http://musiccouldbebetter.blogspot.com/2022/10/thank.html

i'm not a fan
every song kind of sucks
every song is twice as long as it needs to be
the santana experience

flame-sky would have been good without the bell section (it really didn't need to be 11 minutes long)

21 Oct 2022: Manowar/"Into Glory Ride" (1983)
http://musiccouldbebetter.blogspot.com/2022/10/witty-retordt_21.html

i love it when the first 45 seconds of an album are dumb bullshit

22 Oct 2022: Arctic Monkeys/"The Car" (2022)
http://musiccouldbebetter.blogspot.com/2022/10/witty-retordt_22.html

after two really bad albums in a row, can the boys redeem themselves? i doubt it but let's see anyway
i have no idea what drugs these guys have been on for the last decade, but they are the most boring drugs in existence
it's better than tranquility base but that's not very hard is it

there's a cover of bark at the moon here but like
why
ozzy is one of a kind
a straight cover of one of his songs is doomed to fail

the band had one good song (the title track) but had to make an album

why would you start with kitty
you have lump, you have peaches, you have body, you have twelve songs that aren't kitty
hell, we all know the album should have started with fuck california rather than relegating it to a bonus track

it's a competent, average representation of its genre

04 Nov 2022: Voivod/"Nothingface" (1989)
http://musiccouldbebetter.blogspot.com/2022/11/witty-retordt_4.html
