Popular Reviews

Our Aim Is To Satisfy by Red Snapper

this is weird and what I'd expect from like a warehouse scene in the Matrix

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett

Piano-instrument only which I love. Easy to listen to and have on in the background.

Astral Weeks by Van Morrison

What a pleasant album! Astral Weeks is a great track to start this off. Very easy to listen to.

Dr. Octagonecologyst by Dr. Octagon

I like this album - Earth People was a spooky fun track. I like the start of Blue Flowers too - it's a vibe. Overall reminds me of OG Outkast

Nov 10 2021

Roll with it is a great track. Very 90s nostalgic feel and very beatles-esque. Dont look back in Anger is also a banger. Wonderwall isn't the best track on this album!!

The Hour Of Bewilderbeast by Badly Drawn Boy
Nov 11 2021

This is very easy to listen to, very 90s feel. This is easy to have on in the background when working. This Song sounds like something that would play in a coffee shop.

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Nov 12 2021

Piano-instrument only which I love. Easy to listen to and have on in the background.

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Nov 16 2021

I already knew I loved this album, but I found a few new solid hits. Mystery Man was a surprise for me.

Nov 17 2021

Spotify is crumbling and I can't listen to this! From what I've heard so far I love the vibe, and already know Doo Wop is a 90s fave. To Zion has a cool sound and features carlos santana - I like that one a lot.

Life's Too Good by The Sugarcubes
Nov 18 2021

Very unsure about this album at first listen. A little harmonica action and faint yelling at the beginning of Traitor. No idea what they are saying. It's really whiny and screamy. I don't think I like this.

Elvis Is Back by Elvis Presley
Nov 19 2021

I am loving this album. So many good ones on this and I can just envision my grandma dancing in her kitchen to this album <3 A few tracks I like are Thrill of Your Love;

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
Nov 23 2021

This is the guy that does the true detective intro songs! Not something I would listen to a lot but a cool sound

Disraeli Gears by Cream
Nov 24 2021

Very 60s psychedelic which obviously look at the album art. I am vibing with this one for sure. Sunshine of your love makes me feel cool when I listen to it

Psychocandy by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Nov 25 2021

Very 80s rock vibe with a heavy guitar. I like it! Cut Dead is sooo easy to listen to. There is this like whistling guitar sound that I don't much care for in some of the songs like Inside Me.

Astral Weeks by Van Morrison
Nov 30 2021

What a pleasant album! Astral Weeks is a great track to start this off. Very easy to listen to.

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Dec 01 2021

Wow I DO know this. Aqualung is a classic song... love it. Cross eyed mary reminds me of Jack Black in School of Rock lol. Cheap Day Return is a softer song. Does Up to Me have a jazz flute??

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Dec 02 2021

This album has a very easy to listen to sound, but the words are so sad. I need to listen a few times to get the meaning.

Dec 03 2021

I'm not sure about this one... very easy to have on in the background. Maybe I'm uncultured but it's not really my jam.

Machine Head by Deep Purple
Dec 06 2021

I would never have guessed this album is from 1972! Way ahead of their time and very metal rock. Smooooooke on the waaaaater

Made In Japan by Deep Purple
Dec 07 2021

Maybe I would have liked this more if I hadn't listened to the other deep purple album the day before this

Tago Mago by Can
Dec 08 2021

This album is what I think of when I hear the word groovy. I love the sounds, unsure what the words are, but that's cool

Beyond Skin by Nitin Sawhney
Dec 09 2021

I want to like this, but it sounds like elevator music to me.

Rio by Duran Duran
Dec 10 2021

Yes I like this. Very 80s.

Debut by Björk
Dec 13 2021

I don't think so. Sorry Bjork.

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Dec 14 2021

This is sooo easy to listen to. I love it for working, for needing a cozy listen, or a soft background sound.

At Budokan by Cheap Trick
Dec 16 2021

i want you to want me is the only one i enjoyed unfortunately. it wasn't bad! just wasn't special IMO

Dec 17 2021

Main vocals are all over the place which makes it exciting to listen to; the keys? i'm unsure which instrument gives this a distinct sound. I really like The Good Thing

The Modern Lovers by The Modern Lovers
Dec 21 2021

Omg - this lead singer sounds like Fred Armisen... or maybe Fred is impersonating this lead singer lol. Either way it was very hard to take seriously. Shoot I feel uncultured, but I don't really like this.

Appetite For Destruction by Guns N' Roses
Dec 22 2021

Yes. Yes. Yes! I love Guns n Roses and squealed when I saw this as my album of the day. WHAT A TREAT

Cafe Bleu by The Style Council
Dec 23 2021

This is a very easy listen and one of my favorites so far.

Black Monk Time by The Monks
Dec 24 2021

I'm unsure about this one. I don't think I'll remember it

At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Dec 28 2021

Wow this has sooo much energy - I love it! The 25 minutes to go song was moving - especially if anyone on death row was attending that concert. What a great listen.

A Northern Soul by The Verve
Dec 29 2021

This is the band that sings Bittersweet Symphony! I'm expecting some 90s nostalgic vibes. Did not disappoint!

Repeater by Fugazi
Dec 30 2021

This is too much for me - it's like a wale-y guitar and screaming, and are they speaking english? I'm not sure.

Dec 31 2021

The Girl from Impanea is a classic! I feel like I've heard a lot of these from movies. Makes me want to drink a martini and hit the dance floor and sit in a big red leather booth.

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Jan 03 2022

So far away starts off strong for me. A little twangy, charming, easy to listen to. Money for Nothing is a classic!

Murmur by R.E.M.
Jan 04 2022

I like the sound - very 80s. Not a super memorable album but I liked it. Catapult was a good track.

Rattlesnakes by Lloyd Cole And The Commotions
Jan 06 2022

This sounds like such 80s rock - it’s fun. Easy to listen to. Audio sounds far away with an echo. The track rattlesnakes has a different sound than the rest (at first)

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Jan 10 2022

This is one of my favorites! So charming, lightweight, and easy to listen to.

Garbage by Garbage
Jan 11 2022

This is a decent album! Garbage live made me appreciate this more but not like a super fave

Time (The Revelator) by Gillian Welch
Jan 12 2022

This is a VIBE. I love the guitar solos and acoustic sound. This is one I will definitely listen to again and again. My first lover had this down south sound to it.

Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine
Jan 13 2022

This album makes me want to RAAAGE... against the machine. I envision some gnarly workouts to this album in my near future.

Stankonia by OutKast
Jan 14 2022

Oh I am exciiiiited to see this one! Reminds me of middle school. Gasoline Dreams is very 90s hip hop. Each track is so different. I love this album. I will say I appreciate this a lot more now than I did 10 years ago at Coachella lol

OK Computer by Radiohead
Jan 17 2022

Karma police is a classic. I appreciate Radiohead. It’s a go to when I’m feeling in my feelings just a little somber for when I’m in a good mood

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
Jan 18 2022

Ok yes this is very good! Lyrics are strong, love the guitar (obviously) and feel badass listening to this

Jan 19 2022

Love me an ambient album!! Always nice to have one of these on hand for work days. I'm surprised this was made in '92 because the tracks sound like the EDM hits I would listen to today. Must have been part of that inspiration. Green Calx was too techno-y

Oar by Alexander 'Skip' Spence
Jan 20 2022

A bit slow and dreary for me. Has a country twang to it. Decent album

Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Jan 21 2022

AC/DC is one of my favorite bands. I saw them perform at coachella and they NAILED it. I feel lucky to have seen them. <3

Sunshine Superman by Donovan
Jan 24 2022

This man is the definition of a hippie and I love it. Had no idea he had these songs that I've heard for forever.

Achtung Baby by U2
Jan 25 2022

Solid album. Not super memorable for me, but I of course like the song One. The whole vibe is very 90s so ya know I love that part!

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Jan 26 2022

You are the sunshine of my life was a great way to start this album. Swoon!

Morrison Hotel by The Doors
Jan 27 2022

Roadhouse blues is a vibe! love this album so far

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Jan 28 2022

I fucking hated A Reflection I also don't typically like 80s rock and I don't think this is an exception lol One thing I thought was interesting is the vocals from Play for Today reminded me a bit of the emo music I listened to in the mid 2000s

The Undertones by The Undertones
Jan 31 2022

I can see why this is on this list. The vocals feel very 70s rock, as do a lot of the instruments, but there are pockets of the chaos that comes with 80s rock. I won't listen to this album again and it's not my cup of tea, but I respect it.

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Feb 01 2022

Greatest blues singer in tha wooorrrrlddddd BB King! I love a live album. Feels like I was there! This is a fun one and carries so much energy.

Madman Across The Water by Elton John
Feb 02 2022

Starting with Tiny Dancer was baller. Piano focused of course and feels less theatrical than Bennie and rocketman. Levon is my new fave Elton jam. Beautifully written!

Life Thru A Lens by Robbie Williams
Feb 03 2022

This album isn't on Spotify that I could find, but I found a playlist with most of the tracks. The sound of this reminds me a bit of U2. I like it so far.

Hearts And Bones by Paul Simon
Feb 04 2022

Interesting sound - unique from what I've heard. Song about the moon is my favorite so far

Feb 07 2022

Dark messages has a sound bath type vibe to it. Whole album feels like a soundtrack or score to a movie (JUST REALIZED THEY ACTUALLY DID THE VIRGIN SUICIDES SCORE DUH). Playground Love is the only familiar one to me, but I like that track. The album gets more haunting as it progresses. Empty house is a track I want to listen to when I'm reading a spooky story.

Dust by Screaming Trees
Feb 08 2022

you already know I'm a sucker for 90s alternative baybeeeee. This did not disappoint. I'll definitely put it in my moody rotation.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Feb 09 2022

So far I am viiibing with this. I can't quite tell when I would listen to it again because it is such a distinct sound. I feel like maybe when cooking, or if I were like an uber driver

Sheet Music by 10cc
Feb 10 2022

wall street shuffle starts off with a bang for me. hotel is a weird track for me. Wow this album becomes weirder as it progresses lol. Silly Love reminds me of a Queen song and also reminds me of Pat Benatar's guitar riff in Heartbreaker. Wonder if that's why this is on here!

Alien Lanes by Guided By Voices
Feb 11 2022

I can see myself listening to this again.

Boston by Boston
Feb 14 2022

This album is iconic. Not sure if I'm in a good mood since it's Friday, but this shiz is hittin all da spots I ain't even know was there

Feb 15 2022

This is a solid album and I had no idea this was Rod Stewart. It makes me weirdly nostalgic even though I wasn't alive when this came out. Easy listening and reminds me of summer.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Feb 18 2022

This is a classic for me!! What a tragic and beautiful and somehow fun album

Blackstar by David Bowie
Feb 21 2022

I have to be honest, I love David Bowie, but this album is not it for me. I’ll give it three because of the legend of Bowie. RIP

Disintegration by The Cure
Feb 22 2022

Hmm I’m surprisingly into this. So easy to listen to, great instrumentals, vocals are solid.

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Feb 23 2022

this is definitely one I will listen to again. i felt cool having this on my spotify

Blur by Blur
Feb 24 2022

This is an incredible album. Song 2? I had no idea!

Elephant by The White Stripes
Feb 25 2022

I mean, Seven Nation Army will always be a classic. I love the white stripes! Such a unique sound.

Odelay by Beck
Feb 28 2022

you already KNOW i love me a 90s alternative rock album babyyyyy. Devil's haircut is nostalgic for me. Hotwax is great! the guitar riff in the beginning reminds me of a late 70s classic rock vibe. The vocals are kind of like spoken word. love it.

Mar 01 2022

Time and Money are classics. Great gig in the sky is hard to listen to. Us and them is a good song too!

Power In Numbers by Jurassic 5
Mar 02 2022

I have never heard this artist/band before. So far I like it - Freedom is a good track. Very late 90s hip hop vibes. I like the difference in voices - they contrast each other. Nevermind I HAVE heard this band before. What's Golden!!

Sound Affects by The Jam
Mar 03 2022

Not me cup o' tea, but sounds quality enough. Can't decipher a single lyric though

Lazer Guided Melodies by Spiritualized
Mar 04 2022

Unique sound... not sure I will listen to this again...

The Man Who by Travis
Mar 08 2022

Wow this sounds like if Oasis and Aqualung had a baby.

Suede by Suede
Mar 09 2022

There may be too much british rock on this album list for my taste lol I like the track So Young but the whiny singing is too much for me

Triangle by The Beau Brummels
Mar 10 2022

Ooo I like this! I had never heard of this band, but it's good! Very folky 60s rock

Celebrity Skin by Hole
Mar 15 2022

I couldn't find the "hole" album, but I love the song Celebrity Skin. Also, I'm uncultured... had no idea this was Courtney Love

New York Dolls by New York Dolls
Mar 16 2022

woah this seems very ahead of its time. I would have guessed glam rock. Not an album I need to listen to again, but nice for a first listen.

Mar 17 2022

This has a twang to it I wasn't expecting - I like it! I think I'll listen to this one again.

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Mar 18 2022

HELL YES. Chain of fools is a bop. What a talented queen

The Pleasure Principle by Gary Numan
Mar 22 2022

This feels really ahead of the time for a 1979 album. I recognize several tracks: Cars and M.E.. I like this album because it's still recognizable to me, but I don't believe it's one I will listen to again as it's not my preference.

The Slider by T. Rex
Mar 23 2022

I really like this one!

Mar 24 2022

hell yeah! love Hole (who I learned about three days ago when Celebrity Skin was introduced to me lol)

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Mar 28 2022

Oasis songs all sound pretty similar, but with that, it is easy listening. Solid album

Van Halen by Van Halen
Mar 29 2022

this album is ICONIC

Our Aim Is To Satisfy by Red Snapper
Mar 30 2022

this is weird and what I'd expect from like a warehouse scene in the Matrix

Iron Maiden by Iron Maiden
Mar 31 2022

I don't think I've ever heard an Iron Maiden song... I like it. 80s glam metal rock is more my vibe than the other types of 80s rock. Damn that guitar riff in Prowler....

Mott by Mott The Hoople
Apr 01 2022

I really like the first track on this album, but it doesn't strike me as a special album.

Nothing's Shocking by Jane's Addiction
Apr 04 2022

I actually REALLY like this and wasn't expecting to. I don't know if I could listen to the whole album at one time, but it's fun and the lyrics are strong. Jane Says is great

Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin
Apr 05 2022

This album is great! Not shocked given the artist

Bad Company by Bad Company
Apr 07 2022

I like this - easy classic rock vibes.

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs
May 20 2022

I loove this vibe! Wll definitely listen again

Pretenders by Pretenders
May 23 2022

Eh it's fine

Blue by Joni Mitchell
May 24 2022

I think because of the spotify drama I had to listen to this on YouTube.. so far I like it! I wish I could play it on Spotify. Her voice is a little weird and I need to get used to it. I actually can't get through this album, nevermind.

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
May 25 2022
Pump by Aerosmith
May 27 2022

I think I have to give this 4 just because some of these tracks are classic. I don't know that I will listen to it again, but I respect it.

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
May 31 2022

This is one of my favorite albums. I saw them live at Coachella one year and was in awe of their talent.

The White Album by Beatles
Jun 01 2022

back in the USSR is very beach boy vibes. Each track has its own sound which I love

Legalize It by Peter Tosh
Jun 02 2022

This feels so cutting edge for the time, the sound, the album cover. I would have thought this was a late 80s or 90s album. I like it!

Dr. Octagonecologyst by Dr. Octagon
Jun 03 2022

I like this album - Earth People was a spooky fun track. I like the start of Blue Flowers too - it's a vibe. Overall reminds me of OG Outkast

Cross by Justice
Jun 06 2022

I'm familiar with the track D.A.N.C.E - the album is a little bit much for me and a headache, but well done. I get the appeal.

Jun 09 2022

Freak on a leash is a classic to me - the rest are a bit too intense

Jun 10 2022

I don't think 60s rock is for me in general. Ok Picture Book is good. You really got me! I didn't realize that was them. Nice. All Day and All of the Night is also a banger. And Lola! Granted their main hits aren't on this album so I can't rate this current album too high

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
Jun 13 2022

You already know I love this album. I remember listening to it in college. Bitch don't kill my vibe, backseat freestyle, swimming pools, poetic justice. Kendrick is a legend

Truth by Jeff Beck
Jun 14 2022

I actually really like this. It's bluesy rock and easy to listen to.

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Jun 15 2022

I think this was my first exposure to Kanye.. was this his first album? I'll always remember jesus walks and all falls down

Bubble And Scrape by Sebadoh
Jun 16 2022

Soul and Fire is a great track. Easy 90s rock to listen to. Oh the rest of this album is not great.

Little Earthquakes by Tori Amos
Jun 17 2022

Oh I LOVE this!! I don't think I've heard of Tori Amos before.

Queen II by Queen
Jun 20 2022

QUEEN IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE BAND. BLESS YOU FOR THIS GIFT THIS FRIDAY. Transparently I'm a fraud because I'm realizing I know none of these tracks. Father to Son is a great track

Joan Baez by Joan Baez
Jun 22 2022

she has a nice voice but this simply is not for me

Melodrama by Lorde
Jun 24 2022

This album is super easy to listen to. I of course like greenlight because I'm a basic betch. Homemade dynamite is a great track.

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
Jun 28 2022

this is funky!! Also I lol at this artist's name because it reminds me of the scene in Tommy Boy when he thinks Herbie Hancock is the first person who signed the declaration of independence. Watermelon Man reminds me of the white lotus soundtrack

The Only Ones by The Only Ones
Jun 30 2022

my god the Whole of the Law track was awful. SuuPpeEer wAAVvy sounding and not good. Another Girl Another Planet is a decent track. I like it. City of Fun has a great start to it.

Phrenology by The Roots
Jul 01 2022

The Seed 2.0 is a great track. The vibe is very rap/rock and I'm into it. Giving a three because I don't see myself listening to the album again.

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
Jul 04 2022

Do it again is a classic as is Dirty Work. I love this album!!

Horses by Patti Smith
Jul 05 2022

I am simply not a fan

Idlewild by Everything But The Girl
Jul 06 2022

A little elevator musicy. Not my fave

Violator by Depeche Mode
Jul 07 2022

I appreciate depeche mode but their sound isn't something I would listen to regularly.

Penance Soiree by The Icarus Line
Jul 08 2022

this is something I could work out to. Rock focused - sounds like the time early 2000s

Run-D.M.C. by Run-D.M.C.
Jul 11 2022

I will admit their flow is a little repetitive, but I respect the uniqueness of their sound. You always know when it's Run DMC.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Jul 12 2022

Brown Sugar is a great way to start this album. I like this track! I will definitely listen to this album again.

The Rising by Bruce Springsteen
Oct 02 2023

very soothing and easy to listen to, but not something I will likely play again.

Oct 04 2023

Not sure I will listen to this again, but I appreciated this album for how real it felt. I think I would enjoy seeing this man live.

Protection by Massive Attack
Oct 06 2023

this is trip hop as they say with a little soul. i've truly never heard this before in my life.

Aja by Steely Dan
Oct 10 2023

you know I love steely dan! Not sure I will listen again, but enjoyed the tracks I heard

Sister by Sonic Youth
Oct 12 2023

This is my vibe! 90s alt before the 90s

Heroes by David Bowie
Oct 16 2023

very 80s experimental; I love the song heroes!

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Oct 17 2023

very dirty dancing vibes! love this. also reminds me of grandma and papa

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Jan 29 2024

I love the yeah yeah yeahs!! This album was a fave when I was in middle school. Maps and the date with the knife song made a cameo on my myspace profile.
