Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Aug 24 2022

+ Born in the USA (3 STARS) + Cover Me (3 STARS) + Darlington County (2 STARS)-- sounds like forced country. Reminds me of RDJ's "Man Like Me" + Working on the Highway (2 STARS) -- Tf is this Jerry Lee Lewis? Hot Patootie Bless My Soul + Downbound Train (2 STARS) -- I like the guitar and background, but his voice is obnoxious + I'm On Fire (2 STARS) -- Boring + No Surrender (3 STARS) -- I'm a sucker for nostalgia + Bobby Jean (2 STARS) -- Meh. Didn't sell it for me + I'm Goin' Down (1 STARS) -- Yuck. Very repetitive. + Glory Days (3 STARS) -- I think I knew this one. Decent chorus + Dancing in the Dark (5 STARS) -- a bop + My Hometown (2 STARS) -- Meant to be warm and fuzzy but too boring OVERALL: 2.5 STARS

Beauty And The Beat by The Go-Go's
Aug 25 2022

+ Our Lips Our Sealed (4 STARS) -- a classic + How Much More (3 STARS) -- really simple, but decent + Tonite (2.5 STARS) -- too simple and the backing vocals freak me out + Lust to Love (2 STARS) -- Meh + This Town (1 STAR) -- So boring + We've Got the Beat (3.5 STARS) -- At least some energy & catchy + Fading Fast (1 STAR) -- Boring. Sounds like every other song + Automatic (1 STAR) -- Boring and annoying annunciation + You Can't Walk in Your Sleep (3 STARS) -- Good beat + Skidmarks on My Heart (2 STARS) + Can't Stop the World (2 STARS) OVERALL: 2 STARS

Sea Change by Beck
Aug 26 2022

+ The Golden Age (4 STARS) + Paper Tiger (2 STARS) - This one weirds me out for some reason + Guess I'm Doing Fine (3 STARS) - Reminds me of "Let's Duet" from Walk Hard, but otherwise fine. + Lonesome Tears (2 STARS) + Lost Cause (3.5 STARS) - Not bad. Give me more catchier choruses/repetition, Beck! + End of the Day (2 STARS) + It's All In Your Head (3 STARS) + Round the Bend (1 STAR) - The orchestral background sounds like a drama scene in a soap opera. The vocals are too slow and don't match. + Already Dead (2 STARS) + Sunday Sun (3 STARS) - Sunday suuuuu-u-u-unn is catchy + Little One (2 STARS) - Uneventful + Side of the Road (2 STARS) OVERALL (2.5 STARS): So boring. There was nothing catchy in this which would be fine if the lyrics weren't pretty cliche and simple.

Kid A by Radiohead
Aug 29 2022

+ Everything is In the Right Place (3 STARS) -- Trippy + Kid A (1 STARS) -- What the fuck? + The National Anthem (1 STAR) -- What. and I cannot emphasize this enough. The fuck. + How to Disappear Completely (3 STARS) - Thankfully more normal + Treefingers (3 STARS) + Optimistic (4 STARS) + In Limbo (3 STARS) -- Too weird for me + Idiotesque (3 STARS) + Morning Bell (3 STARS) + Motion Picture Soundtrack (3 STARS) OVERALL (3 STARS): Weird as fuck. Not my cup of tea, but okay.

Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves
Aug 30 2022

+ Slow Burn (4 STARS) - Simple lyrics but good sound + Lonely Weekend (4 STARS) + Butterflies (4 STARS) + Oh, What a World (3 STARS) - too disney + Mother (3 STARS) + Love is a Wild Thing (4 STARS) + Space Cowboy (3 STARS) + Happy & Sad (4 STARS) + Velvet Elvis (4 STARS) + Wonder Woman (4 STARS) + High Horse (4 STARS) - simple lyrics but so dancey + Golden Hour (4 STARS) + Rainbow (5 STARS) OVERALL (4 STARS): Very simple, but sweet and catchy

L'Eau Rouge by The Young Gods
Aug 31 2022

Wow, I hated this.

Time Out Of Mind by Bob Dylan
Sep 02 2022

Easy listening bluesy vibe, but nothing stands out as exciting.

My Aim Is True by Elvis Costello
Sep 07 2022

Songs are all pretty similar but it's easy to listen to with some catchy songs.

Mask by Bauhaus
Sep 08 2022

This is the type of music I would expect to hear if I were being dismembered in someone's basement.

Blur by Blur
Sep 09 2022

Song 2 is superior to everything else on this odd album

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Sep 12 2022

Nothing completely stands out, but a good sound. Also bonus points for relevance.

Yeezus by Kanye West
Sep 23 2022
Songs Of Love And Hate by Leonard Cohen
Sep 30 2022

Every song is the same: a boring 5+ minute long story with Cohen singing the same 3 monotone notes.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Oct 04 2022
Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Oct 11 2022

Queen.
