Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Jan 09 2023

Very feeling it rock. Love it. Lots of repeating of the same phrases. But music is amazing

She's So Unusual by Cyndi Lauper
Jan 10 2023

Time after time is such a good song. So understandable that it is used in many love scenes in various movies. 15 year old me would have loved this album way more than I do now. Not really my taste in music, but that doesn’t make the album shit.

Moondance by Van Morrison
Jan 11 2023

American music that plays at a bar on the countryside at the closing hour. Or just at a very chill bar. I’m one who don’t really listens to the lyrics during songs. But when I did listen closely to the lyrics, they seemed boring. Læve læve læve, is all he sings about. Oh, he said la la la, my bad. I like the jazzy style over the album. Ok the further into the album I got, the better the music got.

Jan 12 2023

Nooooooo… This is horrible! Listened through the whole album with no skips, and I can definitely still determine that I really don’t like hip hop. Normally when I listen to music, time passes faster.… When listening to this album, time went by so slow…

Jan 13 2023

1.5 Some of the songs are lowkey and almost a jam. Some gets or are boring. Some of the songs are horrible. Some parts of the songs are really good, some parts of the songs are really bad. Praise you is a fine song. Also his most popular in fact. Not my type of album. To much… techno?

Low-Life by New Order
Jan 14 2023

Sunrise👍 Elegia, sounds like a movie soundtrack.

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Jan 15 2023

Band on the run and Nineteen hundred and eighty five are the best! Hence the rating. The songs felt to be a little too long sometimes.

Calenture by The Triffids
Jan 16 2023

Nice. A low 4.

John Prine by John Prine
Jan 17 2023

It is a nice and chill album, hence I am very happy that I didn't listen to it in the gym today. I like: his accent his guitar tabbing his lyrics and the story he tell (when I actually payed attention to what he said).

Duck Rock by Malcolm McLaren
Jan 19 2023

This is ok. 2.5

Face to Face by The Kinks
Jan 20 2023

First 20 seconds impression: Sounds like The Beatles. I would determine this album to lie within the genre I personally prefer.

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Jan 21 2023

First impression: it’s within the decade of music I love (the 70s). It’s a woman! Wow. I hope this is good. Second impression: what a nice beat! She’s good! Love her raspy voice. Third impression: Like the guitar. Oh yeah! Wow. Overall impression: I like it! Listened to this in Annika’s room while we were playing her conversation game called “table topics”, during the pre-party. Turns out it had just had some small talk, surface questions. Annika skipped most of questions. I listened and enjoyed this album meanwhile we played Annika's game.

Jan 22 2023

Nice and chill. Didn’t pay that much attention to it though when I listened. But will probably hear it again. 3.5.

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy
Jan 23 2023

Was looking forward to listen to todays album on the train from Copenhagen to Nyborg. But as it sounded like something be was scrolling through a lot of different channels I decided to listen to it another time. I listened to it when I was back in my lovely boarding room. This is not what I wanted to listen to being very tired after having recovered from a hangover and a whole weekend in Copenhagen. Not gonna lie, when I discovered that the album was one hour long, I stopped listening to it.

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
Jan 24 2023

I really liked it. Is a 5 be too high? I don't know. But I know that I like this album.

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
Jan 25 2023

Changes and Life On Mars will alway be good!

Copper Blue by Sugar
Jan 26 2023

If I didn’t pay attention to the music, I wouldn’t been able to tell the difference between the songs. Lack of variety in the drums and guitar melodies. Sometimes it sounded like white noise.

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly
Jan 27 2023

I like this era of music. The album is good, but nothing special about it. I take it back. It's a really good album. (full stop). Nice drum solo on the side B. 3.5

The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy
Jan 28 2023

I scrolled through it quickly while intoxicated. Didn’t seem like my taste, but not too bad.

Odelay by Beck
Jan 29 2023

It’s ok. I don’t hate it. When it began to sound like computer sounds I began to hate it. 2.5

Unhalfbricking by Fairport Convention
Jan 30 2023

I like it. I like the vibe. A soothing album.

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar
Jan 31 2023

Ok, it is a bit much of the mixing for my taste, but not as bad as the other hiphop albums we have heard. I like the small amount of jazz there is in the album. I listened to it on shuffle... Some of the songs where not me at all, where some of the others songs started really good, but ended up with some mixing... I have determined I do not like mixing. Low 3.

Trio by Dolly Parton
Feb 01 2023

Boring. This is not Dolly's best work.

Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin
Feb 03 2023

YOOOO! ROCK! I like it. I like the length of the album. A high 4.

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
Feb 05 2023

Waait, I already know and love some of these songs!

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Feb 07 2023

Sounds like noise. Have some good element to it, but when it is all put together it mostly didn’t sound pleasant. 2.5

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Feb 08 2023

YEEEES! I wrote my finals about this! I love this album. I believe that this is one of the very best albums I have ever heard in my life, maybe even the best! I love the music, the lyrics, the meaning behind the concept album. I love it all. There are written various analyses of this album, with different interpretations. One have even made a whole website: http://thewallanalysis.com The album starts at the main character's Pink concert, where he warns the audience about the troubles you will meet in life. Then the rest of side 1 is about his childhood and how Pink doesn't remember it to be pleasant, as he was a war baby with a father who died during WWII. Side 2 we hear about Pink as a young adult an growing star, an according to himself facing more life troubles, where he in the end isolates himself completely from the world. Side 3 continues to hear about Pink's thoughts and doubts during his isolation. Side 4 is about the show he then does when he gets out of this isolation, where he additionally took drugs. So he gets on stage, totally drugged out and still preforms the show. During the show he is another character, still Pink, but he feels like someone else. Eventually during this show he has a peak of his existential crisis and concludes where all these "bricks" in his wall came from and that it was himself who in fact build it. This concept album concern themes such as existentialism, trauma, handling of emotion and much more. Fun fact: The sound track of the movie has additionally songs that there wasn't space for in the vinyls, and longer version of some songs.

Dare! by The Human League
Feb 09 2023

Last song = best song. Otherwise nothing special about this very 80s album. It is very background 80s music.

Bad by Michael Jackson
Feb 12 2023

Eh 2.5

Music From The Penguin Cafe by Penguin Cafe Orchestra
Feb 15 2023

Classic music? or??? I like how it is experimenting with the various instruments. A bit weird though.

Morrison Hotel by The Doors
Feb 16 2023

It's The Doors! This better be good. I do not like the sound of the electric piano they use...

Young Americans by David Bowie
Feb 17 2023

Not an outstanding album, not a bad album.

Smash by The Offspring
Feb 18 2023

His singing sounds like he is pushing a poop out. As a whole album there isn’t much variety. However it some good songs.

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Feb 19 2023

I have heard some of the songs to this album and they are good. So I am curious to hear the whole album! Omg This albums is so good! I love the album. I want a vinyl of this. Amazing album!

Trafalgar by Bee Gees
Feb 20 2023

I didn't know that the Bee Gees havde made such depressing song. They aren't bad. It's good songs on this album, but not amazing. A bit too depressing for me. Overall ok album. I don't mind listening to it, but I won't put it on myself. The rating is between 2.5-3

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Feb 22 2023

Hehe, banana. I like the album cover, and now I finally know where this iconic banana comes from! Sunday morning: It is a sunday morning! Femme fatale: Is this woman a part of the band? I have heard her voice before. Venus In Furs: This start of the song is a bit weird. Heroin: This is a good build up! OK it is a long build up. Still a good song though! At the end it gets a bit weird with that guitar. European Son: There is a balance between music and noise. This is noise. Overall ok album, but too much noise. This is not an album I want on a vinyl. The rating is between 2.5-3.

Feb 23 2023

The cover for (I can't get no) Satisfaction! Buster just showed it to me like a few days ago. What a coincidence. Good start. But fades into meh. It's ok.

Grievous Angel by Gram Parsons
Feb 24 2023

A bit boring but it still has it swing to it, however the swing and better part are mostly after you have already listened to half of the song. I can understand that it is a good album, however I won’t listen to it again.

Transformer by Lou Reed
Feb 25 2023

I have two of my very beloved songs on this album, so I have some expectations. … It didn’t live up to my expectations.

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Feb 26 2023

A long album. I understand that people find this album unique, cause so do I. I can appreciate the music, however it’s not my taste. I might listen to it again.

The La's by The La's
Feb 28 2023

I think Annika would like this album. A small 4.

The Wildest! by Louis Prima
Mar 01 2023

I think I have heard his voice on TikTok videos. I like this quite a lot.

Ray Of Light by Madonna
Mar 02 2023

A whole hour long?! I have barely ever listened to Madonna, but this ain’t it. The song are boring, to electrical, too much of the same beat over the whole song and they are too long.

Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Mar 04 2023

3.7. The start of the album was good, but then it went a little down hill.

Smokers Delight by Nightmares On Wax
Mar 05 2023

I can't believe I am giving it this rating

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Mar 06 2023

Not that impressed, but it wasn’t horrible.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Mar 07 2023

Very positively impressed! I like this album!

The Last Of The True Believers by Nanci Griffith
Mar 08 2023

First it sounded like hay day music with vocals. I guess she is from the US? Hope you can feel the sarcasm. It’s a cozy album. I imagine me and Annika on a road trip, having this music on in the background while sitting in the trunk of the car, looking at the horizon, planning where to go next. 3.5

Let England Shake by PJ Harvey
Mar 09 2023

“DJ”… I don’t think I will like this album. Just read an article on Aeon about drum machines throughout time in relation to AI generated music. This is going to be interesting to have in mind when listening to this album. First impression: not bad. GOD THIS ALBUM IS GOOD!

Songs The Lord Taught Us by The Cramps
Mar 10 2023

The singing is awful. And so is various other factors in this album! First I thought it was just the singing that made this awful. But no. So much of it makes this album awful. And I normally find music from the 80s good to ok. But this is definitely below an O.K. album.

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Mar 12 2023

The guy on the album looks like a fuck boy and Owen Wilson but with long hair. Hmmmm, it was ok, not really special. 0.5 extra star for it being rock.

Revolver by Beatles
Mar 13 2023

I love this.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Mar 14 2023

Very good album! However felt like it was missing something… can’t put my finger on what though.

OK by Talvin Singh
Mar 16 2023
3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Mar 17 2023
Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Mar 18 2023

A low 4

Mar 19 2023

It's ok to make math to. I can concentrate while listening to the album. A big 2

Drunk by Thundercat
Mar 24 2023

Ok Chill

Risque by CHIC
Jul 31 2023

I love disco! but not this album that much. It's ok. It's good. But not something I would put on the speakers or in my headphones. I appreciate the album. The album went from good, to boring, to good.

Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
Aug 01 2023

It's a nice album :) I want to listen to it again, and then I might think it is a 5.

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Aug 02 2023

Nice combination of guitar, skin drums, drums, and trumpets. It was a jam. Idk if i'll listen to it again, but I might do.

Heartattack And Vine by Tom Waits
Aug 04 2023

Low 4 because when wearing headphones it sounds like he is spitting in your ear. At the same time it also sounds like someone really enjoyed using sandpaper to make his throat rough.

Hounds Of Love by Kate Bush
Aug 12 2023

I might listen to the album again

Debut by Björk
Aug 13 2023

fine album to listen to while cooking dinner. Though I don’t think I’ll ever listen to it again. Not my jam.

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Aug 15 2023

Very nice and chill. Just what I needed to hear this morning.

Back to Mystery City by Hanoi Rocks
Aug 16 2023

4.5 because half of the album were blocked in my country

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Aug 18 2023

I expected a bit more since it is Black Sabbath, a quite known name. Thought already from the first song I didn't really jam with it. Like it's a good album, but not one that I find that interesting. It's a good album to have in the background. A low 4.

A Walk Across The Rooftops by The Blue Nile
Aug 20 2023

Just realised that I thought the songs were good when the album had stopped and it switched to recommended songs...

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Aug 21 2023

I like the cover of the album. Fist i thought it was German, then i thought it was Korean, then Slovak and after looking at a song title I now think it might be Icelandic. However I don't know what Icelandic sounds like. Now looking at the description of the album, I can inform you that in the end I was right, it is Icelandic that they are singing ;) A high 3 or a low 4.

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Aug 24 2023

I didnt listen to The lyrics. This was a soothing album and just what I wanted to hear today. So today this is a 5.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Aug 25 2023

Amazing

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
Aug 26 2023

quite good. A high 4 or a 5

Aug 29 2023

I’m gonna allow myself to skip this. I don’t like rap! I skipped the first song. The second song “Stan” is kind of ok. The song “the way I am” is a very angry song. I think if I was angry, that I would like it. “Under The influence” makes me aware that he is aware that not all people like his music, but I think that he is taking a reductionistic approach saying that: people who don’t like his shit, can just suck his dick. Where I think he should just be open for other perspective if taste in music. Overall I still don’t like. I understand why Enimen got big, as his music is angry and full of emotion and curse words. 1-2

Justified by Justin Timberlake
Aug 30 2023

This is horrible, rock your body was good for The first 10 seconds as it reminded me of partying with my friends.

Raw Power by The Stooges
Sep 04 2023

Really like

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Oct 25 2023

Boring rock. To The cringe side. 2.5-3.

The Good, The Bad & The Queen by The Good, The Bad & The Queen
Oct 26 2023

Not The Music I expected when I saw the album cover. I still like it. I don’t know if it deserves a 4. And I thought that I recognized the voice! It was Damon Albarn (front singer of Blur)

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Nov 11 2023

I heard this man live!!! Amazing album. I have it on vinyl too!

Rhythm Nation 1814 by Janet Jackson
Nov 12 2023

She looks like a hip hopper. I don't like hip hop. really not my type of music.

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Nov 14 2023

I didn't listen that closely but it sounds chill and nice.

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Nov 15 2023

Some songs on the album are bangers. Others are rather questionable . 4

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
Nov 23 2023

No not hip hop… The first song gave me hope for The album, But already at the third song “Scorpio” I figured this album was not for me.

Queen II by Queen
Dec 02 2023

4. doesnt slaps as hard as their other albums. last song is really good though!

Abraxas by Santana
Dec 14 2023

Love it

Dec 22 2023

3

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Dec 23 2023

Red Hot Chili Peppers has this weird thing were they have a few bangers, and those bangers are really good! The rest of their songs are just not good… they are some kind of off in their non-banger songs

Be by Common
Jan 17 2024

Better than expected. Got some quite viral songs on the album

Nevermind by Nirvana
Jan 25 2024

Sees todays album. *gasp of excitement*

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
Jan 30 2024

Ok good. A bit too much about Jesus and God. Between a 3 and a 4

Atomizer by Big Black
Feb 01 2024

This album isnt avaliable in my country… (Denmark)

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Feb 03 2024

Ok, psycho killer were obviously the peak of the album.

Rio by Duran Duran
Feb 08 2024

Buster and I are not a fan. Buster said: "it sounded like a mix of Joy Vision and The Smiths, without even being good. He would rather just listen to them instead."

LP1 by FKA twigs
Feb 09 2024

This is the kind of music that would annoy me if I heard it in a restaurant or a shop.

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Feb 15 2024

When I saw it was the cure, I had my expectations risen. When I heard the album my expectations lowered. 3

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Feb 24 2024

A little bit too experimental in my taste, however still a really good album! 4

Phaedra by Tangerine Dream
Feb 25 2024
Hotel California by Eagles
Feb 27 2024

First song slams! Rest of The songs kind if dissapoints. 3

Shaka Zulu by Ladysmith Black Mambazo
Feb 29 2024
Led Zeppelin IV by Led Zeppelin
Mar 05 2024

Good songs! One song is more questionable. Overall good album.

Achtung Baby by U2
Mar 07 2024

A high 3. Wasn’t that impressed.

Elastica by Elastica
Mar 20 2024

It’s ok. I’ll either give it a high 3 or a low 4

2112 by Rush
Apr 02 2024

Apr 11 2024
Survivor by Destiny's Child
Apr 12 2024

Brown Sugar by D'Angelo
Aug 20 2024

A bit funny. Sounds like the Italien funky Beatles

Os Mutantes by Os Mutantes
Dec 30 2024

A bit funny. Sounds like the Italien funky Beatles

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
Dec 31 2024

I like the album cover of this one. By the artist name, I could imagine that Buster would like this album. Amazing album. very jammy. Must be amazing to see live.

Locust Abortion Technician by Butthole Surfers
Jan 01 2025

The song U.S.S.A sounds like dogs and cows being tortured. The song O-men sounds afwul. Like it is so weird. It is almost just like noise, if there wasn't the drums and bass in the background. Like I think I would have liked the album, if they have chosen to use less noise.

The Cars by The Cars
Jan 03 2025

It has the 80's sound, but is from 1978. Sounds like it is before it's time. I like it, but I am not blown away. 4

Tommy by The Who
Jan 04 2025

good! However Disc 2 isn't avaliable in my region :/ Disc 1 and 3 are though? (Denmark). It's either a high 4 or a low 5. I might be biased since I generally like music from the 60's and 70's.

Scum by Napalm Death
Jan 05 2025

it was fun listening to the first 10 minutes of the album while digging up sand super fast in Minecraft. However it is way to screamy or whatever you call it, for my taste. A solid 3.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jan 06 2025

I honestly expected more from Red Hot Chili Peppers. I can put my finger on what makes most of their songs off..? However I will give this a big 3, not a 4 due to my disappointment and the off’ness of the music.

Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt
Jan 08 2025

Sounds like David Bowie and his Music sometimes. Had a hard time focusing on the start of the album, because two men happened to walk the same way as me on my way home.
