I wanted to create a little summary of the list since the actual logs are pretty verbose and mostly stream of consciousness as I'm listening to the album.
Casually Dressed & Deep in Conversation is one of my favorite post-hardcore albums and defined my pre-teen and early teen years. The album reminds me of being young and confused and sad. From the early 2000s this album holds up and every song manages to deliver and for a band that had medium success in the U.S I still see them as a titan of the 00s post-hardcore/emo genre.

Rage Against the Machine's self titled album should be of no surprise. What did surprise me is that despite many years of constant listening I never fully understood why I felt songs differently than others. I noticed while working on this gempost how they balance their blend of genres and some bring that 50/50 into 60/40 in either direction and when I was younger I didn't appreciate when that majority fell into the hip-hop side of things.

Carly is a titan of modern pop and this album is the best pop album of the 2010s. Maybe Gaga can compete. I need to revisit it. But this entire album is just a series of bangers that you can't help but dance to. I discovered this right before lockdown and this album really helped me through it.
