Jul 7, 2024 Title: Claio - Sling Standouts: Bambi, Amoeba, Zinnias, Just for Today, Reaper Skips: Little Changes, Joanie Score: 8/10 Final Thoughts: While it certainly is depressing as other users have pointed out, "Sling" by Clairo feels like a cozy afternoon spent reflecting on life. This album is filled with rich, vintage sounds that remind me of older records. Jack Antonoff's production is top-notch, beautifully layering acoustic and electric elements. The lyrics hit home with themes of finding yourself, dealing with fame, and personal struggles. Simply put, it's a beautiful, touching record. And although it's not something I see myself returning to very often, I can imagine it suits well for those introspective moments when you need to feel understood. @AOTWClub @Justin Trudeau
Jul 7, 2024 Just for Today is so good. I NEEDED that song when it came out. So relatable. Perfect one sentence description Fax
Jul 7, 2024 Ya gonna do eminem week until the 22nd then I'm probably up since the person ahead of me hasn't reviewed anything
Jul 7, 2024 Obviously my score won’t count but since most reviews have came in now I’m gonna try to get my true thoughts on the album out tonight or tomorrow
Jul 7, 2024 I’m fine either way tbh honestly anything to make the time between now and Thursday at 11 PM go by faster
Jul 7, 2024 Yeah that’s fine. I’ll just get my review in before Friday like I normally do. That’s kinda what I’ve been doing anyway so I can focus on the new music that comes out on Fridays
Jul 7, 2024 If I get a few more votes I'll go for it but I think Eminem will overshadow this week which I'm cool withb
Jul 7, 2024 If you’re okay with having a couple days shorter review window then sure, but I’m fine with whatever
Jul 7, 2024 Alright I've decided I'll go this week even though that f---ing a------ eminem is gonna ruin my week lol Grew up on this album, I dunno how well received this album will be but im gonna throw it up there I honestly feel like this album covers so many of the issues in society, it did back in the 90s when it was released and it still does today The first punk album of album of the week @AOTWClub The Offspring- Americana I will tally up Clairo same as usual on Tuesday Hope you guys enjoy the album, was one of the first I bought as a kid and didn't understand the lyrics and now I'm like s--- so much of this is relatable
