Crocodiles

Echo And The Bunnymen

3/5

Solid, pleasant on the ears. Nothing incredible going on though. 7/10.

Deloused in the Comatorium

The Mars Volta

1/5

So pretentious, and trying so hard to be bigger-than-life, they end up being nothing at all. Miserable experience. There's a billion better prog albums.

Violator

Depeche Mode

5/5

Dark, pretty fun, amazingly produced, great vocals. 47 minutes of ear-candy at its most elegant and refined. The best synthpop album of all time.

Fisherman's Blues

The Waterboys

3/5

Disc 1? Pretty pleasant. Some sweet instrumentation, nice vocals. Nothing too inspired but good nonetheless, although it is somewhat one-dimensional. Disc 2? Insufferably boring, continuing the trend of the latter half of the first disc. This has no reason to be as long as it is, just the first disc would have been fine. Or just half of disc 1, for that matter.

Sound Affects

The Jam

3/5

Enjoyable, palatable new wave. Short and sweet. Doubt I'll particularly remember anything about it, though.

Different Class

Pulp

2/5

Cringy, boring britpop. Get out of here.

Born To Run

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

Superb album. Amazing and conscious songwriting coupled with Springsteen's emotion-heavy vocals and the explosions on tracks like Born to Run and Jungleland are incredible. Only flaw I could point out is that the instrumentation is sometimes not the most interesting . 4.5/5, rounded to a 5/5.

Pet Sounds

The Beach Boys

1/5

Stale bread in the form of music. Fuck off.

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

4/5

Where Bob Dylan, over some admittedly whatever guitars, delivers incredible songwriting and vocal performances. He's an artist I had been meaning to check out but failing to do, but the love is justified. Great vocalist, even better lyricist.

Picture Book

Simply Red

1/5

Boooooriiiiiing.

We're Only In It For The Money

The Mothers Of Invention

1/5

A boneless Trout Mask Replica.

There's A Riot Goin' On

Sly & The Family Stone

5/5

A staple of funk and progressive soul, with great conscious lyrics which can get dark at times contrasting with the mostly mellow instrumentation. No real flaws to this one. 5.

This Is Fats Domino

Fats Domino

3/5

Perfectly okay.

Rocks

Aerosmith

2/5

Eh.

Come Find Yourself

Fun Lovin' Criminals

1/5

What?
