The Stooges

4/5

It definitely sounds like "raw power" Extremely loud, noisy, you can easily feel every single sound. The vocals like very raspy, kind of demonic? animalistic is probably the word that I'm looking for. Very noticeable on penetration. Not the biggest fan of I need somebody. I'd give it a 4.5/5

Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)

Eurythmics

2/5

I don't have that many thoughts about this. There isn't anything that really sticks out to me as memorable (outside of sweet dreams but i think that's just because it's famous) but I don't think that it's doing anything particularly bad either. Middle of the road for me. 2.5/5

At Fillmore East

The Allman Brothers Band

4/5

not my kind of music but it's undeniably high quality.

Is This It

The Strokes

4/5

catchy, fun, albeit simple. A nice short and sweet listen with no filler, solid 7.5-8/10

Tubular Bells

Mike Oldfield

3/5

Who's Next

The Who

5/5

Nonstop rock from start to finish. Insanely iconic introduction and closer but the meat and bones hold their own for the runtime. 4.5 to 5/5

Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite

Maxwell

5/5

fantastically smooth and sensual. impossible not to get into the mood while giving this a listen

Rattus Norvegicus

The Stranglers

4/5

Are You Experienced

Jimi Hendrix

5/5

fantastic show of technical ability and groovy songwriting. iconic for a reason.

Bert Jansch

3/5

i think the first song is fantastic but i quickly lost interest for the vast majority for the rest of the album. the songs were not bad but did not do enough to garner my full attention. the runtime is quite short though which makes it relatively acceptable. 2.5 to a 3/5

Risque

CHIC

4/5

starts off especially strong with Good Times, although i think it overstays it's welcome by a couple of minutes. while each song was extremely groovy it suffers from being quite repetitive. The runtime is quite short though which keeps the good times rolling without bearing too hard on the listener. 3.5 to a 4/5

Oxygène

Jean-Michel Jarre

4/5

great atmosphere, progressive futuristic spacey mood with seamless transitions between songs to make one cohesive experience. Didn't completely blow me away (most likely because i've already listened to so much modern electronic music) but it's easy to get sucked into the world of this album and it's creation is truly impressive. 3.5-4/5

Harvest

Neil Young

4/5

aside from a man needs a maid and there's a world this album is phenomenal.

Oar

Alexander 'Skip' Spence

2/5

Blood And Chocolate

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

2/5

I really do not like the singers voice. everything else is fine albeit a little generic if i'm honest

Little Earthquakes

Tori Amos

4/5

Time (The Revelator)

Gillian Welch

3/5

Bayou Country

Creedence Clearwater Revival

3/5

Darklands

The Jesus And Mary Chain

3/5

nice to listen to but a little too simple

Live At The Regal

B.B. King

3/5

Whatever

Aimee Mann

3/5

It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

Public Enemy

4/5

pure raw energy

Halcyon Digest

Deerhunter

3/5

fantastic atmosphere, unfortunately doesn't do too much else that's notably interesting. 3-3.5

The Predator

Ice Cube

4/5

Vanishing Point

Primal Scream

3/5

i appreciate the ideas but i find it falls flat for most of the runtime. 2.5-3/10

Ill Communication

Beastie Boys

2/5

it's quite boring to be honest. the instrumentation is alright, everything to do with the vocals is not though. the lyrics are delivered in a way that you would expect to be loud but it's often drowned out by the instrumental. i don't like the effects they put on their vocals, it adds nothing and only makes it harder to understand what they're saying. I think if it weren't 20 songs it would be pretty decent but listening through the entire runtime back to back grows quite tiring as there's very little variety or points of interest. I do like sabotage though 1.5-2/5

Pink Moon

Nick Drake

3/5

the guitar playing on this is immaculate but i'm not super interested by the vocals. still very relaxing to listen to

Darkness on the Edge of Town

Bruce Springsteen

4/5

Mermaid Avenue

Billy Bragg

4/5

Don't Come Home A Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your Mind)

Loretta Lynn
