D by White Denim
Apr 13 2025

Hard to tell what era this was from. It's got a sort of neo 60s psych pop sound. Great rhythm tracks, and a bit of variety. I liked it, would return

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
Apr 16 2025

Fantastic jazz album. I can't believe I had never listened to Count Basie, but he's here to stay in my repertoire!

Elephant by The White Stripes
Apr 17 2025

Hey, it's that song from high-school sports! Put this album on to exercise, or if you otherwise need to feel like a cool-guy.

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
Apr 19 2025

This is clearly innovative for it's time, but I could not get into the sound. Just kind of flat, boring, and a little annoying. I've been listening to Balanscu Quartet plays some of the pieces for years. It was neat to hear the originals, but I prefer their versions.

Calenture by The Triffids
Apr 21 2025

This is, without competition, the worst album I have ever endured in its entirety. A master class in ugly drum tracks which were justified only in how perfectly they matched the rest of the sound. Why was it so long? From the first seconds I was eagerly awaiting the end and it just kept going.
