The video for Stress is certainly very disturbing & makes an impact in the way it was intended to. That apart, for someone of my era I like a surprising amount of electronic & dance music & I'm sure there are many undiscovered gems still waiting for me but this incoherent cacophony isn't one of them.

‘Shout me Out’ has really grown on me after 2/3 plays but most of the rest feels disjointed & unharmonious, & the songs phase very awkwardly. 2008 must have been a very thin year if this was one of the top albums

Deep Purple
One of the formative albums of my youth & the first band I saw live (Sheffield City Hall, 1972).
I haven’t heard it for years & it probably wouldn’t be my choice of music these days but it’s great to listen to it again & even greater to see so many classic tracks, such as Highway Star, Child in Time , Smoke on the Water, & Strange Kind of Woman, holding up so well.

Absolutely can’t stand Iggy Pop so this was very much a ‘duty listen’.
Turns out that I Wanna Be Your Dog, No Fun & Real Cool Time are very listenable, & the clear pre-punk influence was interesting. Nowhere near as awful as I was expecting.

Album No. 191 & a serious candidate for being the worst of all.
The notes promised me an “album that spans several genres”; well if ‘aggressive’, ‘repetitive’, & ‘shite’ count as different genres then it delivers on that promise.
I just have no words to describe how awful this is from start to finish.

There isn’t a single track on this album which either improves the original, or failing that, at least showcases it in a different & interesting way. Some are saccharine karaoke poor & his rendition of ‘On the Sunny Side of the Street’ is nothing short of an abomination.
Considering the amalgamation of time, effort & talent that went into it’s making, this must be one of the most pointless albums ever released.

There's a reason most people have never heard, or heard of, any track on this album apart from 'More Than a Feeling'.
Any album that leads with a 'signature track' which showcases everything that's bad about 1970's American stadium rock & goes downhill from there is likely to be a tough old listen, & so it was.

Since I started this I must have listened to 150 different "American Rock Group" albums and honestly, I'd struggle to tell the difference between any of them.

Fabulous. A proper pop singer showing that the genre can be so much more than lightweight bubble gum pop peddled by the likes of Taylor Swift & Britneeeeee.

A Walk Across The Rooftops
The Blue Nile
Strewth that was painful.
I actually liked 'Stay' a lot so I'm giving this album a wholly unmerited 2 stars.
Every other track, without exception, is excruciatingly bad: discordant & disjointed tunes, sounds like industrial drumming that appear out of nowhere & into where they don't belong & embarrassing 6th-form lyrics.
I like a lot of early-80's synth pop & heard a fair bit of it back in the day, courtesy of being a mature student when it was in vogue, so when this one came up I was wondering how I'd missed it first time around. And know I know - it's just awful.

I've become quite partial to a bit of shoe-gaze so I wasn't expecting this tuneless, mumbling mess.
Musically it lost me in the first 5 seconds & never got me back. And I have no clue as to it's lyrical merit - passing such judgement requires the lyrics to be audible.

The Stone Roses
I never liked the little I've heard of their music - a mate in the '00's was a monster fan - & I always thought Ian Brown came across as a very unappealing character. Both views were formed years ago & before Brown's transformation during & after covid into one of the UK's foremost public idiots, and in combination were more than enough to prevent me from exploring them further.
So it was with a very heavy heart when this came up that I recalled my vow that everyone gets a chance & I'll listen to every minute of whatever gets listed.
Well, I was clearly listening to the wrong Stones Roses tracks, because - through the most heavily-gritted of teeth - I have to say that this album is utterly brilliant, almost every track has gone straight into my library & will be played plenty of times in the future.
And that just goes to show one of the reasons for doing this - to bring to bear a greater knowledge that will challenge & sometimes change, strongly held views.

Well, didn't this one bring out the haters.
I liked the title track, the rest is largely a pleasant inoffensive mush so I'm not going to die on a hill for this album but it doesn't come close to justifying the vitriol it's attracted on here.
This is album 632 for me & at least 25% of those have been a much tougher listen than this was.

Well this is a strange one.
My immediate thought was WTAF is this? And I kept on thinking that until I got to 'New You' which absolutely blew me away. I've played it time & time & honestly it's hypnotic.
But then the rest of the album reverted to being a horrendous, discordant mess.
So then I've thought that it needs a couple more plays to see if it will grow on me, but it's still one superlative, entrancing track on an album that's otherwise the most gad-awful insult to my eardrums.
So how to rate this? 5 stars for the one brilliant track, minus stars for the rest if I could so I'll have to settle in the middle.
