High energy teen punk album, that set the template for 90s punk-rock. Tricky album to recommend this one, as sonically it hasnt aged and sounds great and songs are really catchy but some of the lyrics havent aged well at all....
I don’t tend to delve into Machine Head too much, but after picking up a copy of The Blackening the other week I pulled this one out of the collection....
Literally pulled this one out of the collection today. This has to be the most singular chillout album in the collection. Good to come back to on the odd occasion....
Of the three Massive Attack albums from the 90s this is the one I'd rank as the classic, pushing in a more menacing direction than the more upbeat and relaxed Blue Lines [1991] or Protection [1994]. Its strong throughout (Man Next Door, Group Four etc)...
In the early 90s, where grunge and eurodance were all the rage, the Finnish psychedelic rock band Kingston Wall really stood out with its sound. The sound was considered retro at the time, and it drew from 60s-70s psychedelic rock, hard rock, prog and Middle Eastern music. This album really showed a more refined sound compared...
Not quite sure what to class the album as in terms of genre. It’s no longer drone along the lines of Earth2 but is still very slow tempo music that is quite happy to take its time. A good album to throw on and be transported somewhere else, and my favourite of the Earth albums I’ve heard so far....
This is one of those albums with an interesting history. The band deciding to release an album with single one-hour track, a departure from their previous album Holy Mountain which contained a series of shorter individual songs....
Pulled this out of the collection today - as much as the debut could also be considered a classic this is the one where they added the additional polish and released a great set of tracks from start to finish. This is arguably one of the album releases that sent 80s hair-metal to the grave....
A recommendation engine brought me back to this album an genre that I hadn’t heard in years since drum and bass at a time that the style was in the public eye partly due to this album....
There are a number of great albums in the Ween discography but this one is the classic, wrapping Gene and Dean Weens eclectic style in a nautically themed album....
Not a fan or have a great knowledge of 70s rock music or the bands, but this is a pretty kick ass debut album. Sonically is sound great with the story being it was recorded in Tom Schloz’s own basement with him playing most of the instruments. The vocalist is a great fit....
