Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Jun 10 2024

i don’t think this is the elliot smith album for me

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Jun 11 2024

it was cool. one way or another is a cute circus of a song. i just wasn’t in the mood for it but it’s good to have it on my radar

Moon Safari by Air
Jun 12 2024

albums like this are the reason i’m doing this challenge. this was completely unique and i don’t know if i would’ve found it otherwise. i listened to it throughout the day and added the whole album.

The Blueprint by JAY Z
Jun 13 2024

it really wasn’t as bad as i thought because i do like hiphop. i just really don’t prefer jay z especially as a person. i know he has a legacy but the songs weren’t bad. i may not really return though.

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Jun 14 2024

i did like it. i didn’t finish because it got a little redundant to me but i would def go back to finish. it has that classic rock type of vocal style that isn’t bad but it was just registering to me like “oh i’m not in the mood for classic rock lately” but i did find a lot of influence for modern stuff like MGMT. the instrumentals are very cool and innovative. will come back! :)

Central Reservation by Beth Orton
Jun 19 2024

i’m just not a fan of ballads that sound the same 😔 but the style was good

Bummed by Happy Mondays
Aug 23 2024

i was interested in the sound but it got redundant. was going to be a 3 but as a whole body of work it was a 2 for me.

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane
Aug 30 2024

it felt like i could hear a different band in each song. very cool they came first.

1989 by Taylor Swift
Sep 18 2024

it’s a pretty good album and i listened to it a lot when i was younger. don’t get me wrong. but some of the pop hits are just so repetitive and generic, i do think this is the origin point of taylor making uninspired music chasing hits. some songs are great, it’s polished, but there is better taylor swift music. i give it a 2 for my personal feelings about her discography, i think this is more of a 3

Tidal by Fiona Apple
Oct 14 2024
Drunk by Thundercat
Oct 24 2024

so groovy. nostalgic but innovative. thundercat is one of the niche greats of our time

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Nov 26 2024

pretty good, dripping in early 2000’s melancholy, a musical era i don’t want to forget. some of the songs and vocal style got redundant

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Dec 16 2024
