Five Leaves Left
Nick Drake
I love Nick Drake when I'm in the mood for him. Very talented and sad that he got a cult following after his death. Great background music for a rainy day.
Favorite Songs: Three Hours and Cello Song
Least Favorite Songs: Way To Blue

25
Adele
Adele has a great voice and is at her best when it's just her and a piano (Remedy and When We Were Young). On some of the songs on this album (like I Miss You and River Lea) the production overshadows her voice and doesn't fit. The album seems a little disjointed since it goes back and forth between her and a piano and more produced songs.
This album is '25' and not 15.
Favorite Songs: When We Were Young, Remedy, Hello
Least Favorite: I Miss You, River Lea

The Suburbs
Arcade Fire
Funeral was a masterpiece, Neon Bible was a letdown so I gave up on them. This album is better and more like Funeral even though it's longer and doesn't seem to flow as well. Would listen to again.
Also, Regine's voice is amazing, she should sing more.

Tidal
Fiona Apple
Classic! One of the few albums I can say had an impact on me growing up.
An emotional record that isn't too depressing and has a good mix of powerful tunes like Shadowboxer but also calm songs like Pale September. The only song I usually skip is First Taste.

Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space
Spiritualized
more interesting to listen to with headphones so you can hear everything going on in the background. some great melodies on here and I like the gospel choir. some songs like The Individual and Cop Shoot Cop go on too long and sound too crazy and noisy. parts sound psychedelic and you can hear some blues influence also.

my favorite Incubus album next to S.C.I.E.N.C.E. I love the lyrics on this album. Battlestar Scralatchtica is kind of filler but the rest is solid.

The Köln Concert
Keith Jarrett
cool story behind this one. a girl booked the concert. Keith wanted a specific piano but the one she had was out of tune and had keys that would not work. He performed anyway but told her to record it so other venues would know why he wants a good piano for concerts.

almost more like a Wu Tang album than a solo one since they all appear on it. the group's contract allowed them so sign solo deals with other labels. GZA might not have had the commercial success of Method Man or ODB but he's arguably the most talented.
