The Dark Side Of The Moon
Pink FloydPerfect album. Great songs and performances. Themes of fear and existential dread. Timeless.
Perfect album. Great songs and performances. Themes of fear and existential dread. Timeless.
Groundbreaking early psychedelic record. Sheds the Dylan covers of the early records although the songwriting is lacking on a couple of filler tracks.
Impressive combination of emo vulnerable lyrics with metal and hiphop inspired music.
Great songwriting. Solid 90s grunge/glam sound. Vocals a bit grating throughout.
Interesting synth pop/post punk.
Solid metal album with hints of Black Sabbath and Deep Purple
Solid synth-pop songs.
Perfect album. Great songs and performances. Themes of fear and existential dread. Timeless.
Pleasant singer-songwriter album with some interesting production touches.
Interesting and evocative hybrid of African desert blues and American blues.
Increasingly sophisticated production and songwriting. Early hints of where Brian Wilson was heading as a composer. Still retains the exuberance of the early recordings. Transitional.
Solid indie rock album. A couple of great singles. Lacks variation in sound and tempo as an album.
Pleasant folk rock with minimal production. Decent songs.
Meandering musical and vocal arrangements. Vague and impressionistic lyrics. Not particularly compelling.
Genre defining early heavy metal. The dark side of the psychedelic dream. Filled with bleak lyrics, great songs and a heavy vibe.
Uninspired nu metal. Gimmicky shouting vocals and monotonous grinding music.
Timeless collection of some of the finest tracks the Stones recorded. Spans country, blues and their own unique brand of rock. Great performances by the band.
Catchy yet inconsequential Brit pop
Genre defining album. Very cool and atmospheric.
Auto tuned pop confection.
Nuggets style garage psych rock.
Musically reminiscent of Parliament/Funkadelic. Lyrics have not aged well.
Complex vocal arrangements. Low key shoegaze type musical arrangements.
Ambient noises and samples. Not compelling.
The blueprint for rock and roll. Raw and energetic, before Elvis got sanitised.
Stunning final statement. Shows the best elements of the band working together. Timeless songs and performances. Perfect Album.
Blues rock reduced to the fundamental elements.
Haunting minimalist arrangements and powerful vocals.
Derivative electronic sounds. Reminiscent of Bowieβs Berlin years.
Indie synth.
Vintage songs and orchestration.
An abundance of ideas, a lack of editing or self control. Sonically ambitious but chaotic and scattered.
Uneven album with a couple of standout tracks.
Decent indie post punk.
Haunting meditations on death. Musically minimal arrangements that support the voice and mood.
Ambitious yet quirky indie album.
Chaotic collection of tracks seemingly without narrative or thematic thread. Impressive range of sounds and emotions.
Raw blues rock. Exceptional vocals.
Powerful songs and performances.
Quirky new wave.
Great album. Amazing guest stars that somehow donβt take over the album. Prolific few years for Stills.
Huge leap forward. Revolutionary songs and productions. Perhaps the best example of what each member contributed to the overall band. Each song seems to define a genre in the future.
Classic big band sounds.
Great hybrid of punk and traditional instrumentation.
Eschewing the psychedelic experiments, the Stones get back to the blues and start the classic run of albums of the era.
Indie synth rock
Epic in scale, sound and ambition. A sweeping outsiderβs perspective of America.
Great songs. Sterile 80s production.
Disco. Decent songs and great vocals. But still disco.
Solid songs with typical 80s sheen.
Peak sludge metal with some surprising variations.
Piano improvisation.
Catchy indie pop earworms.
Solid Bowie inspired songs.
Theatrical cabaret.
Musically interesting, lyrically puerile.
Inessential world music.
Soul and rap influences on typical 80s production. Socially conscious content.
Scrappy garage rock. Sounds a bit thin, vocals grating.
Peak Clapton, aided by Duane Allman and a sympathetic band. Clapton never sounded so authentic or engaged with the blues.
