The Suburbs

Arcade Fire

5/5

i love the over-arching urban apocalyptic theme and the subtle anti-car centrism. this is what i thought montenegro would look like before i got there. rococo is one of my favourites, i also really like sprawl I, yippee

Arular

M.I.A.

4/5

cool album with an even cooler political background

Funeral

Arcade Fire

4/5

tell me you're french canadian without telling me you're french canadian

Buena Vista Social Club

5/5

Fleet Foxes

5/5

A LOVING AND NOSTALGIC ALBUM

High Violet

The National

3/5

the national are great but i think this is their most overrated album, i get tired of the main guy pretty quickly. a better album would be i am easy to find

Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea

PJ Harvey

4/5

p j harvey is very cool, the whores hustle and the hustlers whore is my favourite

The Velvet Underground & Nico

The Velvet Underground

5/5

Lost In The Dream

The War On Drugs

4/5

Our Aim Is To Satisfy

Red Snapper

3/5

if i went into a room with lots of people and this was playing in the background, i would enjoy the vibe of a lot of the songs i think, but also the rapping kinda sucked. whatever. double bass appearance is nice BUT the song it's on makes my head hurt. they're hanging me tonight is a pretty okay track

Toys In The Attic

Aerosmith

1/5

i was neutral at first and then i lost patience. why he gotta holler like that. the only good part was the first 50 seconds of sweet emotion

Document

R.E.M.

4/5

love some fiercely political bangers 👍 favourite tracks: welcome to the occupation and of course it's the end of the world as we know it

Apocalypse Dudes

Turbonegro

1/5

lame

Figure 8

Elliott Smith

3/5

eminently listenable. i liked junk bond trader

At Folsom Prison

Johnny Cash

2/5

i can imagine how they musta thought this was the shit back in the day when there was less music in the world

Kollaps

Einstürzende Neubauten

1/5

is this what construction workers get up to when no one's looking 😧 one point for inventiveness and sounding like they're having a great time

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

3/5

i think bob dylan would be way cooler if there was less of him. maturing is not immediately giving this album one star in retribution for having to listen to too much bob in the car as a kid. 3 points for being way nicer than yesterday's (perspective is a wonderful thing), harmonica skillz, and also the fact that the record cover is great to take photos of over your face from a slight distance

Kind Of Blue

Miles Davis

3/5

3 stars purely because jazz guys know how to treat a bass right. and to be fair it's pretty listenable

The Soft Bulletin

The Flaming Lips

2/5

boring and kind of nothing. "Sing, brothers! Sing! SING!" - The Bullet Farmer

Oracular Spectacular

MGMT

3/5

yeah, i always meant to listen to more MGMT than just little dark age over and over again. my one qualm is i think it would sound better if they sang in a more serious way more of the time. less frivolity!

Olympia 64

Jacques Brel

2/5

ces chansons est comme qqch ma prof de français en annee 10 nous a forcé écouter et puis traduire. je n'ai pas apprécié les flashbacks, à bas les français !

São Paulo Confessions

Suba

4/5

this sounds adjacent to something dad would've played in like 2010. pretty groovy

1999

Prince

3/5

i'd never heard prince before which seems crazy but this is pretty much what i expected

Countdown To Ecstasy

Steely Dan

3/5

probably a joyful day for the number one steely dan man paxo8 i thought it was okay and alright

Hounds Of Love

Kate Bush

5/5

god she's so weird what's happening here. 10/10 no notes. favourite tracks: cloudbusting (of course) the weeewwoooo noises and faint AWOO in mother stands for comfort watching you without me jig of life (or i might hate it, not sure)

Appetite For Destruction

Guns N' Roses

1/5

i'm going to shit myself and die
