Popular Reviews

Rio by Duran Duran

Holy shit the bass on this album is incredible! An album and band my metal-loving ass completely dismissed as a kid. This is some good shit.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac

Edgeless boring uninteresting dreck

Pump by Aerosmith

This album from one of the worst bands in rock n' roll history sucks harder than even their earliest shit, which is just absolute trash.

69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields

Some gems on this - really lovely songs - but overall just too damn long. Yes, I get the point.

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers

The album that broke Marley to the masses. While I prefer the earlier, skankier shit it's an undeniable classic.

Rio by Duran Duran

Holy shit the bass on this album is incredible! An album and band my metal-loving ass completely dismissed as a kid. This is some good shit.

Beach Samba by Astrud Gilberto
Jan 31 2021

A bossa nova classic. Excellent.

Berlin by Lou Reed
Feb 02 2021

Stand-out tracks: Lady Day, Men Of Good Fortune, The Kids, Sad Song

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Feb 03 2021

Grooves deeper than the Grand Canyon. Smokin' samba soul.

Station To Station by David Bowie
Feb 04 2021

Classic. One of the best albums of all time. "Stay" is impossibly great.

Haunted Dancehall by The Sabres Of Paradise
Feb 05 2021

Completely unfamiliar with this one. I like it a lot. An innovative techno LP from 1994. Standout tracks: "Duke Of Earsfield", "Wilmot", "Tow Truck", "Theme", "Ballad Of Nicky McGuire"

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Feb 07 2021

An obvious post punk classic. "New Dawn Fades" "Day Of the Lords", "Shadowplay", "Remember Nothing" are my favorites.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Feb 08 2021
Goo by Sonic Youth
Feb 09 2021

Very good album. "Tunic (Song For Karen)", "Kool Thing".

Pump by Aerosmith
Feb 10 2021

This album from one of the worst bands in rock n' roll history sucks harder than even their earliest shit, which is just absolute trash.

Feb 12 2021

Really good album. Side A is upbeat artsy rock n' roll and side B is pastoral, atmospheric and ambient.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Feb 13 2021

Good album! Solid rock n' roll. "The Union Forever", "We're Going To Be Friends", "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" are great.

Rust In Peace by Megadeth
Feb 14 2021

One of the best metal albums of all time!

Hms Fable by Shack
Feb 21 2021

A couple of really good songs ("Captain's Table", "Streets Of Kenny") but largely generic, forgettable late 90's modern rock (1998). Not bad, not great.

69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields
Feb 22 2021

Some gems on this - really lovely songs - but overall just too damn long. Yes, I get the point.

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Feb 23 2021

An early aughts indie classic, obviously.

Oedipus Schmoedipus by Barry Adamson
Feb 26 2021

Quasi-cinematic music for a film that doesn't exist. Interesting, diverse and noir-ish sounds. Nick Cave guests on "The Sweetest Embrace".

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Feb 27 2021

The album that broke Marley to the masses. While I prefer the earlier, skankier shit it's an undeniable classic.

Public Image: First Issue by Public Image Ltd.
Mar 01 2021

An album that charted the course of post-punk. "Theme" is fantastic. "Public Image" anticipates Sonic Youth.

Remain In Light by Talking Heads
Mar 02 2021

Great, great album. An absolute classic.

Moon Safari by Air
Mar 04 2021

Phenomenal debut. I fucking love Air.

Olympia 64 by Jacques Brel
Mar 05 2021

Hell of a voice. Simply not my thing.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Mar 06 2021

Edgeless boring uninteresting dreck

Autobahn by Kraftwerk
Mar 07 2021

1973 unbelievable

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Mar 15 2021

Early Bob is best Bob
