The first half of the album, the annoying piano is so intense that nothing else can really breathe in the mix. Second half was brilliant. 3 seems fair.

The guy who left the Secretary Rock review is absolutely unhinged.
Beautiful music, strong themes that are sadly still very relevant today. Gotta be a 5.

They lost me a bit in the middle, and the fact they wanted to release Essex Dogs as a single is insane to me, but if you are looking for experimental indie at its finest, Blur really achieved this with this album. I feel like 4 is too high, I would give it a 3.5, but such id our flawed voting system that I have to round up.

Private Dancer
Tina Turner
This album started off AMAZINGLY strongly until the title track presented itself like a blood-sucking vampire and killed the energy. Following that, it was like being upset in a nightclub, the party still takes place around you, you sober up a bit and try to get back into the groove, occasionally getting another drink, and giving it your best dance even though you keep being pulled back to being upset. It just doesn't feel the same after track 5.

Surfer Rosa

If this scale was /10 ot would be 8.5
Then you remember it doesn't allow decimals so you round to 9
Then you divide it by 2 because this is out of 5 so it is 4.5
But then you remember again you cannot have decimals so you round it up to 5
That's the formula for working out this rating, but the formula for an amazing Pixies album is Black Francis plus Kim Deal plus distortion equals a really really good time.

Rust Never Sleeps
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
This review might be a bit biased because I have fond memories of listening to this in my favourite bar back when I was in college. The only bad thing was when some magician guy tried to hit on me, not realising I was a dude with long hair. This used to amuse the bartender who otherwise seemed to be having a very frustrating shift each time.

I hated this the first time I listened to it, but honestly the optimal time to listen to it is when cleaning your flat like mad before visitors come and you need something to both calm you down and make you feel chaotic at the same time to keep up the pace. That is this EP.

Music
Madonna
Going from Ray of Light to this in two years should be a chargeable offence. It is no wonder that the word music is in quotation marks on the cover. Dull, uninspired, ticking boxes for a record. I hated this for how much I couldn't enjoy it - at least give me a reason to listen to it again even if it's so bad I have to laugh. This had nothing. And yet I will probably give Ray of Light four or five stars when I get it.

The singer's voice annoyed me and the band just felt like an accompanying act to her. Still, far more authentic than Madonna's "Music" so this isn't a 1.

Bongo Rock

I wasn't sure what to rate this. I won't give it a 5 as its mostly covers but...
Imagine if an alien came to Earth and said "We have been studying the instrument known as bongos from afar. Bring me your best bongo album or I will vaporize you. The fate of your entire planet rests on my opinion of this album."
It would be this album.
It has to be the best album to have bongos in every track. It's a 4.
Fuck it actually let's go 5.

I was debating between 4 and 5 for this but then I realised that if the lyrics were English I would be rating it 5 because the instrumentation moved me and I really like the singer's voice. I don't want to rate something down just because I don't understand the language of the music, so it's a 5.

I was so close to giving this a 1 AND calling it my least favourite album so far. Honestly, just listening to a chav be irritated about things, getting into arguments and fights, it is highly awful. Honestly I would rather have the "rare parrot" in the Stephen Fry clip shag me in the ear than listen to this again.
I am only giving it 2 because the ending song makes it come full circle and at least gives a point to the journey, but what a shit journey that was.
Edit: Actually, not many albums since have been as bad as this. It's a 1.
