Unknown Pleasures

Joy Division

2/5

Upbeat keyboard and bass centric. Simplistic male vocals 8/. Redundant-ish.

Abbey Road

Beatles

5/5

BeeeUhls!!!!!! \m/\m/ Best Evar and one of the greatest and most listenable albums there is.

Tusk

Fleetwood Mac

2/5

Don't like ALL Fleetwood Mac apparently. Sara's great, and maybe another

Searching For The Young Soul Rebels

Dexys Midnight Runners

2/5

Monotonous in a not good way for me. Singular in ways that don't suit - brassy and whiny. Vocals just not good.

A Short Album About Love

The Divine Comedy

2/5

Comes off like music for films. Melancholy. The lead singers vocals are standardly strong. Wishing for more haunting from him though.

Forever Changes

Love

1/5

More folk rock and less psychedelic. Not so much. A little weak for rock for me. Some Zepplin crossover but not quite enough - gets to renaissance-ish

You Want It Darker

Leonard Cohen

3/5

He comes off as using other songs to jump start his, then doing a tom waits voice over impression. The arrangements and assembly are top notch however. Does he do anything not sleepy on the edge of creepy?

Diamond Life

Sade

5/5

The Best!

Jagged Little Pill

Alanis Morissette

5/5

Another best! Quirky cool Alinis never disappoints

Rattus Norvegicus

The Stranglers

2/5

Right out of the gate with Sometimes I got a good cross between Billy Idol and Wall Of Voodoo. Rockabilly punk with overt brit accent. Actually varied and fun.

Debut

Björk

3/5

offbeat and interesting as bjork always is. Surprised by the toned down parts - almost fiona apple-ey. The show tuney parts though. Some annie lenox overtones. A little throwback to 60s/70s bond film music. Solid

Tapestry

Carole King

3/5

Carole King...who knew? hahaha. Are all the songs on this hits? Female light rock goodness. One lane, one really really good lane. Low key sound enough like each other to be everywhere without knowing it lolz

Younger Than Yesterday

The Byrds

2/5

Beatles-esque rock from the same era. A bit of the overly happy stuff. The Beatle Monkey's!!! Interesting in the same ways but comparatively mundane from a greatness point of view. Still solid overall.

Live Through This

Hole

3/5

Right out the gate with Violet. Girlie grunge elite. A bit more monotonous an album than I thought, but still some great jams. Solid

Red Dirt Girl

Emmylou Harris

1/5

Melodic whinyness. Pass

Ray Of Light

Madonna

2/5

Low vibration tonal decency with some rocky guitar licks. Dancy popy too. A bit of yawner in the grand scheme of Madonna. Might be her worst album.

E.V.O.L.

Sonic Youth

2/5

A bit redundant and a droning whiny with a solid serving of punky. A bit monotonous

Time (The Revelator)

Gillian Welch

3/5

Like a precursor to the cool True Detective song meets folk vibe. Some country and Ronstadt creeping in there too. Bluegrass too with the banjo hammerin'. Very decent

Hearts And Bones

Paul Simon

2/5

What can you say, modern Paul Simon. Nothing for me specifically to get my teeth into. Smooth well executed bland.
