More absolute waffle. I'm sure this had its place in every post grads CD rack in the mid 90s but it's just noise. The CD case was inevitably used to rack up lines of cheap coke on the low mahogany coffee table in the living room.
Some lyrics from the title track describe my feelings towards this album perfectly:
What do you want from me? , Are you trying to punish me?
Punish me for loving you, punish me for giving to you
Punish me for nothing I do, punish me for nothing
You punish me for nothing, for nothing

This was a tough listen, basically just music you'd expect to play in snippets in a lift.

Jesus christ, thank god that's over with. Took me 3 attempts to finish this album, a hard graft with lots of teeth gritting. I always thought I liked prince but thats based on that video of him shredding while my guitar gently weeps. Now I've had to sit through 1 hour 10 minutes of that I'm not sure I do like him as much as I thought. Sounds like a teenager who's just discovered how to use a synthesiser while refusing to sing directly into the microphone. Can't understand a word he's saying half the time and the other half is him basically having a wank with porn on the background. Mid 1.

Some interesting concepts in this album, mainly regarding Stevie being coy about putting a finite distance on the location of heaven. 10 zillion light years is a made up number so I'd love to see your working out if I'm honest lad. You could have just says a zillion as they're still illegitimate mathematical terms. You saying if we got some fancy gravity drive we could actually warp there? Get a grip lad you can't even get on the 14c to the big asda without someome helping you.
In terms of the actual album though, gets better as it goes on. It ain't no use and they won't go when I go are stand outs. Lifts it from a 2 into 3 territory. Also some interesting album artwork. Low 3.

Other than "the songs" it just seemed to be Anthony singing about his dick. Classic artwork, never actually listened to this all the way through before. It's alright but less of the dick imagery please. High 3.

Song I liked "the songs"
Sounds great, maybe there weren't the one hit wonders 8 thought they were. That song has just been ruined by too many weddings and birthdays at social clubs but still a classic. Good not great, won't be back. Low 4.

Sound of my school life basically, this, 3001 and slipknots debut album probably. I do prefer the slim shady lp but this is still iconic. Everything this lad touched turned to gold for years but shame he's still peddling the same sound now 25 years later when raps moved on. High 5.

After only ever listening to probably 3 cypress hills songs in my life I've realised all of their songs sound the same. That's not a bad thing but hard to tell them apart on this album. Still decent and I can imagine this slapped when it dropped early 90s. Low 4.

Appetite For Destruction

I wanted to hate this I really did. Between the album cover keeping top shop afloat for a decade or the big 3 songs making GNR the Coldplay of 1987 I had judged this album being it even started. I actually enjoyed it. There I said it. I wouldn't listen again but it's a high 4.

Maybe it's what has came after this that has ruined this album for me but after listening to this end to end for the first time it's OK. Just ok. Low 3 I think.

I'm sure this was groundbreaking and awe inspiring in 92 but I can't listen to 2 hours of this musical clip art. Sounds like a 2003 college music art project, some decent bits across some of the tracks but basically reminds of "the sound" from friends. Very low 3.
