Tragic Songs of Life

The Louvin Brothers

5/5

Great old timey country album, reminds me of the Osborne Brothers. Good gospel songs too, just a great album from start to finish. I may even buy the vinyl.

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music

Ray Charles

5/5

Great album, very smooth all the way around. I like old country songs so it was nice to hear Ray Charles sing a few in his voice.

Coat Of Many Colors

Dolly Parton

4/5

Fantastic album! first song is an absolute banger, nearly brought me to tears thinking about a mother's love. A few good songs mixed in between, especially The Way I See You. Might play that one at my wedding eventually.

Kid A

Radiohead

2/5

The album was Radioheads new take on becoming a technological band. I wasn't a huge fan, but I can always appreciate an artistic album. Just not really my taste.

Songs From The Big Chair

Tears For Fears

3/5

Album itself was alright. Some of Tears for Fears best pieces were in there but other than that, it was pretty mid.

Aladdin Sane

David Bowie

3/5

Very experimental album, I can appreciate some artistic music, but just not always the best to listen to without headphones.

McCartney

Paul McCartney

3/5

It was good, not great. There are a few bangers on there, but it's all alright

Central Reservation

Beth Orton

4/5

A few songs are amazing! The type that you listen to and they make you want to dance with your wife (who I don't know yet). But a few are mid and the rest are forgettable. Overall though, for the sum of songs that make me feel like slow dancing, the album earned a decent review.

Boy In Da Corner

Dizzee Rascal

1/5

I couldn't even finish this one. Not a fan of this music at all.

Get Behind Me Satan

The White Stripes

3/5

good album, but not great. Had a few little nuggets in there but nothing that had me overly impressed.

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

3/5

its alright, never been the biggest Bob Dylan fan, but he does put out some heat. Most of this, unfortunately, was not it though.

Abbey Road

Beatles

5/5

We knew this review was coming, love it. Not my favorite Beatles album, but certainly deserves the accolades it receives. Listened to it and it took me back to being in high school all over again

The Stone Roses

2/5

A bit experimental, but not the type of experimental I particularly enjoy. The music just kind of felt like noise, not necessarily bad noise but I didn't find myself moved.

Tragic Songs of Life

The Louvin Brothers

5/5

Great old timey country album, reminds me of the Osborne Brothers. Good gospel songs too, just a great album from start to finish. I may even buy the vinyl.

Time Out

The Dave Brubeck Quartet

4/5

Fantastic album! Good jazz from start to finish. Jazz is one of those genres I haven't listened to much. But this one made it easy and I was all like "hey man, I am actively enjoying this music."

Exile On Main Street

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Good album, had a few Rolling stone weirdos in there but also some bangin songs! Heard a few I already knew and a few I'd like to know.

Fever Ray

1/5

Personally getting zero enjoyment out of this one. Gave it a shot and I just can't really get behind this one. It's experimental and weird, but not my type of experimental and weird.

Young Americans

David Bowie

3/5

Not a whole lot of memorable songs, outside Fame of course :)

Odelay

Beck

2/5

It takes a lot for an album to wow me... this one did not succeed. Had a few bangers (1).

Triangle

The Beau Brummels

4/5

Off the rip, reminds me of like a Simon & Garfunkel meets Bob Dylan and Tommy James and the Shondells

Foo Fighters

3/5

Mid-ish, not my type of music, but I see the quality within.

Elvis Is Back

Elvis Presley

4/5

Elvis continues to never miss

American Idiot

Green Day

4/5

ya'll already KNOW how this makes me feel

Pretzel Logic

Steely Dan

3/5

pretty good, not the biggest steely dan fan, but they do put out some good music.

Trans Europe Express

Kraftwerk

3/5

Not a bad album, very Kraftwerk. Couldn't listen to it much out loud for obvi reasons. Probs about a trillion times better on a pair of good headphones.

Pretenders

2/5

meh, very horny and weird, also off tone and off beat often. but certainly not awful, all things considered

Songs Of Leonard Cohen

Leonard Cohen

3/5

Alright album, very mushy but sometimes that's the best type of music

Welcome to the Afterfuture

Mike Ladd

1/5

My goodness, I appreciate people's hard work and everything, but this is one of the top 1000 albums? By whose metrics?
