Popular Reviews

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs by Derek & The Dominos

A classic, but some of these songs go on a bit long. I like Clapton but there's a bit too much noodling for me at certain points

The Real Thing by Faith No More

I loved the punch this album had. Each song was different, Epic is still a banger but then right after you have Falling to Pieces which sounds like its out of a thrash band. The vocals are what keeps everything tied together and feeling like a band, but I loved this album.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers

I was amazed how many hits were on this album

Yeah, I mean this definitely feels like its from the 2000s. I can see how this influenced music, but the sound is almost too nostalgic for my tastes now. Probably because I didn't grow up listening to it, so I don't have the connection

May 13 2021

It's okay, I mean it sounds like that era of music. Some good songs like Waterloo Sunset and Lazy Old Sun

Moss Side Story by Barry Adamson
May 14 2021

What is this? Why is this? It's so confusing and so expansive across music styles. It sounds like video game soundtrack music sometimes

1977 by Ash
May 18 2021
Bummed by Happy Mondays

May 25 2021

This is some interesting Irish music for sure. I can see how it influenced other irish bands in the future like Flogging Molly, etc.

Parklife by Blur
May 26 2021

Some definite Gorillaz notes, but some other general weirdness

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
May 27 2021

I was amazed how many hits were on this album

B-52's by The B-52's

Street Life by The Crusaders
Jun 02 2021

This is some slappin' Jazz

Superfuzz Bigmuff by Mudhoney
Jun 03 2021

Still haven't been able to fully finish it, which must mean I don't like it that much

Trafalgar by Bee Gees
Jun 08 2021

Interesting that this was by the Bee Gees

Goodbye And Hello by Tim Buckley
Jun 10 2021

It seemed like a nice album of the times

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Jun 14 2021
Bug by Dinosaur Jr.
Jul 02 2021
I Against I by Bad Brains
Jul 05 2021

What a surprise from 1986. I thought this record was fun, and had some punk and solos to it.

Risque by CHIC
Jul 07 2021

Classic music for classic times

Pornography by The Cure
Jul 15 2021

So this led me to the album before this from the Cure which I liked more, but I thought the cure sad tones really come through here

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs by Derek & The Dominos
Jul 19 2021

A classic, but some of these songs go on a bit long. I like Clapton but there's a bit too much noodling for me at certain points

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Jul 20 2021

The horns are ridiculous. It sounds like Donkey Kong level music. But it also has funky upstroke guitar.

Homework by Daft Punk
Jul 21 2021

Love daft punk

Deserter's Songs by Mercury Rev
Jul 22 2021

The funny bird was nice, added it to a playlist, but I just couldn't gel with this album

Live! by Fela Kuti
Jul 23 2021

It was alright, not for me

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Jul 26 2021

What a fantastic album. Loved it

Liege And Lief by Fairport Convention
Jul 27 2021

This is for someone, but not for me.

Berlin by Lou Reed
Jul 28 2021
Shake Your Money Maker by The Black Crowes
Jul 29 2021

So it's got that one classic song on it. I was surprised that this came out in 90. It definitely seems older. It's not exactly for me, but its all over the place.

Nixon by Lambchop
Jul 30 2021

I don't like this very much

It's A Shame About Ray by The Lemonheads
Aug 03 2021

It's pretty good. I don't know, it's not my favorite. But I enjoyed the time we spent together.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Aug 04 2021

Front to back, an absolute banger of an album. I will be spinning this for many days to come!

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Aug 05 2021

This has some absolute classics on it, but its also got some cringe lyrics on some of these tracks at this point in 2021.

Moving Pictures by Rush
Aug 06 2021

Absolute classic full of Rush hits. Sure, the lyrics are pretty ridiculous, and Geddy's vocal style are odd, but that's what makes Rush, Rush. Front to back classic good Rush. 5/5

Tidal by Fiona Apple
Aug 10 2021

I was surprised by how much I ended up enjoying this album!

Aug 11 2021

I was surprised that this was their first album. Everything that seems to have come out in '69 was a total banger. Flailing Guitar, good flow, enjoyed it!

Aja by Steely Dan
Aug 12 2021

Classic jams on here. It's yacht rock, but it's solid

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Aug 13 2021

Full of classic songs, but the really long Shine On you Crazy Diamond is just too much for me.

Your Arsenal by Morrissey
Aug 16 2021

I actually really enjoyed this

The La's by The La's
Aug 18 2021

The album starts pretty strong with Son of a Gun into I can't sleep. There She Goes is a 90 movies classic bop.

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Aug 23 2021

I love the wild opening. Track 2 gives Doors vibes The bass on every single beat is pretty overkill in the middle of the album. The back end of the album picks up and I'm a fan of Interzone's punchiness

Odelay by Beck
Aug 24 2021

There's some classics on here for sure. But I feel like I've tried listening to this a few times and its just faded into the background.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Aug 25 2021

So I think the front half of the album starts off so strong with Come Together and Something, but then with Maxwell and Octopus it's a take back to older Beatles. The B side of this album is where things really shine. Here Comes the Sun gets us going, and I love the flow of one track into another at the end of the album

The Real Thing by Faith No More
Aug 27 2021

I loved the punch this album had. Each song was different, Epic is still a banger but then right after you have Falling to Pieces which sounds like its out of a thrash band. The vocals are what keeps everything tied together and feeling like a band, but I loved this album.

Sep 14 2021

Exciting debut album from the Monkeys, but it does have a problem of songs sounding very same-y throughout the entire album which holds it back a little bit.

Moondance by Van Morrison
Sep 15 2021

I loved the title track, but the rest of the album was okay for me

Good Old Boys by Randy Newman
Sep 16 2021

This seems like the album that Billy Joel wrote the song Piano Man for. They're all weird. Everything sounds like Toy Story

Real Life by Magazine
Sep 22 2021

I love the punch of this album but it tails off around Motorcade
