I hear more of a Phil Anselmo trying to be quiet a library then a Mark E Smith (referring to the Spotify description.)
Very 90s, grungy post-hardcore
Rockets are Red has some cool riff
Let me come back is pretty engaging. Bass sounds awesome
Some fugazi esque guitar in learned it
Reminds me a little of bands like KING 810 and Nu Metal stuff, but more subdued and a bit less cringy for sure.
Bullet Proof Cupid is the most played song on their spotify, the chorus is very effective, the constant distortion engulfing the track is quite nice. I don't love it but it's goood. This one and Let me come back I like the most as of now
Hu uh
7 seas sounds very cool by moment and relaxed, the chorus is wacky tho not sure I like it
Was worried it was gonna be too grunge but it's not bad, the production is nice
I thought they were americans
Blondie, but a bit more punk rock
Like the instrumental the best up to that point, but would have prefered it if they built into pop songs proper
Starting with the wait the material is a lot stronger, Kid's a good pop tune
Gets less punk rock as the record goes on, but its also the stronger stuff
Not sure about the disco type back vocals
Yeah Brass in Pocket is good, the bass is really driving it
I enjoyed some of the poppier moments on this
Ooh, I actually never heard this
The album's an hour long and all of the most famous songs are the very begining, oh well
Is funeral for a friend inspired by wendy carlos version of funeral for queen mary? Clockwork was 71, so maybe? Really cool intro!
Guitar part aswell is fucking great (8 minutes in), just a great fucking song isn't?
The falseto part in the final chorus (pre chorus) of Bennie and the jets is so satisfaying. Wow.
At least, I had heard the title track before, obviously it's fucking good
Grey seal, the bass and the piano following each other is so tasty, good song!
Elton what is this
I've seen that movie too is really catchy
I kinda hated dirty little girl, but then the ending rocks a lot, goddamn you got me
Ok thiis one's the worst haha (13)
I dislike saturday
Just looking at my notes it's clear that the record starts really strong for me then it fizzles out. The closer is pretty decent tho.
I don't know if want to listen to this again haha I've heard it before I think it's overated, Under the Bridge is really really good tho, it might be their best song. The great Andy Gill produced this one, I really tried to like it you know, but it just sounds a bit grating to me.
I'll give 2/5 but I can't give half star
Wondeful moments in yours is no disgrace, the bass sounds crisp, so good.
Once again the vocals are just not my thing and the melodies are not that great I think.
I like close to the edge and fragile, haven't like their other stuff.
With all that said, nice vocal work in I've seen all good people, the rythm of it is cool.
Not my thing, but it's alright compare to some other more generic 70s prog rock I suppose.
I went back and gave this one a new listen earlier this year or maybe last year, there's good stuff on it and it was definitely influencial for better or for worse.
I think they're a slightly overated band, even tho I love some of their songs, this is probably a 3 1/2 for me if I had to give it a rating, which I do.
I'll round it up to a 3 star because I'm a bitch
Best tracks: Neighborhood #1 & 3, Wake Up
I'll try not to use "overated" for the next ones haha
Very pretty album
I like his voice, it somehow reminds me of some kinda or r&b or soul stuff in a way, a lot of color
Cameron Winters vocal delivery seems to be inspired by this alot on Geese stuff (which I love listening to in recent time)
I'll be back for this one for sure, Moondance is so fucking good
Fuck this haha
Homesick wasn't good but get free is such an annoying song right from the start, it's trash I can't believe it's supposedly one of their best, god!
Outtathaway might have been the best one. When the singer screams it gives it at least some kind of energy.
There's some classic british pop music influences in this. But every good idea they had came out sounding like dollar store the offspring or some shit. It sounds corny (not that the offspring dosent sound fucking corny haha.)
I'd get why someone would like this, it sounds like good songs by other band by moments. In the background it's probably fine, but a whole album is alot!
Mary jane is trash sounds like oasis
Aint no room was ok
Just had Sgt. Peppers yesterday and then this one! I'm also already quite familiar with.
Tempted to give this a 5
Hoping to get some more Zappa, plenty of albums I haven't heard yet!
This might the best pure "guitar" album ever honestly
I've heard Screamadelica, really like the track "Loaded", but not much else.
The very begining of burning wheel is pretty cool.
Kowalski is very nice! Bassline cool! The hit-hats type sounds rapid fire is so great!
Baggie. Neo psychedealia.
Medication has a cool attitude to it, reminds me of a Rowland s Howard song somehow
It's alright
It's not my thing
I heard ready or not before it's a really famous song, it's catchy for sure
I know who Lauryn Hill is!
To be fair, rn, in the metro it's hard to make out anything really haha
I'll try to finish this later today
Okay Fu-Gee-La is really enjoyable
The more r&b influences the better!
It was good, but I'm not crazy about it
There's something very dated about it, and some songs I find annoying, but also I still hear r&b artits doing this sound!
When it works it really works!
I heard this one before, I love little red corvet, dmsr and lady cab driver
3 1/2 at least
Love this one it's 4 1/2 to 5 for me
Hope to get something new tomorrow haha
Cool, I like my boy Neil and never heard this one!
I generally like his acoustic stuff more, Round & Round is quite good
The instrumental breaks starting in down by the river are soo slick and awesome, great song
The vocal melody in the chorus of the losing end reminds me of a bowie song
4 1/2 might be my favorite funk album
Fav tracks:
Sympathy for the devil
Stray cat blues
Salt of the Earth
3 is a bit low I know, I'd need more time with it,
3 1/2
This is really boring
Country dancing stuff
The songs are acceptable, some good moments of like classic american folk stuff
Is this album really an hour long?
Stars go blue is like a bad coldplay song, I hate it
I get nothing from this
The rescue blues was ok I think
Harder now thst its over is an alright ballad
I skipped a lot of songs after Nobody Girl when they started to annoy me too much, like I get it, this is toooo long
Love the cover
There goes Norman is awesome
Power pop dead kennedys
Immediatly very good
Sooo smooooth
I met a little girl, fire
Dooooo you remembeeeer all of the PSUHINMEE!Yeah yeah
Woah the sax solo in is that enough
I might like this better than what's going on
Anna's song, I love the subtle keys in that song and in general on the record, it's great!
Poo pee poo pee doo
Yeah it's been a minute but I like this one better than what's going on, it's great, long but great!
** I wanna say, I've been listening to what's going on after finishing yesterday's album and... (the album's great) inner city blues is fucking amazing god!
... this means nothing to me
Fav: Hallowed be thy name
At first it was alright, also I was in the shower for most of it; an unecessary long shower, not paying close attention. Then any day now started playing and it was really good! So were some of following songs, suspicious mind and Kentucky rain I liked! I was thinking maybe maybe the whole album had been this good, but it's really the ending of this.
Yeah it might not be the most famous song from this but Any Day Now is my favorite. Love this one!
* love the way suspicious mind fades out then fades back in, it's like the opening of Dune
**also I don't know if I think Here, My Dear is as goood as What's Going On, it's a cool sci fi funk Odyssey, but there ARE some classics on WGO. Anyway it's definetly worth listening as much as What's Going On or Let's Get It On!
**I feel bad for rating Maiden that low but well...
****might have rated Hot Rats too high, it's higher than a 4 for sure, but do I like it as much as Entairtenment! Let's say? (No) Or the other album I did rate a 5? (Not really! But it's close)
*****Who care anyway...
I mean yeah, chain of fools and natural woman are fantastic obviously
Ain't no way is great, short n sweet!
Never liked the song born in the u.s.a.
This is really samey.
I love I'm on fire.
In No Surrender the cadence of the voice is really Dylan-esque to me.
I'm going down really picked up at the end uh?
Glory days is annoying me a little bit.
Well I don't know what to rate this.
Violet's great!
She walks on me is pretty energetic
Its good!
Not much to say about it, I like the vibe of it for sure
