Off The Wall

Michael Jackson

3/5

The opening song goes HARD, rest is pretty groovy. I love the basslines. Fav song is ‘Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough’.

Thriller

Michael Jackson

3/5

Loads of iconic songs, second half is better than the first. I prefer ‘Bad’, but Michael’s vocals are brilliant in this album. Fav song is ‘Billie Jean’.

Nebraska

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

The title song is SO PRETTY. This album is so Zach Bryan coded with all the harmonica. “Everything dies baby, that’s a fact but maybe everything that dies someday comes back” PERIOD. I love that line. Such a beautiful album overall. Fav song is ‘Atlantic City’.

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Second half of the album isn’t as good as the first half. Fav song is ‘Wild Horses’.

Raising Hell

Run-D.M.C.

3/5

Holy groovy. I love 90s rap. I really like the guitar in the title song. Fav song is ‘My Adidas’.

Moon Safari

Air

2/5

Very funky album. Really pretty instrumentals but also really hot songs. Fav song is ‘Sexy Boy’.

Pornography

The Cure

5/5

Very short album. Very gothic, very dark and mysterious. Similar to She Wants Revenge or Siouxsie and the Banshees. Fav song is ‘Siamese Twins’.

Bryter Layter

Nick Drake

2/5

Very cute album. I prefer his folky stuff to his more jazzy stuff. Aoibhe reckons the album sounds like something from the ‘Adventure Time’ soundtrack. Fav song is ‘One of These Things First’.

Back At The Chicken Shack

Jimmy Smith

2/5

Very full of life. I prefer the songs with less organ i think. Fav song is ‘Back At The Chicken Shack’.

Copper Blue

Sugar

4/5

Very fuzzy/hazy, dirty basslines. I LOVE the guitar solo in ‘A Good Idea’. Very summery album. Fav song is ‘Man on the Moon’.

Horses

Patti Smith

4/5

I read Patti Smith’s book, but I hadn’t listened to much of her work, so I’m excited. Holy angst. Very groovy, yet also very punky. The second song has a reggae vibe? I don’t like the spoken word song so much. Fav song is ‘Redondo Beach’.

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

4/5

Very on theme for today. A load of absolute classics. Fav song is ‘Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)’.

Odelay

Beck

3/5

I only knew ‘Loser’ before now, so excited to listen to a new album from Beck! Second song is bluesy with rap? Lots of hiphop influences. Fav song is ‘Hotwax’.

Chore of Enchantment

Giant Sand

1/5

Very dark and grimy. EXTREMELY long album. I’m kinda scared of these songs… Fav song is ‘(Well) Dusted’.

Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables

Dead Kennedys

3/5

Very OG punk. Sounds exactly like Sex Pistols to me… I like the bass in the third song. Very political? Nearly every song sounds the exact same bro. Fav song is ‘Let’s Lynch The Landlord’.
