Reviews by michaewaratealbums

Some groovy parts, but it wasn't high on the musicality scale for me. It seemed to go downhill pretty quickly after the first couple songs, not bad ambient / background music but didn't blow me away.

I like Neil, this album was decent but never grabbed ahold of me. I wouldn't mind revisiting it at some point but it wasn't like I couldn't wait to hear it again. This may be the worst review I have ever written.

I liked it - not as much as the Arctic Monkeys, but fairly listenable. Nothing really jumped out to me as very memorable, I'm not sure if I'll be back. 3.5

Hey, I liked it. A little dated maybe, but so inspiring that these two went from working at a pet shop to being a global musical sensation. 3.9

This one had an outsized impact on me. All the feels.

Is that vibrado? I'm not sure how to describe the vocal stylie, I thought it would get old but it didn't bother me that much. This was a wild ride, enjoyable even without the worn out hit.
Came back for a second listen!
3.8

Can't stand the voice. Actively dislike the voice. Is milquetoast the right word here?

I had Crocodiles by Echo and the Bunnymen yesterday, didn't like it that much. Listened to today's album, now I love Crocodiles - perspective is everything.

I like the band a lot, this particular release did not crank my turn. To be fair my spouse stole my Spotify connection about 3 sounds in, I did not protest.

Is the Jethro Tull sounding thing a vocoder? Didn't love that. I'm not in a great mood while listening, going to take a walk and come back for another listen.

I didn't I trust y'alls judgement.

Pretty good, I didn't love it but well constructed and pretty listenable. 3.5

I listened with my spouse who doesn't tolerate strange like I do. At the end I said "there is 30 minutes you'll never get back" to which she replied "I don't want it back." Harsh.
I kinda liked it, can't believe they were bringing it like this in the 70s. Hat tip to Nick and his laser noises while playing hockey.

Love me some Bob Marley. For a while in high school Legend was my personality. Never had listened to this one all the way through, nice work team. Lively Up Yourself is a banger, love it.

Synth. Pop. Drum machine. Not terribly interesting. I always wonder when a band makes an album like this with an obvious giraffe do they know? Do they care?

Ok, didn't love it. Lot of subvocal moaning that was a tad distracting.

Couldn't find it on streaming so I cannot comment. I listened to some other music by The Band instead.

Dark and moody just like it should be. Hadn't listened to this one all the way through, quite like it. Good on you, list!

Loved it. This list is on a roll. Never heard of or heard this before but really enjoyed the whole thing. 4.5.

What a time this was. Living in Chicago, dealing with the outcome of bad decisions and fundamental changes in my world. This album was the soundtrack to growing up in a fundamental way. Changed me and changed my understanding of music.

I liked it, not sure how I never heard it before. Nothing I could really sink my teeth in to but a fun listen.

Could I find this on streaming? No. Did I have a friend named Grant with a Mazda MX6 and a Sony discman with cassette adapter? Yes.
Is this any good? I don't know, kinda? Nostalgia points for moo moo land fer sure. Is that Dolly Parton? Wtf
