A Rush Of Blood To The Head
Coldplay
I liked this one a lot more than I thought I would. definitely feels bloated in the second half and clocks and warning sign kinda suck. giving it a 3 because I probably won't ever listen to it again in full but I enjoyed my time with it, a whisper and god put a smile upon your face both rock.

in fairness to this album grunge just really isn't my thing, and two songs in I was pretty optimistic that this one would be different, not the case unfortunately. oceans > porch > garden is a very good run of songs and even flow is a classic, but I have a hard time getting what sets the rest of this thing apart from most of the early 2000s butt rock grunge successor bands that rightfully get clowned on.

Neon Bible
Arcade Fire
I hadn't heard this one before but I enjoyed it very much, it reminded me of early wolf parade and their adjacent projects like operators, which I guess makes sense in retrospect since dan plays with these guys now. no cars go and black wave/bad vibrations were the highlights for me.

Legalize It
Peter Tosh
the songs that are actually about weed are pretty uniformly dated in a way that's funny sometimes but nowadays comes off like fodder for typical dorm room stoners. still worth listening to for the ones that aren't only about weed being cool, let jah be praised and till the well runs dry are both great. for ideal listening I recommend buying in and doing bong rips while making a bunch of vegetarian breakfast burritos to freeze like I did.

The College Dropout
Kanye West
setting aside kanye's politics and awful behavior (which you shouldn't), this album just isn't very good. frequent dated and unfunny jokes, bloated runtime, proto-Hamilton delivery, take your pick, this is just annoying to listen to.

this album has so many cool ideas packed into such a tight runtime that I can't give it less than a 5, just go listen to it. it's got stΓ©phane grappelli on it for pete's sake.

loved it, if you like modern garage psych stuff like Osees or King Gizz you can't go wrong with this one.

it's good but probably won't think about it again, dunno that this warrants being on this list
