Once by Nightwish

Symphonic Metal on its way to become my guilty pleasure. Great compositions, versatile and entertaining

Peasant by Richard Dawson

I hoped that after the original list we were done with folk. Unfortunately not. I don't get this pseudo-renaissancy music, it's boring, annoying and unoriginal.

What kind of music do you wanna play? - Metal! - Jazz! - Funk! - Guitar Pop-Rock! OK, fine let's do them all!

Tomb by Angelo De Augustine

You own a hipster café and want some easily digestible background music? Here you go!

Night Drive by Chromatics
Mar 26 2024

Never heard of this band before. Excellent composing, pleasant electronic music and one outstanding cover version :)

Cleopatra by The Lumineers
Mar 27 2024

Apple commercial? "Alternative" coffee shop? Melancholic hipster? Here's the soundtrack.

After Hours by The Weeknd
Mar 28 2024

Powerful beats, great voice, fantastic to listen to.

Enema Of The State by blink-182
Mar 29 2024

A finde piece of commercially viable college skate punk. Quite entertaining

Sublime by Sublime
Mar 30 2024

That album screams 90's guitar-rock/pop/ska/whatever

Tomb by Angelo De Augustine

Nurture by Porter Robinson

Hand. Cannot. Erase. by Steven Wilson

Apr 11 2024

Masterpiece. Still an bsolute banger.

Control by Pedro The Lion
Apr 13 2024
Vedergällningen by Garmarna
Apr 14 2024

Great first half, like less fairytale-y and more straightforward Bjørk. Second half unfortunately too folksy...

Emotional Mugger by Ty Segall
Apr 23 2024

A good one for this genre. Monotonous at times, but pleasant.

Come And Get It by Rachel Stevens
Apr 24 2024

It's pop music. Never heard of this artist before, most likely won't in the future. However, album was pleasant entertainment.

May 03 2024

Strong start, some nice tunes, however a bit too inconsistent

Englabörn by Jóhann Jóhannsson
May 08 2024

It's great music, no doubt. However, 90 minutes of it without the play it was composed for, oomph.

Korn by Korn

Solid.

Nail by Scraping Foetus off the Wheel
