Basket of Light
Pentangle
5/5
I think I got this album on the perfect day. Something about this just clicked and now I might be a little bit obsessed with it.

I really did try to make my mind a blank slate, erase everything I know about this turd, and try to find something to enjoy in this, but I failed. It's just not good. The lyrics, the vocal performance, the music itself, none of it works for me. It just feels extremely uninspired, lazy, and hollow (which is kind of incredible considering how much this dude talks about eating shrooms). I can't even lean on nostalgia for this one despite being a youngster when this album came out. If Picture with Sheryl Crow was on this album it would maybe get a 2, as that's the only Kid Rock song I can recall ever enjoying. A smidgen of sincerity goes a long way. Also, this being classified solely as "metal" is offensive. I did crack a smile once during this album, and that was in Where U at Rock where his little voice goes from left ear to right ear saying "over here," "over there." That shit was funny.

Animal Collective
5/5
Gosh, I'm having a nice slew of some of the keystone albums of my youth lately. I absolutely love Animal Collective, this album is just incredible. In the Flowers is one of my all time favorite songs. I'll never forget the first time I heard it. When that climax hit, I swear I went to outer space. So many undulating layers in this song that just make you feel like you're floating in water, then you get that masterfully crafted climax. I've heard this song so many damn times but it still gives me chills every time I hear it. The way the synth and percussion play together in this bit just gets me every time. Then it just kind of trickles away and transitions into the immaculate layering of vocals and synths in My Girls (which has an amazing music video that I always seem to play it in my mind when I hear the song). And then it just continues on this way for the rest of the album, it just onto the next and the next like water and it's all wonderful. Also I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the absolutely perfect album art. Such a special album that will always make me think of my freshman year of college. From beginning to end, this album is such an incredibly fun journey. Still on my bucket list to see these guys live, the stars just haven't aligned for me in that regard. Gotta hold out hope for that 20 year MPP anniversary which will be here before we know it. And my brain just wobbled after typing that, how has it already been 15 years since this came out, what on earth??
