Follow The Leader

5/5

Classic. No skips. Zero apologies. Caught myself singing the entire thing at work like I was headlining Ozzfest 1999 and my coworkers were just unwilling VIPs. Did they ask for it? No. Did they receive it? Absolutely. This album is: Aggressively nostalgic Emotionally unhinged in the best way Scientifically proven to improve head nodding by 300% If you hear someone softly whispering “boom na da noom na na nema…” in the break room — mind your business. I am not sorry. I will not be quiet. HR can simply Follow the Leader.

Definitely an experimental album. started a bit slow. One observation was lack of experience with production but was a decent album.

Freak Out!

The Mothers Of Invention

4/5

This album made me feel like I’m stuck in an elevator while having a bad trip of LSD. Production is top tier, a bit on the weird side but a good listen. The pace is a bit slow at first but it just works. Oldie but goodie

I like it. If it came on the radio, I wouldn’t change it. If I’m in the mood for “I own at least one flannel and miss the 90s,” I’d throw it on intentionally.

Korn

5/5

Jazz Samba

Stan Getz

4/5

Yesterday: “ARE YOU OKAY???” Today: “hm… yes… life is… breezy…” Jazz Samba feels like: You just committed tax fraud but in a charming European way. It’s: Calm Warm Slightly smug Deeply vibey If Korn is drywall punching, Jazz Samba is gently adjusting cufflinks.

What's That Noise?

Coldcut

1/5

I normally love EDM. But this? This sounded like I got stinkface’d at WrestleMania 2001 and the ref just let it happen. I respect the audacity. I do not respect what it did to my ears.

Electric Prunes

The Electric Prunes

2/5

This sounded like someone describing a fun time instead of actually having one. It’s very: “Bro you had to be there.” No, I did not. I respect the 60s. I do not respect how long some of these songs felt.

I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got

Sinead O'Connor

1/5

This album feels like: “Let’s process our emotions in a healthy, quiet way.” And I’m over here like: “Do you have a distortion pedal? A snare? A controlled emotional spiral?” It’s intimate. It’s minimal. It’s emotionally mature. Meanwhile I’m spiritually standing in Guitar Center asking if it comes in Drop C and mild chaos. I respect the artistry. I acknowledge the vulnerability. But personally? I would rather listen to 20 Jazz Funk Greats by Throbbing Gristle which is neitehr jazz, fusion or jazz fusion

Mask

Bauhaus

1/5

Crocodiles

Echo And The Bunnymen

2/5

This album feels like it was recorded inside a fog machine. Not terrible. Not amazing. Just very committed to sounding like it owns at least three trench coats. Every track has that specific “mysterious 80s” energy where someone is definitely staring out a rainy window thinking deep thoughts… but nothing is actually happening. At some point I stopped recognizing where one song ended and the next began, but in a very polite, synth-adjacent way. 2/5 — not offensive, just aggressively era-appropriate. It didn’t bite. It gently… hovered.

Saying that any further endeavors of technical skill and imagination were pointless, experts at the Smithsonian Institution reportedly questioned Monday why new art was still being produced after the pinnacle of aesthetic and creative potential was reached in 1990 with Megadeth’s fourth studio album, Rust In Peace. “As the unquestioned apex of the entire history of the creative arts, Rust In Peace is the finest and last necessary piece of human expression—but it’s almost as though current so-called artists are completely oblivious to Dave Mustaine’s blistering, transcendent guitar work on ‘Hangar 18,’” said Smithsonian curator of contemporary art Joanna Marsh, gesturing dismissively in the direction of a massive self-portrait by photorealist Chuck Close, completed in 2000. “It’s not just incredibly disrespectful to keep making art; in many ways, it’s actually quite sad. The deluded people churning out this worthless garbage just can’t seem to reconcile themselves to the fact that their pathetic little sculptures and films and novels and whatnot will always pale in comparison to the brilliantly inspired, heart-stopping tempo shift halfway through ‘Holy Wars… The Punishment Due.’” At press time, a spokesperson from the Centre Pompidou in Paris confirmed the museum’s plans to throw out the contents of an entire wing and leave a massive, pure white space where the track “Lucretia” will be played on loop at full volume.
