No.1 In Heaven

Sparks

2/5

Don't want to say its a generic 80's record... but its a generic 80's record (coming from someone who loves 80's music). Aside from that, there is already a Sparks album in the list.

Not much into this melancholic music

Dimanche à Bamako

Amadou & Mariam

3/5

Not my personal taste, but pleasant listen more or less

After Hours

The Weeknd

5/5

One of the most, if not the most important artist nowadays. Great album. The side B of the record is majestic.

Fuzz

Chucklehead

3/5

Nice jazzy rhytm. Good record

Blink-182

blink-182

4/5

Very solid record. Even though, I think if there is a blink record that should be in the list it should be enema.

Sublime

4/5

Nice record. Not a big fan, but should have been in the list 100%. Instead of some Bob Dylan bullsh*t for example.

El Circo

Maldita Vecindad Y Los Hijos Del 5to. Patio

Not into this kind of music, even though I understand it's good in the genre.

The Best of The Hot 5 & Hot 7 Recordings

Louis Armstrong

Not much my style, but respect. Good music

Weezer

3/5

Solid record, should have been on the list 100%, for example replacing some bob dylan bullsh*t.

I And Love And You

The Avett Brothers

2/5

Not a bad album, but I think there is enough country/folk type music in the original list

Peasant

Richard Dawson

3/5

A kind of music which I rarely have listened to. Respect.

Relatives in Descent

Protomartyr

2/5

Not much of my taste

Discosis

Bran Van 3000

3/5

Interesting 2000's disco-like record. Much variety of sounds too.

Bloody Kisses

Type O Negative

3/5

Interesting sound. More of this experimentation with different sounds should have been on the original list, instead of so many repeated artists/genres

22, A Million

Bon Iver

2/5

Nice variety of sounds. Very interesting. Although it's not much of my taste, I'll give it a 2, but more of this kind of experimental sounds could have been on the list. This kind of "indie" music is kinda over-exploted nowadays also, I think.

Hammersmith Odeon, London '75

Bruce Springsteen

2/5

Although Bruce is a great artist, there are 5 albums in the original list already, which is A LOT. One more is redundant.

Boys And Girls in America

The Hold Steady

1/5

Personally don't like this sound at all.

Control

Pedro The Lion

3/5

Interesting record.

That Handsome Devil

3/5

Nice sound. Quite entertaining and new for me.

When Smoke Rises

Mustafa

3/5

Interesting

Nurture

Porter Robinson

2/5

No intention of offending anyone, but sounds as some generic indie sound very popularized in the latest era. Don't find anything particularly ground breaking about this

Game of Fools

Koritni

2/5

Some 2000's (that's now classic) rock band. Fine listening.

Oil of Every Pearl's Un-Insides

SOPHIE

2/5

When the name of the song/artist is in capital letters, you know you are going to listen to some mainstream more-product-than-music thing. After listening to it, I can confirm it's very much generic and brings nothing new to the table. In another era, artists liked to push boundaries, now I guess it's not fashionable.

Watch Out!

Alexisonfire

2/5

Nice rock-screamo like. Fine listening

Yeti

Amon Düül II

2/5

Weird listening... not neccesarily bad, but just not much my style.

The Black Parade

My Chemical Romance

5/5

Defining emo-era album. MCR nailed it on this one.

The Animal Years

Josh Ritter

2/5

Some chill-singer-songwriter music. Not much of my style, but respect.
