After The Gold Rush by Neil Young
Apr 15 2025

Overall impression: unique vocals, simple instrumentation, and nice mix of upbeat and slower songs. Not my favorite voice, though. Tell Me Why: Twangy guitar, simple instrumentation, different than a lot of what I listen to. His voice sounds young, too. After the Gold Rush: Novel to hear an artist pushing towards the edge of their range. I like that this song has a story to it. Modern songs don't do as much storytelling, which is a bit of shame. When You Were Young: Vaguely familiar, maybe? Nice vocal harmonies. Southern Man: Liking guitar on this one. First song with drums? Favorite song so far, I think. Till the Morning Comes: Meh, not a big fan. Oh, Lonesome Me: Child of Kermit and John Denver? Is that you? Don't Let It Bring You Down: Okay I'd really like someone to cover this who isn't Neil Young, because the songs are fun but his voice is just not up my alley. Birds: Such a different tone, both vocally and lyrically. Short but so sweet. When You Dance I Can Really Love: Fun title for a fun, upbeat song. I Believe in You: I believe in falling asleep at 5pm in the office, because that's what this song is doing to me. Cripple Creek Ferry: Very random song - kinda like it because of that.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Apr 16 2025

Such a wide-ranging album that it almost feels like an injustice to try and sum it up in a single paragraph. I enjoyed finding similarities between it and the previous Neil Young album, as both have varied song types, relatively simple instrumentation, and distinctive vocals. Looking forward to many more listens of this album!

Parts of this album serve as a good reminder that rock drew influences from other genres like folk and jazz. The production is almost nonexistent, just voices and instruments, and some of the guitar parts are iconic for a reason.

Achtung Baby by U2
Apr 19 2025

Definitely feels more modern than the preceding albums. I like Bono's voice and the more complex instrumentation.

Apr 20 2025

Started off well and has some highlights (Everybody Hurts, Ignoreland), but gets slow and kind of boring towards the end.
