Wish You Were Here

Pink Floyd

5/5

An album that is structured as a 45 minute experience, not a collection of songs. More than the sum of it's parts, which are all good.

Licensed To Ill

Beastie Boys

4/5

I get it

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

5/5

In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

4/5

I was vibing with this hard, until "Moonchild" showed up and sucked all the wind out of the sails. Luckily "The Court of the Crimson King" kind of a banger to end us off so they brought me back

My Generation

The Who

3/5

Kind Of Blue

Miles Davis

4/5

Behaviour

Pet Shop Boys

3/5

Entertainment

Gang Of Four

4/5

A Grand Don't Come For Free

The Streets

1/5

Didn't finish. The spoken word hip hop is not for me. Quite possibly the most British thing ive ever encountered.

Band On The Run

Paul McCartney and Wings

2/5

Moving Pictures

Rush

4/5

Tom Sawyer, Red Barchetta, and YYZ are obviously excellent, Limelight and Camera's Eye are solid too, but im just not a fan of Witch Hunt or Vital Signs. As much as I want to give this a 5, I can't justify it for an album that, in my opinion, loses its steam in the back half.

The Number Of The Beast

Iron Maiden

2/5

Freak Out!

The Mothers Of Invention

1/5

Music to chew bubblegum to. Actually criminal that right when you think you're close, they hit you with a 12 minute song that is just random sounds.

Sheer Heart Attack

Queen

2/5

Man, I like queen but there's a reason only like two of these have survived the cultural zeitgeist

Van Halen

4/5

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

Kanye West

4/5

Bad people are capable of making good art, and people who can't separate the art from the artist need to grow up

Scum

Napalm Death

1/5

Didn't finish. Im sure this is for someone, but I dont think I would be their friend.

Scissor Sisters

3/5

Pet Sounds

The Beach Boys

3/5

If Mothers of Invention's Freak Out! Is music to chew bubblegum to (derogatory), this is music to chew bubblegum to (complementary). Problem is I'm just not a gum guy.

With The Beatles

Beatles

4/5

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

5/5

Talking With the Taxman About Poetry

Billy Bragg

2/5

Why is it. So. Damn. Long.

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady

Charles Mingus

5/5

In highschool jazz band we played Haitian Fight Song, my first introduction to Charles Mingus. I think he is unironically one of the best to ever do it.

Arise

Sepultura

1/5

Death metal is not for me. Did not finish.

Birth Of The Cool

Miles Davis

3/5

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

Sex Pistols

2/5

Aja

Steely Dan
