2nd best beastie boys album, couple skips but the instrumental songs are all great and make the album a little lighter which is much appreciated

Atomizer

2/5

first full punk rock album ive listen to, good introduction. not my fav type of music, but the album seems well thought out and the message is always clear in every song. wouldn't listen to it again but i understand the appeal.

Peter Gabriel

3/5

Pretty repetitive but overall solid. love the song with kate bush and sledgehammer

Music Has The Right To Children

Boards of Canada

3/5

The songs are mostly very good individually but it was hard to listen to the whole thing in one go. I prefer Aphex Twin and Oneohtrix for this type of music just because they tend to vary the energy more.

Sheet Music

10cc

1/5

First couple songs were good along with one at the end but I really don't think this album stands out at all. Very repetitive.

Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor

Alien Lanes

Guided By Voices

1/5

not a fan of the production and recording quality. i get what they're going for but it just doesn't do it for me. songs are too short and lots feel out of place, the album doesn't seem to make much sense and feels like it was thrown together too fast.

Something/Anything?

Todd Rundgren

3/5

album is too long and honestly a little bit corny, but it's a great vibe and there's not many bad songs. Great discovery

Songs For Swingin' Lovers!

Frank Sinatra

4/5

so enjoyable

Seventeen Seconds

The Cure

4/5

I rly like this, very edgy and the second half of the album is amazing

Homework

Daft Punk

4/5

incredible but not a 5 yet, missing the excitement and diversity of Discovery in my opinion.

The Healer

John Lee Hooker

2/5

Out of Step

Minor Threat

2/5

pretty fun but doesn't really stand out to me as top-tier punk rock.

Le Tigre

4/5

i had never heard of this band before but I was very pleasantly surprised, really great album, just the right length too. you can tell they were having fun in the studio, which matters a lot since that energy gets passed on to the listener. will be listening again

Home Is Where The Music Is

Hugh Masekela

5/5

Amazing album, lots of variation in tone and mood, every song seems to fit into the whole structure of the album rather than standing on its own. Already listened to it twice, this is without a doubt the first 5 on my list. Very different from the American jazz im used to.

Let's Stay Together

Al Green
