Superfuzz Bigmuff
Mudhoney
Reminds me of the Singles soundtrack from the 90's (because they were on it). Sounds like Bleach by Nirvana, also on Sub Pop. Although this sounds heavier somehow.
I feel like I've heard Touch Me I'm Sick in a commercial recently. Maybe for Skyrizi or some other drug.

Music for the Masses
Depeche Mode
Violator and Songs of Faith and Devotion are when Depeche Mode reached their peak. There are a couple of good songs on this album but most of them are nothing special.

Urban Hymns
The Verve
I don't understand the appeal of the Verve. This album consists of 1 overplayed 90's hit and a bunch of songs that sound like Oasis or Better than Ezra.

Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret
Soft Cell
This may have been big in the UK but didn't translate very well here in the US other than Tainted Love. Sounds too cheesy and clubby for my taste.
There are lot better British bands than this rubbish.

What's That Noise?
Coldcut
i couldn't find this album on Amazon or Spotify so I listened to Let Us Play instead. sounds like good background music or something to listen to with headphones, lots of stuff going on.
i also didn't realize that they run the label Ninja Tune. their label has similar artists if you're into this kind of thing.

Shadowland
k.d. lang
I didn't realize KD Lang started out as country. Sounds like Patsy Cline which makes sense since it was her producer. This is the kind of country I like. Not something I'd usually listen to but not terrible either. Better than her AC stuff later on.

On The Beach
Neil Young
Dark lyrics, good production. I like the blues songs on it. Haven't really dove into Neil's catalog other than Harvest and his greatest hits so it's cool to listen to something else by him.

O.G. Original Gangster

Suburban white boy rap. The second half with Bodycount is better. Definitely not as good as Snoop, Dre, Tupac, etc. but not too terrible.

Amnesiac
Radiohead
basically a continuation of Kid A, so much so that they recently released both of them together. Pyramid Song and Knives Out are excellent standouts.
A logical next step from OK Computer although some wanted more rock like Pablo Honey.

I tried, couldn't make it past 2 or 3 songs. sounds like awful drum and bass with R&B lyrics over it. Vocals aren't too terrible but the background is painful.

the Gorillaz are fun. I usually listen to Demon Days but this album has some great songs on it (Clint Eastwood, 19-2000). There is some filler on this one and songs that aren't that great (M1 A1 I usually skip).

Fun House
The Stooges
some interesting music on here. One of those bands that I imagine would be better live, especially watching Iggy smear steaks, blood or peanut butter on himself. This album sounds like they're trying to capture the live experience instead of creating polished studio versions which I can respect.

not my favorite Dinosaur Jr. album, it gets to be a little much at the end for me. Fun fact, I remember my dad hearing me listening to Freak Scene when I was in middle school and he took the CD away from me when he heard the cursing.
