G-Nitro’s Daily Music Wrap-Up – 11/12/24

Daily 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die selection:

Spirit – Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus – Rating: 2 / 5

It’s obvious by my other Psych rock selections of this challenge, I generally don’t like that genre of rock. That being said, even for psych rock, this album is pretty bland and boring. Not even sure how they decided this needs to be one people must here, as the album comes off as a band who just was checking off boxes while making the album. It just sounds so manufactured that it lacks any type of personality.

Other Albums:

1999 WRITE THE FUTURE – Hella (˃̣̣̥╭╮˂̣̣̥) ✧ ♡ ‧º·˚ – Rating: 5 / 5 – Vinyl/Packaging Rating: 4.5 / 5

Honestly this might be my favorite hip hop release of the year. 1999 WRITE THE FUTURE has put out an amazing album with fantastic production, as well some monster guest features like Ghostface Killah, Busta Rhymes, De La Soul, Souls of Mischief, Deltron 3030, and even Korean hip hop legends Tiger JK and Yoon Mirae. This was already up there as a top 10 release this year, then I realized a vinyl had dropped and so I copped that. The vinyl release is standard black vinyl, but thankfully is spread across two records. The outer sleeve is a matte finish gatefold, and the inner sleeves are both printed with grafitti like artwork. Everything sounded great with no playback issues.
