2/5

I like sad songs but Jesus Christ. It's like if you pulled all the interesting instrumentation out of Radiohead and made the lyrics less weird. Not for me. No thank you.

The Slim Shady LP

Eminem

4/5

Outrageously fun, lyrically raw and messy but it adds to the storytelling. A real journey with peaks and troughs. Great. Standout song: My Name Is

The Low End Theory

A Tribe Called Quest

3/5

Faded into the background a but a groovy fun time. Standout track: Show business

Led Zeppelin III

Sorry Rhys. I like Killer Queen?

The Next Day

David Bowie

1/5

I'm sorry I really don't like Bowie. Mumbling rambling nonsense over repetitive instrumentation.

A Seat at the Table

Solange

2/5

Interesting. Lovely layers and textures, nice arrangements and instruments but nothing stands out as super catchy or brilliant. nice but not sure why it's considered 'essential listening'.

Roxy Music

1/5

Like the B-52s had an unholy love child with a worse arctic monkeys and there were no plans or song structures and the singer was a budget Bob Dylan. I will not be listening to this again. Sea Breezes was one of the worst songs I've ever heard.

Low-Life

New Order

3/5

Pretty good! Enjoyed the second half when it got a bit weirder and more instrumental. Favourite: Elegia

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

Kanye West

3/5

This whole album sounds great. It's his best stuff probably, because it's so rich and interesting, and he is neither of those things. Also he's a twat.

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music

Ray Charles

1/5

Might as well be the same song on repeat. I have no time for this.

Rock 'N Soul

Solomon Burke

1/5

Same song 12 times. Stop it.

Dog Man Star

Suede

Quite liked this one, pleasantly surprised. Went a bit moaning Bowie in the middle but some good catchy songs in there. Fave: The Power

Elvis Presley

1/5

I'm sure it was good back on the day but I would not listen to this on purpose.

What if a man was very drunk and had access to every instrument on gods green earth and just rolled around on the floor and wrote lyrics using a bag of Scrabble tiles. Absolute waffle.
