Album by Teyana Taylor

That EP (or was it an album?) with the Kanye production Ms. Taylor dropped in 2018 is one I still return to. It's brief, full of personality and totally consistent.

This is overlong, kinda generic and VERY hit-or-miss. It's also frontloaded as all heck. Disappointing. The features are mostly good though.

Best Track: Lowkey

Day 759: Shall We Go On Sinning So That Grace May Increase? by The Soft Pink Truth (Album Choice: zperson)

I'm a waste. As of right now I'm a fucking NEET (that only partly changes in a month) living in my mom's dining room. I've burned bridges. I've missed countless opportunities. Some of those I wonder if they'll come back but they probably won't. Maybe it's for the best. Maybe I'm doing them a favor. I rely too much on the fun times to get me through the utter horror of daily life, and with COVID severely stymieing one of my main replacements for a personality, the utter void of nothingness that has become my daily life consumes me to an agonizing degree. I know that when remote classes come back in a few weeks this will not change, as I'm not a real academic, I'm a fraud and a failure. Was college a waste of time? Did I waste my money? Am I about to waste more? Paying this much for digital classes should be illegal. The thought of how far behind I feel, even if it doesn't match my age nor whatever else the fuck, brings insane existential agony. Hell, the return of my fake personality, that being going out to places that serve alcohol while trying to pretend to live "spontaneously" that only annoys people, won't cure me. Well, at least it'll make it less annoying to deal with knowing there's actually something to look forward to. I need to get the fuck out of MA. Whatever, man.

This album was mostly really good. I liked the seamlessness. A few annoying bits, but I'm gonna have to relisten to this more than once to really decide if I like it more or less than I did first listen.

Best Track: We (I'm a sucker for the groove what can I say?)
