That's The Way Of The World

Earth, Wind & Fire

5/5

Pretty good. Was expecting somewhat cookie cutter 70s corporate stuff but there were some experimental things here as well.

Crime Of The Century

Supertramp

3/5

Overall alright, very well put together but not really my thing. The last few songs went hard as fuck though.

The xx

2/5

Some decent stuff but overall pretty mid

Amnesiac

Radiohead

5/5

Was in a bad mood, this made it worse.

Unknown Pleasures

Joy Division

3/5

Music was good, lyrics ruined it

Marquee Moon

Television

5/5

Very enjoyable

Queen II

Queen

4/5

First time listening to a full queen album. Felt very story driven

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme

Simon & Garfunkel

5/5

Blood, Sweat & Tears

3/5

Weird but alright

Beautiful Freak

Eels

4/5

Was a little weird at first but got better.

Stand!

Sly & The Family Stone

4/5

Very enjoyable, I had heard of this band before but never actually heard any of their music. Pretty good variety of songs while staying on a similar vibe throughout the album.

Bat Out Of Hell

Meat Loaf

4/5

Very wild ride on the bat out of hell. Expected a metal album from the cover, then was treated to a performance theatrical performance like an American version of Queen. The Guns n' Roses like moaning session in the middle of it really tied everything together.

Tragic Songs of Life

The Louvin Brothers

3/5

Thought it was interesting, not the type of music I listen to but I liked the storytelling. The version of the album I listened to had some religious songs tacked onto the end which I didn't realize and it threw me off a lot. But only taking the original album into account, its pretty decent.

Tea for the Tillerman

Cat Stevens

3/5

Didn't feel super impactful, and there wasn't a lot of variety. Overall it was fine and had a couple songs I enjoyed, but I will be forgetting the rest of the album very quickly.

Third

Portishead

4/5

A lot of very cool songs, not a ton of vocal variety but the instrumental parts were varied and well put together.

Joan Armatrading

4/5

A Girl Called Dusty

Dusty Springfield

4/5

Solid, soulful album that I was not anticipating by looking at the album cover

Pump

Aerosmith

1/5

Most unnecessarily horny album I've ever heard. Every single song was too long, apparently just like aerosmith's career because there was not a single good song on this album released a decade and a half after their first.

Ready To Die

The Notorious B.I.G.

4/5

Follow The Leader

Korn

4/5

Didn't understand a lot of words but I don't think that's the point of Korn. Sounded cool and the Ice Cube feature was unexpected and also cool.

Synchronicity

The Police

4/5

Very good album, a couple of out of place feeling songs towards the beginning but the rest of the album is great.

Document

R.E.M.

3/5

A few good songs but overall not super memorable

Bluesbreakers

John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers

3/5

Innovative

Appetite For Destruction

Guns N' Roses

3/5

A couple heaters, the rest was pretty mid

Channel Orange

Frank Ocean

3/5

At Fillmore East

The Allman Brothers Band

4/5

Very good live performance. I've heard a couple of the songs before like whipping post, and hearing the live version of it was really impressive.

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

3/5

Nothing crazy, not a very memorable album but not bad.

1989

Taylor Swift

1/5

Shit album made by a shit person

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Beatles

4/5

I'm not a huge Beatles fan, but this is a good album and its influence on how music was made afterward can not be denied.

Pearl

Janis Joplin

4/5

Five Leaves Left

Nick Drake

3/5

Lady Soul

Aretha Franklin

4/5

banger

Ghosteen

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

4/5

Not my favorite songs that I've heard from Nick Cave, but this is a very well put together album. Disk 2 was my favorite part of this by far.

Hard Again

Muddy Waters

Rhythm Nation 1814

Janet Jackson

3/5

Songs were pretty good, but a lot were too long.

Iron Maiden

3/5

Whelming

Let It Bleed

The Rolling Stones

One good song, a couple decent ones, and the rest are kinda stinky balls. Can MAYBE see how someone else could like it but I'm not a fan.

Playing With Fire

Spacemen 3

3/5

I love me some bullshit random noise, but that didn't save the album from being super mid.

The Slider

T. Rex

2/5

Album cover got me excited, then the music dropped me off a cliff into a spike trap. And the spikes were blunt.
