Perfect album front to back.

A departure from what I expected.

80's-defining rap. The godfathers.

My God. To think this & Blue dropped the same year is insane.

Never been a fan. Hard to ignore their impact on 80's & 90's metal/rock and roll.

Is this metal? Bardic metal? Psychedelic bardic metal? Progressive psychedelic bardic metal? Prog-psych-bardcore? Fun listen, not my particular cup of tea.

You can hear them figuring out their sound. A strong early effort.

Oh, I just realized I really like T. Rex.

A more mainstream DJ Shadow? Great album regardless.

Pioneers of lofi/trip hop. Features by TRICKY, Shara Nelson, Horace Andy, et al. fill out this album beautifully. Inspired to do a 90's trip hop deep dive.

Seminal rock. Solid listen front to back.

Peak 90's instrumental hip-hop. You can hear NoW in current 21st century lofi .

Absolute music royalty. He manipulates and bends genres to his will. Classic listen.

What is there to say that hasn't already been said thousands of times. Hit after hit after hit. They're almost inhuman.

This band has always confused me. They're fine.

So glad I'm finally exploring her catalog. I was aware of Tori Amos since my adolescence - I just assumed she didn't write music for me, so I never sought her out. Now that I am a (slightly) wiser man, I can absolutely respect and enjoy her music. Lilting vocals, expressive pianos, and brooding lyrics define Amos's sound, and it's omnipresent on this album.

How do they keep writing perfect albums?

Pixies walked so Weezer could run. It is apparent on this record. The drums, the clean-dirty-clean guitars, the emotionally vulnerable lyrics...while no Surfer Rosa or Doolittle, Bossanova is an important step in The Pixies' sonic journey.
