Murmur by R.E.M.
Jan 19 2023

Great throwback to REM, but not a huge fan of their style in general or this album specifically.

Songs Of Love And Hate by Leonard Cohen
Jan 20 2023

Some songs nostalgic, not really for me, but can set a mood for when walking and has an almost monochromatic atmosphere (good for winter)

Teen Dream by Beach House
Jan 24 2023

I know the main song of this album, Silver soul, very well from the internet and memes, but over all the rest of the album sticks true to a theme which I always respect. But again not really my type of music, but I can see some moods where this would suit perfectly, gloomy rainy day, where I am not happy/positive. Like a nice wine with cheese.

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Jan 25 2023

Amazing album, sadly could not listen to it fully on spotify... I love the instruments used; cuica. And the inspiration it provided to other artists such as Rob Stewart. Huge fan, and an amazing taste of Brazilian creativity.

John Prine by John Prine
Jan 26 2023

Not a fan at all, but not terrible music

Kid A by Radiohead
Jan 27 2023

Best surprise to see radiohead as my album for todayy, a side to radiohead i never knew but a great surprise. Reading the background on this album and radioheads transition from rock is very interesting, especially while listening through the album

Bad Company by Bad Company
Jan 30 2023

A good rock album, i imagine listening to it on a solo road trip. Besides that, I will probably never listen to it again. (I do admire their technique)

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Jan 31 2023

One of my first full albums of soul rock, huge fan in general, but i respect the genre though. Not really matching my mood today, but happy to explore solomon burke Wont you give him - is my favourite, its light enough to add to a playlist, but overall strong soul album You can tell the album is era appropriate; specifically the guitar and piani riffs and backup singers. Very cool!

OK by Talvin Singh
Feb 02 2023

Powerful and masterfull precussionist, exploring a combination of indian instruments and electronic music. Very cool, experimental, but works!

Feb 03 2023

One of the most impactful albums in my life, and one of my top 5 personal favourite artists. Its funny, today I was suggested this album, and on the sunday I am going to watch aussi floyd (cover band) and roger waters the coming month.

The Renaissance by Q-Tip
Feb 06 2023

Cool album, every song is lyrically and musically powerfull. Solid album as a whole, overall

Hotel California by Eagles
Feb 07 2023

Beautiful album which i associate many memories with. Soulful, powerful, and very euphoric and nostalgic in many ways. One of my personal top 100 albums of all time. I get very feel good and optimistic feelings to most songs in this album.

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Feb 08 2023

Cool british rock, always a fan, but never heard this album before. Very cool, did not know any song in the album after listening to it, but definately a band I will take some time to learn more of and hear more from.

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
Feb 09 2023

Love the band, and some banger songs, i like the album but will not rate it highly, a bit too pop for my personal taste

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Feb 10 2023

I love the band, the album is strong but I am only a fan of individual songs and some specific solos. I am not sure how I feel about the album as a whole. Its great to hear some of Cliff Burton in these songs, and the album has a huge significant value which determined my rating despite not being a huge fan of this album specifically.

Mermaid Avenue by Billy Bragg
Feb 13 2023

Cool album, appreciate it and style. The songs are very meaningfull and wholesome.

Here's Little Richard by Little Richard
Feb 14 2023

Huge fan of rhythm and blues, great album over all, voice is amazing with trumpets and drums to acompany it perfectly. A lot of iconic riffs and cues

Call of the Valley by Shivkumar Sharma
Feb 15 2023

Cool album! Powerful, masterful, and great to listen

The Hour Of Bewilderbeast by Badly Drawn Boy
Mar 08 2023

Interesting album, the first song was terrible, but overall developed very well. Soft indie rock, and groovy. 4/5 for being surprised by an indie rock band. It is very relaxed, not really for me, but an overall solid album.

Trans Europe Express by Kraftwerk
Mar 09 2023

Surprisingly better than I expected, really reminds me of one of my favorite albums by Mort Garson.

Groovin' by The Young Rascals
Mar 10 2023

Cool album, really enjoyed it as a whole this morning. Maybe not quite worthy for a 4/5, i think it lacks a wow factor. I will give it a 4/5 just because it is from '67, and is impressive for the time. Also interesting, how the titles in the album follow a love and breakup story, when listened in order.

Fulfillingness' First Finale by Stevie Wonder
Mar 14 2023

Solid album - easy 4/5 for me The album has some great songs ive never heard before from stevie. Especially the samba influences and use of Cuica in songs.

Darkdancer by Les Rythmes Digitales
Mar 22 2023

3/5 But very impressive

Since I Left You by The Avalanches
Mar 23 2023

Cool concept, having an album of diverse sample based songs. Individually some songs are extremely interesting and catchy, but as a whole the album lacks direction in my oppinion and feels as if they created songs that were not really finished or even hit a climax. 3/5

Van Halen by Van Halen
Mar 24 2023

Extremely impressive skill displayed in this album. A collection of van halen hits, especially "eruption". 4/5

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Mar 27 2023

2/5 - good album, lack of spark/fire of sole sort

Apr 03 2023

4/5 - Extremely powerful and well made album, its clear the amount of effort and time spent creating this.

World Clique by Deee-Lite
Apr 05 2023

Cool disco 3/5 really cool for the 90's, ahead of their time.somehow

Apr 18 2023

Interesting and complex instrumentals, very jazzy but I appreciate the mix with lyrics. Its not often to have good jazz with lyrics incorporated in my experience. Its interesting to see the '69 version of rock from chicago. 3/5

Scott 4 by Scott Walker
Apr 20 2023

Interesting tone - I love that you can feel that the song is from this era. Not really to my taste, a bit slow but not terrible. 3/5

Garbage by Garbage
Apr 24 2023

Cool rock, with interesting parts of the song that are weird at first but make the song a whole almost 3/5

Stripped by Christina Aguilera
Apr 27 2023
Aqualung by Jethro Tull
May 01 2023

4/5

Suede by Suede
May 04 2023

Very interesting album, 3/5

Ctrl by SZA
May 05 2023
Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
May 08 2023

Veryyy cool and trippy, but a bit mundane and lacks intensity for me, 3/5

Permission to Land by The Darkness
May 09 2023

Interesting take to bring back classic rock, songs inspired by classic themes as well. 3/5

Solid Air by John Martyn
May 10 2023

Impressive album for the time and very cool and groovy yet never experimental

Colour By Numbers by Culture Club
May 12 2023

Its funny not recognising the song or band, but the first riff of the first song is so iconic. Rest of the album is diverse, all great in their own way especially for '83 - 4/5

May 17 2023

Dark, cladsic nirvana, great the hear the intermission discussions on stage

D by White Denim
May 19 2023

Very cool start to a nice album, 4/5

Aja by Steely Dan
May 22 2023

Funky and slow, with hints of jazz with exceptional vocals - very smooth but I am not sure if it has that "it factor" although it is very good quality techinally 4/5

Blur by Blur
May 23 2023
May 25 2023

Very cool, trippy psychedelic intrumental music. Does it have a spark, "it" factor? Yes it does, the whole album is very trippy 4/5

Disintegration by The Cure
May 30 2023

Not a super huge fan very dark but not in the way that i like, lowers my mood. Never the less, great musicians, extremely talented. Not a fan of gothic rock, but the cure make it hard to hate. 4/5

Be by Common
Jun 06 2023

Funny to hear kanye in the songs, not necesarily as a feature. (He produced most songs) Very relaxed almost loungy 3/5

Sex Packets by Digital Underground
Jun 09 2023

What a dirtyyyy album, very cool, i was excited because i already had the firdt song saved 4/5

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Jun 12 2023

Euphoric, etheral, folkyy => nice and relaxing Feels almost familial and reflects unity in my oppinion 3/5

Crime Of The Century by Supertramp
Jun 14 2023

Very powerful album, starts strong and.continues strong. Supertramp are like a hidden gem for me, underrated and unknown generally these days. 5/5

White Light / White Heat by The Velvet Underground
Jun 16 2023

Soft, and i love the old scratching effect that comes with old albums. 3/5

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Jun 20 2023

Not for me, but a good album never the less, i found it interesting to hear that the genre can also be desrcribes as "baroque pop" great description 3/5

Life Thru A Lens by Robbie Williams
Jun 23 2023

Great for the 1 hit, angels, although i would have been a fan 5 years ago in highschool, i am not so much of a fan of pop, but still a good album 3/5

The Slim Shady LP by Eminem
Jun 26 2023

5/5 - classic hard eminem but i preffered the marshal mathers lp, although this is still a very powerful album, i have more songs sqved from this album as opposed to the other album which was jut overall better. I did appreciate the little skits in the album, it made it more fun to listen to

The Beach Boys Today! by The Beach Boys
Jun 28 2023

A goos album, a little bit underwhelmed, i expected more. But this is generally not the type of music i like. 3/5

Black Monk Time by The Monks
Jun 29 2023

Great for when its created, but not particularly special 3/5 great to see a german band succeed

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
Jul 03 2023

Beautiful album for jazz, but not something i really love to listen to on repeat. I would respect to watch live but not really more, and thats hard to say

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Jul 05 2023

Better than easy a, but still not for me. More diversity yet still experimental. I appreciate that there are more vocals

Jul 07 2023

21 by Adele
Aug 28 2023

Strong and beautifuk album with great balance

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Aug 29 2023

Good but sad, interestingly it gets more optimistic and brighter by the end. Like the flow of any or most breakups 3/4

A Hard Day's Night by Beatles
Sep 04 2023

Good album, some solid songs but no more than a 3/5 for me

Great versatile album, very solid efforts 3/5

In Utero by Nirvana
Sep 18 2023

Intense album, not a day for me to deeply appreciate grunge, hardcore but not in the right way for me 3/5

Heroes by David Bowie
Oct 13 2023
Time (The Revelator) by Gillian Welch

soft country, its nice as background music for myself, but not a huge fan. Quite repetitive in terms of lyrics, and stretched out for most songs

Play by Moby
Nov 20 2023
The Age Of The Understatement by The Last Shadow Puppets
Nov 22 2023

interesting album, very upbeat, almost like a rocky / folky / salsa - cool combination but not soomething I will relisten to

Brown Sugar by D'Angelo
Nov 23 2023

Very smooth album, cool and comfy for a lounge.

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy
Dec 27 2023

Jan 03 2024

Already had a few of their songs saved, over all teh album is less spectacular as i expected but still a relaxin journey. 3/5

Jan 04 2024

Very calm start to the album, soft rocky. Not my type of album, very calm, but not bad quality. 2/5

Jan 05 2024

Brit punk rock - classic The start is not very interesting Does not develop in a specifically spectacular way, seems quite standard brit rock to me... Amazing given that the album is from the 70's but not to my taste 2/5

Close To You by Carpenters
Jan 10 2024

Great, calm, powerful album

Welcome To The Pleasuredome by Frankie Goes To Hollywood
