Popular Reviews

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan

The more I listen to Bob Dylan, the less I like him. He was very influential, but I do not like him.

Revolver by Beatles

Great use of other instruments for background parts. I was not a big fan of the Beatles before listening to this album, and my opinion has not changed much. I can acknowledge that it is quality music, but I don't particularly enjoy it.

LP1 by FKA twigs

Very good album. I love her voice and her choice of sounds to accompany it. I enjoyed this very much.

Cloud Nine by The Temptations

I absolutely love this album. It's got a lot of funk to it, and it has a great groove. The instrumental choices were very nice and characteristic of the era, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Smash by The Offspring

"Ahh, it's time to relax." This album is amazing. I first listened to it when I was around 10, and it really got me into a lot of the rock and punk that I love now. If I could rate this album higher than 5, I would.

Moving Pictures by Rush
Jan 13 2021

Very good use of instrument effects and ambient sounds.

Revolver by Beatles
Jan 14 2021

Great use of other instruments for background parts. I was not a big fan of the Beatles before listening to this album, and my opinion has not changed much. I can acknowledge that it is quality music, but I don't particularly enjoy it.

Harvest by Neil Young
Jan 15 2021

Loved the guitar, but the album itself was definitely too slow for me.

I actually enjoyed this album quite a bit. It helped me understand some of the roots of punk music. Nothing too drastic instrumentally, but everything worked very well together.

Jan 17 2021

It's nice to have finally heard Bob Dylan, but I'm not a big fan. Worth a listen, but not my style.

All Mod Cons by The Jam
Jan 18 2021

Very nice sound, loved the drums.

Tidal by Fiona Apple
Jan 19 2021

Very nice instrumentals, not exactly my speed, but I did appreciate the album.

Supa Dupa Fly by Missy Elliott
Jan 20 2021

It's nice to have some variety, as I'm not the biggest fan of 90's Hip Hop. I didn't dislike the album as much as I expected to. I found a lot of the instrumental choices very interesting, and it made for a good listen.

Odelay by Beck
Jan 21 2021

Very much enjoyed this.

Two Dancers by Wild Beasts
Jan 22 2021

Instrumentals were very good, but I had no interest in the vocals whatsoever. Though the Spotify-produced radio station that was suggested after this album was very good.

Aja by Steely Dan
Jan 23 2021

Beautiful instrumentals, I enjoyed this album very much.

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Jan 24 2021

I can't stand Bob Dylan's voice, it turns out, but this album perfectly depicts blues from that era.

Play by Moby
Jan 25 2021

Not particularly my style, but it was interesting.

Marquee Moon by Television
Jan 26 2021

Not all that interesting, but it was fine.

Jan 27 2021

I loved this album. However, it was really disheartening to hear how little progress we've made in the country with the same issues from this album in '90 still being very prevalent today.

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jan 28 2021

It started out fine, but I definitely got bored less than halfway through the album.

Gentlemen by The Afghan Whigs
Jan 29 2021

This album was fine. It was definitely characteristic of 90's rock.

Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Jan 30 2021

I might have appreciated this if it were my first time hearing it, but I burnt myself out on AC/DC years ago.

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
Feb 01 2021

The more I listen to Bob Dylan, the less I like him. He was very influential, but I do not like him.

Vespertine by Björk
Feb 02 2021

This was alright. Not particularly my style, but the end of the album was very nice. It was a nice change of pace from my usual playlists.

Feb 03 2021

I very much enjoyed this album. It kept me groovin' through the workday, and it had a lot of interesting sounds.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Feb 04 2021

Probably my favorite album that's been on the list so far. I love Frank Sinatra, and it really kept me together during a long day.

Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear
Feb 07 2021

This album was good, but I lost interest pretty early. There were interesting sounds, but they were fairly repetitive.

Mama's Gun by Erykah Badu
Feb 08 2021

This was definitely different than most of the albums on this list. Not bad, but not something I would want to listen to often.

Felt Mountain by Goldfrapp
Feb 09 2021

Not a big fan of this album. It was too weird for me.

LP1 by FKA twigs
Feb 10 2021

Very good album. I love her voice and her choice of sounds to accompany it. I enjoyed this very much.

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Feb 11 2021

I really liked this! I've never listened to much Elvis, but I thought this was a really good album, especially for the time it was made.

Psychocandy by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Feb 12 2021

Not a big fan. Very liberal use of feedback, and it was too much. If I heard this when it came out, I may have liked it, but I have heard the same sound done so much better.

Horses by Patti Smith
Feb 14 2021

This was pretty awful.

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Feb 15 2021

Pretty good. This is definitely early-on in their career, but it was still enjoyable.

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
Feb 16 2021

This was great to hear. I love the variety of adding jazz/swing into this list, and I really enjoyed a lot of the stylings on this album.

Feb 17 2021

This was fine. It was great for background listening during a busy day, but it's not something I'd listen to normally.

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Feb 18 2021

This was okay. I'm glad I listened, but I'm very okay never hearing this album again.

Suede by Suede
Feb 19 2021

This was pretty nice. Better than I was expecting. It was smooth and easy to listen to.

Dear Science by TV On The Radio
Feb 20 2021

This was pretty alright. It was kinda funky, so it made for a good listen. It definitely got old by the end of the album, though.

Cloud Nine by The Temptations
Feb 21 2021

I absolutely love this album. It's got a lot of funk to it, and it has a great groove. The instrumental choices were very nice and characteristic of the era, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

...And Justice For All by Metallica
Feb 22 2021

I overdid it on Metallica back in middle school, but it was refreshing to listen to a full album again with a different perspective than I had back then. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would, and it was nice to see a variety in my usual sound.

Bandwagonesque by Teenage Fanclub
Feb 24 2021

This is fine for background noise, but it's not something I would seek out, really. It gives me Beatles vibes, but a bit heavier.

Le Tigre by Le Tigre
Feb 25 2021

I really enjoy the instrumentals for this album, but the vocals are too weird for me. It's definitely unique, I'll give it that.

Smash by The Offspring
Feb 26 2021

"Ahh, it's time to relax." This album is amazing. I first listened to it when I was around 10, and it really got me into a lot of the rock and punk that I love now. If I could rate this album higher than 5, I would.

I'm Your Man by Leonard Cohen
Dec 16 2022

I think this album is a little too slow for my liking. Instrumentals and vocals are great, but I don't think this is the tempo I was looking for today. Sometimes, the songs feel a little empty, like instruments are just missing, but I think that adds to some of the charm of this style.

Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Dec 17 2022

This album was a chore to listen to. Bob Marley was influential as hell, and that's awesome, but this felt like listening to the same exact song for about 45 minutes. I'm very glad it's done.

Illmatic by Nas
Dec 20 2022

This has been pretty good! The album has got a really good flow to it, and I can appreciate it.
