~ Album Reviews 💿 ~

Ah, welcome to the page that is dedicated solely to album & EP 💿 reviews. LPs and EPs of various styles are evaluated in this section of The Musical Hype – we don’t discriminate. Album reviews are also available on the home page. More often than not, the album reviews on the site tend to follow a track-by-track format, commencing with an intro paragraph comprised of background information, and concluding paragraph that wraps things up. Also, GEMS – the best, highly recommended tracks – are selected at the end of each review. Each album also receives a star rating, on a scale of 0 – 5 (½ stars are used as well), that is visible at the beginning and ending of the review.

It should not come as a surprise to see the analysis run north of, say, 1000 words. So, music enthusiasts everywhere – Musical Hypeians worldwide – get your fix of album reviews down below!!!
