Motormouth is my nickname, and I was 16 when I made this account.

I'm more of an album person than a band person. I know a lot of bands, but only a few albums by each.

My wishlist are the albums that I want to own a physical copy of, so that's why it's so high. Most albums I can listen to on youtube or spotify, so my wishlist are albums that I consider to be good or special in some way, or I want to read the liner notes!
My collection is physical only. I use Spotify/Last Fm/Youtube to check an album out, to decide if I want to buy it or have it in my collection.

I have many albums on both cd and cassette/vinyl, so there will be duplicates in my collection. Some I might be willing to part with for trades.

I am a person who believes that everything deserves a chance, regardless of what others tell you. How can you know your personal feelings about something when you've never heard it?

With that being said, these are my preferred music genres/sub genres:

rock: hard rock, blues rock, folk rock, country rock, southern rock, singer-songwriter, pop/soft rock, stoner rock, psychedelic rock, prog rock, grunge, alt. rock, punk rock, post grunge, some jazz fusion.

metal: traditional/nwobhm, thrash/speed metal, doom metal, prog metal, death metal, power metal, hair/glam metal, black metal, sludge metal, metalcore(just beginning with this genre)

blues: British blues, electric blues, Texas Blues

country: Alt country, classic country, outlaw country, some modern country

Pop: 60s/70s, folk pop, prog pop, power pop

rap: old school or underground. (I'm looking for recs in this genre the most. I like all styles (at least American), as long as it's not something like Lil Wayne).


MY RATING SYSTEM:
Basically, anything 4.0-5.0 I'd recommend to music fans in general. They're my want to own/buy or must buy/own categories
3.0/3.5 are recommended if you're a fan of the genre(s) that an album falls under. Some 2.5 ratings may be included. Most I want to own, but it might not be as wanted as the higher rated albums.
2.5s, decide for yourself. You might like them. Good for a listen or 3 to make up my mind.
2.0s and below, are not recommended. 2.0s might have a good song. However most have little or no good things to warrant ownership or usually, a full listen or at least not multiple listens

I rate albums/movies based upon how much I enjoyed them/my own feelings about them. I don't take into account any popularity or anything.

Feel free to add me or leave a comment. :)

    Oh yeah. My favorites list isn't ordered properly yet though - only the top 6 are what I would actually consider in order. The rest are a work in progress that I can't bring myself to do yet. It's actually really difficult to determine which albums I like better than another, since I love all of them.

    That's great to hear, Kim. Happy for ya. I'm hoping for your health issues will get better too. As for me, on the other hand, the ever-nearing end of college is starting to hit me. This time next year I'll be hunting for my first professional job. Eek.

    Yeah, it's crazy. They say time condenses as you get older, and I'm starting to think there's some truth to that. Last few years feel like a blur. And I'm not even 100% sure. My major is in the Marketing/Advertising area, so presumably working in that department for a good company. But I could also just stay here at UT and pursue a master's/doctorate in something else, basically become a professional academic. Or apply to law school since my GPA is probably good enough. I don't know. I'm basically paralyzed by indecision about my future. It'll work itself out I suppose.

    Thanks Kim! I saw your Facebook post; but I haven't had a chance to go through and like/respond to them all yet. But I do appreciate it :) It was a good one - hung out with family and a couple friends. Tried indoor skydiving. Got a new computer (finally!!!). What's up with you?

    Thanks for the tip. Even though it's easily my least-preferred Death album, I want to collect their entire discography. That version sounds like it would tickle my completionist side for sure.

    Hey thanks for friending me! I always like to meet new people and to get new perspectives on music and to give my own out to others too of course.

    Btw, I read your bio and I think do to your liking of albums over over bands and your liking of 60's and 70's and folk pop, you would enjoy Nancy & Lee. It's a very cute album with some of my favorite baroque pop tunes ever on here.

    Happy listening and feel free to message me anytime :)
