Giving this a 1 or 2 is crazy. At worst, this album is just fine. I loved it though. Could definitely see myself throwing it on again.

Favorite Songs: Stop Dem, Bow, Monsters, Miracles, Hold Me

Ray of LightMadonna

Rated 10/10

One of the best albums from the Queen of Pop. Different from her other stuff, but still great.

Side note: The fact that Madonna only has two albums on this list is criminal. And one of the two is Music?! True Blue? Confessions on a Dance Floor?

Favorite Songs: Ray of Light, Shanti, Frozen, To Have and Not to Hold

I hate how much I liked this. The guitar is killing it throughout, and I kind of love how British this is. The lyrics are a crime, but I think they're kind of fun.

Favorite Songs: Wake Up and Make Love with Me, If I Was With a Woman, Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll

Basically just feels like an early Beatles album. It's fine, and there are some good hooks here, but not much feels all that unique.

Favorite Song: Oo You, Maybe I'm Amazed

SmashThe Offspring

Rated 6/10

Nothing wrong with this album, but this is pretty run of the mill punk music. Not for me

Favorite Song: Come Out and Play

I don't know how often I'll come back to it, but this album was awesome. So different to everything else on this list, and Adamson did such a good job creating a story with his music that I could clearly picture the events taking place throughout the album. Watching a movie entirely with music is a pretty unique experience and I love that this is on the list.

Favorite Songs: Sounds From the Big House, Suck on the Honey of Love, The Man with the Golden Arm

Shocked at how bad this is. I like this style of Hip Hop, but this is not it. I think it's a combination of boring rhymes and a forced flow. I think I'd like it more without the rapping

An amazing album. Not a single song on here not worth listening to. Easily one of Cohen's best albums.

Favorite Songs: Suzanne, Master Song, So Long Marianne, Hey That's No Way to Say Goodbye

Rated 8/10

Very 80's, in a great way. Great way to start the day. I think I have to be in a specific mood to want to come back and listen to this, but it'll definitely be a good time anytime I do.

Favorite Songs: Rio, Hungry Like the Wolf, Lonely in Your Nightmare

Pretty fine album, with only one track standing out. Don't really think this should be on the list, but getting way more hate than it deserves

Favorite Song: Bad Liquor

Saw like 10 copies of this at the record store I was at while this was my album of the day. Very fun, but doubt I'll relisten for much beyond Pusherman

Oh this is FUN. Can see why this style of music isn't replicated often, but such a cool experiment. Really I just love anything that sounds Jazzy

Favorite Song: You've Made Me So Very Happy
