Nonagon Infinity – King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard
King Gizzard has continued to prove to be one of, if not the most versatile band currently putting out music. Contrasting this to their most recent (and soon to be reviewed) album, you would think that they were created by totally different bands. This album is atmospheric, psychedelic rock, and it’s really fucking good. Their Continue reading

Floating Coffin – Thee Oh Sees (or Osees)
Another crack at Spotify’s psych rock mix was the 2013 release Floating Coffin from band I had never heard of, Thee Oh Sees. No beating around the bush here – this one was a bit uninspiring for me. There were certainly some good psych (and just general alternative rock) songs on this, however I often Continue reading

Disraeli Gears – Cream
Cream, better known as Eric Clapton’s first big band, or the guys that did Sunshine of Your Love – which may be my leading pick for “oh shit, that’s a ____ song?” (there’s been a few with Zeppelin – proving my lack of music knowledge. Don’t take this blog as a show of my expertise Continue reading

Goo – Sonic Youth
80’s/90’s rock/punk/pop-punk/noise band Sonic Youth has been a band that I felt like I had heard of but never really checked out. While this release is certainly not mind-blowing to me, it does inspire me to check out more of their shit, especially with this being (I believe?) their sort of more pop-grabby album, much Continue reading

Can’t Buy A Thrill – Steely Dan
This review has been sitting in here for a while. Full disclosure, and I can’t believe I’m typing this but I don’t always listen to albums in the month that they’re posted There, I said it. I listened to this album in the beginning of May. Anyways, it’s been sitting in the queue for a Continue reading

But Here We Are – Foo Fighters
Thank you, Dave Grohl, once again. This album had a lot leading up to it, and honestly I wasn’t sure if it would ever come out. I admire Dave Grohl greatly – not just for his musical ability but for being someone who views life in an incredibly positive, emotionally intelligent way, and has dealt Continue reading

Street Worms – Viagra Boys
A re listen to an amazing punk/rock album from one of the strangest but best bands currently out. If you do not know the V boys, they are a Swedish band that got an initial pop from their Cake like song ‘Sports’ which contains some of the better lines you’ll hear, including: BaseballBasketballWeiner dogShort shortsCigaretteSurf Continue reading

Led Zeppelin II – Led Zeppelin
Zeppelin’s discography is pleasantly surprising me. To some, that may come off as a completely idiotic statement – but remember I am biased towards funk, R&B, etc. Or at least that’s what I think. This album is fantastic. I think it might be Zeppelin at it’s best – though I do plan to continue to Continue reading

Ten – Pearl Jam
FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-ZEEEEEHHHHHHNNNN. If you have been around me for more than a few minutes in the last year or so, I’ve at least attempted to do my Eddie Vedder impression. If you’ve been around me for lots of time in the last year or so, you are most likely incredibly tired of hearing my Eddie Vedder Continue reading

Houses of the Holy – Led Zeppelin
The first Zep to reach this blog – thank you Liam for sending me one of the songs on this and inspiring me to complete a task that had been on my list of things to listen to. One of my main reasons for doing this album mission was, aside from expanding my taste in Continue reading
