The three hundred and fifty-first album: #351 David Bowie - Station To Station
There's a less extravagant feel to Bowie's tenth album, one that's still produced but has a simpler rock sound as its core through the most of it, relying on Bowie's lyrics and vocals more to create that feeling. It's nothing big, but it feels well crafted and focused in a way that really suits me at this point.
The three hundred and fiftieth album: #350 Modern Lovers - Modern Lovers
It feels like since my moving-related break, I've already been hitting some high points for some good rock albums. Modern Lovers aims towards punk again. It's upbeat, not trying to be deep, but hitting the right notes - not too hard, but not subdued either, staying accessible and energetic. It still feels like teenagers or someone in their early twenties working through things, but it's packaged up well enough to stay very listenable.
The three hundred and fourty-ninth album: #349 Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers
Tom Petty's sound here feels like classic rock music - the upbeat driving sound, straightforward vocals, no tricks or excessive sounds, but instead harkening back slightly to older styles of music while still feeling quite modern. There are the hints at metal and punk, but on the whole it's a fun rock and roll sound that carries through really well.
