Bowie' spicy discography

David Bowie 1968 How English do you want your album to be? If not much, then this isn't for you. 3,5/10 David Bowie 1969 When you only have a guitar, a drum and a banjo. 6/10 The Man Who Sold the World Nirvana before Nirvana? 7/10 Hunky Dory I never got over the first four tracks, but I think it's good. 9,5/10 The Rise an the Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars Overly long title, so it's perfect. 10/10 Aladdin Sane Bluesy blues that turns my red and white tie blue. 9/10 Pin Ups Covers. 6/10 Diamond Dogs The rise and the fall of David Bowie and the glam rock genre. 7,5/10 Young Americans White washing. 7,5/10 Station to Station My second personality loves this album, so it's a 9,5/10 Low Yellow cover, therefore it's perfect. 10/10 Heroes Grey cover, so it's less good. 9,5/10 Lodger -1 for not calling it "Spiky". 9/10 Scary Monsters and Super Creeps And overly long titles. 10/10 Let's Dance Never got after the first three tracks, but I guess it's nice. 7/10 Tonight A good argument for death penalty. 3/10 Never Let Me Down Same as above. 3/10 Tin Machine and Tin Machine II GUITARS! 4/10 Black Tie White Noise Black washing? 5,5/10 The Buddha of Suburbia Don't ask me why this is here. 5,5/10 1.Outside There's a plot, therefore it's a masterpiece. 9/10 Earthling DRUMS! 6,5/10 ...hours Suddenly, snails! 5/10 Heathen Suddenly, Pixies! 6,5/10 Reality What your soulmate is not. 6,5/10 The Next Day Suddenly, squares! 7,5/10 Blackstar He talks about gangsters in the title track, so you know it's serious. 8,5/10

Overall Bowie has made amazing albums with consistency. So I would rate him a Suffragette/10.

Happy with the grades? No? Well, I guess that you'll have to hear these albums yourself then...

I understand what you’re going for, but I do think this was a wrongheaded project, as someone who once tried to review a single album by going through it song by song.

Yeah, but I\'ll keep it here as a thing NOT to do. I\'m still trying to find a decently entertaining way to review more stuff other than movies and series. Although maybe I shouldn\'t have chosen someone with 27 albums under his belt, but what do I know. Thanks for the feedback anyway.

I really don't want to brag or anything, but...

Then I will say I think you would’ve gotten more mileage out of individually reviewing the three out of 10 or 9/10 out of 10 albums and putting more detail into why you liked or disliked them.

Good proposal, actually. I\'m gonna keep it in mind if I try something similar in the future. Thanks
