MGMT
The idea of this being a collection of 3 fantastic songs surrounded by a bunch if mediocre ones is ridiculous, but that's because it's actually 2 fantastic songs and electric feel. I'm a sucker for a synth bass I guess. The fleetwood mac moment was nice also

I wanted to be a "Stevie Nicks carries" guy sooo bad, but they weren't lying, you really can go your own way.

Pretty sick, the title tracks is awesome
Is it a strong 4, or did I just listen to it after hearing Pet Sounds?

Every Picture Tells A Story
Rod Stewart
I almost liked this more, definitely some fun moments but it really felt long for no reason. Like this transitional period in rock was just about making the same kind of song but longer? Still glad I listened and a couple of the songs were nice. Is he good at the guitar? I feel like these solos are bad.

A bit repetitive but it's nice, bring back this 70s style of anti-racism tbh, Ibram X. Randy fr

Was thinking about it as a punk album that I didn't really love, but once I started thinking about it as a key precursor to grunge, it really opened up. Lots of fun.

Very sorry that he was going through it.
Gotta say though, not very much for me. I know it's over is so slept on and the best song on here.

Oh yeah
So many of the songs are so beautiful in their arrangements and harmonies, but as a whole I'm particularly drawn to how they use rhythm across this. Nude and Weird Fishes remain favorites but the energies of bodysnatchers and Jigsaw are revealing themselves to be similarly impressive achievements. Incredibly stacked top to bottom, wonderful time.
Check my Kid A review to see which I like more.
