The World is a Ghetto by War

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel

Folk is not my favourite genre but this album is delightful. Well written songs don't get old.

Station To Station by David Bowie

I'm not a Bowie fan but this album is worth listening before you die (fan or not). I prefer his other work though (Blackstar, The man who sold...).

Merriweather Post Pavilion by Animal Collective

I don't take drugs. I'm not the AC's target audience.

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions

Underwater Moonlight by The Soft Boys

Soft boys not so soft. 3 1/2 rounded up.

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music by Ray Charles

Scream, Dracula, Scream by Rocket From The Crypt

Here Are the Sonics by The Sonics

Gold by Ryan Adams

Crap. Being on the list for no reason, there are so many artists that should have taken the spot.

The Dark Side Of The Moon by Pink Floyd

A classic masterpiece, ahead of its time, deserves the praise. I can digest PF easier than other prog rock artists, it's not my favourite genre.

Ambient 1/Music For Airports by Brian Eno

Future Days by Can

Surfer Rosa by Pixies

Amnesiac by Radiohead

I liked 2 songs (Knives out, Life in a glasshouse), the rest is experimetal soundscapes that for some might work but not for me much. Still better effort than some other bands. 2 and 1/2 stars (rounded up)

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen

Automatic For The People by R.E.M.

I appreciate good songwriting and production but REM bores me to death.

Hail To the Thief by Radiohead

It seems like I'm supposed to give it a high score because it's Radiohead but this album doesn't deserve more than 3. Not one song stands out, it's a one big mass-sound with lots of electronic 'fart' effects and whining Thom. Still better than some other bands. 2 and 1/2 stars rounded up.

Casanova by The Divine Comedy

Annoying. Vaudeville musical is not my cup of tea.

Your New Favourite Band by The Hives

Low by David Bowie

In Rainbows by Radiohead

Movies by Holger Czukay

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens

First time hearing this artist. It's a no from me. I think I'm too old, cranky and cynical for this happy-go-lucky hipster art pop creation.

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues

Roxy Music by Roxy Music

War by U2

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Run-D.M.C. by Run-D.M.C.

The Slider by T. Rex

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads

First Band On The Moon by The Cardigans

Cross by Justice

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness by The Smashing Pumpkins

It's a good album with great riffs and songwriting (although some lyrics seem to be a miss) but it's unfortunate how Billy's voice ruins this music experience. He sounds better in faster and louder parts (covered by a wall of noise), slow or more melodic songs stand no chance. Despite that, I gave it 4 stars cause it's good grunge piece of history.
