I would not recommend trying the first half of this one before you’ve had your coffee. The spacey slow grooves won me over.

Classic tunes. Was every song a single? Almost. 7/11. This means just about any greatest hits will repeat at least half of this one but for a good reason - the songs are great.

Arise
Sepultura
I love the Sisters font. And the Front Line Assembly sounding production and effects, and the initial bits of some tracks.
Otherwise I feel about this like someone else did about Motörhead - most of the actual “songs” sound nearly indistinguishable from each other. Crash crash riff riff solo riff riff riff the end
“Desperate Cry” had a nice Ministry/NWO thing going for a bit, and the acoustic guitar is a welcome relief.

The Psychedelic Furs
I like the Furs. This isn’t my favorite however. Half the songs are good, and half are a bit monotonous or monochromatic sounding.
2.5 stars from me but rounding to 3. Good stuff though when it is good. And not bad when it’s not, just a bit dull now and then.

Musically this was a treat. Unpredictable but smooth and enjoyable.
I’m not used to the shout-style vocals (which aren’t constant), but I liked this. Reminds me of the Doors a little (the keyboards). I can definitely see why Syd Barrett was a fan.

Oof. Love it, but it was one of my Dad’s all-time favorites and I can’t hear it without missing him terribly. Same goes for Vince Guaraldi.
Time Out is timeless & time traveling - Take Five transports me with those drums (oft imitated since) with Dave’s piano starting up, it gives me goosebumps.

It made me feel very drunk, without the hangover. I did break into thirds - about 20 mins at a time is enough Waits to keep me inebriated.
