1. Kicking this generator off with an album and band I know, but haven't listened much. 'Welcome To The Jungle' has sections where the main singer doesn't sing (atonality), and those are always unique IMO. Wondering if there'll be more of those in the album? The breakdown with the junglelike drums (bongos?) was nice. 2. 'It's So Easy', deeper vocals than the song before, at least in the beginning. The chorus with the slowdown is a nice touch. Atonality/speaking again with the singing, nice. Otherwise, not *too* special. 3. 'Nightrain'... This one sounds familiar, even though I've not listened to it before?? Probably through Vinesauce Joel (Vargskelethor). This vibes, more melodic than the other ones in a way. 4. 'Out Ta Get Me', hmm. At this point, the sameness of the album is hitting: It's good, but not special in a way, you know? Yeah. 5. 'Mr. Brownstone'. Ooh, guitar slides and funky drums: Groovy. And the vocals are different again, having a jazz tone to them. At this point, my favourite track. 6. 'Paradise City', the longest track of this album. Very 80s drums. Liking the dual vocals in the beginning. Relatively chill to the other tracks, and it took a pace after the whistle. Side comment - the main vocalist's high singing slightly reminds me of ACDC's vocals, which is something I don't like (hot take), but here it's fine. Jamming tune. Interesting breakdown's start, and then it again takes in pace! Nice. 7. 'My Michelle'. The intro sounds ominous. Upon picking pace, it gains a groove, which seems to be this band's thing. Another case of sameness, but better than 'Out Ta Get Me'. 8. 'Think About You' has a rockabilly vibe with its vocals, but much faster. Interesting mix of regular guitar in the chorus. Yet another case of sameness (I am used to artists/bands that change tone/tune in each song, like Death Grips). The slowdown at the end is nice. 9. 'Sweet Child O' Mine', this one I know (as it's also the band's most known song, at least when looking at Spotify play amounts). This is one of those cases where the most known song sounds "the best" because you know it beforehand. Breakdown ("Where do we go now?") is quite nice. After listening to the track above, I took a long break (10+ hours, sleeping in the middle too), and returned to listen to the last three songs. Waking up, didn't really remember any of them (given that I listened to other music as well). 10. 'You're Crazy'... but this song really isn't, there's that sameness again. Seems to be a trend with this album. 11. 'Anything Goes'. This one has a unique guitar pattern in the beginning, and sounds reminiscent of cockroaches (one of those wooden instruments where you scrape a wooden stick?). The guitar with phaser effects in the middle sounds neat. 12. 'Rocket Queen', the second-longest track in the album, and the last one as well. The vocals with the phaser effects are unique. Atonal guitar sounds at around 2:00-2:50 tickle my ears pleasantly. The moaning sounds are something, too (I don't generally like them in songs, they make me uncomfortable). THOUGHTS: This one's, music, if that makes sense. Something you put in the background since it's good, but not that spectacular - one of the reasons this one sold so well? Or so I feel like. Out of the tracks, my favourite was Mr. Brownstone.
