OK Computer by Radiohead

This would be my soundtrack if I decided to ever slit my wrists. So whiny. Was listening on a bright beautiful day riding in Monterey and it really bummed me out. Billie Eilishesque

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions

Caught me off guard. This album was awesome. Sounds like it could have been made today. This sounds like classic punk. I can hear how he may have influenced Bad Religion and the bass style of Flea.

High energy and Jazzy. Pretty simple themes but super fun listen while riding in Asilomar. Banger

OK Computer by Radiohead

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Nov 15 2021

White dad music. Good noise to have on if you were working on your car in the garage. Sounds like modern Killers. Not for me…

Nov 16 2021

This guy talks more about guns than some rappers. Some clever lines here and there, but it’s the same 3 musical schemes over and over again. Tells many tall tales. How does this guy have the time to do all the things he claims he’s done. It’s fine. Sound like camp songs.

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Nov 17 2021

Perfect rap album. Phife’s voice is incredible. Rhymes come at you fast. Have to work hard to catch all their lines. Super analog sound. When I think hip hop/rap, this is the sound I think of in my head.

Power In Numbers by Jurassic 5
Nov 18 2021

What’s Golden and Thin Line stand out as iconic beats, but rest is pretty forgettable. Not bad. It’s fine.

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club
Nov 19 2021

Jazzy Mexican music. Pretty music. Nice to have in background for a dinner party. Not bad

Boston by Boston
Nov 22 2021

Starts strong with some power ballads but then everything ends up sounding the same. I can imagine white dads listening to this in the old muscle cars.

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Nov 23 2021

It’s fine. Sounds like music that would be playing in a mall or dept store or restaurant. I can see why people who like this kind of music would like this, but too bland for me

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Nov 24 2021

Sounds like if David Bowie was trying to be Pink Floyd. It’s fine. Songs are fine but nothing stands out.

Music From Big Pink by The Band
Nov 29 2021

Pretty boring. The Weight is good but the rest is bland

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Dec 01 2021

Album holds up. Super good and catchy. Many hits

Floodland by Sisters Of Mercy
Dec 02 2021

Shitty 80s music. So moody. Bland and forgettable

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Dec 03 2021

Caught me off guard. This album was awesome. Sounds like it could have been made today. This sounds like classic punk. I can hear how he may have influenced Bad Religion and the bass style of Flea.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Dec 06 2021

It’s Abbey Road. What is there to say. It’s perfect

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Dec 08 2021

Dumb jam band noise

Kid A by Radiohead
Dec 09 2021

Radiohead is so annoying

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Dec 13 2021

I can see why people think it’s good, but it’s repetitive wailing and pretty boring

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Dec 15 2021

Cool music. Sounds like early Beatles mixed with Bowie. Good cruising music

1999 by Prince
Dec 16 2021

It’s fine. It’s very 80s. I don’t get the appeal…

Deserter's Songs by Mercury Rev
Dec 17 2021

Very new agey. Interesting but not my favorite.

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Dec 21 2021

Pretty good. A little repetitive. Like a cross between Pink Floyd, Metallica, and Bad Religion

Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Dec 22 2021

Cool and very different. Surf punk. Sounds like white stripes and modest mouse. Where is my mind is iconic.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Dec 23 2021

Really good. I had only ever heard the first two songs before. The album was great. Her voice is unique.

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Dec 24 2021

Sultans of Swing is incredible and really stands out against all the other songs
