Sisters Of Mercy
2/5
Pixies obviously ripped off the third track on this (Lucretia My Reflection AKA a Pretentious Erection) for their Doolittle track Tame. I could picture the singer singing these songs in his bedroom wearing a cape while mashing the drum machine buttons. Turning around and hissing when he hears his parents calling him down for dinner. Baby, when I tell you I hated this one ya gotta believe me.

Moonshake is the kind of song that, if you’re listening on headphones and aren’t careful, you will find yourself dancing without abandon to in public. It will be hard to find an album with more invigorating drumming on this list.

As a member of the league of bald headed men I can’t give this any lower than a 5.

The Only Ones
5/5
One of the charms of this endeavor is to have never heard of an artist or record and to find something new to love. More often than not, out of 1001 albums, the discoveries tend to be of new things to hate. This is not one of those days.

2/5
They say that if you hit play at the right moment, this album syncs up perfectly with watching dog piss dry on cold cement. I am 10 albums behind because it took me seven days to listen to these two hours.
