Popular Reviews

Rings Around The World by Super Furry Animals

Very good! They are wild and contained at the same time. I am glad I discovered this band.

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley

Great album!!

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Not really. Too falsely rebellious

1-Star Albums (36)

All Ratings (213)

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
Oct 21 2022

Electro Style Allemand. Efficace, un peu redondant, mais amusant si dans le mood.

american dream by LCD Soundsystem
Oct 24 2022

Très émotif et posta-apocalyptique comme ressenti. Se prennent un peu trop au sérieux. Mise en scène dramatique. Un fond U2.

Oct 25 2022

Very low and sad mood. I guess she went through something difficult while she wrote these songs. The basic pattern is redundant, but that’s her style. I hope she finds joy and has fun at one point.

Let It Be by The Replacements
Oct 26 2022

Young garage band sound. Rather noisy. I think they have talent, but lack the skills. Music schooling would benefit them, if I may.

Tanto Tempo by Bebel Gilberto
Oct 27 2022

Nice, but a little predictable. Some songs are romantic and smooth, in Portuguese. They are the nice ones on this album.

Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Oct 28 2022

That’s AC/DC! Good loud rock. It’s got a feel good effect! Nice

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Oct 31 2022

Nice, mostly the second half.

Bossanova by Pixies
Nov 01 2022

Basic musically. Lyrics are obscure most of the time. The second part of the album is better to my taste. It feels rebellious and teenagously disorganized. Which is nice if you are in that mood. I liked it overall…

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Nov 03 2022

Did not age well. Flaky and outdated. Kitch in some aspects. It is a no in 2022. I guess it was good then…

Modern Kosmology by Jane Weaver
Nov 04 2022

Very good album!! Electro new age. Very hypnotic and epic. Loved it!

Veckatimest by Grizzly Bear
Nov 08 2022

Nice Indie Rock. Reminds me of the Beatles in some aspects. Nice when having friends visiting

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Nov 09 2022

Interesting album. It does not sound like the Beach Boys as they became later on.

Nevermind by Nirvana
Nov 10 2022

Limited musically and vocally. Immature noisy garage band sound. Is great for hormonally challenged teenagers who need to let steam out in a repetitive monocord rumble on Friday nights. Boring if I may. Their album cover is the punch!

Floodland by Sisters Of Mercy
Nov 11 2022

À little too dramatic to my taste. An apocalyptic ambiance that would make it a great movie music.

Let England Shake by PJ Harvey
Nov 14 2022

Too nationalistic to my taste. England’s past glory is BuSh, like for all imperialistic nations.

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Nov 15 2022

Good memories, but it is times gone by. Did not age that well. Of course a few mythical songs remain pleasant to listen to.

Microshift by Hookworms
Nov 16 2022

Experiential music. Would make good movie music. A little too repetitive and lacking something. Maybe too technical in its approach and maybe self hypnotic in some way.

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
Nov 17 2022

Good rock! You need to be in the mood for this much intensity. Helps let steam out.

Medúlla by Björk
Nov 18 2022

Intense and passionate! A little too obsessive to my taste. Do not listen in the morning. The mood is agressive and self centred. On the other hand, one can enter with her in that state of psychological intensity where she appears to dwell. Not my cup of tea.

Revolver by Beatles
Nov 21 2022

Good album. Of course we heard that a lot.

Pyromania by Def Leppard
Nov 22 2022

No! Boring it is….

Nov 23 2022

Amazing feminist strength for the years she did this. The album is a ton of anger. She was born 30 years too early. She would have been a great « me too » defender.

Moon Safari by Air
Nov 25 2022

Very uneven styles. There electro is good. Some good James Bond type of songs. Will keep a few song in my files.

The Band by The Band
Nov 28 2022

Not my type.

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Nov 30 2022

Nice 60’s American folk style. A little past the due date, but still nice to listen to.

Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel
Dec 01 2022

Good album. Have listen to it too much because of my parents when I was young, a kid. So I am not able to judge it with enough emotional distance. So, I think it is a gentle intimate type of music. Well made but a little too sentimental to my taste

The Gilded Palace Of Sin by The Flying Burrito Brothers
Dec 02 2022

Really country music! Not a very entertaining country music it is. Boring to me.

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Dec 05 2022

Nice but too melancholic to my taste.

Cloud Nine by The Temptations
Dec 07 2022

Too much on the romance side to my taste. Sounds like a bunch of man trying to prove they are so virile. Gets boring the more you listen

Homework by Daft Punk
Dec 08 2022

Very repetitive, but fun in a party context

The Genius Of Ray Charles by Ray Charles
Dec 19 2022

Too sentimental to my taste. Seams like a one track minded recording. Did not age well

Whatever by Aimee Mann
Dec 21 2022

Not my style.

Rid Of Me by PJ Harvey
Dec 22 2022

Too harsh and agressif. A little too psychotic for me.

British Steel by Judas Priest
Dec 23 2022

Did not like it then and still don’t. Lacking intelligence and talent.

The Slider by T. Rex
Dec 27 2022

Fun album. I like it as a back ground when having friends home. It sounds like a loose party.

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder
Dec 28 2022

Not my style. But some song are worth listening.

My Generation by The Who
Jan 03 2023

Just great!! They were so much ahead of their time that they are still on the wave. A classic!

Rings Around The World by Super Furry Animals
Jan 04 2023

Very good! They are wild and contained at the same time. I am glad I discovered this band.

Superfuzz Bigmuff by Mudhoney
Jan 05 2023

Not my cup of tea at this moment. I am not that angry.

Hypnotised by The Undertones
Jan 06 2023

Fun retro rock teenagers’ mood for young guys.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Jan 09 2023

Like it! Nice mood.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Jan 10 2023

Fun but rather young and teenager boys’ sex oriented one track minded lyrics. An anger that appears to be rooted in post-industrial small American town with no souls.

Boston by Boston
Jan 17 2023

Super! It is great Rock indeed!

The Visitors by ABBA
Jan 18 2023

Very good voices and musical arrangements. Broadway feeling or Disney type of music. Not what I look for.

Too Rye Ay by Dexys Midnight Runners
Jan 19 2023

Interesting voice. The style of music is not my match. They should have let go of the violon. Bad adjustments of intensity, too simple and annoying violon. To me the best song is Reminisce at they end of the album.

Your Arsenal by Morrissey
Jan 20 2023

Noisy, Boring, Narcissistic. Pass

Licensed To Ill by Beastie Boys
Jan 25 2023

Efficient and annoying as it wants to be!!

System Of A Down by System Of A Down
Jan 26 2023

Heavy indeed. Effective if you feel frustrated and in need of help for steam exhaust. Otherwise annoying

Gris Gris by Dr. John
Jan 27 2023

Really experimental. Interesting but one needs to be in the mood.

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Jan 30 2023

Shallow by the lack of sincerity of the signer. We don’t believe her. Bad interpretation. Music is very boring.

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Jan 31 2023

Wow! Great album! Loved it, although some songs have a 70s feel, obviously. Rather mellow and smooth going. Mayfield’s voice is nice.

Feb 01 2023

Interesting but not intense enough to my taste. A little boring. Sorry about this.

Feb 02 2023

Nice memories. I definitely like progressive rock. Nice mix of free jazz and rock.

Feb 03 2023

Good memories came back. I enjoyed the first and the last song of the album. 21st Century… is an amazing one!

Smash by The Offspring
Feb 06 2023

Not my style!!

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Feb 07 2023

Good for its kind! Like it as a background music when with my love diner.

Achtung Baby by U2
Feb 08 2023

Kind of boring to me. The signer seams to have very limited tones making each song too similar. The doomsday feeling of the song is a little to heavy for me. Just not my bag.

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley
Feb 09 2023

Great album!!

Kenya by Machito
Feb 10 2023

Great big band Cuban style. Loved it!

The Predator by Ice Cube
Feb 13 2023

Historic powerful album.

Suede by Suede
Feb 15 2023

Not bad. A little outdated. A U-2 sound that must have inspired U-2 in fact.

Faust IV by Faust
Feb 16 2023

Nice and hypnotic!

Vivid by Living Colour
Feb 21 2023

No good!

Psychocandy by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Feb 23 2023

Boring to me. Noisy and depressing

Punishing Kiss by Ute Lemper
Feb 24 2023

Not my type of voice. Too dramatic and theatrical. Sound not incarnated.

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Feb 27 2023

Listen to that too much in the past. Can’t anymore

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Feb 28 2023

Nice album. Liked it.

Mar 01 2023

Not really interesting in 2023. Maybe in 2000 when most were afraid of the millennium scarecrow.

Pictures At An Exhibition by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Mar 02 2023

Surprisingly boring. The audience must have been on reality altering substances to enjoy that show. They really seem to enjoy it.

Trio by Dolly Parton
Mar 03 2023

No thanks!

Bongo Rock by Incredible Bongo Band
Mar 06 2023

Very good percussion album, mixed with 70’s electro.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Mar 07 2023

Did not age well. Boring

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Mar 13 2023

Mar 31 2023

Here, My Dear by Marvin Gaye
Apr 04 2023

Not my style. Too flaky and almost musak musical arrangements. I pass…

Orbital 2 by Orbital
Apr 06 2023

A little annoying. Not great techno. Too high pitch!

Blackstar by David Bowie
Apr 10 2023

Fascinating, but too dark!! End of life feeling. Great artist

16 Lovers Lane by The Go-Betweens
Apr 12 2023

A little too monotonous to me. Melodies not really catchy. That is a style…

Feast of Wire by Calexico
Apr 17 2023

Nice diversity! A little confusing at times because of the sudden change in genre. But great talent. They would be good at writing movie music

Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Apr 19 2023
