Master Of Puppets

Metallica

5/5

A classic. Enough has been said about the self-titled track, but I just want to call to attention how brilliant of a piece Orion is. One of only a few Metallica instrumentals, and simply stunning.

Something Else By The Kinks

The Kinks

4/5

Very chill, great atmosphere and just a bit silly. Reminds me a bit of the Beatles, actually. I very much enjoyed it.

In The Wee Small Hours

Frank Sinatra

3/5

Good. Not dazzling or particularly thematic, but some real nice songs, and Sinatra's voice is lovely.

Tapestry

Carole King

3/5

Love the voice on this woman. A few standout tracks, but the sound was overall a little samey throughout.

Songs From The Big Chair

Tears For Fears

3/5

Chill. Some good songs and overall nice sound, but it mostly stayed in the background.

A Girl Called Dusty

Dusty Springfield

2/5

It was alright. She's got a lovely voice, but the music isn't really my style.

The Kinks

4/5

Hard Again

Muddy Waters

4/5

Some blues, baby! There's something very organic about the sound of this album's production that makes for a very different listening experience to the others. Blues is not my favourite genre, but this is the best of it I've heard thus far.

Street Life

The Crusaders

4/5

The jazz caught me by surprise, but it was a very welcome surprise. Super chill, great vibe, will definitely listen again.

Moon Safari

Air

5/5

I was not expecting to love this album the way I did. It is a level of chill and relaxing that is just sublime, and the choices of pads and synths carry the sound without ever getting stale. Best one so far.

Master Of Puppets

Dig Your Own Hole

The Chemical Brothers

4/5

Music For The Jilted Generation

The Prodigy

4/5

Heavy. Never heard heavy EDM before, but it was something I definitely want more of in my life.

Oracular Spectacular

MGMT

4/5

A little bit quiet-rambly in first, but really picked up in the second half. I was a bit worried that I wasn't going to enjoy it as much as expected, but I think a couple more listens will help me to really pick it apart.

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

3/5

Didn't really enjoy it as much as I thought I would. At some points it approached the Piper-At-The-Gates-of-Dawn absurdity, but never seemed to have the courage to cross that line, which left the weirdness feeling awkward rather than fascinating. A few very good tracks, through.

Vulgar Display Of Power

Pantera

4/5

Another classic. The raw Pantera energy is hard to match by bands even today, and the crunchy guitar tone is to die for.

It's A Shame About Ray

The Lemonheads

3/5

Reminds be a bit of a less energetic Blink-182. Overall a good listen, and I feel like I can see some influences from this kind of sound in modern stuff.

A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Coldplay

4/5

Very chill, some great tracks. Easy to listen to, but not the most exciting sound.
