A weird experience, definitely. It mixes in stuff that sounds like early-2000s pop with some alternative music things that I can now see that have even affected some other more modern music that I've heard. The whole album works wonderfully together and it has a solid musical theme throughout, but no one specific song jumps out to me as outstanding. A good listen, which I'd recommend to _most_ people, though.

I mean, it's Highway to Hell. It's good, classic rock. Enjoy it.

An interesting album, divided in two halves between a solid atmospheric electronica style and an electronic rock style. Both are really good halves, and are worth listening to even if you're not particularly into either genre.

"Cryptic lyrics" doesn't really seem to convey how odd the lyrics in this album are. They feel like stream-of-consciousness lyrics mixed and matched in with odd choices which serve to add to the instrumentality. Overall I've found myself enjoying the rhythms in the songs, which have some rather nice beats to them. Specifically "Pearl's Girl" is great in this aspect. "Sappy's Curry", the second half of the second track in the album, in particular, hits a very neat note with the instrumentals and a wonderful backing rhythm that I found myself enjoying, and I wish it was a song by itself. Stagger also has a very good sound together with the voice work, and it was a surprisingly enjoyable listen. Overall a very odd album from a genre I do not listen to much, but overall enjoyable despite IMO a weak and extremely confusing opening track.

A very interesting album. It has a vaguely ethereal feeling to all the songs, many of which have honestly fairly depressing themes. That being said, all the songs in the album were great to listen to, if you happen to be in the right mood for this sort of music. Standouts in the album for me are "Happiness" and "A&E", both of which hit very good instrumental and lyrical themes that honestly keep you paying attention to the music.

Wooden Ships has a really nice vibe. Most of the rest of the album is ok but feels kinda overworked. It gives off a mostly calm feelings but the lyrics feel "meh" in general. Clearly the group has potential but I'm not certain why this album specifically was chosen.

The first album in the list I already knew. The title track and Homeward Bound are already extremely popular and well-known Simon and Garfunkel songs, but "Patterns" is an underrated piece. 7 O'clock news hits as hard as it always does whenever I listen to it. Still as good of an album as it always was.

I mean, it's Highway to Hell. It's good, classic rock. Enjoy it.

The only specific song I think that deserves highlight here is "The Rose", though apparently both "Mudride" and "In 'n' Out of Grace" did well as singles It is essentially an early grunge album Unless you're a fan of the genre, I see no reason to listen to this over Nirvana, soundgarden or Alice in Chains, all of whom have much better music than this It is, however, relevant due to the time of release, as it was recorded quite early into the grunge movement and it does definitely fit a lot of what the movement solidified itself around.

A surprising listen, With some synth-pop sounds I rather enjoyed. "Quiet Life" is definitely a stand-out track, and "Despair" sound great even if not a shuffle-worthy song.

Weird Reagea-Jazz with very clear messaging. Not much more to say, it was a good listen.

Extremely confusing album.

Some songs I could recognize, but otherwise feels like a standard good-quality folk rock album from the time. Solid, but not exceptional.

As expected from both artists, it's a great chill album.

The Painter of Women and Magic Hollow are standout songs, with The Keeper of Time close behind. Otherwise, a sound very much like you'd expect from the band. Enjoyable overall.

Overall solid classic jazz. Good, but can't judge more than that.

A very strange album which can feel both musically great while being uncomfortable to listen to - as the songs appear intended to be.

I believe the actual musical ability of the band members is really good. The guitar riffs and the rhythm are great, but the lyrics and the singing leave much to be desired. Solid, but not for me.

It's american folk music. Some of the lyrics are rather good, but the music itself is about as standard as you get for the genre, I feel.

A lot of songs that feel like they'd fit in perfectly as title tracks. Born to Run was immediately identifiable but Springsteen filled this album with songs that feel made to be massive hits. From the catchy piano tune behind "Backstreets" to the hard-hitting "Jungleland" lyrics and solo, this album felt very solid.

"Cryptic lyrics" doesn't really seem to convey how odd the lyrics in this album are. They feel like stream-of-consciousness lyrics mixed and matched in with odd choices which serve to add to the instrumentality. Overall I've found myself enjoying the rhythms in the songs, which have some rather nice beats to them. Specifically "Pearl's Girl" is great in this aspect.

It feels like your typical Garage Band vibe of Punk Rock. It feels... ok? Much of the album could use a bit more work (and especially the singer could use some more training, from the vibes of this album). It's very average and I'm surprised it's included within this list. The only highlights of the album are the song "Young Livers", which had some standout moments, but not really enough to make it worth recommending to anyone, and the last song of the album, "Burnt Alive", which lacks the standout moments of Young Livers but holds up much better through the song as a whole than anything else in the album.

I like the original Funk genre, and this album is a great example of it. The songs are fun to listen to and the rhythm throughout the album feels great, and I particularly like the opening track's radio welcome. If I have any one issue with the album is that every song in it feels "good" but nothing feels "great". A thoroughly enjoyable listen for anyone who's a fan of the genre and somehow doesn't know the album, and overall really solid.

Deep Purple in Rock is a great album with some fantastic songs from beginning to end. "Speed King" is a well-known classic rock song that opens the album really well, followed by the more dramatic and slightly more obscure "Bloodsucker". The third track of the album is one of Deep Purple's standout songs, "Child in Time", a particularly unique song which really uses the various skills of the members at the time. "Flight of the Rat" has some really good punk rock vibes to it, which come in unexpectedly after the more melodic-rock style of "Child in Time", but the song itself is great. "Into the Fire", "Living Wreck" and "Hard Lovin' Man" are solid songs that don't particularly stand out but are still fun to listen to, and the album closes off strongly with another well-known song in "Black Night", featuring what may arguably be Deep Purple's second-most recognizable guitar riff. While not my favourite album by the band, In Rock is still a great example of Deep Purple's most well-known lineup and is a great listen to any fans of the genre.

This album feels very... Unsettling. Between the lyrics and the instrumentals, many of the songs pass a somewhat creepy vibe, like something is wrong, and nothing highlights this better than the hit "Every Breath You Take", which is famous for the lyrical work in it. But other tracks like "Mother", "Miss Gradenko", and the curiously swing-themed "Murder By Numbers" also are good examples of it. As for standout tracks, I think the opening "Synchronicity I" is deserving of attention, as well as "King of Pain". This was an interesting listen, and a wonderfully cohesive album under an uncomfortable tone.

This was an... odd album. It's a rock-pop mix of mostly short songs, few of which stand out in any way. Many of the songs have a certain humorous vibe to them which gives the album as a whole a sorta cynical-funny mix of looking at things which is quite fun, especially tracks like "Abstract Plain", "Sir Rockaby" and "White Noise Maker". I think the one big standout track of the album is "Freedom Rock", where the instrumental work is given a bit more focus, especially in the song's intro. Overall a good listen, but not really something I'd particularly recommend.

Frank Sinatra is a great artist. The soft jazz sounds, alongside Sinatra's wonderful voice work make this a really solid album, though without many standout songs. I enjoyed the theme kept throughout the album as well, both lyrically and musically. It's an enjoyable listening experience and has a very specific vibe to it which can be a great fit for certain situations.

A very disconcerting experience. The album is dark and unsettling, with some particularly offputting tracks (mainly Frankie Teardrop, which features a very dark theme alongside odd-timed screams of varying intensity which may or may not quite be called "musical"). But even the more "joyful" tracks in the album like Rocket USA and Ghost Rider have a dark tone to them which makes this a very odd album to listen to. I believe it did a lot of what it set out to do, I just personally didn't enjoy much of it.

A very... ok album. I have little to say about it other than that it is, indeed, music, and that it has very clear political leanings behind it. As far as the album itself goes it is very middling. Ok to listen to but not particularly exciting and nothing about any song really stands out.

A very interesting album. It has a vaguely ethereal feeling to all the songs, many of which have honestly fairly depressing themes. That being said, all the songs in the album were great to listen to, if you happen to be in the right mood for this sort of music. Standouts in the album for me are "Happiness" and "A&E", both of which hit very good instrumental and lyrical themes that honestly keep you paying attention to the music.

Definitely not my type of music, but I can understand the appeal. Some songs did leave much to be desired in terms of the backing rhythm and the ability of the singers to sync up properly, but some flow decently well, such as "C.R.E.A.M." and "Wu-Tang Ain't Nuthing ta F' Wit". Overall an album I can respect even though I didn't enjoy it.
