Dec 14, 2024 Atonement - Killswitch Engage REVIEW Score: 6.5 Review: I can say, I was pretty cautious going into this album, but I enjoyed it. A large chunk of the score I can credit to the first 3 songs, they went HARD. After that, it was 50/50 if I liked the tracks or not. It just never picked up steam for me again. The album is not bad by any means, but it’s just above average for me. I thought it did sound great throughout though, crazy guitar shredding that I’m always a sucker for. Cool pick @Wreckless ! @AOTWClub @Justin Trudeau My Rankings: GNX - 9.0 Low - 9.0 Sling - 9.0 Cilvia Demo - 8.5 House Of Balloons - 8.5 Melodrama - 8.5 Orpheus vs. the Sirens - 8.5 Rare Chandeliers - 8.5 Seventh Son of a Seventh Son - 8.5 The Death Of Slim Shady - 8.5 Laugh Now, Cry Later - 8.0 Miles - 8.0 When the Smoke Clears: Sixty 6, Sixty 1 - 8.0 All My Heroes Are Cornballs - 7.5 Americana - 7.5 Indestructible - 7.5 Mannibalector - 7.5 Big Conspiracy - 7.0 Why Would I Watch? - 7.0 Atonement - 6.5 Kings Of Crunk - 6.5 MID AIR - 6.5 POST HUMAN: SURVIVAL HORROR - 6.5 Theater Of The Mind - 6.5 EAT ME, DRINK ME - 6.0 LIFTED or The Story Is in the Soil, Keep Your Ear to the Ground - 5.5 When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That s--- Gold - 5.0 DiggleDogg’s Rating Average: 7.54
Dec 14, 2024 Probably gonna start putting my ratings in a spoiler tag next review, the list is getting long (30 weeks of albums??? Holy s--- that went by quick)
Dec 14, 2024 it’s wild to think that the club started around early summer, and we’re approaching Christmas time.
Dec 14, 2024 I thought I would’ve drowned in Big Mac sauce by now. Can’t believe I’ve made it this far.
Dec 14, 2024 We need to force @Michael Myers to listen to Carti’s “Made It This Far” as a celebration
Dec 14, 2024 i managed to secure the pick. Not gonna reveal until tomorrow obviously, but it’s an album that i always play around the end of the year for some reason. The artist has been mentioned ITT before, so I hope y’all enjoy it.
Dec 15, 2024 I can't really explain why, but this album (alongside D'Angelo's Voodoo) is always on repeat during December/January. I guess it's just that good For this week's AOTWClub album I have chosen... Daft Punk - Discovery One of my favorite albums. This is the duo's second, and has some of their biggest hits like "One More Time" and "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger", and some great deep cuts. I especially love "Something About Us" and "Face to Face", but I consider this album be a perfect 10 so I might be a tad bit biased. With features from Romanthony and Todd Edwards, Discovery has continued to be incredibly influential more than 20 years after its release. I hope that you all enjoy (Sorry for the Carti bait-and-switch, we'll have to force MM to listen to WLR some other time). @AOTWClub @Justin Trudeau
Dec 15, 2024 Also FYI: I think it's an anniversary release, so the cover art on Spotify (and maybe other streaming services but I'm not sure) has been changed to this alternate made for the album's companion movie Interstella 555. So just keep in mind that this cover isn't the usual one
Dec 15, 2024 I’ve already marked “Something About Us” as a Favorite on Apple Music quite a while ago but I’ve never listened to a full Daft Punk album. I’ve heard their big hits like legend of the penis ft. Pharrell and a few other songs but other then that I’m fresh
