If the songs sometimes feel like they’ve been beamed in from different decades, that’s by design. There’s no genre purity here—power pop gets into a bar fight with garage psych, soul shows up in a three-piece suit, and blues limps in with broken teeth.
Baroness gave the record a tense, uneasy beauty. You won’t walk away humming the whole thing, but certain moments will cling to you—half-heard, half-felt. Gold & Grey doesn’t aim to be perfect. It aims to be real. And in its tangle of glory and grit, it succeeds.
*Father of the Bride* is Vampire Weekend at their weirdest and most open—sunny melodies masking existential dread, West Coast ease clashing with quiet chaos. It’s a sprawling, pastel-tinted album full of contradictions that somehow feels at peace.
In the End, The Cranberries’ final album, is a poignant farewell after Dolores O’Riordan’s passing. It blends nostalgia with urgency, featuring their signature sound. Despite loss, the album celebrates life, love, and O’Riordan’s enduring emotional voice.
