Popular Reviews

Rust In Peace by Megadeth

This album is like an hour long and 50 minutes of that are tappin solos, if you like metal you're a virgin, but if you don't you're a bigger virgin

Doolittle by Pixies

Awk COME ON. It's feckin' Doolittle like. It's "alternative rock" at it's finest, whatever that actually means.

Goodbye And Hello by Tim Buckley

You get out a big pot and mix together Al Stewart, Harry Chapin, John Martyn and Harry Chapin... you get Tim Buckley. And it's pretty tight

Low by David Bowie
Jan 13 2021
Rust In Peace by Megadeth
Jan 18 2021

This album is like an hour long and 50 minutes of that are tappin solos, if you like metal you're a virgin, but if you don't you're a bigger virgin

From Elvis In Memphis by Elvis Presley
Jan 19 2021

I mean... it's Elvis. It's good shit, but you ask me to tell the difference between the album tracks, and I can't help ya bud

The Scream by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Jan 20 2021

This album is sick. Kind of got a bit of Velvet Underground energy but sounds so dark... I don't really know what to think about it - it's good, really good, but it's definitely something you need to be in the mood for. That Helter Skelter cover was bizarre af

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Jan 21 2021

Nina Simone is acclaimed for a reason

At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Jan 24 2021

Classic. So damn good. Johnny Cash sings with such heart and has a voice like gravel running through your fingertips

Cloud Nine by The Temptations
Jan 25 2021

Was alright. Didn't blow me away like. Lot of these classic albums suffer from a bad case of the samesies

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Jan 26 2021

Michael Jackson... music's original bad dude. Actually some sick album tracks on this. And the guitar solo from 'Beat It' is so damn metal.

Kenya by Machito
Jan 27 2021

This album is the same age as Mervyn... but it's aged so much better. I think this is my favourite to come up so far. An album that I've never heard of that actually rips start to finish.

Step In The Arena by Gang Starr
Jan 28 2021

Ayy I've listened to this one before. Big Mos Def vibes but not as good

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Jan 29 2021

Couldn't even finish it lads. Besides 'Paint it Black', 'Stupid Girl' and 'Under My Thumb', this album is so fucking boring. And here 'Paint it Black' isn't even on the UK version.

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Jan 30 2021

This album is dope. 'Uh-oh, Love Comes to Town'? Such a track. Love the steel drums. David Byrne has ass burgers out the wazoo but whatever. Not as good as Speaking in Tongues but sufficiently freaky.

Jan 31 2021

Some of the tracks on the second half of this album are a bit boring/naff but the first 4-5 really make up for it. Bullet the Blue Sky is slammin'

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Feb 01 2021

Awk sure this album isn't as fried out as the one that came before it, but you can't really expect me to dislike it can ye?

She's So Unusual by Cyndi Lauper
Feb 02 2021

Album is fucking loaded with hits. Album tracks, while decent, probably won't stick with me for long. Who's better? Cyndi Lauper or Bonnie Tyler? Fight it out.

Walking Wounded by Everything But The Girl
Feb 03 2021

Remember my cousin listening back to this in like 2001... I was never big into DnB but this album is so sweet, it's like a mix of the chillest Aphex Twin beats or Shinichiro Yokata with some soft singing Annie Lennox. Fucking rules. And holds up.

Doolittle by Pixies
Feb 05 2021

Awk COME ON. It's feckin' Doolittle like. It's "alternative rock" at it's finest, whatever that actually means.

With The Beatles by Beatles
Feb 06 2021

I think either this or Beatles for Sale is my least favourite... But fuckin' hell like it's still jampacked with tunes and just bloody excellent.

Eternally Yours by The Saints
Feb 11 2021

It's like the Ramones... but less shit... and with horns. It's punk so it all kind of runs into each other, but I actually think it's a lot of fun! Also 'International Robots' is Aunty Donna as fuck

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Feb 13 2021

Give it 5 stars or I'll get ye

Goodbye And Hello by Tim Buckley
Feb 15 2021

You get out a big pot and mix together Al Stewart, Harry Chapin, John Martyn and Harry Chapin... you get Tim Buckley. And it's pretty tight

The Band by The Band
Feb 17 2021

Yer Daw loves this one... and I think it's pretty cool too.

Heroes by David Bowie
Feb 19 2021

Of course this album is fuckin' fab. You all know it. But I had completely forgotten/never heard the instrumental tracks towards the end, and I wasn't really paying attention as I listened because I knew the tunes, but then these started playing and I was in some kind of trance.

Feb 23 2021

Jimiroquai Broadbent knows how much this slaps... Nah seriously, it's super cheesy, it's definitely of its time, and Jay Kay is an asshole. But I can't deny that this album is loaded with a fair few bops.

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
Feb 25 2021

Mayonaise is the coolest song this band ever did And it's basically 'Sometimes' by MBV.

xx by The xx
Feb 27 2021

FAB

The Specials by The Specials
Mar 01 2021

The hits hit. The album tracks are naffin mind blowing like

Illmatic by Nas
Mar 02 2021

Fuckin' sweet. Boy raps from the streets. Hard but not as hard as Mos Def

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Mar 05 2021

Lady got pipes

The Score by Fugees
Mar 06 2021

This album fuckin bangs but what is up with that Chinese restaurant skit

The Visitors by ABBA
Mar 07 2021

Yeah so a bit of Belgium craic I got really blocked with my mates a few weeks ago and did Slipping Through my Fingers on karaoke

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Mar 09 2021

This album slaps pretty damn hard for a sad wee folky number. I like how it's way more downplayed than his other stuff. But it can't hold a candle to Bryter Layter

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Mar 10 2021

This album has some pretty sick tunes on it but there's something about that acoustic bass that simultaneously sounds really cool and makes all the songs sound the same

Mar 12 2021

This is kinda like David Byrne if he got his hole once in a while but not too often because he's still David Byrne

Tommy by The Who
Mar 15 2021

I mean all Who jokes aside this one is kinda boring

The Cars by The Cars
Mar 16 2021

Just What I Needed is a certified bop but the rest of this album is sexy as hell

The Poet by Bobby Womack
Mar 22 2021

BOBBY

Stankonia by OutKast
Mar 23 2021

This album is pretty lit lyke

Future Days by Can
Mar 24 2021

Jim hates Phish. I hate Jim.

Back In Black by AC/DC
Mar 26 2021

Jonathans of the world unite

E.V.O.L. by Sonic Youth
Apr 01 2021

Not their best like but decent

Elephant Mountain by The Youngbloods
Apr 02 2021

This is exactly what I was in the mood for. Solid album

Gold by Ryan Adams
Apr 05 2021
Purple Rain by Prince
Apr 11 2021

Aw it slaps so hard, some of the album tracks are a bit alright but the hits HIT

Ragged Glory by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Apr 15 2021

Fucking smacks like the hits are super toit and did you know that this album actually invented grunge

Axis: Bold As Love by Jimi Hendrix
Apr 17 2021

Aye it's sick like what do you want me to say just wagga wagga woo on the geet all day boy wouldn't know how to do a tax return but he would know how to do a slight return I tell ya what voodoo chile

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Apr 19 2021

Bob's just being Bob and I'm all here for it

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
Apr 27 2021

Absolutely slaps start to finish. Andy Warhol is the best Bowie song ever written. Fight me if you disagree.

Imagine by John Lennon
Apr 29 2021

Imagine slappin' Yoko upside the jaw

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
May 01 2021

Fuck I kinda forgot about this website for a couple days but this album is sexy

Tidal by Fiona Apple
May 07 2021
Parklife by Blur
