go off sis!!!!! that was a great album, great storytelling, clever lyrics, good sounds all around. and such a journey from start to end, im almost at the edge of my seat waiting to hear what happens next but also omg girl just let that man go... dump him!!!

it's a depeche mode world & i'm just living in it.. bangerz.

(for dramatic effect) have i never listened to rock before? they might have done something w this heavy metal business.. im a first time sabbath listener so i just realized this is ozzy osbourne's band.. wheels of confusion - starts w that distinctly 70s sound 10/10 on easing me in changes - simp sad boy music is a tale as old as time. i feel like i just heard this song in a movie too & needed to know the name first 3 seconds of supernaut had me thinking of mitski nobody lmao. ok but forrealsies i think i declare supernaut my fav but sheeeesh talk about a no skips album im impressed

who starts an album like that.... (good way) baby be mine is a deep track id listen to alot.... so i will be listening to it alot ok the girl is mine... is that where this all started ???? is that why we have the boy is mine.. mind blown and then just bangerz... PYT is usually my go to off this album but i also need to give credit to beat it also v satisfying

feels like a huge cornerstone of the jazz fusion stuff i listen to & ive never heard of fela kuti until now !! observation no crime stands out 4 me very good when i'm listening/remember to put it on but also feels like some of the songs are hard to stick in my brain/re-listenability is a bit questionable. time will tell

this almost sounds too cool for the 1950s if that makes sense bemsha swing is a slayyy. again historical accuracy aside, it reminds me of bablyon (2022) - or should i say they could have been inspired by Thelonious Monk on their soundtrack...

i know he's from Texas but i'm ready for Nashville blue skies is a slay on the sunny side of the street - ok willie sinatra also the guitar at times.. its giving norteño.. he is also honorarily mexican imo

i love 80s music but i've never heard of this band. idk if i know any of their songs before now.. i'm actually a little upset at my dad now. i need to interrogate him on this. that being said, my only frame of reference leads me to say this - so this isn't oingo boingo? ok so definitely by heartland - this is def the kind of album i can see myself listening to while driving down the 60 (freeway) or down Valley Blvd anywhere in the SVG. which i only say bc reminds me of my dad w the windows down in the Honda, 80s music bumpin and little me in the passenger seat just wanting to go for the ride to Fry's Electronics. i think this is the first album on our list so far that i actually don't want to end. no skips. very cohesive. can see myself actually listening to again on my own. update: my dad does knows a few of their songs.

lazarus sounds like he's been listening to blood orange. thus i like. why's he so moody saxophone is the real star here i will not be listening to this again

i tried listening to this on my commute on friday, listened for 30 seconds, and said oh hell no and changed it to reggeaton. it was giving girl picking flowers in a field & baking focaccia, when i needed city girl driving to USC that being said i obvi gave it a proper chance bc never listened to an album by them i think i love this... scarborough fair is giving renaissance fair patterns - paris,texas (1984) at the very beginning homeward bound - bet im listening to this melodramatically on my return flights from now on middle of the album has some punch that i wasn't expecting they capture the sounds of whimsy v well overall pretty good & i could see myself listening to it again

cool album bro march of the black queen is v cool, hadn't heard before. but i think it has all the elements i expect from queen cant go wrong w seven seas of rhye (all i think of is bohemian rhapsody (2018) )

i guess this must have been cool at the time and i do like some of the sounds here but like who couldn't make this album? snooze fest lyrically

did a light listen here so sorry nick cave enjoyable. this alt rock sound is more my speed for some reason reminded me a bit of the last shadow puppets, maybe bc the kind of theatrics-ish that pop out here

go off sis!!!!! that was a great album, great storytelling, clever lyrics, good sounds all around. and such a journey from start to end, im almost at the edge of my seat waiting to hear what happens next but also omg girl just let that man go... dump him!!!

first Sufjan Stevens album and pretty difficult to get through for me chicago - OH so thats why this album is on the list. heard this one. was it in a movie? multiple? its giving indie movie breakthrough protaganist looking wistfully out the window of a bus ok am i done now? should i even listen to the rest of this after chicago.. ? "to the workers of the rock river valley region..." - finally interested in this album by this point "they are night zombies.." - also cool musicality here, like other tracks, sprinkled in

cool listen the kind of album if you played some of those songs i wouldnt just guess it was david bowie sound & vision a banger

this album was really surprising! never heard of this band but i liked this album. mr soul folk rock to a childs claim to fame country had me a lil shook. i just liked all the range here. expecting to fly is vibey.

really enjoyed this. "underwear" - im in a bit of a shock, im like woah the arctic monkeys are trying to sound like THIS band , really noticeable in this song

what am i gonna do not love the smiths? so im such a singles girlie when it comes to them & haven't sat through this album in full like this. i ended up listening to this on repeat more than any of the other albums, really wanted to absorb it just realized i do know more songs that i thought like "stop me if you think you've heard this before" lol so need to update my usual rotation last night i dreamt that somebody loved me - cool little build up to a great climax overall good & fun album, even if its not their best, v smiths nonetheless

pleasant

some cool songs that are familiar bc growing up w my dad, pop song 89, stand and orange crush. pop song 89 has like that cool bridge riff thing not part of the main chorus that i like. and thats it!

surprisingly enjoyed this all the way thru! mrs vandebilt hit. mamunia hit too close to home, too timely. between band on the run and nineteen hundred and eighty five - does anyone know how to make a larger than life song anymore.. ???

slayful. iconic beats, instrumental electronic sounds. lyrics are almost punk in a way i can't explain. looking for the perfect beat IS perfect. perfectly encapsulates what i love about 80s nu disco/dance music. after interrogating my mom, this is the type of song she has no idea who sings it or what its called but has def heard it in the clurb. even though its well before my time and gone forever, long live Peppers (city of industry,ca) <3 main chorus vocals on go go pop hit.

oh no way i can't believe they covered the that 70s show theme song!!! give me another chance is right in that after in the street i lost interested last song hits tho

like a prayer - now i can't hear this song without remembering it playing in kelli's karaoke and christine & jenn singing it like they are the last two people on earth who still like Madonna (10/10) alright ill be honest there are the bangers like a prayer, express yourself, and cherish but the rest make me want to pull my teeth out sorry queen

cool sounds throughout but surprisingly sleepy at times the kind of album i'd get to look cool but in reality i just want to listen to somebody to love and white rabbit and id let the rest play until i got tired of it! also dear white rabbit lovers - the cover by Mayssa Karaa on the american hustle soundtrack is slayful 11/10

now thats what i call rock n roll !? cutie album, pleasant all around roll over beethoven - anyone making lyrics like this anymore

yo piano man fr i get it now the bangers be bangin but i love songs like i've seen that movie too - masterful, takes its time, builds up the drama - this is how u make a song! i had to crank the volume up i enjoyed the journey that is this album

omg not the scientist its 10am why am i sobbing is this not as coldplay as it could possibly get

team xtina first full album listen & u know what, i get it

i like to pretend i hate the beatles even though i've been listening since i was 8 with all their music on my ipod when im sixty four is a big banger a day in the life is for when your dog dies right before you and your fam take a road trip to SF and you stare out the window looking at the gloomy bay

10s across the board! now thats an album!

i love rap's influence (im talking to you Epic) cool, even though i only listened to half the album and skipped the rest because i got the gist but could def see the influence on other bands 90s/2000s

i miss hip hop. certified bangers. stylistic choices here with the interludes... mariah carey's kinda scary what did he mean by that

im literally so sorry norah im not doing all this

just not for me!

enjoyable

a beautiful time. will revisit. will look for this on vinyl
