3/5

Crooning lead singer Ed Zepp encapsulates the psyche of the times. Punching lyricism that will leave you pondering if this is an allegory for the Vietnam War or if he was just a massive gooner. "Babe, ah-ah,ah-ow,ah-ah,ah-ah-ah,ah-da,ah-ah-ah-ah-da-da" ("Babe I'm Gonna Leave You") and "Ah,ah,ah,ah Aah-ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, aah, oh,yeah,alright" ("Dazed & Confused") Would be 10x better if each song was 4minutes long

4/5

Invented sadness

Tigermilk

Belle & Sebastian

1/5

I first came across Tigermilk aged 11 perusing the indie rock section of Rough Trade Records, the shapely breasts of the cover began my sexual genesis. I convinced my father to lend me 2 shillings and purchased this album. When I heard this lispy man with no Scottish accent mention Debenhams I entered a state of clarity and turned this crap off.

Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus

Spirit

2/5

I have nothing to say

The ArchAndroid

Janelle Monáe

I first heard Janelle Monae in 2018 on the critically acclaimed 'Dirty Computer'

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

2/5

Try not to mention a highway challenge: impossible First two songs are good, the rest sound like this: "Ohhh I doodled my pen, 'til I ran out of ink. Found a new girl and I pounded her pink. *harmonica solo*"

Deja Vu

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

Selected Ambient Works 85-92

Aphex Twin

2/5

put asap rocky on the 1st tune. why do 90s electronic artists put random sample bullshit on in the background? random goofy sound to kill the vibe in every song They need to make abridged versions of their albums for when you're not inebriated.

Strangeways, Here We Come

The Smiths

2/5

I thought The Smiths only released compilation albums? Big up Marr and Rourke, but even they couldn't subdue the fart sniffing wanker in command. Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me will be added to my playlist (the version without 2minutes of wankyness at the start)
