It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

All Ratings

Exile On Main Street

The Rolling Stones

2/5

I was completely zoned out. None of the songs caught my attention. I am sure this is a classic for a lot of people, it just did not do anything for me.

Dummy

Portishead

4/5

Enjoyed very much. Wouldn't download but would definitely listen to again if ever working on a painting/design/

Bryter Layter

Nick Drake

4/5

Come Away With Me

Norah Jones

3/5

It was cute, not my cup of tea however.

Bossanova

Pixies

4/5

It felt nostalgic in a weird way, until I found out that they were extremely influential and pioneered the alt/rock movement in the 80s. They inspired artists like Nirvana, the Strokes, Weezer, and Radiohead. Would def listen to again but a lil too old sounding for me. I say 4.5 stars really. They have a "loudquietloud" identity to their sound. Thoroughly enjoyed.

The Next Day

David Bowie

2/5

Just not a fan. I always heard knew David Bowie was an icon, but this album did not resonate with me on a first listen. Maybe I need to hear it again, but I won't put myself through that.

The Undertones

3/5

This is how I imagined rock and roll to sound when I was younger. Wouldn't listen to it again on purpose, but liked it more than David Bowie.

Modern Kosmology

Jane Weaver

5/5

Started off strong and felt really inspired/creative. I loved the "spectral" and 80s synth sound but also, with a contemporary vision. I genuinely feel like I can tackle any creative task when listening to this music. This is the first 5/5 on this list!

The Blueprint

JAY Z

4/5

I have never been a Jay Z fan and never really understood the hype. Listening to this album put into perspective why he was so big in the first place. I not into rap or hip hop but even I can see how valuable this album was. I'm sure his albums before this were even better.

Birth Of The Cool

Miles Davis

4/5

This felt nostalgic to me because it made me realize a lot of the 90s-00's cartoons would use jazz in their scores. I was immediately reminded of Tom and Jerry, Seth McFarlane's cartoons, and other Hanna Barbera animations. Obvioulsy, these shows used Jazz for their scores but listening to this album for the first time, felt like I had always known it.

The Fat Of The Land

The Prodigy

3/5

At first, I liked the video gamey sound but then grew tired of it by the middle of the album

It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

Public Enemy

1/5

Respectfully, I hated this.

You're Living All Over Me

Dinosaur Jr.

4/5

I enjoyed this album a lot, some parts were experimental, and I think it paid off.
