Meat Is Murder

The Smiths

5/5

I really enjoyed the ambiance of this album. The title track is so moody, I love it, and it's a great way to end the album.

Odessey And Oracle

The Zombies

2/5

I did not particularly enjoy this one. It was ok. Sounded a lot like the Beatles. A Rose for Emily was just very sad and Maybe After He's Gone was pathetic. Beechwood Park was probably the high point for me.

Blur

5/5

Not much to say, classic Blur.

Emperor Tomato Ketchup

Stereolab

3/5

Very French sounding. Ahead of it's time I guess.

Oracular Spectacular

MGMT

5/5

Moon Safari

Air

5/5

Fucking classic. I love it.

Bad Company

2/5

It was ok for what it is. Not really my thing. Rocksteady was pretty good.

Can't Buy A Thrill

Steely Dan

4/5

I was not expecting to enjoy it as much as I did.

A Northern Soul

The Verve

5/5

It was really good. TIL I like the Verve.

Paranoid

Black Sabbath

5/5

Such a classic. It's cool to hear the subtle stereo panning of the drums and guitars with headphones.

Wild Gift

4/5

Classic punk. I loved the way there were male and female vocals on most tracks. Really well done and catchy.

Connected

Stereo MC's

2/5

It was not my favorite. Couldn't really make it past the first couple tracks.

Bug

Dinosaur Jr.

4/5

This album was fucking good. I need to listen to more Dinosaur Jr.

Sea Change

Beck

3/5

It reminds me of Willy Wonka somehow. I like it.

Moby Grape

4/5

It was pretty groovy man.

Blood And Chocolate

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

2/5

This was really a chore to listen to. I feel like I survived an onslaught of Dylanesque whining.

Paris 1919

John Cale

3/5

Rhythm Nation 1814

Janet Jackson

3/5

It just makes me want to live in the 80s and drink Pepsi. I wish there was more of a sense of humor or irony to it. It's just very straightforward.

Brutal Youth

Elvis Costello

1/5

Triangle

The Beau Brummels

2/5

Raising Hell

Run-D.M.C.

3/5

Classic. Wish I could give it 3.5 stars.

Apocalypse 91… The Enemy Strikes Black

Public Enemy

4/5

Very good

No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith (Live)

Motörhead

3/5

It's raw, but I'm not sure in a good way. I may prefer their studio recordings. Probably not the best thing for 8:00 am at the office. I'm gonna take some ibuprofen now.

american dream

LCD Soundsystem

4/5

It's a classic, that seems older than it is? Makes me want to dance.

The Boatman's Call

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

3/5

The songwriting is really phenomenal, but it does get weird at times. I love when the organ gets going in the background and gives everything an ethereal vibe. I definitely have to be in a certain mood to enjoy this though. The last song is super weird.

No Other

Gene Clark

4/5

I didn't really think I would like this, but was very wrong.

Bert Jansch

4/5

It was a lot better than I was expecting. Made me wish I was sitting with friends around a campfire.

The Stranger

Billy Joel

4/5

This is definitely peak Billy Joel. I needed this one today.

The Rise & Fall
