Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division

Central Reservation by Beth Orton

Tical by Method Man

Fun samples and sounds. Manages to sound both angular and full of flow. Achieves an ominous/dark vibe. Ultimately not my cup of tea but I respect it.

Diamond Life by Sade

So smooth, so easy listening, the percussion isn't the most obvious thing about this album but there are some really fun percussion moments, just an all around good time of an album to listen through.

Dirt by Alice In Chains

I can respect the musicality of this album but I find it uninteresting. It's not necessarily offensive to my ears but I will likely never return to it.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes

I found this to be pretty forgettable.

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash

War by U2

Low by David Bowie

Tragic Songs of Life by The Louvin Brothers

Every song sounded the same and it quickly got old

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix

Honky Tonk Masquerade by Joe Ely

Good solid country album! Love the accordion use throughout. Boxcars a highlight.

Stephen Stills by Stephen Stills

What an auditory treat. Lush instrumentation. Big expansive sounds! Powerful vocals! I loved it.

Tres Hombres by ZZ Top

Bland and forgettable

Beauty And The Beat by The Go-Go's

I assumed this would be cheesy but it was actually wonderful

Second Toughest In The Infants by Underworld

...And Justice For All by Metallica

California by American Music Club

Whiny and annoying. Some musically interesting moments here and there but mostly I was ready for it to be over.

Paris 1919 by John Cale

Spiderland by Slint

Fine

Beautiful Freak by Eels

Back At The Chicken Shack by Jimmy Smith

Django Django by Django Django

Gave it 3 stars bc the symphony sounded WONDERFUL. Truly some beautiful, powerful musical moments. But it was still over two hours of Metallica music, and that was just way too much.

Emergency On Planet Earth by Jamiroquai

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits

L'Eau Rouge by The Young Gods

The music itself was great but the vocals were so grating

Cross by Justice

No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith (Live) by Motörhead

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones

Live / Dead by Grateful Dead

Wonderful. I’ve never listened to a Grateful Dead live album, and I completely understand why their fan culture is so centered around recordings of their live performances. This sounds ahead of its time, and I can detect a throughline to many of the bands I adore today.

Pornography by The Cure

E.V.O.L. by Sonic Youth

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below by OutKast

A Rush Of Blood To The Head by Coldplay

Can't put aside that this is an album sexualizing a 14 year old.
