Popular Reviews

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz

I don't know much about jazz music but I do know that this is the exact kind that I like.

Manassas by Stephen Stills

I didn't necessary dislike it, but it was a little boring.

Hms Fable by Shack

Nah, not for me. Maybe I'm just grumpy because my last 6 albums have been duds, but this was not good.

One of my all time favorite albums. It's an album that explores complex themes like mental illness, mortality, and human existence. The seamless transitions between tracks, enhanced by the band's use of synthesizers, sound effects, and philosophical lyrics, create a rich, atmospheric soundscape. Songs like "Time," "Money," and "Us and Them" showcase the band's lyrical depth and musical experimentation. It's both introspective and universally relatable, with Roger Waters' poignant lyrics and David Gilmour's soaring guitar work standing out. A timeless classic, the album remains a pinnacle of progressive rock and a cultural landmark.

High Violet by The National

Maybe you need to be in a certain mood to enjoy this. I just found out very depressing and not especially interesting.
