I thought it was a bit slow for my tastes, but that's probably because I'm not super familiar with the genre.

It's pretty good, but I've always found REM to be too slow. I think I probably would have really liked this in another life.

Pretty good and upbeat. Reminds me of early 2000s-ish rap with some Crystal Method vibes mixed in. 3/5

I started getting into Donovan's stuff after going down the Beatles White Album rabbit hole. I was familiar with Sunshine Superman and Season of the Witch. The rest of the album was great and I could see myself putting this one on the rotator for a while.

I like it. I'm going to go out on a limb here and it sounds like a merger of the 80s vocal sound (The Jam/The Clash) with some later 90s stuff (Portishead, Massive Attack). 4/5

It's really good, saying this for a genre I'm not well versed in. Good groove from the first song on. Incredible vocals. Bass line is catchy and noticeable. It could be background music or active listening. 4/5

This one was formative for me so it's going to be a bit biased. Even though the sound is dated and nu metal is a meme, the album holds up. 4/5

This is great productivity music. Will add to the rotation. 4/5

Having never listened to this full album, I always thought Belle and Sebastian were kind of boring. After giving this thing a spin, I've gotta say, I kind of dig it! It's still not what I would consider "exciting" music, but that's okay. I can hear a lot of inspiration for the next generation of indie acts. 4/5

I mean... it's one of my favorite albums of all time. It still has a bit of that bubble gum Beatles sound to it, but it also brings in the sitar and the psychadelia. For No One is a perfect song.

Another one I've heard people rave about but I've never given it a chance. It sounds good... good enough for multiple listens. The sound is timeless (except for the cheesy 80s bass).

I'm forcing myself through this one. Not something I would willfully choose to listen to without the help of a project like this. 2/5

I used to like a few Christine and the Queens songs back in the day. This is decent, but a little too poppy for my tastes. 3/5

What the hell am I listening to?!
