Jan 04 2023

Decent album. I listened through it 1.5 times. Heavier songs like N.Y. I really enjoyed, but there were other tracks that felt like early Coldplay - which is fine, but it did feel a little disjointed. Overall 3/5.

...And Justice For All by Metallica
Jan 05 2023

This was a struggle to get through for me. Maybe it's because I was listening during work, but it kept throwing me out of concentration. I understand and can respect that this is an iconic album, but for me, I will not be revisiting it any time soon.

Heroes by David Bowie
Jan 06 2023

Top tier album. The title track of course is amazing, but love both the music and cinematic symbiosis that plays through - especially to end the album.

System Of A Down by System Of A Down
Jan 09 2023

When I first learned drums, I would play a lot of System Of A Down. While nothing they did was groundbreaking, they never failed to put together some unique-sounding music. While I don't feel like their self-titled is as iconic as Toxicity, you can hear the early stages of where their sound evolved. Decent album. Not the type of genre I really listen to anymore but enjoyed it enough.

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Jan 10 2023

Classic. Nothing more to say.

Jan 12 2023

Really enjoyed this album. Lots of early experimentation with studio production elements with phasing, delay, and of course synthesizers. Didn't expect this from a band like The Byrds. Bonus tracks are definitely them just playing around in the studio, but genuinely appreciated them including it as part of the album as those sounds play such a large role in modern music production.

Pearl by Janis Joplin

Muy bien

Jan 19 2023

It's Jamiroquai, c'mon. But really, enjoyed the album. Never really listened all that deeply to a Jamiroquai album before and only knew of the popular songs. Good music to work to, not overly stimulating but had enough musicianship to keep things interesting.

Nixon by Lambchop
Jan 20 2023

It was okay. There were some songs I like better than others. Wasn't a fan of the weird squeaky falsetto vocals at times.

Hypnotised by The Undertones
Jan 25 2023

Fun album early punk-era album.

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Jan 26 2023

Just a band on the run.

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
Jan 30 2023

A classic and staple of influential Jazz. A display of impressive musicianship where each song is more dynamic than the next.

Nothing's Shocking by Jane's Addiction
Feb 15 2023

Personally wasn't a huge fan, though I know there are a lot of uncles out there that love this album.

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Feb 16 2023

Really enjoyed this one. As someone who honestly has not listened to much Amy Winehouse aside from the hits, I was pretty impressed with the musicianship throughout the album. Solid listen and would revisit it again.
