Popular Reviews

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs by Derek & The Dominos

A few decent songs. Plenty of bland twaddle. And Clapton is a racist piece of shit, so I won't listen again

Suede by Suede

Another "great riffs, shame about the singer" album/band

1-Star Albums (25)

All Ratings (435)

Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin
Nov 10 2021

Some real classics. A few bits of filler

Let England Shake by PJ Harvey
Nov 11 2021

Nothing to get excited about. A couple of good riffs but never built on

The Man Who by Travis
Nov 12 2021

Catchy jangly songs are quite good. Other songs are too dull

A Seat at the Table by Solange
Nov 15 2021

Some really good tunes. I find the monologues a bit "heard it before". Voice sounds very derivative

The Doors by The Doors
Nov 16 2021

The occasional catchy riff hidden behind a tidal wave of self importance from Jim. It's like Morrissey and the Smiths only 10x worse

I Should Coco by Supergrass
Nov 18 2021

Great fun. Couple of loose ones

I'm Your Man by Leonard Cohen
Nov 22 2021

Mediocre music. With added dreary voice. And then it's all just the dreary voice

Abbey Road by Beatles
Nov 25 2021

Great songs and filler

Killing Joke by Killing Joke
Nov 26 2021

In the context of 1980 I can see why this was groundbreaking and influenced the whole industrial genre. It's just not my thing

Tapestry by Carole King
Nov 30 2021

Pleasant enough tunes for background noise.

Kenya by Machito
Dec 07 2021

Fun but not great depth or quality

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
Dec 09 2021

Surprisingly good

Suede by Suede
Dec 14 2021

Another "great riffs, shame about the singer" album/band

Ingenue by k.d. lang
Dec 16 2021

Beautiful

Dec 17 2021

Siri, what does music sound like if a band listens to Parklife on repeat and then hear Sham 69 just as they walk into the studio?

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Dec 22 2021

Odd. What is it? Prog rock for the impatient?

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Dec 28 2021
Smash by The Offspring
Jan 06 2022
Jan 07 2022

Dreary indie lo-fi drudge through someone's freshman college notebook that should have been burned a long time before it was used as inspiration for this turgid collection of half ideas mismatched to another group of half ideas created in the presence of musical instruments via some apparently random process

Idlewild by Everything But The Girl
Jan 13 2022
Emperor Tomato Ketchup by Stereolab
Jan 21 2022

Interesting bass. The drummer seems bored. Was not ready for whimsical French vocals

Fuzzy by Grant Lee Buffalo
Feb 02 2022

Competent enough, just not my thing. Didn't speak to me

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs by Derek & The Dominos
Feb 03 2022

Life Thru A Lens by Robbie Williams
Oct 24 2023

For a top pop artist there are just a lot of unmemorable tunes. Even Angels feels a bit unengaging listening on your own.

War by U2
