Power In Numbers
Jurassic 5
Hip-hop isn't normally a genre I gravite towards, but this is pretty chill so far.
8 tracks in, getting bored. Not much happening, it's fine but boring.9 tracks to go though 🙄
They had a nelly furtado feature, which has reminded me to listen to Loose
Finally, the last track.... Overall it's just fine, nothing that I hate but nothing that stands out either. Very middle of the road. The flow is pretty good though, I'll give them that.

Already listened to this, potentially my favourite Bowie album (between ziggy stardust, aladdin sane and blackstar). There's just something about it that I can't quite explain.

The Number Of The Beast
Iron Maiden
I've always liked Iron Maiden, usually for their bass lines, but have never listened to an album by them.
Having finished the album now, have to say it was pretty good. Didn't completely blow me away but still enjoyable. Think I prefer their later songs.

Currently around halfway and I'm finding it to be boring, which for an album that later got turned into a musical doesn't bode well.
Update: physically can't finish it, made it through the majority of it but I can't put myself through the rest

Van Halen
Before listening: I'm only familiar with Van Halen's hits, there are bands from this era that I actively listen to way more, so I'm curious about what their debut is like.
After: For a debut rock album, this is pretty solid, usually it takes a few to find a decent set of tracks. The band are clearly very talented, but I don't think they'll ever be one of my favourites, which is ok. Overall a good time.

Ute Lemper
Going into this, I already know that I like The Divine Comedy, so hoping for good things.
Right, as stated above, I already like The Divine Comedy, and I'm a huge fan of Björk, Tori Amos, and Kate Bush. So this is exactly the kind of thing that I'm into. I can get why it isn't for everyone, but I don't care, I love it and that's all that matters to be honest. Will definitely check out more of her work.

Before: If I'm being completely honest here, I fucking hate Led Zepplin. I don't think they're as good as everyone makes them out to be. It also doesn't help that every music class I had for two years, this one boy wouldn't stop playing Stairway to Heaven on the guitar. So I'm going in extremely biased but I'll give it a go
After: It's nice to know I'm right about something, though I'll admit I didn't expect to be extremely bored during this album. All of the songs sounded almost identical to each other, why is this album rated as highly as it is?

Almost impossible to find, hard to tell if what I found is the complete album or not. If I'm being honest, not really my thing. I already have a love hate relationship with 90s electronic music, and this album hasn't helped at all.

Growing up, I was dragged along to folk clubs with my mum's band when my dad was working late. Considering that I just wanted to stay home, I'd complain the whole time, but was still allowed to make one request for the set list. If it was a solo gig, I'd ask my mum to play Big Yellow Taxi, if it was her band, I'd ask them to play Bad Moon Rising. This album brought back so many memories from those years, and while my hatred for folk music has disappeared, my love for this song and now album has remained the same.

First radiohead for this project, but was the second album of their's I listened to. I do like them, but have come to the conclusion that every radiohead song sounds better when Thom Yorke isn't the one singing it.
Ok, idk if this means I'm a sad virgin, but damn is this album good. I get why people don't like it but if we all liked the same thing life would be boring.

Don't Stand Me Down
Dexys Midnight Runners
Reading reviews I also agree that the fact that all three of the band's albums being on the list is a bit ridiculous. I'm hoping this one is the worst of the three though, shame I got it first.
This album is just deeply okay, not horrendous but not something I'd ever listen to again. Would have been happy giving it a three but it sounds unfinished in many places, the gaps in the middle of 7+min tracks give off the air of being still in the editing process.

It's only just dawned on me why they're called Minutemen.... that's embarrassing on my part. Really good basslines, I love to learn some of them, but it's too long and too samey for me to give it a higher rating than this.

For an album that's just over 30 minutes long, it sure is dragging out. Not bad, but nothing too noteworthy. Though Sunshine of Your Love is really good. Anyway, fuck Eric Clapton for very obvious reasons.
