BugDinosaur Jr.

Rated 4/10

Freak scene started ok, but by the second song I'm wondering why the dude has to sing like this?
Don't was just pure noise.
2*

RemedyBasement Jaxx

Rated 4/10

A lot seemed to be missing *something*; boring and uninteresting. 2*
The album cover and "same old show" felt very inappropriate to have at work, had to skip.
Highlights: red alert

Everyone loves to hate limp bizkit, but I grew up with this trash. These are gonna be nostalgia ratings. It hasn’t aged well, feels like Bush-era music, and I wouldn’t like it if I heard it fresh now. For nostalgia alone: 4*, otherwise a 1*.
So edgy, he says fuck so much!
Highlights: my way, rollin, my generation, take a look around

In the context of hip hop of its time, this is catchy as hell and super goofy, a good time. 5*
Highlights: no sleep till brooklyn, fight for your right, brass monkey

2 hours?! Proto-grunge is very punk adjacent. I've heard of these guys in the context of Nirvana/Soundgarden/the Seattle grunge scene, but this is not for me, I prefer the grunge that comes after this band. 2*, got the gist after 1 disc.

Take indie, but make it boring with lyrics that come from people that may only know about California from TV shows.
Nothing outstanding, why is this here, etc. 2*
Highlight: til the tide creeps in (the harmonica got me)

This is the 2nd Eminem album in the past week, and I expect this one to be worse than his 2nd album. A lot is very amateur, the skits are not fun(ny), his later albums are much better. The talent is there, but the content hasn't aged well, 1*
Highlights: my name is

It started out so funky and immediately lost me when he started singing. WTF are these lyrics?

I bet it was certified platinum only because it was "edgy" and "raunchy" like how the Bloodhound Gang was in the early 00s. This is super british humor.

2*: gets a +1 because of instrumentals. Actually, fuck it, 1*, the tracks got generic after a while. The last handful of tracks I had to just skip toward the end because it was just belligerent noise. Again, total garbage I didn't need before dying.

Peak alternative music era, life was so full of hope. I was worried about opening on a banger/their biggest song but it just kept slapping. Should have listened to this full album before. Just good vibes. 5*
Highlights: the mother we share, tether, recover

The IdiotIggy Pop

Rated 2/10

Meh, just kinda droned and was not very enjoyable. Just because it's AN album from a famous artist doesn't mean it belongs here. 1*

That this album was so controversial so as to go in front of congress is quaint in this day and age. Skits are always stupid af. Kim made me incredibly physically uncomfortable. Some good songs, 4*
Highlights: stan (probably the first fucked up song I heard as a tween in the early 00s), the way that i am, real slim shady

Rated 4/10

Did not need to listen to this before I died, it's boring and generic. Just another entry that adds nothing to the musical repertoire. 2*
