The only thing I love about Thursdays is WUVT's new music reviews!
Mannequin Pussy - I Got Heaven
Label: Epitaph Genre: Grrrl / Alt / Punk For Fans Of: Bikini Kill, Wednesday, Sleater-Kinney, Chastity Belt
Reviewed by: Kate Stanko
Truly raw and beautiful album that questions love and femininity and abandonment. Tracks 3, 4, 7, and 10 are softer, whereas FCC are hardest, and leftovers are a good mix. I DO NOT recommend saying this band name on air, although it's so fucking awesome. Try a fun substitute, like Mannequin Kitty, Mannequin Vagina, Mannequin P-Word, etc. Some tracks remind me of Turnstile pacing and riffs (track 9), and of course there's some obvious riot grrrl influence too. Def listen to FCCs and front to back on your own time!

Hello, music lovers! We've been searching for some more in-depth album reviews, and boy did we find some! This week, we have WUVT DJs Naiel Habtemichael, James Brunson, and Skyler Rapp reviewing albums from reggae to rap to metal, with more coming soon!
In 1997, alternative-reggae-punk-rap rock band 311 released their fourth album, Transistor. Upon release, the album was immediately met with varying opinions. While some embraced 311’s attempt at trying something totally different, others were baffled and cried for a return to the band’s roots. Nowadays, the album is now much more positively regarded, and you’ll find multiple 311 fans gushing about how it's their all-time favorite. But is its newfound praise truly deserved?

Faye Webster- Underdressed at the Symphony
Label: Secretly Canadian Genre: Indie Pop Rock For Fans Of: Men I trust, Strawberry Guy, Beabadoobe Reviewed by: Colin Lewis
Although Faye Webster has honed and mastered her sound with her first two albums, Underdressed at the Symphony is a step in a different direction. While it still has some songs that are reminiscent of her previous Bedroom Pop style (tracks like Wanna Quit All the Time and Lifetime) she is now getting more into a rock-focused sound. Lego Ring is the highlight of the album with a buzzing distorted guitar and funky bassline. It comes out of left field with a great feature from Lil Yachty. He Loves Me Yeah! feels very much like a 90s rock song with fuzzy guitar riffs paired with Webster's vocals. She went all in on instrumentation in this album with ethereal points, like in But Not Kiss and Underdressed at the Symphony, which were absolutely beautiful. This might be Faye Webster best album yet, and it's exciting to see what comes next for her.
