The College Dropout

Kanye West · 10 likes

2/5

Lots of big names but not much impressive stuff. Not sure why this is considered great. It hits lots of topics and is generally inoffensive I guess. Maybe it was more meaningful in its time.

1999

Prince · 1 likes

5/5

Interesting. Strange. Very sexual.

Ágætis Byrjun

Sigur Rós

4/5

Since it was all in Icelandic it was all about the music and not the lyrics. Interesting, felt a bit like Radiohead.

Brothers

The Black Keys

3/5

Station To Station

David Bowie

4/5

I thought I didn’t like Bowie. Maybe it’s just because I listened to this album without doing anything else at the same time, or maybe this album just hits better for me. Either way I enjoyed it

Fisherman's Blues

The Waterboys

2/5

Jam band - not really my thing

L.A. Woman

The Doors

3/5

The doors are Way more “jam band” than I realized

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

2/5

I can’t get over his voice. It’s like Kesha with sing-talk. There are some catchy hooks but ultimately this isn’t my thing

The Grand Tour

George Jones

3/5

Definitely old school country music

1999

Prince

5/5

Interesting. Strange. Very sexual.

American Pie

Don McLean

4/5

Better than I expected!

The College Dropout

Kanye West

2/5

Lots of big names but not much impressive stuff. Not sure why this is considered great. It hits lots of topics and is generally inoffensive I guess. Maybe it was more meaningful in its time.

Kid A

Radiohead

4/5

Seems written specifically for music critics. Hard to say if it was genuinely written or if the intent was to win the approval of a bunch of music hipsters. Either way it’s pretty good.

Rumours

Fleetwood Mac

5/5

Awesome album. A large majority of the songs could carry the album individually. It feels like a greatest hits album.

Cosmo's Factory

Creedence Clearwater Revival

4/5

Really fun! Almost every song was great but the duds...oof. There were a couple rough ones for sure.

Deep Purple In Rock

Deep Purple

1/5

That sure is some 70s rock

This Nation’s Saving Grace

The Fall

2/5

simple, repetitive and monotonous

Document

R.E.M.

4/5

Weird how much of a Talking Heads/TMBG vibe I get from this album. R.E.M. lyrics were so on the nose and political. I never really thought about it before.

Treasure

Cocteau Twins

3/5

Revolver

Beatles

4/5

the version on Spotify sucks. Who remastered this garbage? Just leave it mono.

Penance Soiree

The Icarus Line

3/5

Objectively is seems like a good album, but not really my genre.

Sunshine Superman
