The song about getting high cuz we can die any day was good

The Slim Shady LP

Eminem

4/5

Really liked it, fucking dark and really gay too. Kinda got fed up with all the characters he’d play for each song with the voices and shit. Bonnie and Clyde was a stand out

Beautiful day and elevation were the only worthwhile 8 mins of the album, and even elevation is only because of the OHHHHOH

3/5

Sounds like the intro to an anime

Talking Heads 77

Talking Heads

4/5

Liked it a lot more than expected, no songs really stuck out to me (I was studying so the music wasn’t at the forefront of my attention) but maybe I’ll check out talking heads down the line with a more open mind

4/5

Porcelain is such a boring uninspired song and really detracts from the album. Fat dance is one of my favorites and cuntzilla always makes me laugh

Deep Purple In Rock

Deep Purple

3/5

Good Old Boys

Randy Newman

1/5

Randy Newman really just went for the jugular opening with rednecks huh? Like ‘oh it’s not like I’m gonna be scoring Disney soundtracks or some shit later on I see no issue in issue in using the n-word in the refrain of the opening song’. Idk what he was thinking with that move but he sings like someone with Down syndrome speaks and a lot of the songs were just uninteresting for me.

Actually really liked elegía and sunrise, could actually hear some of joy division in those songs which was cool because I never liked the poppy sound of new order. Would give it a 3.5 but that’s not an option and it’s definitely not a 4

4/5

A great album. Enjoyed it since first hearing ‘Yes’ 12 years ago. Yes, ifwhiteamerica, walking abortion, archives of pain, 4st 7lb, mausoleum, intense humming all have powerful poignant lyrics and the sound is a good embodiment of British rock.

Here's Little Richard

Little Richard

3/5

Honestly got tired of his screaming style of singing on some of the songs it was kinda grating

Frank

Amy Winehouse

4/5

Liked more than anticipated. Would give 3.5 but that’s not an option and I’m feeling generous

Frampton Comes Alive

Peter Frampton

4/5

Really liked it would give it a 4.5 because it’s not a 5 so 4 it is. I’ll give you money was a never before heard stand out.

Stephen Stills

3/5

Only the first song really stuck out to me and it was more just like ‘ahhhh so this is who this song is by’

Gris Gris

Dr. John

3/5

Straight Outta Compton

N.W.A.

2/5

I don’t really like rap but can still appreciate good rap, this just sucked. The lyrics were childish, basic, felt clunky, and just stupid. “If you can’t handle the D then parental discretion advised” or some shit like what the fuck was that? The whole thing just felt corny and the beats were nothing to drive home about, half of them were just annoying and grating and that’s coming from a Nine Inch Nails fan

Violator

Depeche Mode

4/5

As a nine inch nails fan I was excited for my first foray into Depeche Mode and to listen to one of Trent’s influences. Definitely see the influence, especially on pretty hate machine even if this album came out after PHM did. Personal Jesus, enjoy the silence, are two cool catchy songs with a nice groove

Headquarters

The Monkees

3/5

Some songs were just basic 60 pop rock songs, some actually really kicked ass. Probably won’t listen to it again though

The Köln Concert

Keith Jarrett

2/5

Tubular Bells

Mike Oldfield

3/5

Kinda crazy how the first song goes from exorcist theme to something completely different. It wasn’t bad but it sounds kinda like a kid fucking around with a tape recorder who struck it big because a movie producer liked the first 2 minutes of his 25 minute song.

Nothing's Shocking

Jane's Addiction

4/5

Love this album. Ted just admit it is one of their best songs. Summertime rolls fucking sucks and is the biggest gap in the album and I forget it exists cuz I always skip it. Studio version of Jane says is a little flat and lacks some of the layers of the live version but great album.

Bubble And Scrape

Sebadoh

2/5

This was just a bad album I did not like it

The Stone Roses

3/5

Sounds like the 90s version of the smiths but happier. Honestly it’s a shame the band distanced themselves from so young because that is a fantastic song and would’ve added a little more flavor/variety to the album. The little jam at the end of I am the resurrection is very cool though

Siamese Dream

The Smashing Pumpkins

5/5

Their best album, great flow of songs I love the drumming and the tone on the guitars not a single bad song on the album

3/5

The Chronic

Henry's Dream

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

3/5

I liked nick caves morbid songs about death more

Superunknown

Soundgarden

4/5
