Thread: M:R Album Review Topic

Weezer - The Green Album (2001) Who said an album has to be long to be good? No one? Never mind then. Anyways, Weezer (The Green Album) is 30 minutes of fun little power pop ditties, and little more. It's nothing groundbreaking, no album of the decade or anything like that. It does what it sets out to do perfectly well, and that's to make a fun record that anyone can listen to with relative ease. The only thing truly holding this...

Here goes my first review, of one of my favorite albums right now: The Strokes - Is This It? (2001) Oh man. This album is really one of those "I came in to hear one song, and ended up listening to the whole album...twice" albums. Is This It? is a hard-hitting, beautiful and stylish alternative rock album that is certainly among the best of this decade. Is This It? really brings back the sheer...fun of classic rock, and mixes...

Moon Safari - [Blomljud] Modern classically styled symphonic prog album with heavy emphasis on vocal harmonies. Think Beach Boys meets Yes. Some of the most soulful keyboards ever are on this album, and I have honestly never heard an album that matches it in sheer beauty. If you like prog, you absolutely should not miss this spectacular double album. The only thing bad is that when they aren't making songs flow together, they end them...

Boris- Pink (2005) Wow... wow. This album was fantastic. I'd have never pegged myself as a fan of drone/doom metal, but this album was hardly drony or doomy at all. The only thing I'd say is like that is the last nine minutes of Just Abandoned Myself, and that's probably my favorite song on the album. I also really dig the opener, Farewell, which sounds like some sort of awesome post-metal thingamajig. Definitely Jesu-esque....

Great idea, may not use it for my top 20 favorite albums of the decade topic I've been planning though. Unless people would follow that in here?

Really cool topic idea, maybe this can be also used if anyone's wondering how a particular album is and requests that anyone who has it would review it. Also, since I'm doing a Megadeth list, I'll review a random album from them for this topic.
