Be
Common
Wow. This was unexpected - I've never heard of Common before, but his style is square in that intelligent lyrical/spiritual/social questioning style that really does it for me. Sounds east coast style, but Chicago in origin. Really enjoying this. Going to listen a 2nd time and then branch out to his other albums. This will be going into the liked songs for future rotation.

Never listened to Eno before. The synth sounds are a lot more raw than I would have imagined. He apparently likes bass guitar. It's... interesting, and ahead of it's time, but this is not what my decaffeinated brain needs this morning.

The Downward Spiral
Nine Inch Nails
This takes me back to freshman year at UC when I first discovered NIN. Staying up late, the smell of gesso in the drawing studios, the tagged stairs and hallways in Edwards Hall, bombing down Route 32 on the weekends in my old Plymouth... Hard to separate the memories from the music.

Motorhead is one of those bands I need to divorce the music from the life experiences and types of people I knew then who listened to Motorhead. Solid sound, they lyrics are... well, they compliment the music and I'm not listening to them for content. Just enjoying the drive and grit and rawness. Perfect to push you through. Very similar to ZZ Top. ...ok, except the song Jailbait. WTF Lemmy?

Why am I not more excited about Sonic Youth? I know I listened to them back in the day, this is music I like, but.. I've always just been 'meh' on them. I'm forcing myself to give them a studied listen this time. Still, I know they are important for when/where they are in the genre... just no spark for me.

Is This It
The Strokes
This is such an easy listen. One of the main groups that got me really interested in 'Indie' music back in the day - when I found them I was going through my divorce and needed something upbeat and different than the pop crap I was used to consuming. 'Last Night' and especially 'Hard to Explain' were like a gateway drug. 4 stars for helping to pull me out of a pit and keeping me company on my drives back and forth to Phila in the early 00's.

This album is kind of a guilty pleasure... I'm sure it doesn't rank amongst the most critically acclaimed, but it gave me comfort through some really rough times.
