The Wall by Pink Floyd

One of the greatest albums from one of the greatest bands of all time. Emotive, storytelling, beautiful, everything art rock should be.

In Rainbows by Radiohead

Hunting guitars and vocals combine to create an incredible album.

Hard Again by Muddy Waters

A fantastically bluesy and soulful album with some of the greatest guitar playing of all time.

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand

Great album with enjoyable hooks and gritty guitar work. Several fantastic songs with Take me out being a stand out along with 40' and in the matinee

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits

This album was already one of my favourite however I have not listened to it for awhile before this. It retains its wonderful combination of soulful guitar mixed with rocky purpose and combines it into a timeless mix.

The Band by The Band
Jan 13 2021

Good album if not my style of music. Favourite song was Across the Great Divide.

Dummy by Portishead
Jan 14 2021

A compelling mix of angelic lyrics and dark music and lyrics creates an eerie atmosphere. The songs can feel repetitive however as they don't differentiate from each other very much. Fave songs are sour times, it could be sweet, its a fire, and glory box.

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand

Great album with enjoyable hooks and gritty guitar work. Several fantastic songs with Take me out being a stand out along with 40' and in the matinee

Superunknown by Soundgarden

Mix of Kurt Cobain inspired lyrics and poised get heavy guitar combined to create an unforgettable album. Favourite songs were Black hole sun and my wave.

High Violet by The National
Jan 19 2021

A mix of talented vocals and interesting audio arrangements give a very enjoyable listen if a little modern for my tastes.

Sail Away by Randy Newman

This album had very few good points with boring music and laughable lyrics however, the song sail away redeems it from being a one star.

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Jan 21 2021

One of the greatest albums from one of the greatest bands of all time. Emotive, storytelling, beautiful, everything art rock should be.

Frampton Comes Alive by Peter Frampton

Fantastic Guitar playing saves this album from the mediocre singing however the song baby I love your way remains a timeless classic.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Jan 23 2021

Very enjoyable album taking direct influence from The Beach Boys with the multiple harmonies and even a little Appalachian swagger.

Metallica by Metallica
Jan 25 2021

Metals most accessible offering to date catchy choruses and scintillating guitar.

Murmur by R.E.M.

Kurt Cobain's powerful vocals and guitar mark this album of the cornerstones of grunge culture

In A Silent Way by Miles Davis

Intricate blend of bluesy piano, saxophone, and guitar create a wonderfully jazzy soundscape however music and sound a little frustrating at times.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Feb 07 2021

Commercially overshadowed by rumours, this album Fleetwood Mac side of gems and contains a great depth of songwriting talent
