Young Americans

David Bowie

4/5

Good album, class first 4 songs. Bowie always bangs. Pas mal. Young Americans song slaps

The Boatman's Call

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

3/5

Into my arms - certified anthem. Far from me also a highlight. Very pretty and chill album. Not always the most distinguishable songs but still very good! Very luscious instrumentation, great voice as well

Aftermath

The Rolling Stones

2/5

Paint it black obvs great. Was alright, bit outdated.

Machine Head

Deep Purple

5/5

The guitar, the base the drums, the riffs. Classic 70s rock. Smoke on the water = iconic. Where tf did Lazy come from - minutes and minutes of unreal guitars. Last song also a highlight. 5 stars!

The Stranger

Billy Joel

5/5

Immmmm mooovvving outtt!!! Good mix of bangers and slow ones. Piano, sax, guitar it's got it at all. Quel chops ! Got it on vinyl, woop 😯 would listen again

The Hour Of Bewilderbeast

Badly Drawn Boy

2/5

It was fine. Nothing special tbh x

Signing Off

UB40

2/5

Ten

Pearl Jam

2/5

Respect it. Had a couple of alright songs. Not my cuppa Tea. Singer sounds like a goat sometimes hahaha.

Raising Hell

Run-D.M.C.

3/5

Who knew walk this way could be made rap. Not me. Pretty decent

Lazer Guided Melodies

Spiritualized

4/5

Spiritualized - very chill, instrumentation nice, kind of choir like. Sounds like stone roses but a bit wilder. Symphony space a bit boring, first song a bit too choirey. Shine a light - uplifting, spacey, experimental, love the track, what a finish Long songs towards the end Good overall album, not always the most recognisable singles. But all together it makes a pretty nice listen!

This Is Fats Domino

Fats Domino

4/5

Classic rock n roll/blues bangers. Love a wee oldie.

If I Should Fall From Grace With God

The Pogues

2/5

I'm not in Ireland. See next review Pogues for more context. Still got some banging tunes haha e.g Fairytale of NY

Hysteria

Def Leppard

4/5

Album is class. Would revisit! Not completely my cup of Tea, but songs are timeless :) highlights: love bites, armageddon it

Strangeways, Here We Come

The Smiths

3/5

First half is a sleeper. Little disappointed as i love the other Smiths albums but far from the worst album I've heard. Writing a bit boring and not as catchy tunes. Last night I dreamt and stop me are beautiful songs. I won't share you as well :)

The Rise & Fall

Madness

3/5

Our house. Primrose Hill. Rise and fall. Couple other good tunes. Madness are also very good live! But album 3.5, tails off at the end. Listen to 1st half again tho

Bookends

Simon & Garfunkel

4/5

Some good tunes. Great melodies, Mrs Robinson all time classico. America nice tune, overs lovely as well. Decent album, slightly missing the 5 stars tho, better luck next time buddy

System Of A Down

1/5

Not for me

Hot Fuss

The Killers

5/5

Classic indie songs. Every white boy's wet dream. Can't not sing along. I'm not even sorry. All these things that I've done ✔️ Mr Brightside ✔️ wasn't sure whether to go for it. But 5 stars it is

Rum Sodomy & The Lash

The Pogues

2/5

Fantastic if I was a pub in Ireland with several Guinness down my throat but I'm not. What else to say haha

Hotel California

Eagles

3/5

For one of the most listened to albums of all time it's quite disappointing tbh. It's fine listening but can't really remember anything too much. Couple of nice songs :)

Halcyon Digest

Deerhunter

4/5

Never heard of these guys, but this album is pretty cool! Revival is a great song, very chill indie/alt/pop album. Sweet and luscious, just like me 😋🫢

Mr. Tambourine Man

The Byrds

5/5

Not got the most amount of bangers. But if you like all the songs then it's got to be a 5 right? Mr tamboomrine man 🤦‍♂️

The Seldom Seen Kid

Elbow

3/5

One day like this & Grounds for divorce are tunes. The fix was quite nice as well. Overall, doesn't do much for me. Fine listening but won't be coming back, thanks x

(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Oasis

5/5

I'm just going to Rollllll with it and Takkeeee my timmeeeee with this review. Wonder wall, don't look back in anger, cast no shadow, champagne supernova, she's electric etc etc. Wow so many bangers, basically perfect from the Manc lads 👌

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

Kanye West

4/5

Album has some class songs. Power is anthemic. Gorgeous also a bop. Shame Kanye is such an anti-semite and general asshole. All of the lights and monster not as good, Nicki Minaj pisses me off on the latter song haha. And devil in a new dress is confusing... the song doesn't mention the colour, style of this new dress at all 🤔 song slaps tho. Good album x

The Slim Shady LP

Eminem

2/5

Shady just don't give a fuck. Very clear with the lyrics 🙄, influential record tho. Good beats, some good songs. But just not entirely for me. 2.5 I'd say

Parklife

Blur

3/5

Parklife is the ultimate British tune. If you're not having a carling and a pack of pork scratchings listening to it what's going on :o girls and boys is another highlight! Decent listen all the way through but not hugely stand out for this genre.

Third

Portishead

4/5

What an entrancing voice! Luscious and interesting music and amazing drums throughout! Machine gun was the only song too jarring. It's not an everyday listen so just misses out on a 5 star!
