Tusk

Fleetwood Mac

3/5

Very well recorded. Awesome bass lines and the drums pop off on several tracks. I love the drums on "what makes you think you're the one". The early synths and guitar pedal effects were awesome. I like the experimental Insturmentals but the vocals and song structures were very simple, although very good. Some songs are very traditional almost folk like style, while others are very experimental. Most of the songs are very well made, just not quite the style I like to listen to regularly.

Gorillaz

2/5

Clint Eastwood was good. Everything else was incredibly mid.

The Genius Of Ray Charles

Ray Charles

5/5

Awesome big band blues sound. Ray Charles has an incredible voice. Some of the most powerful love songs I've heard. I ended up adding 3 songs from this album to my main playlist.

Hunky Dory

David Bowie

3/5

Very well made. The people involved are very talented. David Bowie can SING! But ultimately, just not really my style, I wasn't really able to get into many of the songs. My favorite song was "Changes"

Underwhelming apolitical punk rock. If the same music was put to actually decent lyrics and interesting vocals, it would be a 4.

The Marshall Mathers LP

Eminem

3/5

"The real slim shady" and "stan" are incredible tracks that earn the album an extra star. Unfortunately that start gets taken away due to the blatant homophobia and 14 year old level angst. He was 28 years old when he made this album, grow up. I love eminem but you can tell he was going through some shit because this album just feels like a pretentious therapy session.

Apparently all you have to do to write folk music is tell some bland story, mumble some surface-level thought about social justice, and optionally make the lyrics rhyme. "Why?" Was by far the worst song.
