Smash

The Offspring

5/5

I forget how good this is. Messy mid-90's skate punk, the stuff that got me properly into exploring music

Ramones

5/5

Stone cold classic. Messy, scrappy and as punk as you like. Fun from start to finish

Graceland

Paul Simon

1/5

Weirdly country-ish and totally rubbish. Don't like his voice, the music is both nuts and terrible. No idea what's going on.

(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Oasis

5/5

Big stuff. Until this album I'd never found music that really grabbed me, but this sold me on guitar and rock n' roll

Odelay

Beck

3/5

Unoffensive but uninteresting. A bit too "quirky" at times, so I couldn't really stick with it.

All Mod Cons

The Jam

3/5

Great bass and some cool punk moments but the mod stuff isn't really my thing. I wouldn't complain if this was on but wouldn't choose to have a long listen. Glad it didnt have those overplayed singles on though

Liege And Lief

Fairport Convention

2/5

Not completely un-likeable, but definitely not my thing. I like a lot of folk and this has some good grooves and chilled bits, but it's a bit TOO folk. It sounds like Maypoles and dancing in circles on LSD.

Before And After Science

Brian Eno

1/5

Really not my cup of tea at all. This just sounded like noise. Is it experimental? Just boring and messy to me.

Eternally Yours

The Saints

4/5

Graceland

Paul Simon

1/5

Weirdly country-ish and totally rubbish. Don't like his voice, the music is both nuts and terrible. No idea what's going on.

Smash

The Offspring

5/5

Scott 2

Scott Walker

3/5

Sounds like a mix of TV themes and hotel lobby music. Cracking voice and big orchestral sounds, but not my sort of thing.

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

2/5

Half the tracks here would be decent background music for a Cyberpunk game. The other half don't really go anywhere and don't have much going for them.

Risque

CHIC

3/5

Not bad music, but not my cup of tea. Some great basslines though

(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Oasis

5/5

Big stuff. Until this album I'd never found music that really grabbed me, but this sold me on guitar and rock n' roll

Superfuzz Bigmuff

Mudhoney

4/5

This dirty, messy garage punk makes me want to buy another Big Muff pedal. This album was fun, and short enough that it didn't outstay its welcome like some bands like this

Beach Samba

Astrud Gilberto

3/5

Music from a coastal driving montage in an Audrey Hepburn film, or from the make-up section of House of Fraser. Catchy and summery

Midnight Ride

Paul Revere & The Raiders

4/5

Very cool early-Beatles sort of thing. Catchy and fun. I could happily listen to this any day

Ramones

5/5

Stone cold classic. Messy, scrappy and as punk as you like. Fun from start to finish
