Reviews by kitch82

90s grunge music was never my thing.

I feel the album starts well but gets boring as it progresses. there are songs at the start where you can see they are trying to do something different and something that is a bit more than 90s grunge. The album has moments and great melodies. I would explore more smashing pumpkins.

Favourite song: Disarm
Least favourite: the latter half ot the album
Album artwork: A bit creepy.

I really enjoyed this album, I had heard the singles before and liked them even more as an album all together. Its very good and complete

I had never heard ninteen hundred and eighty five before, what a great song. That will be played again!!

Favourite song: Band on the run
Least favourite: Bluebird, I was not a fan of this at all.
Album artwork: Iconic album cover

The second album in a row that my review is just one word. Awful!!

This is not an album, its a history lesson in indian music and culture.

Good, old fashioned garage rock. 12 great pop songs in under 30 minutes. I really enjoyed this album.

There are some great original songs like the witch and Strychnine and some classic rock and roll covers. This album is good fun.

Favourite song: Have love will travel and money
Least favourite: Walkin the dog
Album artwork: Basic

TidalFiona Apple

Rated 8/10

Great songs, fantastic voice and angry lyrics. I like it a lot. Pop art at its best.

Sleep to dream, sullen girl and shadow boxer are great songs and Carrion is a lovely way to finish the album. There are so many good songs on this album 6/10 are / were big hits.

Favourite song: Shadow boxer
Least favourite: Never is a promise was a little boring.
Album artwork: Lovely eyes!!

This is going to be a tough listen. This was not for me at all. 90S pop and R&B at its worst, good voice though!!

Favourite song: honey was an ok pop song.
Least favourite: The rest of the album.
Album artwork: Hot!!!

I have always thought of Alice Cooper as a bit of a joke act, and I have never taken his work seriously before now.

I really enjoyed this album. It was fun. I am surprised. I really enjoyed Mary Ann, I loved the dead and Billion-dollar babies.

Favourite song: No more mister nice guy
Least favourite: Sick things
Album artwork: A bit of a lame cover. I expected better

Lots of funk and disco but not as good as Thriller.

Dont stop till you get enough and Rock with you carry the album. Fantastic songs but past the opening to I found it to be very average

Favourite song: Dont stop till you get enough
Least favourite: Get on the floor
Album artwork: An odd man

I really agree with a lot of the comments. I really do hate prog rock!!

This album does have some cool moments in around all the intrsumentals, Larks part 2 was a good song. Apart from that it is another poor album

Favourite song: larks part 2
Least favourite: All of the other tracks
Album artwork: Cool artwork

When I saw the first track was 20 minutes long I nearly gave up from the start.

I have never listened to an Emerson, Lake, & Palmer before and had no idea what to expect. I will not be listening again

Favourite song: None
Least favourite: all of them
Album artwork: Great cover.

This album was funky, It was OK but nothing more. It couldn’t keep my concentration and became a background sound. This is not one I would listen to again

Favourite song: Family affair
Least favourite: The instrumentals towards the end of the album
Album artwork: American

The BendsRadiohead

Rated 8/10

This album is Radiohead at their best. Fantastic stuff.

High and dry and fake plastic trees are fantastic songs and then further down the album you have just and my iron lung. there are some great tunes!

Favourite song:Just
Least favourite: Sulk
Album artwork: Iconic cover.

Clowns is very dull!! and on reflection I found the album to be very dull. I am not a fan of her voice at all.

Favourite song: Little bird is a lovely song.
Least favourite: The rest of the album.
Album artwork: Cool cover

I was never really a fan of Nirvana and never understood the hype, but this album is good. It adds cover to the hits, and they sound fantastic acoustically. I never really appreciated how many great covers there are on this album until now.

Favourite song: About a girl, the man who sold the world and where did you sleep last night.
Least favourite: I have never liked Pennyroyal tea
Album artwork: Cool cover

Nice folk music, This album has some great songs on it and some not so great songs. Its a real mixed bag.

I really enjoyed the end of the rainbow and when I get to the boarder Then there were songs that I just could not get on with like the great valerio and the little beggar girl.

Favourite song: The end of the rainbow
Least favourite: the little beggar girl. It could have easily featured in Robin Hood the Disney cartoon.
Album artwork: Simple and effective cover

The songs sound like good punk, the lyrics are silly and funny which is a good sign but for some reason I found the album a bit stale at fist.

After a second or third listen though I grew to love some songs, and it really changed my opinion on the album. The cover of I got you babe is quite unique and California sun, two tub man and I live for cars and girls are great songs. It’s a fun album.

Favourite song: California sun and two tub man are great songs.
Least favourite: Master race rock
Album artwork: Interesting cover

Pink FlagWire

Rated 8/10

Short, sharp, and great. Punk at its best. 21 songs in 36 minutes is impressive feet. I had never heard of Wire or pink flag before, but I was impressed. It seemed very ahead of its time for a 1977 release.

Favourite song: Three girl rumba and ex lion tamer.
Least favourite: Nothing was long enough to not like
Album artwork: Cool cover

TransformerLou Reed

Rated 8/10

I used to absolutely love this album when I was younger. It felt dangerous, cool, and a bit untouchable. Listening back now, I don’t quite hold it in the same reverence — and I can’t help wondering if Lou Reed is slightly overrated.

That said, there’s no denying how strong this record is. The songwriting is sharp, the attitude effortless, and the atmosphere unmistakable. The “Perfect Day” demo is beautiful — stripped back and genuinely moving, showing the tenderness behind the bravado.

Favourite tracks: It’s almost impossible to choose. “Vicious” is brilliantly biting, and “Walk on the Wild Side” is iconic for a reason — laid-back, stylish, and completely of its time.

Least favourite: If I’m being picky, “Goodnight Ladies” — but even that has its charm.

Album artwork: A perfect cover. Stark, cool, and effortlessly stylish

Even if it doesn’t hit me quite the way it once did, it’s still a hugely important and influential album — and one I’ll always have some affection for.
