★David Bowie

Rated 4/10

Bowie songs are always hit or miss for me. I’m normally a lyrics person, but being classically trained in music theory I notice when things don’t exactly fit the “norm.”
Overall, the long minutes with a pre-made beat from GarageBand and various instruments going all over the place was a miss on this album.
Dollar Days is the only song I would willingly give a second listen.

Everyday People - I finally figured out the song my mom used to sing when I was child with the “Scooby-Dooby-Dooby” part.

Overall, this is a fun album and I know it was a huge influence for so many musicians to come.

This is right up my alley, nostalgic indie lo-fi rock with a hint of grunge.
Time to listen to Sebadoh’s whole discography…

I don’t know a single word of Icelandic but this band’s music always sends me on an emotional journey.
Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust was frequently on repeat during my college years, but this is my first time listening to Ágætis Byrjun. I’m so glad I took the time to hear it.
