Dig Your Own Hole by The Chemical Brothers

Really liked it. Based on the album's age, I can see that this music set the precedent for other bands such as Beastie Boys.

Remedy by Basement Jaxx

Fun album. Some very catchy tunes. Would listen again.

...Like Clockwork by Queens Of The Stone Age

Great album, but I knew that! I had already listened to it and is what got me into listening to Queen of the Stone Age.

Jan 13 2021

It was an interesting narrative. Made me want to look into the movie (which I haven't watched). Good background music for working along to and such. Nothing too exciting, in my opinion.

Jan 14 2021

It was good. Not as mind-blowing as I thought it would be based on all I had heard about it, but it definitely was enjoyable.

Jan 15 2021

I liked it! I dont have a lot of listening experience with Jazz, but it was relaxing and not overly distracting.

Axis: Bold As Love by Jimi Hendrix
Jan 18 2021

Liked it, though I think it merits another listen. I don't feel I was able to truly appreciate it yet.

Punishing Kiss by Ute Lemper
Jan 21 2021

I really didn't like this album. I forced myself to listen through it because it was, admittedly, very different from my tastes. At best, some songs were nothing special. There were more than a few that I found almost discordant.

Jan 25 2021

Thought I would like it more, but the music was overall very slow. There's of course a few hits and those are enjoyable as expected, but the rest of the album wasn't noteworthy for me at all.

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
Jan 29 2021

I really liked it. Added to my favorites.

...Like Clockwork by Queens Of The Stone Age
Feb 01 2021

Great album, but I knew that! I had already listened to it and is what got me into listening to Queen of the Stone Age.

Darkdancer by Les Rythmes Digitales
Feb 04 2021

It's not bad, but it really wasn't my taste and the music seems a bit date in a bad way.

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
Feb 05 2021

Fun album. Some very catchy tunes. Would listen again.

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Feb 09 2021

I wasn't expecting this to be good ambience music, but it was. I'm not sure how to feel about that though.

From Elvis In Memphis by Elvis Presley
Feb 10 2021

I couldn't get through it (though I did listen to most of it). The music was not very interesting to me and the lyrics ranged from generic to questionable or cringey.

Opus Dei by Laibach
Feb 12 2021

Not my type of music.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Feb 15 2021
In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Feb 16 2021

The album is exactly what I think of when I hear 'Jazz'. In that regard, I think that is a good thing. On the other hand, it wasn't terribly exciting.

Dig Your Own Hole by The Chemical Brothers
Feb 25 2021

Really liked it. Based on the album's age, I can see that this music set the precedent for other bands such as Beastie Boys.

All Mod Cons by The Jam
Mar 01 2021

Meh. Nothing original. I might be missing some historical context but I didn't feel the music was anything special.

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Mar 12 2021

Also a bit meh. Wasn't anything special music-wise in my opinion.

Technique by New Order
Mar 15 2021

I liked it. It gave me some The Strokes vibes and of the surrounding genre (which I don't know the name of). I'd listen to it again, and I probably would.

Mar 16 2021

Music was surprisingly good. I was able to enjoy it despite not really being into rap all that much. The themes, however, were often questionable. Due to the latter, I probably wouldn't feel comfortable listening to it again.

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
Mar 17 2021

Great, fun album. My rating is however biased because I was already familiar with her music.

Halcyon Digest by Deerhunter
Mar 18 2021

It was ok background music, but it didn't stand out much to me.

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Mar 19 2021

It was very good, and deserving of its 'iconic' status in my opinion.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Mar 31 2021

Some good tunes. Explicit lyrics made the experience a bit less good than it would have otherwise been.

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Apr 01 2021

It was good. Jazzy in a way that reminded me of Jethro Tull. I would definitely listen to it again.
