Rattus Norvegicus by The Stranglers
May 10 2021

You know what you're getting with The Stranglers - upbeat post-wave punk. I just don't like the vocals. Hanging Around is a good song.

Apocalypse Dudes by Turbonegro
May 12 2021

90s punk, quite catchy at first but gets very samey after a few songs

Dummy by Portishead
May 13 2021

Boring Radiohead-style slow blandness

Swordfishtrombones by Tom Waits
May 14 2021

Well it's definitely different... Sounds like someone recorded an avante-garde hippie spoken word poem/drum circle jam session in large parts. Then other parts sound like 'railroad' songs with a more gravelly feel, which are better but just OK really.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
May 16 2021

Folky, twee and earnest. Plenty of swelling choral sections. Just a bit too pretentious and slow/boring for me though. I prefer my folk the upbeat kind.

Kid A by Radiohead
May 18 2021
Mr. Tambourine Man by The Byrds
May 19 2021

This is very of its time. Jingly jangly 60s acoustic/clean electric rock with typical 60s weird lyrics.

Ten by Pearl Jam
May 21 2021
Scum by Napalm Death
May 22 2021
Funeral by Arcade Fire

Jun 01 2021

A live album is a really strange choice, and especially for Motorhead. I love the music usually, but the recording quality is so bad that I just can't really listen to this album. I'm not sure heavy rock/metal really translates well in live albums at all.
