Throwing Muses
Throwing MusesThis album isn’t on Spotify so it was harder to find. I’m still not really sure if I listened to what I was supposed to. I liked Rabbits Dying but I felt pretty neutral about it overall.

I don't think I've ever said "What the fuck am I listening to?" more during an album. In both good ways and bad. I Talk To The Wind is beautiful but Moonchild was like 12 minutes of ASMR. A lot of songs were so drawn out and at times felt like just random noises. It's a mixed bag but I think the chaos makes sense given that they were pioneering a new genre with this. It is very cool to listen to from a historical perspective and has some great moments but I won't be listening in my free time.
So much fun to listen to. Just feel good banger after banger. Everything was so smooth. I might like this cover of Summer Breeze more than the original, especially the guitar floating me away at the end.
I haven't listened to blues in so long. What a great reminder of how fire this genre is. I love being able to hear how rock has so clearly been influenced by this. GOT MY MOJO WORKIN!
I’ve listened to this album many times before. Upon first listen it brought a lot of confusion and to be honest I still don’t understand some songs. But I don’t think I need to understand. There’s a beauty in confusion slowly turning into appreciation into love. After ever listen something clicks a little more. How To Disappear Completely was the song that made me deep dive into Radiohead. I cried the first time I heard it and never felt so moved by a piece of music before. I got way into Radiohead, and then way into music in general. I started learning guitar and listening to more and more music I’d never fully appreciated before. So really this album is the reason I’m even doing this challenge at all.
They know how to rock so they rock. Pretty simple yet awesome stuff. It's kind of hard to listen to the whole album cause the songs sound so similar. But hearing any of these songs on their own is always so hype.
Cool but not for me.
I’d never heard this album in full and I love it! That opener had me on the floor! Definitely a new favorite song. There were so many genres and styles in this that it kept the length entertaining. And of course the absolute amazing classic Elton John songs are all on here. Overall incredible!!
Tom Sawyer was one of those songs I had heard in passing and liked but never knew the name of. So glad I found it! The rest of the album is just as awesome! Very cool to listen of headphones with.
Beautiful music and I love the storytelling. Wasn’t too interested by it though.
Very cool production on these. Fun to listen to.
Beautiful Album with some genuinely breathtaking moments. Right up my alley. Sad in a beautiful way. So many interesting sounds.
There are indeed some flamin grooves in here.
I almost fell asleep so I gave up.
SO COOL! I understand why I needed to hear this before I died.
This is so right up my alley it's ridiculous!! I LOVE THIS!
So many iconic songs in this one that I’ve heard my whole life. Those songs really raise this album up but I did enjoy the new ones too! Was happy to listen to this.

I wasn’t really interested at the beginning but I slowly started to vibe with it. I found some songs interesting but a lot of it was identical to Coldplay and not even the good Coldplay.
I really wanted to like this but I was kinda bored.
I liked a few of these songs. My favorite was This Mess We're In cause I'm obsessed with Thom Yorke's voice lol. I think the New York theme was cool, but for such a loud diverse city I was really expecting more creative and interesting songs.
Pure magic. Every song was so unique. Every song I finished I was eager to hear what the next one would sound like. This is probably among the best folk rock I’ve ever heard.
I really really enjoyed this! I wasn't a fan of every song but the ones that hit, HIT! Some songs have this epic feel to them. Also great harmonies on everything!
Very calm and soothing. I don’t listen to much bossa nova and probably still won’t unless I’m in the mood for it. But it’s very nice.
Good album with some great songs but I’m not in love with it. Hard to separate the music from how off the deep end crazy this man is.
Another REM album I’ve failed to like. By my tastes I really should like this band but I just don’t. It’s weird cause so many artists I love were inspired by REM. I guess I don’t like his voice. The lyrics are cool though.
I wasn’t super into it until the musical theater skit that is A Quick One pushed this to a four. Sometimes it was hard to believe this was live, very impressive. It’s too long however, I love My Generation but 15 minutes is crazy. It was a fire 15 minutes though not gonna lie. Overall very fun.
I usually love concept albums, but was very disappointed by this one. It's just some guys perverted fantasy.
Absolutely iconic!! Nothing life changing for me but who doesn’t love ABBA.
Wow that was good. Short and sweet. Even though I'd only known Let's Get It On before, I loved every song after.
Fun and charming. Lots of covers.
Amazing incredible music, but wow it really is so long. Some of the songs go on for longer than I could enjoy.
That was surprisingly pleasant and fun. Good music to listen to while working.
Amazing. Felt like I was gonna have a epic showdown at dusk.
