Reminds me of classic rock radio back in the 90s, where there's song after song of music that isn't bad, but also isn't great. It's fine for the background, but not particularly engaging.

In RainbowsRadiohead

Rated 10/10

My absolute favourite Radiohead album, among several excellent ones. 15 Step is my go-to song for trying out new stereo settings or headphones. Incredible sound, incredible music.

Grew up hearing stuff like this, so it will always be pleasing to the ears. Muddy's got the nicest, deepest blues going!

Talking Heads tick a lot of boxes for the kinds of sounds I enjoy, and in theory I *should* love them, but I don't. No hate either, they're just alright.

Rated 4/10

I don't particularly care for the music, but bonus points for making me realize that yes indeed I DO need a baker.

Wouldn't it be nice to like this more?

I can appreciate that there's a reason it's a highly regarded, classic album, but it just doesn't align all that well with my tastes.

Tried my very best to separate the art from the artist, as about all I know about Morrissey is that he is an absolutely insufferable human being. So all that aside, the music is...alright.

Even all these years later there is still something exciting about listening to these rough, dissonant sounds. The Velvet Underground tapped into something, and it definitely isn't for everyone, but it sure does it for me.
