Popular Reviews

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine

I appreciate the sounds they were making especially given the timeframe. They were obviously pushing the limits of the traditional rock sound, however, it's not a style I would go back to.

Black Monk Time by The Monks

What a weird and wonderful album. Can definitely feel the roots of punk rock and psychedelic in this album. Some songs sound like they could directly be the queens of the stone age

Roots by Sepultura

Really solid metal album

Definitely Maybe by Oasis

Great album all the way through, such a great sound and composition

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Sep 08 2021

Super rugged and dirty R&B sound. Nice album front to back.

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Sep 09 2021

Really beautiful album. Such an array of sounds from folk, country, rock and blues of course. Amazing so writing and vocal inflection

This Is Fats Domino by Fats Domino
Sep 12 2021

I like and respect what he does but probably not my cup of tea on a regular basis. Great soft voice

Sep 13 2021

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Sep 17 2021

I appreciate the sounds they were making especially given the timeframe. They were obviously pushing the limits of the traditional rock sound, however, it's not a style I would go back to.

The Idiot by Iggy Pop
Sep 18 2021

This is the type of music I expect to be playing on the stereo when I walk into a room full of people laying on the floor doing heroin. It's not really my style but was an interesting album nonetheless.

Black Monk Time by The Monks
Sep 19 2021

What a weird and wonderful album. Can definitely feel the roots of punk rock and psychedelic in this album. Some songs sound like they could directly be the queens of the stone age
