Blood On The Tracks

Bob Dylan · 1 likes

5/5

I didn't know a single one of these tracks, but they all felt like timeless poetry. Truely one of the greats.

3/5

There's a time and a place for this album. It was not the bus to work.

Dookie

Green Day

2/5

Not a lot of dynamic variation. Couple of good songs stood out but not a big fan overall.

Beggars Banquet

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Great album. Weirdly the only one I knew (Sympathy for the Devil) was probably my least favourite. Really enjoyed Jigsaw Puzzle.

Live Through This

Hole

4/5

Wasn't familiar with Hole. Great lyrics, fantastic guy wrenching vocals and some interesting tunes. Not really my style particularly, but enjoyed regardless.

The Velvet Underground & Nico

The Velvet Underground

1/5

Disjointed and awkward. Feels like I wondered into a jam session attended entirely be people who were insanely high and thought that they had just played the best sound ever made, then instantly forgot what it was and spent the next five minutes trying to find it again. Awful.

Disintegration

The Cure

5/5

Abraxas

Santana

4/5

Fear Of Music

Talking Heads

3/5

Quite enjoyable, fairly easy listening. Not particularly memorable though. Wouldn't change the station, but wouldn't buy a ticket

Ill Communication

Beastie Boys

4/5

Not my usual genre at all, but I surprisingly enjoyed my time listening to this one. Very rhythmic and flowy.

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

4/5

Not a genre I even knew existed, yet several of the tracks were hauntingly familiar. Very good, but felt more like background music or maybe a soundtrack than something I want to listen to actively.

Blood On The Tracks

Bob Dylan

5/5

I didn't know a single one of these tracks, but they all felt like timeless poetry. Truely one of the greats.

1984

Van Halen

4/5

Fabulously energetic and just all around fun album, that despite having some insanely complex musical arrangements, somehow feels super approachable.

Penthouse And Pavement

Heaven 17

3/5

Completely unfamiliar with Heaven 17. Quite enjoyed it.
