I appreciate this more than I did before. Obviously some great guitar work from Knopfler and some grooves from the drummer. Favorite tracks were Setting Me Up, Six Blade Knife and In the Gallery. Some of these tracks are just kind of slow and chill, i.e. Water of Love…nothing wrong with that, just one of those things I have to be in the mood for. So I’m going middle of the road with a 3.

Giving this album closer to a 1.75. While I didn’t hate it, I didn’t like it or love it either. This is the type of album where I’m sure they had fun creating and recording this album and bringing it all to life. But as a listener, hard to enjoy it just for enjoyment sake. This music has its place though. It’s like ambient electronic music. Could hear a lot of this at a coffee shop, or a certain type of restaurant and it might perk my ears up to be like, “what’s this?” But as a full album, not what I want to listen to on the regular.

Rush
2/5
Wanted to like this more, but idk. Rush is one of those bands where if you give me their greatest hits, I’ll take it! But for a full album, it doesn’t strike me. Loved the song Lessons, and I think if the intro track were broken into separate songs, it may be more digestible. Love the concept of the album and the inspiration from Ayn Rand. But a lot of these songs just didn’t make me want to revisit them.

Love this album! I know there’s some bias though. As a young black teenager when this came out, this album was pivotal to show there’s more to music. Really opened my mind. It still hits for me today. But may be one of those things where you just had to be there when it dropped to appreciate it.

Coldplay
3/5
People love to hate just to hate. Did Coldplay maybe sell out after Viva La Vida? Yes. But is there body of work up until that point honest, sincere and of great production value? Yes. Two things can be true at once. It had been a long time since I listened to this album and I expected it to be worse than I remembered. But it’s solid! Great melodies, great playing from the band, and tightly mixed. If you like Jeff Buckley’s Grace but saying you don’t enjoy this album at all, you’re lying to yourself. But don’t get me wrong, this is not nearly as good as Grace. Lol! But it has some of the same sonic qualities at times and beautiful lyrics.
Beach House
2/5
More like a 2.75. I feel like this album really found its footing in the later half. Another one of those albums that you have to be in the right mood for. Also, another band where I could take a greatest hits album from them, but not individual albums. Well, with Bloom as an exception maybe.
Arrested Development
3/5
Had been a while since I revisited this album. Closer to a 2.75 for me. Cool ideas, great rapping, but something about it felt a little dated and not as exciting as I remembered. Mr. Wendel and Tennessee are for sure the standout tracks.
The Young Gods

Ya know, I really didn’t hate this as much as I thought I would. I can understand the hate for Fred Durst, but the band had some killer ideas and riffs happening throughout this album.
Sufjan Stevens
1/5
I hate to do this because I’ve got a lot of respect for what Sufjan does and I enjoy a handful of his music. Also, he’s a Midwest person from an area nearby…but I was not feeling this. Just really comes off as a pretentious and long album. Love the concept of this album and some of the ideas explored on these songs, but they just came across as boring.

The Pretty Things

About a 2.5. It was fine. I love Psych Rock music, but there’s this very specific period from 65-69 where it feels like all these bands heard Rubber Soul and Revolver by the Beatles and tried to emulate the most psych parts of those albums on every song.
Laibach
1/5
Eminem
3/5
Ay yi yi! So much to say but I’ll try to keep it short. I’ll start by saying, this was the first album I bought with my own money when I was 10 years old. Edited version from Wal-Mart for sure. But I eventually got my hands on the explicit version. And explicit or not, I loved it. Obviously, not fully grasping everything he was talking about and really taking in the overall beats and playfulness.
I’m 36 now. So listening to this, there is some nostalgia attached to it for me. However, over the years as I go back and listen to Em, he’s really not as great as the pedestal we put him on. His lyrics…well, let’s just say they haven’t aged well. And his flow and cadences are even elementary like. The one saving grace of this album is the production quality! Even in 2026, these beats and the production value still slap. Could have been a truly timeless album with the right lyricist on it.
Wilco
2/5
The Rolling Stones
3/5
It’s a fine album. But I just don’t understand how this is considered one of the greatest albums of all time and I don’t understand how people say Stones made better music than the Beatles. The middle of this album is the best for me and I obviously love the hits, Wild Horses and Can’t You Hear Me Knocking to be specific. Although I feel Can’t You Hear Me Knocking would be even better if it wasn’t as long of a track. And man oh man, I’m not even going to talk about Brown Sugar in depth even though I should. Just gonna say get that song outta here!! I don’t care how many ways they try to spin that song into not being lyrically cringe or inappropriate…it is.
Paul Revere & The Raiders

Really want to like this record. I’ve heard great cover songs of the Pogues and I know how revered Shane MacGowan is…but this just is not it for me. Sorry.
The Offspring
2/5
At times this band sounds like a polished punk band that’s been together for a decade and at other times they sound like teenagers that just figured out how to play and want to be angsty. Take that for what it is. But overall, I just couldn’t get into it. Didn’t hate it, but I didn’t like it either. I’m more su surprised that Self Esteem on this album has more streams than Pretty Fly For a White Guy

Great album! Had been a while since I listened to this and I forgot how good it is from start to finish.
Dinosaur Jr.
2/5
I respect Dinosaur Jr. Even saw them live last year. But on this album, the songs start to all kind of blend together and J Mascis’ monotone singing does not help. I’d give this a 2.75
I enjoyed this album! I think someone said it already, but this is just solid middle of the road rock. Not trying to blow you away with their musical prowess or trying too hard. Just making good solid songs. 3.50 for me.
The Doors
3/5
The Doors…another band where I could take all of their songs I love and make one great album out of it, but I can’t say that I particularly enjoy any of their albums from start to finish. Listening to this, I feel like I’m halfway between being depressed or dancing at a swinging 60’s party. Interesting album for sure. But not something I want to constantly revisit. Favorite tracks are Light My Fire (love all the covers of this song too), Soul Kitchen, and Whiskey Bar because it’s fun. Really like a 2.75 of an album for me. But I’m gonna give it a 3
The Afghan Whigs
3/5
I’ve gotta revisit this one. Didn’t love it, but I also didn’t hate it. There were lots of musical moments that perked my ears up.
Meat Loaf
3/5
First off, shoutout Todd Rundgren. I feel like his production and insight to this album is what makes it sound so good. This is a very polished album. Music wise, it was not bad either. Meatloaf can definitely sing and it’s interesting to hear him on the non balled like songs. Think this album would be better if the first and last songs were trimmed down.
Bob Dylan
4/5
To me, this is THE Bob Dylan album.
KISS
3/5
One of the 3 star reviews already said it best, but I didn’t dislike this album as much as I thought I would. Closet to a 3.25 for me. I can totally see why it was a hit at the time it was released. But something about it is very eh.
TLC
4/5
Dinosaur Jr.
3/5
The Black Keys
4/5
Solid Black Keys album. This is definitely where they get more pop in their music. But it’s not bad! I think they did a great job at staying true to their sound while making it more accessible to the mainstream. I bought this on CD when it dropped. Always thought it was cool that the physical CD changed colors if it got hot. I’ve spent time with this album, so maybe my lens is a little different than most. But, it had been many of years since I listened in full until today. But it still held up for me.
Iron Maiden
3/5
I enjoyed this album a lot more than the other Maiden album on this list. Once I discovered they had a different vocalist for this album, I think that was the key difference for me. No disrespect to Bruce, but it’s just too operatic for me. Although, I’m sure that’s what people enjoy about him. But Paul Di’Anno has a good balance of not going too over the top. Also, this album had way more melodic moments than I expected. Good balance of beauty and rocking out. I’d actually give this album a 3.5 or 3.75
