Popular Reviews

The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter by The Incredible String Band

This album’s being on this list and lauded by so many people I respect makes me feel like it’s a big joke and I’m not in on it. I wish there are a 0/5, because 1 feels too generous.

Cafe Bleu by The Style Council

This is honestly up there with The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter for bad albums on this list for me. It thinks it's good, that's what bugs me. It's lazy lounge music sung by pretentious jazzy twats who just have to have an accent in the album title. I tried a few songs, skipped to the "hits" on the album, cleaned up the puke on the floor and had to pull out. Would be a zero if I could. Hard pass.

Ray Of Light by Madonna
Dec 21 2022

This album is very much of the time. It's Madonna's attempt at reinventing herself for the time, but it mostly falls flat, with a couple of songs where she hits the mark.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Dec 26 2022

I've never really "gotten" Oasis, sure it's not easy to write a popular song, but these guys write such paint-by-numbers songs that I feel like most of the mystique is in their terrible attitudes and haircuts. This was more of the same. Don't hate it, but watching a kettle boil might be just as entertaining.

Space Ritual by Hawkwind
Jan 12 2023

Not bad but not super strong either. Some great elements, so others not so much

Infected by The The
Jan 13 2023

Guy sounds like Mick Jagger but with none of the charm. Album is pretty ok, not terrible, not great.
