Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

Run-D.M.C.

1/5

Shite

This Is Hardcore

Pulp

2/5

Just because they're from Sheff doesn't mean that I liked it. Bit dergy. Arctic Monkeys but depressed. Glory Days was good, but eerily similar to Common People...

Definitely Maybe

Talking Heads

2/5

Just altogether meh

Devil Without A Cause

Kid Rock

1/5

Misogynistic, disgusting. Couldn't finish it.

Ragged Glory

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

3/5

Not bad, not great. Distinct impression they were steaming drunk while recording Farmer John. Too much guitar for me. What's with the last note of every track being 30 seconds long?

Broken English

Marianne Faithfull

2/5

Not good.

The Wildest!

The Atomic Mr Basie

Count Basie & His Orchestra

4/5

Bit jazzy, bit chill. No lyrics, just music

Classic 1960s rock

Alright - neither here nor there really. 3.5?

I See A Darkness

Bonnie "Prince" Billy

1/5

Crap. Who actually enjoys this???

Drunk

Thundercat

2/5

4/5

Not my usual style but I recognised the hits and quite enjoyed the whole album

2/5

The music's not bad but the lyrics are strange

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

4/5

Rumours

Fleetwood Mac

Full of hits, pop-rock also a little country? Unwittingly knew every song but never actively listened to Fleetwood Mac

The names really put me off but it wasn't that bad actually

Muddy Waters

3/5

Chilled jazz

Meat Is Murder

The Smiths

3/5

Not bad I guess, but not really my cup of tea

...And Justice For All

Metallica

2/5

Just a wall of noise. Whatever fancy music theory they're trying to do is overridden by how disjointed it makes the tracks sound

Thriller

Michael Jackson

5/5

Full of bangers, what a classic

Psychocandy

The Jesus And Mary Chain

4/5

Promising start, good middle, mediocre finish. Grungier than my normal style, but generally enjoyed it more than I expected

Bossanova

Pixies

3/5

One of the tracks was screaming, I did not enjoy that. Generally an alright album.

Gentlemen

The Afghan Whigs

2/5

Bad, whiny but out of tune whining. Apparently bit incel-like but tbh I wasn't listening to the lyrics and if I was I probably couldn't have made them out anyway

Survivor

Destiny's Child

5/5

Easy 5, classics and bangers galore

Roots

Sepultura

1/5

absolutely not

Follow The Leader

Korn

1/5

1.5 for managing to get through the whole album even though it was a definite no thank you

Yeezus

Kanye West

2/5

2 because I knew a few songs that were alright. 0 for referring to Asian lady bits as sweet and sour sauce

The War On Drugs

5/5

Chill, but a bit boppy. Feel like I know their music even though I don't, so familiar.

A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Coldplay

5/5

They make good music.

Murder Ballads

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

1/5

Can he hold a note? No. Was there a single track that I actually enjoyed? No. Did you know that the worst one of all is nearly 15 minutes long? Did you want to slit your wrists? No? Well, you do now.

Clandestino

Manu Chao

4/5

Chill latin/spanish vibes. Super easy listening

Virgin Suicides

Air

2/5

Not my cup of tea

Green River

Creedence Clearwater Revival

Short but sweet
