Fun listening to albums in context / with the mini-reviews for each album.

Didn't have an opinion on drum'n'bass before this book, but good God.... I never want to hear it again. The late 1990's were a trudge. If I wanted to hear hours upon hours of uhn-tiss-uhn-tiss-boom-boom-tish I would go to a rave. For some reason, it was less fun without LSD.

Glad Chocolate Starfish is included, not sure what I would have done without having heard it in context of development of nu metal. For some reason it still sounded like shit, but I'm sure there are layers to it that I just can't comprehend.

Taste is different for everyone but there veeeeeeeery questionable songs in here. I could die withouth listening to them and i would be dancing in hell just fine.

Finally worked my way through this one. It was good fun, and rather informative. :)

I made it, I finished the whole book. Got some great songs to download but didn't make it through everything because most of the songs are really obscure and... not really songs I feel the need to listen to before I die. Made the sixties and seventies seem... awful...
But! On the upside, I redownloaded some old favorites. :)

A great book to find out more albums/musicians. My main complaint is that there are a lot of artists that weren't in this book that I felt deserved to be. Still, it's a great book filled with great album recommendations.
