Another one of those albums that makes me wonder, who on earth is listening to this? Just a bunch of drum machines.

Decent songs, but the vocals are terrible. Rapid-fire syllables, buried in the mix, with strange enunciation, makes for utterly incomprehensible lyrics.

It’s so refreshing to listen to a band doing something completely unbeholden to prior conventions. This could have easily been another blues rock snore-fest, but the way they focused on riffs and tone gave it a completely unique sound that spawned an entirely new genre. Every member of the band is playing at max capacity on their instrument, and Ozzy’s unique voice is like the cherry on top.

Rated 4/10

I’m sure this was a blast to create, but it’s a chore to listen to. Jam bands should never record.

Rated 2/10

This is another one of these that just confuses me. Who is this for? Who puts on this generic crap and rocks out to it?

PearlJanis Joplin

Rated 6/10

Bobby McGee is an excellent song, obviously, but the other ones all kinda blend together.

DirtySonic Youth

Rated 6/10

Better than the last Sonic Youth album we listened to, but Gen X is still the worst generation for music.

Kid ARadiohead

Rated 6/10

Some interesting stuff going on, but also a lot of the Radiohead staples of boring loops and whining.

My favorite thing I’ve heard from this project so far (about 250 albums). The lyrics are quirky and darkly humorous and poetic and touching. The instrumentations range from folksy guitars to Beatlesque piano to synths, and they’re all incredible. Just brilliant in every way.
