I never gave this entire album a listen before, but it starts off with a bang with No Action. Pump it up and Little triggers are also highlights. This album hits from the first song and just keeps rolling, most songs are 3 min or less and the pace just gives you a down hill feeling from the jump, there's an excitement and an energy to this whole album, it's a lot of fun. The pop punk vibe is really apparent and I for one really enjoy it.
Totally new to Peter Gabriel, I obviously know some songs, including the finale on this one In Your Eyes, but otherwise I have not gone out of my way to listen to this man. This album feels the most 80s, synths and all. Red Rain, Mercy Street and In Your Eyes are standouts. This is probably not something I would come back to often, but it really flows from start to finish and there are some good bits in there, I do like the accompanying singers especially on Don't Give Up (Kate Bush).
This album has all the ingredients of something I should fall for immediately, there is something resembling the La’s in sound mixed with soft 60s Britpop. But after multiple listens, it isn't grabbing me like it should. The tracks tend to meld together into one continuous, low-key daydream that, while not bad, doesn't leave a mark. 'Made of Stone' was a standout, but aside from that track, I don't see myself returning to the full album often. I feel bad that I’m just not getting the hype.
I've heard 'Hurt' plenty of times, but I’d never sat down with the rest of this record. I think I enjoyed it so much simply because I know the songs; hearing Johnny Cash’s version of them is interesting to a point. It feels like a bit of a shortcut to a good album, but his voice adds a weight to the lyrics that justifies the praise. 'Personal Jesus' and 'In My Life' are standouts, there are some songs I would never picture him singing, but once you hear it, it just works. I will certainly be coming back to this one
Roundabout. That's it. What an epic 8 plus minute journey, some of the best bass playing around. One of the greatest rock songs of all time. The rest of the album is playing catch-up. It's one of the strongest side 1 song 1s of all time and the album may suffer from it, nothing really gets you back to that level of energy. 'We Have Heaven' has it's moments, 'Long Distance Runaround' is a standout, everything else just melts together in a fun sound that often feels experimental or half baked, but the vibes are good, you could set this in the background and just groove.
This album is my probably my favorite Kanye album. His debut has so much creativity and interesting ideas in it, the songs really don’t miss. ‘We Don’t Care’, ‘Last Call’, and everything in between this is Kanye at his finest.
Gave this album a couple serious listens. Outside of Paint It Black and Under My Thumb, it was not doing it for me. It’s got a good sound but nothing stands out. People often say Beatles or Stones, this album has me wondering why.
What a banger. This album I've never given the time of day to but I realized I've heard a lot of it before. 'So Far Away', 'Money for Nothing' and 'Walk of Life' is a stellar start to this album. The lyrics are a bit sad and meandering all wrapped in a easy listening blues rock and country package. What is not to enjoy.
My first 5/5 album. This is a straight masterpiece from top to bottom. It's how album should be, no fat, just 11 songs that don't miss. 'Five Years' has this slow build and the little repetitive chant that sucks you in, and once you're in, you're sticking around for the whole thing. 'Moonage Daydream', Suffragette City' are the big ones, but this is a no skip album at it's finest and the one Bowie album I will always go back to. You'll come away belting 'It Ain't Easy'.
Honestly couldn’t get through this glam rock ac/dc sounding stuff. Maybe I’ll give it another go eventually but this was just not it for me.
I know ELO. But I’ve never ever listened to them. What a sound, like some kind of rock and roll ABBA, mixed with I don’t know what else, The Who? It’s upbeat it’s fun, there’s cowbell and all sorts of other sounds. ‘Mr. Blue Sky’ checks all the boxes. Quite the experience. I think I like it?
These guys have a one armed drummer! I gave this a real listen. I didn’t hate it. I can see how these guys could be enjoyable. I mean it sounds fun the whole way through and I know the hits. In the end this hair metal rock just is not my jam. It all feels a little surface level.
I love Queen. This album is one I’ve never listened to before. It has 11 songs and that’s 11 songs I’ve never heard, which I’m actually surprised by, I thought I was a decent Queen fan. The only thing I actually recognize is the album cover.
The first half is very down to earth, some good songwriting, with a sound that is their own big rock sound but also simultaneously feels very intimate. ‘Father to Son’ particularly. The second half is big, fantastical and more along the lines of the Queen you know, bigger guitar, operatic singing, it’s good and even weird but I may prefer the first half more. There are some real good nuggets in this album.
Goat album. They really find their sound with this one. This album takes it up another level. Whole Lotta Love, The Lemon Song, Heart Breaker, Ramble On. This album doesn’t miss. It’s hard to choose your favorite Zeppelin album but this is close to peak zeppelin for me.
I recognize the first song because it’s sampled on a great Lupe Fiasco track. Aptly singing daydream this album announces exactly what you’re in for. This is a great background album, cool beats and sounds and I can just set it and forget it and go about my day, this is a nice one to look out the window and stare of into space and listen to as the music drones on and lyrics loop. Not much happens but I guess that’s ok. The only downside is I can’t remember a thing I heard, nothing stands out.
Search and Destroy rules. I haven’t really listened to the stooges much. But the sound is pretty good, gritty. Everything else on the album kind of sounds like a worse version of Search and Destroy. Some songs are fun and I know this sound is pretty formative for bands that came after, but It’s not blowing me away.
What is this? Completely not my style of music. Track one has its moments but doesn’t go anywhere and some of these songs are flat out bad.
Can I kick it? I know of them but I’ve never really listened to A Tribe Called Quest. You can really hear how formative this album was for so many artists that came after it. I’m not a huge hip hop fan but I do get into certain albums and artists. This album feels like one I could come back to. I love the little intros between each song to set up the vibe. ‘I Left My Wallet in El Segundo’, ‘Bonita Applebum’, and ‘Footprints’ are standouts for sure. The beats, the lyrics, the production it’s all so well done.
Solid album, it starts off so strong. I know they’re popular but this feels like very mediocre Brit pop rock. Maybe I need to give it more time but it didn’t hit for me.
This is new to me. Ace of Spades is a great one and everything else kind of just sounds like that for the rest of the album. They sound great live. I liked Iron Horse because it sounded a little different. I didn’t know Motörhead had a song called Motörhead, has any other band done that? This is very rock and roll, loud and fast and it’s not really my thing. There’s probably a time and a place for it but today wasn’t it.
The King of Pop proves it with this one. The precursor to Thriller. The album kicks off with two bangers and away we go. A real good dance album I would say, super upbeat and the vocals shine through. MJ is not a super favorite of mine but of course I know all the hits, and really this genre of music isn’t something I’d listen to often. I might put it on if I had company over. I love the album art. All in all this is a solid record but certainly not something I’d return to.
How have I already gotten two Led Zeppelin albums. LZ4 is obviously iconic, with their greatest song of all time. It’s hard to rank their albums for me. But this is a very close to perfect album. With ‘Black Dog’, ‘Stairway to Heaven’, ‘Misty Mountain Hop’, and ‘Going to California’. There are zero misses on this album.
I cannot believe how many good songs are on this album, half covers which I think is part of the charm. What a fun sound, both stealing from R&B and soul and rock all at the same time. They equally sound like Elvis and themselves, just some good ol' dad rock, I don't think anyone comes close to CCR in that regard. John Fogerty crushed it here.
Elvis, this voice its unbelievable. What a great group of songs, there's a little bit of everything in there. I thought this was going to be live from the album art. The band and backup singers sounds great. Elvis really shines through, this is the first full Elvis album I've ever listened to and I have to say, I see why everyone went nuts for him. Suspicious minds is amazing.
What a weird album made only weirder that there are maybe 4 version of it? This is so far away from any genre I like. It’s. Ok.
I wish I knew more Spanish. This album rocks. It reminds me a lot of the Once Upon a Time In Mexico soundtrack, they have the best song on that. Loved ‘Bongo Bongo’ and few others. I think this is between a 3 and 4 for me but I might lean 4. Not that I’d listen super often but it just rocks.
A good Christmas album. So it’s obviously only played one month a year. Kind of makes it middle of the road for me.
Solid album, it starts off so strong. I know they’re popular but this feels like very mediocre Brit pop rock. Maybe I need to give it more time but it didn’t hit for me.
Really doesn't hold a candle to Ziggy Stardust even with the hits on here. 'Young Americans' and 'Fame'. This is supposed to be his take on Soul? It's funny there so much Beatles on here, between some of the lyrics and the 'Across the Universe' cover (which doesn't quite land for me), not sure I love it but Bowie is Bowie. Really solid album, just probably wouldn't see myself listening to this as much as Ziggy really.
This is some weird stuff. 'Do the Strand' sounded ok but you've lost me by 'The Bogus Man'. Really just something that is from a time and place and I think maybe should just stay there.
Big one. Of all the Beatles I think I have the hardest time getting into John's solo stuff. 'Imagine' comes out firing, one of the greatest songs of all time, and may make you forget about the rest of the songs on the album.
The does album grow on you for sure, 'Gimme Some Truth' is catchy, 'Crippled Inside' and 'Jealous Guy' round out a strong first 3 songs, and the album flows from there. I really like it's got some country bluegrass feel to some of the songs, some singer songwriter pieces, 'Gimme Some Truth' leading into the piano of 'Oh My Love' really feels good too. 'Oh Yoko!' sends us out and honestly it's a jam. This is as strong an album as can be for John without Paul, George, and Ringo.
Quite a weird album, sounds like it should be the soundtrack for The Nightmare Before Christmas. Unique sound and a unique voice. Couldn’t get into this one.
I see this as just a warmup for Back to Black. The sounds are there and voice and lyrics all work but it just lacks the oomph some how. Enjoyable sound but knowing there’s something better around the corner, this doesn’t land as well, it lacks the same attitude.
This album does show it's age a little, a lot of violence and repetitive themes, but when it works, it really really really works. Is Biggie maybe the greatest to ever do it? I kind of think so. There are some big bright spots on this album. 'Juicy' and 'Big Poppa' will always stand the test of time I think. I love the beginning lyrics of 'Suicidal Thoughts'. The album is long, but has so much to offer. Biggie's flow and rhymes are often times unbelievably good. Like with other long albums I think this suffers from some lulls and some repetition, I don't love most of the skits and Puffy sucks. Despite all of that, this is a classic and pretty much rocks the whole way through, the highs really erase any of the lows for me.
It's crazy he plays Mojo Working twice, and honestly he could have played it a third time. 'I've Got My Mojo Working - Pt. 2' easily is the best thing on this album. The rest of the album feels like some standard blues, certainly formative for a lot of artists to come after him, Muddy Waters is a legend. I will say the album feels a little one note, it helps that it's live it makes it a bit more interesting to me, but I wouldn't say I was blown away by this one. That being said it is some undeniably good music.
I haven’t listened to this album in maybe 20 years which is crazy to think. I know this is a definitive Velvet Underground album, but I think it’s just ok. The title track is excellent and I love ‘Here She Comes Now’. But that really is about it. This album is ok, I think it really suffers from being less music and more art.
I don't know about this one. I'm all for singer songwriters, I like the harp sound I think she has an interesting voice. Something is keeping from getting into this one. It feels very one dimensional, the songs all blur. It meanders along with no real direction. Could it be because it's only 5 really long songs? Possibly. It's interesting I guess, but no, just no.
Dolly is so good, this was a little middle of the road for me. Easy listening, some great tunes but not anything that’s going to stick with me for too long. Just a solid country style album.
First jazz album I’ve been given. My jazz listening has been super limited. I always enjoy it when I give it time but it’s really not something that sticks with me as much. Probably not a big relisten album for me. The first real Charlie Byrd I’ve knowingly listened to too. I do like the samba jazz mix.
This album feels very standard. Kind of vanilla country. I think everyone will agree Emmylou the standout here. Some decent songs on here. Nothing mind blowing. Love Hurts is good hard to not have the Nazareth version in your head though.
A plodding dark new wave rock sound. Some of it sticks with me but mostly feels too dark and slow, you have to be in the right mindset for it. Not something I would typically find myself saying but I think I prefer their pop sound more. There’s hints of that sound here and there throughout the album, and it’s better for it.
A perfect album. Iconic album art. Amazing music from start to finish.
My second Yes album. I have to say I like this one too, less bass crazy although there are some moments. But a bit more acoustic guitar featured which I like. And ‘I’ve Seen All Good People’ and ‘Your Move’ is so good.
Well we all know the song that gives this album a name. Going in I was not sure about the rest of the tracks though. I was expecting nothing but disco in that vein. But this was a pleasant surprise. ‘Somebody Loves Me’ is a beautiful ballad, totally fits with everything else but what a great surprise. The rest of the songs give more context to ‘We Are Family’, and I might enjoy it more now than I ever did. This is a fun album, if I had company over I’d definitely put this in the rotation.
If not a little straightforward and simple in both lyrics and sound at time, it’s probably Bruce’s best album since Born In The USA. As a Bruce fan I equate a lot of these songs to how they sound when heard live, which has helped them take on a bit more life. The title track is an incredible song, others like ‘Lonesome Day’, ‘Waiting On A Sunny Day’, ‘Mary’s Place’, and ‘My City of Ruins’ are quite good. Those songs stick out still. This album was important for the time which I imagine is why it finds itself on this list. The album is probably 5 songs too long.
Before I dig in you really have to appreciate the album art. It’s pretty iconic and fun. Honestly it may set the tone for the album itself. It’s a stellar offering and maybe one of Paul’s best as a solo artist, it’s fun upbeat and there are some great songs on here. I find myself always wanting to compare former Beatles to the Beatles and that’s really unfair because the Beatles are greater than the sum of their parts. That being said this is a great album I enjoyed listening, I may revisit if I’m ever in the mood for some Paul, but that’s probably not often. I love ‘Let Me Roll It’.
Didn’t think I’d know any of the songs off of this one. ‘Alright’ rocks and of course I’ve heard it all over the place. This album has a fun sound, that kind of goes all over the place, talk about a musical smorgasbord. I hear roots in the Rolling Stones maybe, the chipmunks, there's organs, I hear Bob Dylan, I hear Oasis, It feels like it could influence Jack White and the Arctic Monkeys. It seems like each song takes you in a completely new direction and honestly they pull it off wonderfully. It also reminds me of The La's in some ways. Overall a cool sound and fun album. Nothing is sticking with me completely but this is one I could see myself coming back to.
I mean it's the Beatles right? Iconic everything. This is not my favorite album of theirs or sound really, for me everything kicks in from Rubber Soul on. But we know every single song they put out is at least a 3/5 if not higher. I can't believe this is the first Beatles album I've gotten. All I can hear before even starting my listen is that chord kicking off 'Hard Days Night'. I'll repeat myself this is not my favorite of theirs, 'If I Fell', 'I Should Have Known Better', 'Can't Buy Me Love' are all seriously amazing songs.
All time album. Easy 5/5. This is Amy at her best. I listened to her debut on this list as well and it doesn’t hold a candle to this one. A perfect sound start to finish. The title track is my favorite, but there are so many gems on here.
What an album. The jazz and funk beats, Thundercat, the lyrics and flow. It all meshes together into something really special. I love the Radiohead sound on ‘How Much a Dollar Cost’. A lot of other songs really hit as well. Even the interludes are great.
This will always just remind me of The Royal Tenenbaums. ‘These Days’ is such an amazing song. ‘The Fairest Season’ is a great track one as well. I wonder if Nico is the key to me liking The Velvet Underground songs I do or if it’s the other way around. There’s some Dylan and Jackson Browne on here too? Makes sense that Browne does a great version of ‘These Days’. Not a perfect album by any means but there are a few standouts. Her voice is so distinctive and works in places and not in others. Some songs drag, I had to really force myself to stay in it. The guitar forward songs are much better I think. A lot of it could have worked better without the strings and flute, maybe?
This album is huge, and by that I mean long. Not sure I like the sound of it all together, and it all feels disconnected and all over the place. Like any 20 song album I always feel like you could cut it close to 10 and be better off, it's like multiple albums layered together. I don't know if I love it, and there's a huge diversity in the songs. I do think from time to time it clicks but it may be few and far between, and there's a lot of rough stuff in the between. That all being said, the times it clicks sounds like some of the best we've come to expect from Fleetwood Mac.
Respect. What else do I have to say? Her voice is amazing. ‘Save Me’ rocks. Ending on ‘A Change is Gonna Come’. Hard to beat that.
This album came out on my birthday, how cool. A funky Simon and Garfunkel sound, ‘Save the Life of My Child’, has some Dylan in it with some weird sounds. Clearly they’re going for something experimental here and I don’t hate it. I think ‘America’ is probably the best thing on this album, just all around epic. This is a fun, tight (only 30 min.) album, I find I typically like those the best. Although this could be too short? Some good songs with some interesting interludes. Im a fan.
I thought the last album I had was short. This is 4 songs! 4 funky songs, that kicks off in a real nice groove. Totally something I could put on in the background while I work. Or drive around to. Real cool sound I have to say. Reminds me of things I used to listen to in my friend’s car way back when. This is the reason I do this, I never would have listened to this album otherwise. This is one I’ll come back to when I’m in the right mood.
Back to back 4 song albums. I’m seeing a trend. The funky meandering tunes really take you on a journey that doesn’t quite feel of this time or place. I enjoyed it for sure but definitely for me more of a thing I’d put on in the background and vibe to more than actively listen. The 19 minute finale was a real joy.
Epic album. 10/10. I love her debut album but I think 21 might be Adele at her absolute best. Her voice, the music, the lyrics, it’s all there for 12 songs straight.
The hits just keep coming, I've been on a quite a streak with music from this list lately. Just having 'My My, Hey Hey' bookend this album is enough for me, a sandwich is only as good as it's bread after all. The fillings are just as good, and having a part acoustic part electric thing going on, I really love it all. I was lucky to see Neil live not long ago and got treated to a few of these gems.

First time listening to this and really the first time listening to Common. I like it, has sort of a Black Star or Q Tip feel to it in some ways. It’s not surprise to see Mos Def feat. I was just reading about everyone who contributes to this album and it all makes sense you have some very talented people working on the music. The lyrics themselves aren’t really connecting for me so far. But the soul, jazz, beats, and the music is a great vibe. This album is so long, I don’t know why artists continue to do this. You’re inevitably going to have things on the album that just should have been cut. Trim the fat give me the good stuff. All in all this is enjoyable, solid.
Hey it's Chef. Hot Buttered Soul may be the best album name I've ever heard. The music is in fact buttery. Just 4 songs, I can't believe how many albums I've listened to that are only 4 songs long. The songs really grow, there's a lot of space to each one, they're lengthy, and somehow it works better. Isaac Hayes' voice is really something else, I love the instrumental backing to each song. By the Time I Get to Phoenix really ends this one on a high note.
There’s a very small window of country music I enjoy so this is not really jumping out at me but it is a fun little country album, who doesn’t love a little honky tonk? There’s a little yodely bit in there during ‘I’ll Be Your Fool’ that’s great. It’s more pop country to me than country rock but what do I know. Songs feel fun without much substance, or maybe the style is making me feel that way.
I was just listening to this yesterday unprompted. From the moment ‘Everything In Its Right Place’ kicks off, this album takes you on a ride. Crazy to think they got from The Bends to here with one album in between. I’ll always respect Radiohead for seemingly constantly evolving.
Just an absolute banger. Dylan goes electric. Track one is maybe his greatest work. Not my all time favorite Dylan album but it’s close. Bobs lyrics are impeccable. The sounds of is album is fun, great to hear a him evolving away from straight folk. This guy was on a tear in the 60s, just non stop top tier music and songwriting, he basically put out an album a year and they were all top tier. This pairs nicely with the other 1965 album “Bringing It All Back Home” too. Pretty incredible.
The album art alone deserves a 10. This album is funky and fun. It’s got some great hip hop and soul roots, what a combo. The music feels dated but I’m sure at the time it was not, and there are still some highlights throughout. This album goes all over the map from rap or hip hop to soul and even gets a bit gospel, pretty awesome to experience. Finally, ‘The Message’ is iconic of course.
Really not sure what to make of this whole thing. I don’t know what I was expecting but it wasn’t this. Very moody, very grungy, gritty, and it’s grown on me. The atmosphere! I got sucked in when ‘Hell is Around the Corner’ kicked on, it samples a similar bit of music to Portishead. Which weirdly also is reminding me of Lupe Fiascos ‘Daydreamin’ which puts it in good company. The mix of Tricky and Martina Topley-Bird is really working on this album, it’s enthralling.
I have never really listened to a full Leonard Cohen album but have heard a song here and there. This feels like a dark Bob Dylan and it’s pretty darn good.
With about 30 songs the White Album suffers from a bit of bloat. Certainly not my favorite of The Beatles but can’t argue with how iconic it is. And with this length there are plenty of amazing songs too, ‘As My Guitar Gently Weeps’, ‘Helter Skelter’, ‘Back In The USSR’, ‘Revolution’, ‘Birthday’, this may be the heaviest the Beatles ever sounded.
A very vibey experimental rap album, kind of cool in places, when it works it really works. I like the lofi feel to it all.
Excellent album, one of my absolute favorites. Early Kings of Leon is just so good. What a fun rocking album, I love the garbled up lyrics and dirty guitar sound, it all works well. Aha Shake is a really good stepping stone to Only by the Night, which is their all time greatest effort. I may be rockin' to KoL for the rest of the day now.
What a surprise this album is, there's so many influences across the album, it seemingly moves through genres at will. The major standout is k.d.'s voice, otherwise you kind of go on a meandering blurry journey through all these songs and at the end I couldn't tell you what is what but that it all sounded pretty darn good. It feels like I'm at some piano bar listening to a top tier live performance lounging around drinking cocktails. I'd put this album right down the middle for that reason, there's not single standout for me but the 10 song journey was pretty nice.
A decent U2 album, I understand after doing a little reading this was the start of their new sound post Joshua Tree and Rattle and Hum. It's got some grit to it, and some fun parts, I definitely enjoyed this listen but wouldn't say its my favorite from the band. There's some gems, 'One' is certainly an all time great song. I have never loved U2, but Joshua Tree will always be the one for me. This falls well short of that.
10 out of 10. The songwriting on this is unmatched and you see his influence in everything that comes after Either Or. Elliot Smith is a genius, he has this aura about him, this troubled artist who writes so so well. I love it, this album has only grown and grown on me. Long live sad music.
This is just pure METAL. Hangar 18 alone makes this album worth listening to. The guitar in every song is absolutely nuts. I don't listen to Metal ever really, but I am well aware of some of these songs and Megadeath. I would say as far as a Metal album goes, this is pretty great. Appropriately face melting.
I don’t think I’ve ever given a 1 before. But this might earn it. Maybe I need more background but what about this album is so important it made it into this list? I guess it’s a rap opera which is a great concept and I think maybe others have executed this way better? Anyways the flow is just not there. I can’t tell if this is a joke or what. I’m not getting it. Somehow I've heard one of these songs, and maybe this saves the whole album? 'Fit But You Know It' is actually decent as is 'Dry Your Eyes'. This album really might have been saved at the back end, you get rewarded for sticking with it.
This album just sort of blended into the background for me on my listen. It felt like something I should really dig but didn’t quite get me there. Maybe I’ll go back to it someday.
Love me some Ella but I’m not doing a 3 hour album. Just not doing it. I’ll pick 10 songs and listen. Is this really the best Ella has to offer some 6 disc compilation album? I refuse to believe it. I’m somewhat annoyed by this whole exercise. Track 4 ‘Let’s Call the Whole Thing Off’ I agree.
Incredible album art. I hope the music lives up to it. The jazz was good. I have not listened to enough jazz to really know good from great to be honest, but I enjoyed the whole album front to back. I would listen again if I was looking for some jazz I suppose.
Eh. Not sure what I'm supposed to feel with this one. It's ok. Nothing is like a big standout I can't even really tell what type of music they're trying to make here if I'm being perfectly honest. "Sister was not successful at the time of its release"... hmmm.... I tend to agree. Granted the issue here could be on me, maybe if I started from the beginning of Sonic Youths records this one would make more sense, but jumping right into this journey, it's not landing.
Metal is just not my scene, I love rock, I love the guitar here, it's just everything else I can't really get across the gap. It's nice in small doses and I have heard some Pantera I like but yea I dunno. That being said 'Walk' pretty much rules.
My second favorite Green Day album. Nothing tops Dookie for me. This is like Green Day lite, and it's good don't get me wrong, its a bit more pop-y and I still enjoy the majority of the songs on this. I mean 'Jesus of Suburbia' has no business working as a 12 min epic but it does, the first 4 songs on this album are absolute perfection. This album could probably shave 3 songs off and be even tighter and better. Again it's good but can almost feel corny at points. Only further proven by the fact that this album led to a tony award winning musical. It's amazing how these musical responses to the Bush era have only gotten more relevant today.
'Once In a Lifetime' is a standout. The rest of the album is kind of noise to me, maybe not in the right headspace for it today but it feels fairly experimental but most of it doesn't land for me.
You're telling me 'War Pigs', 'Paranoid' and 'Iron Man' are all on the same album? Ok this rocks. Not to mention this album cover is all time.
I am on a heavy rock kick right now, keep it coming I guess. I really thought this would be heavier, I think I've only listened to a handful of Iron Maiden before this. This is pretty darn good though, with a heavy dose of guitar of course.
