Apocalypse 91… The Enemy Strikes Black

Public Enemy · 5 likes

2/5

I'm not the biggest hip hop person, but if this came on in a gym or something, I wouldn't be mad

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme

Simon & Garfunkel · 2 likes

5/5

BEST SIMON AND GARFUNKEL ALBUM. ONE OF MY FAVORITE ALBUMS OF ALL TIME. PAUL SIMON TOUCHES MY SOUL WITH HIS CLEVER LYRICISM. THE HARMONIES. OMG

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy · 1 likes

2/5

I don't usually listen to hip hop, but it was pretty solid Some of the tracks were pretty catchy, but I didn't feel a connection to it

Blood Sugar Sex Magik

Red Hot Chili Peppers

3/5

I'm not the biggest fan of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but this album was diverse in style and still unifying in sound. I enjoyed a couple of the songs and already knew a couple

Aftermath

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Mother's little helper was a great start to the album. Lotta Jagger's grunts. I love the sound of the time period, but not my favorite

Natty Dread

Bob Marley & The Wailers

2/5

Not something I would listen to again. I'm not the biggest fan of reggae, but I appreciate its impact on pop culture and some of the other artists I like

Every Picture Tells A Story

Rod Stewart

3/5

Isn't as poppy as I thought it would be. I appreciated the acoustic-ness of it.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme

Simon & Garfunkel

5/5

BEST SIMON AND GARFUNKEL ALBUM. ONE OF MY FAVORITE ALBUMS OF ALL TIME. PAUL SIMON TOUCHES MY SOUL WITH HIS CLEVER LYRICISM. THE HARMONIES. OMG

Pearl

Janis Joplin

4/5

you can hear the unadulterated passion in her voice. very powerful

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

2/5

I don't usually listen to hip hop, but it was pretty solid Some of the tracks were pretty catchy, but I didn't feel a connection to it

The Stone Roses

3/5

Quintessential Brit Pop. Pretty good, I liked the synthy 80's vibes that were going on

The Undertones

3/5

Solid punk rock album. A lot of it blended together for me, but this genre usually has that effect on me.

Skylarking

XTC

3/5

I started off skeptical, not really interested, but as it continued I really got into some of it. Synthy and experimental. Another Satellite was catchy

Haut de gamme / Koweït, rive gauche

Koffi Olomide

1/5

Not for me. Very different from what I'm used to. Too poppy for my taste

Superunknown

Soundgarden

2/5

I knew one of the songs, but I'm not really a fan of harder, grungier rock.

The Seldom Seen Kid

Elbow

2/5

I'm not the biggest fan of that sounding voice. Classic indie pop.

Ágætis Byrjun

Sigur Rós

2/5

A bit too etheral and experimental, even for me

Songs Of Love And Hate

Leonard Cohen

5/5

Entertainment

Gang Of Four

2/5

I appreciate it in the context of the time period, but not much beyond that

Elvis Is Back

Elvis Presley

3/5

Elvis does have quite the nice voice, I must say

Apocalypse 91… The Enemy Strikes Black

Public Enemy

2/5

I'm not the biggest hip hop person, but if this came on in a gym or something, I wouldn't be mad

Can't Buy A Thrill

Steely Dan

4/5

I previously only knew "Do it again", but there were many hidden gems to be found

Funeral

Arcade Fire

3/5

classic 2000s alternative. actually not that bad, I did enjoy some of it

Fragile

Yes

4/5

classic album, real good too

Risque

CHIC

2/5

I'm really not a big fan of disco. It wasn't bad, like I could groove to this, but I'm just not really feeling it

Heaven Or Las Vegas

Cocteau Twins

3/5

Gave me 80's vibes. I appreciated it.

Second Toughest In The Infants

Underworld

3/5

The first song inspired me to work out, but the thrill faded fast.

Stardust

Willie Nelson

3/5

I thought Willie Nelson was a different genre, so I really wasn't expecting this. More 80's than I thought.

The Boatman's Call

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

2/5

Maaaaaaaan I really didn't like it very much. Too lovey dovey/piano-y for my taste.

Junkyard

The Birthday Party

2/5

This was aggressive. Not sure how I feel about it. Not really my thing.

With The Beatles

Beatles

3/5

Not the best Beatles album, but it had a couple of hits. Something very nostalgic about old old beatles, even though I was not alive then

On The Beach

Neil Young

4/5

Big fan of the genre. Relaxing with some nasty banjo

Here Are the Sonics

The Sonics

3/5

Charming, staple for the time period, but faster and a lot more screaming. Kinda repetitive and the poor quality of the screams kinda hurt my ears, but it did go on to inspire later punk, so I'll give credit where credit is due.

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

3/5

I liked this one much more than the other album I already listened to of his. Less lovey-dovey, more rock type beat

Ingenue

k.d. lang

4/5

This genre reminds me of my mom, but she has a very lovely voice and sound

Abbey Road

Beatles

3/5

Medley was cool, but none of the songs were really memorable in their own right. Harrison carried the hell out of it
