Psychocandy

The Jesus And Mary Chain

4/5

Wow. It’s like a cross between the velvet underground and nirvana. Pretty unique. Their sound isn’t pleasant per se, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I haven’t really heard anything like this.

The Isley Brothers

3/5

3/5 Album. Pretty charismatic vocalist. Songs with an organ part or an active baseline are fun to listen to. Eclectic sonic quality

Countdown To Ecstasy

Steely Dan

2/5

I can respect their talent as songwriters. Not my style though.

Wish You Were Here

Pink Floyd

4/5

Awesome album. Love the blues inspired guitar and the themes within the songs. An album steeped in ideas and creativity.

Central Reservation

Beth Orton

1/5

Darkness on the Edge of Town

Bruce Springsteen

4/5

I love the Americana aesthetic, the lyrical themes of aspirations and disappointments, and the euphoric blend of piano, guitar, organ, saxophone, harmonica, etc.

Broken English

Marianne Faithfull

2/5

Ramones

3/5

Classic punk. I love the aesthetic. It’s pretty iconic. Their sound is influential, but homogenous. Not super creative in the songwriting department.

Music Has The Right To Children

Boards of Canada

2/5

Interesting sound. Their ephemeral coloring is pretty recognizable, and it’s not unpleasant to listen to. Personally, I don’t find it very pleasant either.

My Generation

The Who

3/5

Bluesbreakers

John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers

3/5

The Wall

Pink Floyd

5/5

Sweetheart Of The Rodeo

The Byrds

2/5

Sounds like stripped down country with a small infusion of Beatles. Not my favorite. Lacks many of the sonic qualities I appreciate in more contemporary country.

Sound of Silver

LCD Soundsystem

2/5

Sounds like someone took a Lou Reed or David Bowie figure and gave him an electro ethos with a hip hop kinda energy. Not something I’m inclined to love.
