Amnesiac

Radiohead

1/5

If 45 minutes of incoherent gibberish, and garbled Melodie’s is you’re forte you’re in luck. The only people who’d find joy in this album are pseudo musical intellectuals, who enjoy the concept of the album because it’s “edgy and experimental.”

Hard Again

Muddy Waters

A great blues album. It’s not overly long but can feel repetitive at times. Overall 4/5

Arrival

ABBA

3/5

It's not my cup of tea, but it's not terrible. I wouldn't listen to the whole album again, but if a song from this album appeared on a playlist and my phone was on the other side of the room, I likely wouldn't get it to skip a it.

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

5/5

First things first, this album was not available on Spotify at the time of listening. That being said I never really listened to Neil Young so this is my first time giving him a chance and wow was I spellbound. Running Dry was one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard, so full of emotion. I thoroughly enjoyed this album and would recommend it to a friend 4.6/5

Gorillaz

3/5

This album was mid all the way through. While there were some standout tracks such as "Clint Eastwood" and "Rock the House" the rest of the songs feel like needless fluff. While this album allowed the Gorillaz to develop into superstars their later work, such as Demon Days, completely outclass this album. In short Gorillaz walked so Demon Days could run. 2.7/5

Sheer Heart Attack

Queen

3/5

I went into this album with very low expectations, as I generally don’t like Queen. I even joked about wanting a “skip button”. However after giving this a good listen, I can confidently say “it’s not bad”

Electric Music For The Mind And Body

Country Joe & The Fish

4/5

Time Out

The Dave Brubeck Quartet

5/5 Amazing Jazz album..

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

3/5

John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band

John Lennon

4/5

Well, well, well. I struggled to rate this album, at first, I gave it a 3 because of Lennon and Ono's pretentiousness. But after listening to a few songs a second time, I can respect the appeal and even find myself enjoying the music. God is the standout song on the album. IF this song wasn't included the album would be a 3/5

2/5

Going into this album, I was excited as I quite like Beck. However, my excitement quickly wained as this album is quite depressing.

MTV Unplugged In New York

Get Rich Or Die Tryin'

50 Cent

4/5

The pinnacle album of early 00s hip hop

Cee-Lo Green... Is The Soul Machine

Cee Lo Green

3/5

This album was full of surprises. Going into this, I only recognized Cee Lo Green from Forget You. To be truthful, I thought he was a one-hit wonder. However, after listening to this album, I learned he wasn't. There were a surprising number of rap songs and a diss track? 3.4/5

Bright Flight

Silver Jews

2/5

Raw Power

The Stooges

3/5

By all means, this album should be a 2/5. However, when considering historical context, it's a begrudging 3. Overall forgettable.

This album would get a higher rating had I not been so overwhelmed by Christmas music. Its a "the best of" Christmas album given on Christmas day, what other rating would be expected?

Rejoicing In The Hands

Devendra Banhart

Wow, what the fuck is this? I could’ve died happy not hearing this one. If I could give this album a 0 I would.
