    Super Collider
    While there's nothing abhorrent about this album, it's so unobtrusive that it's practically not there, just one more forgettable release from a guy we're all secretly rooting for.

    If it was offensively bad, at least it'd be camp. Instead, each track is an ADHD simulation — so understimulating you forget what it sounds like seconds after it ends.

    Stay Awake
    There is still strength, a tenacious hopefulness that coils around every song, even as Stay Awake revels in its delicacy.

    Disrupted Ads (Audio Dispensary System), Vol. 1
    With Disrupted Ads, Oh No manages consistency, even when cleaning out the vaults.

    The Man
    The textured, varied sonic flourishes provide a sumptuous foundation for Omar's malleable voice to articulate the album's lyrical theme of embracing maturity and responsibility, preserving and reaffirming his impressive artistic relevance.

    Dream Widow EP
    Despite many of the songs not building on the promise of the opening track, there is a sense of playfulness to the proceedings. You can practically hear Grohl grinning throughout as he indulges in some thrash metal cosplay. Unfortunately, it sounds like Dream Widow was more fun to record than it is to listen to.
