5/5

I really liked this one. So much so that I was already going to the record store later that day and I bought it. I hate to break it to y'all but "Your Flag Decal Wont Get You Into Heaven Anymore".

(Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd)

Juju

Siouxsie And The Banshees

4/5

I really liked this one. The whole album was great. I loved Spellbound, Monitor, Into The Light. I am going to listen to it again

Psychocandy

The Jesus And Mary Chain

3/5

I had a friend in high school who loved this album. I like it but it always reminds me of him. He called it a coke mix. Something about the high pitch guitar noise. Just Like Honey, Sowing Seeds and Inside Me were some of my favorites.

Metal Box

Public Image Ltd.

3/5

I was looking at the reviews on this site. It took a long time to get one that was neutral. It seems like people love or hate this album. I liked it but thinking about it now the next day. It wasnt really memorable and parts were repetitive.

Channel Orange

Frank Ocean

2/5

This was ok. I have listened before. I never got into Frank Ocean. I wasnt listening very closely

The Stranger

Billy Joel

3/5

I liked it. You oughta know was great. It had a lot of classic songs on it.

The Visitors

ABBA

3/5

this was a different sound than I thought. I thought ABBA was super energetic. I don't remember the disco sound in this one. It was ok.

Either Or

Elliott Smith

3/5

I knew this album. I think it was the first one i knew on the list. I had a few friends that really liked him. He is very unique but it was just good

O.G. Original Gangster

Ice T

3/5

Crosby, Stills & Nash

2/5

Hmm, I guess it just missed me.

Isn't Anything

My Bloody Valentine

1/5

I did not enjoy this one bit. Want to hear the most annoying sound in the world? Track 1. From the very start it was a no go for me. I have heard of this band before never listened. In the wiki here says "shoegazing" which I like somethings. Not this one.

Tommy

The Who

5/5

I love this album. First one to come up that I own on vinyl. That was fun. I love the whole thing. Love the concept album. I like the story. I love the music. It is great.

The Real Thing

Faith No More

4/5

Really good! It was unique and I thought it was kinda funny. Not a super serious from what I gathered. It seemed just like they were having fun the whole time

Hearts And Bones

Paul Simon

3/5

I really liked some songs. Others were kinda silly. I don't know Paul Simons work and I only know the hits of Simon & Garfunkel. It was a good listen. Probably wont listen again though. I am glad I did.

It's Blitz!

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

5/5

I like this one. I might put it in my iTunes. I didn't know one of the songs was theirs. I liked the alt rock sound. It reminded me of when I was in school. Which was when this album was released. I am not sure how I missed it

The Genius Of Ray Charles

Ray Charles

3/5

I liked the album. I liked that it seemed different between each side.

In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

5/5

Another one I own on vinyl. #2. I love this album. Its all incredible. I don't know how they are so on time all the time.

S&M

Metallica

3/5

It was good. I never finished it. It was long but I just had a busy day and didn't have time.

Document

R.E.M.

3/5

Very famous songs on this album. 87 i had no idea. Doing this I have learned about the time periods more. It has been very interesting. The highlights for me were the hits. of course

Neon Bible

Arcade Fire

4/5

I had this already. I remember trying to get into Arcade Fire back in the day and it wasn't hooking me. I really liked this one. I liked this era of music. It was right in my time too. I will have to go back to Funeral and see if it seems better now.

Blue Lines

Massive Attack

3/5

Why does "One Love" remind me of a Persona 5 song? I'm not complaining but something about that keyboard. Very British. It was good. I liked it. Something about it seemed really stereotypical of those early 90s bands. I understand why they call it the first triphop album

A Little Deeper

Ms. Dynamite

2/5

British rappers are all similar. I don't get it. It was ok but not my favorite. I don't have any highlights. It seemed like every British rapper i have ever listened too.

Aftermath

The Rolling Stones

3/5

Good have not heard this Rolling stones. I listened the US version. I never really read why there were two fairly different releases between the US and UK.

A Northern Soul

The Verve

3/5

It was good I liked it. I had a compilation of their greatest hits a long time ago. Its cool but lots of Brits so far. Loved "This is Music", "On your own", "History" and, "Reprise".

John Prine

5/5

I really liked this one. So much so that I was already going to the record store later that day and I bought it. I hate to break it to y'all but "Your Flag Decal Wont Get You Into Heaven Anymore".

Earth, Wind & Fire

3/5

Good

This Year's Model

Tom Waits

3/5

Listened a few times. I hated the vocals at first but near the end of the album I thought they were great. Good

White Ladder

David Gray

3/5

The hits were good. I enjoyed the album. Now that you tell me Dave Matthews Band is associated with the artist it makes sense.

Buena Vista Social Club

3/5

Cool album in a language I don't know. Still good. Love the latin sound.

Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus

Spirit

3/5

3/5

Natty Dread

Bob Marley & The Wailers

3/5

Its the Tolkien problem. I have heard a million different versions of these songs. So the original seems slow and simple. I still liked it

(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Oasis

1/5

The last place I worked had a strict no Oasis or Sublime rule. I'm listening but I am not happy about it. Two tracks in and we were right to ban Oasis.

There's A Riot Goin' On

Sly & The Family Stone

3/5

A Night At The Opera

Queen

3/5

Blood On The Tracks

Bob Dylan

3/5

Seventh Tree

Goldfrapp

3/5

The Blueprint

JAY Z

4/5

Hits were good. Remember from back in the day. I didn't realize it was released on 9/11 pretty crazy.
