A strange trip into ambient that mixes a variety of genres to soothe the soul

A decent romp through the post-Zeppelin era. The Born to be Wild side step though is almost unforgivable.

A rock revolution that was instrumental in the craze.

A psychedelic trip blending genres I didn't know where a wonderful match. Not everything hit but an important album of its era.

A revolutionary album with powerful lyrics that hits at the racial divides with authority.

A new one for me. A mind blending and genre busting output over four girthy songs. Something to revisit but a pleasant first experience.

Three in a row. The Zeppelin continues down a deeper and darker path that excites and dazzles.

A mastercraft of rock, blues and jazz from a living legend in Rod. The soundwork holds up and is as relevant as ever.

A superb hit single to lead off followed by an album of its time. Never really gets back into full gear but a decent listen.

A classic rock stable blending psychedelic and heavy leaning rock.

A new discovery on my radar for post-punk. At the edge of the 70s before new-wave but has that sprinkle anticipating the coming change. A wonderful new addition to anyone's collection.

A continued run of form that will never be matched. A stone cold classic from beginning to end. The energy and pacing has no rival.

An important electronic act and an important album. That being said, it has a certain nature of repetitiveness that doesn't necessarily mean timeless. The boundaries and working blocks for future success are transparent.

The master of indie folk weaves acoustic melodies with lyrical craft that pains and amazes.

The final Hüsker Dü album culminates with the rock and maturity you'd expect from Bob Mould. A band to remember.

A true leap in talent, production and lyrical prowess. Thoroughly enjoy her pop stardom in both the English and French versions.

An 80s masterpiece with a current revival. The power and beauty still stand tall today.

Psychedelic craftwork in the height of the 60s wave.

Megadeth is not in my wheelhouse. This is a difficult album to review from a technical or artistic standpoint when the music does not agree with my tastes. Overall I can see the measurement of where it ranks in the trash categories but it is just not for me.

Punk meets hip-hop in a refreshing politically charged album of its time. MIA hasn't held up in terms of her promising debut but the appreciation is still there (if you ignore her current rantings).
