Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Oct 14 2023

This is one of those albums I've kind of heard already, because it's full of bangers that have appeared *everywhere* over the years. Heard in the order they were designed to, it becomes even more apparent just what a revelation this must have been upon release. The Stones have always been cool to me, and this just cements that coolness even further.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Oct 14 2023

A couple of songs that I never got into, but my goodness, The Beatles in their prime is something to behold.

...And Justice For All by Metallica
Oct 16 2023

Most of the time, I have a difficulty distinguishing where one Metallica song ends and another begins. This is one of those times. It's... fine? I guess.

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Oct 17 2023

It's a solid album, but totally not my thing.

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Oct 18 2023

I had never heard this before, and I can see why it's considered a masterpiece. What an incredible album.

OK by Talvin Singh
Oct 19 2023

Nope, not my thing.

Murmur by R.E.M.
Oct 20 2023

It's nowhere near my favorite R.E.M album, but it's still R.E.M, and that's enough.

Smash by The Offspring
Oct 21 2023

I loved this album as a kid, and listening to it is tied to that youthful nostalgia. It's not as world shaping now as it was back then, but damn if it isn't still one hell of an album.

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
Nov 04 2023

It's loud, and the guitars are blaring, but it's just... too... dad rock for me.

Trans Europe Express by Kraftwerk
Nov 05 2023

It sounds like what I'd imagine the waiting music for a German train line would sound. Not my thing.

Beautiful Freak by Eels
Nov 06 2023

I can hear the 90s and the Jon Brion-y feels, but... it's just not for me.
