#880 Boards of Canada – Music Has the Right to Children

Finally, Boards of Canada has made the list. Unfortunately, I do not think I know their debut album Music Has the Right to Children. My knowledge of them came in the 2000s. I am grateful to Spotify. We can now stream all this music and have to take a change with buying the album. This […]

#879 Kid Rock – Devil Without a Cause

I have heard of Kid Rock. The only thing I know about him is that he is some kind of redneck. He released his fourth album Devil Without a Cause in 1998. He received more commercial and critical acclaim. He refined his sound using rap metal, hard rock, nu metal, and rap rock sound, while leaving […]

#878 Khaled – Kenza

I have no idea who Khaled is or was. There seems to be a few rappers/singers with a name similar to this, but I am not sure if it is the same person. The album Kenza is named after Khaled’s second daughter. The genre is Raï, which is Algerian folk music. I will probably hate […]

#877 Korn – Follow the Leader

Korn is another band I have heard of, but I never took the time to listen to their music. If you remember from my other reviews I was on a journey from 1996 until 2000. I stopped listening to the radio. I went on a spiritual quest. I missed out on a lot of music […]

#876 Talvin Singh – OK

OK from record producer Talvin Singh was released toward the end of 1998. He is known for working with Madonna, Massive Attack, Björk, and many others. His music infuses Indian classical with techno. I have never heard of him. I am not a fan of Indian music. I don’t hate it; I just rather not listen […]

#875 Air – Moon Safari

French and electronic sounds incredible. Air, a French duo, released their debut album Moon Safari in 1998. I know I listened to them at some point in their career, but I do not remember which album. When I heard “Sexy Boy” I knew I had this album. I remembered that song from long ago. I […]

#874 Queens Of The Stone Age – Queens Of The Stone Age

Two albums in a row that are self-titled debut albums. Last post was System of a Down, which I did not care for and today is Queens Of The Stone Age. I have not heard their music. I noticed it is labeled as stoner rock. I thought all rock was stoner rock. I would not […]

#873 System Of A Down – System Of A Down

System Of A Down released their eponymous debut album in 1998. I have never heard it, but I have heard of them. I can tell you now, I will not like it. I am not a big fan of heavy metal, but I do sometimes like light metal. Overall, I did not hate the music. […]

#872 Mercury Rev – Deserter’s Songs

Mercury Rev? I have never heard anything from them, at least I believe that is true. They released their fourth album Deserter’s Songs in 1998. The band expected it to be their last one, but as chance would have it their fate changed. They found fame mostly in the UK and Europe, and a small […]

#871 Hole – Celebrity Skin

Hole is a band that I really enjoyed in the early 90s. Unfortunately, their third album Celebrity Skin was released during my time away from music so i completely missed it. The album was a critical and commercial success for the band. Courtney Love proved that she could make great music without Kurt Cobain. My […]
