Urban HymnsThe Verve

8/10

This album came out swinging with the first song being their most well known, Bitter Sweet Symphony. After Lucky Man, the album got a bit boring for the last few songs on the album. Definately a front loaded record. The "hidden track", Deep Freeze, we pointless. It sounded like a baby crying in space.... That's it..... No music, just noise. Kind of dumb. Overall, not a bad album. Pretty solid 90's alt rock, and loads better than their other album I reviewed on here, A Northern Soul.

Favourite songs: Bitter Sweet Symphony, Lucky Man, The Rolling People, Weeping Willow, Space and Time, Sonnet

Least favourite songs: Neon Wilderness

In It for the MoneySupergrass

6/10

This is the second Supergrass album I've reviewed on this generator. These guys are your typical 90's alt rock/britpop fare, similar to Oasis, The Verve, or The Strokes.

This wasn't a bad album, but I could have done without the second disc which was loaded with B-Sides from their first album, I Should Coco, as well as a few from this album. This second disc really drug the rest of the album as a whole down, because none of the songs on the second disc were anything spectacular, and all it did was make the playtime on this record about 30 mins too long. My rating for just the first disc would be a 4, but because of this shitty second disc, it drops to a 2.5 - 3.

Favourite songs: G-Song, Sex!, Sitting Up Straight, Sun Hits The Sky, In It For The Money, Going Out, Richard III

Least favourite songs: Caught By The Fuzz, It's Not Me

Brazilian MPB (Musica Popular Brasileira). Apparently MPB is traditional Brazilian music (Samba,baiao...) mixed with foreign influences like jazz and rock. It's unique and quite interesting.

Favourite songs: Trem De Doido, Paisagem Da Janela, O Trem Azul, Cravo E Canela, Um Girassol Da Cor Do Seu Cabelo, San Vicente

Least favourite songs: Cais, Pelo Amor De Deus, Ao Que Vai Nascer

Why these morons have one album on this list, let alone 2 is beyond me. This one is better than the first one of theirs I had, but still just generic 80's post punk... Nothing too exciting going on at all

Favourite songs: Infected, Slow Train to Dawn

Least favourite songs: Twilight of a Champion

THIS. IS. NOT. MUSIC.... Anything that starts with "experimental" is usually garbage....which is true here as well! You can't just play random noises over random mumbling, drums, and abused synthesizers and call it music. This literally made me angry, and gave me a headache. Aumgn sounds like zombies in space. Whoever put this on this list is an absolute moron.

Favourite songs: Halleluhwah

Least favourite songs: Aumgn, Peking O

8/10

Snoop's debut album. I've always had a soft spot for Snoop. Huge on the west coast hip hop scene. I love his style of rapping, and the sound he created (the start of what they call G-Funk). Influenced heavily by Parliament/Funkadelic's funk sound of the 70's. Man he loves singing about fucking bitches.

Favourite songs: Gin and Juice, Who Am I (What's My Name)?, Serial Killa, Gz and Hustlas, The Shiznit

Least favourite songs: Bathtub (fuck skits)

6/10

Swiss industrial rock, sung in french. It sounds like if Tom Waits was French and got really into Nine Inch Nails and Rammstein. Quite interesting if nothing else, and not nearly as bad as I was expecting. I actually didn't mind it.

Favourite songs: Longue Route, Pas Mal, Ville Notre, Rue Des Tempetes, L'Eau Rouge

Least favourite songs: Les Enfants

Exile on Main St.The Rolling Stones

8/10

Great Blues rock. I was unfamiliar with most of this album, but it was really solid. The album did suffer a bit from being a little long winded, which led to some of the songs being a little same-y, but overall really well done.

Favourite songs: Ventilator Blues, Tumbling Dice, Sweet Virginia, Torn and Frayed, Shine a Light, Happy, Turd on the Run, All Down the Line, Rip This Joint, Rocks Off

Least favourite songs: I Just Want to See His Face

This wasn't great. Modern Madonna... Just shitty electro pop music, drum machines, and her moaning. Not for me.

Bridge Over Troubled WaterSimon and Garfunkel

10/10

Ahh yes, the Simon & Garfunkel album where it looks like Art Garfunkel has an enormous handlebar moustache lol. This album is actually really solid! Baby Driver, The Boxer, Cecilia....what's not to love... Simon & Garfunkel are hipster fuel though.

Favourite songs: Baby Driver, Cecilia, The Boxer

Least favourite songs: "So Long, Frank Lloyd Wright"

Why does this album have radio announcer excerpts throughout. Fuck I hate skits. All it does is detract from the flow of the rest of the album.
