Rated 2/10
It's not the worst album we've had to listen to, but that might be the only nice thing I have to say about it. Hard to win me back after a 12 minute song of droning and occasional beeping, even harder if you don't even try.
Favourite song: The Sad Skinhead
Least: Just a Second
Rated 6/10
Can't believe before you can hear You Can't Always Get What You Want you have to hear them sing "I'm a cold Italian pizza, I could use a lemon squeezer..." some real highs and lows.
Favourite song: You Can't Always Get What You Want
Least: Monkey Man
I really like the stuff they're saying I just don't love the way they say it. Maybe if I was feeling more energetic but currently I like the album theoretically a lot more than I like it musically.
Favourite song: California Uber Alles
Least: Forward to Death
Rated 8/10
It's unapologetically messy and noisy and energetic, so much so that if it was made by men I think I'd hate it. But it was made by 17 year old Ari Up and so every choice that might annoy me instead feels revolutionary.
It's also not hard to see why this made it on the list- beyond it's impact it's so interwoven with other artists of the time. Johnny Rotten's stepdaughter, The Clash's Mick Jones' girlfriend and the future Siouxsie and the Banshees drummer make an album together that becomes one of Kurt Cobain's favourite 50 records.
I don't love the reggae aspects.
Favourite song: So Tough
Least: Instant Hit
Rated 8/10
He's actually got two Grammys so there's a lie right at the start of the album. I liked this album so much more than I thought I would- it didn't have the sexism or homophobia I've come to fear from rap albums of this era and there are some really great and powerful moments in this album. You can feel his anger and frustration and it's explained so well.
Is a bit too long and while I found Bitches 2 really fun just cause it's not calling women bitches doesn't mean it's not sexist... but a lot less sexist than I expected!
Body count is a bit like when a tv show has an episode about a background character to try to launch a spin off show- a backdoor pilot song.
Favourite song: Straight Up N****( or O.G. Original Gangster, or Body Count)
Least: New Jack Hustler
