Day 22: Genre Adultery
Play an record that deviated from that artist’s usual sound or style


While Trick of the Tail marks Genesis’ first release without vocalist and founding member Peter Grabriel, I consider this to be their first album that dives into pop rock.

Day 23: “I was served lemons, but I made lemonade”
Play a great record that was born out of hard times for the artist in question

As i’m sure you all know, Grohl has stated that this album was made in good fun and that it was a cathartic experience for him following the death of Cobain. Fun fact, I bought this album because back when Ronda Rousey was topping the womens division in UFC, she posted a song from this album on her instagram story. Listened to the album and liked it a lot, so I grabbed a copy.
