Remarkably short album but it slaps. Almost every song is an iconic Van Halen song that has seen radio play for years. The only song I wasn't familiar with was "On Fire" which is incredibly good.

The Velvet Underground
Influential and ahead of it's time. At times haunting, and ethereal rhythms combined with Lou Reeds harsh real world lyrics (Heroin) and Nico's glass like voice, this album is a banger. Fun fact, Andy Warhol was their manager at the time.

Before I signed up for this project - "I bet these MF'ers are going to make me listen to Radiohead."

No one should be listening to this album that isn’t a middle aged woman who grew up listening to it and just wants a little nostalgia.
