Solid sound throughout, but somehow not very memorable. Standouts are Pyramids, Bad Religion, and the Street Fighter startup music

nice coke jingle reference i guess

Definitely gonna be a candidate for my favorite album on the entire list

I liked it but I feel like it would’ve overstayed its welcome if it was much longer

Fun and charming. Love the medleys and the Italian bits

really clever. strong writing but a little inconsistent

I have been so thankful for the countless albums I’ve discovered through this project that I probably never would’ve run into before. Then there’s some discoveries like Iggy Pop that I wish had remained undiscovered

Don't fully understand it but there's definitely something here. Will definitely revisit.

I remember being a little kid and always asking my parents to check out a kids "world music" CD (maybe Putumayo) and it had Three Little Birds on it - that's the only one I remember, but I would always want to listen to that one.

Gave up on listening to this a couple of times because of the weaker beginning, but there's a lot of meat in the latter half. Obviously some big hits, but I also really like the more R&B/pop inspired songs too.

Therapist: Leonard "synth" Cohen can't hurt you, he's not real

not very good but at least it's not in english

Not as consistently good as Dookie, but still classic

I've had to sit through so much mediocre synth shit on this project so far and this is just leagues ahead of all the others

Nice Hitchcock shoutout lol

Really not into his voice, but the instrumentals are compelling. Definitely benefits from the wall of sound treatment.

actually not bad considering it's apparently my least favorite genre or whatever

Pretty hit or miss. Not big on his voice but the instruments kind of make up for it. Idk, I really like the sound but no one song really seems to work.

Really special. Some unexpected covers and classics as well - I think the modern ones are the most effective but will never scoff at anyone paying tribute to the Eagles. A few songs towards the end lost my interest, and Nick Cave’s weird attempt completely took me out of the mood.

Absolutely incredible, especially the first half. Didn't think at all that it would be better than Post but holy shit. Love the celeste and harp and production.

Kinda reminds me of The The but more new wave-y. And not as good lol. But the jazz shit is great.
