Paranoid

Black Sabbath

5/5

Back In Black

AC/DC

5/5

When I was in middle school my mom's boyfriend asked me to download this for him on Kazaa but I don't remember ever doing it. 100s of tiny sins such as these litter my life, although that guy was evil.

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness

The Smashing Pumpkins

5/5

uh, holy shit

Beggars Banquet

The Rolling Stones

4/5

I think it's just that "rock n roll piano" is not my thing I could see myself giving this the full 5 with more context or history under my belt, but in this moment and with the sole rubric being "how much I enjoyed listening to it," it's a 4

Ready To Die

The Notorious B.I.G.

5/5

certainly not a dance record, and a lot of the beats are pretty straightforward, but the creativity is crazy

At Mister Kelly's

Sarah Vaughan

5/5

oh wow. isn't music amazing? aren't people just great?

Wonderful Rainbow

Lightning Bolt

5/5

I listened to this on a DAP that allowed me to push the volume until my headphones were literally (literally!) vibrating

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

5/5

I've been trying to set aside my ego and pride, which have no purpose or value, and reexamine certain things I married myself to an opinion of when I was much younger than I am now. Trying to correct a bad personality, more or less. This record was on that list even before I started doing the album a day thing here. So, acknowledging that I'm not saying anything brilliant or original here: one man can change the world!!!

Oracular Spectacular

MGMT

3/5

The three big hits are still incredible, especially if you can remove yourself from what I assume is the nearly universal experience of having heard the songs one million times before. The rest of the album doesn't speak to me as much even though I couldn't shake the feeling that it *should* because there's a lot of music in the same neighborhood as this that I have really loved. I believe my rating is the best numerical approximation of the sum of these feelings

Odessey And Oracle

The Zombies

4/5

Margot Tenenbaum type shit

Mask

Bauhaus

3/5

Damaged

Black Flag

5/5

Can't Buy A Thrill

Steely Dan

4/5

The Pleasure Principle

Gary Numan

5/5

can you hear the future coming?

Come Find Yourself

Fun Lovin' Criminals

2/5

for a couple of songs I was tending toward "not that bad" but you know, it's just smoothed edges, creatively devoid. easy to pick the hit out of a line up, and QT was right to do what he did to them

Deloused in the Comatorium

The Mars Volta

5/5

helped me solidify how I want to think about ratings during this project

Heroes

David Bowie

4/5

with an open heart and an open mind this nearly got a 5. the attitude adjustment is ongoing.

Clube Da Esquina

Milton Nascimento

5/5

I just kept saying "wow" I think I would never have listened to this album if not for this project, this experience is just what I am chasing. Part of it anyway

Definitely Maybe

Oasis

3/5

Aladdin Sane

David Bowie

4/5

listen, nobody, if I'm being true to my heart this was a 3 experience. but I so badly *want* it to have been a 4. and in a way, doesn't that make a 4 *more* true to my heart? please don't let me be so uncool that I don't like bowie. one of these is going to hit for me

Club Classics Vol. One

Soul II Soul

4/5

The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway

Genesis

5/5

rock n roll came a long way in 10 years man if one element is stumbling just change your focus. every time I heard a weak lyric I'd just start listening to Phil Collins drumming his heart and brains out

Pearl

Janis Joplin

5/5

hey man. what the fuck.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Beatles

5/5

Tapestry

Carole King

5/5

Idlewild

Everything But The Girl
