Dire Straits by Dire Straits

1999 by Prince
Nov 12 2024

First impression: repetitive, long, horny, and a little dated. Not bad, but it didn't really move me. Also the 1 in 1999 looks wild phallic.

Parachutes by Coldplay
Nov 13 2024

- Predictable, kind of soulless, boring. - AI generated music before AI generated music was even a thing. - A corporate idea of what music sounds like come to life via some label who invented Coldplay in a lab to print money. - The lead singer of the band said this was a bad album, apparently. Makes me wonder if this album got a lot of bad reviews or something. It's not like it would be wrong for him to like or be proud of this album, I'm sure it was formative for a lot of people. - I dunno. I was over it halfway through and it just kept going. - Kind of hard to disagree with all the people who think that Coldplay is the audio equivalent of a "chick flick". Some chick flicks are fun, though. Romcoms are chick flick material, aren't they?

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Nov 14 2024

- I'm at a place in my life where I hear a band or an artist from the 80's say "f*ggot" and I hear the vine boom sound affect go off in my head right after. - "Walk This Line" might be one of my least favorite songs ever. I'm sure Dire Straits secured generational wealth with how overplayed the song is. 1001 troll recommendations. - first impression overall: Back loaded album.

Arrival by ABBA
Nov 15 2024

I might like this one better than their other album. The one with the blue cover. 😐

Young Americans by David Bowie
Nov 17 2024

- This goes hard in the Barnes & Noble. No seriously, I'm being deadass. The old Barnes & Noble I used to go to would play David Bowie constantly, but then they went out of businesses and got replaced by some bullshit. I Miss it. - When people talk about Bowie being a legend, as someone that hasn't gotten around to flipping through his entire discography, I listen to an album like this and I get it. - First half was stronger than the second.

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Nov 18 2024

Hahahahahaha, you fool. I've already listened to this album!

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Nov 19 2024

- Two Dire Straits albums in one week? Cool. - Sultans of Swing and the opening track šŸ”„

I’m a Lonesome Fugitive by Merle Haggard
Nov 21 2024

Wasn't my thing, but I can't say that it was outright BAD. I just didn't get much out of it from the lyrics to the sound apart from the opening track. I can get down to some twang, though. Kinda.

Elastica by Elastica
Nov 22 2024

First impression: half of the album is kind of interesting.

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Nov 23 2024

CAN YOU DIG IT SUCKAAAAAAAAAAA "We'll be right back after these technical difficulties" type music. - familiar sounding.

1989 by Taylor Swift
Nov 24 2024

I now understand why Swifties exist.

Foo Fighters by Foo Fighters
Nov 25 2024

HA! Heard it already! Nerds.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Nov 27 2024

Thoroughly disliked this one. Don't hate the band or anything, though. I guess just having this album get recommended to me as "one of the albums that you MUST listen to before you die" is a little much.

Fever Ray by Fever Ray
Nov 29 2024

Why was this so fire
