Just focused on the songs in the original EP instead of the entire deluxe album on Spotify. I have never really listened to Mudhoney before and I really enjoyed this. Energetic rock and roll/grunge. Not sure why I didn't listen to them in high school because I feel like I would have really loved it then. Going to give them a bonus star for being local. Full marks!

Well that was weird. I am not sure it was music. Artistic? Perhaps. It veered toward something I'd describe as music a few times. For the novelty alone I'll bump it up a star, but that's all I can do.

Rated 8/10

Roundabout is an absolute monster of an opening track. They never quite got up to that level again. A few of the instrumental interludes were too discordant for my tastes to go full marks.

Wow, back to back Public Enemy. This one did not grab me as much as "It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back". Tracks like calling into the radio station took me out of it. Overall still pretty good though.

I really liked the first handful of tracks, but then it got a little raunchy for my middle-aged prudish tastes. Still when it wasn't making me uncomfortable I did quite enjoy it.

This one just didn't click with me. Nothing bad per se, but it just felt a bit much. A little too frenetic, a little too over the top.

I didn't recognize as many of these songs as I did off Neon Bible which we had last week. But it was still very enjoyable all the way through.

AqualungJethro Tull

Rated 8/10

There is a flute. It is wonderful. The rest of the music is pretty good as well.

OdelayBeck

Rated 8/10

What a fun album. I love the quirkiness of Beck and it is on full display and the music is just downright catchy..

Another band that I knew was popular and was sure I had heard their music, but could not associate any songs with. I did recognize many of these songs and quite enjoyed the entire album.

In UteroNirvana

Rated 8/10

I don't believe I have ever listened to an entire Nirvana album before (not counting the Unplugged album from earlier on this list). I thought this was going to be an easy 5 stars but a couple of the early tracks are just too grating. Not sure I can give them less than a 4 though, so here you go.
