Ill Communication

Beastie Boys

3/5

Production goes absolutely silly. Maybe their best overall vibe of an album.

London Calling

The Clash

1/5

Decent lyrics and themes. Musically, incredibly annoying.

Dire Straits

3/5

Decent lyrics and themes. Musically, incredibly annoying.

The Band

2/5

Middling southern(?) rock that sounds alright. A couple of sorta nonsense songs. I’ve never really listened to the band recreationally and I’m not sure I will again.

Pornography

The Cure

5/5

This is what it sounds like when doves cook their ass off. This perfect album is driven by drums that vibrate an interdimensional membrane open just enough with every hit. Robert Smith and co peeped beyond the veil and it made them fucking sad.

Can't Buy A Thrill

Steely Dan

1/5

The Stooges

4/5

A pleasant surprise! I was not familiar with The stooges before this listen, but they have a new fan. A really great encapsulation of the time, and some very good rock and roll. I also super appreciate some of the pace changeups. It helps the album stay fresh throughout. Would recommend.

Younger Than Yesterday

The Byrds

2/5

Not bad. Not much to say about it, though.
