#6 Shryke (OVERWERK): my problem with this song and its ilk is that it sounds like something written for a game, or a TV scene, or to be chucked in the middle of a set of songs for people to not pay any attention to as they mindlessly dance along in the crowd (like suicidal sheep?), and the individu...

#7 Shryke (ONR): pretty good duet...the contrast of their two voices brought to mind the Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush dynamic from Don't Give Up Tranny (Billie): a bit of a throwaway from the album for me...I like the fact that she did a bossa nova tune but bossa nova doesn't do much for me, and neit...

1st Feb please.

#8 Shryke (Royal Blood): not bad...great energy, and good riffs and beat...A bit overproduced for my taste considering I loved their rawer debut album...even your guitar rock choices sound synthy ;) Tranny (Every Time I Die): yeah this is good...heavy riffs that hooked me instantly, great passionate...

#9 Shryke (Future Islands): It's his vocal delivery that's full of character that I like about Future Islands. The indie synthpop - sometimes I like it, sometimes I don't. Here it is okay. So song didn't stand out, vocals are great. Tranny (Halsey): yes this is cool. Does feel like a cinematic lead ...

#10 Shryke (Happy Fits): Basically what John said: can see you liking it, I don't Tranny (Tyler): I like the production and beats here but still just part of the album for me that doesn't stand out on its own Six (Little Simz): cool afrofunk and good vocals from both...the album is worth a listen wi...

We host an epic Triple J Hottest 100 day every year, and today is the day. It's the biggest day of the year for my friend group, some say more than christmas :lol: Today is the day, and all I've done the last few days is work and working around thhe house preparing. No down time to relax and focus o...

#15 Shryke (Volbeat): yep, that chorus again, both vocally and musically, like middle of the road prog, after a great start again Tranny (Every Time I Die): Tranny you've done it again! Just after you post a song by a band they break-up. This was good. I've not heard this before so interesting watch...

#16 Shyrke (LP): I'll pass, not much here for me to like Tranny (LDR): yeah the album paled in comparison to NFR, and I preferred the Blue Bannisters album, but this song is very typical Lana in a reliably good way and one of the better songs on the album. Six (Snail Mail): for the reasons mentioned...

#17 Shryke (Roosevelt): I can see the appeal but I have to try too hard to like this Tranny (BROCKHAMPTON): I just had this song on my top 100 on facebook not too long ago. Another great single from them, and Danny Brown comes through like he always does. A shame this may be the end of BROCKHAMPTON,...

#18 Shryke (Grouplove): this is a cool song. Grouplove know how to get a good balance between catchy upbeat positive pop and quirky weirdness. Although it doesn't quite reach the level of their first two excellent albums where they had that perfect. Tranny (Rivers of Nihil): this just passed me as I...

#19 Shryke (Morrisey): I liked this one better, more interesting musically and lyrics are fine. Tranny (Converge and Chelsea Wolfe): this is really good...I have a different song from this album in my top 100, where I think they work even better together, more as one entity than a collab. Six (Yard ...

#20 Shryke (UMO): That is a nice chord progression. I like UMO, and this is a cool example of their usual sound (although they have done an experimental psychedelic jazz instrumental album which is great - II is their best album though and a good one to start off with). They are an awesome live band...

#21 Shryke (Gary Numan): I liked the tinkly synth line matching the vocal lines in the verses. That worked well. I listened to the album the other day. Not bad. Not top 100 worthy, but not bad. Chosen was my favourite musically, and there was one about three or four tracks in that I really liked the...

#22 Shryke (Joe Satriani): the guitar playing itself and the melody is fine, it's the sound and vibe here that doesn't do much for me Tranny (The Weeknd): not much of a fan of The Weeknd but they always have one or two really good songs I like on each album. This isn't one from Dawn FM. It works as ...
