Live Through ThisHole

Rated 10/10

I already know so many clever political songs from this album, very curious to hear the whole thing! That was awesome. That felt like Rage Against the Machine levels of righteous fury. Five stars

I did not realize just how many songs I would know of this album. This has got to be top notch. I mean eruption alone!

Rated 8/10

Gotta love a Harpsichord! Most of the album felt light and fun, Revelations would probably be awesome live, but here felt like a bit of a slog.

I expected to be a little bored outside of Sweet Emotion and maybe Walk this way, but that was actually a lot of fun! Varied, bluesy, consistently well paced and phrased. Much better than expected. Five Stars.

I don't enjoy the style of yell rapping and if anything besides proud to be black made any sort of important statement it went over my head. At least it didn't seem harmful. Really not my thing. 3 stars.

Amazing how much recognition can improve your enjoyment. There Goes the Fear sparked joy and New York increased it. Probably still only a four star album. Moments of greateness.

Such raw sound! I feel the emotion. Cool aesthetic for sure. Only Trigger Cut really stood out, but still very pleasant. Four Stars

Ooh! Groovy! Turns out I am a complete sucker for vocal harmony. I should have known. very solid. nothing transcendent. four star album. Would listen again.

That was okay. The 80's sound was nice and the melodies and instrumentation were solid, but the vocals were off in a way thaht just wasn't interesting. Don't think I would listen again.
