Fuzzy Logic
Super Furry AnimalsFuzzy and weird. Does justice to its title, the fuzz pedals are omnipresent and turned up to eleven. Bookended by solid tracks, did not care much for the burger though.

A dark and mellow atmospheric ride. A bit too much similarity between the songs do cause it to be a bit monotonous (is that a real word?) for a whole album stretch. It has it's time and place, but I'll stick to Dylan for my 60's folky stuff for now. Enjoy the lyrics though. Favorite track: The Stranger Song
I think Prince likes sex. Favorite Track: Little Red Corvette
Really slick production, particulalry juicy basslines. But quite uneven, and lyrically dodgy overall. Favorite track: Smooth Criminal
Stable debut from post-nirvana Grohl, historically and culturally significant but not much replay value. Favorite track: I'll Stick Around
Lyrics shady af
Through the years I have sometimes wondered what the rest of the album sounds like, having only heard Clint Eastwood on the radio while in grammar school. Now I know. Feels more like a collection of rough song sketches than a coherent album. A hard listen for me. Still bopping along to Clint Eastwood tho. Favorite track: Clint Eastwood
Opening track left me pleasantly surprised, did not expect that sound. Did not get the hype around Bettie and the jets, one of the lower points of the album for me. Favorite track: Funeral For A Friend / Love Lies Bleeding
One of those albums that I have always been aware of, but never played. As a guitar player, it's an inspiring listen. Dreamy, etheral and drenched in reverb. The sometimes almost proglike compositions are quite enjoyable, the constant (ab)use of falsetto starts to grate after a while however.
Listened to the wrong album by accident, the covers were quite similar. Was about to land them a solid 3, until the reviews mentioned songs that were not on that album. After listening to the actual album, I had a Revelation and dropped two stars. Checking the artist, their third album is considered one of the greatest rock albums of all time, so why are we not listening to that one instead?
Not a huge punk fan, but will always give an extra star for saxophones.
Smooth indeed. Easy listening but does not hold my attention enough for a lasting impression. As always torn between giving reviews for good workmanship vs personal preference. Favorite track: Smooth Operator
Reason I got into music
Decided that I did not like Amy Winehouse when this came out while I was a teenager. Can't remember why. Even though I'm tired to death of the singing style this album created, it deserves credit for it's place in time.
As I read in another review on here: I can recognize a nicely made cup of tea, but I still prefer coffee.
Album is a bit to long, got a stale neck from bopping along.
Vera, tear down this wall
The older I get, the less I like The Offspring. Young me and middle age me do not agree on the value of this album. Guess I gotta keep em separated.
Starts of real strong but drops off a bit towards the end.
I want to like it. But I don't.
3 + 3 = sex
The glove did not fit
nice
It's Bob
I have a feeling this album will grow on me with more listens. Always extra stars for sax.
Jesus etc
Good background noise when working. If I listened to it actively I might have gone bananas.
Falling Below Average
Can trace some influences on naughties bands to this album. Cool, but not for me.
Easy listening
Sad songs for sad bois. I am a sad boi
Reggea. It's just not for me. And that's okay.
Stressed me out
Pleasantly surprised
Inspiring guitar work. Lot of the songs sounds the same during first listen however.
