Psychocandy by The Jesus And Mary Chain

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.

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Jun 22 2021

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 by Steely Dan
Jun 23 2021

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

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Jun 24 2021

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

Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen
Jun 28 2021

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

Ramones by Ramones
Jul 19 2021

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 by Boards of Canada
Jul 20 2021

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.

Jul 29 2021

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 by LCD Soundsystem
Aug 03 2021

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.
