Imagine by John Lennon
Oct 06 2022

Lennon is mid.

Garbage by Garbage
Oct 08 2022

Solid 3.5/5. Fun, upbeat, eccentric. Solid debut by Garbage. I don't think it's anything new or interesting, just a pleasant listen through.

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Oct 10 2022

I can respect it, but I don't think it's anything groundbreaking.

Dec 24 2023

Terry Kath's guitar is awesome. This album is filled with unique arrangements and lots of trumpets and clean vocals. A nice mix of jazz and rock.

Axis: Bold As Love by Jimi Hendrix
Jun 22 2024

Not great, not bad. Kind of forgettable. There are a few notable tracks, but for the most part, compared to Electric Lady Land or Are You Experienced? this isn't Jimi's best work.

Violator by Depeche Mode
Jun 23 2024

Not my style...

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Jun 25 2024

It's pretty good. Some absolute bangers, but not amazing through and through.

Slipknot by Slipknot
Jun 26 2024

My personal favorite of theirs. It's raw and angsty, without being pretentious.

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Jun 28 2024

Fantastic album if you want to kill yourself!

Odelay by Beck
Jun 29 2024

Beck's best album. Slacker rock at its finest.

Manassas by Stephen Stills
Jun 30 2024

It's a solid effort by Stills. The songs ebb and flow well together. There are a few standout tracks, but nothing mind blowing nor at the same level as when he's with Crosby, Nash, and Young.

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley
Jul 01 2024

Contains some of Tim's most accessible songs, but also breaking the barrier into his primal side with songs like Gypsy Woman.

Bummed by Happy Mondays
Jul 03 2024
Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Jul 04 2024

Kinda mid. I like Pink Floyd's early more psychedelic stuff, but not this.

California by American Music Club
Jul 05 2024

Their best work. A sad, but real album, full of melancholic songs, but the occasional upbeat one. The last song is a real tear-jerker.

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Jul 06 2024

Solid album, not nearly as good as Paranoid or Master of Reality. Never realized "Changes" was a Sabbath song.

LP1 by FKA twigs
Jul 07 2024
Djam Leelii by Baaba Maal
Jul 08 2024

Loved this. It was unique (to me), full of heart, passion, and soul.

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
Jul 09 2024

There was a time and place for this music. It really amped you up and feel alive at the time. Unfortunately, I just think it didn't age very well. The times have changed and so has my love for this kind of indie rock. I can see the appeal, but it isn't for me anymore.

Tom Tom Club by Tom Tom Club
Jul 10 2024

I think it's a solid effort. Very artsy, with some nice melodies and funky tunes. Nothing spectacular though.

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
Jul 16 2024

This album is just incredibly boring. Every song sounds the same to me.

The La's by The La's
Jul 17 2024

Pretty mid. One of the best and most iconic songs in \"There She Goes,\" but other than that, there is a bunch of misses.

Made In Japan by Deep Purple
Jul 18 2024

I can respect it, it's just not my cup of tea. Dad rock and it sounds so outdated. They can sure jam though.

Shleep by Robert Wyatt
Jul 19 2024

Probably a solid 3.5. Not my favorite from Robert Wyatt, but a pleasant listen.

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Jul 21 2024

I just don't love the progressive power pop genre. I can see how this could be appealing for others, but it doesn't do it for me.

Something/Anything? by Todd Rundgren
Jul 22 2024

Not every song is incredible and it's a bit too long, but there are some great tracks on here. Solid 7-8/10

Sound of Silver by LCD Soundsystem
Jul 27 2024

My favorite LCD Soundsystem album. It just hits all the right boxes for me. Upbeat, nostalgic, and many more.

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Jul 28 2024

Solid 3. Not groundbreaking by any means. Some highlights, but mostly filler.

Country Life by Roxy Music
Jul 29 2024

Solid album. Good flow. Not nearly as good as their first album though. It's lacking the originality that it had then. 3.5/5

The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy
Jul 30 2024

Some bangers on here for sure. A lot of filler, however. I can see how this would appeal to the large markets. It's a fun listen. Nothing groundbreaking.

I remember thinking I was super edgy listening to this when I was young. The vocals and songs are a bit too angsty for my liking now, but the musicianship wasn't bad. Solid 3.

Make Yourself by Incubus
Aug 02 2024

I love this album but I don't think it's necessarily good. 3/5.

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
Aug 03 2024

The 80s produced some terrible music. This is a part of that. I get that some might find it enjoyable, but it was very much a time and a place kind of music. That time is not now.

2112 by Rush
Aug 04 2024

Not really my cup of tea. This prog/dad rock with the unoriginal and uninspiring vocals. Music was fine, some bright spots but not something I need to listen to before I die. Old heads are going to love this stuff.

Aug 05 2024

I'm not a big fan of country. These are some heartfelt and powerful songs, but I don't think the musicianship is anything to be desired. If you're going through a tough time, this album would help you through it.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Aug 06 2024

Cool jazz at its finest. Easy to listen to but interesting enough to keep me piqued throughout.

Teen Dream by Beach House
Aug 07 2024

An ethereal, calm, easy to listen to album. 3.5/5.

Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Aug 08 2024

A masterpiece. Just such a fun and unique album.

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Aug 09 2024

Solid. Listened to the UK version. Was great.

Aug 13 2024

Not my favorite Dylan album. Some good tracks but lacking the passion and the songwriting isn't as mature.

Murmur by R.E.M.
Aug 16 2024

Just a solid album. Lots of great tracks and nearly 0 misses.

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Aug 27 2024

Not my favorite by them, but still a solid album through and through.
