Yank Crime

Drive Like Jehu

5/5

Awesome post-hardcore type sound, but in the early 90s! Must have been big influences on bands like At the Drive In and Thursday. Love the intricate guitar work and unique vocals.

The Marshall Mathers LP

Eminem

4/5

Great production, skilled lyricism, and catchy hooks! Despite all the controversy it is hard to argue that this album doesn't sound great. Brings me back to middle school.

Vol. 4

Black Sabbath

5/5

Already loved this album!

From Elvis In Memphis

Elvis Presley

4/5

Not what I expected from Elvis. I mostly his hits and so I was pleasantly surprised by this more country/soul album. Not being that familiar with the genre I would say it reminds me of Orville Peck, who, of course, must have been greatly influenced by this sound. I may need to explore this genre more...

Violator

Depeche Mode

4/5

Already love this album. Mix of industrial and new wave.

Pretzel Logic

Steely Dan

3/5

I liked a few of the songs, but haven't really ever been able to connect with Steely Dan.

Supa Dupa Fly

Missy Elliott

3/5

This album is more soulful and laid back than some of her other ones. I didn't immediately get into it, but I see how influential it was/is.

Let England Shake

PJ Harvey

4/5

I don't immediately love this album, but after a few listens I am really starting to enjoy it.

Coat Of Many Colors

Dolly Parton

3/5

Not my usual genre of music, but I enjoyed it.

The Marshall Mathers LP

Eminem

4/5

Great production, skilled lyricism, and catchy hooks! Despite all the controversy it is hard to argue that this album doesn't sound great. Brings me back to middle school.

Emperor Tomato Ketchup

Stereolab

3/5

Can't say I've really heard anything like this. It's a little hard to get into, but I appreciate how unique/innovative it is.

Oxygène

Jean-Michel Jarre

5/5

I'm not sure how I have never heard this album. I also can't believe it is over 50 years old! This is an amazing electronic album that takes the listener on a journey.

Morrison Hotel

The Doors

3/5

Good flow from one song to the next. Not my favorite Doors album, but pretty solid.

Destroyer

KISS

3/5

Solid rock and roll album.

Rocks

Aerosmith

3/5

Good classic rock album. Nice blend of hard rock and softer ballads.

Live!

Fela Kuti

4/5

Great blend of reggae, funk, world music! Very engaging and fun.

Brown Sugar

D'Angelo

3/5

Not my typical genre, but enjoyable R&B.

Rapture

Anita Baker

3/5

Good R&B. Not my typical genre, so nothing really stood out to me.

One Nation Under A Groove

Funkadelic

3/5

Another weird funk rock album by Funkadelic. I like about half of the tracks, but there are some others I could take or leave.

Scum

Napalm Death

2/5

Not really a fan of the vocals, but some of the riffs are interesting. I also wish the songs were longer and a little more dynamic. I understand why this album is important, but it's not my cup of napalm.

The Low End Theory

A Tribe Called Quest

4/5

Great classic hip-hop. A little jazzy. Great lyrics, good beats. Solid all around!

The Last Broadcast

Doves

3/5

Decent early 2000s "indie" rock sounding album.

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

4/5

Great example of soul/motown! Love the basslines and vocal harmonies!

Close To You

Carpenters

3/5

Pleasant folk/poppy album. Some of the songs sounded familiar, and some were definitely covers. Not bad, just not my style.

The Poet

Bobby Womack

4/5

Great mix of funk, soul, R&B (& maybe a little disco)! Great voice and danceable basslines.

Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)

The Kinks

4/5

Great early psychedelic/rock! I will need to listen to more of their music.

Guitar Town

Steve Earle

3/5

Good example of "classic" country / country rock. Easy listening, but not super captivating.

Kilimanjaro

The Teardrop Explodes

4/5

Good new-wave, psychedelic sound. Must have influenced The Smiths at least somewhat. I will need to give this more listens.

Sunday At The Village Vanguard

Bill Evans Trio

3/5

Great piano and composition work. A little softer than I prefer, but pleasant.

Alien Lanes

Guided By Voices

3/5

Solid example of indie/alternative/college rock from mid 90's. My issue is that the songs are too short to be memorable. I like the ideas, but I wish there 1/3 of the number of songs with each being 2 - 3 times longer.

Ritual De Lo Habitual

Jane's Addiction

5/5

Love this album! Such a unique fusion of different influences.

Unhalfbricking

Fairport Convention

Enjoyable folk rock.

Awesome post-hardcore type sound, but in the early 90s! Must have been big influences on bands like At the Drive In and Thursday. Love the intricate guitar work and unique vocals.

The Bends

Radiohead

4/5

Great mid 90s melancholy alt rock!

S&M

Metallica

4/5

Great orchestral re-imagining of Metallica classics! Very cinematic

Bossanova

Pixies

3/5

Cool alt rock. Some of the songs have a surf-rock type vibe.
