ALBUM REVIEW: Cassini (5th Anniversary Remaster) by Sithu Aye

Cassini was Sithu Aye's first studio release when it was brought to people's ears in 2011. In 2016, the remaster was released, and in my opinion, it's really good. The guitar shredding is still great and it's really mesmerizing how it's kind of meshed guitar with space. It's pretty sick. Despite that, this album did give a feeling of drag. At times, I felt like it was going on for a long time and at points, I had zoned out. Overall though, the majority is great.

Devil's Score: 8

ALBUM REVIEW: Senpai EP II: The Noticing by Sithu Aye

So, I decided to do some more background check on the artist. Sithu Aye is a Scottish-Burmese guitarist who normally deals with prog metal. Now that's out of the way, The Noticing. It's a great EP yet again. There's something about the shredding of a guitar, but it hits me. It really does. The names of the songs crack me up and each song is just amazing. This EP does clock in at 22 minutes, 9 minutes longer than the previous, but it's still a great EP.

Devil's Score: 9

ALBUM REVIEW: Senpai - EP by Sithu Aye

When I first saw the name Sithu Aye, I thought "oh jeez it's gonna be one of those boring foreign music artists who drags on for over an hour". Then I realised what Senpai - EP would mean and thought "okay maybe it will be something like Moshi Moshi". AND THEN MY BOY FUCKING PULLS A FUCKING GUITAR EP ON ME. I cannot tell you how thrilled I was when the opening track "Oh Shit, I'm Late For School!" played and I realised that I was gonna get Polyphia vibes all over again. Literally, the whole EP is an amazing collection of guitar and I wholly suggest you listen. I mean, it's only 13 minutes long.

Devil's Score: 9
