Broken Social Scene - You Forgot It in People
89

Really great, it’s almost reminiscent of Arcade Fire. So many amazing songs here, but “Lover’s Spit” has to be my favorite

Thundercat - Distracted
48

It had a very promising start, but quickly grew annoying and boring to me. I don't think it displays Thundercat's talents as well as it should.

Beach House - Beach House
81

Pretty underrated for Beach House's discography. I really enjoy how this album has a kind of hazy, dreamy, almost lo-fi sound that their later records can't really replicate.

TOOL - Ænima
92

This is on par with Lateralus for me; it’s just amazing. Every actual song here is great, and I don’t really mind the interludes.

Mr. Bungle - California
82

It's all over the place but somehow it still works. Great album

Supertramp - Breakfast in America
83

I've already heard half of these songs without knowing, but this was still a lot better than I expected.

Gustavo Cerati - Siempre es hoy
82

A bit more of a mixed bag compared to Bocanada, but has some of Gustavo Cerati's highest highs.

Exuma - Exuma
85

It's so immersive and the singing on this was amazing. I think a few songs don't match up to the rest but it's a very great listen.

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
89

I prefer the heavier sound of Paranoid, but this is fantastic.

American Football - American Football
58

Didn't really click for me but I can see why people like it.

Agalloch - The Mantle
91

When I think of metal, I don't think of an album like this. It's a very cold and dark album, and the lyrics reflect that really well. I think the instrumentation here is just amazing, and I love how folk is implemented into the album; it conveys such a great winter atmosphere. I even found myself enjoying some of the vocals here, despite not liking black metal vocals all that much. While I don't think this is an everyday listen, I really loved this one.

Boris - Pink
90

It's almost as great as Feedbacker, and the first and last songs are just fantastic.

Unwound - Repetition
90

I really enjoyed this one, although I think I prefer Leaves Turn Inside You. Lady Elect and For Your Entertainment are just amazing. While I'm not the biggest fan of noise rock, I think it was done well here and this album as a whole makes me more interested in post-hardcore and noise rock.

Refused - The Shape of Punk to Come
89

I surprisingly enjoyed this one a lot, despite thinking I wouldn't due to the vocals. This album is high-energy from start to finish but "New Noise" has to be my favorite song here

Sun Kil Moon - Ghosts of the Great Highway
96

Amazing folk rock album. While a lot of the instrumentals are relatively simple and relaxing (which isn't a bad thing), the amazing songwriting helps keep me engaged. "Duk Koo Kim" has to be one of my favorite songs of the 2000s; I always find myself listening to the whole 14 minutes every time it comes on.

Bowery Electric - Beat
80

It definitely started off better than it ended, but I think it's a really cool mix of trip hop and some subtle shoegaze elements. It's also really great to listen to when I'm studying.

Boredoms - Vision Creation Newsun
90

It's a very unique album and most of the songs here are very exciting and energetic. I think it's a great album

Metallica - Master of Puppets
85

While it didn’t make me an instant fan of thrash metal or anything, I definitely think this is a great record and makes me more interested in the metal genre as a whole.

Boris - Boris at Last -Feedbacker-
90

I was a little bored after the first song, but it really picked up from there. Not something I'd really ever listen to casually, but it's really great. Part 3 has to be the best.

Clairo - Charm
79

I really liked this one, even if it made me a bit sleepy by the end.
