-----------------------------------------------------

Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge (2004)

rating - ★★★★★

fav track - You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison

fav lyrics - 'from the razor to the rosary / we can lose ourselves'

i got this cd like over two years ago so i dont remember where i bought it from but its the first cd i ever bought and i love is so so much. every song on the album is special and literally nothing i say will explain how much this album has done 4 me lol. three cheers for sweet revenge has helped me cope with so much.

prison was my favourite song for like a year and a half its tooo catchy, i still go feral every time i hear it. it's not the only fucking banger on the album though because literally every single on on the album makes me want to get up and bust a motherfucking move... apart from the ghost of you and cemetery drive, they make me sob. in a good way.


I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love (2002)


rating - ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

fav track - Demolition Lovers

fav lyrics - 'all we are is bullets'

this is my fav album of all time. it singlehandedly pulled me out of depression, cured my addictions and gave me a reason to live tbh. i had to buy this CD second hand on worldofbooks because its out of print and kind of rare, so its honestly my prized possession. for two years i didnt listen to bullets, but when i first listened to early sunsets over monroeville i was obsessed and i listened to the whole album. i love how different and raw it sounds compared to the rest of their discography and like three cheers, every single song has a meaning that i connect with. this album is amazing to listen to when ur angry or depressed because its SO cathartic !!!

Demolition Lovers is my favourite song of All Time and no matter how much i listen to it i swear i will never get tired of it. my other fav songs on the album are vampires will never hurt you, early sunsets, headfirst for halos, honey this mirror isnt big enough for the two of us, and our lady of sorrows. i did just name like half the album but its all so good.. anyway


In Utero (1993)


rating - ★★★★★

fav track - Dumb

fav lyrics - 'i miss the comfort in being sad'

my friend bought me this cd in hmv for my bday and tbh i love her for it!!!!! In Utero is so amazing, definitely the best nirvana album imo. before i got this cd the only In Utero song i listened to was heart-shaped box and i was MISSING OUTTT. listening to this album for the first time my main thought was just 'kurt cobain gets it' because he does. kurt gets it. thats basically it for this one, if u havent listened what r u doing its literally nirvana !!!!

 

Collide With The Sky (2012)



rating - ★★★★

fav track - A Match Into Water

fav lyrics - 'this is just me, disguised as me'

this is the second cd i ever got !!! like three cheers i got it like two years ago so i have no idea where i got it but it was probably online somwhere. this album started it all for me (it all meaning being an emo lmao), the first emo song i ever properly listened to was a match into water and i was OBSESSED so i bought the cd. i included two photos because i think i got some different version which came with the this is a wasteland video diary. it also has a booklet thing with the lyrics and photos from the tour which is supa kewl..

apart from a match into water, im low on gas and you need a jacket, hold on til may and may these noises/hell above are my fav songs on the album. each song means so much to me i love them all like children


Around The Fur (1997)


rating - ★★★★

fav track - Dai the Flu

fav lyrics - 'i try and look up to the sky / but my eyes burn'

i bought this cd in hmv because i LOVE this album, it introduced me to deftones and all their amazing music. listening to around the fur is a release of emotion from beginning to end, its angry, raw and energised. opening with my own summer (shove it) is perfect, it gets you so pumped and is the perfect introduction to what the whole album is.

Dai the Flu is THE MOST satisfying song to listen to idk what it is about that god forsaken song but its just so nice to listen to. Be Quiet and Drive (Far Aaway) is also an amazing song, its so beautiful i pretty much levitate every time i hear it.


Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys (2010)

rating - ★★★★

fav track - Save Yourself, I'll Hold Them Back

fav lyrics - 'get off the ledge and drop the knife / not a victim of a victim's life'

this is another cd another on of my friends got me for christmas!!1 i only listened to this album for the first time this year and i cant BELIEVE i refused to listen to it before cuz its so amazing, every song has good parts even if some of them (just sing) are kinda boring. the first time i listened to danger days i was flabbergasted its so high energy and the lyrics are soooo goood. i only rated this four stars cuz some songs just dont hit as hard (sing).

save yourself is my fav track because the lyrics are perfect and the INTRO is too good. who let them write such a cool intro. the transition from look alive, sunshine to nanananana is FANTASTIC truly spectacular. even though i kinda hate sing it is undeniable that its got one of the best bridges ever, the bridge is so cool. my other favs from the album are vampire money and party poison !


Never Mind The Bollocks, Here's The Sex Pistols (1977)


rating - ★★★★

fav track - Anarchy In The UK

fav lyrics - 'it's too much fun being alive'

never mind the bollocks is so iconic i cant say anything to do it justice. i only took away one star cuz when ur listening to the whole album it gets a bit repetitive. i dont listen to this cd that much for that reason, but when ur in the mood to listen to some punk its perfect obviously. im pretty sure i just bought this in hmv with my lunch money 

anarchy in the UK and god save the queen are the best songs on the album and definitely the most popular, but submission and pretty vacant are two other standout songs.


This Is Why (2023) 

 

rating - ★★★★★

fav track - Crave

fav lyrics - 'i know that regression is rarely rewarded / i still need a certain degree of disorder'

I KNEWWW when this is why and the news were released that this was going to be an amazing album. every single song is so catchy. i bought this in hmv in edinburgh the day it was released and i got the only copy they had!!! thank god. i love that every song has energetic powerful moments + also has space for calmer moments too. hayleys voice is perfect as always ^_^

my fav song is crave but honestly its a tie between the news, thick skull and crave. thick skull is one of those songs that goes from simple to an explosion of sound and i cant get enough of it i swear to god. it also makes me feel nostalgic?? idk. its the perfect album closer. crave is my fav cuz its the most relatable and its just good musically like ugh hayleys vocals i cant. the news was released at a PERFECT time, when most of my days were spent worrying about the state of the world which is pretty much what the song is about lmao. i could go on about what i love about every song on the album but it would be too long and no one cares so im going to stop there loll


Disintegration (1989)


rating - ★★★★★

fav track - Lovesong

fav lyrics - 'i'll pull out my heart and i'll feed it to anyone'

ive listened to the cure but i never reallyy got into them until i listened to this album. someting about it is so enchanting... idk how else to explain it. some songs are just walls of beautiful sound and some are simple but pretty. ive wanted this cd for a while and i got it for christmas :O but i was with my mum when she bought it lmao

my three fav tracks are lovesong, lullaby and plainsong. i actually used to not like lullaby until i read the lyrics and now its one of my favourite songs. not even because of the lyrics something just changed when i understood them and the whole vibe of the song was different. lovesong is one of the most beautiful love songs ever and the guitar solo is intoxicating. i love how gloomy + depressing the whole album is its perfect to listen to when i feel like shit


Souvlaki (1993)


rating - ★★★★★

fav track - When The Sun Hits

fav lyrics - 'she laughs and tells me she's just fine'

souvlakiii.... where do i even start . this album is probably one of my favs ever. the whole vibe is so ethereal and dreamy, listening to souvlaki feels like watching the earth from space. and you cant tell me 'souvlaki space station' or 'when the sun hits' would not sound AMAZING in space. this is another one of the cds i got for christmas (its well known by everyone that i love cds, so i got a lot of them as presents) and ive listened to it so much since then. it really helps me focus.

my fav track (and second fav of all time, behind demolition lovers) is when the sun hits because why wouldnt it be. its euphoric and melancholy at the same time, the simple guitar at the beginning really doesnt prepare you for the beautiful explosion of sound that hits (get it) at the chorus, and overall its just amazing. other highlights are souvlaki space station, again starting simple and crashing in, and dagger, which stays simple but is just as effective. i have to stop there cuz if i talked about all the songs it would take up half the blog so just listen to the album. its worth it.


A Fever You Can't Sweat Out (2005)


rating - ★★★★★

fav track - Nails For Breakfast, Tacks For Snacks

fav lyrics - 'cant take the kid from the fight, take the fight from the kid'

im trying not to rate every single one of these 5/5 stars but how can i not. i swear to god they put drugs in the album its so fucking good. like wtf. there is not ONE bad song on this entire album. even the piano in intermission makes me dance. this cd is another one i bought in hmv with my lunch money (its a bad habit) .i first listened to i write sins not tragedies a few years ago like agessss ago and since then ive listened to more and more and not one single song disappointed me. its also so fun to sing along to idk if thats just me? but overall just soo good.

although sins was the first song i listened to from this album camisado is the one that reallyy got me into it and got me to buy the cd. and omg im so glad i did. i hadnt listened to like half the album before tha and i was MISSING OUTT. like how could i not have listened to time to dance, nails for breakfast or london beckoned before???? insane. so yeah my main recs from this album are nails for breakfast, tacks for snacks,  time to dance, camisado and build god then we'll talk. even though it took me three years to realise it, this album is perfect and it has a special place in my heart.


i will update this blog w more cds but there are too many to do so it might take a while @_@
