Violent Femmes
Violent Femmes
1. Classic. Nothing to add.
2. Better than Blister in the Sun. Better lyrics, more varied instrumentation.
3. I remember hating this song when I was younger listening to this album. I don't like it but it's not as bad as I remember. It's a bit like the reggae songs on Bad Brains' self-titled.
4. The best song on the album musically. Lyrics are meh, but still slaps.
5. The "hurry" part sucks, HARD. Rest is fine if forgettable.
6. Another of the folk-punk songs. Hook's great, still remember it after 4 years.
7. By the numbers, but catchy as hell.
8. Probably the best, thickest bassline on the album. Fun song.
9. plinplinplinplinplinplinplinplinplinplinplinplinplinplinplinplinplinplin
10. Sleep-inducing in a good way. Nice piano and violin.
Overall album rating: 8/10

Knights of Cydonia is great. The rest is decent at best and mind-numbing at worst.
Soldier's Poem sounds like if Radiohead covered Orange Juice. Somehow this is not a great song.

Classic art pop album. Not her best work(that goes to her sophomore) but well-worth a listen.

More Portishead. Not as good as Dummy but better than the self-titled.

Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo
Devo
The biggest flaw with this album is that it isn't longer. Banger after banger, one of the best albums from an era filled with great post-punk and new wave.

1: Good song, I like the arrangement.
2: Important for the narrative, I guess but unremarkable otherwise.
3: Instrumentation is nice but production is a bit wonky.
4: Weird lyrics. Last minute or two is great.
5: Feels both understated and epic at the same time. Pretty damn good.
6: Lyrics feel off.
7: Not a fan of those backing vocals. Rest is fine.
8: Disney villain song, with all that brings.
9/10: Fantastic. Best song on the album so far.
11/12: Feels a bit... insensitive.
13: Killer riff. Second best song so far.
14/15: Fun songs.
16: Nice bass.
17: Don't like the vocals.
18: Trumpet!
19: Forgettable.
20: Nice piano.
21: Meh.
22: A bit boring.
23: ?????
24: I can absolutely understand this given the last song. Actually, it's p. good.
I don't like a lot of rock operas, they more often than not sound cheesy and a bit pretentious at times, and Tommy, while a fun record doesn't change my perception of the concept.
