I'd never heard this album before. So far so good! I know Miles Davis is a jazz god, so glad I'm getting exposed to this! Will come back to write some more when I've heard it all. Will I still be able to write if I click save? Testing... Yep! chat soon. Very nice soothing music! 2/5 stars
LOVE IT! Loved the way it transported me back to the days I never lived in but know from movies.
Awwwwe yeah, here's my jam! Love me some DM That was great!! As much as I love DM I'd never heard that album!
Liked it but not crazy about it. I liked the Who Shot the Sherrif cover the best
Amazing album! I really enjoyed it. I'd heard lot about it before and know of him of course. I see his face every time I go to A Bar Named Sue. There was a track on there where his wife June sings with him (Jackson). Now it all makes sense. Johnny / June on the bathroom doors. I didn't know that was his wife. I hearted one song called Give My Love to Rose.
Liked it! I'd only ever heard Intro by them before, so it was interesting to hear their voices both male and female
Never gets old!
meh
Okay this album is really weird. Silly nonsensical lyrics, okay electronic sounds, some real jazzy parts. Definitely very unique. I found it a bit amateur and lazy as far as the lyrics go, but again had some real interesting sounds that I enjoyed.
Country. Not my bag.
Actually really dug this album! I didn't know he was the same rapper of Tribe Called Quest. This is the type of hip hop / rap I like!
I've always liked Leonard Cohen ever since Natural Born Killers. This album is great! I like the dark overtones, his deep voice, and the sinister of it. The only thing I don't like is how much biblical and god references there are.
This album came out in 1996, you'd think I would have hear about it before but I hadn't. Honestly, it's a bit repetitive, and kinda slow. Every now and then I get a nostalgic 90s feel but. Not blown away.
This was a really great album. I kept hearing Talking Heads voice all through out. The electronic music element combined with the Talking Heads sound made for a really great album!
ooooh I'm excited for this one! Oh man, that album was amazing!! They had lots of tracks I hadn't heard. A few that were very suprisingly jazzy. And one that was very punk. Amazing album.
Never heard of these guys. I'll give it an honest listen. Being that it's 1981 might have some potential. Wait!! I just saw what their top track is. Temptation from Train Spotting. So yes I've heard them but that's the only song. Cool! Now I'm excited. Well it was alright. Nothing I would revisit again. It definitely had that feeling like it was trying to break away from the previous decades sound that was disco. I think the coke pandemic had already invaded Britain by this point.
Oooh some good 60s oldies. I can dig it! There's something very special with these older pioneers of rock. This album was incredible!! Absolutely loved it.. I love music that can transport me back in time, and this record definitely did that for me. This had the unmistakable sound of the 60s, every track on this record was excellent!
Never really listened to Prince before. I'll give it an honest listen. "Slow Love" is a pretty good song. It's the first track that I really think is good. Well I couldn't make it through the rest. It wasn't really keeping my attention. I don't know what all the fuss is about Prince. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Never heard of this band. But I can get down with some 60s rock! \m/ Man this album has been fire!! I get some real strong Jimmy Hendrix vibes, mainly from the guitar sounds. But yeah these guys rock! They straddle the line between rock and metal imo. They're all white boys but they sound black. lol hmm they're from Michigan I guess. The last track Starship is very cool! Sinister and psychedelic. The last part kind of sounded like Willie Wonka in the boat scene.
Don't know if I know these guys. Starts off pretty cool! 1994 was a good year for music. I have hope for this one. Hm, there's The London Suede and then just Suede. Both sound exactly the same. Apparently they are one and the same. First song was a little trippy, kinda psychedelic. Second song sounds more like something you would hear on the radio. But I like it! They're very British. I'm really digging this album. Talented musicians. Has a bit of U2 vibes and sometimes David Bowie. Wow I'm seriously blown away by this album! Especially this track, Still Life, it's orchestral, and beautiful.
Yay, The Cars!! i've heard Good Times Roll, and Just What I Needed on the radio plenty of times. The voice is very unique. And I'm diggin the ol rocknroll styel. When music was not all digitized. Moving in Stereo is a good song too!
Let's give this a listen. Interesting name and album cover art...jazz? Yep! Only 4 tracks for a length of 53 min. Zombie, has lyrics. I love it! It has a very African sound to it that I'm enjoying.
Awe yeah! A classic. This takes me back to the Shani days. Some good some bad memories. But I do like me some Eminem.
Loving this album!! It's very Massive Attackish. This was a great album! Loved the ambience and the eeriness.
Oh fuck yeah!!! I've heard this one many many times. What an amazing album!! Now THIS one takes me back to the good ol days. Killing me softly was on the radio a lot when I first moved back down here in 1995. But the whole album is really great!
The Rolling Stones were a huge deal. I personally never got into them. I don't dislike them. I just never really seek them out. So this will be a fun listen. It was good. Nothing mind blowing or nothing that stuck out.
Okay lets do this. I first knew of David Bowie from Labrynth. Then from Se7en. (Heart's filthy lesson). Then Moulin Rouge (Nature Boy). Other than that I don't know too much about his music.
hmmmm, well okay, if I must... I'm actually really enjoying this! It's that old country sound. Like the sound of Not In Nottingham. Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain, was nice. Sad. Can I Sleep in Your Arms is good too. There is some really great guitar plucking in this album!
Some old school rap, let's go! Never heard it before but this was during my montana years, and I wanted to be a black mun, lol the time of cross colors. I would pick old school rap over new rap any day. Rap now is weird. Wow, the intro to Bring the Noize surprised me. It's metal, and the vocals are similar to Limp Biskit. It's Anthrax in the background
Hmm Primal Scream aren't they techno? HAHA NOPE, they sound a bit like Rolling Stones honestly. Rock. Kinda cool. it's a 90 min album. So Primal Scream did do a song on the Trainspotting soundtrack. That song is def more techno than this album. But pretty cool so far! I'm really digging this journey to 1001 albums. A few of the tracks were not available on Spotify :/
Hm Air, sounds familiar. I like the album art. Vocals just started. I thought it would be a female singer. It's not. I like it! Suits my mood today. Yeah really digging this actually! Cemetary Party (interesting spelling) is cool! It sounds cinematic to me. Like it could be the background for some movie scene. I love the eeriness of Dark Messages. Highschool Lover sounds like a song I've heard before but with lyrics. I liked that one. Yeah I think this one's getting 5 stars! oooh Empty House is catchy. Apparently this album was named after the movie by the same name. And the very last track Suicide Underground, seems to have excerpts from the movie? Just found out that movie was directed by Sofia Coppola, daughter of the great Francis Ford Coppola!
Some more good ol 60s rock. It's nice, I like it. Probably wouldn't revisit this album. Very 60s iconic rock. What fun times those must have been. I wonder if any of this stuff is ever played on the radio. Never heard this band before.
I think I may have one of this guys songs saved. Very bluesy! I like it! Just turned up the volume a bit, this is some good blues!! He's got a great gravely voice (for a white boy :P) Man this was actually a really good album. I saved not 1 not 2 but 3 songs from it!! 5 stars.
Alright, I could do some rap today. Feeling in that mood! Lets get this. Once again, an album I've never heard. Heard of them obviously. And maybe I'll recognize a song here and there. We'll see. Meh
Meh, I wasn't too impressed. I had heard one of these songs on the radio, Cars, but every song sounded a little bit like it. Kind of repetitive sounds and vocals. I was familiar with some of his more recent stuff. In fact I have one of his songs "liked" It's a TOTALLY different style than this album was. Much more sinister and dark. He was actually here a couple weeks ago with Ministry!!! I really should have gone. Oh well.
Oh shit! Everyone obviously knows Toms Diner, but I honestly have never heard anything other than that! lol Excited to see what this will be like. hmmmm she sings like a kid sings when they just make songs up. Not a whole lot of melodic, vocals. Reminds me of Frente a little bit. Wow this album is from 1985? Didn't realize she started so early.
Hey!! Diego has a shirt of this picture. I've been actually liking old rap lately. This will be a good one. Good stuff! I'll probably be revisiting this one. A couple songs had some sexy sensual stuff! ;)
I couldn't tell you any songs by Deep Purple, though I know that they were a pretty big deal once upon a time. Oh, HA! JK Smoke on the Water. Everyone knows that song! I'm diggin it so far. Something special about that eras rock. Dare I say it was purer than todays rock? Good stuff so far! Wow! The Drums on Flight of the Rat!! The drums have been a key highlight for me on this album. I really liked that album! 4 stars!
Some more 60's rock, alright!! German-based American rock band hm!
Going into this blindly and the first song is one I've definitely heard. Gotta Get Up, it's the song they used in the Russian Doll show. Without You is also a popular song. What the fuck! Coconut is his too?! "She put the lime in the coconut...."
By the album art looks like county, but per Wiki, he's Lo-fi, Alternative country, Alternative/Indie, Underground music, Neofolk, Gothic country, Metal. Quite the spread of genres. Pretty guitar on the first song. Slow chill beat. Nice voice. His diversity is even present within this album. The Wind and The Dove starts out with a nice Arabic riff. Rather enjoying this so far.
HEYYY! I used to have this album! It's been ages since I've listened to it. My favorite was Rock n roll Nigger, but of course that is no available on Spotify, found it on YouTube though. Listening to that first. I could have sworn it was on Horses but I guess it was on Easter. I guess my first time hearing her was from the NBK soundtrack! Pure gold that one!
OH FUCK YEAH!!!! I have listened to this hundreds of time!! What interesting album art. I've always been fascinated by NIN and their artistic expressions. 5 stars on this one obviously. I love the darkness of this album. Crazy that I came to know and understand a lot of the anger and depression and darkness that comes from this album. Absolutely love it.
Hmm is this country?? I don't country much. Okay good, Google says she's "an American blues singer and guitarist." Lets give it a listen. Well it def has the 80s synth sounds here and there. Sounds country to me, but tolerable. It was nice. Probably not something I'd revisit. But I didn't hate it. 2 stars
I have no idea what to expect here. Never heard of it and the album are is pretty obscure. Cool though! Ghost tits! lol Well I listened to this while walking Mia. Thoughts: Ethereal, hum drone, reminded me of Tame Impala a lot, and a male version of Mazzy Star. Slow, mellow. I liked it.
Boston! Okay, lets do this. I know I know some of their songs. Just couldn't name a single one right now. Oh yes! More than a Feeling. Definitely know that one. Yep that's a golden record there!! All of them are big hits.
Heyyyyyyyy, so according to my uncle Manuel who I saw about 15-16 yrs ago, this was one of my dads favorite album. Don't think I've ever listened to it front to back though. Excited for this one! oooooh it's a 2 disc set. I didn't know that
I do love me some Simon & Garfunkel! Haven't heard this album from start to finish but am familiar with at least one of the tracks. America. This "Voices of Old People" track is interesting. Oh Mrs. Robinson is on this album. And it says "from The Graduate soundtrack" I'm gonna have to watch that. I've seen it around a lot and heard of it a bunch.
Serge Gainsbourg, hm! French! Awesome! I liked it!
Chicago! Lets go! Didn't realize how jazzy they were! Diggin this! the first one was just instrumental. Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is? I've heard this one! Wow Poem 58 is awesome! Very Hendrixy
awe :( Amy. There's something so sad about her death and hits me harder knowing addiction. She left us a lot of gold. And she was so pretty! What an amazing artist! Her style is beautiful. Old and jazzy and modern all in one. Lovin this album.
Well I know ONE song from Meatloaf lol and it's not on this album. It will be an interesting listen. I get a musical movie type vibe so far. Especially track 2 sounds like a play. Reminds me of Grease.
Another new artist for me here. Only 4 tracks. I'm thinking jazz? Maybe just a pianist. Wow, I guess he played with Miles Davis for a time. Damn he's good! That was nice. It was relaxing.
Take Five is such a great song!
Okay. TGD Know of them and probably only one or two of their songs. Oh Friend of the Devil! HA they mention Utah in that song. The 60s and 70s were great decades for music. They had a shit ton of albums. Oh okay 13 according to ChatGPT. Second song they mention Utah. (Operator) Harmonica in this one. Reminds me a lot of Simon and Garfunkel. Truckin' I've heard this one too.
All I know of these guys is Sultans of Swing. Such an amazing solo in that. Oh! Money for Nothing just came on. I've heard this one a bunch. Never knew who it was. Oh WTF, Walk of Life is them too? The sound on those 2 songs are def 80s. So different from Sultans of Swing even though that was in 78, and this album is 85. Oh man this sax on Your Latest Trick is so 80s! Actually really enjoying Why Worry too. Nice guitar picking and sounds like some thunder. The Man's Too Strong sounds cool. Kinda country kinda blues kinda rock. Great album!
Well I listened to it. I liked it. Nothing terribly special. I had some notes in here earlier that got wiped away. I'll try to remember what I wrote. I think it was something along the lines of. I couldn't name a single Prince song, and that I know he was a big deal, and that this album was a big deal. I saw a video of him jammin out to guitar one time, and was really surprised how awesome it was. He can really jam! the first track had an awesome finale. The rest of the album I listened to at the gym so I wasn't totally tuned in. Purple rain was def catchy. And supposedly John was listening to that song this morning. What a quinky dink.
1997! This has promise. :) It's a bit Oasisy it was alright.
Fuck yeah, super stoked for this one! That was a great album. Funny how the songs are all so short. The whole album was just over 20 minutes. Loved it!
Hm, do I know Yes. I feel like I should. Let's take a listen.... The first track is 18:41 long. Kinda interesting. It's def 70's but this song is all over the place. Seems very disorganized, and chaotic. Like they just made it up as they went. Not too impressed.
I think I'll give this a 3. I liked the sinister feel to it. Slow and dark. I'd probably only ever heard what's been on the radio by S&TB.
I love this!! I love the Brit punk feel to it all.
I hope it's not country. Yep sure is. lol oh well we'll tough it out. Okay I'm kinda getting into it now. It's not terrible. lol
Don't know what to expect here but at least it doesn't seem like country. Okay this is super trippy. Very experimental. No real melody or tunes. I'll give it a 1.
Man! This album. I remember getting this through columbia records cd subscription. This and Cypress Hill. Everyone was bumping this! 1992. I was 13, 8th grade at Edna Thomas Middle school in Corvallis. lol Cross colors clothing was the shit, and Boyz in the Hood had just come out a year earlier.
I thought maybe this would be another country album by the cover art. It was not. It was actually quite nice. I listened while at the gym so I wasn't jotting down notes as I listened. But I enjoyed the bluesy sounds to it. And some good sax on the second to last song.
Really excited for this one. I don't know why I never really got into Massive Attack even though I was always obsessed with Faithless and they are often referred to as similar groups/music. The first track is pretty dope so far. Vocals sound a bit like Maxi Jazz RIP. I really liked that album! There was a song that had the same bass line as one of the Faithless songs. Five Man Army was the MA song, and Dirty ol Man was the faithless song.
hm, never heard of him before. But chances are I've heard a song from here. Well it's not as rappy as I thought it'd be. In fact it reminds me a lot of Black Eyed Peas. It's not bad, tolerable. Creeping into earning 3 stars. 😁
I actually really enjoyed this. Not sure if it merrits a 4 but definitely a 3. I liked the blue overtone it had throughout the album. I didn't realize Bob Dylan had continued making music past the 80s let alone into the 90s.
Alright some more jazz! We just recently rewatched LaLa Land. It's cool how much he loved jazz in that movie. It will help me get through the last hour of work. Nice! I liked it but prolly only a 2.
Yay! I love The Smiths. Well I didn't get to this today. But I will over the weekend.
HA! I didn't know the band OR song was called Green Onions. Pretty distinct sound. Pretty sure this was on The Sandlot. Hm, that's cool they do instrumentals for well known songs. Like I Got a Woman, Twist and Shout. Stranger on the Shore is nice. Slow. Comin' Home Baby is also cool!
It was okay. Not something I'd replay probably. Stevie Nicks sure does have a pretty voice though. Thought it was cool that it was my birthyear. There were some songs that were decent. 2 stars
Hm...sounds like something that should be on Dazed and confused. For a band I'd never heard of I really liked their sound. Iconic 70s rock. The vocals reminded me of the intro song to Freaks and Geeks. I wonder why they aren't more well known.
oooh looks intriguing. 2007...Is it metal? 🤞🏽 OH FUCK YEAH, the first electronic album. Sounds synth waveish. I dig it! It's very Daft Punk-y. Apparently they are also a French Duo. Dug quite a few of those songs! One I will revisit.
This is indeed a great album. It has lots of great songs. Devil's Haircut, The New Pollution, Jack-Ass, Where It's At. And one that wasn't on the radio called Ramshackle. Good stuff here.
Hey these guys are pretty cool! Neon Bible has a good sound. Kinda indie rock. Ocean of Noise is pretty. I like this album so far. Creeping up into a 4 star rating. The album was actually really great!
Don't know if I'll make it through todays album. It's 2hrs and first track is very experimental if the rest is like that then... yeah, not gonna happen. Well it turned out to be good ol 70s rock, but a bit too busy for me. Sorry. 1.5 stars.
The Cardigans!!! I'm always down for some nostalgic 90s tunes. I don't think I've listened to this whole album. Just Lovefool. oooh cool flute at the end of that first track. I didn't know these guys were Swedish. I really love Nina Persson's voice. It's like tangerine honey. How was Lovefool such a great song!! It totally sticks out from all the other songs to this point. What a hit! Great Divide...nice lyrics. Well the whole album was only 39 min. I was good, but of all the songs Lovefool is the best. Don't think I would revisit any of the other songs. 3 stars.
Hm, she's fucking hot!! I can do with some R&B today. Let's check it out! It was a decent album, a couple of tracks with naughty lyrics. Which I love. Doves in the Wind and Pretty Little Birds were the ones that grabbed my attention.
She Don't Use Jelly is the only song I've heard from these guys. I think. Ryan Sessions loved them. It was pretty decent. I like how different it is from most music these days. Turn of the millenium.... I'd say 3 solid stars
Wow Summertime has a beautiful guitar intro. I'm liking this album so far. Piece of My Heart!? cool, didn't know it was these guys. Turtle Blues was cool too. I like that they have more than one vocalist. Female and male. Ball and Chain is cool too! Oh WTF I just realized the singer is JANIS JOPLIN! what a blues voice she has!! I feel stupid that I hadn't recognized her voice before.
I couldn't get into this. It sounds like he's singing out of tune, or backwards or some weird shit. Experimental and trance-like is how spotify describes it. It's just noise to me.
Awe yeah runnin around robbin banks all whacked on scooby snacks! That's really the only song of theirs I could recognized, so I'm curious to see how the album holds up to that. I dig it. rap-like lyrics, slight Beastie Boys vibe. Nice blues lick on Passive/Aggressive. I like the hip-hop vibe mixed with metal guitars on this one. I keep getting Faith No More vibes too.
I'm actually liking this! I like that it's not gangsta rap. It's talented good rap. I think Aaron would actually like this. LOL Heart Street Directions skit was funny. R.A.G.U sounds great! Bad Mouth Kid lol. Whip You With A Strap is awesome too! Momma is good too. Solid 4 stars
Oh cool! Some Franky! I love the mood he sets. Funny I'd never heard any of these songs before.
Okay! Try Me just came on. Such a pretty song. I really love blues! I liked the energy in this album. 4 stars.
Some jazz huh? Okay. Coltrane is one of the greats so I hear. I'm going to be thinking of Whiplash. The cymbals on this first track is cool! Cool bass line. Meh it was okay. 2 stars
That's pretty cool art. Interesting music. It's pretty unique. I like how the end of each song bleeds into the next like it's one continuous track. It is a bit experimental and a bit unorganized, chaotic. Zen Archer is the first track that sounds like an actual song. lol Okay I really like Medley: I'm So Proud/ Ooh Baby Baby/ La La Means I Love You/ Cool Jerk. It super pretty. I hearted it. meh, it was alright. There were a few good songs but nothing I'd revisit.
I'm excited for this one. I actually kinda like his newer stuff better. Same with The Eels. This is so much different than Loser. It's slow and heart felt. I don't know I'll say 3 on this one.
Mom had this vinyl! Let's give it a go. I'm pretty sure I've listened to it before but not sure if I listened to from beginning to end. There's a big mural downtown that mimics the cover art of this album. I like the sitar and drum on Within You Without You. I really like A Day In The Life! pretty.
Well it's gotta be good right, it was born the same year as I was! Well it was alright. I mean he definitely has a unique voice. Hard to confuse that with anyone else. Satirical lyrics.
hm, the album art is deceiving. It looks like 70s art. Not sure what to expect here. Metal, rock, indie? Didn't get through it all at work, maybe I'll finish it up at the gym. Their voice reminds me of Counting Crows. It was alright. I liked the nostalgia feeling. 3⭐️
oh fuck yeah dude. Never did own this album nor have I listened to it other than what they would have played on the radio. So this will be nice. Dude I actually really like this. Love the attitude and the rhyming. This album is great! 5 ✨
oh hell yeah!! 5 stars without even listening yet 😁 I don't know if I've ever listened to a whole Slayer album before. I'm pumped! My only qualm is that it's only 34 minutes long. Oh shit, Raining Blood is on this album! Fuck they're so good!
Well this is a five right off the bat! Fucking love Led Zeppelin! Funny a girl at the coffee shop here was wearing a LZ shirt. It was good to see that. And I guess this was meant to be! ❤️ I had a song on this album hearted "Since I've Been Loving You" such a good song! Slow and bluesy.
Well I've definitely heard La Grange. First one I recognize. Meh it was okay. Only 2 stars.
I couldn't tell you a single song from this guy but I know I've heard him. Born to Run is kinda cool. 2 stars
awwwwwe yeah now we talkin! What a unique and beautiful voice! 4 stars
Wilco...sounds like I've heard this name. Well I misread the date of this album. I thought it said 1966. 1996 was a golden year. Kinda digging this. It's a bit country a bit grunge.
The Beastie Boys sure are a unique sound. I dig it.
Rip Buddy Holly. This 50s rock sure is fun. Would have been so cool to be alive during this time. There's not a single track longer than 3 minutes. This will be a quick 25 min listen. hehe. 3 stars
OMG! This album is amazing! Takes me back to when I first moved here. I'd listen to the tape on my walkman on the bus on my to parklane and back.
meh, I wan't super impressed. Had a hard time getting through it. 2 stars. nah 1
I do like Leonard Cohen. First heard of him on the Natural Born Killers soundtrack. His style is definitely unique. I like his deep voice. I always think he looked like Al Pacino. I enjoyed it. I'll give it a 4
Alright, some Marvin Gaye. Can't go wrong there. What a nice smooth voice. Very nice. 4 stars.
This album looks familiar. Came out the year I graduated from high school. This first one sounds like the Beetles funny because the song is called Beetlebum. Pretty good. I'll give it 4 stars
Alright, I'm down to change it up with some rap 👍🏽 '91! meh, it was aight 2 stars
Well apparently this album is not available on Spotify. I'll pull up a couple youtube videos. Well I found the whole album on YT so I'll just listen to it there. It's only 36 min. mmmm not really my bag. 2 stars.
awe, my wife's favorite artist. I liked it, maybe 3 stars.
It was okay. Was kind of distracted when I was listening to it so I don't have much to say.
Sounds 70s, not gonna listen to all of it
Cool funky jazz. Not gonna listen to all of it. Catching up from vacation.
Funny that this was one of my missed album. Amanda sent me a white stripes song while I was out. I do like this style.
5 stars right off the bat. Love this woman so much. I feel like I can completely relate to her in regards to the heroin addiction. And the Back to Black song is just so epic. I have tried to perfect singing that.
I like the 80's synth in this first song. Not typically his style.
never followed her much after Extraordinary Machine. I don't like this album too much. It's too noisy and unmelodic meh, 2 stars
I think he has a song on the Garden State Soundtrack. His voice is familiar. He's a pretty talented musician. I can definitely appreciate the talent here. His voice is so smooth. Reminds me of Simon and Garfunkel. I'll give it 4 stars.
Fuck yeah!! 5 Stars.
I really like The Way You Make Me Feel. Ever since seeing Haily Reinhart and Casey Abrams perform it. Maybe I'll add that to my karaoke list. Solid 4 stars
It was okay, listened to it while making dinner. I do have a few of his songs saved. This one was too talky. The jazz was nice but no real singing.
Oh man this album has so many great hits! I would have loved to live through the 80s at an older age than I did. Lots of good music and culture from those times.
Hm. Don't know if I've heard this before! Okay I have heard Girls & Boys. And duh! Blur. I think they have a song on the Trainspotting album. 3 stars
Awwwwe yeah some Lauryn Hill!! I fucking loved the Fugees Score album! This album is great. The outro to Lost ones is cute. Pretty guitar in To Zion. The beats in this are so cool. And the way she flows is so cool! 5 stars for this one. Damn Final Hour hits hard!
Alright! Some good ol fashioned thrash metal! These guys were the pioneers to thrash man! Good stuff. 80s was a good decade for hard-core metal. Fucking LOVE Megadeth!
I'm not fond of his voice. Gabi and Jackson ruined that for me lol They were playing Ace of Spades on guitar hero on time, over and over and over. Whoa are they British!?
I kind of passively listened to this album today while I "worked". It's not their best stuff by any means but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I will give it 4 stars.
Well that sucks! This album is not on Spotify. But I fucking love Maggot Brain by these guys. I'll have to look it up on YouTube. It is on there. I like the name of some of these songs. Groovallegiance, Promentalshitbackwashpychosis, ooooooh and Maggot brain is on this album too. lol Lunchmeataphobia. 5 stars. Pretty unique band!
Well I have enjoyed this album. It's very mellow, and chill. I like the acoustic sound, and the way they harmonize. What these guys are British too? WTF Mate. We'll say 4 stars here.
Alright! Some talking heads! They will always remind me of American Psycho. Read the novel and it mentions them in there. I think they're also on the movie. Listening to this while talking to Kimberly, so a little distracted, because I just fucking love her. I think she may have put a love spell on me LOL But it's been good background noise. Such a unique voice and style. Hard not to recognize them.
Okay well, I hope no one finds out I've got this playing. That's grounds to get your ass kicked! I'll give it a go. Okay first of all why not capitalize any words! That's just stupid. I do like the album cover. It reminds me of Corvallis. I can smell the autumn in that picture. Takes me back to simpler times. Okay it's not terrible. I actually like the second track Champagne Problems.
Some funky soul brotha stuff! Lets go! How wild would it be to have lived in the 70s during the height of the disco ages lol. Very interesting times. I guess I can say I did live 6months of the 70s lol. Pretty alright. Probably wouldn't seek it out again though. But entertaining nonetheless. 3 stars.
Hm I'd never really listened to Stevie Wonder. I like the vibe. He's got a really nice smooth voice. LOL Boogie on Reggae Woman. I like that title. Electric boogie, in its infancy. I like the disco feel on You Haven't Done Nothin. The piano on They Won't Go When I Go is pretty! That was a pretty song. Sound gospelly. Was going to rate it a 3 but then I read up on him a bit. He was pretty much a child prodigy. Got signed with Motown's label Tamla at the age of 11! And had a #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 at 13!
This album is not on Spotify. Found it on YT though. '89 hm....dance type 80's reminds me of what I imagine Paula Abdul sounds like. Yeah very clubby. Hm this track is almost industrial. Lots of funky sounds in some of these tracks, like ringing of phones, and crickets and lots of fun with the synth. Stop this Crazy Thing is catchy. Has some brass in it. Smoke dis one, I like the old school rap sound there. Okay cool stuff but only a 2 in my book for today.
Interesting, Milla Jovovich released her album by the same name 2 yrs earlier. Never heard of Casanova. He's got an interesting style. Reminds me of a 90's modern day Frank Sinatra. lol Lyrics are so nineties. There's a hint of sinister darkness to this. I like it. As obscure as this has been I've been enjoying it. The last track The Dogs & The Horses was actually really pretty. I liked the variety and weirdness in this. I'll give it a 4.
HEHE 12 songs for a total of 28 min. I do love me some Beach Boys. How cool would it have been to grow up on the coast in California? This album came out in 65 hm. I don't see any of their big hits on this one. Oh I guess Help Me Rhonda is on here. Love & Mercy was sure a good movie. I had no idea Brian Wilson went through so much shit because of his agent dude. That last track was cool. Hearing them talking and eating burgers & fries drinking shakes.
I think this might be like the 3rd Radiohead album I've gotten. I really like this one. Nude is a great track. Weird Fishes is soooooo good!! All I Need is great too. Good album! 4 stars
Oh man! 5 stars. I've probably listened to this album one million two hundred and thirty three thousand two hundred and five times. It's a masterpiece of an album and a landmark of an era, not only in the history of music but in my own history as well. This album came out during my junior year of high school and marked a time in my life of clear division from before and after. I'd just moved back to Utah, living with grandma, trying to find myself in a big city. I felt alone a lot of the time, and this album would most definitely be playing on my walkman on my way to school most mornings. I identified with so many of the songs. His lyrical talent in this album is unparalleled to any of his of his albums. The words are just so beautiful and pefectly poetic. 10 stars if I could for this one. I'm so happy I finally got to see them live this year. It was an amazing show, and it was good being able to share that with my son.
Hm, have no idea what to expect coming into this. Never heard of War. Hm first track is groovy. Def has that early 70's sound. There's some Cuban voices in the mix. That was unexpected. Between the album art and the vibe I wold have said these guys were out of New York but I would have been wrong. They're from the LBC. Ooh this second track is good too. Some good jazzy blues solos in there. Great guitar intro on track 3! Kinda diggin this ngl. 4 stars.
hmmmm this is dangerously too closely related to country which I don't do. But I'm committed and will give it an honest listen. Metal heads famous last words. Thank fuck it's only 32 min long. 32 min too long. Okay thank satan that's over. Need to rinse my ears out now with some Behemoth now.
Hm, per the description they're an industrial band? Okay. That would be wonderful, but the beginning of this first track is not very industrial. When i think Industrial I think KMFDM, NIN, Ministry etc. I do love French music though so even if it's not that kind of Industrial I can still dig it. I love that I can understand some of these lyrics. Thanks Duo Lingo. Their Spotify bio says they were pioneers of Industrial Punk so I'm still holding out for something amazing. Oh snap, nearing the end of this track and it's beginning to show promise. lol. Okay this did become exactly what I wanted it to become. I gotta say this is pretty fucking great. We've all heard industrial German bands like KMFDM, and Ramstein, and you'd expect that from German. But French!? French is the love language. So to hear these dark, growly French lyrics is a new experience for me. Refreshing! Super diggin this. I hear some Nitzerebb influences in here as well as Skinny Puppy. This album quickly climbed to 5 stars!!
Why does this name sound so familiar? I can't think of any songs by them but I must have heard them before because it sounds so familiar. Let's check it out! I'm liking it. Giving me The Cure vibes somehow. I like the slow tempo. I'll give it 3 stars.
alright! Some good ol oldies! I didn't finish listening to this whole album but from what I heard, it was a solid album representing some good ol classic oldies.
Oh wow. What an iconic album. I've never heard it from start to finish so this will be a "treat". Get it? cause cake... stupid dad joke. lol looking over the tracks on this album, I only recognize You Can't Always Get What You Want by name. The choir in the beginning of You Can't Always Get What You Want reminds me of Empire of the Sun with Christian Bale, when he was just a boy. Anyways, that was the one and only track on there that I like. I enjoyed the album but still only a 3.
The 60's were such an iconic time in music history. Interesting how a decade can shape an entire genre of music. Would have been a great time to be alive. Expecting to Fly is pretty. i'm actually enjoying this album more than yesterdays Rolling Stones 👀 I like how there are stark contrasts from one song to the next. Sometimes an album can seem too monotonous. This one called Good Time Boy has a distinct blues funk sound to it. The vocals is a different guy too. So it breaks up the album. I'm liking this so far though. 4 Stars.
Don't what to expect here... Sounds like experimental guitar. Some Senegalese singing. Hmmm... We'll see how long I can last with this one. At times it reminds me of this song from The Natural Born Killers. Taboo. Yeah couldn't hang. Sorry Baaba and Mansour
92' electronic. okay. I know John super loves this band. I'm familiar with them but haven't ever really listened to them much. So far it's been nice background music. Track 4 just started. Ageispolis. It's the tune that Die Antwoord stole for their Ugly Boy song. Meh, it was okay. I'll give it a 3
Didn't get a chance to listen to this on Friday. So listening now. oooooh I like it! I this guys voice. And the style is just so soul! I love it! Had to play If You Need Me a couple times. Make that 3 times. I'm going to add that to my karaoke list. In fact I should expand my voice styles. I'll be looking into doing more mo town type songs. This was a great album!!
Hm never heard of these guys before. Let's see what they're all about. Dig it so far! Has almost a Joy Division sound as far as the music goes but mixed with the voices it gives it a modern day sound like Dope Lemon. Okay the second track does sound more 80s. HA! Elizabeth My Dear was to the tune of Scarborough Fair. This has been an interesting listen. I like the variety of sounds from one song to the next. This Is the One has a good intro. 4 stars
Never really got into Elton John. I mean I like the songs I do know of his, just don't ever really actively seek him out. This first track is 11 minutes long. It's called a funeral for a friend. Sounds cool. wow, 1973! Bennie And The Jets is on this album. Nice. The song Goodbye Yellow Brick Road just came on. I love this song. I never realized it was Elton John though WTF?! lol. It was aight. I give it 3 stars.
Today is a dark cloudy rainy day, and this album fits the vibe just right. I've heard of Bryan Adams but not Ryan Adams. Didn't know what kind of music it was. It's a little close to country but not quite. I like the acoustic guitar sound throughout. It's kinda depressing. hahaha Don't think I would ever revisit this. 2 stars.
Frank Zappa is the frontman of this band? I thought I recognized that stache! lol "a satirical expression of his perception of American pop culture and the nascent freak scene of Los Angeles" didn't listen to the whole thing but from what I heard. it's not my fav.
This album was quite revolutionary. The track "Fuck tha Police" drew an FBI agent's warning letter, which aided N.W.A's notoriety, with N.W.A calling itself "the world's most dangerous group." LOL. I used to not like rap very much. I totally blame being raised in such a prominent white area with SOOO much racism. But over the last decade or so I have learned to appreciate SOME. I listened to Eminem yesterday on my bike ride. That mother fucker is hella talented!! The movie that came out in 2015 about this album gave me a lot more insight into the history of this album. In spite of all the hype around this I'm only feeling 2 stars. Okay there were a few good songs there towards the end. I got a giggle out of the last track A Bitch Iz A Bitch LOL 3 stars then.
hmmm another Elton John... Awwwe this is the album that has Tiny Dancer. Always reminds me of Almost Famous. I know he was a huge deal, but I'm just not feeling it. I liked the first and last track. 2 stars
Hm, never really gave these guys a fair chance. And I think i've only ever heard what they play on the radio. This first track, Time To Pretend, I never really listened to words before. I love the lyrics in this track!! Especially "I'll miss the playgrounds And the animals and digging up worms" that seems to capture the carefree childhood in a nutshell. Meh, the album was alright. 3 stars I guess. and that's being generous.
I like this album. The lyrics are silly and the music is chill and all different one to the other. The track that's titled the same as the album is really good. Her name is Yoshimi, she's a black belt in karate. Working for the city she has to discipline her body.. I like the dreamlike vibe this track has. In The Morning of the Magicians. "As the dawn began to break I had to surrender. The universe will have its way. Too powerful to master." this album has been like a magical trip through some fantastic world of theirs. Dream like, ethereal, and visionary. 4 stars!
Was gonna say I don't know any Billy Joes songs. But the first track on this album is Movin Out. Had no idea that was him. Oh yeah Just the Way You Are. Only the Good Die Young. I know this one too. Whaaaa She's Always a Woman... wow I guess I do know some Billy Joel...
Wow if this was not a trip down memory lane. Right to the turn of the millennium. Gotta love Linkin Park.
1994, the year right before I moved here again from Montana. What an awkward time of my life that was. Creep was definitely still playing on the radio when I came in 95. I almost died that year. Tried killing myself by jumping out in front a car one morning on my way to school. It was still dark, but I remember it so vividly. I tried so hard to time it just right, and then was even more depressed to know that I couldn't even kill myself right. Looking back now, I'm glad I didn't succeed. I'm grateful for every day I wake up to a new sunrise. I'm grateful for every experience I've had since then. All the good the bad and the ugly. Teenagers are so stupid. lol
What a great album this is. I'm already rating it a 5 because I've heard it many a times before. Paranoid Android is so cool. The progression of the humming part is great. Subterranean Homesick Alien is great too. whoa can't believe I spelled that word right. Subterranean. lol They're all great. Exit Music (For a Film) is amazing! Yep just as amazing as all the other times I've listened to it. 5 stars
WOW! 2 back to back 5 stars albums?? Can't say enough of this album. 1995 was an epic year. And of course I can't ever hear this without thinking of Amanda. Those were the golden years. So many memories come flooding back of those day when I hear this. Hard to believe it's already been 28yrs!!
1969 What an amazing year. Could you imagine being at Woodstock!? Never heard of these guys. LMAO! The second track is titled, "Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitney" That track was actually pretty cool. They do these vocals that sound like a harmonica or kazoo. Lot of funk and soul to this album. Oh shit! Everyday People. I've definitely heard this song before. I'll give this 3 stars. Didn't hate, didn't love it.
Sheeeeeeeeeeeit!! 5 Stars baby without a doubt! LOVE Led Zeppelin! This was the second LZ album I owned. This one was a CD Got it while I was living with Brock and Matt. Actually maybe I had it before then. The first one was when I was a kid! It was a cassette It was Led Zeppelin IV. I remember driving around Pinesdale jammin to Stairway to Heaven. Good shit man. Arturo was just a little boy, I remember getting him to sing along :) Babe I'm Gonna Leave You is such a beautiful song the guitar the lyrics. Such an incredible band. The fucking troves of treasure they left the masses, is unparalleled. Oh man at the end of You Shook Me when Robert Plant and Jimmy Page go back and forth with vocals and guitar, echoing each other. So epic!! John Bonham on Dazed and Confused. His drumming is immaculate! Fuck the blues rock marriage in their style is so fucking awesome! Its a shame this album is only 44 min long. And just like that it's over. 5 stars!!
Never heard of these guys. Hm Scottish electronic duo. Distinctive style of electronica, featuring vintage synthesisers, degraded analogue production, found sounds and samples, and hip hop-inspired rhythms. Could make for some great background music today. I wonder if I'll recognize any of these. i'm digging the dissonance of these tracks. Interesting album art too. A faceless family, in the late 60's. Could possibly be Mt. Fuji. I was wrong. The album cover is a modified version of a family photo taken at Banff Springs in Alberta, Canada. According to Sandison, "If there's sadness in the way we use memory, it's because the time you're focusing on has gone forever… It's a theme we play on a lot, that bittersweet thing where you face up to the fact that certain chapters of your life are just Polaroids now."
Didn't have a chance to listen yesterday. So I'll go through a few songs this morning. Sweet Emotion is on here. That always reminds me of Dazed and Confused. Oh and Walk This Way.
Tim Buckley, huh? Well let's see what we've got here. Blues-y. Deceiving voice. I like it I'm tempted to give it a 4 but then I'd feel bad giving some of the past albums a 3. I feel like the 70s was a time when a lot of experimental stuff came out and was being explored. This is nothing short of that lol Especially the end of Devil Eyes. lol
oh fuck yeah! Some Jimmy! 5 Stars goes without saying!
Hey, I've been practicing an REM song. Everybody Hurts. It's not a hard song. The only technical part it has is the "Don't throw your hand, oh no" part. Never heard this album before. REM was one of those bands for me that defined the grunge era. There's just a certain sound to them that reminds me of when I was coming into my awareness of music and discovering my own tastes. And to clarify, it's specifically the voice. 3 stars
Oh fuck yeah! I always forget about hole but they too had a very definitive style and sound I mean hell she was Kurt Cobains GF! and I can see her nipples lol. BOOOOOBS! HAHAHA The first track, Celebrity Skin I've definitely heard a ton on the radio. 4 stars
This is an interesting band. Super funky and the album art is hilarious. Yo what the fuck they have a track on here called Renegades of Funk. Did Beastie Boys cover this track?? I thought that was their own original song. Well half way through that track now and I don't think it's anything like the beastie boys song. HAHAHA I'm retarded I meant Rage Against the Machine this whole time. lol Who You Funkin With. I like that title.
PJ Harvey hold one of those special places in my heart that reminds me of the peak of grunge. I love how her voice music has that sinister vibe to it. Dark and Evil. There's also some Patti Smith vibes in her style. Oh cool one of their songs features Thom Yorke. This Mess We're In. That was good. I guess I'll give it 4 stars.
Hm, I thought this would be like oldies type music. I think I confused him with someone else. I like this though. Short songs! 13 tracks and only 36 min long. I've really enjoyed the simple genuine rock an roll of this album! Lead guitar, bass, drums, and vocals! Just pure organic music. 4 stars
Oh fuck yeah! I didn't realize this album had so many hits. I never heard the whole thing through. I'm diggin it. I've kind of been distracted with work and paying bills and updating my budget spreadsheet so I haven't been 100% tuned in. But I've looked over to Spotify to see what the name of songs have been when something catches my attention. I recognized Wave of Mutilation, Here Comes Your Man, and Monkey Gone to Heaven so far. 5 stars
Not sure what to expect here, never heard of them. They sound like Oasis. There were several great songs here. I really enjoyed the slow acoustic melancholy vibe this album had. 4 stars.
What is this shit? A play? it's been a little funky I don't know what to really think about it. I like that it's so unique. Almoost experimenta.. I like the variety of instruments. the lyrics are definitely unique as well. Almost kind of eerie in a way. Reminds me of Mealoaf a bit. I'm not thinking this deserves more than 3 stars.
I could use some latino rap today. Sure. 1991, damn I was only 12. I'm really liking this album actually. I only ever listened to Black Sunday. I like it for all the spanish references and latino rappers :P Loved it. 4 stars
I didn't get around to listening to this Friday, so I'll put it on now. Oh man I imediately fell in love with I'll Hold You In My Heart. Man I like this album. I love his voice, and the lyrics of loss and heart ache and love.. OH! In The Ghetto is on this album. I guess I have also heard Suspicious Minds. What a great album. Almost cried several times.
whoa 2hrs! okay...Oh shit My Sweet Lord I know this one. Didn't know it was him. I've heard What Is Life. I always thought it was the Beatles. It was good, a little long and all too similar. Got halfway through the second disc. 3 stars.
Meh, I mean who doesn't like to listen to Born in the USA on Fourth of July, but the rest of the album, was too country sounding for me. Dancing in the Dark and I'm on Fire were the only 2 other songs on there that I'd heard. 2 stars.
This album was great! Love punk!
This was a wonderful album to have as background music. The title fits it perfectly! I could see this playing in a soundtrack to a movie with lots of rain and break up.
I wasn't really into TBB back in the day but over the years. I've really grown to like them. This album is pretty fucking dope!
OMG I can't tell you how many times I've listened to Shine on You Crazy Diamond. It was basically my go to when I would feel too crazy and thinking way too much. It would help to hone me in for a while. even if just for a few minutes. There was peace. However, I don't think I've listened to the whole album. Oh, just kidding I totally have. What a masterpiece of a song though. The way it eases into it so mystically and then the progression and buildup. It's incredible!! 5 stars!!
I like this oldies Soul sound... Never heard of him before though. Maybe I'll recognize some of the songs. Wow according to the wiki, he was a big influence on Elvis and the Beetles! There were 6 tracks not available on Spotify but I'm going to find them on YouTube. I liked it. What a time for music. 5 stars
The album consists of four compositions created by layering tape loops of differing lengths, and was designed to be continuously looped as a sound installation, with the intent of defusing the tense, anxious atmosphere of an airport terminal. Interesting. Could be some good background music for today then. Well it's definitely an Ambient sound. It's very peaceful and relaxing.
Tapestry has been certified 14× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America in the US, and has sold an estimated 25 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time. DAMN! I like the picture on the album cover. Seeing pictures of the 70s makes me think that that's the time my mom and dad were probably dating. Simpler times. When connections with people were done in analog. lol. I wonder if I'll know any of the songs on this album. Oh sure enough! So Far Away. It's too Late! Of course...You've Got a Friend...Will You Love Me Tomorrow..Marisol sings this sometimes but I think it might be a cover that she sings. You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman too? Damn! I can see why this album got so much hype.I wouldn't seek this out on my own. I can only give it a 3 though
OH Shit, not a single bad track on this album. Can't say enough about how much I love this album. Either way 5 stars!
