1001 Albums Summary

droney. Gotta listen to each song for at least 90 seconds before giving an honest review. First half of the album is significantly better. Throwback 90s bohemia. simple and hypnotic

classic. Good time blues. Great production and arrangement. A little to much so. Vocals a little buried Enjoyed this one better on my second listen Standout tracks for me Uncle Salty Round and Round

peak late 60s psychedelic. Lives in the shadows of pet sounds but not far off great songwriting, maybe an overuse of descending chord structures but it's so effective i don't mind it Standout songs: Beechwood Park I Want Her She Wants Me Time of the Season Whats your name? Whos your daddy? Is he rich like me? Come on.... soo cool

The music on this is an easy five star. Trent is absolutely meant for sound design and soundtracks. I can't stand his voice though. Control is the creepiest song i've ever heard

It's the mothafuckin wall man. why are you reading reviews

OHHHHHH MMAAAAANNN. i really really wanted to give this album a five but it's just 2 songs too long. Honest, pure angst. Clever and edgy without crossing over into cringe. This band is way too good

Mom can we stop on the way home for some Pinkerton? We have Pinkerton at home Pinkerton at home: Meandering and mostly unmemorable songs. late 90s dorm room rock without the hook that the genre is known for (not for lack of trying). The snare sound is an absolute gunshot and objectively well produced yet sticks out like a sore thumb in some songs and pulls me out of the music. Vocals are mixed generously underneath everything, which I understand is a stylistic choice but I believe to be the wrong one for this type of music. Decent enough vocals but just very plain and again, unmemorable. The lead guitarist sounds desperate to be in a hair metal band but is a prisoner of the decade he was born into. The lead guitar however is the saving grace for alot of these songs, great solos and added textures give bland song writing a dash of interesting. The album starts out promising with a promising Hot Snakes type of energy but devolves into a half attempt at the charming, artistic, frat boy style that Weezer has perfected. A couple songs capture this and breathe life into the album but they are too few to keep it from flatlining. A run of three songs near the end of the album are great but tough to get all the way through to. Starts to sound more like a flaming lips record near the end with more complex production elements that lend themselves greatly with the type of quick switch songwriting deployed Standout tracks: Innocent Smile Angel interceptor Lost in You

The easiest 5 star I'll give. Beautiful, inspired, confident, vulnerable, free. This album is a pure gift to music and the world
