First album, and I like where this is going.
The variety of styles and their performance amazed me. Several songs are prime examples of peculiar and wonderful psychedelic rock subgenre. Mostly saved calm ones to my playlist. Love the album cover, very pretty and distinguishable.

My first coldplay album ever and even songs, didn't have to listen to them much. First thought was "now this is gonna be the most boring album listening experience". Before that put a curtain around myself and listened to only classic legendary rock groups from 60s-80s or metal stuff. I thought these are gonna be blank, indistinguishable songs with boring lyrics about love or how beautiful life is. Oh, how wrong I was. The wall around me broke more and more with each song I listened from that album, reluctantly adding songs to the "obscured" playlist. The wall around my music taste was completely destroyed by the "Yellow" song.
Now I think I begin to understand what it means to be a music lover and listen to everything. Such beautiful vocals on this album, such beautiful acoustic and piano pieces. No aggressive or out-of-line songs in this album, truly a new experience for me and quite a magic one, had to listen the whole album twice to really enjoy the first half of songs after "breaking the wall".

Unknown Pleasures
Joy Division
Omg, english post punk. I like russian post punk. The moment I started this album I immediately understood, that this will be a blessing to my tears. Idk for sure, but me thinks that they are fathers of post punk, at least they're pretty old, so I think it's crucial for me to listen to them, and today that task is completed. Did I like it? Yes, a lot. Great everything: drums, guitar, bass, vocals. Unfortunately no song stuck in my brain, unlike from prev. two albums, even though i listened to this album 4 times today.

Adele
Ok, the first album i didn't finish, u just knew that second half of songs will be the same. What's the problem? It's the style. Main focus is on the voice. Yeah, I get that her vocals are amazing, breathtaking. But for me, nah. No melody, no nothing to remember from song except for her singing. That's why she's singing the whole song non-stop. Not a single interval for like 5 seconds to rest. Ok, Imma listen to lyrics then, if they insist on it. Every single song is about being sad/break-up. Enough! 50 minutes of utter crying. Maybe I'm not in mood or condition for her? Maybe if I'm heartbroken she'll be the savior. But, tbh, I hardly believe it. Or just it's my taste of music? I mostly listen to the melody, instruments, riffs. I start listening to lyrics only when i like the melody itself. But here, nah. Sorry Adele, but 2 stars only for vocals, they're undoubtedly great, one of the best voices of last 20 years for sure.
