Dang, I have to listen to all this. I like the Beatles but don't love the Beatles, so I get annoyed at this. There's some real joy and experimentation on this album. The hits are hitting. Blackbird I think is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. I think I just can't override my overall annoyance.

Another day of "not sure why this is on here." Not unpleasant, but not inspiring either. I just listened to "The Bends" by Radiohead and stylistically it feels similar which is to say a bit boring with forced singing.

Unlucky for these guys, I was catching up on albums and had two Australian easy listening albums in a row. I liked this one better but also did not like the singing.

I surprisingly like this? More than the Depeche Mode? Creepy spooky mode this week for the holiday.

Incredible bass playing on this, with satisfying and spooky ambiance. I am not big on long tracks, even if I mostly liked the music. I also can't help but compare this to Paranoid, which was a no skips album for me. This is a skips album.

Ok you go from sad sappy fake gospel singing to some righteous guitar playing. Then back to too long songs. I'm grateful to be in an era where you can listen to "Maggie May" and not have to buy a whole record.

This is very much like music I already listen to. It's a strange album and a strange inclusion but I appreciate it! Underbelly was such a lovely track.
