5/5
album makes me feel like I'm a victorian girl locked in a dungeon about to die of the plague but it's cool cause I'm chillin though
LTJ Bukem · 6 likes
4/5
FYI: There is a very similar album on streaming also by LTJ with the same name. Doesn't help that this site uses the wrong cover art. The original compilation is much much better in my opinion.
With that out of the way, this is definitely one of my favorite dnb releases of all time. Its atmospheric, groovy, and danceable all in one. If you like the peshay studio set you'll like this and vice versa.

All Ratings
Prince
3/5
Weird. Cool songs but not for me.
Big Brother & The Holding Company
4/5
Awesome guitar!! Janis is a good vocalist. Insane for 68. Blackface :(
R.E.M.
4/5
Pretty groovy. I don't listen to a lot if 80s alt rock so cool.
Elliott Smith
4/5
You good man?
Miriam Makeba
3/5
Why is this on the list. It's not bad though.
The Prodigy
5/5
Love this album its so awesome
Rush
4/5
Cheesy but who cares. Vocalist is eh. Awesome synths. I think this remaster is pretty bad. YYZ is great.
Nick Drake
4/5
Really cool. Love the chamber influences. Folk with a flute is just cheating. Should probably listen to discography.
Isaac Hayes
4/5
Walk on by is just beautiful. I really like the monologue on phoenix but it's too long. Overall just smooth as hell.
Sleater-Kinney
3/5
I'm not an indie rock person unfortunately. Cool songs just not my thing really. Bonus points for lesbiabs :)
Jane's Addiction
3/5
Cover sucks complete ass. Music is pretty good, reminds me of primus. Doesn't have a lot of personality though? I like the guitar tone and overall vibe though.
New Order
3/5
New order definitely make music but they are also completely uninteresting.
The Who
4/5
I'm nostalgic for this album bc my dad used to always play it and the who were his favorite. The good parts are really really good but there doesn't need to be so many instrumental sections. Also the ending is weird.
Underworld
4/5
First two tracks go insane. I like this a lot more than dubno. Less focus on the vocals make this great.
Sly & The Family Stone
4/5
Really cool. That's it it's just really cool.
Bruce Springsteen
4/5
I liked this way more than I thought I would. Overall I wish it was less poppy, because the harder moments are really good. Adam raised a Cain is pretty crazy.
Gillian Welch
3/5
It's cool. The guitar playing is really good.
Talking Heads
4/5
just a solid talking heads album. they rarely miss.
Todd Rundgren
4/5
Super awesome. I wish it was a single album so bad. There's so many good songs though.
Leonard Cohen
4/5
Neat
Quicksilver Messenger Service
2/5
Its alright. Lots of noodling. Not sure why it's on the list.
The Cramps
3/5
I'm really picky with punk and this doesn't really do it for me. There's some cool songs though.
The White Stripes
4/5
It's cool
Bob Dylan
4/5
Silly little album
Jacques Brel
3/5
Amsterdam is pretty great but I don't speak French so uhhhhhhhh
David Bowie
5/5
David bowie is good???? Literally amazing album
Buddy Holly & The Crickets
4/5
Really solid for the time. Buddy holly is a really great vocalist. Get a little samey but it's the 50s so whatever.
Happy Mondays
4/5
I thought baggy was supposed to be bad what the heck man. You're twisting my melon man.
Bee Gees
2/5
I want to like this more but it's boring :(
The Louvin Brothers
2/5
It's pretty cool for the time but a bit long, which is weird for a 35 minute album. If it was like 10 min shorter I would like it better tbh. Maybe keep it off the list.
Funkadelic
4/5
This album is super awesome
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
4/5
This website keeps giving me folk and I'm completely fine with that
Curtis Mayfield
5/5
Man. Just like. Its so good. Curtis's voice just scratches the right parts of my brian while the smoothest instrumentals play with him. Amazing.
Leonard Cohen
4/5
It's leonard cohen. I wish I could pay attention to the lyrics more.
Green Day
4/5
It's a fun pop punk album. The only real masterpiece i think is basket case, but this is really good as far as pop punk goes.
The Velvet Underground
4/5
Wacky album. I like it more than the debut. Sister Ray is a monster as is known.
Maxwell
4/5
So extremely awesome. A bit too long but man. Smooth.
R.E.M.
4/5
Doesn't sound like the cover. Pretty good though. 80s rem>>>
Echo And The Bunnymen
4/5
Penguin Cafe Orchestra
4/5
Cute little album
Massive Attack
3/5
Not really for me. Unfinished sympathy is a highlight.
Radiohead
4/5
Third time listening to radiohead. Turns out they're way better when they're not doing pretentious psuedo-experimental stuff.
MGMT
4/5
great mix of psychedelic synths and indie sleaze. kids will live in my head rent free.
Yes
4/5
Really nice. Starship trooper is a banger.
Violent Femmes
4/5
Cute little album. Such a vibe. Sad they never rlly made anything else this good.
X-Ray Spex
4/5
silly punk album. surprised it isn't all that talked about with other first wave punk. better than early ramones or sex pistols. and funny saxophone.
The Avalanches
5/5
This album is so amazing. I could probably listen to it forever.
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
4/5
A variety pack of awesome late 70s music. Great all around, makes me want to check out more costello even if he's grossly over represented on this list
Circle Jerks
4/5
Silly little hxc album. Really good.
Metallica
4/5
Not as good as their classic albums, but still really solid.
Miles Davis
5/5
I mean. Yeah. It's good. It's miles davis.
Steely Dan
4/5
Perfect for when you are insanely tired after a big day and just want to listen to music brain off
Various Artists
4/5
CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!@!!
The Beach Boys
4/5
Honestly I'm not the hugest fan of post-smile beach boys. There's a lot of great songs here and the cover art is gorgeous but it just feels off. Surfs up and disney girls are two of the bands best.
Killing Joke
4/5
I'm picky with post punk but this falls on the side of not boring so awesome yay. Wasn't expecting the synths but they are very welcome.
The Soft Boys
4/5
Some rad post punk with 60s influence. Nice 👍
Cyndi Lauper
4/5
Cheesy 80s pop for the win
The Modern Lovers
4/5
Proto-strokescore
Incredible Bongo Band
4/5
Why is this as good as it is.
5/5
One of the best prog albums of all time. Never fails to impress me.
Suicide
4/5
An interesting listen. It gets a little over the top at moments but there's a lot of really cool sounds here.
Miles Davis
4/5
This is really a one of a kind album that there really isn't anything else like. It's quite beautiful.
Carole King
4/5
Super cute album. 70s pop rock is always my vibe.
The Kinks
4/5
it's good but it's still beatlesy which makes it fairly boring
Nirvana
4/5
just great. There's a lot of great songs other than the popular ones.
Ghostface Killah
4/5
the last truly great wu tang album along with cuban linx 2. Basically every song here is a banger, and with some great features too. the champ might be one of the greatest rap songs ever.
Tangerine Dream
3/5
eh. there's both better berlin school/prog electronic and straight up better tangerine dream albums.
Radiohead
4/5
its okay. I like creep
The Replacements
4/5
Great. Jumps around a lot but I always love the sound of early alt rock
Yes
5/5
yeah sure it might be flaunty and over technical and wayyy too artsy at times but it has roundabout.
Keith Jarrett
5/5
this album and the story behind it are absolutely insane. Keith how
Janet Jackson
4/5
New jack swing and post industrial is not a combination I thought was even possible but man. Janet is awesome
Fela Kuti
5/5
Not just an amazing album but a very culturally significant one. Fela kuti was an insane person. music to get thrown out of a window to.
Michael Jackson
5/5
It's thriller. like come on. how can someone not like it. just like. thriller. if you don't like it how. like it's thriller how do you not like thriller. everyone likes thriller. I like thriller. good album.
Wu-Tang Clan
4/5
Sonic Youth
4/5
rock music!!!! idk why sonic youth doesn't really click with me but still good.
Miles Davis
4/5
This album is awesome but its too wacky for me to like it as much as other davis releases. I still respect it though
Metallica
3/5
DARKNESS. IMPRISONING ME. ALL THAT I SEE. ABSOLUTE HORROR.
Other than One this didn't hold up as well as i remembered. I really like Metallica's proggier side but idk about this one. Jason isn't as good as Cliff (RIP) and Lars's lackluster drums stick out like a sore thumb. It's still solid though, just didn't amaze me now as much as it did in freshman year of high school.
The Flaming Lips
4/5
music kinda forgettable but while youre actually listening to it its incredible
Marvin Gaye
4/5
marvin gaye is responsible for millions of people
The Cure
4/5
favorite cure album so far. the drums are so crispy. and the bass omg. a forest is top.
Gang Of Four
4/5
now this is the kind of post punk I like. pretty amazing album overall, though I think it barelyyyy misses the 5 star mark from me this time.
Led Zeppelin
3/5
aaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA a
Doesn't hold up as well as I remember. Zep definitely fixed their folkier sound with the next album. Also is it just me or is immigrant song like so much lamer than if should be.
The Stone Roses
4/5
Lot of good classic songs here. one of those albums where you can clearly hear the influence it had with basically every 90s alt rock album.
Stevie Wonder
5/5
I didn't have high expectations, I'm usually not a fan of "white albums" a la the beatles but woah, this is something else. All killer no filer for 2 hours straight how did the man do it.
Beatles
3/5
i had some hateful review with no rating when i hadnt even heard the album. weird.
anyway, ive never been much for this style of album, i usually prefer something tight and clean. theres some great tunes (sexy sadie, helter skelter, while my guitar gently weeps) but im just gonna go back to those rather than this whole bloated mess.
Iron Maiden
4/5
HELL YEAHHHHHHH!!!!!!
THIS IS REAL METALL NONE OF THAT BABY STUFF
Solid album it's really good.
Daft Punk
4/5
I love daft punk. but I'm guessing many people are gonna hate this album on the first listen. It's very repetitive and gritty, and sounds nothing like the poppy Discovery. I honestly don't know how this became mainstream. I only got into this after getting into more chicago house and techno music. Definitely a grower.
Ian Dury
4/5
Sonic Youth
4/5
Teen age riot is the highlight of this album and just a great song. the rest is pretty rad too.
Echo And The Bunnymen
4/5
I wasn't a huge fan of their earlier album crocodiles which I got generated previously, but after listening to the killing moon like 20 times I figured I should give this one a go. glad I did. didnt know orchestral goth could be a thing.
Nas
4/5
I'm gonna be real I have no idea what he's saying but solid rap record 👍
Oasis
4/5
Just a pretty sweet alt rock album. Reminds me a lot of the other stuff on creation at the time, just poppier.
Cocteau Twins
5/5
Pure bliss. Perfects the genre of dream pop in every way.
Dead Kennedys
4/5
essential hardcore punk that's as silly as possible. Took a while to grow on me but probably one of my favorite punk records nowadays.
The Cure
4/5
A great mix of energetic post punk and slower 80s dream pop. The only drawback is I feel the 80s digital reverb kinda drags it down at points but at the same time I couldn't imagine the album without it.
Minutemen
4/5
wacky.
The Dave Brubeck Quartet
4/5
just some classic cool jazz. props to Dave for using weird time signatures. you already know the highlight.
Jefferson Airplane
4/5
everyone knows the singles but the rest of the album is surprisingly different. still really solid.
Belle & Sebastian
4/5
This album is super cute. not much more to say about it.
Ramones
4/5
The original punk. It still holds up really well. how did they write something as good as blitzkrieg bop as their first song.
GZA
4/5
classic hip hop. you just can't really go wrong with this album. shadowboxin is insane. ghostfaces verse on 4th chamber is amazing
Brian Eno
4/5
Solid eno album. Most of this is just great eno magic, but man by this river is one of his best songs, possibly even one of the best pop songs of all time.
Side note, insane collaborations on this thing, check them out.
Sly & The Family Stone
4/5
A bit more of a classic funk take from Sly and the family before their experimental magnum opus "there's a riot goin on". This one's extremely consistent and just really good. Funky.
Beastie Boys
4/5
good raps, really good production, all with an insane amount of sampling. nice
Lightning Bolt
3/5
you know when the rating is low you have a great album on your hands. pretty fun noise rock album, albeit gets a little boring somehow. still a fun listen.
Michael Jackson
4/5
michael jackson and classic disco. amazing combination.
The Cars
3/5
some classic new wave. Just what I needed is one of my favorite songs, but the rest falls a little flat. still solid
Radiohead
4/5
it's radiohead
Sonic Youth
4/5
favorite sonic youth album I've heard so far. I think I prefer their alt rockier side to their weird experimental stuff.
The United States Of America
4/5
wow, this one really impressed me. I don't really get the people saying it's weird. it's a bit experimental but the sounds are still poppy, it sounds a lot like Jefferson airplane. the singer is really good.
Beatles
4/5
never thought i would be a "i like the beatles but only in mono" kind of guy but here i am. doesnt hit the same in stereo.
Taylor Swift
4/5
Highlights are good but the rest blends a bit together. still pretty great, Taylor's voice is amazing and the production is amazingly clean. strange I got this the same day 1989tv got announced.
Tears For Fears
4/5
just solid 80s pop music.
Sigur Rós
5/5
wow, this is one of those albums where every track just floors me. can't listen to it all the time, it's one of those ones where you gotta be in the right mood to properly experience it. but when it hits, man there's nothing better.
Arcade Fire
4/5
I had listened to this album a few times before and didnt really get the hype, but this inspired me to listen again. And it clicked pretty hard. Great album, tunnels will be stuck in my head for a while
Ride
4/5
Probably the most underrated of the "holy trinity" of shoegaze albums. I'm surprised it doesn't get as much love as loveless or souvlaki, as i think it holds up to those two albums. seagull is a noise pop masterpiece, and vapor trail is a borderline perfect pop song. good ass album
Röyksopp
4/5
just some really solid downtempo. a lot of downtempo doesn't properly nail the vibe(tm), but this one does. props.
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
4/5
The title track is a zany Prog masterpiece which is expected from elp. the b side is a bit weirder with a few rock and roll tracks thrown in. still an underrated Prog record in my eyes.
Pavement
4/5
just a really fun album. Stephen malkmus with his almost lazy vocals (in a good way) over poppy but still distorted guitars. love it.
DJ Shadow
5/5
I originally listened to this album for a school project. I had looked at a list of electronic music artists and picked dj shadow because the name sounded funny. After writing about the track "changeling", I decided to listen to the rest of the album and fell in love with it. mastapiece.
Television
4/5
I was gonna write about how I thought this album was cool but I didn't really care about it, but upon relistening it totally clicked. May move up to a 5 but 4 for now. man that title track hits every time.
Blondie
4/5
Just great punky new wave. I mainly like it for the singles, but the rest is good too.
Portishead
3/5
Third is a weird album. I don't think there's much debating that. but especially coming from the previous catalogue of portishead. This really seems like am album I'd be all over but I only have fallen in love with the rip and machine gun. maybe in time I'll appreciate this album more but for now I'll just keep forgetting about it
Charles Mingus
5/5
Probably like the best jazz album of all time. this is a national accomplishment. the way it all flawlessly seems together is amazing. listen to this
Black Sabbath
3/5
title track is classic but for the rest I think they've done better
Iggy Pop
4/5
Personally I prefer the idiot but man this is such an insane classic. how often does an older artist come back and male two back to back bangers.
Dinosaur Jr.
4/5
great followup to you're living all over me which is one of my favorite albums of all time. freak scene is an indie classic. just can't go wrong with it.
The Jesus And Mary Chain
3/5
Maybe need to relisten to this one but it was solid but not really that great outside of just like honey, which I think is still a tad overrated. I still heavily respect what it is especially for the time period.
Pink Floyd
5/5
I first listened to this album early in highschool when I had a big progressive rock phase. I had liked a lot of the more technical Prog like yes and king crimson so I decided to give this one a go. found it boring. I spontaneously decided to relisten to it again last year. and then I listened again. and again. and then listened to most of pink floyds discography. it feels kind of basic but this album is just so good.
Joy Division
4/5
For a while I really thought this album was carried by disorder (which it still kind of is), but actually the rest of the album is really cool. still kind of mad at it for making me think all post punk was sad goth stuff
Pere Ubu
4/5
I LOVE POST PUNK!!!@ this is a good album, a bit too weird for me but I like the title track and a few others. very niceee
3/5
There's some cool songs (yes I like a day in the life) but the whole in between of the album is pure nothing. could be like 4 or 5 songs tbh.
Soft Machine
4/5
Maybe im a bit biased from other prog rock but i wish this was a bit more technical. The first track threw me off originally but as another reviewer recommended on second listening i put it off until last and i enjoyed this a bit better. Still pretty nice though.
Herbie Hancock
4/5
jazz funk is weird. when i want to listen to jazz it gets excluded. when I want to listen to funk it also gets excluded. but this album I feel actually sits comfortably in both. it's funky. it's jazzy. its wacky and zany. epic
Air
4/5
man i put this one off for too long. beautiful mix of downtempo, stereolabby indietronica, and old space age pop and easy listening. good stuff.
My Bloody Valentine
4/5
Can
5/5
An absolutely psychedelic experience. its really hard to explain how this album makes me feel. it makes me feel warm and gooey and sticky while also managing to be a bit silly at times. insane vibes. maybe skip the second half "bonus tracks" on the first listen.
the musical equivalent of cottonmouth
The Clash
4/5
A bit of a mess of an album, like a lot of class albums it could be cut down a lot. first two sides and train in vain is enough honestly. that being said still pretty solid all around. I need more dark reggae post punk like the title track and guns of brixton
Michael Jackson
3/5
Bad is weird. while it's not bad (even though it is), it really doesn't feel all that good either. it really doesn't shine very well in comparison to thriller, or even off the wall. smooth criminal is obviously the highlight and only song I'd call thriller-tier. Bad (song) actually isn't that bad (even though it also is). The rest is memorable (dirty diana, speed demon, man in the mirror) but it's just like. sure. this exists. I'd rather just listen to thriller. still not bad (even though it is?) I'd see why someone would call this bad. though I do also not see how you wouldn't call it bad. where am i
The Damned
4/5
Wow, nice one. great mix of post punk and classic punk rock, I love albums that cross the bridge between the two like this one does.
Dinosaur Jr.
5/5
Wow, just immediately floors me every time. everything on this record is insane from minute one, going from gorgeous proto-shoegaze to hardcore punk (that drumming!). only down spot is poledo, but ive come to like it over time. love this album.
CHIC
4/5
Just a good old funky time. If someone were to ask me specifically for a disco album I'd send this one and the next one, though I think good times is a little better. still can't go wrong with nile rodgers on guitar.
4/5
Devo is probably the best band name of all time. this album is really cool, I don't get some of the tracks like jocko homo yet, but there's also great post punk/nee wave classics like uncontrollable urge and gut feeling.
Spiritualized
4/5
as of current this album hasn't fully clicked but i still highly highly respect it. it's a little long for my taste, but it's clear a huge amount of effort went into this thing. both the first and last tracks are completely flooring. looking forward to coming back to this when I'm in the mood for it
Steely Dan
4/5
Solid Dan as always. not one of my favorites as I'm usually more a fan of the albums that have memorable songs on them but still a classic. how they got away with that f word though will still puzzle me forever
Nick Drake
4/5
Kendrick Lamar
4/5
Talking Heads
4/5
This one was a grower for sure. not the immediate funk of remain in light, but has become my second favorite from them. I zimbra, life during wartime, and cities are just amazing avant garde dance tunes. I've head them referred to as mutant disco and I couldn't agree more.
4/5
it's oasis. very decently good alt rock. wonderwall and champagne supernova are really good though.
The Smashing Pumpkins
4/5
it's some pretty fine grungegaze. nothing crazy but I like a few tracks.
John Coltrane
5/5
the jazz album to kill all jazz albums. Obviously not the craziest jazz album for the time, but definitely the best bridge of earlier hard bop/post bop and later avant garde jazz. an album for both casual listeners and nerds. not to mention its also just really good. amazing reoccurring theme. probably my favorite jazz album of all time.
LTJ Bukem
4/5
FYI: There is a very similar album on streaming also by LTJ with the same name. Doesn't help that this site uses the wrong cover art. The original compilation is much much better in my opinion.
With that out of the way, this is definitely one of my favorite dnb releases of all time. Its atmospheric, groovy, and danceable all in one. If you like the peshay studio set you'll like this and vice versa.
The Notorious B.I.G.
5/5
a hip hop album hasn't floored me this much in so long. its 5 just for gimme the loot
Led Zeppelin
3/5
Fleetwood Mac
4/5
basically the sound of the 70s. tons of hits on this. not my favorite, but I can't deny it's power.
The Beach Boys
4/5
pretty solid beach boys album, the reviews are right that this one feels whiter though lol. not sure why it's loved over all summer long or summer days, but it's still brian wilson. help me Ronda outro is funny
Neu!
5/5
After a rough mishap with the recording of neu 2's b side, neu finally apply everything I feel like they worked out on the two records. Psychedelia, proto punk, and even ambient are wonderfully tied together by Dinger's signature drumming. It's pretty amazing how good this turned out.
Led Zeppelin
4/5
As much as the zoomed in me wants to make fun of this, it's just too much of a classic. Yeah it's quintessential dad rock, but it goes crazy.
Cocteau Twins
5/5
album makes me feel like I'm a victorian girl locked in a dungeon about to die of the plague but it's cool cause I'm chillin though
Coldplay
4/5
falls off after a while but really solid, the singles are pretty great
Black Flag
4/5
just a hardcore classic. I think this band would go on to do better things (though admittedly also much much worse things) you just can't go wrong with this one. tons of fun.
Nirvana
4/5
This album hasn't totally clicked for me yet unlike the prior one, but I still respect it and it's definitely really really good.
Led Zeppelin
3/5
Yet more boomer blues rock
Jean-Michel Jarre
5/5
Just a blissful groovy moogy early electronic album, and that's my favorite. Such a jam.
Method Man
4/5
Solid first solo outing from wu tang. Bring the pain is an alltimer. tbh I like the mixing.
Portishead
5/5
Beth gibbons' voice gives me gender envy.
Germs
4/5
Great early hardcore. highly recommend.
Raekwon
4/5
Call me insane but I didn't get this one... love most of wu tangs golden era stuff but this one didn't click.
update: I love it
Pixies
4/5
Classic alt/indie. all the songs are super catchy, even pretty noisy. just classic
Dire Straits
3/5
cool and funky. sultans of swing is always amazing but there's a few others that stuck with me.
Mudhoney
3/5
really good grunge before it became a huge thing.
Donald Fagen
3/5
both some of the best and worst steely dan songs?
Slipknot
4/5
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Joni Mitchell
5/5
it's beautiful, it's catchy, it's depressing, it's endlessly replayable. Should be higher regarded as one of the best albums of all time.
Nine Inch Nails
4/5
I've listened to a lot of metal and punk but this is still thr heaviest album I've ever heard
Fugazi
4/5
Love
3/5
I really like the first track but the rest is a little boring
The Strokes
5/5
Just bangers on end
Soundgarden
3/5
Just some pretty classic grunge. I think a bit too long but lots of classics.
Steely Dan
4/5
Honestly just the singles are the highlights but they're some pretty amazing highlights
Stan Getz
3/5
never really thought of bossa Nova + cool jazz. girl from ipanema is essential.
Metallica
4/5
kinda fell off since I stopped being in 9th grade. I'll defend metallica their get made fun of a little much. not the members themselves though keep making fun of them.
Roni Size
3/5
it's a pretty nice little package. brown paper bag is top tier dnb, and watching these songs played live is pretty great. drags on a bit cause it's a 90s edm album.
Aphex Twin
5/5
bangers. on bangers. on bangers. peak edm. love it.
My Bloody Valentine
5/5
I'm gonna be a little picky and say that the tracklisting for the A side feels weird to me. but otherwise yeah peak.
Todd Rundgren
4/5
Faust
3/5
Franz Ferdinand
4/5
The Velvet Underground
4/5
as much as I like this album it's incredibly overrated. the poppy bits are pretty great but I don't care for most of the garagey rock (besides heroin and venus in furs). still pretty great, but I'd recommend the self titled album over this any day
Milton Nascimento
4/5
Black Sabbath
5/5
Brian Eno
3/5
little disappointed? I love some of the tracks (the title track especially) but a lot of this is boring and annoying.
Beatles
3/5
you know i went into this one expecting it to be another fairly okay beatles album and the surprised me by delivering a fairly okay album
Kanye West
3/5
Iggy Pop
5/5

Lou Reed

Radiohead
4/5
Scott Walker
4/5
Orbital
4/5
Bob Dylan
4/5
I feel like bob hasn't made the most consistent albums, but this one is tight. Just banger after banger of some of the most depressing and lonely folk ever. huge album.
Jimi Hendrix
4/5
Just some great fuzz and solos. i wish the version differences were more clear. make sure to at least listen to a version including the singles.
The KLF
3/5
I love the klf but this is not the album tk listen to. listen to chill out or solid state logik 1 and 2
Steely Dan
4/5
steely dan
Meat Puppets
3/5
it's a solid little psych-alt-cowboy fusion
Brian Eno
5/5
The Prodigy

WOOOOOOOOOOO
Pavement
3/5
Pixies

The Flaming Lips
4/5
Pink Floyd
5/5
Holy shit man this album really made me understand floyd. This thing is just pure bliss front to back. One of those few albums that just radiates *goodness*. Beautiful.
Snoop Dogg
4/5
Really slick g funk album. what happened to him after this man.
Lauryn Hill
3/5
honestly felt a bit overhyped? I liked the middle-end part more than the fan favorites at the beginning also. I think the message is really good, I just find it a little boring.
Boston
4/5
goes hard
Radiohead
4/5
Surprised this one is considered one of their less great albums, I do this it's a little bloated but honestly I enjoyed it all the same. I love when radiohead are at their most indie.
Beatles
4/5
honestly the only beatles album I really get the hype for. this one is pretty masterfully done, if only they did more like this.
Funkadelic
4/5
what a crazy album. I'm a little contrarian on this one as a pfunk fan though, I think the live version of the title track from one nation clears this version. not that this version is bad, it's still amazing, along with the classic can you get to that. good pick.
Stevie Wonder
4/5
honestly I think I spoiled myself by hearing songs in the key of life first, that album is so amazing its hard to listen to stevies other music. this is for sure very good though.
N.W.A.
2/5
I mean... what? this album has two insanely good songs, two pretty good songs and a lot of mid to excruciatingly painful songs. I have no idea how this happened with such a talented lineup. You're best off just listening to the singles and ignoring the rest of the album. Try to listen to 8 ball remix without crying or laughing.
Frank Zappa
4/5
he went jazz mode
Bob Dylan
4/5
throb dylan gives us a mix of some great tunes. I think there's a few misses, but the hits hit. the inventor of diss tracks.
The Go-Betweens
4/5
one of the cutest albums of all time
The Cure
4/5
honestly I think it might be one of the more overrated cure records but there's nothing else that sounds as pained as this album. this album sounds like they had robert smith doing the vocals while in one of those medieval torture devices that stretches you out while a really short guy gets commanded to turn the crank.
Jeff Buckley
5/5
Jesus man this album is so hauntingly beautiful. every song is just so perfect in its own way. everyone should listen to this.
Joy Division
4/5
Definitely a grower, the b side is so amazing. it's weird as hell but there's so much pain coming from this album. hurts to listen to in a good way. rip.
The Velvet Underground
5/5
Such a beautiful album. Thank you Lou Reed for writing Candy Says. 🏳️⚧️
David Bowie
3/5
Still a good bowie album, but it's a mix of "heroes and some other songs" and "low but again". heroes is pretty insane though.
Joni Mitchell
4/5
Double joni! this one's good just it's not what I expect from joni? I prefer her more simpler works, but this one's still good.
Siouxsie And The Banshees
4/5
just in time for Halloween. just a really sick album, siouxsie has an amazing voice and she really showcases it here. just mind the casual racism
Radiohead
4/5
Certainly overrated but I get why people like it so much. It really doesn't have as much depth as other radiohead albums, all of the songs are very one sided. still good, just I will always make fun of it whenever I can. poser electronic music they wanna be aphex twin sooooo bad.
Magazine

BY BOTH SIIIIIIIIIDES
Minor Threat
3/5
classic hardcore. I like their earlier stuff better though
808 State
3/5
solid house album. pacific state is pretty amazing.
Leftfield
3/5
yet another perfectly solid house album. I like the downtempo and tribal things it throw in but it's still just kind of early uk house.

Some solid big beat. id honestly put on some prodigy over this but its not bad.
The Smiths
4/5
Its got a lot of classic songs just I dont really feel like it works that well as an album? ill keep listening to the singles on their own probably.
3/5
Its good, great even, but i just dont get it that much. i feel like his voice is much better on other albums and a lot of the songs feel kinda samey. starman a classic ofc though.
Pink Floyd
3/5
what happened here man. theres a lot of great motifs and song parts but the whole thing is just kind of a mess. why is roger waters doing an american accent the whole time. why is bring the boys back home even included its so bad. i cant say i didnt like it, but im gonna go back to listening to their previous 4 albums on loop.
David Bowie
4/5
cocaine be damned my boy can funk it up
Brian Eno
4/5

Kanye West
3/5
grew off me a lot. love the production but kanye is just kind of an ass rapper here.

Justice

split between fantastic and a little boring
Public Image Ltd.
4/5
one of the hardest albums of all time. john lydon reborn. bass player whos never played before. records in a metal box so you fuck them up trying to get them out only to hear the worst cover of swan lake youve ever heard. amazing.
Kendrick Lamar
4/5
uhhhhhh its been a really long time since i last heard this but i think it was pretty good. i like the one where he says please dont kill my wife.
Boards of Canada
5/5
this makes me so nostalgic. reminds me of the time my father used to beat me to death with a hammer while sesame street played.
Jimi Hendrix
4/5
I like it but not as much as either of his other albums
