Sounds like Beth Gibbons singing.
Prefer Metallica's thrash-ier stuff but a lot of great riffs on here. 6.5/10. Lot of same sounding songs but not a bad way to spend an hour
Funky. Jazz/soul? Great drumming especially Happy Feeling and Africano. Some songs I recognize others I'm hearing for first time.
RIP, I thought this was a random generator, clearly not! Pretty amazing album, love the layered vocals and instrumentation. Mostly cheery but some sad/ominous moments as well, Mrs. O'Leary's Cow in particular.
I AM THE WORLD'S FORGOTTEN BOY. Quick and dirty punk album. Vocals and guitar are clearly the focus.
Soothing rainy Saturday music. Definitely will revisit this!
Listened while mowing the lawn. Just not my style but the guy has pipes
Catchy punk jams. Found myself humming along on first listen to some of them
I Zimbra and Mind were a great start. Life During Wartime is a classic and maybe my favorite TH song. Drugs was an interesting finish. Enjoyed listening to this very much!
At first I was like eh then I kept listening and listening and listening
Dead Drunk and Naked. Something about George Wallace. Good album
I'd rather listen to Gorillaz
I don't even think I've heard of The Fall but this is awesome. Maybe my favorite album from this list yet, I've gone back to it more than any other. NO CHRISTMAS FOR JOHN QUAYS!!!
Great album. Obviously Ziggy and Suffragette are classic but Five Years, Soul Love, Starman stuck out to me too!
~The Beatles~
Great record - Paul Rudd
Respect the hustle but not for me
Why so many concerts at prisons
What in the hell even is that
Fine but nothing jumped out at me. Better than Dirty Projectors though...
Some great guitar work and interesting songs. Some bland parts to start and round out the album
Too long but solid album with some nice folky tunes
First genuine wtf, no thanks
Bluesier than I would expect from the Stones!
Soft and sparse. Enjoyed listening to this but probably not something I will revisit too often, alot sounds the same. Suzanne was the peak imo
Brit pop never really been my thing although there were some interesting songs here. Sidewalk serfer girl, a touch sensitive, no sympathy in particular
Enjoyed this. Nice easy breezy listen. Especially the stretch from Oh Susanna to Blossom
Such an incredible album. All the songs are short, to the point and catchy. Revolver was good but this blows it out of the water!
I feel like I've heard the opener Stolen Car. I dig Pass in Time! Not really my style overall but this was nice to listen to and she's got a beautiful voice!
Holy fuck. A must relisten. All of the songs blended together on first listen and I never lost interest the entire time. I think "So Real" was my favorite the second time through, but so much greatness it's hard to say for sure. Wow wow wow wow wow
Great album but I can't help feel I'm still recovering from "Grace"
Solid punk. Tight instrumentation. Nothing stands out to me though.
He's undeniably a good song writer but his music approach and voice kind of bore me.
This seems like an odd choice but definitely appreciated the Scott Walker vibe songs and didn't mind listening to this. Especially the last song
Silly folk songs are good
Incredibly unique voice. Hearing Lilac Wine just a week or so after hearing Jeff Buckley's version was a nice touch. Recognized Four Women's piano from The Story of OJ - Jay Z!!!
Powerful record. Fast Car is an all time song, I also love the simplicity of most of these songs especially Behind the Wall. Compact songs that don't overstay their welcome.
All time classic, RIP Ozzy. Will be listening to this today but no additional analysis is required since it is and always has been an easy 5/5. War Pigs and Hand of Doom are maybe the most epic songs ever recorded.
The Low End Theory is my favorite. This is good and clearly influential but doesn't hit as hard as TLET in my opinion. This is also the first hip hop album for me on the list!
Some classic songs here. Prince is undeniably a talented vocalist and talented artist in general. Unabashedly 80s which comes off slightly corny to me. It's fine but not something I see myself ever getting very into.
Carole King influencing-ass music. This just never grabbed my attention
We Will Fall was half the album. It's decent, definitely a little basic sounding to me, but understand it's influential.
Some classic songs here but overall I'm just kinda bored by Eagles. Everything sounds the same.
Glam jams. Kiss+Alice Cooper esque.
Every song is enjoyable. The Boxer is an all time song, the rest is good to great
The instrumentation is really good but these songs just drag too long for my non-jammy tastes
Running up that hill! Nice artsy pop songs. Waking the Witch is nuts and the back half of the album is where it's at. Out there for sure
My kinda country. Compact sing song tunes, soft and buzzy. This is an album.
Rush is always decent. The 20 minute opener was more engaging than I would have expected from a freaking 20 minute song.
Some all time classic jams here. Eruption and Ain't Talking About Love are my favorites.
Sludgy with some unexpected doom metal vibes. It's a good album with some classic songs but I feel like there's not enough going on to justify such a long run time.
Saw the length and shuddered. Three Dylan albums in the first two months of this. Not every song needs to be 5+ minutes long Bob. 16 min track to end it? Sheesh!
Marcus Garvey Mon. Reggae.
Beatles and Bob Dylan mania early in my journey! Full of classics, enjoyable deep cuts, fuck they were high as balls on LSD for some of this.
Nothing spectacular, but didn't mind this at all! Good vocals and catchy 80s vibes
Teenage Riot alone got this to 3 stars, always have loved this song. Really enjoyed the rest as well, something that I can't put my finger on is keeping this below 5 stars but it's a great album nonetheless.
Some lovely trip hop with a bit of British weirdness. Recognized the "diamonds in the back" section of "Be Thankful for What You've Got" from the Ludacris song! Have always loved "Unfinished Sympathy", "Daydreaming" slapped immediately.
Good 80s record, very anthemic. F-F-F-Foolin! is my favorite. Liked the last song especially the final minute/hidden track!
Can definitely hear the influence of this album on 80s punk and on. Slow paced and methodical. Listened to this twice. Great use of reverb and unique drum patterns
It's alright? Probably won't revisit this, tough to hear how this is so influential.
Happy Friday! Love getting hip hop mixed in here every once in a while. Classic g funk. I've never heard this album in full before today but recognize so many songs. The run from Gin and Juice through Who Am I? Is incredible. But honestly the whole album is bangers.
Solid soul album. Obviously "That Lady" is a classic, other than that I think I liked the two covers I recognized best. "Listen to the Music" and "Summer Breeze".
Whiny Brit pop mixed with carnival music or something. Second half was better than the first. Better than Modern Life is Rubbish but still not really hitting for me.
Early pop punk? Perfectly fine but very samey throughout, songs are 3 minutes or less so easy to breeze through.
Victorian era ass Radiohead. I don't think I could ever get into music like this.
Sweet Dreams is a classic and I really liked Jennifer immediately following it up. Felt like Sweet Dreams kicked the album into gear as the first half was less interesting than the second. Definitely better than Rufus Wainwright.
Real shit. Charlie Brown be bopping.
Calm and soothing country for an early morning drive. "Ooh Las Vegas" was a nice late album change of pace. Emmylou Harris!
Dolly Parton, big tits and a bigger heart
Detroit Rock City is an all-time banger. The rest is enjoyable inoffensive glam rock.
Hmm. Definitely a lot of Bowie behind the scenes on this one. Iggy's voice is too removed and distant for my tastes but the instrumentals and structures are interesting. A second run through as with most albums was more enjoyable! Strong 3.
NIN sample of "Nightclubbing" at beginning of Closer?
Brad would be so happy for me. Hello is a banging track to kick this album off.
IT'S LIKE RAIIIIINNNNNNNNNN
Dug the reprise of You Oughta Know/hidden track to end it
Pretty sure Alanis Morrisette references Joni Mitchell on the last song of Jagged Little Pill, then I get this the following day. Listened to this during a nice run on the beach, didn't know what to expect but enjoyed this!
Prince man. He sounds so corny. I don't like this. But then all the sudden "Something In The Water" and "Lady Cab Driver" come on and I kinda like it? And then "All the Critics Love U in New York" low key blew my mind?
I like this more than I expected to. Wayne Coyne's voice is not my forte but the songs are very weird and unique with some psychedelic, catchy, poppy moments throughout. Pt 2 of Yoshimi, Ego Tripping, and Do you Realize are highlights for me.
Orange Mocha Frappuccinos!
Influential, German, trance-like, repetitive, atmospheric, ahead of it's time cyborg music.
Not something I would listen to every day but I think it deserves a 4. Can't imagine what this would have sounded like in the 70s. Been listening to a lot of Joy Division and New Order lately, the influence is evident!
Operatic hard rock. Bohemian Rhapsody obviously is the classic here. '39 and Good Company were two I was unfamiliar with that caught my ear.
Hell of a voice. I like the funkier stuff by JB better
Love Steely Dan. Aja and Gaucho are better albums but this is great. Don't understand why people don't like them. Funny lyrics.
Might have hyped this up in my mind a bit so feeling a tad disappointed. But it was still a very enjoyable album, really like the closing tracks random vocal samples. Some really nice drumming.
"Hymns" or "Dirges" or some shit
Goth rockabilly glam noise ...
Kinda fuckin wit it 😎
Just had Elvis' version of Fever earlier this week!
Happy Friday indeed. I've been excited to get this album, have never listened to it in full but have always liked songs I've heard from it. Big Iron is an undisputed banger to kick things off and this thing never loses steam from there. Classic sing song storytelling outlaw yeehaw country. Dude has a powerhouse voice.
I don't know why I'm surprised the folks who made "Dance Yrself Clean" made an album of this quality but this blew me away. Tough to pick songs for my 1001 highlights playlist when every song is this good.
Nothing really stood out to me besides the classics.
Two Steely Dan's in just over a week. This is my least favorite of those I've heard in full so far, but it's still solid. A number of shorter tracks which I'm not used to from them.
Hmph, first album I can't play on Spotify. Maybe it was the lack of flow from Youtubing every song but never got into this one.
This is probably the furthest out of my musical realm of 99 albums so far. I've never heard, or heard of Rai music. The Imagine cover surprised me. I will almost certainly never listen to this again but that doesn't mean it wasn't somewhat enjoyable!
100 albums in and I get hopefully the last album from this group ...
Liked this better than Walking Wounded...80s vibes fit this band better than the cold electronic music on WW...but overall it's still very cookie cutter and unmemorable to me.
A thoroughly enjoyable album bookended by two absolutely legendary songs with a lot of good-to-great in between! Keith Moon is such an epic drummer. The final minute of Won't Get Fooled Again might actually be the best minute in recorded music history.
Album cover made me think this would be a lot darker than it was. Good album. Beach Boys intrigue the fuck out of me. Sonically interesting and shit. Last 4 songs bang
Unique voice, a bit psychedelic. Hi Nico, bye Nico.
One of the first and only rap CDs I ever owned. As a kid I only listened to the hits, a lot of this sounded vaguely familiar but mostly new to me. Speakerboxxx is incredible from front to back and in my opinion superior of the two. The Love Below is a bit bloated but so out there you have to respect it, along with two of the biggest hits of the 2000s right in the middle, and "A Life in the Day of Benjamin Andre" is a masterpiece.
"Common People" was a decent jam and it kind of made me laugh when he said he was working on kissing my dad. But that was the second song and most of the rest seemed overly camp, straight cheese. Probably the intent but doesn't mean I have to like it.
Have been listening to so much Joy Division lately but have tried to avoid songs from this album as I knew it would be coming up. I'm glad I didn't have to wait long! Incredibly consistent all the way through.
It's enjoyable. But a lot of blues just sound the same to me? Love the gruffy voice though. Help the Poor was a nice finisher.
These songs just seem like they are from a musical and I just ain't in the mood for it today. Props for keeping these mid songs short.
A bit generic sounding to me, but also pretty enjoyable. Solid easy listening soft with some interesting instrumentation here and there.
He comes off a little ironic to me at times but there's a lot of interesting stuff on here. Strong finish with the last three songs. High key 3
Only knew Knights of Cydonia coming in; Supermassive Black Hole sounds familiar; sick riffs throughout, especially Map of the Problematique and Assassin; the album was basically the exact length of my run, seems meant to be.
This is a political album? I have no idea what she's talking about at any given moment of this. Eastern Anthemic pop gibberish. It's awesome
Album cover + title had me expecting something way different. Decent alt... Country?
Yup, perfect Southern Rock record. These boys were shreddin'.
More bluesy, Beatles-y than I would have expected. Loved The Ox to end it but was just fine with everything else.
When the first six songs on a record are stone cold classics sometimes you just gotta smash that MF 5 star.
Great voice and the audience is loving it. Doesn't blow my mind or anything though, just sounds like a good time set to some fairly standard soul music.
Weirdly compelling for an album I had to listen to on YouTube. Half AM Half PM. Revisit please especially opening track and the last 4
Mott's Hoople Juice
HARD 2 rounded up to a 3. Definitely hear a little Dylan.
Some interesting parts but too repetitive for my tastes.
Better than Faith. Prob good on GM for rest of list though
3 blinks off the Pen Stiller and this >>>
Two great prog rock albums back to back! Slightly edges out Can but can't quite smash that MF 5 star. Have a Cigar is my favorite, the intro to Welcome to the Machine is incredibly eery.
Real bluesy. Piece of My Heart is an all timer
Funky soul goodness. It goes on a little too long like a lot of this jazzy expressive shit does. Does the last song on an album always have to be the longest? Hard 3 close but no cigar on a soft 4.
Honky tonk my baby left meeeee
I'm not typically a singer songwriter guy but Elliott Smith just hits different. This album is so good, so quietly sad but uplifting at the same time. "Everything Means Nothing to Me" is such a unique song and will not leave my head today.
If I was listening to this live in a dimly lit lounge drinking a Manhattan and wearing a cardigan sweater, it would probably be a 4.
Band on the Run is an all time album opener. The rest is like a jazzier, less psychedelic Beatles. Bit hit or miss. Don't really like Jet but I like the callback to it on Picasso's Last Words so it's making the playlist.
Wasn't really vibing with this but it shifted to weird spacey electro funk towards the end and I liked it more.
Too long. This doesn't pop to me the way Massive Attack or Portishead do. Black Steel is definitely cool though.
Rock on brother 🤙It's not quite Paranoid, but even on first listen wow is it close. A lot of nice touches outside the pure heavy metal sound too.
I like a lot of the tempos and textures, the noise rock and trance-like elements, I really do. Bob Dylan-Bruce Springsteen vibes vocally. BUT WHY IS IT SO LONG
High energy, over in a jiff. Moving on.
Everytime they start talking about the Shogun and lords and shit, then another GRIMEY ass beat kicks in I'm just like "5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars"
But seriously there is nothing even approaching a bad song on here. Moving on ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
All time run to start an album, not a big fan of Songbird, after that is great to good.
Patton's voice is definitely something. With how weird he is I'm not surprised this album takes some strange turns. I enjoyed it more than I expected, great run from Epic (the only song I knew prior to this) through The Real Thing (did Coheed & Cambria base their entire style on this song?) and I really liked Woodpecker From Mars as the closer. Very solid War Pigs cover and a weird jazzy bop as bonuses.
Cover art freaked me out a little when I first opened this around 4am. It's a good fit for the music. Never heard anything like this.
Easy breezy listening. Can't hate an album that's 12 songs and 27 mins. Love Hurts is a staple and there are a few others that would be nice to slow dance or shuffle to with my girlfriend in 1963. RIP JFK.
Hot streak continues. Lazy hazy gloomy riffing and great drums. I'm not 100% sold on the voice but half the time you can barely hear it.
I love Peace Sells. The rest of this is thrashadelic cornball riffage
Maybe it's the big swing from Megadeth to this in one day, but it took me a bit to get into this. The If I Were President skit got this going for me and it was smooth sailing from there. Light-hearted, crude, skillful, soulful, funky backpack rap.
I'll listen to this in an Irish pub, or driving around in a clown car, otherwise I'm not really interested.
NO MORE,.MR NCIE GUY
NO MORE, MR YEE HEE HEE HEEE
Booooring. Nothing goes anywhere
Easy money. Perfect as is. Stunningly produced. Aja and Josie are the worst songs on the album and I'm in love with both.
MICHAEL MCDONALD ON I GOT THE NEWS.
It's between this and Gaucho for the best Steely Dan album. Gaucho not being on this list is a travesty.
Eclectic, jazzy, robo, funky, theatrical, Big Boi, folky, theme music, BABOPBYEYA!
Overall, gas. Personal vendetta against ending a DOUBLE album with a 15 minute song (it kinda rocked). Put it anywhere else
I can never tell which Beastie Boy is on the mic. Incredible sampling
That was the Meat Puppets. My favorite live album ever. One of those where you wish you could just SMASH that mf 5 star as soon as it generates. Where Did You Sleep Last Night is so fucking haunting.
A bunch of songs I don't know that sound weirdly recognizable. Good on ya Rod, I'll prob still only ever remember Maggie May as this all kinda sounds the same even though it's pretty good. The final track is the only one that feels and sounds different.
Weird as expected. Doo-woppy? Fucking tapped lyrical experience. Interesting choice ending an album where every other song is 3-5 mins with a 12 minute song about cream cheese.
A bit frantic, crisp rolling drum lines. There's some screaming here in the mix of some (most?) songs. Definitely of it's time. Good not great. Favorite - "It's Not Over Yet"
Drums were a highlight. Seventeen Seconds did a lot more for me, but there are some nice tiddlywinks here and there.
Black Francis dropping 6 7 references in 1989. Don't love every song on its own but sum of its parts or whatever. Tame is hitting HARD this time around. Gosh I love this project
This was a great Sunday soundtrack while making chili. I've never seen Shaft. This makes me want to see Shaft. Sample recognition "Elle's Love Theme"
Good listening to this for the billionth time, first in a while. Safe to assume Poetic Justice will remain the only Kendrick + Drake collab. Beat change in m.A.A.d. city blows my fucking mind. Part of me thinks Sing About Me, I'm Dying of Thirst should have ended the album, Real and Compton are by far the weakest songs here.
Boring, by the book 80s metal. Some decent riffs but nothing memorable. A totally mediocre Born To Be Wild cover is one of the best songs on here by default.
She Bop indeed. I kinda fuck with this, having two huge pop songs of all time helps, but some of the deeper cuts are interesting too. Witness has a little reggaeton island vibes, ton of synthy 80s energy throughout.
Is this sophistipop? It's solid. Not my style of music and his crooning sounds sarcastic, or just Scottish. Island vibes, jazz mixed with jangle, Morrisey, Scott Walker, Talking Heads, Steely Dan.
Probably my favorite of 3 Cohen albums so far. Title track was baller, the rest was strongly, somewhat boringly decent.
I don't know how to Politti-ly say this but Scritti Politti sucks. More like Shitti Politti
Beat my expectations. Some really funky jams with undeniable style. Love Phife and Busta showing up, and 3 Stacks to end it! Maybe the strongest 3 yet (but still a 3.)
... obviously...
Any Colour You Like sounds like Down by the River
All over the place, I don't mean that in a bad way. Unique combo of heavy metal, soft rock, punk, opera. No Doubt, Coheed and Cambria, Stone Temple Pilots. Great voice but I'm not sure it's speaking to me. Throw in a few dank heavy riffs for good measure.
Not gonna complain about more post punk. A ton of catchy melodies, the stretch from Return the Gift to Love Like Anthrax was very nice. Kinda wish his voice was louder in the mix so I had any idea what he was talking about - maybe next time.
White whale time. This is a particularly difficult album to not be on Spotify (just got removed a month or two ago of course) and listening to it while cleaning my kitchen on a 10 year old Alexa speaker probably wasn't optimal. I'm impressed, very singular sounding, enjoyed getting lost in the noisy guitar and hazy vocals. Looking forward to revisiting on streaming with a pair of headphones in. Holy shit To Here Knows When is incredible.
Shoegaze marathon continues after Loveless yesterday. But this is more like shoegaze-Brit pop-island music-chanting. The best drumming on the album is buried under the guitar heavy mix.
Pretty, not particularly memorable, French. Easy listening on a WFH Monday.
The opener, the title track, is obviously a fucking banger. I shouldn't be too surprised but there's a ton of good, catchy pop on here and some variety to keep it interesting. Not a lot of lowlights or filler, pretty amazing for a 51-minute 80s pop record. Just a tick beneath what I would need for a first listen 5. Cherish, Oh Father, and Keep It Together were the culprits. Overall though, bravo.
Slow paced and spacy. Shoegaze-adjacent. This one mostly bored me though. Nothing really stuck with me and the back half is a slog.
I play some pachinko, I plaaay Parcheesi.
Kinda loses steam after "All These Things That I've Done". Deserves a 3 but it's getting a 4 from me dawg.
I love old stuff. Only come here if you like that stuff.
Surprise, it's more Rod Stewart. Wait, that's not Rod Stewart?
Was unenthused about firing this up but it's actually really good. Love the mix of studio and live recordings. Also dig the distinct two halves of the album. 9 songs, 38 minutes, sign me up. Neil Young loves reprises huh?
I'm pretty sure I listened to the right one. 2 fackin hours. Grasshoppers. Background music. Repetitive. Galactic. I liked it more than I thought I would.
Have not heard of this group, I love the show though. Didn't know what I was going to get - turns out it's some classic 90's rap with bass heavy, funk-ass beats that flows really nicely. Reminds me of De La Soul, Slick Rick, Kanye, OutKast. Recognized 'Tennessee" from somewhere.
I remember the Stax museum
The End is so fucking sick
A long, awesome rock sesh for a quiet Saturday morning at home. Only 7 tracks! I'm usually skeptical of double albums, and 20 minute album closers, but the live element makes this great the way it is.
Some great songs. Pretty generic radio rock which isn't always a bad thing. Do You Feel Like We Do is a classic, shout out Guitar Hero 5. A 3 feels right for Frampycakes
I did not find this very compelling at all. A few interesting little tiddlywinks but overall this one just kinda washed over me.
I've either heard every song here in an SUV commercial or find it tolerable, fuzzy. samey blues rock. The hits keep this at a light 3.
Seems like I'm getting bombarded by live albums lately. Overall enjoyable. Hello There kicks the record off strong. SURRENDER
Great vocals, synthy drum machines. He sounds like a more charismatic Bernard Sumner to me.
Easy listening power pop. Tough to dislike anything here but not really blown away by anything either.
Definitely interesting. Dark, heavy, LOUD carnival music. Guttural. Some cool riffs but not a big fan of his voice (or French people). I'm going to go with 3 because I've never heard anything like this. Gonna pass on the bonus tracks though.
More bluesy than I'd expect from a Beach Boy. Dennis the Menace never really grabbed me
Great way to kick off Christmas week!
AT YO DOOOOOOHWOAHWOAH
Solid power punk pop. Vocals are like The Fall mixed with The Doors.
Creepy and French on Christmas Eve
Merry Christmas from a murderer!
Started hot, lost a bit of momentum but enjoyed it overall. Judy Blue Eyes is awesome. Was sitting back enjoying it not realizing it was the DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO song, goes so hard.
Salsa music is just so pleasant and I will probably never listen to any of it outside of being forced to
I was excited when I saw this album pop up today. More disco/dance rock than the fast, loud punk on their first album. Not quite as good but I still very much enjoyed it. Paranoia Man in Cheap Shit Room is an all time song title. Lights / Fireworks was a great finish, what a weirdo
The generator had a proggy classic Monday in mind for me and I'm pleased with it's decision. The ambient, empty ass middle section of Moonchild was probably my personal highlight, but the whole thing lived up to its rep.
I liked it to start but everything felt the same by the end. Somehow "I Wanna Sleep With You" and "All of This and Nothing" reminded me of Dimebag Darrell riffs.
Nothing wrong with kicking off the year with more Heads. 3/4 of their albums so far. This one's not quite as good as Fear of Music or Remain In Light, a little more stripped down but still very enjoyable.
Just finished Stranger Things Season 5 last night, what a coinkydink.
I got both MBV albums on days where I am frantically cooking something for a party in the kitchen while I listen and can barely focus. It's beautiful though. More punk rock on this one than Loveless but still a lot of spacey noisey stuff. Will revisit when they figure their Spotify shit out.
This blows. The drum samples/loops seem out of place. The music is uninteresting and his vocals and lyrics make me cringe.
I've never heard any of these Queen songs and I may not ever again
Easy breezy jangle folk country pop. Ethereal, quiet, comes in, does it's thing, promptly leaves.
Damn this album is good. Plenty of songs that I've heard somewhere before, and a lot of warm, poppy country with great songwriting. High Horse and Rainbow are truly amazing ways to finish out the album with the decent title track sandwiched in the middle.
Was expecting more Pogues style music but liked it a good deal more than that laddy.
65 minutes of metal bliss. Blackened hits so fucking hard as an opener. The drums on the title track are gorgeous. One was the most played song on my iPod RIP. The album never loses steam.
Some songs start interesting but putter out. STAY OUT OF MY TERRITORY. Overall this just kinda pisses me off
The same song over and over. I like this song.
Love the hardcore punk parts. And basically everything on here
I like these German electro fucks. Afrika Bambaataa, what's good buddy, you still a pedo?
Workin' Day and Night is INTERESTING. She's Out Of My Life is beautiful. The album is frankly pretty fire.
Learning today that "Funk Soul Brother" is not the name of the song, it's "The Rockafeller Skank". On a good little run
Didn't like the first two tracks and thought I was in for a snooze. Cobra Bora is kinda dope. Overall pretty good. Two straight electros.
Otis sangs the hits in his own fashionable way
Blue Rondo à La Turk all day on repeat
Meh disco. Some grooves and melodies are nice but they stick around too long.
Better than Pulp or Blur but still brit pop and I just can't fully vibe with it. Have definitely heard "Alright" before. The second half of the album, minus "Sofa (Of My Lethargy)" was better than the first.
Haunting, beautiful in places, but mostly kinda boring to these untrained ears of mine. Music theory and shit, vibraphones, whatever, next
It's not good Neil it's not bad Neil it's decent Neil. Walk On, Vampire Blues and Ambulance... Blues are the highlights for me.
This album started hot. Lost a little bit of steam after Me Ship Came In! But overall I didn't mind this at all.
Fucking incred. What a thrill post wedding pre shit storm snow storm go Pats.
"I've got a song about an Octopus."
"Jam it up your arse. You're lucky we still let you play drums!"
4/7 proper Beatles albums done ✅
This was cool. Reminded me of that Orange Juice album from a while back, but a little more creative and jangly. Strong 3. Didn't dislike anything on here, but not sure I love anything either. Well actually I loved the warped galactic ass harmonica on "Are You Ready To Be Heartbroken?" to end this one in style.
Ooo! Fun! I can't quite give it a 5 but this is a classic. Jackass theme song! So many great quick punk jams. Actually, I'm giving it a 5. See ya!
Ugly, creepy, and disorienting. Barely music. Categorically not the worst album on this list. Haaamburger lady.
Bright and soulful after getting dick punched by Throbbing Gristle yesterday
I always shudder a little at the sight of the 70's rock double album format but Thin Lizzy is good stuff. The bass guitar on this version of The Boys Are Back In Town is absolutely pummeling brother. The drums on Sha-La-La gave me no choice but to add another star.
Beach House-MBV-Kate Bush. All of that but you can't understand a word she's never fucking saying. Listened to it twice to confirm, it's APPROVED.
The title track is dope. It ain't Ziggy Stardust but it's alright. Plus a Stones cover.
City, Country, City is a jam. A methodical, soulful, jazzy, politically motivated Tuesday morning it is.
I thought about giving this a 4 but it's not that good. It is good though.
Surprise surprise. No idea what or who this is but I thought it was good, cohesive. Not as psychedelic or as dark as the album cover made me think it would be. Pretty jazzy and there are some signs of big loud stadium rock here.
Modern classic that I've never fully bought into... The highs are undeniable. Earl Sweatshirt shows up, love how slow and lazy Super Rich Kids sounds throughout. Pyramids is straight up stunning. Great use of snippets and skits.
Meg White is an awesome drummer. I knew this would be good but not this good. Black Math. Ball and Biscuit. Little Acorns. Well It's True That We Love One Another. The whole fucking thing rocks
Just like the first one I got from these guys...snooze fest imo. Sure there's some pretty music but the songs always go nowhere. Cohesive I guess but just sooo fuckin meh. 17 mins of noise crap for the final track gets this dangerously close to one star territory.
Wassup Nico. I like her songs the best, her voice is one of a kind. I'll Be Your Mirror was probably my favorite. Overall I enjoyed listening to this and checking another white whale/cultural milestone off the list.
Pretty impressive she was a teenager when this came out. Shadowboxer and Criminal are both very good songs.
A nice surprise. Slow but beautiful and a little bit haunting with the right amount of country twang and a gorgeous Beth Gibbons esque voice. The Elvis tribute is fucking awesome.
What the fuck. I wouldn't say I liked it but it's interesting. Demented deranged SpongeBob music Bugs Bunny happy birthday.
Relaxing, almost too much so. Everything kind of blended together besides both standout versions of the classic Girl from Empanada. I mean The Girl from Ipanema.
