Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde

The Pharcyde

4/5

Classic hip-hop, similar to A Tribe Called Quest with more jazzy flair and forward lyricism. Upbeat and exciting, packed full of flow and stories to tell.

Pearl

Janis Joplin

3/5

Classic and unique, this album doesn’t overstay its welcome yet has a variety of tracks. Great guitar riffs and an iconic voice.

Ill Communication

Beastie Boys

5/5

Full of classics, and excellent instrumental transition pieces. Essential Beastie Boys that own their genre.

Beauty And The Beat

The Go-Go's

1/5

Very upbeat but too monotonous for me. I’d compare it to a discount ABBA.

Hard Again

Muddy Waters

1/5

Old school blues will good sounds, but most of the tracks were too repetitive to me.

White Blood Cells

The White Stripes

4/5

I like that it’s minimally produced and consistently well-done guitar riffs. Easy listen.

The Infotainment Scan

The Fall

2/5

Very unique, but not something worth the casual listen. You’d have to be in a specific mood for this type of music. Cool instrumentals but lyrics can be… odd?

The Village Green Preservation Society

The Kinks

4/5

Light hearted and whimsical, it was a fun listen! The songs in this album work together to make an enjoyable track, though I wouldn’t add most of these songs independently to a playlist since it’s such a different style.

Transformer

Lou Reed

3/5

Cozy album to wind down. Nothing particularly exciting, but now I know what “glam rock” is.

Meat Is Murder

The Smiths

1/5

British music for sad boys. Not my cup of tea (zing)

Playing With Fire

Spacemen 3

2/5

Good for ambience, studying, or drugs.

Second Toughest In The Infants

Underworld

3/5

I’m not a techno listener but this has solid layers of sounds and I appreciate the production. Would be a good listen while gaming.

Bryter Layter

Nick Drake

1/5

I hate giving this 1 star but I just wasn’t interested at all.

Vol. 4

Black Sabbath

5/5

Classic metal, Black Sabbath is always a good listen. This album shreds.

Ready To Die

The Notorious B.I.G.

4/5

Classic hip-hop album showing all aspects of the gangster lifestyle. Interludes/skits drag just a bit too long.

Thriller

Michael Jackson

5/5

You don’t need my review to know this album is an all-timer.

Kenza

Khaled

2/5

Good beats, I’m a dumb American who only likes English music though.

Vauxhall And I

Morrissey

3/5

Good mix of upbeat and melancholy.

It's Too Late to Stop Now

Van Morrison

3/5

Enjoyably album and I’m sure it was a hell of a show. Some of the songs dragged a little much for us listeners at home.

At Fillmore East

The Allman Brothers Band

3/5

Decent jam album.

Beyond Skin

Nitin Sawhney

2/5

Complex blend of genres that ultimately fell flat for me.

Caetano Veloso

2/5

The Yes Album

Yes

3/5

A Seat at the Table

Solange

2/5

Queen Of Denmark

John Grant

4/5

Can be a little edgy at times, but there’s some good tracks. Classic indie vibe.

The Band

4/5

Great blend of classic genres, and their songs are full of lyrical content.

Jagged Little Pill

Alanis Morissette

4/5

A caricature of 90s music, in a good way.

Surf's Up

The Beach Boys

4/5

Existential, ethereal, haunting.

This Year's Model

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

3/5

Good rock album, I’m sure it was influential but I’m not educated enough to see how.

Low

David Bowie

3/5

Very different halves to this album, both with their strengths.

Atomizer

Big Black

3/5

Noisy but has some decent beats. Unique.

Smokers Delight

Nightmares On Wax

4/5

Great album for productivity. Interesting sounds and upbeat. I was surprised to enjoy it this much.

Porcupine

Echo And The Bunnymen

2/5

More melancholy Brit pop

Hotel California

Eagles

Smooth but couldn’t catch a lot of the lyrics.

Franz Ferdinand

4/5

Fun album.

The ArchAndroid

Janelle Monáe

3/5

Good energy, solid production, but not something I’ll come back to.

Vulnicura

Björk

1/5

I guess I can appreciate what Bjork did here. But I didn’t like it at all. 1.5

The Blueprint

JAY Z

3/5

Enjoyable but overstays its welcome.

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Smooth and energetic, great soul.

Time Out

The Dave Brubeck Quartet

5/5

Go-to album for jazz. Just perfect.

Beatles

5/5

Fun and classic. Nothing quite like the Beatles.

Out of Step

Angry album that I feel a little too old for.

Coldplay is Coldplay, easy listening with some classic tracks.

Central Reservation

Beth Orton
