Can't Buy A Thrill

Steely Dan

5/5

Banger album start to finish. I knew the hits (Midnite Cruiser, Dirty Work, Reelin In the Years) which are great but there are no misses on this thing.

Disintegration

The Cure

3/5

I get it but I just found it quite boring. There are some catchy songs and the instrumental/synth work is excellent. Don't think I would return to this one.

Harvest

Neil Young

2/5

Reggatta De Blanc

The Police

3/5

Kind Of Blue

Miles Davis

4/5

This was good! Very chill and easy to listen to.

Ramones

1/5

DNF. I hate this. They cant song and what are they saying.

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

4/5

Good album. Very ideosyncratic singing but I liked it. Also based.

Pearl

Janis Joplin

5/5

Great voice with so much character. The song writing was fun and thoughtful.

The Cars

3/5

This was fine. Quintessential 70s rock, knew the hits. Some good guitar work but I dont see myself returning.

Berlin

Lou Reed

4/5

This was great! Lou Reed has a lovely voice, the songs are very emotional and well-made. Guitar and bass work was excellent. Some slightly dated stuff about women in there but it is also tied up in his obviously very complicated relationship with his mother.

Scum

Napalm Death

4/5

Very interesting. I have not listened to much grindcore but a lot of hardcore. I really appreciated the guitar work and the drums in particular. They are very raw and add a lot. The vocals are a lot but I get the energy behind them.

Bryter Layter

Nick Drake

4/5

Surprisingly very good for someone who doesn't typically like folk. Drake has a unique voice that is quite beautiful. It took a little bit to get into the album but the second half in particular is fantastic (from Bryter Layter). Also all the instrumentation is excellent.

Hounds Of Love

Kate Bush

3/5

High highs and boring lows. It really dragged towards the end after a great start. Running up that hill still awesome. Weird just but in the way I like.

Hot Fuss

The Killers

5/5

No skips. Best of the early 00s alt rock. Obvs Mr Brightside but OnTop is a better pop song. Love it

Achtung Baby

2/5

People who said old U2 is good are liars. Bono is so fucking corny. Some of the guitar work is ok but the songs are so fucking boring.

Infected

The The

3/5

Lyrically very cool, musically wasn't super my vibe. Very 80s weird rock.

Come Find Yourself

Fun Lovin' Criminals

1/5

I hated this, DNF after 5 songs. The music is boring as hell and they are the most basic stoner vibes imaginable.

Remain In Light

Talking Heads

4/5

Fantastically weird album. Really gets going at The Great Curve and doenst let up.

It's Blitz!

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

2/5

Boring generic late 00s alt rock. Just did nothing for me.

Let's Get It On

Marvin Gaye

5/5

Absolutely fantastic album. Gaye has such an incredible voice, the tracks are so groovy with such beautiful instrumentation. Also very horny.

Beach Samba

Astrud Gilberto

2/5

Did not like. Quintessential 60s bossa nova. Incredibly boring, exactly what you think it sounds like. LOWLIGHTS: Parada and Oba Oba.

Wild Wood

Paul Weller

2/5

Really boring. KEEP THESE WHITE MEN AWAY FROM THE ACOUSTIC GUITARS

Ready To Die

The Notorious B.I.G.

5/5

Classic

Franz Ferdinand

4/5

Quirked up white boy music. Had heard the singles but not the full album, was very fun. Particularly liked the matinee song.

We Are Family

Sister Sledge

4/5

Great album! Beautiful singing, fun songs and great bass. I think it being short did it well as there wasn't a ton of variety and it did not wear out its welcome.
