Featured Rock Albums


1995


Alanis Morissette - Jagged Little Pill (1995)

Alanis Morissette
Jagged Little Pill

The genius of Jagged Little Pill isn’t in how angry or vulnerable it is—it’s in how both exist in the same breath. She writes like someone who’s been dismissed too often and finally learned how to weaponize honesty.


1972


Alice Cooper – School's Out (1972)

Alice Cooper
School’s Out

Cooper and his band ride that thin line between chaos and craft, throwing together Broadway kitsch, garage rock grime, and teenage desperation with the glee of kids setting off fireworks in the principal’s office.
