Eels

2/5

favourite: novocaine for the soul least favourite: not ready yet, guest list wahhhhhhhhhhh wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh this is one of the whiniest albums I have ever heard. complaining from start to finish for 43 minutes and 52 seconds susan's house is one of the worst offenders, trying to be deep without really saying anything at all the instrumentals are pretty good though, save me from completely writing it off + the cover sucks ass mayb 4-5/10

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music

Ray Charles

4/5

favourite: A02, A05, A10, A12, B02, B04, B09, B11, B12 least favourite: A04, B05 notable tracks: - A10: really like the more minimal instrumental, allows the vocals to shine here - B04: great sonic change from the rest of the album, backing vocals add a lot here half the songs on vol 1 sound the same, wish it was a bit shorter - that being said, they all sound great so not a huge issue vol 2 has a lot more variety and generally more interesting songs think the backing vocals are overused a lot, could have been just ray charles on most of these songs mayb 7/10

Elephant

The White Stripes

4/5

favourite: Seven Nation Army (obv), There's No Home For You Here, Ball and Biscuit least favourite: In The Cold Cold Night jack white guitar hard carries the album, his vocals are kinda ass meg white vocals on in the cold cold night are great but the song itself isn't great mayb 7-8/10

favourite: she has funny cars, somebody to love, white rabbit, go to her least favourite: today, jpp mc step b blues the songs are good, there's nothing really "bad" about it, but nothing amazing about it either white rabbit is the best song by far the fake stereo they used was kind of distracting, should have just listened to it in mono mayb 7/10

Locust Abortion Technician

Butthole Surfers

2/5

favourite: the o-men, kuntz, 22 going on 23 least favourite: graveyard, pittsburg to lebanon, weber, hay, u.s.s.a "how can we make our album as uncomfortable as possible" sonically, it's impressive. they can make some super cool noises & the atmosphere is 100% there the vocals on the o-men & kuntz work really well, kuntz especially has a great instrumental human cannonball stands out weirdly, doesn't really fit in with the rest of the album. otherwise, this is actually unlistenable hard to say it's "bad", they're obviously extremely talented. not for me, but I see why someone might like this mayb 5/10
