Popular Reviews

i don't care if i sound shallow but this is one of the best albums of all time sure his lyrics are dense and it's kinda pompous but u just gotta roll wit it

Underwater Moonlight by The Soft Boys

it was rly good but then i saw it was 40 songs and then i was like man was that necessary

Trafalgar by Bee Gees

it is way sadder than i thought it would be but it's a fantastic album, super beautiful

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie

the epitome of glam rock. it made me desperately want to watch him perform this live. the keys! the sax! his vocals! he's just oozing charisma that's funky, ostentatious, and wild, making you feel like if you had a night out on the town with him it would be the craziest and most fun night. some may say it's unfocused, but I think the disparate stories under this funky glam rock persona cater to Aladan Sane - he's dynamic, chromatic, fluid, and a bit mad.

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Jan 13 2021

wouldn't it be nice is a classic. one of those songs that never fails to lift your spirits. that's not me is so nice i never really listened to it. this album is so joyful. my heart is floating.

Beauty And The Beat by The Go-Go's
Jan 15 2021

it was such a bop. perfect new wave album with female leads. underrated honestly. last part dragged a bit as they all began to mesh together, but overall quality album.

Sister by Sonic Youth
Jan 16 2021

not my vibe

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
Jan 19 2021

wait i was pleasantly surprised by this, a true feel-good album.

The Bends by Radiohead
Jan 20 2021

really solid

Too Rye Ay by Dexys Midnight Runners
Jan 21 2021
Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Jan 23 2021

amazing. i love this album

Music From The Penguin Cafe by Penguin Cafe Orchestra
Jan 24 2021

like it's all just instrumental but it's cool. not my cup of tea but i liked "the sound of someone you love who's going away but it doesn't matter"

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Jan 26 2021

one of their best

Roxy Music by Roxy Music
Jan 31 2021

i don't want to give it a full four because there were some songs where i was like ok hmmm this is too weird for me but some of them were just weird enough where i was really enjoying it. the first half of the album was super fun and unique to listen to, they have their own sound and have fun experimenting with it. if i could give 3.5 i would, if the latter half of the album didn't go off the rails it would be 4

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane
Feb 02 2021

my dad thinks that people who like jefferson airplane are rich kids who dodged the war because they were rich and think they're deeper than they actually are which honestly makes sense but this album was decent

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club
Feb 03 2021

this is peak cuban music i really felt like i was just chilling in havana and i've never even been

Rattus Norvegicus by The Stranglers
Feb 04 2021

uk punk but all the songs sounded similar, i tried to get into it but it seemed like an album of outtakes

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Feb 05 2021

her voice is a powerhouse. she joined blues and rock so well, and there are a few classics on this one.

Street Life by The Crusaders
Feb 06 2021

meh it was pretty repetitive and the first song didn't have to be 11 minutes long

Kenya by Machito
Feb 07 2021
Feb 08 2021

i know i'm biased but i just really don't like him as a person so i cannot justify giving him anything above a 2

Younger Than Yesterday by The Byrds
Feb 09 2021

started strong ended weak, could not stick to a single theme

Steve McQueen by Prefab Sprout
Feb 10 2021

it was such good british 80s pop. all around such a fun listen

Scott 2 by Scott Walker
Feb 11 2021

not my type of music but for the genre it's good

Nevermind by Nirvana
Feb 13 2021

oscillating bw a 4 and a 5. this album is no skip primarily in the beginning but overall each song needs to be studied and jammed to on their own. the songwriting is incredible and studying each song more would definitely feel more confident giving this album a 5. polly for example is such a smart and effective way to write about women’s experience with sexual abuse and shedding light on it through music; it's terrifying, and singing as the abuser produces such an eerie and uncomfortable effect and makes you hate the abuser and feel immense sympathy for "Polly". knowing how much kurt cobain championed women and women's autonomy provides more context, but this song as a whole is so well done. ending with something in the way closes out the album so well since it starts so "angry" and active, but ends calmer while still maintaining that angst and grunge.

NEU! 75 by Neu!
Feb 14 2021

honestly really good to do work to. each song is so different from each other/has a different vibe but is really consistent in its energy so you can still focus but vibe with the change of pace

In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Feb 15 2021

2 songs 38 minutes? king behavior

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Feb 16 2021

i love them but a lot of the songs sounded like they didn't have energy in them

Savane by Ali Farka Touré
Feb 17 2021
Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine
Feb 19 2021

tom morello was SHREDDDINGGG i liked this album way more than i thought i would, it's perfect whenever you need a good energy boost and get your angst out.

Suzanne Vega by Suzanne Vega
Feb 21 2021

it felt like a wannabe joni mitchell

Go Girl Crazy by The Dictators
Feb 22 2021

there wasn't much rhythm to it

Pump by Aerosmith
Feb 23 2021
Exile In Guyville by Liz Phair
Feb 25 2021

i resonated with her idgaf attitude, some songs were bland

Revolver by Beatles
Feb 28 2021

such a solid beatles album, has a genre of it's own compared to the other ones

Snivilisation by Orbital
Mar 03 2021

for a purely instrumental album it was really cool

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Mar 13 2021

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road by Lucinda Williams
Mar 14 2021

Arise by Sepultura
Mar 15 2021

i'm sorry no

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Mar 16 2021

not my cup of tea but giving it a 3 because the female rocker is dope and maps is such a good song

Mar 17 2021

this album deserves the hype, the songs match the theme/energy of the album so well

American Pie by Don McLean
Mar 20 2021

why was the first song 8 minutes long and the rest 2 minutes. for what

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
Mar 21 2021
Aja by Steely Dan
Mar 23 2021

i was not expecting this to be so funky and energetic, so i was pleasantly surprised, but they didn't seem to diversify the funk

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
Mar 25 2021

good for a classic rock album, i like mix of long songs and shorter songs. they all started to mesh together though in theme, it seemed like they were trying to hard to be macho rock n rollers.

Music From Big Pink by The Band
Mar 26 2021

such a classic album, has one of my all time fav songs

Shaft by Isaac Hayes
Mar 27 2021

soooo smooooth

Underwater Moonlight by The Soft Boys
Mar 28 2021

it was rly good but then i saw it was 40 songs and then i was like man was that necessary

Connected by Stereo MC's
Mar 30 2021

this was such a cool mix of 80s hip hop and electronic music gr8 job

Apr 08 2021

i really loved it, he has a great voice

Horses by Patti Smith
Apr 10 2021

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Apr 11 2021

only five songs and the first and last two are long but the guitar solos are sooooo fucking goooooodddd

Trafalgar by Bee Gees
Apr 17 2021

it is way sadder than i thought it would be but it's a fantastic album, super beautiful

Apr 19 2021

Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones
Apr 20 2021

literally forgot how good it was

The Coral by The Coral
Apr 22 2021

so good! but like 2-3 solid songs

Apr 23 2021

a ton of songs that are only 2ish minutes long which i really like because rly complements the fast-paced, energetic punk rock genre so you just get spurts of different songs to rock out to, but they all kinda mesh together

The Idiot by Iggy Pop
Apr 24 2021

ughhh i rly like iggy pop but this album just isn't great

Ragged Glory by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Apr 25 2021

thoroughly enjoyed

Faith by George Michael
Apr 26 2021

such a great album, especially for coming out

Apr 28 2021

really nice jazz and storytelling, kinda like a live album so it's best to listen to in order

Apr 29 2021

i love wilco so much so im biased - summerteeth is def my favorite by them even though this is more popular. jesus etc is a classic

Mermaid Avenue by Billy Bragg
Apr 30 2021

this is the second day in a row i got wilco and i am riding this high. i really only liked the songs with jeff tweedy singing but this album was a great combo of the two - neither lost their voice but actually complemented each other.

Opus Dei by Laibach
May 03 2021

tbh it sounded like nazi propaganda. there's literally a song called how the west was won

LP1 by FKA twigs
May 04 2021

she is immaculate angel sent from heaven above

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
May 05 2021

really cool integration of classic rock with hop on a lot of the tracks, a ton of energy and personality coming from them to make it really fun to listen to lyrically and musically, some of it sounds the same from track to track but overall unique and clearly definitive of hip hop's golden age

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
May 06 2021

the epitome of glam rock. it made me desperately want to watch him perform this live. the keys! the sax! his vocals! he's just oozing charisma that's funky, ostentatious, and wild, making you feel like if you had a night out on the town with him it would be the craziest and most fun night. some may say it's unfocused, but I think the disparate stories under this funky glam rock persona cater to Aladan Sane - he's dynamic, chromatic, fluid, and a bit mad.

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
May 07 2021

he has a beautiful and calm voice and is a classic folk revivalist so his lyrics are very compelling, but overall it wasn't anything special

Miriam Makeba by Miriam Makeba
May 09 2021

Piercingly beautiful voice that will keep you hooked the entire album, dynamic record, love the mix of African and western folk. super strong 4

1977 by Ash
May 14 2021

Stuck because it was solid classic garage rock and there were a few great songs individually but the album didn't have a distinct vision or sound. prob 3.5 if I could

Tanto Tempo by Bebel Gilberto
May 15 2021

really smooth listen, top tier bossa nova

Killing Joke by Killing Joke
Aug 06 2021

enjoyed it more than i thought i would - post punk, post industrial album with a few songs that really hit the mark. altogether, could have had shortened some of the interludes and the angsty vocals

I'm Your Man by Leonard Cohen
Aug 07 2021

i never could get into leonard cohen (although appreciate his lyricism) but this was a really cool one. the hyper 80s production didn't really age well but the album felt complete and full, not over or underdone. really felt like you could feel his character in his voice too
