Elvis Is Back

Elvis Presley

3/5

Enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Liked some of the ballad-y songs and some were fun to listen to, but some songs were just an okay and some didn't get my attention at all. I think this rock sound is just too old for my taste.

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below

OutKast

4/5

For someone who isnt too huge into rap, I found this double album very enjoyable. super good first album and the second had the banger hits and some underrated ones. Some songs definitely felt skippable, especially on the second album. 8/10

The Village Green Preservation Society

The Kinks

4/5

Very fun album with some Beatles vibes. Album wasn't anything mind-blowing but it was an enjoyable listen. 7/10

Sunday At The Village Vanguard

Bill Evans Trio

3/5

First Jazz album I've ever listened to, didn't really do it for me. Very talented musicians but the music just sounds like random bass/piano playing. Didn't really feel anything from the first listen. 5/10

Metallica

5/5

Almost perfect metal album, but still doesn't get to RTL, MOP, or Justice in terms of perfection. Production is still one of the greatest in metal, fantastic riffs, groove, and lyrics. Some songs are just an okay which prevents it from being perfect, but they don't feel skippable or boring at all. 9/10

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

4/5

Very solid rock album that can brighten up the mood. Not much to say about it, just a good vibe rock album. 7/10

BEYONCÉ

Beyoncé

2/5

That's a no from me. She has a good voice, but damn is it overproduced and soulless. Couldn't get myself to finish it all the way through.

Document

R.E.M.

3/5

Album was okay, really enjoyed the instrumentals, but the vocals ruined it for me. Exhuming McCarthy sounds like its straight from some commercial

Legalize It

Peter Tosh

4/5

Solid reggae album, second one I've listened to. Not perfect, but a good album to vibe to. 7/10

Surfer Rosa

Pixies

4/5

Decent album! Everything about this felt fun and original, only thing I dislike about it is the noise rock elements of it, almost gets to the level of giving me a headache. I can see the influence it did on grunge and I respect this album and band for it. 7.5/10

Solid Air

John Martyn

5/5

Best bluesy jazzy album I've heard so far. I love the atmosphere, the acoustics, the piano work, perfect. Great album for focus and relaxing. 9/10

The Last Broadcast

Doves

2/5

Sounds like Coldplay but more boring, vocals sound overly nasally sometimes and the songs are long with no progression at all. Very bland. 3/10

Tanto Tempo

Bebel Gilberto

3/5

Okay album, but not really for me. Felt like background music, didn't really have anything unique or mind-blowing. 6/10

Axis: Bold As Love

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

Great album, Jimi Hendrix is always enjoyable. Catchy songs, incredible guitar work, and no song was boring. 8/10, doesn't hit the level of Experienced but it still a great album.

We Are Family

Sister Sledge

3/5

Album was alright, not a huge fan of disco but I like how every song has a different flow. Not a bad album at all but not really something I would come back to. 6/10

Microshift

Hookworms

3/5

Okay album, didn't make me feel much though. I do like some of the experimented stuff they went for, but it didn't really do anything for me and also felt a bit generic at times. Another issue would be that the songs are too long with not much happening throughout. 5/10

Darkness on the Edge of Town

Bruce Springsteen

4/5

Very solid album! The only flaw really is the vocals, he kind of just mumbles his way through everything, but the instrumentals throughout the whole album is fantastic. 7/10
