Led Zeppelin: Led Zeppelin (IAS #42)

Here's an old favorite:

Led Zeppelin: Led Zeppelin

And an announcement to boot (reprinted from the FB page):

Upon uploading this last review, I am discontinuing the "Important Album Series", at least for the time being. It turns out that the IAS review, in the format in which it currently exists, is eating up way too much of my time, compared to the usual reviewing process, and leaves me physically drained much more often than I can really afford.

However, do not despair, because in its place I will try to reserve the Sunday for a slightly less cumbersome project - the "Important Artist Series". Basically, this will be the day when I'm still ready to forsake the alphabetical series and post one regular review of an important non-alphabetical artist. In the usual blog format - not as large as the ones on the regular site pages. This way, there will also be no doubling of the reviews (no, no more Beatles or Beach Boys or Bob Dylan reviews). As for the new artists to cover, the order is still under consideration. 

The Beatles: Rubber Soul (IAS #41)

Today's review is (almost officially) a non-review, so don't even bother checking it out:

The Beatles: Rubber Soul

Wu-Tang Clan: Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) (IAS #40)

Oh fateful day. Thank you on behalf of Only Solitaire and I hope we've passed the audition.

Wu-Tang Clan: Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)

Bob Dylan: Blood On The Tracks (IAS #39)

By a simple twist of fate, today's review is:

Bob Dylan: Blood On The Tracks

King Crimson: Red (IAS #38)

This one's for the brainiacs:

King Crimson: Red

David Bowie: Low (IAS #37)

Kind of sad it wasn't "Heroes", but all in due time, I guess:

David Bowie: Low

Joy Division: Closer (IAS #36)

A real challenge to write about albums like these, but here goes nothing:

Joy Division: Closer

Sonic Youth: Daydream Nation (IAS #35)

A tough album to write about, but, to the best of my avantgarde-cracking abilities, here it is:

Sonic Youth: Daydream Nation

Nirvana: Nevermind (IAS #34)

Actually, a great album, whaddaya know:

Nirvana: Nevermind

The Jimi Hendrix Experience: Are You Experienced (IAS #33)

Quite a clumsy review of a nearly impeccable album today:

The Jimi Hendrix Experience: Are You Experienced

Bob Dylan: Blonde On Blonde (IAS #32)

Another revisit, in a slightly sillier key than usual (because I'm a little tired of serious analysis for this one):

Bob Dylan: Blonde On Blonde

Pink Floyd: Animals (IAS #31)

Another old favorite. Here's one for all the dogs, pigs, and sheep of this world:

Pink Floyd: Animals

Arcade Fire: Funeral (IAS #30)

Revisiting an old favorite today:

Arcade Fire: Funeral

The Clash: London Calling (IAS #29)

Apologies for the delay (didn't want this one to be too much of a rushjob, though in a way it is still a rushjob). Here's a really big one, anyway:

The Clash: London Calling

Charles Mingus: The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady (IAS #28)

More jazz for you today - provided this should qualify as jazz:

Charles Mingus: The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady

Television: Marquee Moon (IAS #27)

A real tough nut to crack this week:

Television: Marquee Moon

Talking Heads: Remain In Light (IAS #26)

We have a wild one for us tonight:

Talking Heads: Remain In Light

The Beatles: The Beatles (IAS #25)

Coming today, the one and only Great White:

The Beatles: The Beatles

Godspeed You! Black Emperor: Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven (IAS #24)

Okay, this one was almost as tough to write as it is tough to type in its entire title:

Godspeed You! Black Emperor: Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven

Neutral Milk Hotel: In The Aeroplane Over The Sea (IAS #23)

This one's bound to be controversial today:

Neutral Milk Hotel: In The Aeroplane Over The Sea
