Album Reviews-25th September 2023

Hello everyone,


Welcome to Album review Sunday, on a Monday. Each Sunday (or Monday in this case lol) I review the albums that came out over the week and share my thoughts with you.


Check out my face book for why my reviews are late this week:

We have several albums up today that I’m very excited to share with you but first off a bit of a disclaimer from me:


DISCLAIMER: I do not know that much about these artists as individuals and I do not personally know if they are bad people. I am reviewing JUST their music and what I think of their album. I do not necessarily support them. If you know something about an artist I have reviewed that you feel I should be aware of please feel free to contact me. I listen to all the music on headphones so I would recommend you to do the same. I do not listen to or rate explicit songs as I feel you can find everything needed in clean songs. All reviews are based of my first time listen and what I was thinking at the time, and I do not always know the story behind the song or the lyrics.


THE RATING SYSTEM: The overall album will be rated with a system of 0.5/10 being the worst I’ve ever heard and 10/10 being one of my favourite albums. The individual songs will be rated with a 0.5 stars being the worst and 5 stars being one of my favourites. I take into account beat, lyrics and whether it is something I would personally choose to listen to.


On to the albums!



#3 Tension (Deluxe) by Kylie Minogue   RATING: 5/10

TRACK LIST

  1. Padam Padam 3.5 stars

  2. Hold On To Now 4 stars

  3. Things We Do For Love 4 stars

  4. Tension 2.5 stars

  5. One More Time 3 stars

  6. You Still Get Me High 2.5 stars

  7. Hands 2.5 stars

  8. Green Light 2.5 stars

  9. Vegas High 3 stars

  10. 10 Out Of 10 with Oliver Heldens 2 stars

  11. Story 2.5 stars

  12. Love Train 2.5 stars

  13. Just Imagine 3.5 stars

  14. Somebody to Love 2.5 stars




Overall thoughts: Honestly I didn’t like this a whole lot. Like it’s not the worst thing I’ve ever heard and it does have some bop to it but it just doesn’t feel original in anyway.


It’s very typical pop lyrics and sounds and all the songs begin to blend together when listening and nothing separates the songs between each other.


I definitely feel this album could have been way better than this.


I’d listen to this occasionally because it has a bit of bop but I didn’t enjoy the majority of the songs.



#2 The Beginning by FIFTY FIFTY   RATING: 8/10

TRACK LIST

  1. Cupid - Twin Ver. 3.5 Stars

  2. Cupid - Twin Ver. Feat. Sabrina Carpenter 3.5 stars

  3. Lovin’ Me 5 stars

  4. Tell Me 3.5 stars

  5. Higher 3.5 stars

  6. Log In 4.5 Stars

  7. Cupid 3.5 stars

  8. Cupid - Twin Ver. Live Studio Ver. OT4 3.5 stars

  9. Lovin’ Me - Live Studio Ver. OT4 5 Stars

  10. Tell Me - Live Studio Ver. OT4 3.5 stars

  11. Cupid - Twin Ver. (FIFTY FIFTY) - Sped Up Version 4 stars




Overall thoughts: This album was essentially happy vibes in a package. Even though I didn’t love every song on this album this was still just really nice to listen to.


The kind of music I’d listen to feel happy because it just feels bubbly.


#1 DUAL by The Rose   RATING: 9/10

TRACK LIST

  1. Dawn 2.5 Stars

  2. You’re Beautiful 3.5 stars

  3. Nauseous EXPLICIT

  4. Back To Me EXPLICIT

  5. Lifeline with Transparent Arts 5 Stars

  6. Dusk 3 stars

  7. Angel Feat. Trevor Daniel 4 stars

  8. Eclipse 5 stars

  9. Alive 5 Stars

  10. Cosmo 5 stars

  11. Wonder 5 stars




Overall thoughts: Full honesty I love all of The Roses music so I may be a little biased.


This was a very nice album. Beautiful songs almost ballad style songs mixed with some bouncy songs with guitar which I love.


When Alive came out as a single before the album was released I have had it on repeat and been so excited for this album to be released and it did not disappoint.


MY FAVE SONG: Alive - Honestly this is so hard to pick because I really love Alive, Lifeline, Cosmo, and Wonder but I’m gonna pick Alive. I  love this song so much. I really love the line “Lost my colour or maybe somebody stole it”. And I also really love the bridge, it was so unexpected but sounds amazing.


MY LEAST FAVE: Dawn/Dusk - Okay I purely have picked these because they were instrumental ones and I wouldn’t listen to these as much but they are still really good and I loved the carry over in Dusk from Lifeline which sounded incredible when you listen to the album in order.


And that concludes this weeks reviews. I hope you all enjoy listening to the music! Let me know what you thought!


Have a day!
