3/5

I had listened to this back in 2022 and had only given it a 2.5, which feels quite wrong given how much I've been loving 2000s mall emo lately (not to mention how influential this album is + I love Crisis and Watch Out! from this band as well). I think my initial 2.5 was a bit harsh, but I can still see why I would've given it that. I think this band found their footing more on later releases (and the spoken word bits are...), but I guess their debut has such a following for a reason. Also, one of the most iconic album covers in emo.

No Talking Just Head

The Heads

3/5

It's an interesting pick. My impression was that this record was generally not very well-received, but conceptually a Talking Heads album with no Byrne and a myriad of guest vocalists is at least interesting. And there are quite a few pretty cool tracks here. It just sort of nosedives in the second half starting with Don't Take My Kindness for Weakness. There's definitely a share of clunkers here, but still a pretty worthwhile listen.

I've loved Your Ex-Lover Is Dead for years, but never listened to the album till now--glad I did, this is great!

Nail

Scraping Foetus off the Wheel

4/5

I respect this pick because it very well could have been one of those 80s industrial albums featured on the main list only to end up in the bottom 20 on the website (and I don't mean that as shade because I actually like Kollaps, Opus Dei, Duck Stab, Throbbing Gristle, etc.) 3.5/5

Somewhere In The Between

Streetlight Manifesto

4/5

I love this album cover, and the music was quite good too. This band has been on my radar for awhile, so good to listen to this one. Also put Everything Goes Numb on right after just for fun (I think I liked this one more though). 3.5/5

4/5

Back-to-back late 90s electronic albums with one big hit that offers a very distinct sound that I was unsure how would translate into a full album, and then I ended up quite liking the album (A3 Exile on Coldharbor Lane yesterday). 3.5/5

Idk, I guess one of my biggest music nerd hot takes is that I've just never gotten this album. And it's not that I'm trying to be contrarian or that I haven't given it a fair shot--I see why people like it, and I have tried multiple times to get into it and I just can't. Maybe F#A# (infinity) would do me better? I haven't heard that one yet
