First Band On The Moon

The Cardigans

3/5

First review can't go too crazy. I'd always thought Lovefool was by Sophie Ellis Bextor! Everyday a school day. Favourite track - Your New Cuckoo

Post Orgasmic Chill

Skunk Anansie

Love the breakbeat intros on some of the tracks. Vocalist gives me Joss Stone vibes Fave track - On My Hotel TV

5/5

This album is a five. The triple snare drum into one of the grooviest riffs of all time to open the album on 'Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' is otherworldly People were actually telling man to 'Beat It' back in the day. Thriller, Billie Jean, even Paul McCartney does his ting on The Girl is Mine. Masterpiece. Fave track - P.Y.T

Heartbreaker

Ryan Adams

1/5

Rubbish

Marquee Moon

Television

2/5

"I hear that she likes to dance around the room, to a worn out 12-inch of Marquee Moon" Think 2.5 would be fair Fave track - Marquee Moon

Songs From The Big Chair

Tears For Fears

Belter

Dance Mania

Tito Puente

3/5

Was nice enough, feel the sounds sorta merged into one after a while. 2.5 would be fair

Unknown Pleasures

Joy Division

2/5

The meme cover album! Very moody. Headman sounds like Stan Marsh at times. Not a big fan.

Definitely Maybe

Oasis

B-52's

The B-52's

Kinda gay hahaha But seriously, enjoyed a few songs but it did go on for a bit Fave track - When did you stop loving me

Talking Book

Stevie Wonder

2/5

God dayummmm that was pretty underwhelming. Big Stevie W ya reckon... Other than the obvious I felt it was pretty boring. 2.5 rounded down. Fave track - Superstition

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

4/5

Wow. Great skits, deep lyricism. Tackles social issues and the plight of AA's in the early 90s. Despite touching on heavy topics the record comes across as fun as opposed to preachy. Messages still completely relevant today. Fave track - Who stole the soul?

Pretzel Logic

Steely Dan

1/5

yeah na

Palo Congo

Sabu

3/5

Dire Straits

3/5

Moondance

Van Morrison

3/5

I've been away but Henry's 5* drew me to this one. Quite liked it, Moondance the stand out track. Feel the album faded towards the end and lost a bit of funk

Nevermind

Nirvana

4/5

I believe the hype. These man were going crazy on this one

Queens of the Stone Age

4/5

Loads of solid, recognisable riffs. Enjoyed this one

Frank

Amy Winehouse

5/5

Wow what a record. Stronger Than Me into You Sent ME Flying/Cherry is a ridiculous opening. I felt the tracks may have been a bit long but the soundcloud era has damaged my attention span. Long Live Amy

Common

5/5

The Chicago Avengers got together to make this one. A fresh-faced, hungry Kanye West on production and Common barring like his life was on the line. One of my fave rap albums. Fave track - Go
