Transformer arrived when glam rock was ascendant and the rigid gender norms of the past were being questioned and the album didn't just ride this wave; it helped create it. The album's success brought Reed to a level of mainstream recognition he had never achieved with The Velvet Underground and, in the years that followed, Transformer's influence would be felt across multiple genres and generations. The New York punk scene that emerged in the mid-1970s owed an enormous debt, as did the new wave and post-punk movements of the late '70s and early '80s.

The War On Drugs' third album is one of the most significant rock albums of the 21st century. What began as Adam Granduciel's deeply personal project evolved into a mini-masterpiece that bridged past and present, offering both comfort in familiar sounds and excitement in its innovative approach. It didn't just revitalise guitar-driven rock during a time when electronic and hip-hop dominated the cultural conversation — it redefined what rock music could be in the modern era.

Released in 1969, Abbey Road is often spoken about as a farewell, though it wasn’t presented that way at the time. What it really represents is a final act of collective will: four musicians whose relationships were badly strained deciding to make one last album properly, with care, discipline and a shared sense of purpose. The remarkable thing is how completely that decision paid off. Abbey Road doesn’t sound like a band in collapse; it sounds like a band in total control - and what gives it its emotional weight is the tension between unity and separation. You can hear four distinct songwriting voices pulling in different directions, each already imagining a future beyond the group.
