4/5

Excellent. Favourite songs - cut my hair, our house.

Alice In Chains

4/5

Tough riffs, lots of fun. You can see why they're one of *the* nineties bands.

Stand!

Sly & The Family Stone

3/5

A good album to chuck on in the morning. Interesting fusion of blues, rock, funk, r&b with some psychedelic influences which didn't ascend past being merely interesting for myself personally. Favourite songs - Sex Machine, I want to take you higher

This album taught me (once again) that Country music is not for me.

This music sounds like what I imagine taking acid in the 60s felt like. Terrific album.

Chore of Enchantment

Giant Sand

3/5

Good, weird. Probably won't listen again

Pearl

Janis Joplin

4/5

Paul's Boutique

Beastie Boys

4/5

This album was great. This sound sets the foundations of DnB and other dance music

Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor

Lupe Fiasco

3/5

There are some really great songs on this, especially the back half of the album. However there were a few tracks that I would not listen to again. The song Instrumental is a five star song.

Songs From The Big Chair

Tears For Fears

4/5

I love eighties music. This was particularly great. A lot of songs that I didn't know were by Tears for Fears.

This Year's Model

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

1/5

Not for me. Don't like his voice. The music is interesting but not enough to get me through the album.

Loveless

My Bloody Valentine

3/5

Reminds me of early smashing pumpkins. Dream rock. I found quite a bit of the album bland, lacking low end and hard to understand due to poor production. However, the sound they created is undeniably part of the 90s sound and there are some great melodies and lots of beautiful arrangements throughout the album. The song 'Soon' is amazing. I think I'll come back to these guys.

Maxinquaye

Tricky

3/5

Nebraska

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

Behaviour

Pet Shop Boys

5/5

White Light / White Heat

The Velvet Underground

4/5

I really liked this, musically, it's got a 60s rock n roll sound with some discordant rumblings of the first waves of punk rock that were emerging at the time. Lyrically their story telling reminded me a little bit of Nick Cave. 4/5 for me.

The World is a Ghetto

War

4/5

Os Mutantes

2/5

Interesting and cool at times but not my vibe.

En-Tact

The Shamen

3/5
