#923 Giant Sand- Chore of Enchantment

Giant Sand? Weird name for a band, but they are from Arizona. I have never heard of them. Oddly, the band has been recording albums since 1985. Yet, they remain under the radar. Chore of Enchantment is one of their many albums released. “Raw”, “(Well) Dusted (For the Millennium)”, “Shiver”, and “Punishing Sun” were the first […]

#922 Goldfrapp – Felt Mountain

I have seen the name Goldfrapp on music sites, but I have never listened to their music. Felt Mountain is the duos debut album. It was released in 2000, September 11, which makes it 20 years old this year. It is rare when an artist comes along that I am not sure what to do […]

#921 Eminem – The Marshall Mathers LP

Eminem‘s third album The Marshall Mathers LP is the one that I heard quite a few songs from before today. It is the album that made him known to the public. It was a commercial success around the world. I found Eminem interesting when I heard him speak. He was speaking his mind, which I liked. […]

#920 Red Snapper – Our Aim is to Satisfy

Red Snapper is another band which I have never heard of at all. Our Aim is to Satisfy is their third studio album. They are a British instrumental band. This album has strong possibilities of being enjoyable. Songs that I enjoyed were “Keeping Pigs Together” and “Belladonna“. Overall, this album was a busy mess. I did not […]

#919 Mike Ladd – Welcome to the Afterfuture

I have never heard of Mike Ladd. Perhaps his second studio album Welcome to the Afterfuture did not make it abroad to Europe. Oddly, he is now based in Paris, France. I did not hear of him when I lived in Lyon either. I must admit that this album is not as bad as the other […]

#918 Common – Like Water For Chocolate

I have heard of Common and I appreciate the fact that he makes music, but I have never listened to it. Like Water For Chocolate is his fourth studio album, but first major release. I had already hated the album and finished the review when “Geto Heaven Part Two” came on. I liked this one, but […]

#917 Coldplay – Parachutes

Coldplay is the band that brought me out of my spiritual journey. I accidentally heard one of their songs somewhere and I wanted more. It was their debut album Parachutes that drew me in and the song was “Yellow“. I really do not need to listen to this album to score it, but I will because […]

#916 Erykah Badu – Mama’s Gun

If your name is Erica, then why would you change it to Erykah? That is what the artist known as Erykah Badu did. Sorry, but that is just dumb. Mama’s Gun is Badu’s second studio album. I have not listened to this album. I grew up with soul music, but I seemed to lost a […]

#915 PJ Harvey – Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea

Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea is PJ Harvey’s third album on the list of 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. I liked second album To Bring You My Love better than the first one Rid of Me on the list; I even gave it an 8. Harvey released her fifth studio album about […]

#914 Badly Drawn Boy – The Hour of Bewilderbeast

Badly Drawn Boy is an artist I have listened to in the past. I have listened to his debut album The Hour of Bewilderbeast a few times. He scored the soundtrack for the film About A Boy, which is another album I liked. I think he is underrated. I forget to listen to him too. “Pissing […]
