It's an album that existed. If I was another person back when it was released, it might have really connected with me. Handshake and Future Reflections had musical moments I liked, the rest of it I either knew too well, or didn't care to know. Sorry MGMT, I'm not your audience. <3
I love percussion that sounds like someone's kicking down my door for 40 minutes. If I could have a fraction this album's energy in my day-to-day, then nothing could best me. The Beastie Boys' variety here is limited, but they do what they do best, and I can't argue with that - nor would I want to. Happy to have been introduced to Licensed To Ill.
Suffering. I have found out what genre I don't like, and it's called Neil Young. The best I have to say is that some of the instrumentals with the guitar in it are good, but then Neil starts singing and everything is ruined. Hell is a Cripple Creek Ferry.
Got a soft spot for Ray Charles. The music is from a bygone era, but still retains a lot of modern feeling, particularly in the faster tracks. Wouldn't really choose to listen to this, but I can appreciate it.
It's classic and chunky. Happy I listened to it, but I probably won't do so again.
Better than Led Zeppelin, if I was born in the 60's I would have been listening to this in some dark and danky corner. But I wasn't, so I'm not. Nice vibe, though.
Enjoyed the energy, some of the later songs in the album like Rage and Red White Blue were really good.
You know what, it's not my genre but this was really easy listening. really good voice, chill instruments, here for that this eve.
Nice hip-hop, always here for some hip-hop. Nice sampling in there as well.
