Dookie

Green Day

2/5

Brings back memories, but not really my cup of tea nowadays. Some good songs, but a bit monotonous. When I come around is my favorite now, Basket Case being overplayed.

Disintegration

The Cure

3/5

Strong 3 for me. Some really good songs, but others are leaning a bit too hard on aesthetic, without much substance underneath.

Joan Armatrading

2/5

The songs sound mostly «OK» to me. It’s immaculately performed and produced though. Found myself skipping the most funky songs. Works as non-intrusive background, but not much more to me.

Talking Book

Stevie Wonder

3/5

Moondance

Van Morrison

5/5

This album is great! The horns, the songs, van himself. Just don’t try to understand what he’s singing, you won’t 😁. Thanks for reminding me about this one!

Exit Planet Dust

1/5

In Utero

Nirvana

5/5

The Number Of The Beast

3/5

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Animal Collective

4/5

Like putting Pet Sounds in a blender. In a good way.

The United States Of America

2/5

Has not stood the test of time. Stopped listening after 5 songs, it was just annoying.

Protection

Massive Attack

2/5

Ok, I guess, better than I feared. Liked the dubby parts the best.

There's No Place Like America Today

Curtis Mayfield

3/5

Dare!

The Human League

2/5

The Modern Lovers

4/5

Less punky and more jammy than I remembered it, but this was a delightful revisit. So fun, loose, catchy and dorky (in a good way). I’m not fully convinced Picasso was never called an asshole, though. But it’s a cool rhyme anyway :)

Music in Exile

Songhoy Blues

4/5

Yes, this was cool!

Le Tigre

4/5

A fun revisit! It's deliberately simplistic, repetitive and slightly annoying. For most songs, that doesn't matter, because it's also such a cool blend of fun, catchy and angry. But sometimes it falls through, which costs it one star in my book.

A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Coldplay

2/5

Some of the songs were big hits for good reason, but I personally find most of this album a bit boring. Not many interesting musical ideas, and the melodies are mostly in one ear and out the other. Not a bad album per se, but a bit too middle-of-the-road for my tastes.
