Popular Reviews

Treasure by Cocteau Twins

album makes me feel like I'm a victorian girl locked in a dungeon about to die of the plague but it's cool cause I'm chillin though

Logical Progression by LTJ Bukem

FYI: There is a very similar album on streaming also by LTJ with the same name. Doesn't help that this site uses the wrong cover art. The original compilation is much much better in my opinion. With that out of the way, this is definitely one of my favorite dnb releases of all time. Its atmospheric, groovy, and danceable all in one. If you like the peshay studio set you'll like this and vice versa.

Music Has The Right To Children by Boards of Canada

this makes me so nostalgic. reminds me of the time my father used to beat me to death with a hammer while sesame street played.

Grace by Jeff Buckley

Jesus man this album is so hauntingly beautiful. every song is just so perfect in its own way. everyone should listen to this.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Sep 22 2022

Awesome guitar!! Janis is a good vocalist. Insane for 68. Blackface :(

Murmur by R.E.M.
Sep 23 2022

Pretty groovy. I don't listen to a lot if 80s alt rock so cool.

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Sep 24 2022

You good man?

Miriam Makeba by Miriam Makeba
Sep 24 2022

Why is this on the list. It's not bad though.

Moving Pictures by Rush
Sep 26 2022

Cheesy but who cares. Vocalist is eh. Awesome synths. I think this remaster is pretty bad. YYZ is great.

Bryter Layter by Nick Drake
Sep 27 2022

Really cool. Love the chamber influences. Folk with a flute is just cheating. Should probably listen to discography.

Hot Buttered Soul by Isaac Hayes
Sep 28 2022

Walk on by is just beautiful. I really like the monologue on phoenix but it's too long. Overall just smooth as hell.

Dig Me Out by Sleater-Kinney
Sep 29 2022

I'm not an indie rock person unfortunately. Cool songs just not my thing really. Bonus points for lesbiabs :)

Ritual De Lo Habitual by Jane's Addiction
Sep 30 2022

Cover sucks complete ass. Music is pretty good, reminds me of primus. Doesn't have a lot of personality though? I like the guitar tone and overall vibe though.

Low-Life by New Order
Oct 01 2022

New order definitely make music but they are also completely uninteresting.

Tommy by The Who
Oct 02 2022

I'm nostalgic for this album bc my dad used to always play it and the who were his favorite. The good parts are really really good but there doesn't need to be so many instrumental sections. Also the ending is weird.

Oct 03 2022

First two tracks go insane. I like this a lot more than dubno. Less focus on the vocals make this great.

Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen
Oct 05 2022

I liked this way more than I thought I would. Overall I wish it was less poppy, because the harder moments are really good. Adam raised a Cain is pretty crazy.

Something/Anything? by Todd Rundgren
Oct 10 2022

Super awesome. I wish it was a single album so bad. There's so many good songs though.

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Oct 12 2022

Its alright. Lots of noodling. Not sure why it's on the list.

Songs The Lord Taught Us by The Cramps
Oct 13 2022

I'm really picky with punk and this doesn't really do it for me. There's some cool songs though.

Elephant by The White Stripes
Oct 14 2022

It's cool

Olympia 64 by Jacques Brel
Oct 16 2022

Amsterdam is pretty great but I don't speak French so uhhhhhhhh

Blackstar by David Bowie
Oct 17 2022

David bowie is good???? Literally amazing album

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Oct 18 2022

Really solid for the time. Buddy holly is a really great vocalist. Get a little samey but it's the 50s so whatever.

Odessa by Bee Gees
Oct 20 2022

I want to like this more but it's boring :(

Tragic Songs of Life by The Louvin Brothers
Oct 21 2022

It's pretty cool for the time but a bit long, which is weird for a 35 minute album. If it was like 10 min shorter I would like it better tbh. Maybe keep it off the list.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Oct 24 2022

This website keeps giving me folk and I'm completely fine with that

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Oct 25 2022

Man. Just like. Its so good. Curtis's voice just scratches the right parts of my brian while the smoothest instrumentals play with him. Amazing.

Songs Of Love And Hate by Leonard Cohen
Oct 26 2022

It's leonard cohen. I wish I could pay attention to the lyrics more.

Dookie by Green Day
Oct 29 2022

It's a fun pop punk album. The only real masterpiece i think is basket case, but this is really good as far as pop punk goes.

White Light / White Heat by The Velvet Underground
Nov 02 2022

Wacky album. I like it more than the debut. Sister Ray is a monster as is known.

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Nov 10 2022

Not really for me. Unfinished sympathy is a highlight.

The Bends by Radiohead
Nov 11 2022

Third time listening to radiohead. Turns out they're way better when they're not doing pretentious psuedo-experimental stuff.

Nov 22 2022

great mix of psychedelic synths and indie sleaze. kids will live in my head rent free.

The Yes Album by Yes
Nov 23 2022

Really nice. Starship trooper is a banger.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Nov 30 2022

Cute little album. Such a vibe. Sad they never rlly made anything else this good.

Germfree Adolescents by X-Ray Spex
Dec 09 2022

silly punk album. surprised it isn't all that talked about with other first wave punk. better than early ramones or sex pistols. and funny saxophone.

Since I Left You by The Avalanches
Dec 10 2022

This album is so amazing. I could probably listen to it forever.

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Dec 11 2022

A variety pack of awesome late 70s music. Great all around, makes me want to check out more costello even if he's grossly over represented on this list

Group Sex by Circle Jerks
Dec 12 2022

Silly little hxc album. Really good.

Metallica by Metallica
Dec 16 2022

Not as good as their classic albums, but still really solid.

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Dec 19 2022

I mean. Yeah. It's good. It's miles davis.

Aja by Steely Dan
Dec 21 2022

Perfect for when you are insanely tired after a big day and just want to listen to music brain off

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Dec 27 2022

Honestly I'm not the hugest fan of post-smile beach boys. There's a lot of great songs here and the cover art is gorgeous but it just feels off. Surfs up and disney girls are two of the bands best.

Killing Joke by Killing Joke
Dec 28 2022

I'm picky with post punk but this falls on the side of not boring so awesome yay. Wasn't expecting the synths but they are very welcome.

Underwater Moonlight by The Soft Boys
Dec 30 2022

Some rad post punk with 60s influence. Nice 👍

Bongo Rock by Incredible Bongo Band
Jan 05 2023

Why is this as good as it is.

Jan 11 2023

One of the best prog albums of all time. Never fails to impress me.

Suicide by Suicide
Jan 12 2023

An interesting listen. It gets a little over the top at moments but there's a lot of really cool sounds here.

In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Jan 19 2023

This is really a one of a kind album that there really isn't anything else like. It's quite beautiful.

Tapestry by Carole King
Jan 25 2023

Super cute album. 70s pop rock is always my vibe.

Nevermind by Nirvana
Jan 27 2023

just great. There's a lot of great songs other than the popular ones.

Fishscale by Ghostface Killah
Feb 06 2023

the last truly great wu tang album along with cuban linx 2. Basically every song here is a banger, and with some great features too. the champ might be one of the greatest rap songs ever.

Phaedra by Tangerine Dream
Feb 08 2023

eh. there's both better berlin school/prog electronic and straight up better tangerine dream albums.

OK Computer by Radiohead
Feb 10 2023

its okay. I like creep

Let It Be by The Replacements
Feb 11 2023

Great. Jumps around a lot but I always love the sound of early alt rock

Fragile by Yes
Feb 13 2023

yeah sure it might be flaunty and over technical and wayyy too artsy at times but it has roundabout.

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Feb 17 2023

this album and the story behind it are absolutely insane. Keith how

Rhythm Nation 1814 by Janet Jackson
Feb 20 2023

New jack swing and post industrial is not a combination I thought was even possible but man. Janet is awesome

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Feb 25 2023

Not just an amazing album but a very culturally significant one. Fela kuti was an insane person. music to get thrown out of a window to.

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Feb 27 2023

It's thriller. like come on. how can someone not like it. just like. thriller. if you don't like it how. like it's thriller how do you not like thriller. everyone likes thriller. I like thriller. good album.

Sister by Sonic Youth
Mar 10 2023

rock music!!!! idk why sonic youth doesn't really click with me but still good.

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Mar 15 2023

This album is awesome but its too wacky for me to like it as much as other davis releases. I still respect it though

...And Justice For All by Metallica
Mar 20 2023

DARKNESS. IMPRISONING ME. ALL THAT I SEE. ABSOLUTE HORROR. Other than One this didn't hold up as well as i remembered. I really like Metallica's proggier side but idk about this one. Jason isn't as good as Cliff (RIP) and Lars's lackluster drums stick out like a sore thumb. It's still solid though, just didn't amaze me now as much as it did in freshman year of high school.

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye
Mar 25 2023

marvin gaye is responsible for millions of people

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Mar 31 2023

favorite cure album so far. the drums are so crispy. and the bass omg. a forest is top.

Entertainment by Gang Of Four
Apr 01 2023

now this is the kind of post punk I like. pretty amazing album overall, though I think it barelyyyy misses the 5 star mark from me this time.

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Apr 03 2023

aaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA a Doesn't hold up as well as I remember. Zep definitely fixed their folkier sound with the next album. Also is it just me or is immigrant song like so much lamer than if should be.

The Stone Roses by The Stone Roses
Apr 04 2023

Lot of good classic songs here. one of those albums where you can clearly hear the influence it had with basically every 90s alt rock album.

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder
Apr 08 2023

I didn't have high expectations, I'm usually not a fan of "white albums" a la the beatles but woah, this is something else. All killer no filer for 2 hours straight how did the man do it.

The White Album by Beatles
Apr 10 2023

i had some hateful review with no rating when i hadnt even heard the album. weird. anyway, ive never been much for this style of album, i usually prefer something tight and clean. theres some great tunes (sexy sadie, helter skelter, while my guitar gently weeps) but im just gonna go back to those rather than this whole bloated mess.

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Apr 11 2023

HELL YEAHHHHHHH!!!!!! THIS IS REAL METALL NONE OF THAT BABY STUFF Solid album it's really good.

Homework by Daft Punk
Apr 14 2023

I love daft punk. but I'm guessing many people are gonna hate this album on the first listen. It's very repetitive and gritty, and sounds nothing like the poppy Discovery. I honestly don't know how this became mainstream. I only got into this after getting into more chicago house and techno music. Definitely a grower.

Daydream Nation by Sonic Youth
Apr 20 2023

Teen age riot is the highlight of this album and just a great song. the rest is pretty rad too.

Ocean Rain by Echo And The Bunnymen
Apr 22 2023

I wasn't a huge fan of their earlier album crocodiles which I got generated previously, but after listening to the killing moon like 20 times I figured I should give this one a go. glad I did. didnt know orchestral goth could be a thing.

Illmatic by Nas
Apr 29 2023

I'm gonna be real I have no idea what he's saying but solid rap record 👍

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
May 06 2023

Just a pretty sweet alt rock album. Reminds me a lot of the other stuff on creation at the time, just poppier.

Heaven Or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins
May 13 2023

Pure bliss. Perfects the genre of dream pop in every way.

May 17 2023

essential hardcore punk that's as silly as possible. Took a while to grow on me but probably one of my favorite punk records nowadays.

Disintegration by The Cure
May 23 2023

A great mix of energetic post punk and slower 80s dream pop. The only drawback is I feel the 80s digital reverb kinda drags it down at points but at the same time I couldn't imagine the album without it.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Jun 02 2023

just some classic cool jazz. props to Dave for using weird time signatures. you already know the highlight.

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane
Jun 04 2023

everyone knows the singles but the rest of the album is surprisingly different. still really solid.

Step In The Arena by Gang Starr
Jun 05 2023

its a tad long but both guru and premier are going all out and you can tell

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Jun 13 2023

i love the title track, jet, and 1985, but the rest is sooooooooo boring. paul youre better than this.

Ramones by Ramones
Jun 18 2023

The original punk. It still holds up really well. how did they write something as good as blitzkrieg bop as their first song.

Liquid Swords by GZA
Jun 28 2023

classic hip hop. you just can't really go wrong with this album. shadowboxin is insane. ghostfaces verse on 4th chamber is amazing

Jul 12 2023

Solid eno album. Most of this is just great eno magic, but man by this river is one of his best songs, possibly even one of the best pop songs of all time. Side note, insane collaborations on this thing, check them out.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Jul 13 2023

A bit more of a classic funk take from Sly and the family before their experimental magnum opus "there's a riot goin on". This one's extremely consistent and just really good. Funky.

Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys
Jul 15 2023

good raps, really good production, all with an insane amount of sampling. nice

Wonderful Rainbow by Lightning Bolt
Jul 17 2023

you know when the rating is low you have a great album on your hands. pretty fun noise rock album, albeit gets a little boring somehow. still a fun listen.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Jul 18 2023

michael jackson and classic disco. amazing combination.

The Cars by The Cars
Jul 22 2023

some classic new wave. Just what I needed is one of my favorite songs, but the rest falls a little flat. still solid

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Jul 23 2023

it's radiohead

Goo by Sonic Youth
Jul 26 2023

favorite sonic youth album I've heard so far. I think I prefer their alt rockier side to their weird experimental stuff.

The United States Of America by The United States Of America
Aug 03 2023

wow, this one really impressed me. I don't really get the people saying it's weird. it's a bit experimental but the sounds are still poppy, it sounds a lot like Jefferson airplane. the singer is really good.

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Aug 08 2023

never thought i would be a "i like the beatles but only in mono" kind of guy but here i am. doesnt hit the same in stereo.

1989 by Taylor Swift
Aug 10 2023

Highlights are good but the rest blends a bit together. still pretty great, Taylor's voice is amazing and the production is amazingly clean. strange I got this the same day 1989tv got announced.

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Aug 15 2023

wow, this is one of those albums where every track just floors me. can't listen to it all the time, it's one of those ones where you gotta be in the right mood to properly experience it. but when it hits, man there's nothing better.

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Aug 16 2023

I had listened to this album a few times before and didnt really get the hype, but this inspired me to listen again. And it clicked pretty hard. Great album, tunnels will be stuck in my head for a while

Nowhere by Ride
Aug 17 2023

Probably the most underrated of the "holy trinity" of shoegaze albums. I'm surprised it doesn't get as much love as loveless or souvlaki, as i think it holds up to those two albums. seagull is a noise pop masterpiece, and vapor trail is a borderline perfect pop song. good ass album

Melody A.M. by Röyksopp
Aug 20 2023

just some really solid downtempo. a lot of downtempo doesn't properly nail the vibe(tm), but this one does. props.

Who's Next by The Who
Aug 23 2023

the ones you know are the stand outs here, but the rest is pretty good too!

Tarkus by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Aug 28 2023

The title track is a zany Prog masterpiece which is expected from elp. the b side is a bit weirder with a few rock and roll tracks thrown in. still an underrated Prog record in my eyes.

Aug 30 2023

just a really fun album. Stephen malkmus with his almost lazy vocals (in a good way) over poppy but still distorted guitars. love it.

Endtroducing..... by DJ Shadow
Sep 02 2023

I originally listened to this album for a school project. I had looked at a list of electronic music artists and picked dj shadow because the name sounded funny. After writing about the track "changeling", I decided to listen to the rest of the album and fell in love with it. mastapiece.

Marquee Moon by Television
Sep 09 2023

I was gonna write about how I thought this album was cool but I didn't really care about it, but upon relistening it totally clicked. May move up to a 5 but 4 for now. man that title track hits every time.

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Sep 13 2023

Just great punky new wave. I mainly like it for the singles, but the rest is good too.

Third by Portishead
Sep 15 2023

Third is a weird album. I don't think there's much debating that. but especially coming from the previous catalogue of portishead. This really seems like am album I'd be all over but I only have fallen in love with the rip and machine gun. maybe in time I'll appreciate this album more but for now I'll just keep forgetting about it

Sep 23 2023

Probably like the best jazz album of all time. this is a national accomplishment. the way it all flawlessly seems together is amazing. listen to this

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Sep 26 2023

title track is classic but for the rest I think they've done better

Lust For Life by Iggy Pop
Sep 28 2023

Personally I prefer the idiot but man this is such an insane classic. how often does an older artist come back and male two back to back bangers.

Bug by Dinosaur Jr.
Oct 04 2023

great followup to you're living all over me which is one of my favorite albums of all time. freak scene is an indie classic. just can't go wrong with it.

Psychocandy by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Oct 05 2023

Maybe need to relisten to this one but it was solid but not really that great outside of just like honey, which I think is still a tad overrated. I still heavily respect what it is especially for the time period.

Oct 10 2023

I first listened to this album early in highschool when I had a big progressive rock phase. I had liked a lot of the more technical Prog like yes and king crimson so I decided to give this one a go. found it boring. I spontaneously decided to relisten to it again last year. and then I listened again. and again. and then listened to most of pink floyds discography. it feels kind of basic but this album is just so good.

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Oct 11 2023

For a while I really thought this album was carried by disorder (which it still kind of is), but actually the rest of the album is really cool. still kind of mad at it for making me think all post punk was sad goth stuff

The Modern Dance by Pere Ubu
Oct 15 2023

I LOVE POST PUNK!!!@ this is a good album, a bit too weird for me but I like the title track and a few others. very niceee

Oct 16 2023

There's some cool songs (yes I like a day in the life) but the whole in between of the album is pure nothing. could be like 4 or 5 songs tbh.

Third by Soft Machine
Oct 19 2023

Maybe im a bit biased from other prog rock but i wish this was a bit more technical. The first track threw me off originally but as another reviewer recommended on second listening i put it off until last and i enjoyed this a bit better. Still pretty nice though.

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
Oct 21 2023

jazz funk is weird. when i want to listen to jazz it gets excluded. when I want to listen to funk it also gets excluded. but this album I feel actually sits comfortably in both. it's funky. it's jazzy. its wacky and zany. epic

Moon Safari by Air
Oct 24 2023

man i put this one off for too long. beautiful mix of downtempo, stereolabby indietronica, and old space age pop and easy listening. good stuff.

The Stooges by The Stooges
Oct 26 2023

first two songs are great, rest is whatever

m b v by My Bloody Valentine
Nov 08 2023
Tago Mago by Can
Nov 12 2023

An absolutely psychedelic experience. its really hard to explain how this album makes me feel. it makes me feel warm and gooey and sticky while also managing to be a bit silly at times. insane vibes. maybe skip the second half "bonus tracks" on the first listen. the musical equivalent of cottonmouth

London Calling by The Clash
Nov 13 2023

A bit of a mess of an album, like a lot of class albums it could be cut down a lot. first two sides and train in vain is enough honestly. that being said still pretty solid all around. I need more dark reggae post punk like the title track and guns of brixton

Bad by Michael Jackson
Nov 14 2023

Bad is weird. while it's not bad (even though it is), it really doesn't feel all that good either. it really doesn't shine very well in comparison to thriller, or even off the wall. smooth criminal is obviously the highlight and only song I'd call thriller-tier. Bad (song) actually isn't that bad (even though it also is). The rest is memorable (dirty diana, speed demon, man in the mirror) but it's just like. sure. this exists. I'd rather just listen to thriller. still not bad (even though it is?) I'd see why someone would call this bad. though I do also not see how you wouldn't call it bad. where am i

Machine Gun Etiquette by The Damned
Nov 17 2023

Wow, nice one. great mix of post punk and classic punk rock, I love albums that cross the bridge between the two like this one does.

You're Living All Over Me by Dinosaur Jr.
Nov 24 2023

Wow, just immediately floors me every time. everything on this record is insane from minute one, going from gorgeous proto-shoegaze to hardcore punk (that drumming!). only down spot is poledo, but ive come to like it over time. love this album.

C'est Chic by CHIC
Nov 25 2023

Just a good old funky time. If someone were to ask me specifically for a disco album I'd send this one and the next one, though I think good times is a little better. still can't go wrong with nile rodgers on guitar.

Nov 26 2023

Devo is probably the best band name of all time. this album is really cool, I don't get some of the tracks like jocko homo yet, but there's also great post punk/nee wave classics like uncontrollable urge and gut feeling.

Nov 29 2023

as of current this album hasn't fully clicked but i still highly highly respect it. it's a little long for my taste, but it's clear a huge amount of effort went into this thing. both the first and last tracks are completely flooring. looking forward to coming back to this when I'm in the mood for it

Countdown To Ecstasy by Steely Dan
Dec 14 2023

Solid Dan as always. not one of my favorites as I'm usually more a fan of the albums that have memorable songs on them but still a classic. how they got away with that f word though will still puzzle me forever

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Dec 25 2023

This one was a grower for sure. not the immediate funk of remain in light, but has become my second favorite from them. I zimbra, life during wartime, and cities are just amazing avant garde dance tunes. I've head them referred to as mutant disco and I couldn't agree more.

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
Jan 07 2024

it's some pretty fine grungegaze. nothing crazy but I like a few tracks.

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
Jan 10 2024

the jazz album to kill all jazz albums. Obviously not the craziest jazz album for the time, but definitely the best bridge of earlier hard bop/post bop and later avant garde jazz. an album for both casual listeners and nerds. not to mention its also just really good. amazing reoccurring theme. probably my favorite jazz album of all time.

Logical Progression by LTJ Bukem
Jan 16 2024

FYI: There is a very similar album on streaming also by LTJ with the same name. Doesn't help that this site uses the wrong cover art. The original compilation is much much better in my opinion. With that out of the way, this is definitely one of my favorite dnb releases of all time. Its atmospheric, groovy, and danceable all in one. If you like the peshay studio set you'll like this and vice versa.

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Jan 17 2024

a hip hop album hasn't floored me this much in so long. its 5 just for gimme the loot

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Jan 23 2024

basically the sound of the 70s. tons of hits on this. not my favorite, but I can't deny it's power.

The Beach Boys Today! by The Beach Boys
Jan 30 2024

pretty solid beach boys album, the reviews are right that this one feels whiter though lol. not sure why it's loved over all summer long or summer days, but it's still brian wilson. help me Ronda outro is funny

NEU! 75 by Neu!
Feb 01 2024

After a rough mishap with the recording of neu 2's b side, neu finally apply everything I feel like they worked out on the two records. Psychedelia, proto punk, and even ambient are wonderfully tied together by Dinger's signature drumming. It's pretty amazing how good this turned out.

Led Zeppelin IV by Led Zeppelin
Feb 02 2024

As much as the zoomed in me wants to make fun of this, it's just too much of a classic. Yeah it's quintessential dad rock, but it goes crazy.

Treasure by Cocteau Twins
Feb 04 2024

album makes me feel like I'm a victorian girl locked in a dungeon about to die of the plague but it's cool cause I'm chillin though

Parachutes by Coldplay
Feb 11 2024

falls off after a while but really solid, the singles are pretty great

Damaged by Black Flag
Feb 12 2024

just a hardcore classic. I think this band would go on to do better things (though admittedly also much much worse things) you just can't go wrong with this one. tons of fun.

In Utero by Nirvana
Feb 24 2024

This album hasn't totally clicked for me yet unlike the prior one, but I still respect it and it's definitely really really good.

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre
Mar 05 2024

Just a blissful groovy moogy early electronic album, and that's my favorite. Such a jam.

Tical by Method Man
Mar 06 2024

Solid first solo outing from wu tang. Bring the pain is an alltimer. tbh I like the mixing.

Dummy by Portishead
Mar 08 2024

Beth gibbons' voice gives me gender envy.

GI by Germs
Mar 09 2024

Great early hardcore. highly recommend.

A Hard Day's Night by Beatles
Mar 10 2024

was gonna rate it lower but honestly its just so consistant and fun, love this shit

Mar 14 2024

Call me insane but I didn't get this one... love most of wu tangs golden era stuff but this one didn't click. update: I love it

Doolittle by Pixies
Mar 17 2024

Classic alt/indie. all the songs are super catchy, even pretty noisy. just classic

The Sun Rises In The East by Jeru The Damaja
Mar 18 2024

its fine. good beats from preemo but jeru is just a whatever mc tbh

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Mar 25 2024

cool and funky. sultans of swing is always amazing but there's a few others that stuck with me.

Superfuzz Bigmuff by Mudhoney
Mar 26 2024

really good grunge before it became a huge thing.

The Nightfly by Donald Fagen
Mar 30 2024

both some of the best and worst steely dan songs?

Slipknot by Slipknot
Apr 01 2024

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Apr 03 2024

it's beautiful, it's catchy, it's depressing, it's endlessly replayable. Should be higher regarded as one of the best albums of all time.

The Who Sell Out by The Who
Apr 04 2024

not a whole lot of major standouts per se besides i can see for miles but i really like the concept its so silly i love stuff like this

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails
Apr 13 2024

I've listened to a lot of metal and punk but this is still thr heaviest album I've ever heard

Fun House by The Stooges
Apr 15 2024

thought this would be awesome its kinda boring dad rock. whatever.

Forever Changes by Love
Apr 22 2024

I really like the first track but the rest is a little boring

Is This It by The Strokes
Apr 23 2024

Just bangers on end

Superunknown by Soundgarden
May 03 2024

Just some pretty classic grunge. I think a bit too long but lots of classics.

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
May 05 2024

Honestly just the singles are the highlights but they're some pretty amazing highlights

Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz
May 19 2024

never really thought of bossa Nova + cool jazz. girl from ipanema is essential.

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Jun 02 2024

kinda fell off since I stopped being in 9th grade. I'll defend metallica their get made fun of a little much. not the members themselves though keep making fun of them.

New Forms by Roni Size
Jun 03 2024

it's a pretty nice little package. brown paper bag is top tier dnb, and watching these songs played live is pretty great. drags on a bit cause it's a 90s edm album.

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Jun 14 2024

I'm gonna be a little picky and say that the tracklisting for the A side feels weird to me. but otherwise yeah peak.

The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground
Jul 05 2024

as much as I like this album it's incredibly overrated. the poppy bits are pretty great but I don't care for most of the garagey rock (besides heroin and venus in furs). still pretty great, but I'd recommend the self titled album over this any day

Jul 15 2024

little disappointed? I love some of the tracks (the title track especially) but a lot of this is boring and annoying.

Revolver by Beatles
Jul 19 2024

for the love of god please listen in mono

Yeezus by Kanye West
Jul 26 2024
The Idiot by Iggy Pop
Aug 07 2024

tis a banger

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Aug 20 2024

have i been sleeping on atcq? yes yes i have.

Scott 4 by Scott Walker
Aug 23 2024
Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan
Aug 28 2024

I feel like bob hasn't made the most consistent albums, but this one is tight. Just banger after banger of some of the most depressing and lonely folk ever. huge album.

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Aug 30 2024

Just some great fuzz and solos. i wish the version differences were more clear. make sure to at least listen to a version including the singles.

The White Room by The KLF
Sep 02 2024

I love the klf but this is not the album tk listen to. listen to chill out or solid state logik 1 and 2

Meat Puppets II by Meat Puppets
Sep 12 2024

it's a solid little psych-alt-cowboy fusion

The Score by Fugees
Sep 27 2024

kinda lost me outside of the singles but i like how accessable it is

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Sep 28 2024

boomer rock. some high highs and low lows. cant hate on it too much i was bumping this like crazy in high school

Darklands by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Oct 07 2024
Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
Oct 08 2024
The Colour Of Spring by Talk Talk
Dec 05 2024

just a smooth as hell pop album. I love you talk talk

All Things Must Pass by George Harrison
Dec 06 2024

Just a really great collection of songs. beatles were actually throwing by not letting george put more songs on their albums. wah wah is my favorite song ever.

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Aug 16 2025

Holy shit man this album really made me understand floyd. This thing is just pure bliss front to back. One of those few albums that just radiates *goodness*. Beautiful.

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Aug 18 2025

Really slick g funk album. what happened to him after this man.

Aug 24 2025

honestly felt a bit overhyped? I liked the middle-end part more than the fan favorites at the beginning also. I think the message is really good, I just find it a little boring.

Boston by Boston
Aug 29 2025

goes hard

Hail To the Thief by Radiohead
Aug 30 2025

Surprised this one is considered one of their less great albums, I do this it's a little bloated but honestly I enjoyed it all the same. I love when radiohead are at their most indie.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Aug 31 2025

honestly the only beatles album I really get the hype for. this one is pretty masterfully done, if only they did more like this.

Maggot Brain by Funkadelic
Sep 11 2025

what a crazy album. I'm a little contrarian on this one as a pfunk fan though, I think the live version of the title track from one nation clears this version. not that this version is bad, it's still amazing, along with the classic can you get to that. good pick.

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder
Sep 12 2025

honestly I think I spoiled myself by hearing songs in the key of life first, that album is so amazing its hard to listen to stevies other music. this is for sure very good though.

Sep 13 2025

I mean... what? this album has two insanely good songs, two pretty good songs and a lot of mid to excruciatingly painful songs. I have no idea how this happened with such a talented lineup. You're best off just listening to the singles and ignoring the rest of the album. Try to listen to 8 ball remix without crying or laughing.

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Sep 17 2025

he went jazz mode

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
Sep 18 2025

throb dylan gives us a mix of some great tunes. I think there's a few misses, but the hits hit. the inventor of diss tracks.

16 Lovers Lane by The Go-Betweens
Sep 20 2025

one of the cutest albums of all time

Pornography by The Cure
Sep 22 2025

honestly I think it might be one of the more overrated cure records but there's nothing else that sounds as pained as this album. this album sounds like they had robert smith doing the vocals while in one of those medieval torture devices that stretches you out while a really short guy gets commanded to turn the crank.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Sep 28 2025

Jesus man this album is so hauntingly beautiful. every song is just so perfect in its own way. everyone should listen to this.

Closer by Joy Division
Oct 01 2025

Definitely a grower, the b side is so amazing. it's weird as hell but there's so much pain coming from this album. hurts to listen to in a good way. rip.

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Oct 02 2025

Such a beautiful album. Thank you Lou Reed for writing Candy Says. 🏳️‍⚧️

Heroes by David Bowie
Oct 07 2025

Still a good bowie album, but it's a mix of "heroes and some other songs" and "low but again". heroes is pretty insane though.

Court And Spark by Joni Mitchell
Oct 09 2025

Double joni! this one's good just it's not what I expect from joni? I prefer her more simpler works, but this one's still good.

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Oct 29 2025

just in time for Halloween. just a really sick album, siouxsie has an amazing voice and she really showcases it here. just mind the casual racism

Kid A by Radiohead
Oct 30 2025

Certainly overrated but I get why people like it so much. It really doesn't have as much depth as other radiohead albums, all of the songs are very one sided. still good, just I will always make fun of it whenever I can. poser electronic music they wanna be aphex twin sooooo bad.

Real Life by Magazine
Nov 11 2025

SHOT BY BOTH SIIIIIIIIIDES

McCartney by Paul McCartney
Nov 14 2025

listen to ram. this album isnt bad really, its just kinda whatever besides the fantastic song junk. everything he tries here he does way better on ram. just listen to ram.

Out of Step by Minor Threat
Nov 17 2025

classic hardcore. I like their earlier stuff better though

90 by 808 State
Nov 27 2025

solid house album. pacific state is pretty amazing.

Leftism by Leftfield
Nov 28 2025

yet another perfectly solid house album. I like the downtempo and tribal things it throw in but it's still just kind of early uk house.

Isn't Anything by My Bloody Valentine
Dec 21 2025

album titles that are true

Timeless by Goldie
Dec 23 2025

truly the drums and bass of all time

Smile by Brian Wilson
Dec 30 2025

rip brian wilson. thank you for everything you've done for music.

Channel Orange by Frank Ocean
Jan 08 2026

better than blonde low key

Arise by Sepultura
Jan 20 2026

Some solid thrash

Low by David Bowie
Jan 26 2026

overrated. people will give david bowie credit for having brian eno make ambient music for him when Enos solos work clears this out of the water.

Dig Your Own Hole by The Chemical Brothers
Feb 03 2026

Some solid big beat. id honestly put on some prodigy over this but its not bad.

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Feb 11 2026

Its got a lot of classic songs just I dont really feel like it works that well as an album? ill keep listening to the singles on their own probably.

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Feb 22 2026

what happened here man. theres a lot of great motifs and song parts but the whole thing is just kind of a mess. why is roger waters doing an american accent the whole time. why is bring the boys back home even included its so bad. i cant say i didnt like it, but im gonna go back to listening to their previous 4 albums on loop.

Feb 27 2026

made me cry first time i listened to it. wasnt a great idea was already having a mental breakdown but its just that beautiful.

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Mar 10 2026

probably my favorite dylan if i had to choose. The run of songs on the first half is just so damn good.

Cross by Justice
Mar 13 2026

i had dance on a playlist and my mom asked if it was mickey mouse clubhouse

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
Mar 18 2026

Some highlights with the singles but a little too boring

Metal Box by Public Image Ltd.
Apr 06 2026

one of the hardest albums of all time. john lydon reborn. bass player whos never played before. records in a metal box so you fuck them up trying to get them out only to hear the worst cover of swan lake youve ever heard. amazing.

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
Apr 07 2026

uhhhhhh its been a really long time since i last heard this but i think it was pretty good. i like the one where he says please dont kill my wife.

Music Has The Right To Children by Boards of Canada
Apr 09 2026

this makes me so nostalgic. reminds me of the time my father used to beat me to death with a hammer while sesame street played.

Axis: Bold As Love by Jimi Hendrix
Apr 11 2026

I like it but not as much as either of his other albums

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Apr 19 2026

great album, but the singles almost stand out too much? the singles are just really good

Rust In Peace by Megadeth
Apr 23 2026

wow, why cant they be THIS good all the time???? sure its guitar wankery but it might be the guitar wankery of all time.

Apr 30 2026

Honestly i cant say i *get* it in full but i like a lot of whats here

Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
May 08 2026

the album to end the 60s. this thing is immaculately produced with insane orgasmic vocal harmonies and melodies that will make you cry. listen to it!!!

Risque by CHIC
May 15 2026

FUNKY. should be the standard for disco

Atomizer by Big Black
May 29 2026

SET ME ON FIRE (worst painful guitar riff youve ever heard)

evermore by Taylor Swift
Jun 09 2026

god damn god damn god damn god damn

Technique by New Order
Jun 12 2026

maybe my favorite from them??? jangle pop and acid house are not two things that should go together but they do

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
Jun 16 2026

while im not super into the albums politics (I PROMISE IM NOT RIGHT WING I JUST THINK ITS A LITTLE TOO LIBERAL SOMETIMES PLEASE DONT STOP READING) theres no doubt about the damn sound of it all. smooth as hell and revolutionized soul music. marvin gaye you clueless motherfucker

Remain In Light by Talking Heads
Jun 18 2026

maybe the best A side of all time?? Little fall off after once in a lifetime but such a good album

american dream by LCD Soundsystem
Jun 24 2026

underrated tbh but ill take this is happening over it

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Jun 25 2026

Pink Flag by Wire
Jun 26 2026
