Big Willie Style - Will Smith (1997)

Do the asinine interludes add to or detract from this?  I just can't decide.  5/10.

Vehicles and Animals - Athelte (2003)

Simultaneously stands head and shoulders above contemporaneous albums and yet lacks a vital something also.  6/10.

Woodface - Crowded House (1991)

Just like your favourite pair of slippers, in a nice way.  8/10.

Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me - The Cure (1987)

No.  2/10.

Alles wieder offen - Einstürzende Neubauten (2007)

Tamer than previous aural assaults and all the better for it.  8/10.

Buffalo Springfield - Buffalo Springfield (1966)

From here it was clear two stars were born, one to become an asshole, the other a legend.  7/10.

Life thru a Lens - Robbie Williams (1997)

Faltering teen dream is hoisted back on the rails and begins ascendency.  7/10.

Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends - Coldplay (2008)

A cultured trip up Chris Martin's arse.  6/10.

Hot Boxing - Magnapop (1994)

Indifferent, hum drum attempt to recapture earlier sparkle.  5/10.
