Artist: Rush.
Record: Moving Pictures.
⠀
"The 'Moving Pictures' album by Rush has such a powerful kick to it and knocks the aggressive right into progressive rock music. It changed the way rock music was thought of and opened new doors for real musicians. Rush, being one of the greatest power trios of all time, set the table for each of our thirst’s to capture the power-trio sound.
⠀
Rush has the incredible virtuous skills going from the start with Alex Lifeson’s ripping guitar lines and solos, then to Geddy Lee’s twisting turning bass, unique synth sounds and unmistakable voice all reigned in by the late great Neil Peart (RIP). What’s not to like and strive to emulate? This is by far one of our favourite records to throw on in between a show or after a nights performance, a true masterpiece from beginning to end."

Artist: Beck.
Record: Guero.
⠀
“This is Beck’s 2005 album. I like this one. It’s my favourite by this artist because it’s a very innovative album. It’s very genre-bending, it’s got stuff from rock, hip-hop, rap, folk. It’s not an album a lot of people give him credit for, it’s not one of his better-known albums. The artwork’s a bit freaky, though. I had the deluxe CD of this but I just recently got into vinyl so had to have it. My favourite track is ‘Que’ Onda Guero’ - I can’t define it… if you can’t define the genre of something, I think it can make it really really good.”

Artist: Blondie.
Record: Autoamerican.
⠀
“For a long time, my answer to the question “what’s your all-time favourite album” was 'Autoamerican' by Blondie. It’s no longer my answer, not because I do not love the record (I do), but because the question is no longer valid. After a lifetime of listening to music - mostly albums - my favourite is always changing. But what I love about ‘Autoamerican’ now, and think I did all along, is that it is a brilliant example of how far a pop band can push the envelope.
⠀
Of all the nerve, at the very height of their fame, Blondie chose to throw everyone the colossal curveball that was ‘Autoamerican’. This year is the album’s 40th anniversary and Debbie Harry recently told ‘American Songwriter’: “When we turned it in, I don’t think it was accepted right away by the label.”
⠀
No wonder. The album contains brooding neo-classical (opener Europa), 1920’s cod-jazz pastiche (Here’s Looking At You, Faces), 50s rock n’ roll (T-Birds, Walk Like Me) a cover version of a 60s hit (The Tide Is High) and a song from Camelot the musical (Follow Me). And, of course, now firmly placed in pop legend, the world’s first commercial Rap release (Rapture). Those are just some of the styles on a record that defines the word eclectic like no other pop album I know.
⠀
The cover art is a fabulous painting by Martin Hoffman of the band lined up on a rooftop in New York, with the Empire State prominent on the skyline backdrop. But when you think about it, the album works as a concept album about America itself - and then it all makes sense.
⠀
I was a working-class kid growing up on a grim council estate in Northern England, and America and its pop culture just held such a fascination for me - especially its music. I’d come late to Blondie - a few years after they had broken up, and I was playing the hell out of ‘Eat to the Beat’ and ‘Autoamerican’ in the mid-80s after the band’s popularity had started to wane. I didn’t care. And as it turned out, the music became timeless anyway.”

Artist: Tyler, The Creator.
Record: Flower Boy.
⠀
“Tyler the Creator is one of my favorite artists ever, PERIOD. Tyler first caught my attention over 10 years ago when I discovered Odd Future, the hip hop collective he started with his friends. They have since disbanded but I’ve appreciated seeing the members blossom in their solo careers, especially Tyler’s.
⠀
‘Flower Boy’ is his 4th album & a total fan favorite, as it appeals to a wide variety of audiences (vs some of his earlier, more personal work like ‘Goblin’) and I can’t talk enough about how much I love this album: the artwork, the beats, & features from some of my other favorite artists... Frank Ocean, Steve Lacy and Kali Uchis. Favorite tracks include: ‘Where This Flower Bloom’s, ‘Boredom’, & ‘911/Mr. Lonely’. Even if you haven’t been a fan of Tyler’s previous stuff, you should give this one a listen. Ya might like what you hear.”

This record is important to me. Thanks to him I started listening to rock and roll and started collecting records. I inherited this record from my father's collection."

Artist: Bright Eyes.
Record: I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning.
⠀
“I just had to choose a Bright Eyes album, what with them releasing their first album in 9 years on the 21st August. The excitement is real!
⠀
I still remember the night I first listened to I’m Wide Awake it’s Morning. I’d been recommended them by a friend and had also read an article about them in a zine I’d picked up at a local gig. My friend had played me a few tracks from their previous album ‘Lifted’ and I was instantly impressed. The apocalyptic sound of the drum corp and Conor’s desperate voice seemed to satisfy a need in me. A need for music that had a bit more feeling and intensity than what I currently listening to.
⠀
So anyway, the time I first heard ‘IWAIM’. The album had my undivided attention as soon as the intro to the album (‘At the Bottom of Everything’) started. I instantly picked up the inlay and read along to every song. Once, twice, three times through!
I’d quickly find out that the band’s sound evolved fluidly album to album and directions and themes would change with every release.
‘I’m Wide Awake it’s Morning’ is their acoustic/country/folk offering.
⠀
It’s an album as much political as it is personal. It’s almost diary-like lyrics tell of Conor discovering New York and they’re vivid and real. You can almost see him sat in a bar in East Village, scribbling down his lyrics.
⠀
My favourite song on the album and possibly my favourite Bright Eyes song is ‘Landlocked Blues’. A song about war. It’s so stripped back that for the most part, you can only hear Conor and guest vocalist Emmylou Harris, who cameos through the record.
⠀
The album ends in just as epic fashion with ‘Ode to Joy’. An upbeat song musically, which crescendos with the whole band almost beating and bashing their instruments after Conor’s request to “F**k it up boys, make some noise”!”
