First Band On The Moon by The Cardigans
Jun 29 2022

First review can't go too crazy. I'd always thought Lovefool was by Sophie Ellis Bextor! Everyday a school day. Favourite track - Your New Cuckoo

Post Orgasmic Chill by Skunk Anansie
Jan 19 2023

Love the breakbeat intros on some of the tracks. Vocalist gives me Joss Stone vibes Fave track - On My Hotel TV

1989 by Taylor Swift
Jan 20 2023

Was very open minded before hand. Silly little me. Major poo poo album. Fave track - Shake It Off

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Jan 21 2023

Indie noise. Been doing lower case since 1991 No favourite track

Killing Joke by Killing Joke
Jan 25 2023

Pretty sick. Is it Punk maybe? Industrial sound and slightly groovy Fave track - Change

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Jan 26 2023

Mehhh not for me, I like a few Metallica songs but none from this album

The Wildest! by Louis Prima
Jan 27 2023

Quite enjoyed. First few songs felt a bit #racise Strong recovery afterwards Fave song - banana split for my baby

Entertainment by Gang Of Four
Jan 28 2023

Sick punk album. Best feeling ever when you find the origin of popular samples. Fave track - damaged goods

Jan 29 2023

Poor start but gets a bit groovy Enjoyed but don’t recall a stand out track

Guitar Town by Steve Earle
Jan 30 2023

Genuine Hilbilly music

Rattus Norvegicus by The Stranglers
Jan 31 2023

Quite enjoyed it, again recognised a few of the tracks but never knew the names. Fave track - Peaches

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Feb 01 2023

This album is a five. The triple snare drum into one of the grooviest riffs of all time to open the album on 'Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' is otherworldly People were actually telling man to 'Beat It' back in the day. Thriller, Billie Jean, even Paul McCartney does his ting on The Girl is Mine. Masterpiece. Fave track - P.Y.T

Marquee Moon by Television
Feb 03 2023

"I hear that she likes to dance around the room, to a worn out 12-inch of Marquee Moon" Think 2.5 would be fair Fave track - Marquee Moon

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Feb 04 2023

I listened to one track, the first one. The 26 minute long one

Moon Safari by Air
Feb 05 2023

Nice switch up, can't give more than a two

Feb 06 2023

Really cool dance Album. Mylo really had some heaters. Fave track - Drop The Pressure

Dust by Screaming Trees
Feb 07 2023

Started strong but faded out. Not too bad. Fave track - Halo of Ashes

The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy
Feb 10 2023

Bangin album. Fire starter vid one of the most iconic from my childhood Fave track - smack my bitch up

Dance Mania by Tito Puente
Feb 13 2023

Was nice enough, feel the sounds sorta merged into one after a while. 2.5 would be fair

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Feb 14 2023

The meme cover album! Very moody. Headman sounds like Stan Marsh at times. Not a big fan.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Feb 15 2023

A man said "sUnShyiiiiien" Never really been an Oasis fan but was pleasantly surprised. Fave track - Supersonic

B-52's by The B-52's
Feb 17 2023

Weirdo geezer

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Feb 20 2023

Very nice switch up. Easy listening yet complex in structure. Lovely vocals too. Fave track - Taaw

Crosby, Stills & Nash by Crosby, Stills & Nash
Feb 22 2023

I was going to skip this one... but didn't. Pleasantly surprised

Here, My Dear by Marvin Gaye
Feb 23 2023

Kinda gay hahaha But seriously, enjoyed a few songs but it did go on for a bit Fave track - When did you stop loving me

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Feb 24 2023

God dayummmm that was pretty underwhelming. Big Stevie W ya reckon... Other than the obvious I felt it was pretty boring. 2.5 rounded down. Fave track - Superstition

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy
Feb 25 2023

Wow. Great skits, deep lyricism. Tackles social issues and the plight of AA's in the early 90s. Despite touching on heavy topics the record comes across as fun as opposed to preachy. Messages still completely relevant today. Fave track - Who stole the soul?

Palo Congo by Sabu
Feb 27 2023

50% rabble. The songs that aren’t chanting are pretty kewl

Moondance by Van Morrison
Mar 11 2023

I've been away but Henry's 5* drew me to this one. Quite liked it, Moondance the stand out track. Feel the album faded towards the end and lost a bit of funk

Nevermind by Nirvana
Mar 19 2023

I believe the hype. These man were going crazy on this one

Queens of the Stone Age by Queens Of The Stone Age
Mar 20 2023

Loads of solid, recognisable riffs. Enjoyed this one

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Mar 25 2023

Wow what a record. Stronger Than Me into You Sent ME Flying/Cherry is a ridiculous opening. I felt the tracks may have been a bit long but the soundcloud era has damaged my attention span. Long Live Amy

Be by Common
Mar 28 2023

The Chicago Avengers got together to make this one. A fresh-faced, hungry Kanye West on production and Common barring like his life was on the line. One of my fave rap albums. Fave track - Go
