Folksy.

First repeat artist! Turns out all those huge nerds in the 2010s telling me I would love Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds were right! Dug this one, although not as much as Murder Ballads

Not super familiar with Simon (or Garfunkel honestly). Thought the album started strong with Mother and Son Reunion and Duncan, but never quite hit those highs again. Enjoyable enough, would listen to more of Simon’s work.

Hot damn. I was all set to give this 3 or even possibly 2 stars after the first listen. I've never been a big Rolling Stones fan, but was kind of expecting this album to wow me. And that first spin, it just didn't. There were a few songs I enjoyed here and there but it mostly was forgettable. But the second time around? I cranked up the volume and all of a sudden it was like a different album. Standout songs: Wild Horses, Can't You Hear Me Knocking, Sister Morphine, Moonlight Mile.

Never would have listened to or heard of this one without the website. This one was honestly a joy. Relatively contemporary guitar focused rock/blues with catchy beats and good vocals. Their 2017 album Resistance also SLAPS!

Hell yeah. Smooth as all hell.

“Her voice is annoying.” Are y’all high?

“Alright guys. It’s the first song on our first album. Let’s not get too crazy.” *Single handily invents Doom Metal*

Folksy.

I’ll be this shit would go so hard at The Bronze.

Jeez, 11th album and you drop this much of a banger? Funky dancing music with some sick guitar mixed in? Hell yeah. 4.5

I have never in my life heard a song like Tonite It Show, where the music sounds like the town theme for a SNES/PS1 era Final Fantasy town, and the vocals/lyrics sound like they’re from a Muppet Movie. 3.5 Stars

Certainly some variety here.

Whew! Long as hell but some real catchy songs. Love Below was better.

My 2004 Dodge Neon ate this CD and for years it was the only album I could listen to. Five Stars

Never heard of these guys before but this sounds like 90s hip hop distilled down to its essence, poorly aged lyrics and all. Would listen again.

Wake up Dead and Peace Sells are classic Megadeth, but the rest of the album isn’t quite as strong. An extra star for being still very listenable, but it’s no Rust In Peace.

Nothing bad about it, but nothing that stood out too much either.

Honestly Superstition alone might make this five stars, but fortunately the rest of the album is also a bop.

Yeah chief this just ain’t it. I’ve never been a big country fan, but wondered if maybe the problem was I was mostly exposed to post 9/11 country. Maybe the old shit would be better, more like good folk music with more soul. Then I hit something like “The Christian Way” and I honestly don’t know if I’m listening to a parody song it’s so on the nose. First 2 star review.

Gonna need to give this one more listens. Love me some Wu Tang and this scratched the itch. 3.5 stars.

I mean this in the absolute best way possible, this sounds like an album for of Disney Villain songs. 4.5 stars

Will listen to more. 3.5

Cmon man, it’s Parliament. It’s Funk personified. 4.5 stars.

Eh. Kinda half baked. Maybe I’m Amazed is great but otherwise forgettable.

Never heard of these dudes and while the cover art is beyond cursed, I really dug this album.

Pleasant enough to listen to but not my favorite.

First repeat artist! Turns out all those huge nerds in the 2010s telling me I would love Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds were right! Dug this one, although not as much as Murder Ballads

Started fairly strong but lost me in the back half. 3.5 stars.

There’s some interesting sounds on here but they don’t always quite take them interesting places. Maybe a 2.76 stars but much better than the garbage Byrds country album y’all made me listen to.

Never listened to Costello before. Some song that sounded similar but also some honest to god bangers.

Awwww yeah smooth as all hell. Maybe my favorite jazz album of the ones I’ve listened to thus far

This is probably Neil Young’s best album. The trio of Cinnamon Girl, Down by the River, and Cowgirl in the Sand is truly impossible to beat. 4.5 stars.

Love James Brown. Not my favorite live album but the dude had it. 3.5 stars.

Hell yeah.

I really did not like the opening minute of this album, but as it went on it redeemed itself, and it honestly has some pretty good tunes.

Smooth as butter.

Man, the Big Four of Grunge are so good. Maybe the only knock on this album is it’s a little top heavy, with the post Jeremy songs not being as strong, but cmon, that first half is godly. 4.5 stars.

These guys have been one of my blind spots, can’t deny it.

Dang. It turns out even early mid Beatles are pretty damn good. Not nearly as inspired as their post Revolver output, but you can see the flashes of where they will go in the not too distant future. 3.5 Stars

Enjoyable and lots of songs I hadn’t heard before, but not as strong as the last Stones album.

I can appreciate what they were going for 20 years ago, and there’s time when it works, but this album just ain’t very good. Linkin Park is better than their meme reputation, but in other ways they’re like if Simple Plan was a little bit heavier. 2.5 Stars

1990 but sounds right out of the late 60s/70s. Don’t get the fools saying this sounds overly southern? It’s just a good time, man. 3.5 Stars

3.5 Stars

Creative with a wide range of sounds. 3.5 Stars

For some reason I’d always thought Machine Head was their debut album. This may not be as strong as that, but even hear you can hear the echoes of Metal starting to come forth. Child in Time feels like it could’ve come out decades later and been contemporary. 3.5 Stars.

One of the least enjoyable last 3 minutes or so of an album I’ve had. The rest was fine. 2.75 Stars

Just folksy enough without being too goddamn country. If you’re gonna make a song called “Christ for President” at least make it musically interesting. And dammit, they did.

Easy fiver are you kidding me. The Abbey Road Medley might be one of the most transcendent stretches of music ever recorded. And to get to it you have to go through Come Together, Oh! Darling, I Want You (Shes So Heavy), and Here Comes the Sun. Darn, what a nightmare. And the craziest thing it isn’t even the best Beatles Album (Revolver).

Never been a huge U2 fan, but this has a nice sound.

RIP to one of the greats

Before listening: Billy Joel? I mean I’ve liked the stuff I’ve heard from him alright but eh, not the most excited I’ve been for an album. After listening: damn. BJ got hands.

Getting to see Green Day perform this live in full probably fixed me.

My wife made fun of this album as we drove to hopefully our new home.

Not my favorite seed.

This was certainly an album. Not unpleasant, enjoyable at times, but never became something great.

Oh hell yeah. This one ruled. Smooth as a mofo.

3.5 Stars

I think this album is hard carried by the fact that he has a pretty nice voice. Instrumentally, this is chock full of country twang that grinds my gears. 2.5 Stars

Do a lot of AC/DC songs sound similar? Yeah. Does it matter when they often sound like bangers? Sometimes. Are their multiple incredible hits on here? Hell yeah.

I’m not a die hard Elliott Smith fan, but this just feels like an artist who came into his own so immediately that it’s a shame he left so soon. 4.5

Not my favorite Young. Doesn’t have the oomph of some of his best. 3.5 Stars

Opening song went hard but then didn’t hit those highs again. 3.5 stars

So this is what Bob Dylan music would sound like if he wasn’t one of the best song writers ever. This album wasn’t bad, but I almost skipped the goddamn Nine Pound Hammer song because that incessant pounding was literally giving me a headache. Coming up on 100 albums and I’ve never been compelled to skip a song before, so that’s just gotta knock you down. 2.5 stars. Still better than Sweetheart of the Rodeo

Hail to the Thief is a combination of some of Radiohead’s best (2+2=5, There There, and A Wolf at the Door) with some of the most eh filler this side of Amnesiac. Still, the hits are so great that it drags this album up to 4 Stars.

Music wasn’t terrible but -1 for apparently being a sex pest.

BGM personified. 2.5 Stars

Cmon man. This is maybe THE quintessential 90s hip hop album.

These lyrics sounded like they were being made up as they went.

Once in a lifetime is the standout, otherwise is good but not mind blowing

Jazz might be the most consistently great genre of this list of albums.

3.5 Stars

Ahh, perfection.
