I didn’t hate this. But it didn’t really keep my attention for the most part.

This was never my favorite David Bowie album but as I get older, I like it more every time I listen to it. I could do without the “Across The Universe” cover though.

Not wholly unpleasant but also not particularly inspiring and got annoying after awhile.

Another laid back masterpiece, a refinement on their first record.

I’m with drugs in this one.

This is nice if culturally exploitative.

Bleh

The absolute pinnacle of synth pop.

The groove is irresistible and the message is inspirational no matter how many times I hear it.

Post-punk could’ve ended after Joy Division. Doesn’t get better than this.

“World Music” is an idiotic term born of Western ignorance and ethnocentrism. However, in the case if this gorgeous mosaic of a record, it’s entirely appropriate.

I greatly enjoy a lot of this (mostly the tracks with the female singer.) Some of it is a but too goofy sounding but it’s psychedelic music so that comes with the territory.

Dazzlingly masterful folk rock songwriting and production.

I enjoy later Beasties more than this one but it is a major achievement. O wonder how many records from this list are sampled on it.

This is Harvey’s most typically 90s alternative rock album but it’s wonderful nonetheless.

More Neil Young. Cool.

“Metal” made safe for the masses through masterfully crafted pop songs. And they’re all here.

I just happened to get this one on actual Christmas! How serendipitous! I wouldn’t have wanted to listen to it any other day.
