Foo Fighters

3/5

this is just.... fine lol all the songs blend into one another and they sound like every other foo fighters song, with some exceptions that have a bit more grit but even those end up sounding like Nirvana knock-offs

Led Zeppelin

4/5

this is so good dude, I love the blues influence woven throughout, and as far as debuts go this was such a good way to show off the band's abilities. Plant's voice is absurd on this album, some of my favourite from him for sure

More Songs About Buildings And Food

Talking Heads

3/5

I think I screwed myself by listening to Remain in Light first because everything I hear from Talking Heads now will be compared to it. that being said I liked some songs on here, no doubt, but it's just more overall good rather than great to me

The Doors

3/5

I've never been a huge fan of The Doors so I really don't have much to say, it's just not for me

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

4/5

I like the theming of this album and the messages therein, but I do find it a tad too long for my personal tastes. I also don't gravitate to some of theses sounds typically, although I like the way she meshed some of the genres together (even if it does sound a bit dated at times in my opinion).

Get Behind Me Satan

The White Stripes

3/5

I'm not sure why this album makes all the lists. Icky Thump and Elephant are superior, more cohesive and less repetitive.

461 Ocean Boulevard

Eric Clapton

3/5

this is definitely an album you throw on the turntable in the background of a game of cards while sipping whiskey or g&t, and sometimes that's all you need from a record

Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea

PJ Harvey

4/5

I didn't know what to expect but I quite liked this. I heard it's different from her previous stuff but to me it sounded good, sure it was melodic but I heard the rock edge and I loved it

Rust Never Sleeps

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

3/5

The Wildest!

Louis Prima

4/5

man I fuck with this lol it's a ton of fun

Spy Vs. Spy: The Music Of Ornette Coleman

John Zorn

2/5

*laughs nervously* what the fuck?

The Seldom Seen Kid

Elbow

3/5

this objectively sounds really good, but I can't shake the feeling like I've heard a lot of these songs before in other albums - not saying it's derivative, because some of the comp titles I'm thinking of came after, but it's still a feeling that's bugging me, like there's nothing that unique about it. nonetheless, I think it's quite good

Debut

Björk

4/5

definitely not an album I'll listen to again all the way through but good for my music & music history knowledge no doubt

(Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd)

Lynyrd Skynyrd

3/5

Simple Man is one of the best songs of all time but the rest of the album just doesn't hit as hard unfortunately. still good though

Catch A Fire

Bob Marley & The Wailers

3/5

this was fine, some songs are catchy and vibe-y but a whole album of reggae definitely gets tiresome

Queens of the Stone Age

4/5

this fucks, not all of the songs are equally as good but the bangers are true bangers. I can't get over how simultaneously 90s AND current this sounds

Closer

Joy Division

4/5

why did I think I hated Joy Division???? this is insane

O.G. Original Gangster

Ice T

5/5

this slaps, despite its length it never felt repetitive or sluggish and I audibly chuckled at several points. Ice T's mind is a wild place to be, A+

Automatic For The People

R.E.M.

3/5

it's giving "music playing in the background of the dive bar where you're having a conversation with a drunk stranger twice your age," and not in an entirely bad way. some songs are stronger than others, but overall it fades a bit into the background for me

Jagged Little Pill

Alanis Morissette

1/5

god I hate her voice, I'm sorry, it's just so grating to listen to and ruins everything. doesn't help that this sounds dated and uninspired

Are You Experienced

Jimi Hendrix

5/5

you might be cool, but you'll never be Are You Experienced cool

Nilsson Schmilsson

Harry Nilsson

2/5

I'm sorry but this is just not it lol
