Untitled (Black Is)

SAULT

2/5

Liked Only Synth in Church a lot Pray Up Stay Up was good too - upbeat, good piano, faint jazz in the background - kind of repetitive though But album definitely gives off black supremacy vibes - all for pride in race/culture but this seems as though they're above equality and superior to other races.

Beautiful voice. Honeysuckle Rose was favorite How high the moon sounded like she impovised. Love the live aspect of it, feels like I was really there.

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

2/5

Songs that are stories Fable of the Brown Ape was mad funny and I actually liked it The Lyre of Orpheus was also good Nature Boy was good Overall good, just not something I'd listen to really

Suicide

1/5

Alt 70s rock Girl was mad funny

In Utero

Nirvana

4/5

Last album before Kurt committed suicide Rape Me - cordero told me abt this one. Sounds like a similar chord progression to smells like teen spirit. Dumb and Heart-Shaped Box were also good

Lust For Life

Iggy Pop

3/5

One of the founders of punk Lust for life is okay - repetitive The Passenger uses the 4 chord progression - most plays on spotify unsurprisingly - also repetitive (just uses same 4 chords) Tonight and Some weird sin also not bad

Something Else By The Kinks

The Kinks

3/5

Harry Rag was funny Overall it was good, had some good piano and good trumpet, but I wouldn't listen to it much on my own time

Bongo Rock

Incredible Bongo Band

4/5

I knew Apache cause I've heard it in a lot of things - just didn't know where it was from Bongolia my favorite Overall so good, made me feel like I was on a remote island

Hotel California

Eagles

5/5

One of the greatest albums of all time Enough. Said.

Bob Dylan

3/5

One of the greatest songwriters of all time Liked Outlaw Blues, On the Road Again, Mr. Tambourine Man Heavy on the harmonica

Rumours

Fleetwood Mac

4/5

Damn near every song is a banger..

A Hard Day's Night

Beatles

4/5

I should have known better I'm happy just to dance with you You can't do that

The Sounds Of India

Ravi Shankar

3/5

Sounds foreign to my Western ear due to the use of microtones (quartertones), or Shrutis (in India) Instruments: Tambura, tabla, sitar Raga - like a scale or mode in Western music This was way harder for me to keep a beat/rhythm to, and there is more improvisation in this album vs Western music

Live Through This

Hole

3/5

Alt rock

At Fillmore East

The Allman Brothers Band

3/5

The bluesss baby One of my moms favorite bands

Protection

Massive Attack

m b v

My Bloody Valentine

2/5

Alt rock/indie. Genre is known as Shoegaze. Extreme volume and heavy on guitar texture/distortions. My Bloody Valentine is thought to be the godfathers of Shoegaze. New you was good, psychedelic experience Wonder 2 was trippy

Oxygène

Jean-Michel Jarre

2/5

Ambient/New Age music A must that you listen with headphones - nothing else will do. I liked Pt. 5 enough to add it to my misc instrumental playlist. Overall it was okay, but it's not something I'd listen to very often

Adele

3/5

Beautiful voice, a lot of radio hits, but probably wouldn't listen to much on my own time.

Floodland

Sisters Of Mercy

3/5

English rock band I liked 1959 a lot - great piano This Corrosion was good too

Fire Of Love

The Gun Club

2/5

They're like punk rock and a bit of blues mixed in. Punk Blues Jeffrey Lee Pierce drops the n word in "For the Love of Ivy", but he may just be playing a character, hope he isn't actually racist.
