MusicCritics (472 KP) rated Losing by Bully in Music

Nov 2, 2017  
Losing  by Bully
Losing by Bully
2017 | Alternative, Pop, Rock
It’s a salve for anyone who’s been trying to get free, and particularly anyone who’s gotten yelled at for it. Bognanno puts her anger on full display, inviting everyone who’s felt the same to join in and scream along.
Critic- Sasha Geffen
Original Score: 7.2 out of 10

The Animal Spirits by James Holden & The Animal Spirits
The Animal Spirits by James Holden & The Animal Spirits
2017 | Dance, Electronic

While it's a million miles from the techno of Holden’s earlier career, its rhythms and hooks are infectious. The Animal Spirits is, put frankly, one of the most complex, immersive and impressive albums of the year.
Critic- Corrie Innes
Original Score: 5 out of 5

Once again, I am in the minority with this book. It has received so many good reviews of 4 and 5 stars that I am beginning to think there’s something wrong with me because I just didn’t get it.

The Fate of the Furious (2017)
The Fate of the Furious (2017)
2017 | Action
The Fate of the Furious doesn't have a thought in its head to match the best of Bond and Bourne. What it is, in every sense of the term, is insanely entertaining.
  
Snatched (2017)
Snatched (2017)
2017 | Comedy
The set up is tired before it even begins, and despite the affections of the cast, nobody shines quite as bright as they should. For a movie about a couple of ladies lost in the jungle, Snatched could use some salvation.
Critic- Will Ashton
Original Score: 5 out of 10

In the Lonely Hour by Sam Smith
In the Lonely Hour by Sam Smith
2014 | Pop
Still, most of In the Lonely Hour is enjoyable just for Smith's voice alone—so unusual, unpredictable and utterly pleasing that it can be wonderful to listen to even through the most egregious of lite-FM tropes
Critic- Andrew Ryce
Original Score: 5.5 out of 10

Starboy by The Weeknd
Starboy by The Weeknd
2016 | Rhythm And Blues
Starboy won’t immortalize his legacy just yet but it will strengthen a once desolate Toronto kid’s placement in a musical sect he probably couldn’t even have ever dreamed of being in.

1989 by Taylor Swift
1989 by Taylor Swift
2014 | Pop
1989 is a fabulous pop record. It’s not perfect – I’m looking at you “Shake It Off,” and you too “This Love.” But it comes so close (play “Style” on repeat for a bit, and see if you still disagree).
Critic- Peter Tabakis
Original Score: 91 out of 100

Getaway by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Getaway by Red Hot Chili Peppers
2016 | Alternative
A band reborn? Possibly. Refined? Definitely. The brilliance of ‘The Getaway’ is in its subtleties, which define their most intimate and expressive album to date, and suggest that, after 32 years, the Chilis can still keep us guessing.
Critic- Simon Harper
Original Score: 8 out of 10

Game Of Thrones  - Season 4
Game Of Thrones - Season 4
2014 | Sci-Fi
The show has the blood and gore that a show set during the medieval period would expect to have. There are also some new wrinkles sprinkled into some of these battles, particularly the one at the Wall
Critic- Ryan Keefer
Original Score: 4.5 out of 5
