One Sentence Album Reviews by Jacob Shelton
/Blossoms - Charlemagne - Virgin EMI
The musical equivalent of a pumpkin spice latte.
Alessia Cara - Know-It-All - Def Jam Recordings
The perfect soundtrack to committing suicide in a Target bathroom.
J Hus - The 15th Day
Who can we blame all this middle of the road bullshit hip hop on? ISIS? Man, fuck ISIS.
Rat Boy - Sign On - Hometown Records
The songs are pretty cool, but I'm disappointed it wasn't recorded by an actual rat/boy hybrid.
Section Boyz - Don't Panic
There are six guys in this group, so I know they can afford more than one synth sound.
Sunn O))) - KANNON - Southern Lord Records
Finally, something upbeat to listen to while I tend my garden under the full moon.
Paranoid London - Paranoid London - Paranoid London LTD
This album reminds me of smoking meth in the summer and driving around with the heat turned all the way up.
Girlpool - Before The World Was Big - Wichita Recordings
I feel like I would like this band's music a lot more if we were friends or if someone hit me in the head with a brick.
Fred Thomas - All Are Saved - Polyvinyl
Like if your fuck up uncle had a band, but cooler.
Eskimeaux - O.K. - Double Double Whammy
I dare you to convince me this isn't a Tegan and Sara cover band.
Unknown Mortal Orchestra - Multi-Love - Jagjaguwar
These guys sound like they're auditioning to write the next Miley Cyrus album.
