Derek & The Dominos
3/5
A few decent songs. Plenty of bland twaddle.
And Clapton is a racist piece of shit, so I won't listen again

Led Zeppelin
5/5
Some real classics. A few bits of filler
PJ Harvey
3/5
Nothing to get excited about. A couple of good riffs but never built on
Travis
3/5
Catchy jangly songs are quite good. Other songs are too dull
Solange
4/5
Some really good tunes. I find the monologues a bit "heard it before". Voice sounds very derivative
The Doors
2/5
The occasional catchy riff hidden behind a tidal wave of self importance from Jim.
It's like Morrissey and the Smiths only 10x worse
Missy Elliott
4/5
Really enjoyable, excellent grooves
Supergrass
4/5
Great fun. Couple of loose ones
Funkadelic
2/5
It just rambles too much with insufficient structure
Leonard Cohen
1/5
Mediocre music. With added dreary voice. And then it's all just the dreary voice
The Roots

Elton John

Beatles
4/5
Great songs and filler
Killing Joke
2/5
In the context of 1980 I can see why this was groundbreaking and influenced the whole industrial genre. It's just not my thing
R.E.M.
2/5
Oh rem. Must you really?
Carole King
3/5
Pleasant enough tunes for background noise.
Frank Sinatra
4/5
Just fun swing
The Mamas & The Papas

Dreary indie lo-fi drudge through someone's freshman college notebook that should have been burned a long time before it was used as inspiration for this turgid collection of half ideas mismatched to another group of half ideas created in the presence of musical instruments via some apparently random process
