Nevermind by Nirvana

I despite Kurt Cobain so much and in turn hated on this album saying it was overrated. I always loved every individual track in the back of my head, and started getting back into it more recently. I absolutely love this record, and every song is just so good. This album has an undeniable impact on music. For what it made the music scene for the next decade is completely there. Are the angsty "get away" songs a little too repetitive? Yes, but the 3 of them all have individual things that make them awesome. No duds, great album.

Blue Lines by Massive Attack

First trip-hop album ever, and my expectations were completely exceeded. The record kicks off with an infectious bass groove that skews throughout the whole track. For the time this album is actually insane, at least a decade before it should've been. Every vocal part is incredibly enticing. The talent of every singer on here is incredibly chosen. The tracks are on the borderline of being too repetitive, but manage to mostly keep it different and engaging just before parts go stale. Each instrumental is so brain-tingling to me; the keyboard sounds Massive Attack achieves is just something else. The strings are emotional, the drums are tight, every song just flows and immerses you in a sensory chamber. If I had another critique it'd be the album cover. This rarely happens where my visual interpretation of music doesn't match the cover art, so it's a shame that it doesn't fit. The closing track is also beautifully chosen and written. Cool record miles ahead of its time.
