I don't like it

Spotify listen:

her third album.
loved the debut, had a Loretta/Tammy quality about it.
second album was 'blah' for me.
was interested in this one because Sturgill Simpson produced it and im a big fan of his.
a couple of tracks have a Sturgill sound IMO.
the majority just dont seem to go anywhere, theyre more of an Americana sound (and "going nowhere" is an issue with Americana at times).
a couple are genuinely decent tracks but theyre too far apart for me to be able to appreciate this one.
i guess Margo really is a stereotypical 'one trick pony' in my eyes which is a shame because she could be huge in the industry if she had the right songs.

from New Orleans
3rd album
it's modern r&b crap

single, lead track

enters the Billboard Hot 100 Songs chart at #77

I don't ;like it

Spotify listen:

from New Zealand.
Scrowler metal.
'nuff said!

i tried finding the lyrics to the linked song because i wanted to know what was making the dude so angry but i couldnt find them,
maybe that was his problem also?!

nothing ever gets anywhere near his debut single "Marvin Gaye"
i do not like it

back to their acoustic folkie harmonic best
absolutely gorgeous track

Spotify listen:

Aussie alt-rock trio.
third album.
i have their first two, like the debut, love the second one.
first two albums have a bit of a Britpop/Oasis feel to them,
this one is more (dare i say it?) pop/dance orientated in places.
not a bad album, only listened once but it is my least likable of the three so far.
would probably get it at a reduced price, woudlnt pay full price for it.

favourite track (has a similar sound to their first two albums)

Spotify listen:

well this one came out of the blue, wasnt expecting this!
worthy successor to their last album "the waterfall".
hints of Father John Misty, county, folk.
in fact, it sounds more like a Jim James solo album than MMJ.
either way, another quality album.
