Pyromania

Def Leppard

5/5

I was surprised for it to be this good! I thought it would be corny and although it feels a lot like ACDC it has a charm of it’s own

Chocolate Starfish And The Hot Dog Flavored Water

All Ratings

A Hard Day's Night

Beatles

3/5

I did not expect to like it, althought I hardly see myself going back to it unless i really feel like it. It has the old school lover boy feel to it but it's a bit corny sometimes. I do like some songs and the energy it transmits really takes you back to the time where that music was revolutionary and called the "devil's music" lol. the production is a bit annoying to listen to because you have the tracks split into both sides of the stereo, classic beatles fuckery

Step In The Arena

Gang Starr

3/5

Very old school vibe, i liked some beats and flows he had. I might keep listening to it until i dont. Rap is still not my thing

Out Of The Blue

Electric Light Orchestra

5/5

A musical experience, way ahead of its time and very pleasing to listen. I need happy music like this in my life

Bat Out Of Hell

Meat Loaf

3/5

First track was super emotional and i liked it a lot, but the rest of the album tired me and i lost interest

Songs From A Room

Leonard Cohen

2/5

This shit is too sad for me to listen rn

Seventeen Seconds

The Cure

5/5

Gloomy but still super cool, perfect for a cloudy day. Not a single weak song

Definitely Maybe

Oasis

2/5

A Love Supreme

John Coltrane

5/5

Fucking fantastic, a great listen all the way through

Bringing It All Back Home

Bob Dylan

4/5

Not bad, bob dylan is a good composer and its a specific vibe but idk if i will revisit it soon. With all due respect 4 stars mainly for mr tambourine man

Pyromania

Def Leppard

5/5

I was surprised for it to be this good! I thought it would be corny and although it feels a lot like ACDC it has a charm of it’s own

The Stranger

Billy Joel

5/5

Outstandingly beautiful. Every song was masterfully crafted, im glad I got to listen to this.

Chocolate Starfish And The Hot Dog Flavored Water

Limp Bizkit

1/5

The riffs are good and the guitarist is putting in WORK but the rapping is god awful. If there were any other vocals it would be a lot better but i guess it defined an era. One star for rolling tho KEEP ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN

Axis: Bold As Love

Jimi Hendrix

5/5

Amazing from beginning to end, a jazzy psychedelic experience everyone should appreciate

Every Picture Tells A Story

Rod Stewart

3/5

Did not finish because it's not my style, definitely has energy and it belongs to a different generation. I don't see myself going back to it anytime soon. There was 1 song that was pretty good but I felt very underwhelmed

Low-Life

New Order

4/5

This album sounds like the culmination of every 80’s cliches mixed up into something listenable. Pretty good up until Elegia and then i got bored, it started sounding repetitive. But i didnt know ive heard the first song before

Come Away With Me

Norah Jones

3/5

Very good music, I started skeptical but then I was charmed by her style and he soft composition. However, this song is directed to a specific public and I am not a middle aged sad woman reminiscing about life. I really appreciated her music however and I might come back to it when I am older, maybe…

Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)

The Kinks

4/5

honestly better than most of the beatles’ discography in one single album

Inspiration Information

Shuggie Otis

1/5

This album was boring as fuck and idk why is it on the list of 1001 albums you need to listen to before you die. There are other albums that deserve your listen way more than this, as a composer i guess this guy has some merit but jesus i couldn’t help but snore cuz it all sounded like elevator music or some shit you play at a bland ass PG-13 dinner party

Diamond Life

Sade

5/5

Sublime, smooth, soothing and interesting. Everything I wanted to hear as an introduction to r&b. Happy this came into my life :)

Tusk

Fleetwood Mac

4/5

very nice and soothing, some of the songs are masterfully crafted. An album you can put at any occasion

Gorillaz

5/5

no doubt about it, a childhood classic

Fever Ray

3/5

Not bad, interesting concept and some well executed songs but its takes a lot for me to be surprised by electronic music

Tago Mago

Can

4/5

This was super experimental just how I like it, last couple of songs fell off because they were super abstract but the rest was very well done and ambitious for the time! I loved the part where they sing in Japanese

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness

The Smashing Pumpkins

5/5

Tonight tonight’s left me in tears, thanks to this i have found a new favorite song for the rest of my life. This album is incredible full of emotion that fits well during a specific time of your life. I hope things get better and that one day I will look back at this album and remember all these confusing emotions as a part of the distant past. Things will get better with time, im sure of it. 5 stars

Superfly

Curtis Mayfield

5/5

If you put anything lower than 5 stars on this masterpiece something is wrong with you

2/5

Appetite For Destruction

Guns N' Roses

5/5

i grew up listening to some of the best songs in the album, a friend of mine told me “listen to the whole album its good” it was not until way later that i gave this album a full listen and I was blown away. Welcome to the jungle is not even the best song its mr brownstone. I also had a friend playing sweet child o mine every time he picked up the guitar at practice so it became a meme at this point but im happy to relive these memories. 5 stars

Boston

3/5

More than a feeling and smokin are great tracks, the others are alright but i dont feel the defining trait. There is definitely energy but did not age properly. At least i will always remember this album when Gerald is trolling in that south park episode

Off The Wall

Michael Jackson

3/5

I fw michael jackson’s best song but it’s still a weird vibe

Elvis Presley

4/5

Interesting listen, very powerful performance from a long time ago. It would be interesting to see it re recorded with today’s technology but he dead so fuck it we leave it like that.

Drunk

Thundercat

5/5

A sonic masterpiece, I was blessed to hear it for the first time when it came out and i am still surprised at the diversity this album offers. No one can do it like thundercat

The Velvet Underground & Nico

The Velvet Underground

4/5

I came in expecting it to be some over hyped hipster pretentious bs, and even if it was, I ended up being surprised that it was really enjoyable. The kind of music you play on a chill afternoon. I will keep this album in my library to impress Alt girls with low self steem. "Oh yea the banana album? Best album ever babe hands down, wyd rn tho?" EZ clap
