Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Dec 08 2022

I own this one on CD but haven't listened to it in many many years. I know this album is very beloved and the music might objectively be great, but somehow I only really connect to the slower songs.

OK Computer by Radiohead
Dec 09 2022

I don't like the vocal production in a lot of these songs at all, it's just mushy and annoying to me. I like some of Radiohead's albums, but this one is just not one I'd randomly choose to listen to.

Ill Communication by Beastie Boys
Dec 12 2022

I love the instrumentals and the production. The rap unfortunately feels like a parody to me at times with how often their style gets spoofed in the media. I can see how it was ground breaking once, but it keeps me back from listening to it on my own.

Country Life by Roxy Music
Dec 13 2022

Nice pop album. Easy to listen to. I might check out more of their albums later.

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Dec 14 2022

I thought I'd give it 5 stars when I saw the album cover, but it's a lot more boring than I remembered. I really only love Sultans of Swing.

Beautiful Freak by Eels
Dec 15 2022

I liked it. Felt like some sort of post grungy poetry reading. Like watching some sad movies about small towns in the middle of a cold and snowy winter day.

Caetano Veloso by Caetano Veloso
Dec 16 2022

This album reminds me of old movies. I don't know if it's the 'happy' sounds in this because it's a genre I never listen to, or if it's the production. But it feels very nostalgic and cozy to me.

Winter In America by Gil Scott-Heron
Jan 04 2023

The music is a bit too mellow for my listening taste, but it was nice. The best for me was the Watergate Blues, I like his spoken word poetry.

Isn't Anything by My Bloody Valentine
Jan 05 2023

It's nice to listen to, but nothing stood out to me.

Drunk by Thundercat
Jan 06 2023

Beautiful album. Not a genre that I would usually gravitate towards, but I'm happy it was my album of the day. Very atmospheric. My favorite song on first listen was Tokyo.

This Is Fats Domino by Fats Domino
Jan 09 2023

It was probably a great album once, but to my ears now it sounds kinda boring.

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Jan 10 2023

It's really nice as background atmospheric music, but I wouldn't reach for it.

Ingenue by k.d. lang
Jan 11 2023

I liked it, I'd listen to it again. Some of it had a musical vibe, some normal pop music. But all very pleasant.

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Jan 12 2023

Another nice instrumental album as background music for my morning routine. But I would never seek it out on my own.

Vauxhall And I by Morrissey
Jan 13 2023

Morrissey albums have such nostalgia to them because I listened to them a lot in my early teens.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Jan 17 2023

OK I'm going to give this my first 5 stars. The instrumentals were beautiful and I tried to do something else while listening at the same time, but somehow this album demanded so much attention I just sat there and enjoyed listening to it.

Dare! by The Human League
Jan 19 2023

I liked it, but nothing too special.

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Jan 23 2023

It was ok, I liked it.

Jan 24 2023

It sounds so outdated to me. I would have loved it in the 2000s but I'm not in the mood for this type of music anymore.

Rum Sodomy & The Lash by The Pogues
Jan 25 2023

It reminds me too much of annoying drunken people. I could never listen to that sober and on my own.

Triangle by The Beau Brummels
Jan 26 2023

It was OK.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Jan 27 2023

Some of these songs would have gotten 5 stars from me. Not a big fan of the hymn like songs though. Still a great album with lots of personality.

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Jan 30 2023

There is a light that never goes out is one of my favorite songs. But in general I feel like the songs on here are really hit or miss. I wish this system had half stars to give it 3.5

Power In Numbers by Jurassic 5
Jan 31 2023

It's a great sounding album and I really like the rap flows too, but I'm just not that big a fan of most hip hop albums. Especially when only listening to it once.

Everything Must Go by Manic Street Preachers
Feb 01 2023

It was better than I expected. I like it!

Alien Lanes by Guided By Voices
Feb 02 2023

The sound is too grating. I even skipped some of it.

Larks' Tongues In Aspic by King Crimson
Feb 03 2023

Not my favorite King Crimson album. The studio recording bonus track kinda was the most interesting.

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Feb 07 2023

Better than the last one. I still don't get all the hype.

Purple Rain by Prince
Feb 08 2023

I liked it, but didn't love it. Some songs more than others.

Screamadelica by Primal Scream
Feb 09 2023

Nobody was screaming.
