Live! by Fela Kuti
Apr 23 2024

I don’t know how to write about music but also what to say about this. It was nice to chill to. Would probably be good to listen to on mushrooms.

Apr 24 2024

I should have rated yesterday’s album a 3 This whole thing should allow for half stars Had never listened to this before but well acquainted with the sample in Power Interesting to listen to one of these foundational text type of albums

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Apr 25 2024

I did War Pigs at karaoke once and almost got heckled off the stage

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye
Apr 26 2024

5 star single 4 star album The extended version in particular in an exercise in tedium

Peter Gabriel 3 by Peter Gabriel
Apr 28 2024

This guy really fucks with the marimba. It wasn’t bad but I don’t think I’ll ever listen to it again on purpose

Slipknot by Slipknot
Apr 29 2024

This is one of those albums where I can’t tell what the lyrics are most of the time, but the vocals are more of another instrument. I do like the more melodic parts which pop up periodically

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Apr 30 2024

The best parts of this one are the parts where they’re just kind of jamming and Ozzy isn’t singing Don’t think I’d ever play this album on purpose

Back to Mystery City by Hanoi Rocks
May 01 2024

This one isn’t on Amazon prime music and I wasn’t willing to sit through YouTube ads for it If I want to hear that drum beat I’ll just watch the old Dog Show skits

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues
May 02 2024

I listened to about half of this but it was pretty good. Reinforced my idea that all language sounds better when you can’t understand it

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy
May 04 2024

Should we put like a drumbeat here maybe? How about a man crying out like a goose Love the genre that’s one half serious racial commentary and one half cackling gremlin noise

OK Computer by Radiohead
May 06 2024

Couple good singles, though nothing as iconic as Creep I see this album as important in the evolution of the band that would go from Pablo Honey to Kid A and beyond, rather than supremely important to music generally

1989 by Taylor Swift
May 08 2024

Sometimes I’d start to think “oh this track sounds pretty good” then she’d start singing. Really weak vocals imo One of the best TS albums and singles and this is all it is + The Screaming Females cover of Shake it Off is so much better it was shocking to hear the original again Homeschooled weirdo energy

Rum Sodomy & The Lash by The Pogues
May 09 2024

I never really enjoy this kind of rowdy tune for more than a couple of minutes Technically skilled, utterly boring to me

Live / Dead by Grateful Dead
May 10 2024

I typed “utterly boring” on yesterday’s album, hit enter, and got shown the dead Cosmic punishment Peace love and boredom

At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band
May 11 2024

I’m gonna shit my pants on live tv if the next album is infected with jam band crap Good otherwise

Giant Steps by The Boo Radleys
May 12 2024

I listened to about half of this

21 by Adele
May 13 2024

This album whips ass. I remember what I was doing the first time I heard “Rolling in the Deep” Adele eating heavy cream based desserts and smoking a pack a day just lining up a full album of bangers she would never match again

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
May 14 2024

Never listened to Elvis Costello knowingly before and I really don’t get what the big deal is tbh When he says “don’t you know I’m an animal” I liked that line and it made me think, but maybe not in the way the song intended
