Hot Fuss by The Killers
Mar 06 2023

A god damn classic. No ifs, ands, or buts. A soundtrack. A moment in time. Catchy as hell songwriting.

S&M by Metallica
Mar 07 2023

Sounds immense. Should it have worked? Idk, but it did. Still as fresh as the first time I heard it. Nothing heavier in metal than a brass section. Unreal vocal performance. Plus my son just said it sounds like Bowser music from Super Mario. No more notes needed.

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy
Mar 08 2023

It's not even that I don't like this. I can appreciate it. Production value, lyricist ability, endless sounds and being slammed over the head with the message. It's just not for me overall.

1999 by Prince
Mar 09 2023

Prince is daddy.

Dookie by Green Day
Mar 10 2023

Little Clash Junior is right cunnin'.

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Mar 11 2023

Smooth listening. Great songwriting. Hell of a voice and it just makes me feel good.

Mar 12 2023

I mean, it's fine. Has it's place. Wasn't in the mood for it today. But I've been watching a lot of Yellowstone and drinking whiskey lately so it all makes sense.

Red Headed Stranger by Willie Nelson
Mar 13 2023

Didn't like it. That's that. Can see his influence on modern country singers that I like. This is fine.

Mar 14 2023

I wouldn't listen to this if no one would ever find out that I was listening to this.

Swordfishtrombones by Tom Waits
Mar 16 2023

An American legend. This album straddles his tendencies for rambling stories, grumbling growls, and catchy melodies. Like this one a lot and missing it on my shelf.

Pyromania by Def Leppard
Mar 17 2023

It won't play on Spotify thankfully.

Dummy by Portishead
Mar 18 2023

Answers the age old question of, what does synth wave sound like if performed by a witch in medieval times?

Teenage Head by Flamin' Groovies
Mar 19 2023

This is great. Love the Stones vibe with California injections.

Tragic Songs of Life by The Louvin Brothers
Mar 20 2023

Twang, sadness, twang, whiskey, twang, Kentucky, twang, god, double twang. Can't believe they ripped off Nirvana though.

Winter In America by Gil Scott-Heron
Mar 22 2023

Not on any services I use. Except the title song and it's live. Didn't get me there.

Diamond Life by Sade
Mar 23 2023

This is the music that transitions a film scene from the beach to the dinner scene in a rom com. This isn't a compliment. If you like real jazz you will hate this. If I had never heard music before I would still think this sucks. Why do people like bad things? I don't understand it.

Exit Planet Dust by The Chemical Brothers
Mar 24 2023

Ahhhhhhhhh I feel like I'm going insane. I can't. No. Just no. No times the brothers gonna work it out equals no.

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Mar 25 2023

An all timer. No filler, just a band firing on all cylinders to create a perfect American work. 10 stars. Bruce is the man. It's that simple. Greatest American rock artist to ever do it.

Repeater by Fugazi
Mar 26 2023

Good fucking record. Wish I found it when I was 10 in the early 90's. Can hear their obvious influence on countless modern and early aughts bands.

Mar 27 2023

Pleasantly surprised. This is great. Heart and feeling and great melodies and lyrics. Did she originate the Irish warble? Seems likely.

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading
Mar 28 2023

I've had trouble falling asleep lately. Not anymore.

Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Mar 31 2023

It's Bob Marley. You know?

No Other by Gene Clark
Apr 01 2023

I think I'm going insane with the records this project keeps throwing at me. This is fine. It's not revolutionary. I can't imagine it being revolutionary in 1974 either. Horrific album art.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Apr 04 2023

Such an odd listen. Definitely like it. They were a band more than Blister In The Sun for sure.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Apr 09 2023

Meh.

Rust In Peace by Megadeth
Apr 12 2023

I feel empty. This band is so dumb.

Garbage by Garbage
Apr 13 2023

This checkmarks zero boxes for me. Sugary sweet grunge. Candy grunge. Crange. Cange. Grundy.

Eagles by Eagles
Apr 16 2023

Fuck the eagles. They don't even get a capital letter.

All Hope Is Gone by Slipknot
Apr 19 2023

I Iiked them when I was 18. I'm not 18 anymore.

In Utero by Nirvana
Apr 20 2023

I like Nirvana.

Faith by George Michael
May 03 2023

Fuck off.

Run-D.M.C. by Run-D.M.C.
May 06 2023

Don't care.

Elephant by The White Stripes
May 20 2023

Excellent. Perfect. Extraordinary. Rock at its finest.

Ramones by Ramones
May 23 2023

Good.
