Popular Reviews

Wild Gift by X

Punk, but the band has skill.

All Ratings (60)

London Calling by The Clash
Aug 18 2022

Not bad, but not awesome either.

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Aug 19 2022

This album achieves a lot with very little instrumentation. Great album, but a bit soft for my taste.

Like A Prayer by Madonna
Aug 20 2022

Good, but not my cup of tea.

21 by Adele
Aug 23 2022

Pop, but good. Excellent vocals.

Yank Crime by Drive Like Jehu
Aug 24 2022

Sounds a bit like Slynt. Probably better on the third or fifth listen. Still pretty neat.

Now I Got Worry by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
Aug 25 2022

Very nice mix of blues and alternative.

Metallica by Metallica
Aug 27 2022

Not the best Metallica album, but it has some bangers nevertheless.

Low by David Bowie
Aug 28 2022

A bit like early Pink Floyd, but not as weird. Track eight is outstanding.

Felt Mountain by Goldfrapp
Aug 29 2022

First half isn't particular exciting, but the last few tracks are interesting.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Aug 30 2022

Way ahead of its time. Today, there is music I like better, but not much.

The Band by The Band
Aug 31 2022

Hadn't heard of them for some reason; will listen to more of their music. Very coherent album, and a bop.

New York Dolls by New York Dolls
Sep 01 2022

Pretty, good. Will probably listen again.

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Sep 03 2022

Very varied. Has content.

Spiderland by Slint
Sep 04 2022

Really grows on you after a few spins. Kinda wacky, but not random.

1989 by Taylor Swift
Sep 05 2022

Bunch of classics on this one. Very pleasant to listen to, but not really my thing.

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Sep 06 2022

Nice and chill. Very enjoyable. For the most part not too special though.

Screamadelica by Primal Scream
Sep 07 2022

False advertisement. They did not scream. Was all right though, pretty chill.

Drunk by Thundercat
Sep 08 2022

Not what I usually listen to, but I like it.

Wild Gift by X
Sep 09 2022

Punk, but the band has skill.

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Sep 10 2022

Not entirely sure why some regard this as the best album. Still a good listen though.

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Sep 11 2022

Very nice. Chill, but not boring.

The Modern Lovers by The Modern Lovers
Sep 12 2022

Nothing fancy, but nice instrumentals. Not the greatest fan of the vocals.

Daydream Nation by Sonic Youth
Sep 13 2022

Definitely some substance there. To fully appreciate this one, I'll need to hear it more though. Might be a five in the future.

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Sep 14 2022

Son of a Preacher Man slaps. The rest is good, but not really my taste.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Sep 15 2022

Had only heard the Peter Gabriel cover of My Body Is a Cage before, but this is pretty good too.

Peter Gabriel by Peter Gabriel
Sep 16 2022

Gets better towards the end. Overall very enjoyable.

British Steel by Judas Priest
Sep 17 2022

Some nice heavy metal. But I can't help comparing it with Iron Maiden, and I like them better than Judas Priest.

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Sep 18 2022

Pretty nice vocals, the instrumentals felt a bit synthetic sometimes.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Sep 19 2022

Slaps. Has some funky rhythms. Conveys the message and the emotions behind it really well.

Be by Common
Sep 20 2022

Pretty enjoyable, although not what I usually listen to.

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
Sep 22 2022

Sounds a bit like 100 gecs, but it doesn't really convince me. I don't find the synthetic sounds very pleasant to listen to, and the music isn't particularly interesting structurally either.

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Sep 23 2022

A bit too slow and chill for my taste, but otherwise good.

Boy In Da Corner by Dizzee Rascal
Sep 25 2022

I'm usually not much into music like this, but I can vibe with this album very well. Especially the vocals are done skillfully and have me bopping my head a lot.

A Walk Across The Rooftops by The Blue Nile
Sep 26 2022

Very pleasant and relaxing. Not too interesting though, but maybe that's because I didn't pay enough attention.

Being There by Wilco
Sep 27 2022

As usual, I'm not the greatest fan of alternative, but country is nice. Personal opinions aside, the musicians are very skilled and the compositions aren't lacking either.

Vespertine by Björk
Sep 28 2022

Really good. The vocals are great, and it's very pleasant to listen to. But I'm missing a little edge here and there. Maybe I need to listen a few more times to really appreciate this.

Caetano Veloso by Caetano Veloso
Sep 29 2022

Very much unlike what I usually listen to, but very interesting nevertheless. I like the fact that he threw in an Ave Maria as well. Certainly enjoyable to listen to.

Colour By Numbers by Culture Club
Sep 30 2022

Some classic pop, but especially the last track is also a bit more serious. All in all, very nice.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Oct 01 2022

I had some complaints about Frank, but they don't apply to this album at all. Very enjoyable, especially the vocals.

Shaft by Isaac Hayes
Nov 13 2022

Some nice chill music. Reminds me of the Neon Genesis Evangelion OST a lot. Overall not really outstanding though.

Electric Prunes by The Electric Prunes
Nov 14 2022

Generally a bop. I feel like alternative rock takes inspiration from this to this day, so it definitely seems influential. Personally, I'm not too much into alternative, but I certainly don't mind listening to this.

Rum Sodomy & The Lash by The Pogues
Nov 15 2022

A very fun album. It's not particular edgy, but not very uninspired either.

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Nov 16 2022

Some nice rock, definitely easy on the ears. However, I prefer something that goes a little harder.

Pink Flag by Wire
Nov 17 2022

With punk I often feel like the entire album is a lot of the same, but not with this one. Many of the tracks are very short, but it's a very fun album.

Liege And Lief by Fairport Convention
Nov 18 2022

Some very nice compositions and skilled players. But what really sold me on this one is the vocals; they're an excellent fit for folk rock, remind me a bit of Comus.

Nov 19 2022

I didn't understand much of the dialogue, which I imagine is pretty important too. The music itself is great though; pretty diverse with a bunch of rap but also a guitar solo here and there.

Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
Nov 21 2022

Very creative and innovative, especially for their time, so it certainly deserves its spot on the list. But personally, I don't enjoy the music too much. The nonsense tracks aren't particularly fun either.

S&M by Metallica
Nov 22 2022

It's refreshing to hear the classic songs played differently. While it's certainly interesting, I don't think Metallica's music profits too much from an orchestra.

Orbital 2 by Orbital
Nov 23 2022

For Techno, this is really good. But it's still techno, so no vocals and a rather lifeless sound.

White Ladder by David Gray
Dec 11 2022

Very pleasant and good. But on the other hand not particularly unique.

Soul Mining by The The
Dec 14 2022

Chill songs. To me, it's not particularly outstanding after one listen though.

Red Dirt Girl by Emmylou Harris
Dec 15 2022

Really chill and pleasant, but nothing world-changing for me.
