Homework
Daft PunkSome very strong songs and lots of creativity, but it also has a few clunkers. Perhaps needed slightly more active listening than I was prepared to give it since its not fully my genre.

One of the all time greats, pretty much every song is a pop slam dunk. No notes.
Pretty easy & enjoyable listening. Moondace is a classic for a reason, but the rest of the album was new to me. I enjoyed all the songs, but am not floored. Hard to relate to whether it was innovative 50 years ago.
Really not my style. Monotonous singing, boring beats and lyrics which completely lack substance . I guess the best I can say is that it was not actively offensive to my ears? But I found myself constantly wanting to turn it off, so hard to give it more than a 1.
Something i listened to at age 12 or so. Really not my favourite genre these days, but it maintains some nostalgia. Still a hard listen, feels very teen-angst-edgy. Even if it grates at least there is some emotion in the stuff, unlike yesterdays rnb, so I feel I have to give it one higher just because of that. The real slim shady almost pulls it to a 3, but there was too much pure trash to get there.
Solid, you can hear many influences from ex. Beatles and other contemporaries but they are also very clearly their own thing. Easy listening but probably nothing I would regularly go back to.
Very much not my genre, but I'm enjoying it. Pretty pushy. It feels unfair to call something so varied monotonous, but at the same time it feels so improvised and varied that it all flows back into itself and I cant really distinguish between the tracks.
Pretty good, it's a band I've not really encountered much but its in my lane for sure. Maybe not a slam dunk, but many interesting sounds. looking at a 4 early on. Something I might actively put on.
Pretty generic punk sound, but it's ok. Not much to say, although why this one is includef over all the others I have a hard time telling.
Totally fine, if somewhat generic rock? obviously Another piece of my heart is a standout track and some of the others were very good. But I'm not going to go out of my way to get back to it. On the higher end of a 3, but till not cracking the higher rankings.
I've never really given Marley much of a chance, but I'm immediately finding it pretty interesting. The reggea beat is instantly recognizable. Enjoyed the listen, but don't see myself returning too much
This is borderline. Some cool songs, but it's pretty noisy. I appreciate that it's highly influential and all that, but ultimatelt it's hard to listen to for me.
Seems like a joke-band? Or maybe this is just the 90s vibe that I have forgotten. It's mostly just quite dull. Simple music and lyrics, not really seeing it.
Very chaotic, but this time in a way I like. Blister in the sun and add it up are some all time angry songs, the rest are good too but I don't see myself seeking it out too often.
A bad I have never heard or heard of. Starting out with a 20 minute mood piece is definitely a bold choice, but I'm enjoying it more than I would have expected.
It's hard to separate nostalgia from preference here, but both Today and Cherub Rock are deeply rooted in the psyche. Good album and I could for sure see myself going back to it.
Very Indie. Very enjoyable. Not every song hits, but when they do they do. This is right up my alley. Soft tones, lyrics with some interest. What's not to love?
Fully pleasant, but unchallenging. Sounds very 60s pop. Each track reminds me of the previous.
Perfectly cromulent. Some tracks are very good and some quite forgettable. A high 3, but ultimately i think it falls back on an overall sound I find a bit bland with the roomy soft guitars and basic drum patterns.
