Dire Straits
Dire Straits
Down to the Waterline- in the words of Eva, this is a bop. The mix of the guitars and percussion makes the song have a funky little beat. This is a good open to the album.
Water of Love- the slow essence of the song and the layered singing adds an unfamiliar tone to the song. There's not much more to say about the song. It's mediocre.
Setting Me Up- the layering of the guitars adds a funky vibe to the song. It is somewhere inbetween a bop and being mediocre. The singing does nothing for me, the instruments are what carries the song.
Six Blade Knife- this is a slower song that doesn't rely too heavily on the instruments. Unfortunately, that leaves us to rely on the vocals, which adds whispers and groans to the song. This is a mediocre song.
Southbound Again- the funky guitar adds a nice vibe to the song. This would probably go in Eva's book as a bop, though, a lower sided bop.
Sultans of Swing- an iconic song, it reminds me of riding down the highway. Although objectively, this is the best song off the album, it is not my favorite. This is not me saying the song isn't good, though. It is.
In the Gallery- this is once again a mediocre song. Not even the instruments can carry this one. However, it's not bad. It's just not good. It carries on for too long.
Wild West End- the acoustic guitar and the slow vibe adds a calming effect to the song. It's a cute sounding song. This track has the best lyrics of the entire album. It isn't a bop and it isn't mediocre. It has its own category from the rest of the songs off the album because it's not like the other songs.
Lions- this calm song is once again neither a bop nor mediocre. It's just plain good. The song is brought justice by the vocals. It isn't like the other songs off the album. It is most similar to Wild West End.
Overall- the use of the funky sounding guitar is what carries this album. It adds a vibe that reminds me of the sound of the 70s. Although the vocals are different, they feel revolutionary and unique. This album was overall pretty good. It's not exactly my taste, but I can agree that this is objectively good. 3/5.

Songs From The Big Chair
Tears For Fears
Shout- I've never really been a fan of this song, however, it is nostalgic. It's not a bad song, it's just not that great. I'll just go with this is a good song. It reminds me of being an angsty teen and wanting to scream into my pillow.
The Working Hour- the saxophone is scaring me. I have come to the conclusion that I do not like the saxophone. This is a dramatic bittersweet song. It seems pretty mediocre, but it's not bad.
Everbody Wants To Rule The World- this is such an iconic and nostalgic song. I can't even say anything bad about it. This is a good, upbeat song. I feel empowered listening to this.
Mothers Talk- this is a catchy, heavy, and nostalgic song. It sounds upbeat, yet when you listen to the lyrics, it doesn't seem so happy anymore. This is a good song.
I Believe- this is a slow and haunting song. This is also a mediocre song. It starts off slow and it ends slow. The saxophone is not helping, either. This is my least favorite track off the album.
Broken- by itself, it is still a good song. It is catchy. It feels weird listening to it, though, because it is the final part of Head Over Heels.
Head Over Heels- this is a nostalgic song. The bass does it justice. Although I never really liked it as a kid, it is better than I remember it being. This is not the best track off of the album, however, it is still good.
Listen- it starts off with a sweet melody. I feel like I'm in a movie listening to this, specifically Heathers. It doesn't have many words and instead relies on sound effects. I have mixed emotions for this song.
Overall- this album is definetly worth the listen. It is easy to forget how good some of these songs are after you haven't heard them in a of couple years. It feels so nostalgic and it captures the sound of the 80s. 4/5

Cecilia Ann- this song actually makes me feel like I'm in an action movie.
Rock Music- this song has the perfect title. I like the way Frank screams the lyrics.
Velouria- I can't even decribe my feelings for this song. It makes me ascend. I love it so much. I think it can be agreed that this is the best song on the album.
Allison- I also love this song. It is such a vibe. "I saw the face of Allison" is delivered perfectly.
Is She Weird- this is such an amazing song. The bass is really what pulls this together. This feels like an ideal Pixies song. "Is she over me?" *chef's kiss*
Ana- this song reminds me of wasting away in the sunlight. This is the first song I ever heard off of this album and I'll always love it.
All Over the World- this song reminds me of the apocalypse and experiencing death. This is a great song. It feels so Pixies.
Dig for Fire- I've never been a huge fan of this song. It doesn't feel like the Pixies. It feels to happy and upbeat. It's safe to say this is my least favorite track off the album.
Down To The Well- this song is angsty. Once again, it was never one of my favorites.
The Happening- this song also reminds me of the end of the world. I like to pair it with All Over the World.
Blown Away- this song is so easy to forget sometimes. It didn't even do anything wrong. It sounds good, so why don't I treat it like it is?
Hang Wire- this is a good angsty song. I feel like a villain listening to this. "That man is a liar" perfect.
Stormy Weather- this is a pretty okay song. It's not one of my favorites off of the album. It is kind of a bop, though.
Havalina- I also feel like wasting away to this song. I like to pair it with Ana. I like this song. It sparks some emotion that I literally can't describe. It's like the song is trying to say goodbye to the listeners.
Overall- this is not my first time listening to the album. It's not even my fifth time. I love this album and I love the Pixies. Although this isn't their best or their most iconic album, it is still worth the listen. My favorite tracks are Velouria, Ana, Is She Weird, Allison, and Havalina. Although the second half does feel a little filler, the first half makes me want to ascend. 5/5

MTV Unplugged In New York
Nirvana
This is not my first time listening to this album. This will not be my last time, either. Nirvana is one of my favorite bands, therefore, this review will be in their favor. Let me just start off by saying that this album is amazing. Although all the songs are live recordings, that doesn't damage their value. If anything, it makes them better. You can hear the raw emotion in Kurt's voice. Every imperfection is dazzling. In this album, there is a variety of songs. Some are from Bleach, In Utero, and Nevermind, while others aren't even Nirvana original songs. These covers are what make the album, especially The Man Who Sold The World and Where Did You Sleep Last Night. They are very powerful to listen to. This album is truly an essential listen. 5/5

Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)- pretty good; nice beat and progression; worth a relisten
Neighborhood #2 (Laika)- pretty good; not as good as #1, but pretty close
Une Annee Sans Lumiere- sweet sounding; alright
Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)- ish; little angsty
Neighborhood #4 (Kettles)- ish; little to no progression
Crown of Love- ish; basic
Wake Up- ish; all these songs are starting to sound the same
Haiti- ish; I can't take this much longer
Rebellion (Lies)- pretty good; nice bass and beat
In the Backseat- okay; little to no progression
Overall- I had high hopes for this album. I was thoroughly disappointed. There were only a couple songs I liked, those being Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels), Neighborhood #2 (Laika), and Rebellion (Lies). The rest of the songs were a blur. After a while, they all started to sound the same and I became bored listening to this album. 2/5

Eminem
Obviously, hip hop is not my thing. I learned this after listening to this album. I mean, all the songs sounded basic. Basic beat. Nothing else. I'm not doubting Eminem's talent, but Jesus Christ, is he vulgar. There was a whole song dedicated to murdering his at the time wife. I get that he's a chill guy in real life, but if I didn't know that, I'd hate his guts. I did not enjoy this album one bit. Actually, that's a lie. I like The Real Slim Shady, but that's it. 1/5

It's very easy to be intimidated by the long and zany titles, however, you'll have to push that aside in order to listen to this album. This was very fun to listen to because of the many references to my home state, Illinois. I came to this with high expectations and they were met. I found the most important thing about this album to be the lyrics, especially in the song Casimir Pulaski Day. They were very touching and well written. Overall, this was a good album.

Doolittle
Pixies
Doolittle is undoubtedly the greatest indie rock album of all time by one of the most influential bands, the Pixies. It is important to ask where modern music would be without them. In a world without the Pixies, there would be no Nirvana, Radiohead, Weezer, Pearl Jam, or countless other bands.
To understand what makes a great album, you have to look to the cover first. The imagery of the monkey with a halo can be traced back to the seventh track, Monkey Gone to Heaven, representing the songβs title. Also in the song, the lyrics βif man is five, then the devil is six, and if the devil is six, then God is sevenβ can be heard. This is illustrated by the three large numbers that decorate the cover of Doolittle. A fourth smaller number can be found in the lower right corner. This can be traced back to the eleventh track, No 13 Baby. It is clear that by looking at the coverβs representative imagery, you are going to be dealing with a phenomenal album.
The mixture of Frank Black's manic singing and Kim Deal's (who I like to consider the greatest female bassist of all time) ingenious bass lines are what really make up the album. The lyrics aren't shy to taboo topics like mutilation, Biblical stories, and death. Doolittle offers a nice array of moods, like the danceability of Debaser and the angst of Gouge Away. It's hard to listen to this album and not be addicted to it. Although they didn't last long, the Pixies have left their mark on music history and they will never be forgotten.
All the tracks are exquisite, however, I have my favorites and least favorites.
Favorites: Gouge Away, Debaser, Hey
Least Favorites: Silver, Tame, Crackity Jones

Also, who the hell told John Zorn that he should make music, let alone record an entire album? I hope that person's pillow has two warm sides. There is no actual rhythm to these songs. Every single one of them is a bunch of trumpets and drums and clarinets and saxophones put together and the deaf producer said, "There we go, that's music".

Teen Dream
Beach House
Beach House is a band that is often remembered for their album Depression Cherry, however, there is always more to a band than it may seem. Teen Dream, their third album, is heavily overlooked. So relaxing, so dreamy, so hauntingly beautiful, yet so emotional. The songs flow into each other like honey. Each track is sweet with nostalgia and leaves a bitter after taste of longing for what you've lost. The first track, Zebra, reminds me of what it's like when life is moving all around you, yet you want to stay in the moment. There's nothing you can do but watch. Teen Dream deserves a spot in the top 1001 albums list and I'm glad it is here. An album this great is worth all the listens.

Figure 8
Elliott Smith
Last year in English class, the kids had to do a presentation on their tragic hero. I never got the opportunity to do this, so I will treat this review as if it were my presentation. While other kids chose Kurt Cobain and Amy Winehouse, my tragic hero is Elliott Smith. Doomed since birth, his anguished childhood carried on through his adulthood until his untimely death. Although he is gone, this humble man will never be forgotten for his contributions to the indie-rock music community. Many people find comfort in his melancholy tunes and deep lyrics. One of those people is me. I found Elliott Smith a couple of years back. Although I can't say his music has saved my life or anything along those lines, I can say that his music has impacted me. His songs and albums have been with me through the best of times and the worst of times. It was easy to tell from the start that Elliott was a very talented individual. He was a musical genius and Figure 8 only proves this point further. If you are not familiar with his previous albums, then it is important to note that Figure 8 was a significant point in his career. It is his most Beatles-esque and rock album to date. It has a mix of many instruments, including piano, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, and so on. From the solid start with Son Of Sam and through the rest of the album, you go on an adventure through a range of emotions until you end with the bittersweet Bye. Considering that the last track of the last album Elliott got to see the release of was called Bye, it can't help but make you wonder if that was Elliott's way of saying goodbye to all of his wonderful fans. I hope he's resting in peace now in his reverse New York, a heaven he could only dream of, where everything smells good and everyone is nice. The world will never be the same without his poor soul and he will never be forgotten as long as his devoted fans are around. And to my tragic hero, see you later if I see you at all.
Favorite songs: Somebody That I Used To Know, Happiness/The Gondola Man, Son Of Sam, and L.A.

Oasis is for the girlies who think about their crush when listening to Wonderwall. (What's The Story) Morning Glory? is for all us girlies out there. Stay safe yall βοΈ

Fuck the system. You guys are a bunch of pussys who don't like anything "different". The amount of hate this album receives is unnecessary. Be real. It's not that bad. It's angsty. The lyrics are fun. It talks about witches. What more do you want? Is it the best thing I've listened to? No, but it's not hot garbage. If it didn't get such bad ratings, I would probably give it a 3, but just for the hell of it, I'm giving it a 4. Maybe that'll improve it's rating a tad.
