Album Listen #125:
Never been able to connect with GM as a solo artist. He clearly has good vocal range, so you can't say he doesn't have talent - it just doesn't appeal.

Album Listen #126:
I enjoyed album a little bit more than the other one that was in this draft. Still not really my jam - but I enjoyed this one a little bit more.

Album Listen #127: Apart from 'Where Is My Mind' I really don't recognize any of these songs, so this is up in the air for this first time listen. Problem with hearing new albums from the same band - is you can't help but make comparisons and the other album I listened to I thought was considerably better. This album I struggled to connect with at all.

Album Listen #128: Never heard of this at all - but a double disc album will be make or break. Although - I might not know songs to band though if its electronic. I didn't dislike the album - although it felt like background sound to me rather than something I would actively listen to. It had a Lofi feel to it - that I generally see more as study music/number crunching music and don't really relate it to my own personal music joy and was also far to long for what it was.

Album Listen #130: I didn't hate it, but I didn't love it. Was a very 50/50 80s album for me - classic final song, but thats really all that is the standout for me.

Album Listen #131: Was a decent enough album for me - I do prefer Sting later in his career though when he went solo.

Listening to In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida now and it reminded me of the scene from Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare, where it plays. It also reminds of that Simpsons scene where Bart switches out the church hymns for the song and the piano lady passses out before she can finish the song.

You don't like Rosanna? I like that song better than Africa.

Album Listen #132: I didn't mind this album - but the music at times didn't really do anything special for me. Nothing to dislike though

Album Listen #133: Minus some of the industrial sounds - this is perfect. The experimental blemishes though just take it down - but its half marks for me too. Fucking love Gorillaz though!
