The Predator

Ice Cube · 10 likes

5/5

Damn. I can't believe it's almost 30 years later and we're still dealing with the societal issues Ice Cube brings up in this album.

The Wall

5/5

What an icon. I am biased, but this is my first 5 star album. Such an explosive piece of history.

Faust IV

2/5

What a fascinating funky piece of music. I was expecting something along the lines of Rammstein. Not sure what I exactly got here. A couple earworm type songs. Not much else.

Fever To Tell

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

3/5

Halfway through the album and it's a spunky piece that perfectly fits the punk rock sphere. Doesn't much appeal to me. So far 2/5 After finishing the album I have a slightly better opinion. It's refreshing to hear a female rock voice. 3/5

Disintegration

The Cure

3/5

Solid album with a distinct 80s vibe. The sound gets wandering/meandering toward the end of the album, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Maggot Brain

Funkadelic

3/5

Funkadelic lives up to their name. Up tempo, experimental sounds at times. I appreciate the shorter length. A longer album might wear me out.

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

4/5

It's the Rolling Stones! A classic entry of theirs. A bluesy funk infuses the album.

Beauty And The Beat

The Go-Go's

4/5

Another rock entry with female vocalists and I am here for it. The simple harmonies they employ with multiple vocals is great. The sound is slick without being overproduced. Great album through and through.

L.A. Woman

The Doors

4/5

Wow. A blues infused rock album that, I think, was ahead of its time. Some really great sounds that could have been from today just as much at 50 years ago.

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

2/5

80s synth pop/rock that's not doing a whole lot for me. This might be the first album that I'm struggling to finish.

Under Construction

Missy Elliott

4/5

What an album! I am not a hip hop fan, but this album is incredible. The guest appearances are a who's who of hip hop. The content is sometimes funny and thought provoking. Other times a little raunchy, but always entertaining.

Illinois

Sufjan Stevens

3/5

Eclectic mix that sounds great in the background. I really wanted to love the album, but could never find time to power through it. Not sure if that means the album is no good or if I'm just too simple.

The Wall

Pink Floyd

5/5

What an icon. I am biased, but this is my first 5 star album. Such an explosive piece of history.

Woodface

Crowded House

2/5

Meh. Bland late 80s/early 90s pop rock.

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

4/5

Oh hell yes! A classic 80s guitar rock album

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

2/5

Meh

Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)
