Pleasant as fuck.

More awful shit from MM.

Ya, OK whatever. Not horrible, but no real interest in hearing this again,

A sassy little album that’ll sneak up and slap you on the ass when you’re not looking.

Cum on feel the noize!

Really not too sure what to do about this one. Music is kind of cool but weird vocal stylings are a bit of a turnoff. Kind of growing on me over time, but is repellent enough that I’m not sure I’d seek it out again. OK in small doses.

I kind of diggit!

Might be ok if the best bits were condensed into 1 short album maybe with 6 to 9 love songs.

I guess I don’t hate Radiohead anymore. Thank you Generator.

This album made me feel physically ill.

Feeling embarrassed to give this anything higher than a 1, but this is a bit of a guilty pleasure.

Feels weird to drop 2 stars on one of my most favorite bands, but really never could get into this album.

I like Steve Earle. I like the breakfasts you get in the truck stops he sings about, but they often need salt, pepper, and a dash of hot sauce. Steve’s music could really use more musical salt and pepper and a big splash of hot sauce.

Really don't know about this one. Kind of weird, and not really in a good way. Annoying theatrical/cinematic vocals and stupid lyrics. Managed to listen to it more than once out of morbid curiosity to see if any of it would resonate - which it didn't, so since it wasn't awfully awful, I guess it gets a 1.5 rounded up to a 2. Will give it a bonus half point for lyrics referencing horse shit.

Sounds like generic lounge music on a cursory listen, but a deep listen with headphones reveals so much more. This is one where reading some of the backstory prompted a closer look and a much greater appreciation than what's just on the surface.

Another one that was a repeat-listen obsession on a homemade cassette tape many years ago. Love this album start to finish!

Love the late 50s vibe on this one, but not so into the big band brassiness. Still excellent though.

Another that might not warrant so high a rating as it got based on the pure musicality, but lands some solid nostalgia points.

I can still smell the cardboard sleeve of the vinyl record my folks had. One of my earliest memories of music here and phenomenal album start to finish.

Definitely belongs on the list for the historical interest, but nothing especially compelling about the music or specific recording to listen to very often.
