Definitely Maybe

Oasis

3/5

pretty good overall with some great singles. a+ instrumentals. not a shocker that this is one of the things that propelled guitarpop back into UK charts

Gris Gris

Dr. John

3/5

play that new orleans r&b psychedelia fusion white boy

Bridge Over Troubled Water

Simon & Garfunkel

4/5

really is such a great album and a folk rock all time classic

Red Dirt Girl

Emmylou Harris

2/5

beautiful lyrics but ultimately a little boring

Opus Dei

Laibach

3/5

best way i can describe this is that it feels like if an Orc tried making stadium music

Paul's Boutique

Beastie Boys

3/5

1984

Van Halen

4/5

some of the best riffs in history. if any glam metal/hard rock album from this era kicks ass its this

Rings Around The World

Super Furry Animals

1/5

doesn’t incorporate any of its wide array of musical elements in an interesting way at all. pretty underwhelming. feels like it would be the soundtrack to a movie called Mr. Gaborium’s Cannaborium Emporium

Melodrama

Lorde

3/5

My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

2/5

Junkyard

The Birthday Party

3/5

not super familiar with post punk outside the UK but i was fairly surprised that i hadnt heard of this before since i thought it was great. i liked the sketchy tone and lyricism

Teenage Head

Flamin' Groovies

3/5

Homework

Daft Punk

3/5

its just good!

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness

The Smashing Pumpkins

4/5

...And Justice For All

Metallica

3/5

if “we live in a society” was made into an hourlong musical number. like a lot of the riffs and instrumental but its nothing spectacular compared to their earlier work

Superunknown

Soundgarden

2/5

i can appreciate how layered it is but i just couldnt find it that interesting. sounds like something that would play at the salty spitoon

Lady Soul

Aretha Franklin

4/5

Gasoline Alley

Rod Stewart

3/5

Too Rye Ay

Dexys Midnight Runners

5/5

now i can say i know a song that isnt come on eileen and rightfully so because every song from instrumentals to vocals was just great

Chicago Transit Authority

Chicago

3/5

not my favorite jazz rock band in the world but this album deserves some credit. not terrible at all though i thought the first half was stronger than the second

Young Americans

David Bowie

2/5

wasn’t terrible but better left as an experimental phase. naturally what happens when a white boy who only does glam rock tries to dabble in soul r&b

Vanishing Point

Primal Scream

2/5

i thought this was pretty alright. ambience and atmosphere feels coherent for what its going for but i just wasnt hooked

Ritual De Lo Habitual

Jane's Addiction

3/5

i liked how the funk/psychedelic sound in this one. it was relatively fun and pretty solid for a hard rock number. loved the guitar from the solos to the riffs sprinkled throughout

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

1/5

do not understand the hype whatsoever. you see the amount of accolades it has and you expect something a little interesting but it was just so unbelievably stale and mediocre

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below

OutKast

4/5

both albums are incredibly rich every song feels textured rhythmically and it was just really fun overall. one of the best maybe ever

I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You

Aretha Franklin

3/5

although i prefer lady soul cause this ones a little less versatile its still a great collection of songs and you just cant go wrong with aretha

Fuzzy

Grant Lee Buffalo

4/5

i actually ended up liking this more than i thought i would. distortion and tribal drums for a country album made for a really unique alternative sound

Back To Black

Amy Winehouse

5/5

actual genuine masterpiece

Palo Congo

Sabu

4/5

The Libertines

3/5

a little boring although i did enjoy a couple songs

Pictures At An Exhibition

3/5

prog rock is such a funny ass genre

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

2/5

his vocal cadence always reminded me of a child trying to explain his crayon drawing to a group of adults

Common

its just okay

Brothers

The Black Keys

2/5

to quote a tweet by user perma___ben: Thinking about how much I hate the band The Black Keys because they gave us another generation of Rock n Roll guys and all their music is good for is playing during the climax of a Red Lobster commercial when they pour liquid butter over a pile of endless shrimp in slow motion

Highway to Hell

AC/DC

2/5

boring

The La's

2/5

Untitled (Black Is)

SAULT
