Transformer

Lou Reed

4/5

I liked the first half more than the second. I was impressed that an album from the 70s sounded so much like it was from the 90s or early 2000s. Sounded similar to Cake to me.

4/5

From Elvis In Memphis

Elvis Presley

5/5

Had mommy issues but made good music.

Pixies

2/5

When the album is called bossanova but there is no bossa nova in it 🤬

Nice vibes. Good for working.

Ten

Pearl Jam

1/5

Could have been a two but the cherry on top to this annoying album was the final OVER 8 MINUTE song.

Led Zeppelin

3/5

It’s okay. Would be better if they didn’t write about and normalize sexualizing underage girls.

Morrison Hotel

The Doors

3/5

Chill vibes.

Metal Box

Public Image Ltd.

2/5

I wasn’t amazed, but I didn’t hate it.

After The Gold Rush

Neil Young

3/5

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

5/5

You Want It Darker

Leonard Cohen

3/5

I found this album jarring as a result of the large difference in the quality of Cohen’s lyric writing versus his singing. The words are beautiful, but the album isn’t the greatest listen.

The New Tango

Astor Piazzolla

4/5

Odelay

Beck

3/5

Once again, it very much reminds me of Cake 🍰.

...And Justice For All

Metallica

3/5

Not my favorite type of music but this might be a new go to for when I’m angry. My biggest gripe with this albums is that many of the songs don’t flow into one another.

Tres Hombres

ZZ Top

3/5

I liked this more than Eliminator, but it doesn’t especially stand out to me. Their music sounds like what they play in a Chevy car ad.

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

3/5

Faith

George Michael

4/5

Solid 80s pop album.

The Man Who

Travis

4/5

The perfect album I’d recommend to a woman if I were a performative male/male manipulator. Overall, it’s a good alt album full of love songs.

One of Princess Diana’s favorite bands 💔

Orbital

4/5

Good, but some of the songs remind of the Anti-piracy ad - Piracy. It’s a crime. from the early 2000s.

Back In Black

4/5

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness

The Smashing Pumpkins

2/5

Not as bad as other albums I’ve had to listen to for this album. Some songs were almost good but were brought down by other songs in the album. Also, 2 hours is too long for an album imo.

1984

Van Halen

3/5

Chris

Christine and the Queens
