Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs
Derek & The Dominos
I was pretty damn bored through the first 6 songs, it was not hitting at all for me. Highkey i was dreading track 7 bc it was about 10 minutes long. That track smacked. Then i realized it was a blues-ish rock album and it made more sense. 2nd half of the album was damn good actually. Layla goes harder than everything obviously. Good album 6/10

Think for yourself is one of the most underrated beatles songs. Michelle and Girl are just all time love songs. In my life is one of lennons best written songs. If i needed someone - what a fucking song man. I truly believe every song on here could have been a single and would be a HIT.

That wasnt really the case but this was a good album. Watcha gonna do was a good song. Ketchy shuby was the best song on here by far. Good ending track too. Good vibes, legalize it! 6/10

Taylor Swift
This is one of the best pop albums of all time. It reminds me of driving to high school in my friends car. Good times. This record has an obnoxious amount of hits. Blank space, style, shake it off, bad blood, and wildest dreams were all HUGE. Welcome to New York is a fantastic opener. Clean is a chill ass closing track. I know places might be my favorite song on here right now. Taylor's best 9/10

Jazz Samba
Stan Getz
This is the first jazz album on here that I've actually enjoyed. The others seem to get too wild and get off track too much. This one doesn't get too crazy. Very chill music that is great to have in the background. I think I'm coming to the conclusion that Jazz music=background music. Chill 6/10

Come Find Yourself
Fun Lovin' Criminals
This album started off great. The cover reminded me of Run Dmc and I didnt like that album, but this was a pleasant surprise. The fun lovin criminal was an awesome opener. Passive/aggressive was a really good song. I cant get with that was another good song. Most of these songs are really good. Some mid ones bring it down. Good 6/10

The Score
Fugees
I must admit I have listened to this album once before and I loved it then. Nothing has changed since then. Lauryn Hill is the centerpiece of this record. Wyclef and Pras also kick major ass on here. Ready or not is a great song. Fu gee la is another banger. Killing me softly is an all timer. No woman no cry is awesome. I cant believe they didnt stick together after this album. Awesome 9/10

The Downward Spiral
Nine Inch Nails
This was an interesting album. This is truly an alt record. The chord progressions arent anything crazy but they make them fun/spooky enough to stay cool. Very sad vibes on this one. There are some good ass songs on here. I really like the instrumental tracks the most like a warm place and the downward spiral. Can't listen to Hurt without thinking of Johnny. Good album 6/10

I think this is the definition of a forgettable album. Not like it was bad or anything but there was literally nothing that stood out to me on this album. I couldnt even tell you a song and I literally just listened to it 2 minutes ago. Boringggg 3/10

Darkness on the Edge of Town
Bruce Springsteen
This was a pretty solid album. A lot of Bruce's songs sound very similar. I dont think any of them are bad though. None of these songs stood out to me in a special way except maybe racing in the street. I still thought this was an above average album, Bruce knows how to make a good song. 6/10

This album started off pretty interesting. Its lowkey an album you would play at a club - it definitely can get you moving. Nothing can stop us was a good song and made me wanna dance. I didnt think any other songs stood out but they were all decent. Album got old after nothing can stop us. Meh 4/10

Roots
Sepultura
This was an interesting one. Lotta screaming and moshing. Super heavy guitar work too. I actually thought this was pretty decent for what it was. The last song on here shouldn't have been included, it was just 10+ minutes of nonsense. 3/10 actually interesting though

David Bowie
I expect a lot from David Bowie. I know that this was his last album and he was dying while making this record, but I am just not a fan of this one. This doesnt even come close to Ziggy Stardust or some of his other albums. Girl loves me was a solid song. I liked the ending of the last track too. A lot of different noises and sounds on this record. He was a special artist. 3/10 he has much better albums.

Siamese Dream
The Smashing Pumpkins
I must admit I already am a smashing pumpkins fan. Billy corgan has such an iconic voice its hard not to like. Cherub rock might be my favorite song of theirs. Today is a great song - I forgot about that one. Great tracks up and down this record. Only reason I didn't give a 5 is because I thought the album really slowed down at the song Silverfuck. If it ends before that its probably a 5 for me. 8/10 killer album!!

The National
I've never heard of this band before, I thought they would have been from the 90s if I didn't know any better. They also have a song with Taylor Swift which is pretty cool. Idk why she would want to work with these guys unless she just enjoys the lead singers voice. That is the only thing that is interesting about this album. Even that gets old when he stays monotone for an entire run of songs. Boring af 3/10

This album was really good. Not like I didn't expect it, CCR is a fantastic band. Shocked how many well known songs are on here. I didnt even realize CCR was only a band for 5 years, that is insane!! Best song is who'll stop the rain. Kick ass 7/10

This was a straight congo album. Some of the tracks had some cool intros, but I got bored within 30 seconds of each track. All tracks are pretty much the same, just congos and maybe a cool beat for 20 seconds. Idk how people enjoy 40 straight minutes of this. Stale 1/10

Missy Elliott
Missy definitely has an iconic voice. Sounds a little like Lauryn Hill but grittier. I was expecting more out of this album. I feel like Missy Elliott is regarded as a pretty iconic female rapper but this music was mid as hell. Some of the features were good (Jay Z) but I just didnt vibe with the tunes. The songs just felt low quality. Not great 3/10

Imagine
John Lennon
I must say I have a bias towards the Beatles so I'm probably going to enjoy this more than a casual listener. Imagine (the song) is an all timer. Jealous guy is fantastic- top tier lennon song. Crippled inside and gimme some truth were great tunes. The two songs I enjoyed the most were Oh My Love and Oh Yoko! Oh yoko is an AWESOME ending track. Great album RIP John 8/10

A ton of hard rock on this album. Cult of personality is one of the best songs ever. I got a lil bored in the middle of this album but the song open letter brought me back in. Memories can't wait, broken hearts, and glamour boys is a fantastic 3 song stretch. This got way better by the end 6/10

Heaven 17
This was an interesting one. I liked the opening track, in fact i liked mostly all of these songs. But it just felt like something was off the whole time. I dont even know what it was, maybe the bass and synth in the background of every song, but it felt unsettling on most songs. It was pretty cool though I don't know many albums like this. Creative 6/10

Ash
This was a really good album, I was actually shocked. Some sweet sweet rock and roll on this one. First half of the album is very solid. Girl from mars was good. The strength of this record is the 2nd half starting with Oh yeah. What a great song. Lost in you is one of the best songs I've heard from any of these albums. Darkside lightside is a fantastic closer. Kick ass album 7/10

Californication
Red Hot Chili Peppers
I will say I have listened to this album before and enjoyed it, but it definitely hit a little harder on the 2nd listen. First four songs on the record are insanely good. Californication (song) might be their best. Fantasic closing track with road trippin'. Lil peep sampled this track because i was wondering how the hell i knew the beat. Good vibes 7/10

Aerosmith
Pretty good album! I always expect Aerosmith to be good and this was no exception. Kinda crazy this came out in 1989 it seems way older. The 4 track run from love in an elevator to the other side is awesome. Janies got a gun is one of their best. What it takes is a fantastic closer. 6/10

This was awesome. The perfect amount of "weirdness" in this album. I literally cant even name a song on this record I was so lost in it. There is some kick ass rockin on this album too. I dont think there was a subpar song on here. If this was a few songs shorter it might be a 5. Great 7/10
