Urban Hymns by The Verve
Aug 19 2022

Like Oasis, early 90s alt rock/pop sound. One notch psychedelic, apparently this is part of Shoegaze which is a genre I'm unfamiliar with. Both acustic guitar and electric. Single male vocalist. Maybe 5 or 6 out of 10, not unpleasant to continue listening to.

Be by Common
Aug 22 2022

A bit gospel. Lyric rhyming quality rap. Pop/mainstream, but decent. On the better side of rap for me.

Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine
Aug 23 2022

Raw. Energy. Spoken/Rap lyrics. Evolving songs (chords etc change as song goes on, elaborates), which isn't my favourite. Can be meandering. Has some classics, like Killing in the Name of and some songs I'd like to hear again.

Face to Face by The Kinks
Aug 24 2022

Some Monkeys - early Beetles like Brit pop. Some songs a bit jovial and childish, some Indian-like. A few actual decent songs, like Sunny Afternoon.

Our Aim Is To Satisfy by Red Snapper
Aug 31 2022

Not really my genre, but novel. Fine for background listening while working, somewhat chill with a 90s dance music feel.

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Sep 05 2022

Upbeat for Smith, or at least energetic tunes.

Heavy Weather by Weather Report
Sep 07 2022

Jazz with not my favourite instruments. Odd era.

Synchronicity by The Police
Sep 13 2022

A few classics. A bit raw, not as smooth as some of their other albums.

Unhalfbricking by Fairport Convention
Sep 15 2022

Folk rock, never folky enough to scratch that itch for me, nor rocky enough for the other. Have not listened to the whole album, but they could potentially have a good hybrid in there of the two, I just have not yet heard it.

Dr. Octagonecologyst by Dr. Octagon
Oct 14 2022

Interesting. Some plunderphonics, trippy slow backtracks. Rap is some random words, some silliness (doodoo), sexual stuff.

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Oct 18 2022

Decent, funky
