You've Come a Long Way Baby
Fatboy Slim
A fun record, but a bit dated I suppose. Having been born in 1994, it gives me a weird sense of nostalgia. I heard the few two songs a lot as a kid.
Advances in sampling techniques and digital production mean that, today, this album sounds a bit rigid. It doesn’t help that the songs are so long. It’s a slow burn.

Run-D.M.C.
One of the most important albums of modern music. It’s hard to be honest without sounding pompous, but this music is unlikely to amaze today’s listeners, myself included (b. 1994). Yet the sparse, electro beats and outdated drum machines paved the way for hip hop to explode into the mainstream just a few years later. Amazing how the style evolved so quickly.

Finally, some good fucking r&b. This thing is soulful and catchy, but it’s also weird as hell at times, in a bold and clever way. I like the weird synth instruments. They really help push this album from ordinary to extraordinary.

Adele
This wasn’t bad. The first song is a highlight but also establishes a formula of soft, piano driven verses followed by blown-out choruses. It’s very 2010s-ish. A million years ago and all I ask are refreshing, with their colorful chords and vocal melodies

this is awesome. i had never heard of this until now. the singer absolutely kills it and has plenty of spunk and personality. she reminds of sugarcubes-era bjork or the lead singer from sleater-kinney. the music reminds me of parallel lines by Blondie or of a Madness record. This stuff is fun, dancey, and quirky.

Very laid back, expertly-performed reggae. None of the jam sessions are too long, and it seems like every instrument gets a chance to shine with some lead parts. Love the basslines. Occasionally things get so mellow that the music seems to fade into the background. Still, great stuff.

I'm Your Man
Leonard Cohen
Always thought it was odd that Leonard Cohen went in this electro, synth-based direction, but this album is executed phenomenally. Cohen’s baritone voice is full and rich. He’s even more of the drab, monotone singer he started as, but somehow he’s taken that approach far beyond what I thought would be possible. Excellent.

The Allman Brothers Band
Top tier musicianship and some badass blues rock. This is when the allman brothers had a bit more soul and attitude, I think. The songs can drag on a bit, with only 7 tracks in 80 minutes, but it's a live album, so it's not too surprising.

Black Metal
Venom
I don't know a lot about metal, but I'll try my best. First of all, this sounds kind of lo-fi. Also, everything feels very compressed. The vocalist reminds me of megadeath or metallica. The guitar seems more classic rock oriented, but it's definitely similar to those aforementioned bands, too.
I guess this album isn't considered black metal. I wonder if this album had any influence on the genre that would emerge some 10-odd years later? Maybe just the lo-fi part.
I'm not sure how I feel about this. It's pretty cool but also very muddy and I think there are other better introductions to the genre(s) of heavy metal

ONE OF MY FAVORITES OF ALL TIME!!!! Mostly covers. Lots of classic songwriting. The recording is rough and the performances are rock and roll as fuck. So much so that they inadvertently foreshadow the arrival of punk rock about a decade later... Also, the singer is a like a lil' Little Richard.
