It’s actually surprisingly good. I like it a lot better than Yoshimi. I’m gonna use this platform to rant about their latest release which is a Lullaby version of Yoshimi, which must be for the worst most pretentious babies on earth.

Jazz albums are always hard to rate. For me it needs to do something that stands out. This one really didn’t in a meaningful way

Hoo boy what a stinker. I feel bad giving it a 1 because I think it’s fine in execution, it’s just the execution is of the most maudlin crap

It’s pretty good. Definitely a smooth thing you vibe to in the background more than something I’d go back to to actively listen to

All the musical grace and beauty of the crazy guy yelling on the subway

If anyone but Dave Grohl was the lead of Foo Fighters they’d probably be a post grunge footnote. It’s good but it’s not great. The mix is bad on some songs. Dave hadn’t found his stride. But there are some bangers on here

Every time it’s a massive pain in the ass to find one of the albums I wonder how the fuck anyone was supposed to do this before streaming.

Anyway. Throwing Muses.

This is excellent, and once again I have to ask why the fuck can’t I stream this anywhere sensible

You kinda need a Sparks album on this list if only to show off this maximalist pop band. I prefer Angst in My Pants, but this is also phenomenal

This! Was shockingly good. Really dig the organ and the jazzy sounds. Paired with the folk classic John Barleycorn.

Really great punk album

Kind of at a loss of what to say about it. I think it’s 5 stars but there’s always something that holds me back from saying it is. I’m gonna go with my gut?

It’s kind of baffling this is from the first half of the 80s. It really has some exceptional peaks but also has some stretches of uninteresting filler. I think the best Meat Pullets album is a greatest hits

It’s not as good as his other albums. Sort boring and that silly jaw harp really…sucks lol. Less poetic more stories but they’re stories I can’t really relate to

I need every user on here to apologize to all the weird experimental music and German shit that is the lowest rated on here and apologize. This album is the dribbling shits. Worst thing I’ve listened to

Tropicalia rules but I tend to prefer Gilberto Gil. This is definitely more of the bossa nova smooth kind, less the psychedelic rock inspired kind that’s more fun

The first two tracks are electrifying. It sounds like a nightmare in the best way. You want it to keep going to see how crazy it gets. And then it doesn’t. It just sort of hovers between interesting and mind numbing. How many weird sounds can we do? Less! You should have done less!

I’ve done enough folk singing with queer women to know Gillian rules. The thing is her album Soul Journey seems to be the universal fave? It’s the one I know the most from and like a lot so I’m kinda shocked this album is the choice. Give that other one a listen. It’s nice pretty folk music.

I really want to like Billy Bragg. In theory he’s a leftist folk musician, that should be my bread and butter. And sometimes he’s great! But often he’s just sorta fine, the message isn’t really present on some of the songs, his voice is fine. I want to like it more

You can’t hate this. The biggest issue is that back then every hip hop song took 4 to 6 business days to finish. WRAP IT UP FELLAS

This has a couple of bright spots that make it feel more than just another average 60s album but not enough to make it. Good.
