Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
Didn't think the first song was going to be a bop instantly, it was catchy, though she repeated the same phrase too much, that low-key made it better. I expect more for the next ones. Also the voice of her is soothing so can't complain about that.
Well the fast cars is also sad in its way, Elton John vibes I must say, again catchy and I would definitely sing along to it. So far so good. Also she really loves repeating the chorus, and I'm here for it.
Third song is literally about the problems of her time, racism and that kind of ugly stuff, love that. Even though the whole album, I think, will sound the same, it is soo listenable(sometimes it's just not for me). Also the song consists of "hook" and "post hook" haven't heard of that, unique for me.
Okayy now domestic violence problem. And it's a cappella, made it better, the silence makes it more tragic to be honest. I was wrong about it having the same vibe, depending on this 4th song. Basically this drastic change was quite pleasant.
Apparently her tone changed in the 5th song, since it's about her lover, and the fact that she wants to be loved some controversies about the lyrics made it more interesting and the fact that she perceives love differently.
Oooh 6th one has a tropical vibe for sure, again wrong about the same vibe I said before. It's also about the philosophical problem, in particular being materialistic isn't the right choice when love exists. Apparently Beatles has a song about the same topic(not surprised). The instrumentals are soo calm and tropical, as I've said already. Hasn't been a song I wouldn't add to liked songs yet.
The feminism/anti racist message is what 7th song is about. Tropical vibe stays, with some new instruments I don't know the names of. But this one is particularly optimistic, as "she's got her ticket" doesn't sound negative, especially in a song (could be wrong). On the other hand, there's this bridge between white and black people so this so called ticket it different for different race, quite sad still.
"Why?" Already says a lot I should say, 8th song is about racism to sum it up. People still starving despite the enough food for them, the "love is hate, war is peace, no is yes and we'll all free" sounds like a powerful message, since it was also slogans from 1984 by George Orwell (that's what genius said). Basically global problems summed up in one song.
I guessed this, and now I'm sure, she had a woman lover, makes this whole experience better I suppose, she was also arrested for it. She's trying to say that being dependent on social ideals is not a way to live a life and I guess one of them includes her being a lesbian, lovely, too lazy to check other deep meanings for now.
Noo the chorus repeating in the 10th song is one of the best, since it makes me sad even more. But I haven't cried to a song yet don't know why I just can't, but I would have definitely if I was emotional enough. Also it has no Meaning written in genius so I took it literally and another reason to be sad apparently.
Last song, the guitar in this one and throughout the album was definitely doing its job pretty well, loved every moment listening to it. The last two songs I think are about her love, she supposedly lost control, thing she didn't think would happen, quite relatable, no longer a master of her emotions she says. Ending quite sad, I still feel like this kind of sadness is caused by something, which I don't know, and I'm lazy to check it
All and all, this was a great experience, couldn't have wished more, and idk if this will be shared to everyone (I only wrote this for me soo). Talking to future me to listen to this whenever feeling philosophical or anti delightful.
Forgot to say, my rating is based on whether I'll listen to it again or not, not how influential or deep the lyrics were, that's not how I listen to music.

Sea Change
Beck
Opening with such a sad song, the headphones were such a help to the different sounds in my ears. Definitely loved this, especially the last lyric, excepted more of badass songs, but this is much better.
He's quite depressed after that breakup, and now me too. He apparently has an addiction, made a Bowie reference, would listen to this 100% when I'm feeling rock-sad. 9 YEAR OLD RELATIONSHIP, not surprised this is sooo melancholic.
In the third song his senses are dulled because of the breakup(metaphorically obvi). And he's been missing opportunities because of the relationship, but I guess he's still young and has time to recover at least. Album has the same vibe, I suppose, quite depressing to sum it up.
4th song has a different chorus apparently, can't wait to hear it. Started with a violin, great. He was raised in a cult and is Searching for some kind of ruin to save himself from the sadness as I got it. Also the chorus had the slight change in the use of the violins, but still one of the best one I've heard from him, because its progressive. Last part is fully instrumental, which is, for me, satisfying. it has a Beatles like ending, weird and unexpectedly iykyk.
5th one is apparently the catchiest(can't agree). It sure is "fun" but I've listened to better ones. He has some kind of ironic comments about the breakup and it low key makes the song less depressing but also more like that so idk.
He's had breakups before but this one really hurt him and he's just stuck, even if he says he's over it, he's not, but he knows he has power to move on(?) I guesss. The guitar part remembers me of devil wears Prada theme song.
He just wanted to be her good friend, well he's through it now(I hope). It was a short and literal meaning song, nothing catchy or classically soo not as special as the next one(I'm getting spooky vibes already)
Apparently 8th song has a nick drake vibe(dunno about him yet). His voice has changed, warmer and more seductive as I've read, agreed. He's almost ready to move on, also he makes an observation about ppl being cruel to eachother. 7th song was quite short compared to this 5 minute songs actually.
Nvm 9th one is shorter. I guess he moved on(not fully) because "already dead to me now" suggests that, otherwise the song was not a special as the other ones, made me feel more bored than sad.
10th song is quite happier, because of the last mentioned lyrics I suppose. I mean this one is a special one, but not amusing, but the little piano track is. Actually this song turned out to be one of the best for me, it really says indie rock in this one.
11th song's chorus is quite rocky, loved that, other than that the bridge was a perfect continuation of the chorus, the verses weren't as much of a "wow" to me. I must say his voice is very satisfying and soothing to listen to, almost makes me sleep, while being low-key seductive as I've already said.

Deep Purple In Rock
Deep Purple
Starting off with some really loud noises, but I can take it. It continues slow, then obviously takes off hard, I love the energy tbh, I would bang my head around with this. And the sounds are different in ears so that's a plus. From my dad's listening knew this would have a lot of instrumentals. Ohh it's progressive too, getting louder with the drums. First song is sooo good, even though I don't listen to that genre much. So many references in the lyrics but no deep meaning(I think)
Second song is also about a longing to make love to a woman. Same energy, the screaming is low key fun. Wow lyrics are already finished, also it says there is a black Sabbath like instrumentals(fun). Apparently this song is about a "bloodsucker" who lies to woman in a way, and they catch up to his antics that's why he screams no a lot.
10 fucking minutes, but it's one of their best song, which is against Vietnam war, and progressive af. I love the instrumentals at the start and then slowly becoming intense. THE VOCALSS, GOTTA LOVE THEM, giving pink Floyd. Little classical parts make it so better. Also it expresses the chaos of that war. THE ORGAN, chefs kiss. Perfect ending, chaotic.
3rd song is about a tyrant leaving, which causes people's happiness. Otherwise there is a great solo, and a show off drums at the end. Amaaazing middle instrumentals, can't wait for the drums. Definitely a show off, my ears loved those drums.
5th song is about not using drugs because they ruin lives. And there is a guitar solo I already love. My ears do hurt a little. Quite a short one, and not as special as the other songs.
6th song is a about a woman who is soo untidy and weird that the witnesser of her almost died of shock apparently, then suggests to change her way of live. Nothing special for now, but I await the organ. I love how each song is about different things and not revolve about one subject like the last two albums. Ooo absolutely devoured with that organ.
Last songg, obviously a long one, expected tbh. Weird and satisfying organ play here already. Starts with a solo. I think this song is about how he's having sex and that he likes it rough(might be totaaaly wrong, but lyrics mean that to me). There was a 112 like sound, eccentric. Nothing remarkable yet. Oh the sound fully stopped and there is some weird guitar sound getting louder for a second in one ear. Also I think there is a fight between Sabbath and purple fans, not that deep into being their fan, but not surprised drama exists.

Wish You Were Here
Pink Floyd
Imma try to talk less about the meaning of the song because writing it here distracts me from listening to the song.
Soo first song is starting off with a melodic guitar intro, expected this from pink. Oo amazing transition to the electric guitar, and drums(I think). Going the same but enjoyable. I must say this song is about Syd which is basically the song's name Shine on You crazy Diamond. Ends quite jazzy.
There was perfect transition between the songs, loved that, also second song is already weirdly good. Also song is basically behind the scenes of music industry.
3rd song has the almost same meaning as I've read, same vibe, almost boring, but fun in a way. Guitar was the main, yet it was satisfactory.
4th one started weird. Going usual with the guitar and the drums, additionally this one's again about Syd but now song grieves his absence.
5th song with only 1 min lyrics is having the same meaning as the last one, but starting off differently. I still think whole album was an intro, a very enjoyable one tho, would rate this 2 because I don't think I'd listen to this again, as it doesn't stand out. Quite unique sounds, but not the vibe I wanted to get.
Overall this was the worst I've listened to so far but I still felt heavenly tbh. Lovee Pink Floyd, but I would only listen to this as a background music.

Get Behind Me Satan
The White Stripes
Album is based on bible, quite a name then. First song is about child abuse and particularly old russian child pornography organisation. I like the sound of the guitar, plus the start was amazing. Nothing unique yet but still.
Second song has a tropical sound and crashes in it, also it's a little progressive when chorus comes, love thaat. Dunno about the meaning. So many weird sounds, like that piano coming and going, guitar crash, and some tropical instrument.
Third song's lyric tempo is so fun, the way he says it fast. Love the piano here, drums are low key annoying (nvm, got a little better). It has a literal meaning I suppose.
4th song nice to hear, piano like instrument plus drums do a good job. It's about a relationship, as the 2nd one.
Well 5th song delivered Appalachian-style tune which sounds so good. And it's about a woman who is quiet like a ghost and the narrator is scared of her, and thinks public will judge him for loving such person, best song so far.
6th song is actuallyyy denial twist. Basically whole song is upbeat and fun, until at the end the narrator realises he's in disillusion and denial, she doesn't actually love him, and he's been reading signs too wrong, loved this song lyrically.
7th song mentions guitar which is named Rita after Hayworth. smn said he sold his soul to devil and found Rita, but Rita doesn't want him because of his money so leaves him? Confuseddd. Pluss song wasn't a standout.
8th song is apparently about sex and how he isn't good at it? Idk seems too simple. Also guitar isss doing her jobbb, loved that at the end. The whole song was a little meh I think.
There is interlude, small one, where the girl sings, love her voice, should be used more.
Well 10th song smn said is about fans taking taking and taking stuff from him(not literally), and acting like he owes them smth, even after they get autograph and a photo. So he's struggling about this matter, whether he should be kind to them unconditionally. Again songs have the same vibe but I do like the way he says take.
11th song is not as good as I thought it would be. Idek the meaning of it, guitar is pleasing but not enough, though drums is a bit amusing, but I'm quite bored.
Now 12th song is special, and the quick tempo change is fun to listen to, also love how he says red rain. Song is about a girl who's hiding herself, not telling the truth(?), one of the best I've listened to.
13th song is quite slow Elton John vibes with the piano. Song is about a relationship again, genius has no specific meaning(annoying). But it is about loneliness and it's results.
There's no more songs(there should be I think) so what I've listened to was very good, but not something I wanted from white stripes, this was better than Floyd, but worse than purple, so 3 stars, but I'd say 2.5.

Doolittle
Pixies
The start of the upbeat alternative vibe is soo iconic, plus his screaming is so satisfying. The guitar and drums are veeery satisfying. Loved this song.
Same vibe but starting soft with the second song, there was a little outbreak, also the "got hips like Cinderella" was said soo weirdly good(in a whisper way). The end with the woman mumbering is quite fun as well. Also loved this. This one's low key better than deep purple I must say.
Third song was fully alternative, and soo perfect I suppose, full of sounds and wanted even more of it, but still love the fact that they're short.
4th song has a weird lyrical delivery, with the man and woman singing together, while rocky instruments are in the way. Also this man can SCREAM.
5th song is one of their popular song, and a great pop song in general too. I get that, because it's so simple and singable,the chord(as genius says) suggests that.
6th song is biblical, as the author says himself. Love how he screams "dead". The chord change must be mentioned, it's so good. Well this genre is generally good, and pixies make it much better too.
7th song has an amazing beat. Also he casually talks at the start, so quite fun. He said that some things don't make sense in the song, maybe used just for the rhyme(he is so main character). Also he's a surrealist so makes sense.
I adore the 8th song's start beat. It got better. Smn said album name was about an animal talker doctor, but another one said WW2 general, soo that's confusing, plus this song is about ecological disaster which the doctor could solve but Mr. Grieves, aka death, would still win(?). Not suree.
9th song is quite short but iconic, because the way he says the name of the song scratches my brain, also apparently it's about his weird gay roommate, who loved Flintstones. Different love for this song.
10th song is NOT about love, despite the lyrics it's a comedic joke type song. I loved that there was different vocals here, pluus the war switching while saying I love you.
11th song is 13 in English alphabet is m so marijuana and he needs that girl like marijuana, not sure about that, but there is a long ass outro, not expected, with Floyd I would take it normally, but pixies. It's quite fun, the guitar outro.
Agaaain 12th song has a wonderful start. I didn't get the meaning somehow. But it was basically a three line poem, which was delivered at it's best.
Umm again 13th song meaning is weird but understandable(not as much). Great way to say "hey". And his screaming is topp. It has a melancholy vibe, especially in the chorus. He's being satirical, and sarcastic and ironic and so more, that's why I need to study this album.
14th song was kind of sad, a west-folk vibe with the instruments. Also there was a woman's vocal again introduced. Liked the beat, nothing unique I should say.
Last song is biblical, about Samson and his wife Delilah, who betrayed and had Samson had his eyes gouged out by idk who. Well there's a lot to the story, too lazy to write them here. Again classic pixies, alternative vibes, saddening guitar beat and so on. I'd say this style fits them, also black said this was the best song on the album.
I'm gonna rate this 4, since it satisfied me soo much, so 5 star would only be for the albums that are literally my style and genre.

Cloud Nine
The Temptations
Love the vibe of the first song already. Very funky indeed. Like that there are different vocals. It was fine, I enjoyed it, just not my genre I guess.
Second song has great background vocals. Also the main singer's voice is remarkable. Eddie has a listenable voice, but Dennis - genre-appropriate.
Third song is 9 minutes? What do they have to say that much. Love the weird start. The deep voice guy should sing more. I love the chaos they create with their voices all together. I feel like the longness of the song is unnecessary, also the cry-singing was not good for my ears.
4th song is sad, was started by the deep voiced guy(not sure), continued with the soft voice one(worst). Album has a beach vibe, makes me relaxed and stuff, but not worth it overall(again not my genre so).
5th song has the same instrumentals in the background, I must say that I love that it's different from the modern bass beats. I haven't mentioned any meanings(i usually do), because there's not much to it, mostly about love, though First song might have been about drugs.
6th has exactly same vibe, Bob Marley vibe actually. Theme is love as I hear it. Nothing unique to me.
7th song and no deep voiced guy, not good. I'm bored, but these are not the songs I should be deep-dive listening to so it's expected, liking the vibe just, it's not it.
8th song has again great background vocals, best part in the song probably.
9th has am amazing start, going basic after. I do not like his voice, can't blame myself.
10th and last song, I have to say I like the way he says "woo". The trumpet is nice to hear also. It's permanent wave, no bridge, no different chorus, or beat change, just the same vibe, I get why people like this but I do not.
Sadly this is my first 1 star album, vibe was okay, but too same, I low-key get why this album is here, it's just not here for me.

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan
I have to say I had doubts about the first song, but at the end I loved it, the instrumental chorus in my left ear is soo fun, plus the way he says the name of the song makes it more fun. This is a historical album so I'm not gonna see the meanings, because I have seen this one's and it was wayy too long, school vibes nuh-uh.
I don't like that whole song sounds the same, second song has no particular uniqueness, oop nevermind that instrument came in, I love this song too. Has a karaoke vibe also. The guitar in my right ear is very fun indeed.
Third song is again karaoke vibed, no weird instrument, which is bad. Quite basic, wouldn't listen to this one again. I do like the lyrics I must say.
4th song speeds up the guitar playing, love that. Nothing else is really different. Just his voice sometimes breaks on purpose.
Finally weird instrument is back in 5th song, love love that.(I just don't know it's name I've heard of before obviously). I like this song just because of the "chaos" that instrument creates.
6th song, again amazing construction of the words, but such a boring song still. And 7 minutes. First time I backgrounded the song in this project.
Magic instrument has lost itself in the 7th song, one thing that keeps me going is getting boring too.
8th song started like Beatles, yet it's another same-sounding uninteresting songg. It has the magnificent instrument, yet I feel like he could do more with that thing. I feel like he is a songwriter, but not a singer. I like folk but I guess not this type of one.
9th one is a short, and it has an unique sound of bob. This is the only song I find interesting in the way he sings it and it's short?! I said this about temptations too, these guys don't know what's actually good, or it's just me.
Back with the lovely instrument in the 10th song, and with the not so good singing, Oxford town had better vocalss. Quite disappointed, but the lyrics are too good to ignore.
11th song has a character I think, it is repetitive but in a good way. Big instrumental break for the magic instrument, he thought of me, what a nice guy.
12th is the first one that starts with that cute instrument. Also it's upbeat?! Could have done this before, but yeah the theme is melancholic. This is what I mean by being different, little "hou hou"s was smth I didn't expect.
Last song is also upbeat, what's happening to you Bob. Worst rhymes I've ever seen. Also this is apparently a rewrote song. I low key like the way he says names, which have connection to eachother obviously, which I don't know.
To sum up, I'll rate this 2, just because of that weird(in a good way) instrument, otherwise this is a 1, I'd never want to listen to this, maybe nostalgia, but I can't listen to this just because it has a big meaning. I feel bad for rating temptations 1 and this 2, they were fun at least.

Nick Of Time
Bonnie Raitt
First song and it's already better than Bob Dylan. It has a good vibe, but nothing special that would make me listen to this again. It was too monotonous, though I like her voice.
Second one is a little upbeat, plus county vibes. I love this for now. It has the best karaoke vibe, guitar getting louder is fun. It has Elton John vibe, and I love it. It is still monotonous, but in a good way. Very simple lyrics also, dunno why this album is here.
Third song has Donna Summer vibe definitely. I wish it was progressive or at least had a proper chorus, otherwise it's great, but I'll get bored of it soon maybe.
4th song is a slow one, so less vibes, and more boring. I liked this the least for now. It's just not it.
Now 5th song is smth I wanted. Piano and guitar, plus upbeat. Weird instrument came in the instrumental break, loved it.
6th song is uninteresting, tooo country for me. Nothing happened really to say, wouldn't listen to that one.
Same thing about 7th song, not unique, no beat, kind of annoyingly slow. Instrumental break has a soft beat, which I surprisingly like.
Hate hate the 8th song, backgrounding it, unless I skip it.
Woow again a bad song, 9th one, literally nothing happens. Why can't artists keep up the goodness. I do like when she says "deadly".
Can't wait to finish this totally boring album. She doesn't even have vocals to make it better.
10th song and literally I'm in pain. I just skipped ahead some parts, and didn't regret at all.
Finallyyy 11th song has a decent beat. I like this kind of songs, more than those slow torture ones. At least she ended the album fine.
Sooo I was gonna rate this 3, but I feel like there's too many flops, so 2 seems like the right choice, even temptations was more funn to listen to, but definitely not better than Floyd.

Since I Left You
The Avalanches
The best start of the album with the first song, vibey, weird noises and instruments. Love itt, also his(?) Voice is fun to listen to, but also not nice. Arcade fire vibes. I feel the 7 samples in this, too many I'd say.
Second song low key continues the first song, but not the violin came, and back into the first song vibes. Little burning
noises in my ears. Also a "club med" sample. LOVING THIS for now. So much chaos( in a good way).
PERFECT TRANSITION INTO THE 3RD SONG. There is weird horse-like sound in the background constantly I like it low-key. Amazing beat. The sounds change each minute I feel like. This couldn't be any better.
AAA AGAIN A TRANSITION THESE BITCHES DO THEIR WORK RIGHT. 4th song, This is so funny, in a such a good way, samples I think at the start. I will definitely check all those samples(I hope) so that I can actually see their origin. THIS IS BY FAR THE MOST INTERESTING ALBUM, for now. Oh, the end is getting louder and better, love iiit.
Again a fucking transition, I'm not even alive at this point, 5th song and I'm more entertained than I've ever been. Oops it was not a song just a 22 second thing, but I loved it still.
Omg 6th song is also a transition. Such weird voice, I adore it. I'm so vibing with this, every second is so worth it, made me day. FRENCH RAP?! CHEF'S KISS. Is it "Jamaica" or "she wicked" hmm.
7th song: Whole album is a one big song I swear. It got loud and fast, not it's opposite, beat stayed though. Progressive I think. It's so catchy, everything about it.
8th song started with woman's talk, now it's some man going right and left in my headphones. Also weird beat instrument giving off tropical vibe. OHH sound changed fully, another sample I guess.
Wtff song changed and I didn't realise for 1 minute, 9th song and they keep up the magnificent work. A little classical violin at the end such an adventure this album is, the beat came in so smoothly. Burning sound is back, aaand gone, and back.
10th song starts operatic, than beat comes in and whohoo. "Rap dirty" "black man" or "Macbeth" hmm again. Ended with an opera woman voice as the start.
11th and apparently 12th songs has an asmr like sound, it continued with a piano, wooow vibe fully changed to jazzy woman voice. Love the piano and the voice, plus the way they switch eachother unexpectedly. Claps at the start and end, and some weird burning noise.
13th song, continued with the last part. Circus voices, batman theme-like sound, motorbike(?), horse, old film playing, beat came in with film playing, horse made a sound and the song started. I feel like this is a good mashup of weird sounds. This song is plunderphonics, because it's fully other songs or films. And it is soo good to hear idk why. The epic instrumental chorus is so great.
14th song starts quite differently, slow and steady. Beats coming in, guitar in the background. Song is about either their past drummer of alcohol aka ethanol (song name basically). This is the most boring song, as it's permanent wave with the same vibe, like exactly same in an annoying way. But I get it in my fashion. I'm still not bored of the song because I know it will transition into the next song.
15th is also too permanent wave, but it has a french woman voice, so better than the last one. Fireworks?! These two last songs really bored me, they're tooo long. Violin at the end, gone sadly.
I missed an interlude "Pablo's cruise" so it's messed up numbering after 12, imma fix it.
16th song was slow but it changed quickly so Arca like sound, now it has rock and roll in the background. Monkey sound, or a parrot. Best opened, glitched, changed, got back. Fun to listen to.
And instantly into the 17th song starting upbeat, then daft punk vibes, BONEY M SAMPLE I LOVE THEM. It changed from boney to something else sample. It got quiet real slow, still same everything though. Oh, now it changed fully to another strut beat. This is a long song but I didn't even notice it. Same violin at the and with the beat.
Going right into the last 18th song, it starts slow, with some french. "and they left us for 16 years" WHY WOULD THEY, I DON'T GET IT. Song is not as interesting as I thought the last one would be. Beat change, feels like new song started.
I'd cry if I could, this was PERFECT. I'm gonna rate this 5 stars, it's my first 5 star album, I would definitely listen to this again, so chaotic, weird and catchy. Despite some floppy songs it was wonderful, didn't expect it to go this hard.

Transformer
Lou Reed
David Bowie should sound good, but I hope it's not too slow, we'll seee.
First song is quite upbeat, going well the best, also lyrics are quite fun to listen to, his voice isn't annoying, but it is quiet. His voice doesn't suit the vibe, but it's not bad so can't complain. Nothing unique.
Second song has a non chorus vibe chorus, second verse started so good. Also smn said lyrics are supposed to be funny. It is too same, and not even upbeat nor slow, just plain permanent wave, low-key uninteresting.
3rd song is good to listen to, but it needs a nice beat drop, the one that would make it epic not sadder, but it is about drugs so I can't expect that. And there was it, a melancholic drop. Smn the song ain't about drugs. Love the piano and the violin.
4th song has a Chuck Berry vibe. Lou is apparently gay, it's going well, but it's too simple and gives off nothing special sadly.
Even though 5th song is slow, the guitar in my right ear makes it a little faster. Creepy vibe from that "doo-doo-doo". I like his voice here the best for now. This has an unique sound, especially at the end the jazzyness.
6th song has a different sound with tha trumphet coming in after each line, but it's still permanent wave. Not bad this one.
7th song piano is Elton cored. The background voices are fun to hear. There was a mouth-organ somewhere. The end is quite different, love that. It has an epic ending, best song for now.
8th song's first line had "smoke, smoke" funn. There was a full beat drop and it got progressive now. This one has 7th song ending, little epicness, nothing's better than the original.
9th song sounds so fun, because of the way piano plays, like a child's song. I'm sorry but this is the best song as it's the most unique and it's the shortest, likeee they really don't know what actually sounds good.
10th song and album sounds a little better. It is painfully same, I feel like I'm listening to a song that will make me go crazy because it's so fucking same. The end tried to make it better, but nothing much.
11th song starts tromboney. It's quite slow with a jazzy vibe. His voice again sounds attractive (same goes with some songs before). Whole album was easy listening, which is good but it doesn't have what I search for in music.
Soo basically it was not a bad one, much better than Bob Marley for example, so because of that it's a 3 star album, not sure if I'll ever listen to it, but the quality have me 3 star, and that's it.

The La's
First song and not a good start. I like the way he says run. Wasn't the vibe and unexpectedly slow.
Second is Slightly better, drums and guitar are actually doing their job, they(or he idk) have a different way of singing, like that. It's not enough for me, I need more of this song, and it just ended ehh.
Weirdly good start of the 3rd song. The guitar is different and love that. Also I didn't see any type of chorus until this song, and not even here it is clear, just permanent wave. Nice instrumental break, best part I suppose. Low key boring, also his voice sounds too basic.
Weird lyrical start of 4th song. Not the vibe here. Guitar sucks. I hear whistles. He said "slave" a lot. It's repetitive at the end as if it wasn't before. This is worse than Bob Marley, because at least Bob was unique in his way.
5th song is their best song as I remember, and it does start pop-py, kind of love it. Nothing dramatically different. 3th one was better than this come onn. Not bad just not enough
6th song not bad, liking the background vibe.
7tb song is quite basic nothing much.
8th song same fucking shit(I'm sleepy and this is better worse and worse)
8th song has different way of instruments and it sang uniquely too.
9th song is very slow but at the end it has a beat I already love. It's monotonous but this is my fav song here.
10th song is not lazy but basic AF.
11th song is slow but it has that interesting melancholic beat which makes me sad. Also it was progressive I think, liked that.
12th song has Celine Dion song's title. the most boring one but also would be good when I'm down.
Quite short 13th song is. Basiiic.
14th song I'm tired and this is not giving me smth to say good.
15th is a live version. Naah nothing much just nice noises they made.
16th song is also nothing to me, another upbeat whohoo song eh.
Anyway 2 star I guess, I slept on it accidentally (then listened again) and I'm not fond of it, it's the first album I rated so short and dumbly, excuse me. It really is nothing to me, that's it.

Such a punky start, first song, it is repetitive but fun to listen to plus full of sounds. It is a great song but if the whole album sounds like that then it's basic.
Second song seems progressive in the chorus. I like the woman's voice, it's rocky man's one is basic and used too much. Third starts a little tropical, though songs doesn't sound the same they have the same beat. It's a little melancholic like bloodhound gang vibe, but if they were slow. It's not full, I feel I'm listening from a distance. It also sounds toooo long.
4th is fun, but yet again it's too common for that song to be played like that, even instrumental break isn't interesting. I don't get the hype for now
There should be more woman vocals, as it's rare in the ones I've listened to 5th song has it . They mentioned Madonna that's a plus point for them. Nothing much here.
Every song sounds the same, 6th song has constant guitar and drums, but it's not Interpol so they don't do their job, also the way they sing isn't unique, just plain roxj/punk singing, which is fine but not enough for me.
7th song and can't wait to be done with this album, it's a 2 star for now. I like that both of them sing together. Why the songs sound way longer than just 3 minute, because it's boring I suppose.
8th I get that it's one album but they don't know other chords?! Girl singing, way better and listenable. Girl is dominant in the voices in this song, kinda prefer this. Basically every chorus was the louder version of the verses, not a good way to show them. They ain't catchy, just not as bad to hate them.
9th song bad a Rammstein start. I really do love that there's both genders singing. They are not bad at all just too same vibe in the songs yk. Also this song was sampled by red hot chilli peppers.
10th song, it has a country/blues vibe. I would quick jump to this, but it's not giving karaoke so badd. I didn't even check the meanings, but I get why this sounded important back then.
11 song is an interlude and too short to make a comment about it. Kinda same with 12th song but this one and a character. Aand last song is also short, with the same fucking vibe. Well nice way she sings again, just booring.
Basically I expected more, it's still a 2 star album, nothing more, it's not 1 because the genre is listenable and also girl/boy singing and a little uniqueness in it.

Seventeen Seconds
The Cure
Ooo Interlude start, nice, first one to have experienced after all the albums I've listened to. It's giving some series theme. I love piano and it's well used here I suppose.
What a switch up to the second song, a beat, the guitar, some sound in my left ear. Loving it. it got better as the guitar progressed. I've listened to cure before and the voice isn't unique but it's kind of nostalgic. The guitar in my right ear low key matches the way lyrics are said. Also that guitar is giving melancholic despite it being upbeat. Instrumental break at the end. Not basic, it had a different vibe than what I call boring.
Third song is down tempo (first too but this more). Now this sounds gothic, the way he sings. I love the background singing. Also guitar is louder than the voice. Ohh it evolved, with the drum and piano, it's a little faster. Idk why but this is not boring, even though it's repetitive and monotonous. Needed more lyrics tho, too much pink Floyd.
4th song and smn said it's chilly and I agree, totally would play this while raining (smn said this here already but), it's vibey jn a weird good way. I would never like this instantly, it's a grower.
That 5th song had a loud piano note in my left ear, woke me the fuck up. Whooo I like this beatt, it sounds soo good. Love that each part of my head hears something different. Wow it ended in such a fun way that rabbity beat.
6th song and piano comes in action, gotta love that about them. Oops it's just and interlude, a great one I suppose.
7th song god I love how they just bring in the beat. It started slow and almost annoyingly slow, now it's giving goth. Many people like forest in the reviews, but there were better ones, and will be I believe. Unexpected that the bridge is just "into the trees". I feel like the instrumental switch ups are the best here, it's not guitar in my left ear. Oh wow it was a 6 minute song and the time went by so fast. Recalling my before listened albums they made me sleep.
8th song and I wonder what refrain is, I've met some songs including it and I have no idea what it is. There's not a deep meaning behind these songs as I've read. I mean him singing isn't even as important as the vibe they've created.
I don't know what to say, I'm impressed, 9th song and all of the songs sounded same, but yet they haven't bored me for a second, I just want to keep listening to this same beat songs. Quite a long one, I just saw. This one has a ship honk thing which makes both of my ears vibrate-ish, love that. I want to eat this album ughhh.
10th song and I thought it was gonna be interlude which would last 17 seconds as the title suggests, but that's too little brained. It's just a electric and a normal(?) Guitar, finally beat came in. D
Fuck I'm listening to the album again I slept accidentally. Well last song is quite different and fun, couldn't wish for better.
Basically it was a 5 star album but since it's way slow, nothing unique, not many lyrics, and stuff like that I'm gonna rate it 4, loved it very much though.

Raising Hell
Run-D.M.C.
I've seen this album before, because of the "it's tricky" song.
Actually it started of real good, they rap good In the first song. I like that sound idk how to explain it though. I would go with this easily, that's why I like it. That sound makes it better.
Well the second song is too popular not to know. First time I know a song here actually. It's catchy, the background instrumental makes it better. This is also the one I would be able to rap, which makes it better.
Wow I really like these guys' vibe. They rap soo smoothly and differently. Third song and it's entertaining as fuck. I like that there is some instrumentals in it to make it sound rich, and they did right.
I have 4th song in my liked songs playlist, but I doubt if I have ever listened to it. Though there's aerosmith in it and makes the song much cooler. Chorus is not a good one. Definitely rock rap was really fun to listen to.
Finally rap came in(or there was and I fell asleep) 5th song and it's kinda slow but i don't mind it. Their voice is naturally unique and they rap with the voice they'd talk which is much better than like drake's one.
6th song this one's annoyingly slow, chorus comes too fast. They finish each others sandwiches, quite fun. One of the worst songs because it got repetitive.
Now 7th song has some energyy, the background instrument is loud and fun, and they play with their voices more.
It's rocky the 8th song too, now there's drums and guitars superior. Ooh the instrumental short break was really good. Well listening to the album is not the best to explore it, because I'm kinda bored with the same vibe.
9th song had a weirdly best start. It's almost same as the other songs, but obviously different instruments. It had a jazzy pre-verse instrument.
10th song is what I expected, I do like the way he says "dumb girl", especially when there's glitchy sound "du-du-dum-dum". Not bad at all, loved it.
11th song is an interlude with the beat boxing, it's different at least.
12th and last song is again same. They changed the beat and the way they rap around it. Well I feel like it's tricky is still the most catchy one, that chorus has everything, other songs are just rap, which ain't bad, just missing smth. This is black anthem in its way, just not a popular song so.
Well the way it started I was gonna rate it 4 stars, but because all the things apparently have a same vibe, I lost interest in it so it's actually 3.5, and I'm not rounding it up, and giving it 3 stars. It was my first hip-hop album here, and I loved it however I expected more bops like "it's tricky".

Fifth Dimension
The Byrds
I'm sorry first ding and I don't like their voice, it is somehow too old. Though I like the folk vibes, plus the different ear sounds. It's too country but not too bad as it's rocky too didn't really like it.
Second song got me in a church. I like the violin in my right ear. This one has nice voice and less countryness. This sounded too good and unique for this album.
Third song goes back to being a country album. It is a story-song, but still lazy to check the meaning. I like the guitar in my right ear, very folk-country.
4th song has a second song sound but the vibe is too upbeat. I am slowly liking this set of instruments played, I mean the way they are introduced (fast).
5th song starts low key melancholic, but still upbeat environment. Nothing different just fun to listen to.
Now 6th song is slow and much better to listen to like the second song. There's drums in my right ear and guitar in the other one.
7th song is progressive plus those solo guitars. It has beach boys vibe sometimes. Not bad, just repetitive. Getting used to their voice.
8th song has a different instrument in my right ear, better. Otherwise he's screaming like Beatles. It's so boring though, I just want to end it now. Can't listen to this for another 8 songs (I think).
9th song has a fully different vibe, it feels like I'm in a movie where I'm moving slowly and elegantly. Country kills me, I can't. It was fully instrumental which made it worse.
10th is quite weird, all of the instruments is in my left year and the voice is in the middle. Right ear is too clean. I feel like my right ear headphone doesn't work but now there's violin playing occasionally. Liked this because it was kinda different.
AAAAA 11TH song has absorbed my right ear with that hoover sound. It's till going, actually it's a racket?! Even metal is less complicated, this is next level of sound fusion, there is a man talking about that racket probably, omg it flew away, such a cool song woww.
12th song, back to original way of sounding the song, it was a loong solo, almost slipped the song. Nothing can top the last song. Booring sadly. Beatles have better sounds overall, but the rocked song here is quite unusual in a good way.
13th song, it is not different at fucking all. Long intro, idk why I'm still listening to it. The fact that they have different sounds in each ear makes this album a standout but eh.
I did numerization wrong somewhere because I should be on 15th rn and it's only 14.
14th song, and agaaain same vibe, same voice, I mean expected but there isn't a anything unique unless we count their church like singing. Also apparently this is just a different version of the song I listened to up there, well it doesn't sound better.
Same with the 15th and last song, sounds almost same just slightly alternative. Well there's two unavailable songs too but by their titles they don't mean a much I thinkk so that's it.
I would normally rate this 1 star because it has nothing that would make me listen to this again, BUT that rocket song will make it to 2 star, also the second and that other song, both slow, will help it get to 2 star album. It was an okay one, easy listening, but that's it. Nothing wow, which was already not expected as it's an old one.

Time Out Of Mind
Bob Dylan
Last bob album sucked ass, because it wasn't my vibe at alll.
First song and already the same vibe. His voice has changed a little, I guess I like it more. It's quite chill now, unless it's progressive. It was definitely not that. As expected I didn't like it.
Ouu second song has a beat now, never had before. Wow it goes like it started, even country is more fun than this. I would like to know why people like this, actually i know why this can be good to listen to, it just makes me feel like I'm wasting time.
Third song, didn't even notice it had changed, I'm not searching meaning of these songs as I'm not at all interested. It's 7 minutes? I'm dead already.
4th song and these songs are not listenable they are to be backgrounded.
5th song just realised I hate this voice. The vibe he creates is fully uninteresting also.
6th song and exactly same situation. He has a more rock sound, but doesn't mean it's better.
7th song, thing is songs aren't even sad, they don't make me sad or depressed, or happy or anything, I'm just like "next", idk might just be me, but I value instrumentals in a song, which bob lacks too much.
8th song has a slight appearance of the instruments, like guitar and a bass? Well at least this one sounds the best.
OMG 9th song I knew by tittle was Adele's, but it was a sample she used of Bob apparently. Well I've said this in a before album listening, this guy can write but not sing, adele has a way of delivering the vocals that are not scratchy but actually pleasing, though some people prefer this, which is no problem. Basically this was the best song because I knew it, just from different voice. Now that I think if Bob's songs were redoed by smn with a nice voice, it would actually sound good. Because I mean Adele has the exactly same vibe, but she has some type of spark too.
For example 9th song, it's not bad, and wow I like it because I imagine it was sang by smn else. Like my perspective changed, I get the Bob Dylan vibe now. I think. Like as I said Adele has same vibe with the instruments, less rock more soul, but still. I now know why I should like this. I didn't except myself to change so quickly I was gonna give this 1 star but maybe 2 or 3 now?! Ohh also Adele has choruses which makes her songs better in a popular sense(I'm not a huge fan of her, she just used Bob's song so just comparing)
Last song and my somehow changed mind likes it. I said this about last Bob's album, this has such a karaoke vibe, it just needs a beat drop and a little baroque pop, would be perfect. Oh what the fuck this is 16 minutes, I don't like it that much. Well whole song was the monotonous same vibe, didn't like it, but it has something.
Soo as I've said because Adele used his sample, I'm rating this 2 instead of 1. Well Adele also made me realise why I should like Bob, so yeah, he's not as bad as he used to be, there's more Bob albums here so awaitingg.

Physical Graffiti
Led Zeppelin
Okayy now Led must be more fun than Bob Dylan.
First song and it's deep purple coded. I must say I love rock and metal generally, though it's not my favourite genre. And Led always delivers it well, it's repetitive and I'm not bored.
Second song and quite a nice start. Guitar solo in my right ear with the drums in the middle. I like full songs and this is one of them. The instruments overplaying on eachother is veery fun, and his voice isn't annoying at all.
Again omfg third song is 11 minutes, pink Floyd who. Loved this, it was energetic, kept me entertained, couldn't have wished for more can't wait for the next song.
4th song is a lot shorter, 4 minutes and so far it's good. I mean I will probably like every song of this album, because I have no problem listening to it, howeverr, I doubt I'd listen to it again much.
5th song exactly same, I wanna listen to this, but no idea if I would do it again. Going well, it's just so good I can't say anything else.
6th song and I've heard their instruments somewhere, I'll check it later. Also 8 minutes and not a sign of boredom.
7th song again fun, I'm just listening to it in background and dunno anything about lyrics, it's just very amusing
8th song is only 2 minutes and it's apparently an interlude, well not a standout definitely.
9th song has a one good part he repeats a lot, but not enough, I didn't like the guitar but it was not horrible. Medium song this was.
10th song is not so different either, I like it tho. The guitar chords are fun to listen to. That's mostly it. It was a long journey it a monotonous one as expected.
11th song, includes type of voice I like, plus the guitar in both of my ears but different sounds they make, is superior.
12th song, I'm kinda tired about me having to say things about each of them, because they have the same good fucking vibe, I just like them, there's nothing else to be said. I liked the endings guitar slamming.
13th also has the good ending and start, the between was quite as the other songs, easy listening for me tbh, also this was metal at the start but now it's kinda nott.
14th song starts slow and is slow apparently. It has a beat afterwards, guitar in my right ear and left one too, just a little different.
15th song was also good though I was half asleep. This is the only song I don't remember much, and the only one I haven't rated while listening to the album.
Basically, it was really nice the deep purple vibes got me. Wouldn't really listen to this so I'd say 3 stars, but if I rated it as how good it was it would have been 4 probably.

Your Arsenal
Morrissey
Well I think most of the songs are not available in my country, butt I will still listen to the songs anyhow.
First song is available, starting off quite metally. I like his voice already, he's in Smiths soo. The guitar play is so good, it's dramatically unique. I always liked these kind of songs and they're just addictive.
Same with the 2nd song, it's just too good to be bored of or smth. This song is also available. This one doesn't have anything particularly unique, but it sounds rich so it's enough. There was a shift in the song I even thought different song started. Loved that, there is a fake ending part too, it continuef with the same vibe after it with some of his talking. Ppl dislike him, but his music is quite good.
And here goes the live versions of the song as original isn't available. 3rd song is less metal, more depressing with a guitar in both ears with different sounds.
I slept and woke up on the last 10th song so I'm gonna listen to it again from the 4th song. Also 10th song is quite same and it's not live version not available in the original album.
4th song is live, quite slow one with hard rock vibes in a way. Whole song sounded like an intro to metal and it was after some minutes it was actually hard metal, liked that.
5th song again live, liking the vibes. The guitar solo, his live voice, and generally song sounds good enough for me.
6th song and its name is low key weirdly accurate idk. It's upbeat and giving highschool musical with that laugh-singing. Still good tho, more than good.
7th song, it was better vibe at the start I think. Not an amusing song sadly, I expect more from him. Though the lyrics is kinda funny.
8th song is glam rock vibe, I like it. The slowness is not my type sometimes but this really devoured it was simple but very nice to hear, loved it.
9th song is live and it starts with applause. This one's also slow, but decent. It's not as good as the last one I believe. Quite short, and fun.
10th and last song, is a little more upbeat, nothing dramatically different from the other upbeat songs. Not bad at all, enjoyable.
Same goes with the whole album, it started of great and most of the songs were bops, others were not as important or interesting to listen to like pixes were for example, that's why 3 stars is what seems to be the right choice.

Every Picture Tells A Story
Rod Stewart
Quite a slow start and it switched real fast with a little jumpscare to his voice, which us a notmal rocky one. Basically first song, guitar in my left year and his voice in the middle-right. Nothing I haven't listened before. I like the piano at the end. Got slow now with some woman's voice mixed too(oops it wasn't the end) but the real end with many voices was quite fun as well.
Second song, smn said lyrics are secondary so I'm not gonna check the meanings. It's a slow song, I agree with that person who said this is headphones album. His voice is actually raspy(I think) and makes it a little better. Still nothing different, but I do like these kind of songs so, it's exceptional in its way.
Third song already country vibes. Now blues. Now it's vice versa, piano and guitar in my left ear plus the bass. There's little guitar chords in my left ear too. And his voice is again in the middle. 6 minutes? And it's already repetitive. It's giving two stars. I like the way he says my mamma. Last two minutes is quiet and only guitar playing. Some women starts singing and ends with it.
4th song was nice, slow and exquisite. But not unique, it made me sleep, and what I remember is that it was too good to hear. Not the best I've listened today.
5th song is more upbeat. Plus this one is globally appraised. It's not horrible, but the monotonous guitar makes me sick. Almost made me sleep. Beat is exactly same, unless I count little changes that last 2 seconds. Even though the instruments changed that bad beat was still present so no to this song.
6th song doesn't have an annoying beat, makes me feel chill actually. There was a stop, I thought the song ended, but now there's this weird instrument playing. There's guitar in my right ear, and smth else in the other ear. I like this about him little chaos he creates. Feels like 3 songs in one, now it's fully upbeat and hard rock not a glam one. Love that.
7th song piano is powerful, it's blues vibe is impeccable. The solos were great and each war was entertained as much as possible, more than good really. But I would not listen to it again.
8th song is fully different, it had instrumentals, the fully quiet times. But it was always slow. A little sad too I suppose. I liked it because it was different and a standout from the other songs. There was a violin used while beat was beating. I'm listening to it now just talking in past for no reason.
To sum up, it was amazing, but only 3 stars seems right. It wasn't as good as pixies or deep purple, so 4 stars is out of question. Otherwise it was pleasing and not boring.

The College Dropout
Kanye West
I know one song of this, Jesus walks, and it's not a bad one. I'm expecting more from him, since this is one of his best albums(so I've heard).
The first song was an intro, weird voice and not literally but still mentioned the album name.
Oh wow second song is so good. It has an RB vibe but better. Oh now rap, it's so smooth, idk how. There is a jazz like sample also. The chorus is veery good. Kids? Chaotic song indeed. The fact that kids sing that drugs part makes it more iconic. Also song meaning is to break through society ideals.
There was two trainsitions already wow. Into the third song, I've heard that voice actually it's a meme I think. The operatic woman voice is idk what it is. Ouuu such beats. I love it. Little classical RB (to me at least).
4th song is also vibey, it's smooth rap again. Like I would rap with him, that kind of vibe. There's an RB woman voice with him rapping (excepted from Kanye). Also I'm not a fan of him(I only know 13 songs of him). Bridge was without the main bass and beat, and it kind of slayed(first time using this word for an album). I like his parts when he sings along with that woman, it's unlike him so.
A transition to the 5th song, a slight one. It's giving temptations, the start(Black men vocalising basically) oops it was an interlude, well it wasn't bad.
6th song(loving it so far). The rap is less smooth but still a good one. There's vocalising in the background and woman singing after that. Kanye isn't rapping for now I think. The other two did a satisfying job at rapping I must say. I quite loved it, the gospel made it better too.
7th song, the one I know, it's giving him I think. I love the way that woman says "jesus walk". There's black woman vocalisation along with Kanye rapping, perfectt. This was as good as expected.
8th song and JAY Z. also there's ivy I sense she's an RB singer. Jay started the rap. Kanye has a better style of rapping I think, jay has a voice that I can't find nice to hear. Greaat, going well, it changed the vibe twice I think, the bridge and stuff.
9th song has an classic hip hop vibe. No samples or added voices just plain rapping. That woman's short rapp was very good. Not the other guy's one. It was low key monotonous but not bad. 10th song is mean girls talking smth, nothing much.
11th song has a Latino piano vibe. I love it. The violin, the beat. I like the little epicness in this song. Kanye has some fun rhymes too btw. The woman voice comes and praises Kanye. Same with another woman. I am liking this more and more. The mean girls continue talking in this song, not mean girls apparently. The best changed fully. I love the last part of the song. The end sample is so out of place.
12th song Starts with the talking then comes RB's girl vibe. That Michael Jackson joke was funny. It's chill for a too long time. I liked that rap tho. Ohh Twista came in fasst. I love him for that verse. I don't like the chorus. Basically the ending is boring.
13th song, I rap along with him, it's so fun. Ludacris has an amazing hook. Kanye's verses are good but not as catchy. I liked this because of the overall catchyness.
14th song, it's an interlude, he's talking. Great transition to the 15th song, which has a sample instantly going on and his rap which I low key already like. I didn't like this one as much as the other ones, it was too repetitive I think, but the lyrics were interesting somehow. 16th song is the continuation, a motivational message is what I'm hearing. WAIT, 17TH SONG IS THE PERSPECTIVE OF THAT MEN'S CHILD, oh a father trauma continued and he also wanted to become a nerd basically, I think Kanye is showing us why dropping from college is a valid idea? Idk seems like it, I love this skit quite a lot, it's unique.
18th song, it's nothing different, I don't catch the lyrics to be about what was a problem in the last three song. But there is the vibe in the room with us. He says two words and actually says two words after it, fun. The choir makes it better, little more dramatic. There is some instrument at the end, it sounds too good.
19th song, it's a vibey song, but not catchy or interesting. He raps in a satisfying way in all the songs, so that's the bare minimum for Kanye now. I want to check the meanings, but I'm too lazy.
20th song, is about his dead cousin(?) for now at least. The children singing is enjoyable in a weird way. He talks about his family basically. It wasn't bad, just not sure what it was exactly.
21th, whaaat 12 minutes? What has he has to say? It was jay z at the start. The song is gonna be about his life story, wow. I'm not gonna write his story here, but it's interesting. It's about him fully and like he has a point, but he's still a bad guy overall from what I've heard so who knows. He said how he used a sample for the first time. He's telling a story of him and jay z, I'm hooked. He wasn't accepted instantly and actually worked for today's title I guess. Not gonna say a lot about this song, but I want to, it was great and too good, I loved that it was storylined.
Basicallyyy Imma rate this 4 stars, it was fun, especially the last song. He raps in a very good way, can't get enough of it, the samples were great. However it's not a 5 star album, because hip hop is not my main genre, plus Kanye is a shady person, also there were some songs that were not as good. Overall I loved it.

The Velvet Underground
The Velvet Underground
Lou reed is here. I listened to his album here, but it didn't hook me, also smn said there isn't the weird experimental vibe (because one member left), so I probably will like this album less. Let's see:
1st song, it's melancholic. It's quite nice to hear. Has a Lana vibe low key. I like his voice here. It's depressing, and I'm not feeling sad so I want it to end as quick as possible, but I do get the vibe. "Do-do-wa"? Umm unique I'd say that it.
2nd song, wow it's upbeat now. Beatles vibe. It's a simple rock song, it's different from the last song but not in the best way. I wanted sad songs to be honest. Solo is flawed. It's permanent wave and I don't like that. Half of the song is just instrumentals as I see(boring, unless it's something unexpected). Wow worst solo I've ever heard.
3rd song, it's not upbeat nor as melancholic as the first song. First song was too good. This one's is not bad, but that guitar isn't doing the job. Makes me want to background the song.
4th song, has a first song vibe, but there's that beat in the right ear. Ohh his voice is much better with the headphones. Well this and the first one slayed. Guitar is indeed crying, much better than in the last song. The instrumental break was good, but that thing that makes the beat is soo annoying. This is the most streamed song, and I get it.
5th song, it's nice like the first song, I prefer this melancholy. That annoying beat is gone. Ooh I loved the chorus vibey part, and the way he said "jesus" after it. Loving it. And it was one of the great I listened from them.
6th is an upbeat one, but surprisingly good. There is weird volume decreases sometimes (hope I'm not causing it). What was that squeakk. The songs are tooo long, 3 minutes would be enough, Beatles knew that. No, this one ain't as good as the slow songs. He makes unique sounds here though, and the end is kinda slay.
7th song, it's slow, good. As always different sound for each ear. The choir is nice to hear. The solo is quite fun to listen to. It was vibey, but not so impressive.
Oh 8th song had a whole different sound, it's very good. It's like clean and makes my ear be full of music. And now this being 2 minute song makes sense, cause I don't need two extra minutes for the exactly same vibe. Solo is basic.
I'm liking 9th song, WHAT 8 minutes? Wow I like the talking, it's different in each ear. Very unique, loving this. Man in right and woman in left ear. Wow this is perfect (for now). Idk what the left talked is saying. Publicly this was a flop, because it's hard to hear what they are saying, while the idea was that the lyrics are rhymey and fun. This is still the best song on the album, if we don't count the slow songs, which devoured. There was a broken piano sound, and not the piano is playing, their voices is different now. Piano is getting angry. Piano is as ruined as possible, wow.
10th song is sang by woman, and it's upbeat way of singing, the overall it's melancholic(the melody). I like her voice more than his. The echoed "hello" was unique. This is second best song for me, not even the first song was this good. She should have led the whole album.
Well, it wasn't as bad as I expected. The last two songs were masterpieces. Other ones, only the slow ones were good, and that one upbeat good song(Forgot the name). I want to rate this 4 stars, for how unique some of the songs were, but the overall vibe was permanent wave, which was mostly boring so for that 3 stars. I repeat 9th song was godlike to me at least because it was so different and nothing I've ever heard before.

Born To Be With You
Dion
Never heard of him, looks like Snape.
First song, starts melancholic, it's a minute instrumental. It's jazzy now. He has a basic voice. Not the vibe yet. I like his use of voice, but it's not necessarily satisfying. The sounds are different in ears, a plus. It's one of those boring slow songs, which you have to know the artist first to actually like the song yk. Nothing was good in this song, sorry, it's easy listening, which means it should be more than just basic.
Second song, again slow, had ABBA vibe for a second. It's annoyingly slow and nothing to have fun with. It has a karaoke vibe though. He has vocals, which I love in songs, but he has to be Whitney to make up for this kind of song. It's permanent wave too, no bridge or chorus, which I can stand when it's like Adele. Long ass outro.
Third song, and it's still slow(no prob with them, I liked velvet underground's slow songs more for example, just Dion isn't good with them). Okaay some slight beat change, still uninteresting sadly.
4th song, the woman choir came in, I liked the violin(not the main part, sad). I skipped it, which I usually never do, it's just totally bad for me.
5th song sound much better, the beat is perfect, as I knew, this song has the most streams, It's the best one I've heard from him so. This one doesn't have a karaoke vibe, and it's not a vocal one. It's so repetitive I get bored half way.
6th song, starting mellow. The Worst vocal start, I mean I expected more. It's not bad, it just gives nothing, a background music one would put somewhere where music is not the main attraction.
7th song, I took off my headphones, not gonna ruin my ears even by 1% by this album. Same sound, same everything, don't even know how to criticise this anymore. And 20 songs? 8 would be enough. This is apparently doo-wop, hate it, at least him.
8th song, finally it's an upbeat one, this is listenable because of the instruments, but it's the same shit still. I'm not his negative about albums, but this really disappointed me.
9th song, this has a rolling stones "let's spend the night together" vibe, it's a sample? Just because of that it's the best song of the album, otherwise it's the worst sample, it's like slowed+reverbed remix, which sucks with most of the songs. The claps are fun.
10th song, also they have no cultural or historical meaning, like Bob Dylan may not be fun, but at least he talked something, also I low key got into him with the last album. He should have made all his songs samples, at least it would be nostalgic in a way.
11th song, I can't even... It just gets worse and worse. I so want to get the vibe, but it's ugh. At least he said "I'm a runway man" in a good way. The only good part basically. Nope.
12th song, weird name. This is torture, it got a little better when best slightly changed, otherwise it's another level of bad, even temptations was better than this.
13th song, my face has an unchanged disappointment, no wonder this was met with indifference I mean..
14th song, why did he keep going?! Background music to sum up. There's nothing to talk about, it's literally same, only lyrics change.
15th song is upbeat, but I'm so disgusted by his voice I don't want to hear it. Why is this album here, the ultimate worst one so far.
16th song, Snape would have a better music career. Lyrics are probably basic too, they're not synced so I don't know exactly. I thought I would like him more because I've been listening to this for a long time, but no, it's still bad.
17th song, much better jazzy start. This has the, if Elton John had the worst vibe ever, vibe. Because he sounds like him, but Elton has spark. Also this genre is full of bands that are plural iykyk. If you like this, Dion is very good at it lol.
18th song, fully different start, and obviously uninteresting lyrical start. This is killing me. So not it.
19th song, I'm gonna cry about how horrible this is. I may not be objective right now, but this is exactly what the other songs sounded like.
20th song, my goodness a last fucking song, if someone is reading this I'm sorry you also had to listen to this album. He "baramaba"-ed the song at the end, not good.
FINALLY, will never listen to this, one less artist to be unaware of though. I forced myself to listen to it, because I thought I would find a gem, I didn't. If it's not obvious enough, I'm gonna rate this 1 star. Just realised you see the rating first, oh well, you know the process too now. Gotta cleanse my ears.

Want Two
Rufus Wainwright
Apparently I know his one song, the one that he has with Florence Welch. This must be good, I like the witchy album cover too.
First song, the Arabic door cracking sound start is unique, but no idea how it will progress. Also the song name is in different language. WOW operatic start. I love his voice. This was used for some film trailer. I love this for now, it's slow vocal Arabic vibed song, heaven indeed. Oh sorry, it may not be Arabic, since the name is in Latin. Violin joined in, love it. I wasn't bored, though it was repetitive (in a good way)
Second song and wtf beat fully changed, it's upbeat. It's still vocalic though, I love his voice I can't. I love the vibe. Ohh this is chamber pop plus melancholic, I am crazy about chamber, they mostly devour so. The fast paced piano, LOVE IT. The beat, his voice(yes mentioned it again), production is veery good for my ears. He also has an album named "want one" I hope I listen to that too, if it has the same vibe even better. Choir came in for a little time. It was quite progressive at the end. Florence + the machine vibes low key.
Third song, so satisfying already. It's slow with a guitar going in the background, simple but great. There is woman voice harmonizing with him. Beat progressed. Piano in my left ear softly. The instrumental break is witchy AF. He vocals every second and I love it. Such melancholia and chilliness. Just magnificent.
4th song, royal vibes with the violin and piano. The instrumental break is very classical, and I'm quite fond of that. He fast talks in some parts, which makes it much better. Instruments dropped, it's clean now, with piano softly playing, he vocals again, then beat increases and ends the song so well.
5th song, such fun I didn't expect I would have with this album. His voice is soothing. Omg the lyrics are about an art teacher whose works are so good that the students is amazed by it, but can't tell the teacher. It's about a school girl, who married another guy, but still loves this art teacher (might also be Rufus's gay attraction). Very beautiful song. Also the clapping and cheering at the end transitioned into the...
6th song, I heard homosexuals, have never heard that word in a song now that I think of it. There's piano and another instrument playing, now choir came in. It wasn't a stand out since it was a short song, but I loved it still.
7th song, has a different vibe, the piano plays better notes. It's more sad too. Violin came in now. It's about an unreachable love affair, I think. The overall opera vibe is so good.
8th song, he counted in my ears?! Hello, that was kinda hot(I'm bi so one of the reasons I like this album I guess) "He will then be reborn from 1970's porn" umm. Oh apparently that's nothing, I just read the genius meaning and he's so gay, he mixed Christianity and gayness. He said "coming" and there was a slight slurping sound, oh my god. I love him even more. Also he said he will be baptized in "cum" as jesus did with the spirit. The bridge is very good with that woman choir. And now he will give an oral to someone, didn't expect this from him tbh. One of the best because of the lyrics.
9th song, now he used mythology to compare his relationship to the guy that died, which he hated, but is still sad about his death. It has slight violins in the background, his voice so fine. He has a popularized song "hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen(I love him) and he mentioned it here. I love the instrumental break, it's only piano yet it has a spark in it, it's progressing with the fast paced piano and violin. Fuck it hit the high note and scared me.
10th song, violin starts, his voice is different here, it has an auto tune vibe, and now not. It's both of them, one after eachother. Literally, he does two voice types, wow, unique. The unexpected slash sound. Choir voices came back.
11th song, starting with catchy lyrics sung by a woman, oh Rufus came back. This is a little more upbeat because of the fast paced beat. "Du-ru-ru-m" first time he sings, but nothing exact. Such vibe, I would definitely listen to this album again. The ending repeated the chorus, and it's so nice.
12th song, and 9 minutes? Didn't expect that, must be a good one. This song is about how he only found old Chinese food in a refrigerator and called it "old whore's diet", quite fun. Even more fun is the beat change, the woman vocalising and the drums being tropical. Violin solo slays, now added the woman's vocals. Weird ending (good way).
13th song, it's french, I think. It's not a different vibe, quite short though. Love his french. It ended with applause and cheering, what fun. It was not as unique, but I enjoyed it as expected.
There was one song unavailable, but I finished it officially, and I loved every second of it, definitely 5 stars. It was unique, full of vocals. Changed the vibe, but I needed more Florence, however he is being himself. Had everything slow and melancholic songs should have.

London Calling
The Clash
Heard of this album was too great. I only know one song "brand new Cadillac" not a bad one, and I always wanted to listen to the whole album let's see:
First song, I love the energetic start. Their voice is fine too. His voice is British in some parts, which kind of make it more unique. It got kinda repetitive, but this is going well for now, the bass and the drums and guitar all did their job.
Second song, almost same vibe, and I like it. Quite short I must say. The instrumental break is scratchy, not enjoyable, but also it's expected from punk so I'm okay with it. A little basic I guess.
Third song, it's slow, but the beat is very fun to listen to. Thing is I've heard many songs and albums that sound like this, and it's not in any way different for now. Weird noises are going on in my right ears, it was jazz then some muffled noise, same happened in the left one(not exact sounds).
4th song, very different start, I love the beat when they sing, it's singing with them as if. This is so karaoke, I love it. Such energy, it's definitely giving. Their voices are strong in their way(I think two of them sing so). The chorus is very catchy. It's much better than the last song.
5th song, already different instrument in my left ear. He sings the verse in a very fun way. The way he sings some words is too unique. That energetic sound in the left ear, which is basically instrumental way of their singing is lovely.
6th, a little melancholic start. Nevermind. They sing in a funny way idk why, but I do like it. They know Spanish?! Nicee. I bet the lyrics are very meaningful, but I'm again lazy to check them. The beat is also uplifting, and the I feel the beats in my ears literally, like they bass them. Loved this too much.
7th song, he talks instead of singing at first. The beat is good. Shake ass song definitely. His voice scratched for a moment. Jazzyness came in. The weird groan was something. Liked this one too.
8th song, melancholic start, Interpol vibes. I like his voice here more. Chorus is too good. such vibes I can't. The chorus is very catchy, I sang along to it too. One of the best songs for me.
9th song, instantly hard rock start. So many lyrics. I love the pause-beat thing going. There was different vibe for a while, which devoured and the pause-beat is back. End was not as good, but overall it was perfect.
10th song, nice start, the instrument was laughing whaat. Chorus is simple, but very good. This is not as interesting as the other songs.
11th song, fully different start, it's both melancholic and upbeat. WHAT beat changed to something totally different, it's a better one I must say. There is background singing too. That saxophone (I think) makes this energetic and I live for that. One of the best songs here.
12th song, chorus was very not boring, they screamed for it too. Beat changed, it's instrumental break and he makes monkey laughing noises (I think). Not dramatically different, though it was satisfying.
13th song, quite short. I like the he says koka kola. Not very good to me, basic even.
14th song, beatles like start. Now it's ABBA vibed. Not anymore. His moan singing is very unique though. The instrumental beat is the best part here, there was saxophone thingy for a little time. He sings alike to that instrumental beat, which makes it much better. Long outro with the best instrumental on the album I think.
15th song, uplifting start. There is two voices I like that. There is a pause after he sings a little. This is vibey definitely, chorus is really good again. Guitar break is basic. Continuing as good as possible. There is beat change at two minutes, I like it. Weird new instrument came in and gone. Pencil writing sound. What is happening with the noises going onn. It's basically a big outro, which eventually I didn't like.
16th song, it was upbeat, then the beat dropped for a short time, quite fine. The rhymes are good in the whole album. Outro is him shouting something. This was fun if I liked punk, it's just not my favourite genre. Objectively it was interesting.
17th song, I think there was a transition from the last song. Of monsters and men "ha" was included. The beat progressing very fascinating, especially with the lyrics going. Weird beat now, the bass was weird too. I get why this was the best album in its release year. A better outro I must say.
18th song, temptations like start, tropical. A long one the song is. The verses are exceptionally good. I don't like his voice in some parts. Saxophone is in the room with us. He sounded like he had teeth on his tongue. Beat slowed down(volume too). "organ plays"? Does he mean that literally?. Idk why was it this long, but it was good enough. Outro best changed very well, and ended too soon.
19th song, fully different vibe as always. It's a last song too. He says the words fast in a good way. This one is annoyingly monotonous. Best part is when he says "you didn't stand by me" so satisfying. He doesn't vocal much, but he did in this one, nothing special.
Well, finished it. I knew it would have this vibe, but the songs weren't same, different instruments, the beat and his voice were quite excellent. However this is not my genre per se so 4 stars is enough. I liked almost every song, but there were some flops so the rate is even more accurate.

Inspiration Information
Shuggie Otis
I remember this album cover from somewhere, but can't remember it. Well it's a different genre from rock at least.
First song, vibey, expected from funky genre. It's very chill, good background music. There is different sound in each ear, also some instrument in my right ear, and beat is in the left one. It included jazz, so not as bad as I expected.
Second song, elevator vibes. This is so slow compared to the last song. He sings in a background vocals way. Main part in the song is the instruments, and paying close attention will make one discover new sounds in each 10 seconds(idk). I like that it's smooth and easy listening. There are different things going on, now it's piano in the left ear and some weird sounds in the left one, while the beat is in the middle. Long outro, but not boring.
Third song, oh, it's already ear changing sounds. After two minute intro, the lyrics came in. It's monotonous, but it has a vibe I enjoy. Not as bad if you get it.
Fourth song, lyrics are early. The name is weird. Slight diversity between the ears. It's getting to sound similar, but I guess that's the point. Nothing unique.
Fifth song, it's a faster. There is weird pause of the best and star-like sound Starting, it was an interlude I think.
Sixth song, this has an old jazz vibe. Was quite slow and less interesting, basically no lyrics?! Umm he has a Voice right, should use it.
Same with the seventh song, he doesn't sing, it's weird ai sounds. I mean it is something but not I would listen to because I wanted to.
8th song, it started so good what happened. It's like lofi(idk). It's relaxing plus fun, I almost fell asleep. Outro was a littlee different.
9th song started differently, upbeat and stuff. Oh now it's upbeat info the winning minute back
10th song, finally he sings, before that there was different style i think. It's different with the Christmas sounds going now especially. He stopped singing and made me fall asleep again(almost).
11th song, again instrumental, I was rating this 3 starts, now that's a stretch. Just background voices were heard, not Something I wanted.
12th song, it's good, uplifting, and a little interesting. The lyrics are not much, but now it's rocky guitar, didn't expect that from this album.
13th song, 12 minutes?! For a literal elevator music, a good quality one I guess.
The progression is fun, it's jazzy vibes now. Guitar is still playing. Obviously some weird noises. Why is this album a must listen I don't get it, I mean it was interesting and stuff, but not that much.
Imma quickly say that, it was much worse than I expected, why does he not sing, I mean at least the instrumental could have been better. It came down from 3 to 2 star album, that 2 stars is because of the first few songs that actually had something, at least lyrics. It's chill and I get it, but this kind of songs ask for something, than just making it same and boring.

Music for the Masses
Depeche Mode
I obviously know Depeche mode, also have seen this album cover, but have never listened to it, must be a good one.
First song, I love the start, it's giving factory working. Obviously the voice is nice and Depeche moded. I like that piano rock notes. The metal clanking noise(sounds like it) is on beatt. It's interesting, but too monotonous. This is the most listened song on Spotify. Epicore vibes came in. The choir is great. It's getting progressive I think. Two sounds are colliding now. So many things have happened. I hope others are better than this though. Outro is sea breathing sound.
WOW great transition to the second song. This one's slower, his voice is softer too. Background vocals came in while he's still singing. I like the production. Amazing devil vibes low key. The beat in my left hear, weird onking sound, and then some trombone like instrument in my left ear, production is great again I mean. Long outro. I loved the melancholy they brought with this song.
Third song, weird beat came in. wow Michael Jackson beat now, it's faster too. Idk what instrument is this, I've heard it before tho, and I like it. I like the rhyme, and the way words are said by him. Even if the song is almost same all the way, it's full of stuff. The echoed singing is the best here(when he sings the talking to pain part). There was a slight appearance of a weird instrument, happened again. Long outro again.
4th song, I think there was a transition. There is echoed background singing. Aand the beat came in. It's fun to listen to, not boring. The guitar is also very good during the chorus. The best parts in every song are the instrumentals. Long outro as always. This one didn't stand out.
5th song, fuck I don't know that instrument, but it's giving. Violin presence is detected. The piano is the best part. This one is annoyingly long and monotonous though. Sad vibe, which I love. Orchestral finish.
6th song, fast beat and it's changing. Right ear has some instrument going on. Guitar chords came in, right to left. Vocals is soft and satisfying. Beat is as fast as in the start. I can't even, so much production. Clapping sound-right ear. He barely skips, but as I said instruments are the best here. Nothing different happened, but it sounded like and intro tbh, the whole song.
Just read that first song was about gay sex? Cool if that's true.
7th song, starts with breathing, and moan in the right ear. Song is sexual just because of the name. The instrumental break sounds like an electric piano(if that exists, not familiar with the instrument names). The moan/breathing is all through the song. Laughing came in and went. Long ass outro, oh nvm it ends with that moan, it's okay then(I'm kinda hard), men talking in the radio in russian in my left ear aaant into the
8th song, what a transition. There is animal like sound in my right ear. This one's short, weird. Apparently the russian speaking was because this album was during cold war(knew that) and people were scared of nuclear threat so that man says something connected to it. Not so long outro, it's a little progressive.
Oh wow another transition to the 9th song. There is water dropping sound, right ear is with that Depeche mode instrument. The chorus is catchy. Amazing production again. I feel like 3 minutes is fully enough for these songs. He vocals a little. There is background "ooh ooh" sounds like a choir. Long outro aas alwayss.
10th song, love the piano already(might be a sample, apparently not). It's fully instrumental I think, I like that. There is banging sounds in between. Fuck left ear came in hard with that bang. It's epiccore again low-key. It's progressive. I love instrumental songs and this is very good. The operatic man voices while organ(?) came in woow, it's giving action mystery movie's last scene. Oh the bell ringing now. WOOW left ear has a new instrument now. Everything stopped, but the song didn't. Suddenly it is on again, but fully different sounds, violin in the right ear and some destructed piano in the middle.
11th song, starting spooky, even more than before songs. Piano came in. This is instrumental too, I'll use these songs when studying ughh. What is that sound coming in my left ear. So many noises I can't keep up. My tinnitus hit me. I am loving this. It's so chill yet scary. My brain is having a MASSAGE. Phonecall failed sound on loop at the end.
Next three songs are mixes. 12th song is a mix of the first song. Beat is nice, left ear has another instrument, same with the right ear. Long intro it is. I skipped a little and the whole song is this, it's not bad it's just not as special as the last two songs. Epicness came in, oh the lyrics too. Not bad, but with lyrics is better.
13th song is a mix of 8th song(russian man voice). Starting with claps. Quite short. I like the vibe(the beat especially). Lyrics are badly said, so not to tell what he is saying.
14th song, it's a glitter mix of a song I haven't listened to on this album. It's interesting. His voice isn't soft, autotuned it might be. There is main beat in the middle, but another travels through ears. The rocky guitar wasn't here before, now it is. Wasn't bad, but not unique either. The outro is long, but might be processive. There is reversed talking included. There is soft voice of him singing in the background at the end of the song.
That is it. What a journey. Because of the fact that it's Depeche mode, there was magnificent instrumentals, and the fully instrumental songs devoured, I give this 4 stars. It's not my favourite genre(might become), but it was really not boring and had a spark in it. Also a very chill vibes, which is what I need sometimes.

Liquid Swords
GZA
It's obvious it was going to be a hip hop album just because of the cover. Must be fun, I'm listening to hip hop rn so I'm gonna change it with this.
First song, ooo filmy start(smn talked about this so I'm not gonna do it). Apparently this is east coast hip hop. Quite spooky. Little screams. And smoothly comes in the rap, both of them are doing it. I like the beat, the rap is also satisfying. The rhymes were good I must say. I'd rate this 3/5, I needed something more.
Second song, again moviey start, I wonder what was the meaning of them putting this here. The fucking rhymes are eating. Also so many people here. Another one came in, the background is piano looping, and sometimes explosions. The chorus is weird at the end. And the outro is men speaking in a radio with choir sound, scratchy voice too. This was again 3/5, I generally like hip-hop and would rap with him because of the lyrical flow, dunno about the meaning though.
Third song, I like the rap start, it's full and fun to listen to. It stopped, it's now the usual like rap. I have no idea how to rate hip-hop, like what do I say about them, so I just say what I think. I like how sometimes there is two voices rapping and then it comes back to the original verse type. There is trombone like sound when chorus starts. I like how he says the song title. It's just beat at the end with him rapping a little. Trombones at last. This was also 3/5 , it's just not doing its best I think, I've heard better raps and construction of such songs. First time rating songs individually and I'm not good at this, this was again 3/5 idkk.
4th song, I like the bassed beat. And again the double rapping is so nice to hear, but it stops quickly. Some rhymes are really good to me. There is this constant sound in my right ear, which is usual in the hip-hop. Long ass outro. This gave 3/5 rating because it sounded as almost same.
5th song, moviey start. It's a smooth rap, but no chorus makes the songs really boring. It's too same, though this is one of the hip-hop albums that have THAT vibe, basically objectively it's enjoyable, but I wouldn't want to hear these songs again, oh some call them forgettable songs. Now it's not rap, but some man singing. Outro is again long, Depeche mode vibes because of that. The violin is great. Rap slightly came back. This one was also 3/5, it will be 4 when I will want to listen to it again, and 2 when it's just uninteresting.
6th song, I like the way he says the n word, also his voice is really good, now that i think there are some insufferable rappers with bad voices, that would give these songs 4/5, but I'm picky. Wow this one was short and not as obscure, so I'd say 2/5.
7th song, I like how it transitioned from the moviey vibe to the beat. Also this is the best kind of rap I think, it's just simple yet lyrically full(maybe not). Again so many artists here. Glitchy sound at the end. It was unexpectedly basic, because of the intro it's 3/5.
8th song, I love how chill the vibes are, even though he's like not rapping softly, it's not aggressive or unchill either. There is "oh man" in between, and deep voiced man in my left ear. Deep voice is in right ear too. Ehh this didn't stand out 2/5.
9th song, not a movie start, I think he's just talking and there is some man's vocals as a background. Bigg intro. I used to deepen my knowledge and learn about songs' meaning, but it took so much time and it doesn't really matter at the end of the day. It's upbeat, idk what instrument it is though. Definitely not bad, just there is many songs like these, might not be lyrically as good, but still. This wass 2/5, but now that I think 5 is too low to rate them, but I'm rating subjectively anyway so.
10th song, news woman in my left ear, and rapping in my right ear. Quickly starts the song. This was downtempo low-key, liked that. The violin is also good. I just love us style and voice. Long outro with that radio speaking man. This was 2/5 too, it was too simple, maybe 1 star for that additionally, but no.
11th song, it's vibey as always. I'm getting bored tho, because of how same it sounds, it all comes down to lyrical side I guess, but I don't listen for them so. Long outro again. This one was again 2/5, maybe it's because I'm sick of the same exact vibe, but I'm still objective in a way.
12th song, there is murmuring in the song in both ears as a background voice when he's rapping. The movie scene waked me up, before it was quite chill and nice vibes, soo 3/5 it is.
13th song, and that movie scene waked me up. It's very normal after thatt. The style is better. Also this is 4/5 because of the name. Otherwise it's not very different from other songs.
It was a nice one, I really liked it, I feel like this was a 3 star album, but it could be more if we think deeply. So I'd say 4 stars it is, the smoothness and the voice, plus the moviey vibe gives him such rating, much better than some rappers today.

The Soft Bulletin
The Flaming Lips
Never heard of this group, I like the cover though, and it was giving rock instantly. It's either too basic or uniqueness is spotted in them.
First song, first song is a remix?! Weird but the beat is fine at the start. Oh nvm it's fully different now and his voice is quite good, there is also background vocals too coming in my right ear. This one is chamber genred and I love that. There is this piano chord that I like, comes rarely tho. Oh beat slowed down and after the last lyric increased. Despite being monotonous, it was good for the ears, plus the vocals, so I'd say 4/5.
Second song, it's a sad song, violin is main instrument. His vocals are different. It's a big intro, hope good part is ahead. WOW the sudden guitar in my right ear, fully mood change to rock, and back to sadness. Loved that instrumental break. That happened again, and ended quite beautifully. This was better than the last one, but not too much, 4/5 it is.
Third song, soft guitar start, oh violin existed for some time(Apparently it comed back still). There is this opera like instruments suddenly, almost dramatic. The beat change again, guitar is the main instrument with some other weird ones in both ears. Back to sad vibes, now I hear guitar and a piano. Ohh the tropical vibe is back. Pardon, now it feels like a different song, it's upbeat and countryed. There is three songs here like what. The outro is another song now I feel like. Still a 4/5, I except more noww.
4th song, Elton John vibes with that piano and vocals. Sudded drum chime in constantly. It's so soft and chilly, I love it. The opera vibes especially are well made. It feels like Beatles too. Since there was nothing different this is a 3/5, but it was interesting.
5th song, I like the upliftingness here. It's slow and progresses too, with the drums and piano too. This one has something that is too good to don't like. This was solid 3/5, I want more from them.
6th song, dark start, love that. Vocals are haunting now. It's very different, the beat no instruments, they just came in. It's less spooky tbh. It has a movie soundtrack vibe. It's short at the end. I liked this more than others so 4/5, this is objective rating, it would be lower if it was not.
7th song, again spookyness, it's and instrumental song too, which is bad, because it's not unique, and would never want to listen to this willingly, unless use it as a background. It was a 2/5.
8th song, not bad, it's just basic for now, and has an indie vibe(not bad). It seems monotonous. I'm not liking this much. It's melancholic and I love that, but I think there are many songs like this already for me to absolutely love this. I like the instrumental break, but it was too short. I wanted to rate this 3 but 2/5.
9th song, it was basic at start, but the violin come in was perfect, plus guitar chords now. I consider their voice type overused rn, I would prefer this to be like of monsters and men, which means to be more downtempo yet upbeat. 3/5 for the violin.
10th song, starting with a choir, feeling churchy. Now men murmuring. I loved how the beat came in, giving gothic. Big intro. Singing style is changed a little. Vocals changed to more clear one. It's still boring though. I like the choir singing that part together. Big outro, with the choir. Hmm 2/5.
11th song, I like the "Ratatat" whispering start already a star for that. That was the best part I'm afraid. I skipped a little it's very not what I want rn. There is instrumental break at 3 minutes, it's a nice one. I slept on this yesterday, no wonder why(it's just too quiet not that it's bad). For rainy weather I'd say. 3/5 I guess.
12th song, it's a short one, good. It feels instrumental only though. I like the piano, but it's not the main instrument exactly so overall it's not my vibe, I prefer classical or a nostalgic movie soundtrack to this. 2/5 to sum up.
13th song, what a start, fast and it sound familiar. Smn called this COVID anthem and I kinda agree because of the lyrics. I like this song the best I think. The deliver of the instrumental break, plus the rhyme I think I heard was great. and that piano riff just before the lyrics start has a FTM vibe. I like how it slows down for a moment and goes into chorus. No wonder this is one of the most listened on Spotify. So 4/5, really deserved, I should rate songs out of 10, 5 is too low at this point, I put too many songs in the same category.
14th song, this one's a remix of a 8th song, which was not as good. And this remix is no difference sadly, sounds almost same tbh. Idk if I should rate this but 1/5.
Basically it was definitely not bad, I like the chamber vibes plus that indieness and rock. Had some moments, but too many flops. I think 3 stars is enough, because I like this genre and I get why I should like this, there's just better albums like this.

Blunderbuss
Jack White
Obviously heard of Jack white and had already received his white stripes album here, it was nice expecting same vibe here. Fuck I just saw the crow in the cover, even better it became.
First song, judge me all you want, I like this kind of songs, it's full and it's almost rapping. Only thing I don't find really fun is this guitar riffs(not sure about the name) it's fine just sometimes overused. I like the instrumental break. Outro is without any beat or instrument, but he sings a little, at the very end guitar comes and goes quickly. I'd say with my new grading system, 8.8/10.
Second song, yes this is "noise" for some, but I low key like this, rock isn't even my favourite genre, but this kinda songs are just differently good, especially with jack. It was a short, but outro was quite good and full. Not better than the first one so 8.4/10
Third song, I like his fast singing. Guitar is always good here. I want his voice more tho. There is this adlib like thing he does when he starts the verse, which I love. Progressive and weird instrumental break. He sings then smth else sings back in (). Not better than the last one so 8.1/10, still the vibe was great.
Fourth song, it's slow for now, but I hear progressing guitar. Songs are mostly about love, I think. It's slightly bad without the fullness that songs before had, but still doing it's job. I was wrong about the progressiveness, it is slightly doing that, however, not exactly. There was a woman voice joined, kinda unique, but not from jack. 7.6/10.
5th song, this one's slower. I'd call this one "noise" it's too basic. Thing is first two songs had this vibe that is good in every song, while to me slow ones need some more work to be considered well. I like the outro instrumental, ruined by his vocals sadly. 7.4/10.
6th song, I like the name tbh. Apparently there is two POVs here, funn. Noone knows who the song is about. Smn said to read the verses vice versa, and they make sense that way more. I loved the concept of this song, soo I guess 8/10 for that, plus it wasn't annoyingly slow.
7th song, fast start, with them instruments. Apparently this song is about how free Jay z and Kanye are at expressing themselves, which jack lacks of. I mean it's 2012 and I'm not surprised though I dunno what made him write this song exactly. I like the piano before the lyrics start. The guitar screeching started. Mm not bad, 7.8/10, not unique or catchy enough.
8th song, he's louder here, especially in the headphones. The choir and the clapping is amazing here, plus now the guitar and this thing in my right ear beating. Woow that instrumental break at exactly half time passed. Oh the woman sang a little, these choir really ate with the coming ins. This was energetic and different, 8.9/10.
9th song, such a nice start, his singing not so much. Piano is magnificent. It's very classical rock vibed. Oh I love the instrumental break at 1:12, the fast piano is giving Chuck Berry. It came back, I really love itt. It got harder at the end. This was solid 8.5/10.
10th song, was slow now it's half full. Liking the instrument in my right ear, piano in the middle too. His voice is much better here, less scratched. He talks fast here, best thing he does on this album. Piano got faster in the background(or not). Quite easy listening, I'd say 8.3/10.
11th song, loving the start with the piano, it ended now it's just beats, and he started singing, I don't like it anymore. He sings too boringly sometimes, even though there is another guy singing same in my right ear with him. Now only he's singing, lasted short. Piano solo, messy one. Telling me to sleep, how considerate. 7.3/10, I wanted more.
12th song, long intro seems worth it, it's slowly using all the instruments. Satisfyingly slow it is. Background voiced he sings the chorus. Very relaxing, nothing is happening, not complaining though. His voice changed, and woman is joined in. Pause, Guitar slowly existing and he also slowly comes in, the beat came in, piano in the left, I was expecting smth apparently nothing, oh nevermindd it got low key hard at the end. It was better than the last one so 7.6/10.
13th song, Papa's pizzeria soundtrack like start tbh, I love it. This is one of the best because of that beat, oh it changed to jazzy one. It's so chill too. Such long instrumental break. Piano in the left ear, some instrument in my right ear, and electric guitar? His vocals have changed, old beat is gone. Women voice came now. Sounds like a totally different song. There was two songs here I think. Outro is progressive, fast and interesting plus both of their voices in sync, perfect ending I suppose. 9.1/10 definitely, because of the concept.
Quite nice soundss I've heard today. This was not as different from other rock albums, but it had differentness and wasn't just annoying uninteresting noise. Basically 4 stars, I didn't expect any more or less.

Fear Of Music
Talking Heads
I know talking heads, but only know two songs psycho killer and new feeling. 4 last songs aren't available on Spotify in here. Kind of a weird look the cover has. It's not rock, but punk and new wave so ik what to expect kind of.
First song, old vibes, not English, never had that experience here. It's fun I like the energy, it's europopy. Smn said what if this song was their karaoke song and another one had this fully memorized by listening to it too much. I really liked this, it was different, full, and fun to listen to. I'd say 8.8/10.
Second song, back to English, there is background "mmm" with the main singing.
It's melancholic, also alien like sounds in the right ear. It's monotonous and not energetic. It increased volume two times in my left ear, I love that. I liked the voice change in 2:38. It changed again it was more desperate. Long outro. It was unique, but also boring, so 7.1/10.
Third song, I love the start. It's energetic, nevermind, and now it is again. There's pauses after that energy burst. It's only energy now. I like the guitar, his voice is not soft, but not annoying. Long outro. It felt too long even though it wasn't, 7/10 worse than the last one.
4th song, I like the use of piano here. He sings in such a good way. Chorus is bad. Very monotonous. I'm not impressed at all, though I like those instruments. It was nice, but tooo uninteresting 6.8/10
5th song, start is great, it's energetic. It's simple,but fun. There is trombone like instrument. This one's was better than some slow ones here. 7.7/10.
6th song. Different vocal start. Not bad, it's not full of energy, however, it is sad. He used vocals at the end. Worse than the last one 7.3/10, I usually don't talk this less about songs.
7th song, alien instruments. Background voice saying "faster". It got slower now and stays like that, bad. It's so repetitive. Instrumental break with the guitar. Outro is very big. I'd say 6.2/10.
8th song, soft voiced, plus sad. Chorus is not fully different, though it's something. I did not like this one, it's chill and relaxing, but that's not what I came here for. 6/10.
9th song, it's enthusiastic. I like the guitar in the left and some instrument in the right ear, while there is this constant sound in the middle, a beat I suppose. His voice is aggressive, then not. WOW what a change so suddenly, it's how the lyrics are said. Long outro. For the change I rate it 7.2/10.
10th song, I like how he says "electric guitar", the beat is making it better. Best part is that otherwise it's boring. Whole song was that almost, there were verses, but not remarkable. Because of repeating name I say 7.6/10.
11th song, I love the mysterious start. Different instruments going on, that went on too much, and the vocals are a disappointment (was a glitch at the start of it). I'm not liking this, making the whole song on that beat is not a good choice, plus the way he sings is different, but in a bad way. Spooky song it is undeniably though. 2 minute outro: some talking in between, which is scary as fuck, a frog?!, guitar came in, the man talking was actually weird. This was most uniquely done, 7.9/10 for that.
Overall I'm not impressed, I wanted more from them, I didn't it was gonna be this lame overused vibe. There were some parts in songs that were catchy and interesting otherwise it was repetitive (expected). So 3 stars seems like a fair rating, could have been worse.

Stand!
Sly & The Family Stone
I knew it was gonna be funk just by the the style of the cover. Second track's name is interesting, and I've never heard of them.
First song, I love the boogie vibe already. It's upbeat and his voice is fine. Liking the vocals. It's repetitive yet it's quite good. Outro is very FUN. This it's THE vibe one might be looking for. 8.9/10, it's not my genre, but I'm getting it.
Second song, as I said a name is giving. Woman vocals came in, quite nice. I like that he repeats the title. Oh the song is big, and now it's instrumental break, with some weird noises he makes in between, even instruments are weird, only the trombone thing in my right ear makes sense. And it comes back, THE TITLE. I love love this song so much, it's not annoyingly long orr instrumentals being boring. It's getting loud, with his mumbling and vocals. I think this is outro already, I was right, great ending. 9.7/10 definitely. -0.3 for too much instrumentals.
Third song, WOW such energy, it's low key jazzy too. And there is woman and man singing. Not anymore. Right ear is for the woman and left for man. The "boom lakalaka" or whatever is very good in the right ear. Country vibes came in. The deep voice in the left ear is perfect. The production is amazing just to say. The instrumental break is going on and it's sooo chaotic, the vocals, the beat, and the trombone thingy, plus him singing. Last one had some spark in the name so 9.4/10 is this one.
4th song, quite chilly vibe. There is trombone in the right ear and other thing in the left ear(so bad with the names ik). I like the chorus. Oh verse is great too. This is so satisfying I can't really describe it. Voices change in between singing, it's so well made. Outro is basically a chorus being monotonous, which was unexpectedly magnificent. 9.6/10 for this one,
I'd rate songs 10 if I already knew them and loved them with my heart btw.
5th song, it's a little different vibe here. Drums are included, women vocals came in. Man singing in left then right and now middle. Every second is a surprise like, I'm impresseddd. Now it's slowed down only beat left, back to the song now. I didn't know I liked this vibe this much before this album, good to know. This was a little less entertaining so 9.3/10.
6th song, and I'm already loving it, it has a nostalgic vibe. Woman in the right ear singing the best melody. The piano is the most nostalgic here. it's not very upbeat, but that makes it better I suppose (in this song I mean). It's too short, this was melodically best, however, less full. Soo 9.5/10 seems fair.
7th song, cool name indeed. 13 fucking minutes wow, that's why the intro is quite long. Guitar in right ear and some weird instrument in the middle. Left ear also had a different guitar sound and smth else. Umm I just checked genius and it's mostly instrumental. It's too long if the song is gonna be just this tbh. Vibe changed to downtempo I think. I thought I had tinnitus in my left ear, it's the song apparently. So relaxing too. I listened to it fully, and it was mostly same, but at the end beat was different and at the really end the beat was edging, at the really end some men were laughing. So I'd say 7.5/10 would only listen to this when writing smth I guess.
8th song, short one. It's as good as others, the title repeating iconic as ever. Deep voiced guy is in the right ear now. WOOW WHAT INSTRUMENT WAS AT 1 MINUTES, I LOVED IT. It's normal now, very groovy and oldie. There are single versions of the songs I've already listened to, dunno what that means, maybe they're shorter. It's getting slower only right ear was active, then left joined. This was 9.2/10.
9th song, it's a single version of the first song, sound exactly same so Imma not listen to it fully or rate it. Same with 10th and 11th songs.
12th song, this is something, it started normally and now it's clapping sounds(soul clapping apparently), quite satisfying. It's jazzy, and full of sounds as always, I can't get enough of this I'm afraid, it's soft singing now both man and woman. Outro got downtempoed and some talking began. I say 9.4/10 for being unique.
13th song, already a good start what can I sayyy. It's only what it started with since it's an instrumental, but it's fun and entertaining. I think nothing else will happen, so I'm just gonna sum it up, before that this is 7.5/10 song, too same, but it's not annoying.
Soo I LOVED this album, I actually like funk and soul, I just needed the right album, temptations were not it, but this one ATE. Basically, it's a 5 star album, despite some flops, that were two instrumental songs, I consider this one of the most entertaining and fun albums I've ever listened to here.

Debut
Björk
OMG ONE OF MY FAVOURITE ARTISTS, I DON'T KNOW EVERY SONG OF THIS ALBUM BECAUSE I'M A GRADUAL ADDER, BUT JUST KEEP IN MIND ALL THE SONGS ARE 10/10 IDC, AND 5 STARS FOR THE ALBUM IN ADVANCE. I know first, third, fourth, and 6th songs, always wanted to listen to the whole album and now I can.
First song, ooh soo good it is already. I love her voice, it's unique, plus uses her vocals in the best way possible. This song is about human's, I think, and their behaviour. The beats and the instrumental break is also amazing, it fills my head somehow. Her voice is softer and repeats the title. It's so chaotic now, background voice, the beat and the loud thingy. Weird instrument came in, it's giving Björk (obvi). Outro is she repeating "human". As I said all the songs are 10/10.
Second song, and what a beat. WOW the piano, and that random beat in my left ear. Verse ended and even more weird the whole vibe is, I love it, so danceable too, plus catchy. Her random screams are the best, noone does it like Björk I swearr. The beat is more upbeat during the chorus. Lyrics ended but 1 or more minutes is left. It's gibberish at the end, I suppose (so Björk). Ending on a slower beat with her gibberish, now it's only her, best slightly came back and went away.
Third song, I WILL RECOGNISE THIS BEAT EVERYWHERE, "his wicked sense of humour suggests exciting sex" when I first read that I was flabbergasted for no reason. Omg the gibberish after saying "necklace". I get why people dislike this, I find her unique in a way that makes me music taste unique too, sounds dumb, but I love experimental artists basically, so Björk gives me that(sounds like I don't actually like her, but I really do). Also smn said "stop giving me Björk albums, so THERE'S MORE OF HER HERE, AMAZING). lovely ending and the song is just perfect, not boring as some said.
4th song, disco and people talking?! What is she doingg, whispering noww. NO THE DISCO IS EVERYTHING HERE. Apparently I've never listened to this song closely, it's much better than I remember. Wait beat is gone and car closed, now I feel like Björk is talking to me, beat is back. Her gurgling-like sound is so satisfying I must say. The outro is pure disco for me, beat is gone ohhh and that's how it endss.
5th song, it was a fucking transition, I love her even more. Also romantic chords is in the room with us. She's softer with the voice too. Wave sounds. Instrumental break is very chill and relaxing, the wave sounds is again a nice addition. YES THE INSTRUMENT IS HARP, FINALLY REMEMBERED THE NAME, LOVE THAT. There was some people talking slightly too. Outro is the harp, and some step sound at the end.
6th song, weird beat, I like it. It has the previous mentioned disco vibe, but it's more experimental now. I repeat the beat is catchy and addictive. THE gibberish is backk. Long outroo with her gibberish, iconicc. Now I none of the songs that are left(except play dead, which I know a different version).
7th song, baby sounds hello? The guitar is quite nice here Latino vibed. Oh, the beat came in and it's fully different. She repeats the title a lot. Baby voice was actually a sample as I read. The beat vibe changed again, and back to the original one. Ended normally, nothing surprising.
There should be a song "Atlantic" on the album and I can't find it anywhere, weird.
8th song, jazz plus bird sounds. It's much slower than other song, I feel like in a jungle tbh. Her voice is soft here. There is background vocals now. Outro is long, but mysterious. I forget to how much I loved the songs(before songs) because I already see them as masterpieces, this one is no different, and I'm being objective too.
9th song, piano is giving. Slow vibes, and soft voiced. Oh violin I hear, coool. I love the ongoing beat and the lyrics are simple, but fun to read, because of the meaning. This one is... I was gonna say annoyingly slow, but new instrument came in and it's better now. Outro is with that piano and violin. Piano notes were the best here.
10th song, acoustic she sings now. Oh electronic beat is slowly coming in, in the right ear then in the middle, AND BOOM I FEEL LIKE IN A CLUB, IT PROGRESSED EVEN MORE. Right ear I hear some weird short sound. The beat was not so hard, but still so enjoyable the whole song was made by it.
11th song, jazz sounds, she sang and jazz came back, that's the que here, she and jazz replace eachother. New albums of her have this vibe, but the jazz is even more experimental. Outro is long and fully jazzy. Her Voice was soft. I loved this too, it was different and would definitely listen to this while writing smth, because it's peaceful and JAZZZY.
12th song, I was right I know this one. It's louder and her voice is more powerful, she sings differently too, faster. Gibberish as alwaysss. The violin sound is so iconic and unforgettable too. Genius says the big pause after "anchor song" is connected to this song, I don't get it rn. I think first song that finished on slowing down the beat and her voice.
Despite that I have officially listened to the whole album, there is still some songs left that I am not obligated to listen to, but I will definitely do it off from this app.
Just listening to "I remember you" and it's so romantic, the harp is everything here, it's one of the later added songs I think, and it's as perfect as it could be.
Anyway OBVIOUSLY 5 STARS FOR THIS GORGEOUS ALBUM. Everything was perfect and well thought, I loved every second of it, can't wait for more of her albumss.

Oxygène
Jean-Michel Jarre
I haven't guessed the genre of this, too different. All the songs have the same name, I'll check the meaning of that. Otherwise it's electronica so lyrics are not gonna be the main attraction sadly I think. It has a historical influence, but not something one could instantly enjoy, I suppose. I also sense transitionss like a Avalanches.
I decided not to rate each song independently since it's a one big song.
First song, just as I thought, no lyrics, so I put the headphones on, just in case magic happens like this. Weird sounds go through first in right and then left ear. Otherwise it's chill. Alien UFO sound now. Different notes came in. There is nothing on genius, I think this album is the origin of many sounds, that artists used later idk. It's just... nothing. Oh, a "manly" beat came in, orchestral vibes too. It's same as before now. I have no idea why should I like this. Squeaky sounds, umm even weirder came up just now.
Second song, it was an amazing transition, plus new sounds unlocked, it's like a game now, each song suggests new stuff, and I guess that's fun. Wow different vibe fully now, I mean the constant sound is changed, background ear-to-ear sounds are almost same. It's like Chicken Invaders sounds tbh. It has a beat to it(constant one), I'd shake ass to it. So bad that I don't know instrument names, but I recognise them. It's more melodic now. I'm definitely getting the vibe now, it relaxes me in a different way. New background sounds came in, it's wavey(almost like sea), plus sand sounds andd windyy. The wind goes from left to right ear, very satisfying.
Third song, idk if there was a transition, but it's quite different now, constant tinnitus like sounds in the background, while notes are taken in the right ear, and a slight beat. Also very short song compared to the before ones. It got slower and slower, while alien sounds in the right ear go out and birdsong comes in(and goes).
4th song, this is the most listened song. Oh, tropical vibes. I like the progressiveness. Trombone thingy is in action with a constant beat in my right ear, violins came in slightly. This is the most active one so far. But last three were relaxing on a different level, plus interesting. It didn't evolve any further just last half of the song used different sounds.
5th song, umm helicopter sound almost, seems ASMRy, plus bird sounds, but if they were robotic. 10 MINUTES?! It's violiny now. No constant beat. Just slowly vibing with that instrument, there is an additional sound in the left ear too. Constant beat came in low key. It's not progressing. It's almost-cannon like sound now. Sparkling noisess. Ohh left ear has a real beat now. Wtff the scratchy sounds now. This is evolving. FUUCK IT IS GOING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT EAR, AND THERE IS TWO BEATS. ONE GOES TO LEFT ANOTHER TO THE RIGHT. What if they collide. Beats are in their places and main character is another instrument now. At the end cannon sounds again with a bit of sea wave. Now just wave sounds.
6th song, wtf there was a transition, didn't even notice. Little tropical vibes slowly coming in, but wave sound is the main. There is a flowing melody now, with a different sounding guitar(I think). It's not dramatically different, but it's more pianoed. I love this electric piano even more, it has a nostalgic vibe somehow(a sample? I doubt). Oh it is fading away, and this crushing(wave) sound is the main attraction. This is it? Random bird sound in the left ear. Yes, that was it, I wanted more from the ending, but I suppose that's fine too.
However weird it may sound for some, I actually liked this, it was a journey, that I never knew I wanted. I wasn't amazed completely, but it was unique in a way, which I liked a lott. So 4 stars, yes, I'm being veery generous, on the other hand it was much better than some vocal guys out there with the same exact sounds throughout the album.

Illinois
Sufjan Stevens
Why do I think this will have a Dion vibe, which would be a disaster, I hope the best, because the album cover is veery weird, but unique too.
First song, apparently it's baroque pop, one of my favourite genress. It's slow with a piano and another instrument playing (flute thingy). Background voices are in the song too. Well umm it was too short to rate it, but I'd say 7.9/10 since it was melancholic and the I love piano.
Second song, it's instrumental? Much better with the headphones on, different instruments are playing, trombone and some nature like sound thingy(flute maybe) in the left ear. It was epicore vibed and had a classicalness into it. Liked it quite a lot. 8.2/10, I don't even need lyrics at this point.
Third song, what fun beat, it's looping, he has a Rufus-like voice. The production is amazing, women joined in and they sing fast.
Trombone came in, different version of piano in the right ear. It's so satisfying, the whole vibe and the way melodies flow in such a fun way. I'm deeply amazed. The instrumental break is tbh same just within lyrics. Only piano now with some instrument's riffle sound. Flute thingy in the left ear slightly. Glitchy sounds now, might be electric piano. The jazzy part is as well magnificent. I repeat production is undeniably perfect. I'm feeling so many emotions now, it's sad, but the beat and the instruments are fun in a downtempo way still. It's getting to the end while instruments are less loud. The women's voices is a cappella almost and I love it. It was 10/10 song, definitelyyy loved every second.
4th song, this is sadder, and with a piano. His voice is right in the middle I love that. Idk if I said, but the names are so interesting, they suggest good lyrics too already. There is faint woman voice in the right ear. Guitar is in play now. It's about John Wayne's crimes I suppose. Definitely Rufus Wainwright vibes again, but obviously with differences. Because this was slow Imma rate if 9.5/10.
5th song, violinsss, and piano now, weird guitar like sound in the right ear, but the main guitar is in the middle(one of them sounds like banjo). It's not particularly sad, but not upbeat either. The voice echo effect(not exactly tho) he does that greatt. Trombone came in(I'm not good with instrument names btw). This is not as great as the other ones, but I'm getting it. It's permanent wave in the best possible way. it ended repeating the same lines I think. Not as good as I've said so 8.5/10.
6th song, oop it's an interlude, violins I hear. And that's itt. Not even a transition to the
7th song, but that's okay I guess. This one has a banjo again I thinkk. Two voices I hear. The beat is normal, nothing unique yet. BTW his voice is soft and great to listen to. What are these names, they are sooo much different from what I've seen on other albums ever. He sings a little and then that guitar-like instrument is the main attraction(though it's always playing). This didn't stand out I'd say 7.5/10.
Oops clapping sounds I missed, and instrument was breathing.( Just checked and this was another song soo 8th song this one is)
9th song, of monsters and men like violin and best use. Got slow and he started singing. I love full songs and this is one of them. Women sings the chorus. I will definitely check his other albums, so many of them, goood. It was loud and got slow suddenly with him starting singing after the break. Long the songs are btw. Choir like sound I hear. The champer popness is feeling here as well. Outro is chill and choiry. I'd say 9.8/10, the instrumental break was Unforgettable and veeery baroque pop, arcade fire-ed.
10th song, loving the start, it's relaxing and the way he sings is enjoyable. Weird instrument came in. Constant beat is by the guitar. Oh, I hear banjo again. It's monotonous, which is not my vibe, but it's Sufjan so I can take it. Little trombone joined. It's instrumental break with a woman's voice, loving itt. 8.9/10 seems fair.
11th song, what a piano start. It's a short song tho. So beautiful. The instruments are totally with eachother. It's ordered chaos. Well not as amazing so 7.9/10.
12th song, um hello punk rock?! Nevermind it's piano mostly now. Why did it start so metal-y. Choir joined. He finished singing the soft and relaxing one, AND PUNK BEGAN AGAIN, FEELS LIKE TWO SONGS AS ONE. Little trombone joined in the right ear. Exactly same happened, soft voice to punk and choir singing while punk, just to say it is so unique in many ways. Vibe is fully different now, it's slow and more acoustic than ever. Oh, I hear the rising choir voice, it came and stopped for a veeeery short time then perfectly transitioned into the(9.7/10)
13th song, I love this. It has a familiar notes taken. Choir is the main attraction, Sufjan sang a little too. Christmassy vibe now. And it ended differently too, 14th song is an interlude so both of them were a solid 8/10.
15th song, good transition again. It's slow and melancholic now. MY GOODNESS WHAT IS THIS INSTRUMENTAL BREAK I'M FLYING. The verses are fins, not basic, however, not different either. Trombone break again, more emotional though. WOW THE BEAT DROP AND WOMEN VOICE CAME IN, UNEXPECTED. Even more arcade fire vibes. It's progressing, getting louder and more chaotic. Chaos stopped and he sings, left ear I hear a woman. This is a masterpieceee. 10/10 alreadyy. Outro is interlude-y, and has this loud thing going on.
16th song, last song stopped quickly and this one's beat came in. It's so chill and so funn. The violin, I'm so happy what is this, it's so perfect. Woman singing, I think she's pronouncing something, Sufjan joined, but no as main, now he did. Guitar is in the right ear. I repeat the start instrumentals were unexplainably amazing. I love the woman's part. It's chaotic with three voices all together, like what an adventure. 10/10 againn, couldn't have been better than this, plus the name is immaculate.
17th song, violin start oops it's an interlude. Well it's not bad. Umm pardon? Another interlude into the 18th song, there was a transition too, this one's choiry, it ended weirdly, but it transitioned into the next song perfectly.
19th song, it was a piano start, and it's still going just with him singing. It's very satisfying, especially the choir slightly existing in it. Oh it changed the way of singing, it's more full because there is woman in the right and man in the left ear singing along. Back to original alone, soft singing now. Outro is expected, it's with little "ooh"s. I'd say 7.9/10 it didn't give the vibe.
20th song, clapping fun start, trombone, I hear constant beat in the left ear too. 7 fucking minutes? And I feel like there's no lyrics. Well I do am liking the instruments. Oops lyrics came in. Production as good as possible. Women came in they are more upbeat and choiry, they have a musical vibe. I feel blessed. It got slow, and it's the best part in the song, the trombone is beating whole he's singing in the best way with the violins. Clap-clap. SUCH CHAOS. Drum sounds I heard. Cute piano solo, clap-clap, violins. Trombone, gibberish singing along. Oh, it stopped fully, it's totally slow now. Beats increased and downtempoed instantly. Sufjan and the woman are singing together softly, with the not upbeat version of instruments. It's getting progressive I think. YESS IT'S SO MUCH BETTER NOW, MORE FULL. This was just too good 10/10, didn't even notice it was 7 minutes.
21th song, it's interlude and I love it, the trombone is breathing fast, especially in the right ear, both ears experience the same sounds one after the other.
22th song, progressive start. NOO IT'S THE LAST SONG, I'M HAVING SO MUCH FUN THOUGH. I hear piano mainly and some constant beat by unknown instruments to me. As I said it'd getting progressive, louder too. No lyrics for this one I think. Feels like a happy movie ending sound, and it technically is an ending to a beautiful journey. Idk the instruments, but they are eating itt. Because of no lyrics Imma say 9/10. It stopped with a soft note.
OBVIOUSLY 5 STARS, HANDS DOWN ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS HERE. I didn't expect this goodness from this, I'm honestly in shock, and 22 songs went on like little 5 songs, it was so good. I will definitely check more of his albums.

Trafalgar
Bee Gees
I obviously know Bee Gees, and have seen this album cover, but never listened to it fully, must be a good one.
First song, quite mellow already, guitar has a country vibe. Ohh the fullness was greatly brought in, it went away. I like the sadness, especially the beat that makes the sound richer. The chorus is givingg. It's chamber pop vibed too. The "lalala"s is a lazy bridge, but I'm here for it. I liked itt quite a lot even as a slow and sad song so 8.2/10.
Second song, piano and the beat is already good. By the wayy his voice sounds quite nice, it's not annoying or clichéd. The beat drop thing is as great as in the last song. Just realised the name is "Israel" wondering what the song's meaning is. The vocals are scratchy, but lovely to hear. I'm loving the experience alreadyy, it's not some rock noise, that might be annoying sometimes, but a soft rock with the elements of baroque in it(I think. 8.7/10 definitelyy.
Third song, starting with gibberish. I love how the "beat drops" softly when he starts singing the line. It's karaoke vibed too I must say, which is good. It's permanent wave and repetitive, but the instruments and his lyrical delivery makes it worth it tbh. Quite a big outro I am sensing. He's repeating the title as the outro I suppose, it is truly and experience, especially with the violins coming in. This was not as special so 8/10.
4th song, I love the guitar here. Unexpectedly short song. The instrumental break was everything here, but the vocals of him is just so satisfying, and mellow in the best way. Outro was softly saying the lyrics and the violins playing until they die out. I'd say 8/10 still.
5th song, Broadway-like start. The drum beat fills the song so well. It sounds more theatrical than others. Voice is enhanced(choir like now almost), plus the production got harder. The dramatic instrumental introduction is weird and not sure why does it even happen, I love it though. Songs are mostly about love as I see. It was an okay one so 7.9/10.
6th song, I liked the start, it's depressing plus the lyrics make the song more like it. Ooo the beat dropp(I don't like using this term, but it's the easiest way to say it). Vibe fully changed and Beatles came in(not exactly). After 2 minutes it's very Beatles-cored. It's more upbeat and less mellow, but obviously it stays rock. Outro is violins I think quite funn. 8.4 for the change of the beat.
7th song, guitar and piano fusion, on and electric guitar in the right ear, and normal one in the left one(I think idkk). The vocals are the most used here. Oh it's the album name too. This was as good as it should have been, but I'm kinda bored so 7.9/10.
8th song, piano start literally, his voice is weirdly different and softer. Piano is the main instrument here. The drop never disappoints with these guys. It has Celine Dion vibe, if the vocals were more focused on. I wonder if they influenced other bands or vice versa, because I'm getting many Beatles vibes throughout the album. Violin in the left ear workingg. Mmm 8.1/10 must be enough.
9th song, almost loud start. Guitar in the left ear. His voice is so country and the guitar too. Piano came in the right ear, what a productionn. It's getting better and better. The violins is a nice touch. I like the way it sounded, not like a one song. 8.4/10 it is. There was trombone at the end.
10th song, it's sadder than most other songs, only piano is the main character, oh the violin came in. It's not as unique, but it sure makes me feel something. Vocals are also quite a lot here, but not Whitney vocals, just the neutral ones. I say 7.7/10.
11th song, mannyy drum beats. Oh the guitar and soft voice of his game in. His range is obviously not high as a voalist, but he sings differently and not tooo folky, which is enjoyable. There are two voices now and one is scratched almost annoyingly. I liked this, however, too basic, so 7.8/10.
12th and the last song, totally different vibe the beat change, but it's not really soft rock now is it. The beat is low, piano and electric guitar in the right ear, flow of violin, constant beat made by the normal guitar. It's progressing to more chamberness. It's epicore vibes at the end, at the very end, it gets slower and quiet. Low key disappointed, because it sounded better at the start, still 7.9 seems fair rating.
I loved this album, because of the emotions they put in it. Production was interesting with the popular instruments being involved, sooo 4 stars is quite enough, the chill and relaxing sounds make this album more unique than ever.

Bert Jansch
Bert Jansch
I've never heard of him, he seems country and folky, though, plus it's 1965 so it'll be slow and painful, I hope not.
First song, sadly I was right, it's guitar playing only and I sense the countryness in it. It was monotonous and kind of boring too. Bob Dylan vibes, only worse. Idk how to rate a bad song, it's like 3/10, this is not my genre and I don't know how to appreciate it.
Second song, it's faster, I like that. He loves long intros I suppose. Ohh this was instrumental, I like non-lyrical songs, so this gets a higher rating, I'd say 6/10. It was too same and literally nothing changed.
Third song, I'm getting the vibe, guitar is interesting, his vocals are soft and scratchy too, not bad. This one has something in it, it's more catchy and less uninteresting. This wass 6.8/10 a little better than the songs before.
4th song, he's vocaling a lot, which is not his exact vibe I think, but it doesn't sound horrible so. I think I heard a voice crack. This was annoyingly bad, old folk is just not me, though the more I listen to it more normal it becomes and listenable, but something I'd listen to on purpose. 2/10.
5th song, interlude I suppose, it was guitar playing, which is in a way satisfying, but idk if it is special and I don't see it. Anyway 6th song is also an interlude, but longer, it's not even sad nor upbeat it's just guitar playing yk. I don't find this fun sadly. No rating for this one.
7th song, now this one is melancholic. I do like that it's not totally bad, just not my type. It's just very classic and I Bert isn't even doing this for the views obviously, which makes it better, he's just enjoying himself (I think). However, I do rate the albums, depending on if I would listen to them again, so it's gonna be a little low, the overall rating. This song had a different vibe in a way, but still same basicness.
8th song, short one, it's upbeat. I heard Björk's like growl, and before that a voice crack. It's just too boring, it's objectively good for its times, but I can honestly say I hate this genre in this time.
9th song, I'm not looking at the lyrics because I don't think they're gonna be a masterpiece, plus it doesn't matter to me. It sounds same as the other songs, neutrally upbeat.
10th song, another interlude, nothing much or unique. Not even smth I would listen to when studying. Name is interesting tho, not sure why is it named that.
11th song, his voice is different, maybe softer a little. I'm again not impressed, it's expected though. Don't even know what to talk, since it's just not my cup of tea, it's kinda pointless me just saying how I do not like it in different forms...
12th song, his humming while saying "na-na", he has never done that here. He's humming at the end too, otherwise everything else sounded same.
13th song, mm different chords. Only guitar is playing. 14th song is an interlude too, it's short, but he's singing in it. It's noon and I'm gonna fall asleep.
15th song, I thought this was rolling stone's Angie original version. Apparently not, notes are very different and chaosy too. He isn't singing yet, and never he sang. I'm happy I'm done with it I must say.
Well I want to give this 2 stars, but for example Bob Dylan got 2 stars because of the way he used flute, it was magical in a way, everything else was bad(but I'm getting into him slowly). Thoughh Dion was worse than this, so I'm stuck about how to rate this. I thought and it's a 1 star album still, not influential to my taste at all.

Getz/Gilberto
Stan Getz
The album cover is weird, my first non English album I think. It's apparently jazz and samba and I'm all here for it, because it must be good.
First song, who doesn't know this title likee. I love his voice, it's soothing and much better than Bert Jansch, which I rated earlier and left me speechless in a bad way. I'm loving the vibe it's so a chill coffee shop cored. Omg the woman came in, it's even better now, and she's English too. The instrumental break is with a saxophone it's scratchy and enjoyable in a different way. Piano came in, I'm dancing to it, it's so funn. I loved this 9/10.
Second song, even better start, weird gibberish it was and not it's another language(I don't want to assume what it is). This is the best selling jazz album, and I can't disagree why it is. The saxophone came in and it's slaying. There is a constant beat in the background too, makes it richer. He sang a little non lyrical at the end and I alsoo loved this 9.2/10.
3th song, this is giving elevator music, if it was as perfect as it could be, I'm complementing it basically. His voice is so satisfying, and the constant beat, I love it. Saxophone came in and I had goosebumps, this is The quality jazz I didn't know I needed. Lyrics are not much, but not like that is what matters in this album. I'm IN LOVE WITH THIS ALBUM ALREADY. Piano was only at the end. 10/10 basically, not even gonna say 9.? for no reason.
4th song, so relaxing, I feel like I'm having a grand, classical talk with someone in a so very chill place, like, it's just THAT album, definitely will help me study too. Not gonna write much, just gonna enjoy it. Seeya. 10/10 obvi.
5th song, oh English Lady came back. The woman voice fits the jazz more sometimes too, so the fact that she's here is quite nice. Again not gonna talk much, I usually review how the instruments come in and basically I like writing what happens in the song, but I'd rather enjoy it now. 10/10.
I just read the 1 star complaints, and what I considered good on this, which was if elevator music was too good, or playing this at dinners, people saw it as a disadvantage. I mean this is much better than most punk rock albums, now that is pure noise, which I do like, but this one's otherworldly, it's still subjective I guess. I love the man's voice too, one of them didn't, I don't get it, I have heard bad voices and he isn't one of them. Also someone said, lyrics are pointless because it's Spanish and they doesn't understand them(not a grammar mistake), but they could have searched it online if so interested (not sure if it's available, but still)
6th song, didn't even notice it changed, since I was writing the paragraph above. Again amazing vibess, can't complain for a second, it is repetitive, but that makes it better. 10/10 all the wayy.
7th song, same good situation. So lovely to have found this album. The saxophone at the end was loudd. I am impressed by this song too, I just can't describe how I like it, it's just good, the beat, piano, saxophone, his voice, simple yet so great. Same rating as the others obviously.
8th song, I'm just too brought into this, I'm not gonna say anything, just the production is giving its best.
9th song, I thought album started over, apparently this is a shorter version of the first song, starting with the woman vocals. As good as possible.
10th song starts with woman voice. After the magnificent break he joined. It was too short, but oh well nothing lasts longer than it should.
I wish the album had more songs, but I will check his other albums, idk if he has many, but still. Anyway I reallyyy loved this, unique genre, have heard it before, but not this good apparently. Just gonna shortly say it was a 5 star album all the way through.

Deloused in the Comatorium
The Mars Volta
I'm not in the mood for metal and rock after the last album. I've seen this album cover, but never listened to the songs somehow, weirdd, I do like it tho, it's unique.
SHIT ON IT, I did a review of the first, second and third song and they are not here anymore, I'm a day late so I couldn't save it, ughh.
First song, was an interlude, great transition, nothing else happened, it was nice to hear it tho, some parts in it, otherwise nothing special.
Second song, I said he has a raspy voice, but not sure if I even know what that means. He sometimes sounds like a woman not in a bad way. I liked the instrumentals, gave it 7.1, not impressed I am.
Third song, it was slamming guitar and then it got slow, which was nice since it's rare. Then the beat drop was amazinggg. Otherwise it's quite same niceness. The chaotic singing is expected. Just realised this is 7 minutes, didn't even notice, since it is going smoothly. The slow part came backk. Lyrics are ending soon, and I expect an instrumental outro. Ooh the beat drop was again good. It switched from being slow to metal-ly and now it's jazzy slow, and that was the rest of the song. Solid 7/10, it's nice just not special.
4th song, it's an interlude, getting loudd it was chill before and one of the best build up transition I've heard for a while.
5th song, starting off with a beat drop from the last song continuation. I hear operatic voice of him, quite fun. Wow again 7 minutes. I don't know why this is here tbh. I'm not bored, just not impressed either. The instrumental fusion is great, but his voice is not the vibe at all, toooo basic, only when he sings in an opera way is his voice different, but not perfect. I'm not satisfied with this. I repeat that the guitar playing especially is great, just it doesn't sound different from what I've heard before. Mm I say 6.8/10.
6th song, loud start and slow continuation, not complaining. The slow part was really good, I got into the vibes, then after a short instrumental break his usual screaming-singing began and it became bland. After that it's break again, and I love the guitar here, also it's slow. I'm not gonna write, it was overly very good 7.9/10 seems valid.
7th song, 12 minutes?! What has he got to say this much. Last song had another better vibe into it. I'm not catching anything here. Oh, it fully stopped, and fast beat(helicopter like) is getting closer, it happened and guitars and his vocals came in. It was loud, but it's chill now, not much lyrics. It's getting weird now, not even a guitar playing. The loudness came back, not the best they have done. Lyrics are only at the very end, and it's much fast paced too. Overall I didn't like the fact that it was this long, not Pink Floyd, which I can stand in that matter. So sadly it's a 6/10.
8th song, it had a big intro, less loud than when lyrics came in, which is screamy. Guitars make different sounds in ears(left is louder). It was as relaxing as a rock could be, and now it's slow lyrically too, but it feels progressive, aaand yes it got fuller. The lyrics are catchy. What a weird ending, giving Björk. I'd say 7.8/10.
9th song, bird sounds. Unexpectedly slow, intro is also long, he joins in softly. This will get punky soon I think. It's still slow, I'm impressed. It's giving arcade fire with the instruments. There was one shirt part of him almost screaming, however, the guitar remained just a slight louder. Again weird outro, I'm giving this, one of the most uninteresting songs here, so 5.9/10.
10th song, screaming and classic rock vibes. Fun, nothing fully amazing, It could have been interesting if it stand out from the album.
Well I'm not amazed it was way too overused, the style and the sounds. I needed more. Anyways I rate it 3 stars and that's because I like the genre and this albums also had some unique stuff in it, which I liked.

The Wall
Pink Floyd
One of the best groups out there, I listened to one of their album already, and now this one might be a better one, judging from what I've heard. I'm not in the mood to check the lyric meanings so I'm just gonna enjoy it. Also there is three discs on Spotify (third not available for) and I read that there is 26 songs on the album, which is first two discs.
First song, it was quite slow and steady and then the dramatic beat came in with the guitar slamming and it's now ordered chaos. The guitar is definitely doing its job for my ears. Song is quite short. Lyrics came in, it's soft and guitar is gone, though piano makes constant beat. After the lyrics the guitar came back and it's playing in a head rocking way. Coming to endd, woooow I hear the ship and rocket sounds. Feels like vacuum cleaner turned off, and then baby crying, amazing transition to the next song. I don't think rating songs individually is logical here, Imma review the whole album at the end shortly.
Second song, Queen vibes. Piano and he's singing. This one is even shorter. The voice is in the right now. Guitar came back, almost as same as in the last song, just has more of a character now. Another transition to the next song, BEST THING AN ARTIST COULD DO.
Third song, this is the first part of the legendary song everyone knows, it's a slower version of it (to say it badly). Half song gone and no lyrics left. Guitars are playing different versions of same sound. Man said "hey", now children playing. It's chill, nothing's happening, but the guitar is veeery satisfying. Obviously a transition.
4th song, helicopter sounds, such a short song. Man was screaming, but also said something. Guitar has the beat of the third song. Lyrics are literal, about teachers who abused children. It's joker like singing now. Choir came in and getting to the end. OOOO LOVED THE TRANSITION.
5th song, THE SONG. It's very nostalgic too. As expected, children singing. I don't think this is the best song on the album, dunno yet just a theory, but even the songs I've listened to before this were equally good, just everything was less. Just perfect.
6th song, quirky start lyrics, oops I just read what it said, it was said in a goofy way, that's it. Now I see sadness in it. He said one part louder than the others. Ooh the weird instrumental addition, I love that, it's playing more now, it's a type of guitar, but obviously not sure. I love the melancholy that they put in this. Guitarical break. Mentioned a mother a lot of time, not complaining. The guitar, the beat, the piano in between, his voice it's just soothing and saddening too. Outro was even more raspy voiced and dark.
7th song, bird singing, and factory is working in the background. Little girl talked a little and THE MOST NOSTALGIC NOTES HIT ME, I've never heard this song before, why do I know this guitar notes, was it in a film maybe? I love the delivery of his first lyrics. Said a big sentence low-key fast, loved that. THE FUCKING GUITAR, I'VE HEARD THAT, IMMA CHECK, couldn't find anything.
8th song, violins I hear. Short song, both lyrically and by duration. Not a violin now that I've heard it more, it has an electric guitar vibe mixed with piano, and constant beat(idk of what). Deep voice he has here. WHAT A TRANSITION, THIS WAS A TWO MINUTE INTERLUDE BASICALLY.
9th song, more rocky and full sound in general. Even deeper voice now. His vocals are great too, not an amazing voice during it, but he pulls it off. The instrumental breaks are veeery nice to hear. Outro is a woman speaking formally on a telephone and its sounds too.
10th song, door closed, and some girl is talking about that room, which is full of guitars, she walked into. There is also a man speaking from the radio from the left. Lyrics came in. Less deep voice, more like soft and relaxing. WHAT the vibe fully changed, and now it's from glam rock to original rock. He's screaming-singing. The instrumental fusion is giving. Vocal outro, a looooooong one.
11th song, smooth transition as always. It's breathing sounds, piano in the background, two typed of piano sounds I hear. He's vocaling the lyrics. Long in between pauses. His voice seems sad. Low key slow jazzyness came in, veery slightly. WHAT A BEAT DROP (worst way to call it maybe idk) I expected it depending on the last song, but it's much better than I thought, just different level as always. Radio changing and people talking sound. Men screamed and fell(?) then there was breaking sounds, and a transition whohoo(writing this too fast to keep up with it.
12th song, the continuation of the mentioned legendary song. Lyrics are said in a same manner, but are different. The guitar was sooo good at one point. The fuck it's a different song, now didn't even notice. I loooved this one.
13th song, I love his voice here, there is a slight beat of the last song left in the background. His voice is coming from the right and he MUST use that voice more.
14th song, fully different vibe, ohh I think the disc changed, there was a transition, but not exactly. The more upbeatness in the second verse, plus the way it changed it, was chefs kiss. The instrumental break is magnificentt. It was a quick switch up to the lyrics. Less loud break. Last verse has the same vibe as the others, but it's progressive.
15th, aggressive tone. Bee noises. This one's dark and haunting. I'm having goosebumps what is this guitar notes, it's nostalgic yet I've never heard it before. Loved this track in a different way.
16th song, mf DOOM like start. It has a Elton John vibe in a good way, the way he sings. Now it was violins, which have gone very quickly, and came back(I think). First time he's talking this much. It's soothing and enjoyable, his voice. Vocals came in of his, women talking in the background, and the man too. Ended on a sad note.
17th song, women man talking contained, a bomb dropping sound. Now I call this the most melancholic he sounded so far. None of the songs were extremely long. It ended on a sad note too.
18th song, marching music, AND EPIC OPERATIC VIBE CAME. Feels like hymn singing. They samples themselves from that legendary song in the lyrics. The end felt like it should have been a transition, but it ended on that.
19th song, I'VE HEARD THIS ON THEIR ALBUM BEFORE THAT NOTE, IT'S GREAT GIG IN THE SKY, JUST BEFORE SHE TAKES OFF WITH THE LYRICS, THERE IS THIS SOUND. Dark side of the moon was made before this, so they just casually put this here too. He says lyrics differently, with am emphasis. He sings normally now, the instruments are melancholic, and glam rocked. Guitar break, it's nothing uniquely different. He talks here eveen more I think. The overall vibe has a Beatles-ness into it. Rest of the song is instrumental, and it's guitar playing rn. I loved the outro, I had to slow dance to it.
20th song(I know discs changed and the counting started again, but I prefer it this way), weird transition this one had. His lyrics were choiry, has a Queen song name. This one seemed like an interlude, it brought different sounds though.
21th song, guitar sounds nostalgic. It was upbeat, now it's choiry. He has a different voice(I've said this many times, I think there is one vocalist, whose name idk, and that's why I don't assume that different men sing it yk). Low key goofy way of saying some of Lyrics at the end, I liked the guitar chiming in and now it's only that, even better. EPIC OUTRO LITERALLY. People screaming Pink Floyd at the end.
22th song, what a beat, they haven't done that. It's guitar with another instrument coming in time to time, but often. Normal sound he had, the start vibe stayed. Saying "run" differently now. Second verse has this whiny(not exactly just can't remember another word for it) voice of him, which makes it more unique. Now the guitar is whining. Loved the more silent outro.
23th song, German counting at the start. The constant beat is so catchy, but his voice was sad. The voice type change after each line I think. "waiting" is the best part of the song, sooo much different, simple and catchy, along with that man was talking something. It's getting better and better. It's just that man talking now, I want that "waiting" to come. There is loud cheering sound, oh it was "hammer" saying.
24th song, 30 seconds?! Must be a good transition. It's sad with the piano too. It was nothing much just transitioned quite well. There is theatrical sounds, it's mischievous now. I hear theatre play vibes. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST, THE INSTRUMENTALS, DIFFERENT VOICES COMING IN. Violin came in, so more dramatical, but sad too. Children choir singing. It stopped and the villain like person is singing, IS THIS STILL PINK FLOYD?!! I LOVE THIS, I should check more theatrical stuff after this, apparently, didn't know I liked it. Why is this song here though, is it their made, or a sample? WOOOW THE ROCK SOUNDS CAME IN, ALONG WITH THE SOUND BEING EVEN MORE VILLAINY. I SHOULD BE ABLE GO WRITE THESE IN EVEN MORE UPPERCASE. THE ENDING IS THEM SCREAMING "TEAR DOWN THE WALL" AND THEN WALL TEARING DOWN. I'm confused, but in the best way possible, guess I should check what this "wall" symbolically means.
25th song, sounds like a nice movie ended in the best way possible, after some dramatic events, as if this wall being destroyed means that the good won(?). He's talking while there are children singing in the background as a choir. Now only the sound has stayed, and it's very melancholic. "is this where-" HE WAS SAYING SOMETHING, wonder what it was.
How do you expect me to like any albums after this by 5 stars. This was THE experience, I so want to listen to this again, and I will definitely do it, I hope. Last Pink's album was not it for me, it was veeery same throughout, but I'll check that out too later. Well, basically 5 stars isn't enough for this, but it's what it's. I want more albums like this here.

Pearl
Janis Joplin
I've heard of her and her amazing talent, btw not many women here, should be though. I expect different level of goodness here.
First song, I like the fast start it has a disco vibe low key. I love the constant beat. Her voice is also very Donna Summer. It's getting progressive. The guitar break, is mostly basic in rock albums, so same here, but it fills the song well. It went great into the last verse and the outro was as amazing as possible.
Second song, what a vocal start, kinda of a voice crack, maybe not, still good. Oh it got slow and romantic in a secondd. The beat goes up and then down, it has Madonna's \"back in business\" vibe in that sense. It's getting progressive and it hits the note with her vocals and the guitar. She fast talks now, funn, also has a Etta James like voice too. Typical outro, love that. I liked that ending \"yeah\" vocal. I'm having such funn.
Third song, it's slow already. She has a powerful voice, gotta love that at least. I'm not a fan of slow songs in rock, but this one has Elton John vibes, and the instrumental break is giving. It got too repetitive at the end, but that's the vibe I suppose. Not as good as the last two songs, but expected one.
4th song, disco vibes is back. She has a different was of vocalling now, more opera I see in some parts. Break is not basic, it has guitar and piano as I hear. I liked the guitar riffs here, and her chaotic singing. The piano chiming in was also quite nice. Outro is as it mostly was in the 1970s. Basically I'm enjoying this tooo much.
5th song, it's veeery funky and danceable already. I think it's instrumental, but I doubt it. There are many instruments in different ears they appear mostly. Yes it's instrumental, and as the title suggests it's blues. Such energyy, loved this, but I need another version with lyrics.
6th song, less fast. The guitar and piano are perfect with each other here, it's full andd fills my ears differently. Choir came in for one part only. Short instrumental break, which has an amazing beat, with the guitar riffing. It stopped, made me think it was done, and it's going, after break it's a little slower. Outro is, as always, the song fading away.
7th song, guitar start, it's upbeat, and has 4 non blades vibe. The beat came in after some lines and now it's even more perfect. Love her voice generally. The bridge is "la-da-da" which I thought would be upbeat, but it's even better and it's slowly getting faster, it ended, however that was quite catchy and a great way to transition to the last verse, which has a faster beat. Outro is one of the best instrumental here.
8th song, she said what the song is about at start. It's a cappella with a little beat in the background, oh it's a short song, might stay like this. It was clean and I loved that, basically a great way to experience her voice. She said "that's it" and laughed a little at the end, such funn.
9th song, forgot to take notes, oops. It's going too great, as expected. It's upbeat, and has a progressive vibe in some parts. Her powerful voice is more present here. Couldn't expect any more betterness from her at this point.
10th song, literal blues start, the piano chords I mean. It's upbeat, but also downtempo. The beat is not different from other songs, third note hits louder than the two before. Instrumental break, pardon me, was edging at the end, which made it better I must say. Outro and she's getting louder and saying as much as possible. I wish this wasn't the last song.
Definitely a vibe, and just because of this album, I want to check her other stuff, but idk which of her albums are here, not that it matters tho, I'll listen to it twice if needed. Basically, 5 stars, most of them were bops, slow ones weren't painful, and this kind of psychedelic rock is the best one so far.

Hysteria
Def Leppard
Album cover is giving metal, and I was right about that. Have never heard of them and I'm in the mood for loud sounds so here we go.
First song, powerful start. It is two step beat and the second one is louder. Ouu it's not screamy metal, he sings normally, but does talk louder in some lines. Definitely liking the guitar and the beat that makes it richer. Amazing chorus. I like his voice too. I expected this to be hard listening, but it ain't. Head banging sounds, soo good. Instrumental break was a perfect addition after the verse. I'm done, this is such a banger can't get enough of it. Also LOVED THE WAY HE SAID "WOMEN" AND "MEN" SUCH FUN.
Second song, rocky start, but there was a radio talking before it. Vocalising now, not a good voice, but that doesn't matter. I love the fast beat, it's so catchy. Great chorus too, not better than the last one, but I'm loving it. Fully different vibe with the constant beat, it's giving Indian music if it was rock. One of the amazing instrumental breaks right here just because of how unique it is. Louder guitar slamming, aaand back to the original instrumental chords, lyrics came in and everything is in order now. In the outro they mixed all the sounds they have used chaotically, however, in order.
Third song, it's nothing drastically different from other rock songs, first verse I mean. Ohh chorus is catchy and interesting, the lyrical flow is good too. Other two songs stand out more, though the chorus here is veeery good, I would scream along with it. Instrumental break fits the overall vibe in the song, which they haven't done before exactly, and transitions greatly into the chorus. There was a skip, and then chorus continued quickly.
4th song, slow start with different instruments. It became upbeat, but it's still downtempo, in the chorus. I love their style, it's so karaoke cored. It's break and I feel like some guy is like "ah ah ah ah", satisfying low key. The chorus has the same vibe with how lyrics were said as in before songs. The break was kinda basic. It has a Micheal Jackson vibe, the way he emphasises on some words, and beat hits hard. Robotic sounds at the end.
5th song, nostalgic start, sounded smth I've heard before. Gun shot beats. Hip hop cored singing, I always love that in rock. He's basically talking fast though. First time here, when I liked the verse more than the chorus, which is not as interesting and unique as the verse. Chorus seems more interesting second time, buut the both verses were way more better. Break was not as good as the other mentioned ones before. The last verse was veery good, too. Outro seems like it's gonna be repeating chorus.
6th song, it's a classical rock now. Nothing dramatically different from what I've already heard. Apparently this is glam metal and I so agree. It's not the kind of metal I expected. The chorus is catchy, and has a Beatles vibe slightly. "Are you gettin' it" and "Armageddon it" WHAT A RHUME, just realised. They have a memorable vibe, and a way of displaying titles in the songs very well. Break was very short, it isn't even a break tbh. It slowly faded away with the chorus.
7th song, I haven't this much for a long time here. Slow and constant sound start. Some nature-like sounds, and now people marching ones too. Such a New Order beat drop, I expected harder than that, but nope, which was better. Ohh, it's getting progressive, and harder too. The singing sounds like other songs, so not a stand out, so chorus here is better than the verse. They do short lyrics in the chorus, which in the long run sounds better, he says something the guitar goes on and so on, quite classic way of rock too, gotta love that(btw these are all imo, and based on what I've listened to before). Men talking and bombs dropping and exploding sounds at the end.
8th song, definitely a bop already. It's kinda basic, and less unique compared to the other songs, but I get the vibe depending on the fact I've been listening to them for some time now. This was the worst song I've heard here, but it doesn't mean it was bad, it was just worse than the other ones. The break is giving here more than in others though. Outro edged me, AAND IT WAS A TRANSITION TO THE
9TH SONG, hard start. He's screaming already too, low key blues vibe, but it's metal cored, the lyrics in () are one of the best and catchy ones on this album. Love the chorus too, I'm gonna enjoy the song and then write down notes this time. I LOVED THE START OF THE INSTRUMENTAL BREAK, BUT IT DIDN'T LAST LONG. Otherwise it's a masterpiece from every angle.
10th song, HELLO I KNOW THIS BEAT, IS IT A SAMPLE OR ORIGINALLY THEIRS? JUST REMEMBERED, I LISTENED TO IT YESTERDAY, IT SOUNDS LIKE PINK FLOYD'S "goodbye blue sky". Thing is it sounded familiar even when I listened to Pink too, too nostalgic. Now the song, it had that beat at the start mode. Now it's fully different vibe, but not complaining, it progressed well. Beat came back and I love itt.
11th song, WHAT ARE THESE SOUNDS, IT'S AND I'M SCARED, IT'S GETTING FAST AAAAAAAH. Awesome start, the deep voice it getting faster, just too unique. Sounded like Darth Vader too. Overall the song is too good I must say. Not very, but still progressive, he started screaming for a moment. Outro was chorus fading away.
12th song, this has Cher's "love and understanding" vibe based on the title only tho, the genre is totally different. Less unique, but still worth it, this song is. Break isn't giving, I wanted more. Chorus isn't catchy and sounds like a verse almost, but that's something too in a good way.
Basically, 5 star album instantly, I expected much worse than this since I didn't know the artist and metal can be hard to listen to, but luckily I was ready for worse and got the one I wanted more, soo yea I vibed with every song as much as it needed me to.

Don't Stand Me Down
Dexys Midnight Runners
Never heard of them, the cover is intriguing and can't wait I guess to listen to it.
First song, slow start, but his voice made it less slow. I like new waveness here. His way of singing is weird, in a good way I suppose. He has vocals, not good, but still. He's talking now with others, it's somehow fun. Background melody is nostalgic because of that instrument. Why did he talk so much. Back to his vocals. He's so British while saying "burning". Instrumental break is funky to me. Long outro, however, fun in a way. Ohh a transition.
Second song, it's talking, but no music behind it, also 12 MINUTES? Better not be talking all this time. The talking was a intro to the song, he has a soft Elvis Presley voice now. I'm loving this song better than the last one. I think it'll get faster at some point. YES I WAS RIGHT, beat instruments and melody came back fast. He's vocalising a lot and I like that. The overall vibe is veery interesting and makes me love the genre even more. He's just vocaling now, but harder. Talking came back, idk if it has a meaning, I just know it's about a girl. Beat stopped and I'm halfway through. Piano playing, choir like singing, it got slow basically, OOH the beat drop was unexpected. It's even faster now and he sings like that too, the choir is in the background now. Another sudden stop, violin like thing was playing, and THEN BEAT DROPPED AGAIN AND NOW PIANO IS PLAYING WITH OTHER INSTRUMENTS. This is not one song tbh. Talking came back, and the melody behind it is sooo fun. It's not repetitive at the end, I thought at first, but it changes the constant beat instrument in between. Outro is long, but necessarily long. LOVEED EVERYTHING HERE.
Third song, slow piano start, the beat came in, a guitar I hear(not sure), some more instruments, and lastly his soft voice. I thought there would be beat drop, but it's better this way, slow and steady. Gibberish singing now. This is the kind of song to slow-dance with someone. Slow violin came in now. The overall vibe is veeery different from the last song, and that makes it better tbh, the diversity. Outro is mostly piano, basically loved this as much as possible.
4th song, it's guitar and the beat, and him talking for now. It's monotonous and the same vibe at the start, and he mixes singing and talking, one after the other. Vibe stayed the same, so I didn't like the repetitiveness, but it was okay song, second one is unmatched I guess. Outro was loud, otherwise nothing much.
5th song, talkiiing. There are different instruments here, don't know that names of, a piano I hear now. It's a rather short song. Only talking it will be I guess. Vocals came in. I'm low key bored by this, beat got louder and he's vocalising more. Not bad, outro made it better.
6th song, finallyyy some fast music. This one is short too compared to others. Much better than the last two songs I think. It got slow and fast in a second. The constant beat makes it better. I hear jazz too in the background, and the piano is pianoing. Outro was nice too.
7th song, 8 fucking minutes. The name suggests some goodness. It's slow and soft for now. There is a violin, and a tu tu TU beat. It's annoyingly slow rn, must be progressive. It's still slow(I don't like labelling songs like this, but it's what it's). Another instrument came in, which I weirdly like. It is slower now I think, I do like it a little tho, it just shouldn't be this long. I'm kinda bored, but I also would use this vibe to be chill and not think about anything, so that's something. Outro is jazzy and I guess that's it, Imma review it not all together.
Second song was veeery good and because of that I was gonna rate it 4 stars, but then I thought 3 stars would be better, however this is a grower album I think, so I'll stick with 4 stats, dunno if I would listen to this again, but it's giving in its way.

The Atomic Mr Basie
Count Basie & His Orchestra
Fuck this shit I forgot to save what I wrote ughhhhh. Basically never heard of them big band jazz must be cool I'm expecting something fun, since I like jazz and it's not rock as it is typically here.
First song, it was catchy got to repetitive at some point, but overall I reaaaly enjoyed the piano and the trombone thingy. It was chill, but the dramatic parts made it better, definitely something I'd put on in the background, or when I'm doing something, it's not distracting, thoughh gets interesting.
Second song, was too long I must say, I got a little bored. It low key has some animation background vibe iykyk. The outro was amazing. Piano and the trombone were doing great here as well, but this one was louder, so not chill, but it still is very nice to hear, enjoying it so far.
Third song, OH, nostalgic start, I've heard those notes somewhere. Ooh getting better with the new instruments. It's less loud. The background instrument is fun, but even more fun is the saxophone solo rn. Piano time, also chill, and there was no beat change, and there won't be I suppose. I want more ordered chaos next.
oh I also said that about the first song, it was calm, but chaotic too.
4th song, fast start, movie vibes, old one. The instruments are better in this one than the last one. The solos are even more interesting to hear too with the background ones especially. It's the same vibe now, I think if it's gonna be this long, it gotta have some beat change, though that's the point that it's same, and not progressive for no reason. Liking it less, but still jazz is jazzing.
5th song, slow start, but it got fast with that one instrument with the dramatic sound. I think I'm just not in the mood for this, I'll continue listening later, I wanna dance to this and I'm in bed, so will do this tomorrow. I'm back, and Imma start with the next song instantly
6th song, typical loud start. It's vintage, and I definitely feel the big band vibe. Would be definitely used of Pink Panther, or such kind of stuff, orr I also remember this vibe from the old moviess. Ohh right, Merilyn Monroe would sing to this perfectly. I'm getting it, and this could be my jazz awakening. Imagine if there were transitions, and the whole album was just one big song.
7th song, same kind of start, and it's going well, oh piano wasn't used in the last song, good to hear it again. The solo of the saxophone is the best part here, more consistent and less chaotic, butt I do like the chaos here, just it's not the best. It's getting faster and funkier, loving that. I think I've said this, but if I didn't, I need a version of this album with vocalss, would fit the vibe and make it more interesting, but I also want this.
8th song, slightly longer it is. Piano solo now. The start was loud as I remember, mix of instruments and went into the piano, and it's still playing beautifully. I think if this is nostalgic to someone, they experience this album in a much better way, like knowing what the next notes and instruments are gonna be, first listen is just not it. This one is less chaotic.
9th song, oooh this is a fancy start. This is quite more chill and dinnery. No random outbursts of the instruments, which idk if it's good or not, but it's definitely different. Ohh nvm outburst came in and it lasted longg. The piano is the best part here. I'm not impressed by this as much.
10th song, piano start and only piano for now. I hear the drum like sound in the background. Oooh saxophones came in (dunno the names of that instrument types so). The solo is great, not, per se, unique, but it's something, especially with the drums. Whole orchestra came in. This didn't stand out I must say.
11th song, oh it's melancholic for the first time. No piano here. It's quite slow, and the way they play is giving something. Charlie Chaplin's sad parts of the movie vibe, like him just walking, because something happened to him that made him feel down yk. Now this one didn't have any outbursts, also it stand out, because it was the most different one.
Well even though I am not exactly WOWed rn, I like jazz, and this old way of jazzing especially by a big band is giving, I can't rate this 3 stars, it's too Goldie oldie yk, but it's not perfect, soo 4 stars is the best solution here. This is either an amazing background album, or a dance one.

Low
David Bowie
I LOVEE BOWIE. Though I haven't listened to an album fully I always liked his style, sadly or not I know only sound and vision from this album and even that is from 2017 remaster, I'm gonna try the 1999(this) remaster, because it might sound better, I will maybe listen to the 2017 one to compare idk.
First song, loud and fast paced start with the instruments. It is progressing, and I'm loving that. I like the unique melody he creates here. I think it's the interlude intro so, that is just repeating over and over, until it progresses. Is there a transition? This was quite nice, I hope that it's not mostly instrumental, but I don't mind that either.
Second song, short it is. I like his voice here, it's raspy(?). The lyrical delivery is fun too. The instruments are in great fusion, guitar on the left and drums on the right, I think.
Third song, finally a full song. Ohhh I love his voice here. It's chaotic with the guitar, and some instrument on the right. It's so fast, it's already a instrumental break, ohh I loved that guitar slamming. It's going veeery good. It's fun, I suppose catchy too. Next ones better be better than this.
4th song, not much lyrics here, but the song is 3 minutes, which is the longest he has done here for now. Pardon me, he moaned rn, he did it again. The "doo doo"s came in. Ohh he has a deep voice now. I love that sound in the left side, it sounds like fire burnt out, but repeating that sound once in a while, that's the best part here. OMG I'M SO DUMB, THIS IS THE SONG I KNOW, I haven't listened to it for a long time I forgot, and I was too caught up writing here to realise what I was listening too, well definitely good it was.
5th song, this one's more glam rock. It's progressive a little. The instrumental break is faster than the way he said lyrics before it. The drum beat is basic, but catchy. It's mostly guitar here, but it's vibey. The outros here were, as usual, the songs slowly fading.
6th song, oooh a little faster this one is. The pre chorus is catchy, nvm THE chorus is catchier, or is it verse, I'm confused, but I know that I mean so. Half the song is instrumental I think. It ended on the best lyrical delivery, I wish that continued.
7th song, spooky and downtempo start. It got progressive and now many instruments create an ordered chaos, I hear Bob Dylan's magic instrument here(flute(?)). Now it's only beat, with some violin like sound. And the chaos comes back again, it's giving western, but if it was a happy place. This song has the best instrumentals in my opinion, it was funky, fun, kind of ghostly too at the start.
8th song, ohhh 6 minutes, and it's instrumental choir rn. There is a weird alien like sound of an instrument. It's getting vikingy. Violin came in, nice touch, love that. It's spooky and a veery fascinating intro, wonder how he says the lyrics. It's permanent wave now, but I still like that longness, it's melancholic too, there could be a meaning behind this, but lazy to check it. Ohh the lion king scar sounds. Then he sang in a different language operatically. Now a woman voice, a vocalist she is, and from some culture I don't recognise, it's gypsy vibes low key. The growling voice was fantastic. Now they're gone and back to melancholia. Felt like a movie scene, after some dramatic thing happened. Impressive I'd say at the end.
9th song, weird space like sounds, I do love those. What is this instrument, also the constant beat that thing is making in the background. Mischievous vibes, but also not, because it's quite slow and not that villainy. Another constant sound came in, it progressed, it got downtempo and isn't the main attraction anymore. Pink Floyd vibes, if only it was a transition too.
10th song, it's an instrumental, I do wonder that the original song is with lyrics, because I LOVEE THE INSTRUMENTAL FUSION HERE, it's kinda giving Björk. Fully different sounds this one has, it's childish in the best way possible. The constant beat that I hear from right and left are perfect. Operatic vocals came in, and it's folky now, whistle sound has been going on for a looong time now. This just seems artistic, idk in what way though. Pluss it's quite unique with the flow of the sounds.
11th song, the vibe is veery different from what is was before, which was rock and roll mostly, now it feels like another album. This one's long too. The mentioned lion king scar voice returned in an opera way. Ohh the jazz I hear now, why would he do that only now. This is, not as a degradation, a background music, I would use for when I'm doing something that needs concentrating yk. The lyrics came in, and it's very folky and vikingy, if only there was this constant growl, then that would be more like it, but this is more Bowie cored. Outro is jazz mostly, nevermind Scar came back.
I'm very confused, I didn't expect this from Bowie, the too much monotonousness, though I was gonna rate this 4 stars, since it's Bowie, and I love her, I'm gonna be subjective and give him 5 stars. I'm sure there'll be other albums of him here, can't wait for that.

Arrival
ABBA
ALREADY 5 STARS, ONE OF MY FAVOURITE BANDS, WHO I LOVEE, FROM MY CHILDHOOD TO THIS DAY. Literally, I've heard a lot of them, Beatles, deep purple, Queen, and many others when I was a child, ABBA is simply THAT group. I am a gradual adder of songs so I don't know all of their songs(I know about 90 or more), so I don't know only three songs here, others are bangers, however, my upcoming review of each song will be as objective as I can(or not).
First song, I LOVEE THIS SONG, probably will say that about each of them tbh. It starts slow and then transforms into a wholly fun and boogie experience, when I first heard this, I was really feeling the energy, it's just perfect, even if the lyrics are a little weird, thoughh I know it by heart, and it's not that bad when I've already sang it out loud a lot. I love the after chorus slow down, it's getting back to how it started. THE INTRO IS SOO GOOD TOO, like much different from the whole song, but it's just fun in the best way possible. I would talk more, but I'd rather dance and sing with them.
Second song, THE CLASSIC OLD GOLD SONG, it may be overplayed, but it's one of the best songs one could hear, and a great start for a non-ABBA fan. Also the lyrics of this are quite depressing in a way, because they are basically indicating that they are no longer dancing queens and are watching that one girl, so it's all about perspective, but it's all in my opinion and what I've heard online. In the last chorus they sing it more passionately and I LOVEEE THAT. Also every song at the end fades away, as it is expected from this time.
Third song, ohh I don't know this one, I'm adding it to my Spotify liked songs tho. It's quite slow for now. I love her vocals here. The chorus is gonna be very good I sense it, oooo it transitioned into it very well. This is all the way slow, I mean I wouldn't expect if they just made this disco after the intro yk. This is underrated tbh, it's like transcending in a way. It's quite melancholic and I'm here for it.
4th song, OOOH ONE OF MY FAVS, this is a horny song for me. She sings about a man who plays his violin and she wishes she was that violin, as in to be close to him in a way. Silly little song this is, plus it's catchy and just I could not not love this. Also the instrumentalss, abba just does them in a very good unique way.
5th song, NOW THIS IS MY JAMM, it's my childhood song too, when that chorus instrumental hits, I go back to my house when I was dancing with my family in the living room with the speaker all the way up, thing is I'm not even old. THE WHISPERING, ONE OF THE BEST PARTS HERE. The ending of the second verse is sooo good and the lyrical delivery is perfect. I also love that Björn and Benny are here too, they rarely show up so. This is so sad lyrically, yet It's so disco cored, and danceable as fuck. That guitar riff at the end is also very memorable for me. JUSTT PERFECT.
6TH SONG, WHO DOESN'T KNOW THIS SONG, it's soo catchy, the instrumentals, the lyrics. I've played this song over and over too much for as long as I'm alive. I wish there were more songs like this from other artists(there probably are but still, like this mischievous vibey one). Just before the last chorus comes in there is this beat drop, I ADORE AND LIVE FOR IT, plus the outro has that kind of vibe too. I will always love this album with all my heart(not only this one though.
7th song, weird thing that this has no chorus, yet it's veeery catchy and monotonous yet progressive in a way. THE BRIDGE IS SOOO MAGNIFICENT. I love how melancholic the instrumentals can get if you pay attention, like at the end after she repeats carrie thing, it gets kinda sad, additionally the outro has the same thing injected in it. Basicallyyy I was also addicted to this song.
8th song, EVERYONE SINGS HERE, I love that about it. Also I love the lyrical delivery of "I only wanted a little love affair" it scratches my brain every time I hear it. I so know these lyrics too. Its instrumentals are unique to me also.
9th song, LOVE THE VOCALS HERE. The lyrics are literally about a tiger, unless there's a deep meaning in it. I love the changes in this song, it's fast and all mostly, then there's this post-chorus, which is much slower and idk why I couldn't remember those lyrics. Love love the Outro of vocalss.
10th song, first time hearing this. Ohh it's an instrumental. Well it's very ABBA. It's so Swedishh, that instrument, idk how to say it in English, is definitely the main attraction here. The vocals are a nice touch too. It's also quite melancholic in its fashion.
11th song, SUCH NOSTALGIAAA. I love the chorus here, but the build-up with the verse is also quite amazing. The vocals are astounding to me, the angelic voices of them is just too good for this world. Apparently this is Anni-Frid's solo song which then appeared here, I do listen to both Agnetha's and Frida's solo songs, I just love their voices too much.
12th song, also first time hearing this. OUUU I LOVED THAT BEAT CHANGE. IT'S SO ABBA, OH MY GOD IT'S "why did it have to be me". I DIDN'T KNOW I WOULD LOVE THAT SONG EVEN MORE, but a whole different lyrics, I'm amazed. Plus it has summer vibes, makes it much better too. This actually shouldn't be on arrival, the song I mentioned replaced this, but I'm very glad I found this, it's a gem indeed. Oh the outro is instrumental, which is rare from ABBA.
I AM IN LOVE WITH ABBA EVEN MORE. I've never listened to the whole of their album, but I have listened to them this much time just chose what I wanted to play most of the time. Anywayyy as I said 5 stars, and I'm gonna rate many of my favourite groups like this without no question.

Le Tigre
Le Tigre
LOVEE THE COVER. I don't know that on the left side is, but it seems artistic, plus them being on the right, as if I bought that yellow thing and their faces came along with it. It's punk rock as I've checked so I might not find it as fun as I think, but I'm with an open mind.
First song, Oh what a familiar start, I've heard it somewhere. Oh the voice is like Kate Bush almost, but it's more rocky. I think it's a boy singing, so he screamed for a moment. OMG I'VE HEARD THAT INSTRUMENTAL RIFF SOMEWHERE. Ohh the first part got extended now. Outro is quite weird, but I love it.
Second song, what a funky start. It's veery chaotic, I love it, I mean there's two voices colliding. He should scream more, it fits the vibe. The guitar is giving. It's getting kind of repetitive, I was more impressed at start. Ohh SO NEVERMIND THIS IS MADONNA'S VOGUE CORED SAYING THE NAMES, WHO INSPIRED THEM, SUCH FUN. Didn't expect this tbh.
Third song, talking hmm. It's progressive, but in a different way. I love this so much. It's unique, like not some basic rock, it's the way they sing, and background instruments deliver. What are these dog sounds at the end.
4th song, he is low key screaming here, and barely can hear any words. They love adding a background voice when he's singing. Another chaotic song tbh. This was as well different from what I've heard ever, I mean I have, but Le Tigre just does it better.
5th song, some talking at the start. I don't think it's a boy now, pardon me. She sings less chaotically, but there's this beat that is louder than her. I'm not getting the vibe here. I love that instrument, which is the best part here, but otherwise it's... Umm I'm kinda liking this now that I'm listening to it. It was monotonous too much I'd say. Breaking glass sound at the end.
6th song, Depeche Mode vibes. It's melancholic in a way. Instruments are louder than her, even when she's singing. I'm not impressed, but I love that background sound of that guitar, the one that was at the start. Mother Mother has this vibe, I think. Quite nice, I'm loving this experience so far.
7th song, a much fast paced start. It's definitely a girl singing. It's progressive, there are so many weird sounds here, that makes it much better, rather than basic rock songs as I've said already. The instrumental break was short, but it was giving, now the outro, it's too good.
8th song, Ooo the funkiness here is quite nice. Definitely a bop, the lyrical delivery is just amazing. I'm in love with this artist, they bring these rebel-like songs, which just makes me take a different look at other music.
9th song, I LOVE THE START. It's not going as good as I want it to. This better get more interesting than this, it's too permanent wave rn. Well I guess that's the whole song, well I expected more. The instrumental break is nice, but in the overall sense boring(it was short too so can't really judge it). This is a no for me.
10th song, vibey start. Weird sounds as always. It has a hip hop beat almost. WHO IS THIS MAN. Oh the whole song is that, instrumental then it stops and men talks, which is a sample, but it actually happened, and then instrumental again. Oh they used song when they were presenting a slideshow, makes sense now. I'm weirded out by those glass breaking sounds.
11th song, it's a dramatic sound. Ooo I love this kind of lyrics, just saying things. I LOVE THE MEANING OF THIS, it's them making fun of someone who thinks that things she is saying about him is interesting, but it ain't. This is very rare for me to check the meanings, but this artist is just asking for it. Also she has a bored voice here on purpose, love that.
12th song, quite a different vibe. Mmm I'm not impressed. The chorus isn't chorusing. Though this has a Björk vibe in a way, which I like, but I need more from them now that I've seen their best songs. Oh that was the last song, welll I wanted moreee.
Directly gonna say that it was a 5 star album, even though some tracks were not as good, some were too good and unique. I just like things that sound and seem more artistic in a way yk, this has that vibe, so I feel like maximum rating is fair.

Revolver
Beatles
LOVEE THE BEATLES, MY ANOTHER CHILDHOOD BAND. I've never listened to this album fully, and not know many of the songs either, so this'll be a fresh experience, can't waitt.
First song, counting it started with. It's quite like them now. I like the loud guitar. They did the chorus quite early. Ooo I like that part, "car (Car)", it's catchy. It's kind of repetitive tho, I hope the whole album isn't like this, because I want more uniqueness from them. The break was fun, but short. Overall I like this powerful rock vibe, just next must be more.
Second song, OOOOUU THIS IS THEE SONG RIGHT HERE. No one dare call this a tiktok song, it was perfect before it too. It's quite melancholic and the slight violin is great. Quite different from the last song.
Third song, this is another level good. I like the lyrical delivery. The instrumental break, oh mistaken, there was not that, it was just a pause apparently. The Beatles weirdness came in, it sounded like a guitar which plays backwards. The background vocals are a nice touch I must say. I liked this more than the first one.
The 4th song, I know this one, the first Asian like beat is very unexpected from them I think, so that hooked me once I suppose. Also songs are quite short. That beat is the main part here, and he's singing in the tone. The break was the extended version of the starting beat (idk the instrument pardonn). The outro is finally an outro, oh it's getting progressive, aand it faded away.
The 5th song, different voice he has here, more soft and melancholic. I like this the best here. The way he says the lyrics attracts my ears. The guitar isn't really important, but there's this one note it's taking loudly, otherwise it's insignificant.
The 6th song, OHH ANOTHER THE SONG, my childhood is upon me with this one I must say. It's very ear pleasing. Bird like sound I heard. That slight trumpet is so good and underused here. That talking of some captain always scratched my brain in a bad way. I LOVE THAT GUY WHO REPEATS AFTER THEM, HIS VOICE I LIKE MAYBE.
The 7th song, chaotic guitar. There are short breaks after some lines. The singing is nice, though I'm not hooked, I'm too used to their voice not to like it. The vocals throughout the album weren't much, but the ones that were were quite remarkable.
The 8th song, oh the guitar is guitaring here, ohh I thought this was gonna be sad, but it's not. Ooh it's funn, the way he sings. The piano is veeery addictive here. The title repeating is the worst part, other ones were much more catchy and interesting.
The 9th song, upbeat start, "you don't get me" the second he said sounded better like lyrically, because he did emphasis on "me", I think. Outro is different with that weird instrument, otherwise the song was fine, It's definitely a grower.
The 10th song, veeery short this one. The break is melancholic in a way. It's sad overall too, though there's this upbeat guitar. It should have been longer, I can't enjoy short songs, because I can't get to know them well.
The 11th song, It is very Beatles like this one. The guitar is the best part here, it drops the beat(dunno other way to say that) just before he says "doctor Robert" and it's too good. I usually talk a lot, but the shortness of the song limits me.
The 12th song, the piano guitar fusion is quite interesting here. I'm not impressed tbh, this should be either longer or catchier, because the only thing I like here is their voice and the instruments, I dunno what else there should be, but it ain't for me for now.
The 13th song, rumba vibes at start, now this is fun and fascinating. The trombone thingy is veery good here. It's upbeat, but much better than that tbh. The break was the same instrumentals just without the lyrics. I like his screaming here, not a metal scream though. The outro gets funkier and fades away.
The 14th song, the start hooked me, and it's going well now. 3 minutes this one is, the longest I think, mistaken 3rd and 4th songs are 3 minutes too. Well outro is something, repeating, which was enjoyable this time. Only the start was spectacular here tbh.
Well, despite my criticism I was gonna give this 4 stars, but since it's The Beatles, one of my favourite groups, I give it 5, I know one day I'll love this song, so I'm getting ahead of myself, it's definitely a grower and soon enough, as with other albums here, I will come and check it again.

Slayed?
Slade
Never heard of them, but they seem rocky. What type of gen z name is that, I know it has a different meaning but like "slayed?", they really must slay just because of being that cunty. Anyway starting off with
First song, they are rock, but it started off with them screaming already. It's fun, I like the energy they bring, the verse was better than the chorus. It's quite basic tho I must say, howeverr, this is such a karaoke like song, knowing the lyrics and head banging uncontrollably to it too. Overall I'm not impressed yet.
Second song, this one had a Beatles vibe definitely, just it's too hard. It started off in an interesting way. I don't like their voice, but I appreciate the effort they put into this. The instrumental break is so dad rock, it went on perfectly too. Their live concert must have been full of energy. I liked the screaming here. Outro made the song fade away. I'm not feeling this, because there are too many bands like this already, but in their time, it must have been something unique.
It's the kind of songs that you need to know from your childhood to actually like it, I love many Beatles songs because they are nostalgic to me.
Third song, this one's less screamy, and I guess that's better. The instrumental break is the best part here. The "la la"s are not as good as expected, though it's something different so I'll take it. It's not catchy, but I'm not annoyed either.It's not necessarily bad, I would never want to listen to this again tho. Pixes vibe, just realised, with those screams.
4th song, the start is quite energetic, and it goes with that beat whole song I assume. Not many lyrics. It sounds the same, it's expected though. "'appen" first time hearing happen said like that. Lyrics are basically done and only instrumentals are gonna be next I guess. I was mistaken, Spotify just didn't put other lyrics, because they repeat I think. The instrumentals were the best part, still I'm not entertained enough.
5th song, OOOH I WAS GONNA SAY IN THE LAST SONG IT HAS JANIS JOPLIN VIBE, AND NOW HER COVER. I've listened to Janis's album, and it was soo good, but Slade doesn't have the voice I liked in there, though the album has Janis injected into it. I very much prefer Janis's one still, her voice is just differently good for me.
This type of thing happened when I found out Bob Dylan is the original singer of "make you feel my love", I only knew Adele sang it.
6th song, classy start, almost typical. Beatles vibe, with those lyrical delivery. This one's interesting, I like it more than others. Chorus is the best part here. The verses are fine, especially that "T'Jane" pronunciation. It faded away. Well this one is the best one here for now.
7th song, hard start. Verse is goood, it's Beatles, but screamy. The beat behind is so fun to pay attention to. The "bye bye" part is so weirdly put in. They mentioned the word "Gudbye" in two songs already, they do love wordplay in their way. The second half of the song, is basically the same, but there is this instrumental break, and more chorus. Well I do love the almost overpowering lyrics here.
8th song, doesn't sound any different. The last two songs did. Chorus is not for me. The second verse has this clap sound, and it fits quite well, that's the best part here too. Chorus for choiry now. I'm not moved.
9th song, it's slow, almost arctic monkeys' vibe. I'm kinda sick of this, and I can't even dance to it, to make this less boring. Imma listen to this tomorrow then.
10th song, I'm starting fresh. That scratchy voice is interesting almost like Janis Joplin, but a man. The instrumental break is loud, but in a good way. It's not Dion bad at least, it's just something I wouldn't listen to again. They can do better than this.
11th song, the verse and the intro are quite basic, but there is this intonation change I like. Now the chorus is catchy and rhymey. Interesting lyrics in a way. The post-chorus is veery fun. This was one of the best because of the chorus.
12th song, I fell asleep, it is mostly instrumental, but when it wasn't it was an usual rockish song, not amazed by lyrics or production.
13th song, it's too slow, I can say that definitely. The instrumental break is melancholic, but in a guitar way. Sounds like a ballad, not bad because of that, it's just insufferable for me right now. I say that I prefer fast and energetic ones here.
14th song, ohh this one has the energy absolutely. The chorus sounded like a verse for a second. Even though the name of it is quite attractive, it isn't as good as I wanted it to be. Guitar was the best part, the voice already is getting on my nerves, I need another perspective for this album, like I have to see this songs somewhere else and then I'll realise if they're actually good, I'm too objective now that is.
15th song, forgot to say stuff about it. I don't really have anything else to say. Everything is quite the same even in this song. The name is quirky, but not the song surely. I like the guitar only here, again.
16th song, I think these are those expanded version songs. This one's melody sounds like SpongeBob. Oh this is definitely not their style, I love this. It's jazzy, but like Broadway cored. He isn't screaming and making just pure noise. This is the best song yet, I just realised that the rockishness was the thing that annoyed me. The violin is doing its jobb. It's so simple, yet fun.
17th song, and the best vibe is gone. It was screaming, but now there's this talking, which I didn't expect at all, it decreases the volume of the song. There is two songs in this because of that "/". It's actually him talking, I prefer him screaming without the instruments, much more powerful. This song has changed its course 3 times already, I love it. Slow, talking, fast, instruments, screaming, I wonder what's next. They're thanking us, basically this is credits as if it was a film. Thing is I consider this as the most diverse song here. It's instruments now only, mostly guitar, oh the voice came in. Basically that's it I think, Imma just finaaaly rate this.
I was gonna give this 3 stars, because nothing happened really, but because I like the genre and their energy, and especially those last two songs made me go with 4 stars, there might not be much reasons for it, but I potential in them
