A Night At The Opera

Queen

2/5

Freddie mercury is to blame for brendon urie I didn't realize queen has songs where the other guy(s?) sing, they shouldnt have done that For some reason I did notes for each track 1not bad 2wtf 3wtf 4 smash hit 5kinda nice folkbop 6 (i didn't write anything for this one) 7 this is about jersey shore (and references my cat clementine) goofy fun good 8 acapella part in the middle is good, transition into LOML is good 9 awww sweet 10 ehhhhh 11 woah this ones wild 12 big finale huh?

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

4/5

liked it before, really like it now

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

4/5

I like the song about the guy pleading with the woman that he has feelings for dang they got a 10 minute song on this, i didn't know their game as someone who often listens with one headphone off, this mixing fucks me up BUT THATS MY FAULT I KNOW

Get Behind Me Satan

The White Stripes

3/5

not as bad as i thought, still a little corny. i still don't know if i vibe with meg white's drumming, some songs the simplicity works and some it really doesn't

Jazz Samba

Stan Getz

2/5

I mean it's fine, it just doesn't occupy any space in my mind. bossa nova is too agreeable for me to care

Back to Mystery City

Hanoi Rocks

4/5

thought i would hate this when i saw someone call this "glam punk" but It's actually really dumb and fun in the vein of turbonegro or the aquabats

Haut de gamme / Koweït, rive gauche

Koffi Olomide

4/5

deff a great argument for not playing to a click even tho Koffi is Congolese, he makes perfect pina colada music

Call of the Valley

Shivkumar Sharma

3/5

me hearing the dulcimer: ahhh yes, getting strong SWANS vibes from this me hearing the tabla: ahhhh, some TOOL influence on this as well, i like it flute @ 6:30 the control on the string bends is nuts do i buy a tabla??? side b draaaaaags

Machine Head

Deep Purple

1/5

remember that rock band commercial? uncle eddie music (i will not elaborate) 2 guitar solos on one track is criminal the stutter part @ the end of pictures of home is fun funny that Never Before has significantly less plays than the rest of the album, despite being no worse than the rest of the songs. when they name dropped frank zappa i realized i would rather just listen to him fucking boring im fucking bored

Tea for the Tillerman

Cat Stevens

Isn't Anything

My Bloody Valentine

3/5

Could grow on me but it's not loveless. I might be leaning negative because I found out that ALL 3 MBV ALBUMS are on this list and I think that's ridiculous.

Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots

The Flaming Lips

5/5

WOW I always assumed Flaming Lips was like the strokes or black keys or something, this is much much cooler and better. So far this is the first album I can see coming back to and diving into the rest of the discog

2/5

the production is wild but I just can't do the uk rap thing, I wish this wasn't a mental block for me but it is :( also doesn't help that I listened to this sitting at my work job desk in my fluorescent drab office box

The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn

Pink Floyd

5/5

when i got into pink floyd (vey recently) I listened through all of the early albums once each cause I was really just trying to get to the 70s albums. I liked the early records well enough but i was a man on a mission. I am realizing that my tunnel vision caused me to be a fool, this is so much better then i remember it being. and DG sampled multiple tracks on this so obviously i'm gonna say it's cool regardless The Gnome is about my lil boy bo
