Like your drunk neighbors are having open mic night
Really carried by the two huge songs, I’m not interested in British faux honkey tonk
Not bad but not good enough to justify his personality
Some absolute bangers on this one. The organs, synth, electric Guitar, and bongos are all perfectly utilized. Loved it
Dude played for 25 mins barely coherent, stole half his set from little Richard, and then went home and slept with his cousin? Wack
Cool grooves and like the drum sound. Second favorite Steely Dan album next to Aja
Pretty mid but wasn’t a fan of the vocals which seemed as if they were punched in on an intercom. Plus the percussion mix was way lower for a good chunk of the album
Really samey and boring if I’m honest. Something about southern twang singing irritates me but I love Southern accented rapping, not quite sure why
Appreciated more than the Lucinda Williams country-adjacent album. I always find myself just trying to push through and not intently listening to country (however loose)
Wish the music was as cool as the band name
Pretty basic but interesting how old this album is
Good energy and fun to listen to albeit a bit samey
Feels like someone giving a condescending rant, I don’t think that’s the case but that’s the vibe
Really diverse set of songs, good for mind wandering
First relisten and something about the looping or extended beats come across as monotonous. I always have this issue with LCD Soundsystem for some reason. Enjoyable songs that get dry quickly
That 80’s ass bass, fun, and the Pleasuredome track was my favorite. Also never knew the band behind Relax
Typical Thin Lizzy, sounds like the regular album tracks
Not bad but not really my cup of tea either
Solid, I always associate with Modest Mouse for whatever reason but prefer the latter
Billy Joel’s country cousin, better than I thought but still not a fan
Really diverse set of songs, and not off the wall weird just unique
Fine, run of the mill R.E.M. It’s kinda crazy how mid or non important they feel as a whole while still having multiple generational hits that everyone knows
Like your drunk neighbors are having open mic night
Start of the decline, maybe it would have gotten stale but more thrash Metallica would’ve been dope
Hey man, my favorite Bowie album
Too ballady for me but the big singles still slap
RIGHT ABOUT NOW. Continuing the trend of learning where random one/two hit wonders are. Overall music loops>vocal loops
Pretty disappointed tbh. The album was just kinda boring
Ok. Liked songs that added horns the most
My mind always connects Nick Drake and Bob Ross for some reason. Both are calming, pleasant, and highly regarded by some following. But both I’m just kinda indifferent to
Classic. The west side branch of native tongues imo
Solid grooves, s/o to Pat for recommending this before
Always enjoy how Spiritualized build their songs into this huge cacophony
Still a fun listen. Crazy how this was outlandish punk music when released
Solid and the album art reminds me of the ‘jazz’ paper cups
Great alb but not my fav Jimi. Although Little Wing and If 6 was 9 are top 5 Jimi songs
Liked it, already familiar with the title track and season of the witch (unknowingly). I feel like this is The Doors lite, or without the edge at least
Good re-listen, I like the more orchestral parts of Arcade Fire especially the last track
Really hated the vocals on this and otherwise was only semi interested in the music
Quality boom bap but a degree under the classics from that era
Not bad but I think I would have liked it more without vocals. He sounds like me mumble singing to myself walking to the car or something
Feels like I should be driving through desert mountains, or I’m at a local Mexican restaurant set to a calming radio station
Absolutely slaps, closer to a 5 but not quite there for me. S/o Jake making this my 5th (?) Listen this year
Best Ice-T project I’ve listened to, always thought of him as a lesser Eazy E (even tho he came first). I dig the body count stuff too
A welcome relisten. Big sound like The Cult guitars, PS2-ass, 90’s tone.
Solid but still feels like they’re finding their footing. Killer Queen is a top 10 track tho
Not my steez but i liked it better than old man Cohen
Not sure why this is here it’s a run of the mill Christmas album. Also getting it on Christmas makes the random aspect sus, unless it’s just holidays?
This was the first Zappa album I listened to in HS. Willie the Pimp is underrated and Peaches En Regalia still slaps
Great alb, not the most technical stuff but the raw energy makes the band
Nice relaxing listen to end the new year
Sounds great stripped down and the covers are dope
Boring and tbh not sure why it’s here
AKA Atlantis Morsefest. 90’s as hell
Surprised to see them on here but honestly held up nicely. The drumming is really tight
Not really a Neil Young guy but this was some good classic rock
Classic, but a wholly overrated band
Really beautiful in parts, a little long
A 50’s artist I’ve always fucked with. Fats was that dude
“You know who’s good? Nirvana, y’all should try to sound like them” It didn’t work
Heavy one week by barenaked ladies vibes. Not bad tho
Probably my favorite Slayer album and without the immensity of Raining Blood I’m not sure they would be remembered with as high regard
Dude played for 25 mins barely coherent, stole half his set from little Richard, and then went home and slept with his cousin? Wack
Decided to look up the story this time and cool no one knows what the hell its about either. The music and ideas are still fun tho
Really chill and easy listening. Surprised at how early this was too, I’m a fan
Cheesy 80’s pop-rock, that has 3 of the biggest genre defining hits
Not bad but the music portion always seems ancillary to the lyrics
Alright but not really in a folk mood at the time of listening. The last track was eerie and probably my favorite despite the simplicity
Prolly my fav Alice Cooper album. The drums are just so good, especially on the eponymous track, that opening fill is too catchy. This time around I was impressed by the amount of piano too.
A lot of the record sounds like the opening theme for 70s/80s sitcoms. Which isn’t bad but not the best
Really great and sad it was his last album. Jimi and Mitch went off and you feel like you’re experiencing the experiments firsthand. Also the intro to voodoo child is still so fuckin cool
Did a quick Wiki on this and mad props to Fela Kuti. He showed integrity and the importance of making your voice heard through your art, and he suffered so much from it. The music itself lacking context is also really good
Their best album, fight the power is still anthemic
Cool album, favorite parts were where the keys and drums work in tandem as the guitar builds on a winding solo
Meandering but really chill
Ol Frank songs to chill and fall asleep to. Work environment didn’t help my engagement
My favorite Dylan album I’ve listened to, certainly the most “musical” one as well
Really carried by the two huge songs, I’m not interested in British faux honkey tonk
Charming, in his bag, sexy Frank absolutely > sleepy wee hours Frank
An ok album with a lot of ideas that just keeps goin and goin, oh hey jackass, anyways not bad
Being sex positive? Cool. Doing it like an after school PSA? Not so much
“God MC, me, J HOVA” with beats from Ye, Just Blaze, and that one Eminem. Issa classic
Some small twinges of late stage Beatles in here
Voice still kinda grates against me but thank god it’s not Brown Eyed Girl level
This is a review, I’m writing it right now. I love to write reviews online. Take that to the melody of Cars and slap some basic synth melodies and you have this album
Still impressive for the time and a great listen every time
Surprised R.E.M. has more than one on the list and this not being my second choice I may be very surprised they have 3 on here
Not my thing and the singer sounds like Carl Weezer from Jimmy Neutron on some songs
Really like the grittiness of white stripes despite their simplicity
Never really dug her stuff before but pleasantly surprised to like this album
Papa still a classic but even the Intro is a but droney for no reason. Solid alb
Pretty solid, 10cc always exist on my peripheral of interesting bands I remember existed
Classic. Beyond classic and over loved often but still tight. Also forever connected to Paul Blart now
Nice soundtrack for a weekend of family fun
His voice is just goofy and this album put me to sleep
What does Depeche Mode mean? Cool album tho, one of those bands where I should listen to more but I never do
I enjoyed it, especially while making breakfast, but the language barrier creates a sameness throughout
Iconic... album art but what’s with the music tho? Not very special or interesting or good really
Still great and fun to listen all the way through. S/o to my cousins and their Limewire plug
Not bad but not really my jam either. Happy dad-adjacent rock
Aight, very general appeal but nothing mind blowing inside
Feels like a rock opera/musical and maybe it is but I haven’t paid much attention to the lyrics other than the weird furry dialogue. Dude can sing but not really my thing
Really good energy that works for the straight up rock/punk music
Bizarre beats that never really work for me but it truly is unique
RIP Cliff who knows what may have been post And Justice For All. This album still slaps
Enjoyed it and couldn’t grasp what it reminded me of until I saw the suggested Spotify page for Blur
It’s hard to not prefer the Bruce fronted band but the first two albums kick so much ass too. Great songs that they still play live like Running Free and Ofc Iron Maiden is just a testament to how timeless this album is
Should have taken their own advice, there’s another album with that name already ya na?
The guitar on the self titled track was tight. The other tracks were cool too but that specifically stuck out
Ok but not great. Never hear anything about this band either
No prejudice activated. I liked it, guess he really carried Wham! huh
I understood most of it, not so broken after all
Dang they snuck me with Man on the Moon and Everybody Hurts. Still can’t believe they have 3 albums on this jawn
Honky Tonk Beatles strikes again
Solid rock album with a lot of notable tracks. S/o Guitar Hero Aerosmith
Dude sounds like that blue CGI alien in Star Wars episode 6 after George tinkered with them. Just goofy
I enjoyed the jam stuff, just sounds like a fun show to be at
Not my favorite NIN but really good. Hurt is a classic
Probably my favorite Em project even though there are some stinkers. His attitude and image work a lot better before he worries about being heralded as the best rapper ever
Hooked me from that sample that Passin Me By uses. Chill beats to zone in with
This was a fun album, but not the greatest for sitting at a desk at work. Also wish I knew the name of that whooping instrument in the back of some tracks
Doesn’t take itself seriously which makes it a fun listen
Not sure what they fall under (new wave?) but I dig it. The bass tone and up tempo beats get me
Not bad but way too long for the type of music they’re playing
Enjoyed it and really appreciated the brevity of this album. I’m not grasping why it’s super revered tho
Great album, I really love the strings, horns, and other accompanying additions
Ok but I’d categorize it as music for boring hippies
This album has already faded from my memory and I listened to it yesterday
Not bad but not good enough to justify his personality
Solid Bowie but doesn’t hit as many peaks as his top work
Honestly much better than I expected. I had always thought more energy went into his image than his music from songs here and there.
Hey it’s the Jojis. But absolute classic and very accessible Prog Rock. The album art is so iconic too. S/o Chris Squire
Still probably the best female MC of all time. This album is fantastic in about every way. Lauryn is also the most equal in talent between rapping and singing
Spoken word or something this close to it shouldn’t belong here imo. I’m here for music not poetry
More disjointed than I typically enjoy Bowie albums but he still fits the album sound to his personal style well
Some absolute bangers on this one. The organs, synth, electric Guitar, and bongos are all perfectly utilized. Loved it
Solid punk but a little samey, which i could say for most Punk I’ve heard
A truer sentence has never been uttered since
First Mingus album i listened to and still really good on the relisten. This shit drips
Radiohead vibes but more opera-tinged(?) music
Solid blues jams. The first track blew me away and I was like “holy shit he sounds like Santana”.... the track just featured Santana tho lol
The talk box is fun and this dude really loves Da whey. Wasn’t this like the most sold album of the decade or some shit?
Real solid and shows the potential this band has, but not my favorite QotSA. The Josh Homme guitar tone is sick
Really liked the layering of this project. There’s a lot going on and it all meshes really nicely, sick alb
Interesting but never wowed me
I don’t recall a Wizard. Interesting take on borderline genre bending but nothing blew me away
I lack the knowledge and intelligence to articulate how I feel about different jazz albums. But I liked this
Epitome of aggressive early hip hop, it’s crazy to see his rebrand (top 3 with snoop and ice t). No matter how shitty my day is “It Was a Good Day” will always hit
I’m going to stick with the Bob Ross comparison but I enjoyed this album more than Pink Moon
Pleasant but my girlfriend asked if we were listening to elevator music
Beautiful and possibly the best album ever made. The interstitial poem is ingrained in my head. RIP Pac
Not bad, does everything a punk album is supposed to do, probably won’t come back tho
Comes across as a dork but the music is solid
Really underwhelmed the first time I listened and had the same dull play through this time as well
Love OutKast but in the minority of not absolutely loving this album. It’s got joints for sure but a smaller chunk feels like filler. Still great
Missy is dope and whew that feature list
Really good still but I think I prefer badmotorfinger. The hits are all time on this one
Another miss for me from the Stones, it’s lacking something. Coincidentally listened to this the day Charlie Watts passed. RIP
Pretty dated but she does well as any emcee from the era. She reminds me of the female Ice Cube just not as aggressive
Really appreciate this album for starting the experimental Beatles arc. The songs are all good but nothing way out there AND on the level of The Beatles hit popularity. Shockingly the most well known song from this album is probably Yellow Submarine, which kinda makes my point.
Cecelia is a song I know but never known the name of, which is always fun to come across
Bass lines were the highlights, I guess this counts as Disco?
Absolutely slaps, way cooler than I thought it would be
Not sure if it’s in his best but still really good
Amazing album. The first time I ever listened I was very mixed, especially jarred after the intro On Sight, and gave it like a 5/10. But now everything has clicked and I love this like his earlier work. Bound 2 is top 3 Ye songs
Insane he pulled this off his debut, I mean the production alone Is stacked. The cover is literally one of the first images in my head when I hear “hip hop”
Never liked their song on RockBand which was my introduction so happy to say this was a solid album
Not a fan of the white noise guitar effects on this one
Wheeeewww that SOUL man
Don’t know how to pin point it other than the obvious accent but big Brit vibes
This sounds like an album you’d put in the background of 50s movies when you don’t wanna use the music everyone knows
Really liked it despite limited experience with electronic stuff. Also cool to hear the missy/Ciara sample
Liked it a lot more than I thought I would as I imagined it as a Punk-ier album. Really nice atmosphere/vibe on the longer tracks, even the extended outro
Celtic colonialism vibes
Really great thrash project and cementing Dave stepping out from Metallica. Devils Island is a jam
Too samey and I prefer Charles with some energy not commercial tunes from A Christmas Story
Some of the sound effects were grating but otherwise I enjoyed this album. Prolly under Dummy
Super 80s and the beats feel real repetitive and not all that interesting
Ah this is where the subpar Sheriff cover is, ok overall
Is Layla the rock version of “and I fucked your bitch you fat motherfucker”, obviously George and Eric weren’t feuding like that though. Have you ever loved a woman is also pretty cold too. Anyways it’s alright, and was deservedly called so before people figured out it was Clapton’s newest outing.
Shining star is the easy bop to single out but it’s all good shit
Not bad but buddy holly has always felt pretty lame
Sometimes it’s really cheesy but you gotta respect the boldness of this album
Has that beautiful melancholic tint that I love from The Smiths and is hard to find other bands that compare
Surprisingly my first Chicago album and it slapped. Great stuff and fun playing
Probably my favorite Black Keys project, just a lot of feeling bottled into these tracks
Really clean sound but can lead to tedium
Very much of their time. I had forgotten that Hey Joe was a cover, Jimi was out here claiming people’s tracks and wiping them out of history
Wheres Jah!? Someone get Jah on the phone
Avoided Willie albums cause I was afraid I’d hate the cool weed guy’s music. Happy to report it’s more folk vibes than country and I liked this album
Production is crazy and I have no idea how they paid for some of these samples (The Beatles!?). Rap wise you know what you’re going to get
The suburbs doesn’t need to sound this adventurous
Only heard the eponymous track before, liked the instrumentals but the vocals were a bit out there (as Bowie usually does). Solid
Like if tiny Tim went through puberty
Such a sick variety of songs that you’re never bored or feel the length of this project. This time around Happiness is a Warm Gun has become a favorite
That onion article might be the realest review out there
