Bob has kind of become meme on my blog at this point. I’ve told countless people about this album a day thing here, and in the copy and paste blurb communication style that I so love (as all of you know, one of my favorite things in the world is explaining the same thing more

Hello again, motherfuckers. Should I even preface these brief hiatus’s (hiati?) with this greeting anymore? They are becoming much closer to frequent than few and far between. While my output may not be as prolific as that of a man working 12 hours a week – which feels like a distant memory 😦 – I’ll

NYC-based Dance-punk extraordinaire LCD Soundsystem’s 2007 release Sound of Silver mixes elements of house music, punk music, and alternative rock to create this unique album filled with odd, groovy songs. First off, this is totally one of the not for you, but for me (remember there was a variation of that tier for my long

The final edition of Beatles week! Thank you all for tuning in. Beatles week has turned into arguably the longest week in history, spanning well over 2 months, multiple countries and continents. It’s been quite the ride. Often proclaimed as the best of the Beatles, the White Album stood as a bit of a daunting

Solange’s 2016 release A Seat At The Table is all things empowerment and individualism, especially for black women, and it is done through incredibly crafted concepts executed with amazing lyrics, melodies and performances.

One of the few staples of the 90’s neo-soul/R&B (a genre that I love) that I had yet to fully check out was Jill Scott – and she did come through with this album albeit with a few issues along the way. The core of this album is exactly what you would expect from this

Some of you may be surprised that I have never listened to not only this album but anything from The Strokes. However, I don’t expect any surprise in response to my loving this record, given how much alternative rock this blog has featured and praised. This album from the strokes is super fun, groovy, catchy

Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 release Rumours firmly slots in at #2 in the famous albums I had never listened to (Thriller was #1). I had obviously heard many of these songs before – many times through my bedroom wall as a certain reader of my blog belted them in the shower – some of them still

Sting’s 1990 solo project Ten Summoners Tales is much different from all of the Police albums that have been featured on this blog (which is, by the way, all the police albums sans compilations). The bigger songs on this are either melancholic or really out of the box sort of rocky songs – they are
