Popular Reviews

Not for everyone, but one of the best examples of its genre. Also helped popularize extended range guitars in metal.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers

Absolute classic. One of the best albums of the 90s

Gris Gris by Dr. John

Practically unlistenable

Actually by Pet Shop Boys

Kinda shit

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake

Having not heard of Nick Drake, I judged the album by its cover and was not looking forward to listening However, upon listening I was blown away by the musicianship and song writing.

Mmm jazz

Armed Forces by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
May 18 2021

Forgettable, did not hold my interest.

May 20 2021

Not for everyone, but one of the best examples of its genre. Also helped popularize extended range guitars in metal.

May 21 2021

Sounds like a band you would hear playing a local bar. Overall very average, not sure why they got famous other bring pretty of the grunge wave.

Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt
May 27 2021

Did not enjoy. In some areas it sounded like a film score without a film, but not in a good way.

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
May 28 2021

Some killer but quite a lot of filler.

Slipknot by Slipknot
Jun 03 2021

Great album but not their best. I can understand why this album and style of music isn't for everyone.

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Jun 07 2021

Not bad, but not interesting.

No Other by Gene Clark
Jun 09 2021

I enjoyed this more than I thought I would after listening to the first song.

Marquee Moon by Television
Jun 14 2021

Good, not really my thing but a solid album and I can see how people would really enjoy this.

Suzanne Vega by Suzanne Vega
Jun 16 2021

Ok album, did not grab me.

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Jun 17 2021

Paint it Black! And 10 other songs.

Sister by Sonic Youth
Jun 22 2021

Ok

Endtroducing..... by DJ Shadow
Jun 23 2021

Judging by the cover and date of release, I was expecting East coast hip hop. I was pleasantly surprised, with the instrumental chill hop vibes.

Bug by Dinosaur Jr.
Jun 29 2021
Smash by The Offspring
Jul 01 2021

Classic 90s punk rock. Still full of bangers

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jul 02 2021

Absolute classic. One of the best albums of the 90s

Kala by M.I.A.

Dad rock

Nirvana's best studio album

Psychocandy by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Jul 19 2021

Forgettable

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Jul 21 2021

Only just listenable, highly repetitive, singer has droning flat voice. Really did not enjoy. I was excited when the Smiths came up, as a band I knew of by reputation only and am familiar with some of Johnny Marr's other works but was super disappointed by this album.

Murder Ballads by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Jul 26 2021

Good but not my favourite Nick Cave album.

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Aug 30 2021

Classic album

Gris Gris by Dr. John
Sep 02 2021

Bert Jansch by Bert Jansch
Sep 08 2021

Skilled musician, boring music.

At Budokan by Cheap Trick
Sep 14 2021

Its a live album...

Disraeli Gears by Cream
Sep 22 2021

Mother's Lament sucks and drags the whole album down 1 star. Otherwise, just average blues rock. Sunshine of Your Love is the highlight.

Shaft by Isaac Hayes
Oct 05 2021

Probably a good soundtrack, a bit boring to listen on its own. The main theme is a cultural icon.

Bummed by Happy Mondays
Oct 06 2021

Uninspired

Play by Moby
Oct 13 2021

Gets repetitive.

1984 by Van Halen
Oct 14 2021

Classic album by a legend, however it's is overrated. Best song: Hot for Teacher

Closer by Joy Division
Oct 19 2021

Repetitive in a bad way

Pretenders by Pretenders
Oct 21 2021

Way better than expected

Tical by Method Man
Nov 10 2021
Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Nov 16 2021

Same same sounding background type music, lots of covers

Synchronicity by The Police
Nov 18 2021

Awesome album but Mother drags the whole album down 1 star

GI by Germs

Decent album hampered by very poor production value

Bryter Layter by Nick Drake

My second favourite Nick Drake album
