One Nation Under A Groove
FunkadelicUsual P Funk goodness.
Usual P Funk goodness.
The Boss has got some good tracks.
Has some weird filler tracks, but still some decent tunes nonetheless.
Great album. Terrible stereo mix.
Amazing stuff.
More of an album that's got the strong stuff in the front, but still some decent tracks nonetheless.
For my first Neil Young album, it certainly is Something.
Some alright soul tracks.
Definitely in my ballpark.
Classic.
Coldplay beat the sophomore slump.
A pioneering classic in the burgeoning electronic genre
more of a 3.5/5 for the slow start, but still a decent album nonetheless.
An excellent debut.
One of The Albums of all time.
Way too long, but still some good DnB.
For my first Björk album, this is certainly a good way to introduce her musical style.
A pioneer of the hip-hop genre.
A wonderful transition from Eno's early work to his ambient pieces.
Has some good tracks, but otherwise kinda just in one ear and out the other.
A classic. Simple as can be.
Some good moments, but Christ, you could've cut off a few minutes, huh?
Good ass funk.
A stellar debut. Some tracks could've gone a bit shorter, but they still kick ass regardless.
Prince never fails to deliver banger after banger.
All my homies love Thundercat.
This kind of album just appeals to me, y'know?
It's the type of album that just makes you feel like you're in a specific place, taking the sites in and seeing what it has in store. It is some Good Stuff. (also Thom Yorke jumpscare on track 7 lmao)
It's alright. Really don't have anything else to put here.
Songs can be a bit samey at times, but it has heart, so i'll give it a pass. Shame about the shit 60's stereo mix, though.
A delightful collection of solo music from a key Beach Boys member.
Good background music, at least.
Goddamn, this is a good album. I'd only listened to Ghost Town and A Message To You, Rudy before this, and I gotta say I've really been sleeping on this group.
Certainly has dated production, but it still is some pretty decent pop tunes, nonetheless. And to think this dude, was part of the group that made Metal Box. A deserved glowup.
I almost cried to Where Did You Sleep Last Night. Fucking incredible.
Some standard, but good country. Love the harmony of the trio, though.
The Stones almost never disappoint, and this album is no exception.
Say something once, why say it again? Talking Heads at their simplest, but it still kicks as much ass as their later discography.
As someone who only listened to the singles from this album, the album-only tracks certainly surprised me while listening to it.
Never listened to much trip hop before, but I get why people like this. Nice vocals, varied beats, and a general chill vibe make this album a good time.
Some decent DnB. At least it's more coherent than Logical Progression.
Different from the albums most people know from the Beastie Boys, but it's another killer album from the trio.
Bob Dylan is a master of folk, whether that be acoustic or electric (Judas!).
Definitely one of the albums that was affected by the mindset of "Look how much space there is on a CD! We should use as much of it as we can!" and not realize that it just bloats out the record. There's some good tracks on here (Drive You Home), but otherwise it just sort of meanders around due to said bloating.
A high-energy burst of chunky guitar riffs, punk sensibilities, and the future sound of the Grunge scene starting to blossom make this EP and other bonus tracks a headbanging good time.
A nice, simple, and groovy collection of pop tunes that have some lovely vocals. Short, but oh so sweet.
A haunting collection of songs that tell the tale of a man who knows his end is soon.
A highly energetic and funky slice of the late 80s to early 90s Madchester scene.
Simply beautiful, especially Videotape. I do like OK Computer more, but this is certainly a close second.
Pretty much good all around, except for Mother, which gave me a chuckle thanks to the vocals.
Certainly more than what I was thinking this album was going to be. A nice guitar-based sound that has some neat surprises thrown in from time to time. While it does have the same problem as The Verve album with its nearly hour-long length, it's less of a slog here then on that album.
A quick 30ish minute burst of punk and synth-fueled tracks that give the concept of De-Evolution a sound. Great stuff.
The vocal harmonies the duo give are simply legendary. The slight jabs at Bob Dylan and the news certainly give this album a bit of a cynical edge, but it's mostly a quaint little slice of folk.
Has some highlights, but other just standard folk.
I dig this album HARD. Nice chunky guitar riffs and the vocals give this album a great mix of blues and garage rock influence.
New wave punk at its finest.
W H Y
An awesome slice of 80s synthpop. Listen is a definite highlight.
I can see how this influenced The Flaming Lips when they were making The Soft Bulletin. Simply beautiful production. The last track being a jam certainly helps this album out, also.
Listening to this just makes me want more of Bowie doing soul. Great mix, too.
Not really much to say. Just some nice country-infused pop tunes.
Wasn't expecting much when I put this on, but WOW, did it ever blow me away. The music here is simply immaculate, especially The Grave and the Constant. 50 minutes never flew by so fast.
Certainly an important milestone in 80s post punk, but it's mostly just decent all around.
I liked this more than Stand. Just some nice funk all around.
Amazing album.
Just some good ass hip-hop from Missy and the various guest artists she brought together.
Hell of a lot better than Maxinquaye. The reduced length helps, not to mention those sick beats they got going. I'd give that a 3 now in comparison to this gem.
A killer followup to Bringing It All Back Home that expands on the electric sound introduced in that album.
While the sound can be a bit sparse at places, this still is a decent album, nonetheless. I can totally see why goth kids love this group.
It's peak.
Mark Knopfler can do no wrong when it comes to making great tunes.
Psychedelic rock just has a certain energy to it, and this album is no exception.
A classic, through and through.
haha funni weed man :) (But seriously, this is an awesome distillation of what makes reggae such a compelling genre.)
This is just some basic country, with an iffy mix, and a nearly hour-long runtime to boot.
I hate the fact that I like the album this much. FUCK MORRISSEY, ALL MY HOMIES HATE MORRISSEY
Despite the usual 60s habit of not having a great stereo mix, this is a pretty good album because of its surprisingly varied sound for a 60s British pop act.
It has that certain late 80's charm, thanks to the production backing up her great vocals.
A nice and chunky-sounding blues album from the eccentric who went on to make Trout Mask Replica.
Pretty damn good folk for something that was recorded on a reel-to-reel bought for 100 pounds.
Banger after banger. This album flows so well, you would think it's a river.
An overall nice package, reminiscent of the California music scene of the 60s and 70s.
Nile Rodgers is a master of funk, and this album is just another well-crafted example of it.
*THIS REVIEW DOES NOT CONDONE THE RECENT WORDS/ACTIONS OF THE ARTIST GIVEN IN RECENT YEARS* An excellent debut, with great beats, and awesome guest features.
Pretty damn good pop for their debut record. 80's production never sounded so better.
This is a good album, but it's a bit one-sided, considering a bunch of the bigger Bowie songs are on Side 1.
Highly energetic, with a message in the lyrics that still prevails in modern times. Truly ahead of its time.
Just some good ol' Indie with electronic elements.
Man, her voice is good. Plus, the production is pretty good as well.
Like a calm sunny day, this album just a peaceful energy to its' tracklist.
A hectic, but overall nice collection of 80's Alternative. Plus, having Where Is My Mind? certainly helps, too.
While having some bright spots here and there, this just ain't it, chief.
Just a energetic hell of a ride. Some of the best britpop of the 90s.
I really don't have much of anything to say except that this is an excellent bit of 90's Alternative.
Despite its' issues with the loudness clipping and it having the Long CD Album problem of the 90s, this is still peak RHCP.
I went into this expecting it to sound similar to Exodus, but it has more of a energetic sound to it, which barely puts it above the Bob Marley record to me. Plus, it's better mixed, methinks.
For being essentially Bob Dylan's backing band during the late 60s, these are some killer tunes. Love the organ bits on Chest Fever, specifically.
Damn. Symphonic Metal goes Hard.
The Imperial Phase of the Pet Shop Boys was short, but glorious while it was going on.
Asides from Runaway Child, Running Wild, this is just your average Motown Hitsville record with the usual shitty 60s "Stereo" mix.
One of the best damn debuts you'll ever hear.
Good. Ass. Jazz. Nothing much else to say.
IDK if it's just me, but I love these sorts of albums where it's just one man and his instruments. This one gives me the feeling of a private performance in a club where it's just you and some other guests just being mesmerized by the artist.
It may only be ambient, but Eno makes it his own beast.
*THIS REVIEW STILL DOES NOT CONDONE THE RECENT COMMENTS/ACTIONS OF THE ARTIST* The comeback of the decade. Still sounds great after all this time.
Hell of a slice of early Pop Punk. Energetic and lively all the way through.
It's just kind of your standard 80's rock album. Nothing too special.
This album just has an ethereal feeling to it thanks to the lovely Indian microtones present throughout.
Has flavors of generic mid-2010s era radio pop, but the lyrics elevate it to a 4 in my book.
The Hardest Working Man in Show Business can put on one hell of a show.
While having some decent tunes in the back half, some of the tracks just feel like they'd be playing in a crappy Hobby Lobby. It's a low 3.5 for me.
I've heard great things about Fiona, and they are 100% correct. The production is simply sublime, and her voice just radiates this certain warmth to it.
This does not feel like it's from 1981. Its sound feels like its a decade ahead of the curb. Excellent stuff.
Riot GRRRL is a very underappreciated genre.
Despite her recent comments about some topics, this is still a great album.
It's just so good, man. What more is there to say?
Love me some 90s alternative.
A singer gone too soon due to her vices left some wonderful soul-filled tracks behind.
Just a simple but great collection of quick, jazzy love songs that make you want to get up and dance.
The beginning part of the legendary Berlin Trilogy shows off both Bowie and Eno's musical skills to their (at-the-time) peak.
Just kicks all of the ass throughout its runtime. The New Wave Of British Heavy Metal was a gold mine of artists.
Some good tracks, but overall, it's just decent.
What a lovely voice she has. As someone who only knew her from the Pet Shop Boys song she did, it was very interesting to hear her at this point of time.
Kinda standard stuff from these guys, but Waterloo Station definitely elevates this to a 4 for me.
A powerhouse of a debut. Only heard the title track before, so I was expecting similar tracks to that, but the way they have such variety on each of the other tracks was such a pleasent surprise.
Some classic crooning from one of the greats.
A high energy shotgun blast of an album that starts at 10 and never lets up 'til the final track.
