Raising Hell

Run-D.M.C.

5/5

Finally a non-rock album, feels like I've been waiting so long. This shit is classic, every song on here is catchy af. This is the kinda shit I was waiting for.

Bayou Country

Creedence Clearwater Revival

2/5

The music's not objectively bad but there's something about this band that doesn't sit right with me, I don't know what it is.

Elastica

2/5

Couldn't really get into this. As much as I've tried, I don't think punk rock is for me.

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Classic Rolling Stones, as classic as classic rock can get.

american dream

LCD Soundsystem

3/5

Started out a little weak but got progressively stronger with each song. I like the synth-heavy rock style that they got going on.

Harvest

Neil Young

4/5

Some nice folk/country vibes. The inclusion of orchestral instruments in a couple songs was a nice touch. Old Man is catchy af.

Station To Station

David Bowie

3/5

As much as I like David Bowie, this album started out a little weak. The last couple of songs were great tho, Stay is funky af, and Wild Is the Wind is classic Bowie.

Green River

Creedence Clearwater Revival

3/5

Led Zeppelin

4/5

I think Ameen's hatred of Led Zeppelin's poisoned me. Even then It's still a good album, you can see how so many other bands were inspired by them. The instrumentals are super impressive and super catchy.

Sweetheart Of The Rodeo

The Byrds

4/5

Pretty good folk/country album. Not sure if it's something I'd listen to on the regular but I like the instrumentation and the mastering.

Coles Corner

Richard Hawley

4/5

Very chill album. Started with a sorta Sinatra/Peter Cat Recording Co. style of jazzy, later transitioned to folk/county. Starting to notice a theme with this site.

Queen II

Queen

3/5

It's Queen lol. Not their best album imo, A Night At The Opera tops it by a mile. Does that make me basic? Probably, but I stand by it. March of the Black Queen is really good tho.

The Cars

2/5

Pretty generic classic rock, didn't feel like there was anything super special about it.

Exile In Guyville

Liz Phair

3/5

Was hoping I wouldn't get a rock album for once. It's clearly more lyrics focused, they're very straightforward and to the point. This is definitely one of those albums written to get some shit off the artist's chest, no filter and no bullshit. The instrumentation is a little weak and generic though, which is something I look for first before I even listen to the lyrics. That being said I can see myself being in the mood for this kind of aesthetic.

This Year's Model

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

2/5

Kind of a meh album. Instrumentation can be interesting, the vocalist's voice is a little annoying. HOWEVER the drum solo in Lipstick Vogue is great

Raising Hell

Run-D.M.C.

5/5

Finally a non-rock album, feels like I've been waiting so long. This shit is classic, every song on here is catchy af. This is the kinda shit I was waiting for.

Elastica

2/5

No Other

Gene Clark

4/5

Pretty good folk/prog rock mix, I like it a lot.

The Rise & Fall

Madness

4/5

It's like if Avenged Sevenfold was an 80s british rock band and wrote The Wall. 4 stars.

The Boatman's Call

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

3/5

Unexpectedly chill, thought it would be another punk rock album from the album cover. Pretty mellow and melancholy. I can see myself being in the mood for this.

Machine Gun Etiquette

The Damned

3/5

This felt like a much more interesting punk rock album than the ones I've heard previously. Plan 9 Channel 7 reminds me Pigs by Pink Floyd, maybe cus it's in the same key but it really got me.

Bayou Country

Creedence Clearwater Revival

2/5

The music's not objectively bad but there's something about this band that doesn't sit right with me, I don't know what it is.

Talking Heads 77

Talking Heads

3/5

Not much I can say about this besides "it's Talking Heads", that is to say it's pretty good.

Tago Mago

Can

4/5

This is really scratching the prog rock itch, I really like it. Super groovy.

White Ladder

David Gray

3/5

Pretty chill soft rock, instrumentation leaves something to be desired but his voice is kinda soothing.

Wild Gift

2/5

Something you'd hear playing a little too loud in a bar out in the hipster part of the city. Pretty middling.

Countdown To Ecstasy

Steely Dan

3/5

I'm noticing a lot of these albums start out kinda weak but then get a lot better with each song. This is one of those albums.

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady

Charles Mingus

4/5

Millions Now Living Will Never Die

Tortoise

4/5

I have a soft spot for these types of prog rock albums.

Synchronicity

The Police

3/5

It's The Police so it's bound to be good in some capacity.

Rings Around The World

Super Furry Animals

3/5

Disraeli Gears

Cream

3/5

It's Cream!

Screamadelica

Primal Scream

3/5

Something I'd listen to walking down the street on a sunny summer's day. Definitely a vibe. If I was there I would've given it a 4 but unfortunately it's winter time right now so it's a 3 from me.

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

2/5

I'm normally the biggest synth pop and new wave defender. There's some catchy songs here but on the first listen through this one felt kinda...bland? Songs are kinda repetitive and the album as a whole just goes on for a little too long.
