5/5

DAOWN BY DA RIVURRRRRR AH SHAT MAH BAYBEEEEEEE

Doolittle

Pixies · 10 likes

5/5

Awk COME ON. It's feckin' Doolittle like. It's "alternative rock" at it's finest, whatever that actually means.

Rust In Peace

Megadeth · 9 likes

4/5

This album is like an hour long and 50 minutes of that are tappin solos, if you like metal you're a virgin, but if you don't you're a bigger virgin

Goodbye And Hello

Tim Buckley · 3 likes

4/5

You get out a big pot and mix together Al Stewart, Harry Chapin, John Martyn and Harry Chapin... you get Tim Buckley. And it's pretty tight

From Elvis In Memphis

Elvis Presley

3/5

I mean... it's Elvis. It's good shit, but you ask me to tell the difference between the album tracks, and I can't help ya bud

The Scream

Siouxsie And The Banshees

4/5

This album is sick. Kind of got a bit of Velvet Underground energy but sounds so dark... I don't really know what to think about it - it's good, really good, but it's definitely something you need to be in the mood for. That Helter Skelter cover was bizarre af

Wild Is The Wind

Nina Simone

4/5

Nina Simone is acclaimed for a reason

Hounds Of Love

Kate Bush

5/5

BANGIN

At Folsom Prison

Johnny Cash

4/5

Classic. So damn good. Johnny Cash sings with such heart and has a voice like gravel running through your fingertips

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

3/5

Was alright. Didn't blow me away like. Lot of these classic albums suffer from a bad case of the samesies

Thriller

Michael Jackson

4/5

Michael Jackson... music's original bad dude. Actually some sick album tracks on this. And the guitar solo from 'Beat It' is so damn metal.

Kenya

Machito

4/5

This album is the same age as Mervyn... but it's aged so much better. I think this is my favourite to come up so far. An album that I've never heard of that actually rips start to finish.

Step In The Arena

Gang Starr

3/5

Ayy I've listened to this one before. Big Mos Def vibes but not as good

Aftermath

The Rolling Stones

2/5

Couldn't even finish it lads. Besides 'Paint it Black', 'Stupid Girl' and 'Under My Thumb', this album is so fucking boring. And here 'Paint it Black' isn't even on the UK version.

Talking Heads 77

Talking Heads

4/5

This album is dope. 'Uh-oh, Love Comes to Town'? Such a track. Love the steel drums. David Byrne has ass burgers out the wazoo but whatever. Not as good as Speaking in Tongues but sufficiently freaky.

The Joshua Tree

3/5

Some of the tracks on the second half of this album are a bit boring/naff but the first 4-5 really make up for it. Bullet the Blue Sky is slammin'

The Velvet Underground

5/5

Awk sure this album isn't as fried out as the one that came before it, but you can't really expect me to dislike it can ye?

She's So Unusual

Cyndi Lauper

4/5

Album is fucking loaded with hits. Album tracks, while decent, probably won't stick with me for long. Who's better? Cyndi Lauper or Bonnie Tyler? Fight it out.

Walking Wounded

Everything But The Girl

4/5

Remember my cousin listening back to this in like 2001... I was never big into DnB but this album is so sweet, it's like a mix of the chillest Aphex Twin beats or Shinichiro Yokata with some soft singing Annie Lennox. Fucking rules. And holds up.

Doolittle

Pixies

5/5

Awk COME ON. It's feckin' Doolittle like. It's "alternative rock" at it's finest, whatever that actually means.

With The Beatles

Beatles

4/5

I think either this or Beatles for Sale is my least favourite... But fuckin' hell like it's still jampacked with tunes and just bloody excellent.

Heartbreaker

Ryan Adams

1/5

Nope

Gunfighter Ballads And Trail Songs

Marty Robbins

3/5

BIG IRONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Eternally Yours

The Saints

4/5

It's like the Ramones... but less shit... and with horns. It's punk so it all kind of runs into each other, but I actually think it's a lot of fun! Also 'International Robots' is Aunty Donna as fuck

Hearts And Bones

Paul Simon

4/5

ALLERGIES!

Paranoid

Black Sabbath

5/5

Give it 5 stars or I'll get ye

Goodbye And Hello

Tim Buckley

4/5

You get out a big pot and mix together Al Stewart, Harry Chapin, John Martyn and Harry Chapin... you get Tim Buckley. And it's pretty tight

The Band

3/5

Yer Daw loves this one... and I think it's pretty cool too.

Apocalypse 91… The Enemy Strikes Black

Public Enemy

3/5

This album is pretty sweet for what it is - but Fear of a Black Planet is better.

Heroes

David Bowie

5/5

Of course this album is fuckin' fab. You all know it. But I had completely forgotten/never heard the instrumental tracks towards the end, and I wasn't really paying attention as I listened because I knew the tunes, but then these started playing and I was in some kind of trance.

Live 1966 (The Royal Albert Hall Concert)

Bob Dylan

4/5

Super good shit

Emergency On Planet Earth

Jamiroquai

4/5

Jimiroquai Broadbent knows how much this slaps... Nah seriously, it's super cheesy, it's definitely of its time, and Jay Kay is an asshole. But I can't deny that this album is loaded with a fair few bops.

Siamese Dream

The Smashing Pumpkins

3/5

Mayonaise is the coolest song this band ever did And it's basically 'Sometimes' by MBV.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

5/5

Obviously

Pink Moon

Nick Drake

4/5

This album slaps pretty damn hard for a sad wee folky number. I like how it's way more downplayed than his other stuff. But it can't hold a candle to Bryter Layter

Violent Femmes

3/5

This album has some pretty sick tunes on it but there's something about that acoustic bass that simultaneously sounds really cool and makes all the songs sound the same

Appetite For Destruction

Guns N' Roses

2/5

Aw it's just far too much all the time but SLAESH

Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo

Devo

3/5

This is kinda like David Byrne if he got his hole once in a while but not too often because he's still David Byrne

Tommy

The Who

2/5
