Virgin Suicides

Air

2/5

I mean it was fine. I didn’t dislike it. It just doesn’t bring anything that stands out and doesn’t have replay value.

Imagine

John Lennon

4/5

Strong 4. It’s amazing how well this album holds up. I can definitely see myself coming back for more. The lyrics, the vocals, the production, it all sounds great, even today. Very strong project.

Young Americans

David Bowie

4/5

Younger Than Yesterday

The Byrds

2/5

A rollercoaster. Pretty high highs and also some low lows. There was some good stuff here but not enough to keep me engaged throughout the whole album.

Bandwagonesque

Teenage Fanclub

3/5

Would give a 3.5 if i could. Really enjoyed the first half, but the second half didn’t stand out much to me. The guitar was really amazing throughout and overall I enjoyed the feel the whole time.

Grace

Jeff Buckley

4/5

Really liked this one. Just feel like everything was extremely well balanced and I was fully into the album all the way through. Everything was well done and I don’t have much bad to say about it.

Nebraska

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

Somewhere between a 2.5 and a 3 for me. It isn’t really something i see myself coming back to, but i can appreciate the rawness and darkness at the same time. Not bad, just not for me.

...And Justice For All

Metallica

4/5

More like a 4.5 to me. The vocals sometimes don’t completely connect, and a couple of the switches within tracks can come off a bit odd. Everything else is absolutely incredible. Really great stuff.

Halcyon Digest

Deerhunter

3/5

Overall it was really solid. The atmosphere it created was unique, and I enjoyed it. There were some standout moments, such as “Desire Lines,” but as a whole it was just good, not great.

I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got

Sinead O'Connor

1/5

This was a struggle for me to even get through. I understand what it was going for, but nothing connected with me at all. I couldn’t even finish the last song, which is the namesake of the album. Not really any redeeming qualities for me.

Imagine

John Lennon

4/5

Strong 4. It’s amazing how well this album holds up. I can definitely see myself coming back for more. The lyrics, the vocals, the production, it all sounds great, even today. Very strong project.

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady

Charles Mingus

3/5

Not really sure how to rate this tbh. I did genuinely enjoy it, but it’s a long form composition, not an album full of songs, so the re-listen value isn’t very high. I liked and appreciated it, but I can’t rate it too high.

Virgin Suicides

Air

2/5

I mean it was fine. I didn’t dislike it. It just doesn’t bring anything that stands out and doesn’t have replay value.

Deja Vu

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

3/5

Debut

Björk

2/5

I don’t like the dance beats at all. Sounds Sounds like a tik tok wanna be singer belting over the macarena at times. Not good. But not as terrible as some other stuff we’ve heard. Tries too hard to be experimental and “artistic.”

Snivilisation

Orbital

1/5

It was just plain weird. It was very out there and used a ton of non-traditional sounds. Just didn’t work for me. A 1 maybe feels a bit harsh, but it’s closer to a 1 than a 2.

In The Wee Small Hours

Frank Sinatra

3/5

It was good. I definitely enjoyed it. It was a little repetitive, but I honestly don’t really mind. Would probably give a 3.5 if possible, but it didn’t do enough for me to give it a 4.

All Mod Cons

The Jam

3/5

I liked it. Easy listen and felt pretty cohesive. Nothing groundbreaking, but good all around.

Kenya

Machito

2/5

I mean it was fine. There were a couple parts i really enjoyed. But it’s just not something I’m going to listen to again.

Broken English

Marianne Faithfull

1/5

Can’t stand the nasally tone of her voice. The music adds no depth. Not good. Not completely awful, but definitely not at all good. 1.5

The Rising

Bruce Springsteen

4/5

The emotion and depth is apparent throughout. Maybe a bit long winded at times, but overall it was really good. Solid 4.

A Short Album About Love

The Divine Comedy

3/5

It wasn’t great, there were some shortcomings. However, the fullness and depth of the music and atmosphere was really good. It was good throughout. Nothing too special, but nothing bad. Solid 3.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Elton John

3/5

The Marshall Mathers LP

Eminem

5/5

One of the best rap albums ever. I am definitely biased here, but it’s so good.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Beatles

5/5

It’s just a classic. Timeless and still amazing today. I need to listen to The Beatles more man...
