Street Signs

Ozomatli

1/5

NPC music - Latin edition. Boring, an on paper decent album of mixed influence that moreso sounds like taking garage band preset tracks and smashing them together.

Chirping Crickets

Buddy Holly & The Crickets

1/5

Totally fine, I’m sure great for the time, but not for me. A real happy snoozer

Hounds Of Love

Kate Bush

5/5

Wish I’d have listened to this 10 years ago. Haunting, beautiful, awesome. A new fav

Transformer

Lou Reed

2/5

Didn’t make it through, will revisit

She's So Unusual

Cyndi Lauper

2/5

I unfortunately kinda get tired of her voice, the hits hit, the rest was ok.

Pretzel Logic

Steely Dan

3/5

Maybe I’m messed up by listening to aja before this, maybe just not the time for me right now but I’m just not feeling this. Will have to revisit sometime later.

Low

David Bowie

3/5

Not my fav Bowie, another fine album.

Actually

Pet Shop Boys

3/5

Fun! Very 80s

Boston

4/5

Good, feels essential 70s. More than a feeling is actually a crazy opening to this album. (Didn’t finish tho ahhh)

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road

Lucinda Williams

4/5

Fantastic, will return for further investigation

Reggatta De Blanc

The Police

2/5

Singles were the best. Maybe just not in the mood for it.

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

5/5

I apologize Mr.Wonder, I was unfamiliar with your game. Fantastic record, fun, heavy at moments, just lyrically on point. Musically nailing it, just a banger of a record.

Fishscale

Ghostface Killah

4/5

A classic album, including badly done unnecessary skits. Versatile, bombastic, and of the era but good beats. Made me consider getting an oversized jersey and tennis hat.

Tres Hombres

ZZ Top

3/5

This is just not up my alley and I think primarily it’s the vocals for me. Better than I thought though and have a newfound respect for ZZ Top.

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

2/5

Hurrying up to show Rachel how this works, but wow American girl is a great song

Rust Never Sleeps

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

5/5

Fantastic, busy right now or would write more but I get why Kurt was so inspired. Top tier

Green River

Creedence Clearwater Revival

3/5

Rock solid, love CCR my el sobrante bros. A bit short, sweet and to the point.

The Soft Bulletin

The Flaming Lips

4/5

Always like the flaming lips more than I think I do. Closest to the internal songs of my soul than anything else so far.

Rust In Peace

Megadeth

3/5

So funny how Sam and I were just stalking megadeth. Solid, shreds but I see why they never rivaled some others of their era. Sometimes it feels like the song structure just is too long, like intro - verse - chorus - solo - bridge - solo - solo - bridge - solo and it began to drag. Would be more into a more focused record from em.

Who Killed...... The Zutons?

The Zutons

4/5

The Joshua Tree

3/5

I get why people were obsessed with this band during their reign but it really feels like a specific time and place. Doesn’t particularly hold up well to me.

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

5/5

It’s easy to assume Hendrix will be overrated, but I’m always reinspired by how underrated he really is. Guitar skills I still can’t wrap my head around and a smooth voice over some incomparable jammers. This album in particular has a little bit of everything, from laid back to trippy bangers and some classics on there with All Along The Watchtower, an essential top 50 song imo.

At Budokan

Cheap Trick

4/5

I liked cheap trick before this but this helped me get it more. I would even go on to say that there are moments on this that channel the Beatles in a way I couldn’t have expected. Wish I could have been there myself, fantastic.

Revolver

Beatles

5/5

A classic, pinnacle album.

Rumours

Fleetwood Mac

4/5

Ok ok, this lived up to the hype. Both fleetwood and max have great pipes. Front loaded for sure though, kind of a weak ending imo.

Hot Fuss

The Killers

4/5

This is an essential 2000s banger of a record. Although hearing a lot of the songs, I hadn’t listened to it front to back before and it’s like if interpol got a bit more poppy and focused.

Highway to Hell

AC/DC

3/5

AC/DC is probably too ingrained in my commercial psyche to review adequately. Like Highway to Hell is good, but it’s so culturally built in rock that it’s almost like listening to a windex commercial. It is good for what it’s worth, a bit one punch but to the point with their sound.

Walking Wounded

Everything But The Girl

2/5

Seemed fine but not for me.

Pictures At An Exhibition

Emerson, Lake & Palmer

1/5

3 legends of their instruments come together and make an album I would never want to listen to again.

Ellington at Newport

Duke Ellington

4/5

Good ass jazz

The Band

3/5

The most southern stuff I've enjoyed since Kurt Vile. The night they drove old Dixie down is an all timer song. Feels very 70s but they were onto something here. It doesn’t hit the highs I felt like they could have, maybe a rick Ruben or someone could have pushed them just over the edge to make this a legendary record. Almost

Microshift

Hookworms
