Evil Cartoon Circus Music

Wordy Rappinghood is basically a declaration of war, but overall this is unhinged in a fun way

Figures its situation out in the back half

the turning point where he stops being the guy from genesis and starts making Peter Gabriel music

Every bit as good as everyone says. I’ve been trying to be a stickler about not listening to albums I know to be on the generator list, and I’m regretting that now. My Bowie education was clearly done a great disservice by getting this later than most of the rest of his stuff on here. The first thing I drew from him on here was "Low!" That's the wrong order!

Got a handful of fun ideas & sounds, wrecked by *terrible* production.

Also wears out its welcome after half an hour; punk bands of the 70s and 80s understood to do your thing and get out after 35 minutes, all these metal groups go on like 3x too long

Incredibly goofy, and I will not rate this below a 5

ok i’m glad I wasn’t just hallucinating that they had at least one good album in their discography

Miserable

Cave at the top of his game

This is a very unfair 1, but it is november 7 2024, what I need is some good wallowing music, and this is doing so poorly at getting the job done that i’m furious with it

Take Spoon Man, leave the rest

So it’s just Radiohead minus some rock, plus some ambient? I’m into it, but I can’t believe that this one’s some big time controversial thing among the fans

There's better versions of this kind of thing out there

Oh they just made Oasis again

So much dedication on this stupid list to drum & bass: the hindmost of electronic music. I’d call it uk bias, but even the uk has better types of electronica

Obviously rating this high because Ella Fitzgerald’s great, but this is kind of a prime example of how the 50s inclusions on this list really stick out as being very different ideas of what an album is and does

Rare nick cave case where the backing music was doing more for me than the vocals

Been getting a lot of long ones in a row… Most of it was pretty good, didn’t care for the saxophone near the end of the thing
