Face to Face by The Kinks

I love the Kinks. I've been listening to them since I knew what music was, so I might be a little biased. I find their English wit and dreary up-beat sadness really endearing. Sunday Afternoon is one of my all time favourites. They are weird, silly, sad and I love them. But to be fair, I think I prefer their later albums. Overall a solid album. Low 5

Calenture by The Triffids
Jan 16 2023

This one surprised me. Hadn't thought I'd like it much, not really being into that kind of 80s music, but it all came together really nicely. Nice melodic album. Though, probably not going on my personal playlist

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Jan 18 2023

Been trying to get into The Stones for ages, and this album pulled me in! Classic rock tunes with some really spicey saxophone mixed in for flavour. While I jammed to most of the songs, there were a few that where a tad too country for my tastes (looking at Dead Roses...) Probably a low five, but a five nonetheless

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy
Jan 23 2023

I have a soft spot for hiphop and sampling, so this was a joy to listen to. The constant drums and bass really carried the album, love it. This being said, some of the songs really overstayed their welcome and there was no need for the album to last an hour. Think this album is probably enjoyed best in snippets rather than a full listen. My favourite was definitely Fight the Power, such a good finisher. Solid 4

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
Jan 24 2023

This is such a joy to listen to. I wish to be this man someday! What's to say? Just 30 minutes of great jazz. Will definitely listen to it again, amazing to study to. Pt 2 is my favourite by far - the sax just goes wild! High 4, low 5 depending on mood.

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
Jan 25 2023

Just amazing album. Listened to it dozens of times. Straight 5

The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy
Jan 28 2023

Listened to some of it, but I've heard it many times before. Decent album with some good EDM tracks, a little rough on the ears though

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
Feb 05 2023

Great garage album. Sick riffs and edgy lyrics. What's not to like?

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Feb 06 2023

Only listened to the first few songs, but it's Frank Sinatra. You kinda get what he's about. He's good but not necessarily stand-out. I'd put on his singles, but maybe not a whole album

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Feb 08 2023

Didn't manage to listen to the whole album, but it's a classic for a reason I need to dedicate an afternoon to actually listening to the whole thing and see if I get it then

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Mar 06 2023

Can't go wrong with a bit of blues! Very pleasant album, something I'd put on as background music while having a drink with a friend. But really something I'd listen to normally

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Mar 07 2023

YES! This album defined my early teens! The distorted guitar riffs, the off-key vocals (that give it it's all anyways), the corny yet impactful lyrics! I love it all. The album also just feels cohesive and coherent. Each song flows intuitively into each other. Strong album from start to finish!

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

This album is the part of country music that I don't like. It's cute, it competent, but ultimately not my taste. Listening to it was a fun insight into a part of music I've never really interacted with, but that doesn't make it a better album. Probably wouldn't listen to it again 1.5 ish

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Aug 25 2023

Brilliant!! Dave Brubeck is such a classic. The interplay between the woodwinds, the piano, and the drums weave so elegantly together, along with the subtle imagry. It's a delight to listen to!
