The Score by Fugees
Oct 06 2023

Ready or not = Banger Zealots = Banger Killing Me Softly = Banger Lauryn Hill Couldn't Miss back then. 2nd half starting to feel long. Woulda been a 9/10 after 9 songs, lost me by the outro Strong 8/10

Good shit, high quality version of that genre

Paranoid by Black Sabbath

Fuckin' wow. There's a Jazz solo at the end of the album? Easy 5-star

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Oct 12 2023

Turns out I don’t like Jazz…

A lot of catchy songs, but nothing groundbreaking by today's standards. Just a very VERY good rock album.

Certainly a good OST, but for me, lacks substance as a stand-alone project. As an OST: 4/5 For the sake of this website: 2/5 (Dead Bodies almost bumps this to a 3)

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Oct 24 2023

I get it, but I just think we've moved passed this

Kenya by Machito

Jazz, but make it dance! Absolutely love this. It's fun, exciting, bombastic. Never heard this before but think I need this in my collection!

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69) by Ministry
Oct 26 2023

I don't love thrash/industrial metal, but there's elements I really enjoy. It's a fine line to walk for me between unlistenable and absolute banger. A band like Slipknot will make some of my favorite tracks and then half the album is offensive noise. But I think it's that willingness to make something truly "awful" that leads to so many great and memorable tracks. Likewise, this album starts really strong with N.W.O and Just One Fix, before assaulting your ears with TV II then getting into the weird shit (and fun campy Rob Zombie-ish sound with Jesus Built My Hotrod). I want to like this album more but with so much chaos it wears you down, and the back half just starts to feel like a drag.

Permission to Land by The Darkness
Oct 27 2023

I love everything about this band, but I'm not sure this album belongs with some of the others in this list. The hits are FANTASTIC, the nots are just sorta there.

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis
Oct 31 2023

Found this one to be much less offensive than Bitches Brew, though it did ultimately just blend into the background while I worked. As far as jazz albums go this was one of the better I've heard, it's just not the genre for me. Solid 3/5
