Funeral

Arcade Fire · 1 likes

4/5

This is such a great record. Deducting a point because Win Butler is a chump.

Hunky Dory

David Bowie

4/5

Bowie is a blind spot for me. This was a great listen. I’ve been missing out.

Nilsson Schmilsson

Harry Nilsson

1/5

This is not for me. Some ok tracks on here but borders on novelty music

Californication

Red Hot Chili Peppers

3/5

This band has not aged well for me. But they still have some great songs on this record. Terrible ones like I Like Dirt bring it down.

The Stone Roses

3/5

Maybe not one I will go back to a lot, but enjoyed it. Truly have never heard a stone roses album

Different Class

Pulp

4/5

This is a great record. Forgot how great it was actually.

The Suburbs

Arcade Fire

2/5

I prefer Funeral but any Arcade Fire album is tainted by what has happened with Winn Butler. 5 years ago I probably would have given this a 4, but I hear the music differently now.

Murmur

R.E.M.

5/5

REM is one of my all time favorite bands so this is a little biased. And despite being an unapologetic 90s REM fan, this debut album is the best indie rock debut in history

Antichrist Superstar

Marilyn Manson

1/5

I hated it then and I hate it now. Garbage.

Juju

Siouxsie And The Banshees

2/5

Just not super into the 80s new wave sound

Harvest

Neil Young

5/5

Absolute classic. Not a bad track on this record.

Siembra

Willie Colón & Rubén Blades

4/5

Not typically my kind of music, but I really enjoyed this

The Colour Of Spring

4/5

Really enjoyed this more than I expected. Truly had never heard of this band and loved 90% of this record

A Girl Called Dusty

Dusty Springfield

2/5

Not into the whole doo wop thing

Funeral

Arcade Fire

4/5

This is such a great record. Deducting a point because Win Butler is a chump.

Smokers Delight

Nightmares On Wax

1/5

I’m sorry but this is elevator music

Strange Cargo III

William Orbit

2/5

This electronica 80s stuff is just not for me. There were a couple moments where I got into this one, but most of the time no.

...And Justice For All

Metallica

1/5

Not a Metallica guy

Headquarters

The Monkees

4/5

Monkees are under appreciated. This is Pet Sounds level stuff
