MEDIA AKA. WHAT I'VE BEEN DOING INSTEAD OF WORKING
here's where you can see all the things i've been Consuming. a couple of these just link out to the respective tracker site, but a couple of these are massive spreadsheets for one reason or another. probably because i don't like how the bespoke website tracks stuff. if you wanna talk about anything i say or to give reccs or whatever you can email me or leave a message.
| release | artist | opinion | notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| dubnobasswithmyheadman | underworld | 💖 | |
| second toughest in the infants | underworld | 🌟 | |
| 13 | blur | 🌟 | best listened to in a dimly lit room w cockroaches climbing the walls. really deep ache this one has. amazing. |
| blur | blur | 💖 | crazy seeing how smooth of a gradient it is between the purer britpop stuff of parklife down towards 13 + think tank w this album. |
| parklife | blur | 🌟 | the best of the pure britpop era and it's not even close. |
| definitely maybe | oasis | 💖 | took me a while to warm up to it (his singing is. so whiny) but everything that i disliked about it is the entire point and why i love it now. the guitars are just a massive wall of noise which creates these beautiful textures that i find something new in w each listen. it's so catchy and just, gutteral. raw. i love having something this messy. |
| downward spiral | NIN | 🌟 | it's a perfect album. |
| broken | NIN | 🌟 | less perfect but gains insane vibe points for the short film. another piece of foundational sharpie text |
| rubberneck | toadies | 🌟 | captures a burning kind of masculine anger better than anything else i can think of. probably would have changed my life if i heard it when i was 18-19 instead of in my 20s. |
| aquemini | outkast | 🌟 | |
| slim shady lp | eminem | ✅ | |
| 2001 | dr.dre | 💖 | |
| violator | depeche mode | 💖 | |
| homogenic | bjork | 🌟 | sounds like it could have released yesterday. sounds like it's from outerspace. GOD the strings. i 100% believe bjork is one of the best songwriters still alive. |
| love's secret domain | coil | 🌟 |  |
| blue room ep | coldplay | ✅ | it's basically a distilled version of what makes parachutes good. |
| odelay | beck | 💖 | cmon. it's the one! |
| midnite vultures | beck | 🌟 | fuck odelay this is where it's at (ily odelay <3) i think this one has the best "beckese" lines out of anything he's made. i wish i could write songs like this. when producers teach about adding "ear-candy" to tracks listening to this should be considered coursework. |
| OK computer | radiohead | 🌟 | how. how do you make something this perfect. even the b-sides are immaculate what is happening man. |
| pablo honey | radiohead | ❌ | it sucks! :D |
| the bends | radiohead | ✅ | kind of just okay but planet telex and street spirit are so good it makes me grind my teeth. |
| the force | T.M. revolution | ✅ | is got hot limit on it! |
| spiderland | slint | 💖 | fucking awesome. kind of thing i wanna sing at the karaoke arcade bar to scare the fratboys. |
