Speakerboxxx/The Love Below

OutKast

1/5

I tapped out at “swimming in the fallopian/of an Ethiopian”

Morrison Hotel

The Doors

2/5

I do not like The Doors but this is probably their best album. Bonus points for being short.

Pink Moon

Nick Drake

3/5

Let's Stay Together

This was a great listen. Almost soothing in a way.

Sunday At The Village Vanguard

Bill Evans Trio

4/5

It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

Public Enemy

3/5

I'm sure this is very influential but there is nothing fun about this record. At all. Perhaps that is the point but decades later it is just a chore.

Take Me Apart

Kelela

3/5

Not my style of music at all, and a little racy for the morning at work.

Deja Vu

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

3/5

Stardust

Electric

The Cult

2/5

Led Zeppelin

4/5

I certainly listened to this a billion times when it came out. Having a Blast is three fire emojis.

Probably more like 3.5

Hunky Dory

5/5

Nixon

1/5

Boring.

The Notorious Byrd Brothers

The Byrds

1/5

Boring.

The Score

Fugees

3/5

It is kinda crazy that people think of this as a world changing record when its two biggest singles are covers.

Bryter Layter

Nick Drake

2/5

Boring.

The Doors

1/5

More like 3.5 but on the high end of that.

4/5

Licensed To Ill

Influential but not great

Mama Said Knock You Out

LL Cool J

3/5

I can hear this album in its entirety in my brain, and for 30 years no less.

2/5

I swear I'm not a hater, I just don't care. "Blank Space" is an all-timer, though.

Are You Experienced

Jimi Hendrix

5/5

I remember buying this at Laserland. I think I still have it.

Bug

Dinosaur Jr.

3/5

Pornography

The Cure

1/5

American Idiot

Kind of embarrassing, in hindsight.

I used to absolutely love this. Doesn't hold up for me.

Murmur

Marty Robbins

5/5

This rules in dozens of ways.

Eagles

1/5

Strangeways, Here We Come

4/5

In Utero

5/5

Paul's Boutique

Beastie Boys

5/5

Ramones

5/5

This is legitimately one of the greatest and most important albums ever made. I don't trust anyone who listens to punk/hardcore/metal and does not listen to the Ramones. It indicates a lack of joy/whimsy.

Don't Stand Me Down

Dexys Midnight Runners

2/5

Graceland

Paul Simon

5/5

Really more 3.5, but on the higher end.

3/5

Suicide

3/5

Really 2.5. This is one of those records everyone says they love but doesn't actually hold up when you listen to it over and over again. Is Henry Rollins REALLY just blasting this in his apartment?

Ice T

3/5

The Clash

3/5

Parachutes

Coldplay

1/5
