KIWANUKA

Michael Kiwanuka · 28 likes

5/5

This album was totally out of left field for me, but wow what a good surprise. This is a contender for my favorite album on my list so far. It is an absolute masterpiece

Nothing's Shocking

Jane's Addiction · 3 likes

2/5

I could barely stand Ritual De Lo Habitual, but this one was slightly better. Jane's Addiction is still not my bag but this could have been worse.

Hounds Of Love

Kate Bush · 1 likes

5/5

Did not expect to love this as much as I did. Kate bush rocks and has such a unique voice with some great songs to carry it

Dookie

Green Day

3/5

I enjoyed the album a fair amount, particularly the classics like Basket Case. Not crazy about it but objectively it is a good album.

Beauty And The Beat

The Go-Go's

3/5

We got the beat is a legendary song. Could take or leave the rest.

Haut de gamme / Koweït, rive gauche

Koffi Olomide

3/5

Definitely out of left field. Not my type of music but not terrible.

Raw Like Sushi

Neneh Cherry

5/5

Absolutely slaps. Love this era and genre. Buffalo Stance is definitely the standout.

Court And Spark

Joni Mitchell

2/5

A bit slow for my taste.

Live At The Regal

B.B. King

4/5

Great jazzy album. Classic.

Ritual De Lo Habitual

Jane's Addiction

1/5

Too heavy for me. Couldn't get through it.

Entertainment

Gang Of Four

2/5

Promising start sound-wise but they fell short of their potential.

Hounds Of Love

Kate Bush

Did not expect to love this as much as I did. Kate bush rocks and has such a unique voice with some great songs to carry it

Very middling. Ok at best.

B-52's

The B-52's

2/5

Pretty shit tbh

Africa Brasil

Jorge Ben Jor

2/5

This was really not my type of music. By the end I found it grating to the ears.

Tonight's The Night

Neil Young

3/5

Some ok songs, but overall not my bag. Neil Young is great, but this isn't his finest work.

Skylarking

XTC

3/5

I'm not sure about this one at all really. I think I enjoyed it? Maybe? But also maybe not. Cool sounds but didn't love it.

Paranoid

Black Sabbath

4/5

I really enjoyed a lot of this album. Didn't really consider myself a black sabbath guy, but they impressed me.

Fishscale

Ghostface Killah

4/5

I really enjoyed some of the songs on this, particularly The Champ and Three Bricks. Overall great album.

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

3/5

Honestly not terribly impressed by anything on here besides All Along The Watchtower

Teen Dream

Beach House

3/5

I expected to like it more. It kind of sounded a bit samey to me. I really like Beach house but it didn't hit as well as I'd hoped

The Man Who

Travis

4/5

Upon second listen I loved it much more than at first. I went on to listen to a lot of Travis' discography and really loved it. I think the band has better music on other albums, but this one was still great.

Nothing's Shocking

Jane's Addiction

2/5

I could barely stand Ritual De Lo Habitual, but this one was slightly better. Jane's Addiction is still not my bag but this could have been worse.

Maverick A Strike

Finley Quaye

2/5

I guess for reggae it could have been worse. Just barely.

Broken English

Marianne Faithfull

2/5

Weird. Did not enjoy, but didn't hate outright

My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

3/5

Enjoyed it a fair amount. Nothing crazy but good tunes overall

Post Orgasmic Chill

Skunk Anansie

2/5

Don't get me wrong, she has a great voice, and it shines it some of these songs. But jeez some of them are so bad it really drags the rest down

Tarkus

Emerson, Lake & Palmer

3/5

I don't care much for 20 minute songs but that's more of a side effect of modern listening habits. Overall I enjoyed it, but not crazy about it

Tical

Method Man

2/5

I just couldn't get into this one. I was expecting more after Ghostface Killah's Fishscale, which I loved, but I didn't walk away super impressed.

Bat Out Of Hell

Meat Loaf

4/5

Really enjoyed this one. I think I'd heard the title song before, but not really any of the others. The name Meat Loaf certainly does not betray the quality of his songwriting, which is probably why I've stayed away so long.

Rust In Peace

Megadeth

1/5

Headquarters

The Monkees

3/5

I like the Monkees. Turns out I really like their greatest hits. The rest of this is by no means bad, but just didn't hit right with me. (To be fair, I didn't listen to every single song on this LONG album)

A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Coldplay

4/5

Really great album. Loved it.

Deja Vu

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

4/5

Enjoyed quite a bit. A great, easy listening album

16 Lovers Lane

The Go-Betweens

3/5

I liked it, didn't love it. But hey that's alright.
