Your New Favourite Band
Oh my god, these guys are my new favorite band! Because they told me they are! Even though I think their music is derivative and stale! And…

Freak Out!
Found this at a garage sale, plunked down my 25 cents, then went home and put it on the turntable. My world literally changed. I was now in…

The Next Day
Wait, is this guy… gay or something? He seems to be a little off the beaten track. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing here. Music needs…

Hybrid Theory
One really long, long song. Don’t know why they keep putting pauses in it though. That’s not a bad thing. If you enjoy the music, then a…

California
As I was perusing my way through all these reviews, I realized that there weren’t really any Country/Western albums present. Since I’m not…

The Joshua Tree
Meh. Hard to get over the arrogance of someone willfully naming himself ‘Good Voice’
-
Tracy Chapman
I had a fast car once. It was a lot of fun, and only got me in trouble once or twice. I remember it well, much better than all of the other…

Architecture And Morality
OMG. OMD was once a BFD. But now this sounds like outdated EDM. Maybe now most suited to being BGM. Frankly boring AF. CUL8R.

Two Dancers
Tiny Tim meets Kate Bush and they go on tour as lounge singers. I’m sure this touches somebody’s soul somewhere. Somewhere far away from…

Steve McQueen
This is actually quite good. I mean, I wouldn’t pay money for it, and I wouldn’t go to a concert by them, and I wouldn’t recommend it to…
-
The Suburbs
Whiny. Which is interesting, because if you say it a little oddly, that could sound like “wo ai ni”, which is ‘I love you’ in Chinese.…

Copper Blue
Sound like a discount version of the foo fighters. Probably not enough of a discount to be worth it though…

Veckatimest
This was not what I expected. I know I’ve said that before and will say it again, but it bears haha, get it? repeating. This is not what I…

Music for the Masses
I really don’t think this is music for the masses. The masses don’t have any real taste, and prefer things that are insipid, repetitious,…
-
High Violet
I don’t have much to say about this one. I could go on and on about how the flavor and setting of each tune seemed to be highly similar…
-
Dub Housing
Man, the beat on the intro track promised me a treat. Then the, uh, “singing” started. That seems to be a them with this Pere Ubu. A nifty…

Ágætis Byrjun
Could not get into it. Dark, dull, slow Also – thank the universe for copy/paste! There is NO WAY I would have been able to type those…

Truth And Soul
I remember one of those early music recommendation systems offered this up as something I might like. I’d like to stress the “might”. You…

Before And After Science
I’m not really sure what I just listened to. I feel like there was a touch of Talking Heads, a smatter of Peter Gabriel, a smidgeon of Paul…

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus
I know a guy Hi Chris! who absolutely loves Nick Cave. I think he has brain damage personally having supplied him with much of the wine…

Queens of the Stone Age
This is some hard driving grunge rock. And that’s about all I have to say about it. Well, wait a second, there is more. This would not be…
-
Vauxhall And I
Where’s Brown Eyed Girl? This is the guy who sang that, right? I don’t recognize any of the tunes on this album. What happened?

Fever To Tell
The most obvious joke to use here is Naw Naw Naws. There is some here to say Yeah to, but more to say Naw like, they have a track called No…
