King Crimson - Discipline
90

I like this a lot, it's like Talking Heads but listenable and the overindulgent trademark King Crimson instruments are still here. Very accessible. I might actually recommend it to someone new to the band over ITCOTK.

Slowdive - Souvlaki
100

I don't know how I hate MBV's Loveless so much but like this so much.

Gang of Four - Entertainment!
90

Very very underrated

Emily Montes - Emily Montes
NR

postmodernist masterpiece

Talking Heads - Fear of Music
80

I don't know what to make of Talking Heads, they sound nothing like ANY other artists I've heard. The vocalist is so weird on some songs that he borders on being terrible but I guess that's the appeal? It's almost post / prog rocky how they make the instruments that repeat over and over so prevalent in the sound, even though they use synths and very funky guitars.

OutKast - Skew It on the Bar-B
100

Raekwon's verse is honestly one of my all-time favorites.

Daughters - Daughters
70

Even more crushing than YWGWYW, yet less cathartic, interesting, or meaningful.

The Caretaker - Everywhere at the end of time
60

It does a perfect job portraying what dementia is like. The actual tracks, you know, the music, itself is middling. You couldn't really expect anything else from a 6.5 hr long album. This would have to be the best album in history to have a 92 over six hours if not for the concept.

70

It's really hard to judge an EP with only two tracks. Glenn shows all its cards too early but Rhoda is more punishing than anything on Spiderland.

80

I like the vocals, I like the instrumentals. Adding more variety would have gone a long way. The female vocals on the opening of 'Rooster' are a great example, but moments like that are too far between for this record to be truly great to me.

Swans - Soundtracks for the Blind
90

I respect the ambition much more than I like some of the songs. Relistening to the album really shows how underwhelming some songs like Volcano are. The last 2-3 songs in particular are just nothing to me, they almost made this album an 8.

Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP
80

Calling this your favorite rap album is like calling 'Remain In Light' your favorite rock album, both are good but there are much better albums if you delve deeper into each respective genre.

Nirvana - Come as You Are
100

Nirvana is very hit or miss for me, but when they hit...

Swans - Love Will Tear Us Apart
80

GIra's vocals are good, the instruments are good. Helps that I'm a fanboy of the original. The Jarboe (Red) version is a 4 for me tho.

Tom MacDonald - Straight White Male
0

He has the song's title on the cover the same number of times as its rating. LOL.

Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon
80

About 10 minutes until you get a ""standard"" rock verse on 'Time'. This album is mysterious but not in an engaging way that makes me want to relisten to it five times.

Eminem - Godzilla
60

Alternate Title: Eminem gets humiliated by Juice WRLD on his own track for just a little over four minutes.

Trippie Redd - Spooky Sounds
0

more like shitty sounds HAH GOTEM

David Bowie - Low
100

For some reason I always confuse 'Warszawa' with 'Elegia' by New Order, anyway, this is the best album I've ever listened to.
