Feels like a passionate musical

A nice and soft album

An album for a specific mood, feels like a soundtrack to a great movie

Jul 26 2022

Beautiful voice, soft rock when it's best

Protection by Massive Attack
Jul 27 2022

Silent and slow, massive attack is not for me

wack sound

Long album, but some very interesting monologues along the way

Sound Affects by The Jam
Aug 19 2022

Can't remember a single song from my listen

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Aug 22 2022

20 minute songs of jazz. Jazz is not my cup of tea but I'm here for diversity and I think it overall was OK

Red Headed Stranger by Willie Nelson
Aug 23 2022

A good country album. Simple stuff, but it works

Paris 1919 by John Cale

Reminds me of my grandparents

Aug 30 2022

Happy fun tunes

Sep 01 2022

One of the best live albums I've heard. And I usually don't like live albums

Sep 02 2022

Lovely voice, but the album lacks variation

The Slider by T. Rex
Sep 05 2022

This album is packed with classics

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Sep 06 2022

There's a reason for their popularity. This was a great album

Pictures At An Exhibition by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Sep 08 2022

This experimental album is mostly noise except for the happy encore song at the end

The Chronic by Dr. Dre
Sep 09 2022

Sadly not available on Spotify as of September 2022. Solid album

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Sep 13 2022

Classic album, classic rock

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
Sep 14 2022

Just smooth. When you need that perfect backdrop for a good dinner.

90 by 808 State
Sep 16 2022

I'm so lost

Sep 19 2022

Lovely album with great vocals

Great album!

Very classic album with many great hits

Sep 23 2022

Unique voice, really interesting listen

Femi Kuti by Femi Kuti
Sep 26 2022

Lovely sound

Foo Fighters by Foo Fighters
Sep 27 2022

Sadly not the best Foo Fighters album, hoping for a better album later

Gold by Ryan Adams
Sep 28 2022

Judging from the other comments, I am lucky that I don't now Ryan Adams at all. So purely based on the music it is 4/5 for me. The album is too long though, not possible to listen in one day.

Ritual De Lo Habitual by Jane's Addiction
Sep 29 2022

Was surprised by this album, gonna listen again sometime

B-52's by The B-52's
Oct 03 2022

Weird but surprisingly good

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Oct 05 2022

Classic album, great listen

Now I Got Worry by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
Oct 06 2022

I instantly thought this album was bad and nothing changed during my listen.

Moon Safari by Air
Oct 10 2022

Includes some great songs but they're buried in other very uninteresting songs. Great background music for a Sunday

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Oct 11 2022

Superior voice but the album was long and felt boring at the end

Rejoicing In The Hands by Devendra Banhart
Oct 13 2022

This album really stood out with its simple acoustic guitar and unusual singing. Reminds me of an alt-J album

Moby Grape by Moby Grape
Oct 14 2022

The songs that are on Spotify are great

Drunk by Thundercat
Oct 18 2022

Had to listen multiple times to decide on this album. Rap and jazz is an interesting combo, but some of the songs were a bit too much.

Faust IV by Faust
Oct 19 2022

Very weird in an not enjoyable way

2112 by Rush
Oct 20 2022

Really enjoyable album, will come back

Cafe Bleu by The Style Council
Oct 21 2022

Very schizophrenic album. They should have stayed with the jazz tunes, I felt they did those best

Oct 24 2022

So many moving pieces - on my first listen I was overwhelmed, but with more listens I started to enjoy the album a lot.

All Things Must Pass by George Harrison
Oct 26 2022

Unusually long album. Generally great songs with some misses in the mix

En-Tact by The Shamen
Oct 27 2022

Gets better later in the album but overall it was not a good album

Being There by Wilco
Oct 28 2022

While the songs were generally nice, this album was way too long.

Nov 02 2022

Great guitar playing but when it is repeated 20 times without any real progression I get bored.

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Nov 03 2022

Two huge bangers followed by a slow album. In the end I wanted much more intensity than I got, and therefore I can only give this 3 stars.

Oar by Alexander 'Skip' Spence
Nov 04 2022

The songs of this album are odd and dark, but somehow also manages to be interesting.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Nov 07 2022

Great album

Elvis Is Back by Elvis Presley
Nov 08 2022

Solid album, great production that highlights the great voice of Elvis.

Nov 11 2022

Not my cup of tea. The overall sound was interesting, but the vocals were not great, which ruined it for me.

Aja by Steely Dan
Nov 14 2022

Perfect for a slow morning

Entertainment by Gang Of Four
Nov 15 2022

Punk is usually a pass for me, but this album feels really well produced and less gritty. Perhaps this makes it less punk, but I like it.

Darkdancer by Les Rythmes Digitales
Nov 16 2022

This really scratched an itch I didn't know I had

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Nov 17 2022

Annoying to listen to.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Nov 18 2022

Yep, this album is filled with bangers

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Nov 21 2022

I have not heard not Pink Floyd beforehand. I think the album managed to stay interesting despite its length.

Rum Sodomy & The Lash by The Pogues
Nov 22 2022

The album was well done, but apart from being in a pub, I cannot think of a time where I would seriously listen to this.

Psychocandy by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Nov 23 2022

Just Like Honey was a great start to this album, but this was unfortunately also the albums only strength. The rest of the album sounded the same, so the album got old really fast.

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
Nov 24 2022

Great album with lots of good songs and occasional less good songs

American Pie by Don McLean
Nov 30 2022

This is a very pleasant album to listen to.

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye
Mar 21 2025

Another user wrote "this album oozes soul". I totally agree, but it also oozes sex.

Mar 24 2025

Well produced and good overall sound, but it lacks that final oomph to make it stand out.

Mar 27 2025

Based on the artist and album name I did not expect a soul funk jazz album. It surprised me a lot, and I will definitely come back to this album later. I feel like this album is the essence of an album you must hear before you die.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel
Mar 28 2025

Great voice with a fitting background sound. I think the first part of the album was the strongest, which is why I can only give et 4 stars.

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
Mar 31 2025

I don't enjoy shouting rap to heavy beats, and this was repeated throughout the album.

Apr 01 2025

I am a Muse fan, but after a thorough listen, I must admit this album has not aged as well as I remembered. I give it 4 stars because there are some really great songs in between.

Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel
Apr 10 2025

No doubt that this a great album with solid songs, but once I finished listening, I kinda missed something that stood out.

The Stooges by The Stooges
Apr 11 2025

Some parts of the album were really interesting, but there is no doubt that this is an old record and this was too jarring for me.

Brothers by The Black Keys
Apr 15 2025

Great album and great sound. Though it's too long for how little variation there is between the songs

Apr 16 2025

Experimental album with some very catchy instrumentation. Sadly the lead singer's voice was really jarring to me, which ruined everything for me.

Quiet Life by Japan
Apr 18 2025

Crazy to think that this is from the 70s when it sounds like the 80s. A fun album, but it is tad too long.

Led Zeppelin II by Led Zeppelin
Apr 21 2025

An album of some the best songs out there and then some mediocre ones. Thanks for the rollercoaster ride, it was fun!

Tigermilk by Belle & Sebastian
May 20 2025

A sweet album, with a crazy song in "Electronic Renaissance" - I would love if the whole album sounded like that song instead.

Toys In The Attic by Aerosmith
May 21 2025

Only "Walk This Way" and "Sweet Emotion" are good. Rest of the album was forgettable.

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
May 22 2025

This is just an okay album, neither special nor bad.

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
May 23 2025

Really cool blues album!

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
May 26 2025

On a first listen it takes time to get used to the sound of Talking Heads, but as the album went on I enjoyed it more and more.

Is This It by The Strokes
Feb 06 2026

This album is really interesting and hard to listen to at the same time. Fun experience but not likely I'm coming back

Arrival by ABBA
Feb 09 2026

It's hard to pinpoint why, but this album just instantly makes me happy when I hear it.

Fragile by Yes
Feb 10 2026

Roundabout is incredible, great lyrics, interesting instrumentation, long play time with development over the song. Rest of the songs are more a mixed bag. I would have rated this album higher if 3-4 of the duds were left out of the album and it was just a tad more cohesive between songs.

Iron Maiden by Iron Maiden
Feb 11 2026

Iron Maiden has done a lot of cool shit. While this album is also cool it could be ever so slightly more cool.

Kilimanjaro by The Teardrop Explodes
Feb 13 2026

Some of it was okay.

Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys
Feb 16 2026

This album slaps. Will come back again that's for sure.

21 by Adele
Feb 17 2026

Apart from the lyrics (which I rarely pay attention to), this album is carried by Adele's amazing voice. Will definitely listen again.

The Undertones by The Undertones
Feb 18 2026

Fast and fun album, "blink" and you will miss half the songs. I would listen to it again.

Ctrl by SZA
Feb 19 2026

Somewhat interesting, but still forgettable. Not usually my type of music

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Feb 20 2026

I keep trying to like the beatles but whenever listening to their albums my mind just drift to other things. To be clear, their sound is enjoyable, it is just not something extraordinary to me.

Be by Common
Mar 18 2026

Damn, I would likely never have heard this album if not for this list. It feels like the samples were specifically for this album.

Suzanne Vega by Suzanne Vega
Mar 19 2026

This album was boring and I lost focus many times. I guess it would be good for that at least.

Melody A.M. by Röyksopp
Mar 20 2026

I love Röyksopp and this album is the core of what they can do. Even though some songs on the album has dated a bit nostalgia made me give the final start. Will come back to listen to this album again.

Hot Buttered Soul by Isaac Hayes
Mar 23 2026

The singing part of the album was good but not something i will came back for

Brilliant Corners by Thelonious Monk
Mar 24 2026

Not the biggest fan of jazz. I liked the style though.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Mar 25 2026

This album was lovely from start to finish. A tad long but will come back to listen again

Real Life by Magazine
Mar 27 2026

I did not enjoy the vocals

Palo Congo by Sabu
Apr 01 2026

The drumming is certainly skilled but it is not a good listening experience. This is an album that should be experienced live or not at all
