Great music, but not exactly my cup of tea.

This album has stayed with me for years.

I love PJ Harvey, but I prefer Dry over this album.

Basket Case, When I Come Around....Always bring back memories.

At first, I only saw Pornography as a gothic rock classic and wasn’t interested. But “A Strange Day” really got to me — its floating feel felt strangely nostalgic and reminded me of The Killers, even though The Cure came first. I also felt that Robert Smith and Brandon Flowers’ high notes sometimes sound a little similar.

Green felt more experimental than I expected. Orange Crush has that raw drive that feels almost grunge before grunge. World Leader Pretend reminded me of Come As You Are with its looping riff and that mix of dark vocals over brighter backing.

I knew the name but hadn’t really listened much. Now I’ve realized I really like “L.A.”.

Why didn’t I listen to The Scream sooner? Glad I found out I love McKay’s guitar—so sharp and clear, every chord note distinct, perfectly balanced with the vocals.

Acoustic but punky, bright but uneasy. Why didn’t I know this band? Blister in the sun got me hooked—time to check their albums.

Knew the name but had never listened before. Classic, authentic folk songs—definitely not my usual taste, but a reminder that I should keep my ears open beyond my comfort zone.

Strange how the voice feels familiar, like it reminds me of someone, even though I’ve never heard her before—there’s a kind of nostalgia in it.

I only knew "Save Me," and I love her voice and guitar sound, though I found it a bit boring.

Not exactly my taste, though I can understand its appeal.

Most of the songs are under two minutes, and the whole album is less than half an hour. It doesn’t stop on each track—it just rushes by like a whirlwind, fast and exciting. Simple and pure punk.

I like the album, but it’s hard to imagine myself being blown away by this in 1977. I do like ‘Ugly,’ though.

ELO’s Out of the Blue is a pop-oriented symphonic rock album. It generally lacks the raw rock energy I prefer, though they were probably a band that helped shape their era.

UK punk energy! Also prefigures 80s–90s American punk? Love "Ex Lion Tamer"—intro guitar riff rough, jagged, and simple. Just realized, Wire sound reminds me of early White Stripes—rough, garage-y, and somewhat sparse.

Similar to Radiohead’s electronic era, but without the gloom or heaviness—lighter instead. Some tracks had basslines I really liked.

Simply put, Clapton’s guitar shines, especially the bluesy “crying” in the All Your Love interlude. I enjoy the sound itself, but I wonder whether ignoring the cultural context and Clapton’s later statements is appropriate.
