1/5

Luckily I had to listen to this on YouTube so I got to hear some Liberty Mutual commercials in between this cacophony.

Revolver

Beatles

5/5

Starting with a banger. Just waiting until I can lock in those 5-stars.

Back To Black

Amy Winehouse

5/5

This album has a gravitational force. There is an Amy Winehouse shaped hole in the universe.

I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got

Sinead O'Connor

2/5

Californication

Red Hot Chili Peppers

3/5

Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots

The Flaming Lips

4/5

Beautifully flowing and complete piece of art. This album motivates me to try to shed my Playlist Listening and go out of my way to listen to full albums.

Time Out

The Dave Brubeck Quartet

4/5

Music Has The Right To Children

Boards of Canada

1/5

I hate this. It certainly isn't for me and I hope I never meet the person it is for. This challenged my commitment to the entire project.

World Clique

Deee-Lite

3/5

A Love Supreme

John Coltrane

3/5

Viva Hate

Morrissey

4/5

Morrissey sure is the way he is but I still like listening to his songs despite it.

Disintegration

The Cure

3/5

The latter half of the album feels like a 25 minute outro. The first half is absolutely brilliant.

Head Hunters

Herbie Hancock

3/5

I initially thought this could work its way into my regular rotation for work music, but the second half of the record gets pretty hectic. I got something out of this album but I don't see myself listening to again anytime soon.

Pink Moon

Nick Drake

5/5

This used to be one of my favorite albums. It is now once again one of my favorite albums.

Eliminator

ZZ Top

2/5

I’ve always thought of ZZ Top as Diet AC/DC. They represent a type of rock that I just don’t get anything out of.

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

4/5

Music in Exile

Songhoy Blues

5/5

A second pass through really solidified this for me. The guitar riffs alone made this standout in a big way. I absolutely loved this album.

Tank Battles

Dagmar Krause

Youth And Young Manhood

Kings of Leon

5/5

What an incredible album. It rips from start to finish. It's a shame that their corners got sanded down after this because the roughness of their sound is what really catapults this one into the stratosphere.

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

Yep, that’s Bob Dylan alright. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Chelsea Girl

Sigur Rós

2/5

Very dreamy. Too dreamy.

Vanishing Point

Primal Scream

2/5

I didn’t hate this nearly as much as I thought I would. I actually really enjoyed a good portion of it, but there’s no chance I’ll ever voluntarily listen to this album in its entirety ever again because of the other portion.

Ocean Rain

Echo And The Bunnymen

3/5

Out Of The Blue

Electric Light Orchestra

5/5

I knew this album was good but damn. Easy 5 stars.

The Marshall Mathers LP

Eminem

4/5

Immigrés

Youssou N'Dour

3/5

Rid Of Me

PJ Harvey

4/5

I would have been so into this in the 90’s, had I known it existed. Weighty and unpolished, just how I like it. The weirdness really hits when she goes for it. Probably as close as an album could get to 5 stars for me before it gets the honor.

Document

R.E.M.

4/5

It's Too Late to Stop Now

Van Morrison

3/5

Love Van but I can't picture myself listening to this over his studio albums.

The Stranger

Billy Joel

4/5

Dire Straits

3/5

I’m a fan of the Dire Straits but this album never really did anything for me. It’s pretty one-note.
