Rage Against The Machine
Rage Against The Machine
although the riffs are similar, they have enough character and are individually iconic to not feel rote. lyrics are less flowery than my favorite songwriters, but that’s the point- the lyrics are blunt, hard hitting, and shouting uncomfortable truths from the cafeteria table. iconic record

Time Out Of Mind
Bob Dylan
It was good, for sure! Not exactly my cup of tea- felt repetitive, as can be the nature of blues without good solos. Dylan still has some of his lyrical mastery from his earlier days, but he seems to have shed some of his penchant for elegant storytelling and poignant poetry along the way, to me.

Tommy
The Who
Didn’t love it! Not my jam, at least not today. Will probably revisit one day as I know it’s an important record (all of these are), but the mix was too jarringly bad to me.

yeah it was alright, not new wavey enough to be a great new wave record to me and not anything else in a way I love. fun listen, not offensive

Songs Of Love And Hate
Leonard Cohen
lyrically a wonderful album. Leonard Cohen is a master of songwriting. However, he is definitely not the master of vocals, or interesting arrangement. His vocal delivery honestly detracts from the quality of the lyricism for me.

Tea for the Tillerman
Cat Stevens
i can tell why it was popular! i like the energy, but i don’t love his voice. the band doesn’t feel super locked in either—kind of loose feeling, not always positively.

on one hand, i didn’t love it. on the other hand, ackles’ storytelling and lush Broadway arrangements were mesmerizing and the album flew past.
