5/5

The Boss's magnum opus.

5/5

I haven't heard this one in awhile. Love this album so much. R.I.P. Amy

The Visitors

ABBA

5/5

This would've been the perfect swan song had ABBA not made a comeback this year. Easily their best album

Wish You Were Here

Pink Floyd

5/5

God, this was beautiful. My favorite Pink Floyd album

Five Leaves Left

Nick Drake

5/5

Nick Drake is one of those artists that I have heard a lot about but haven't listened to yet. This album has really impressed me. I love the vocals, instrumentals, and the poetic lyrics. Looking forward to listening to more of his discography

4/5

Paul's Boutique

Beastie Boys

5/5

Hell yeah! You can't go wrong with Beastie Boys

Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)

The Kinks

4/5

This is my first Kinks album, before this I've only known a few of their songs (Lola, You Really Got Me, Sunny Afternoon, etc.) It's a really great album and I love the political commentary of the lyrics.

American Pie

Don McLean

2/5

Boring, mediocre folk pop album.

The Velvet Underground

5/5

I actually think this is better than "Velvet Underground And Nico".

Ok album. Fuck Eric Clapton tho

3/5

"Issues" and self-titled are better but this is still a solid album. "All In The Family" is complete trash tho

The Doors

4/5

Did not care for this album on my first listen a couple years ago. Enjoyed it much more on this second listen

My first PJ Harvey album (I've only heard a couple of her songs before this). What an excellent album! Some of the best 90s alt rock that I have heard. Excited to check out the rest of her discography

5/5

Orbital

3/5

Debut

Björk

5/5

Yes! Björk is my favorite solo artist of all time and while this isn't my favorite record of hers it's still an excellent debut

Rage Against The Machine

5/5

This album is very special to me. It saved me from becoming an alt-right biggot and made me realize that the politics that my family has forced onto me is nothing but lies. We need this music more than ever right now

Hounds Of Love

Kate Bush

5/5

One of the very few albums that I would consider "flawless".

The Man Who

Travis

3/5
