Wasn't a fan of his flow but I liked the subjects and the beats were amazing. Lots of different genres which made it a joy to listen to.

Mar 13 2023
The Sounds Of India
Ravi Shankar
Dragged on a little but it was an interesting showcase of Indian classical music, which no one can deny was very influential in the decade later.
3
Mar 14 2023
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Elton John
A few classics but wasnt a fan of the faux southern drawl in some of the later songs. Still a very good listen

The Score
Fugees
Fantastic beats with a nice blend of genres, the lyrics are awesome and Lauryn Hill elevates this album to 5 stars easily. What a singer/rapper!
5
Mar 22 2023
The Pleasure Principle
Gary Numan
This came as somewhat of a surprise. I only knew Cars but the other songs ive heard in one way or the other, mostly through samples. That makes it a very influential album, not just because of its early use of digital instruments. Loved it a lot.

Sunshine Superman

Psychedelic, chill and a fun listen overall.

A few good songs but overall the album did not move me. Didn't hate it, didn't love it.

I write usually write this bit the next day and I can honestly not even remember the album. This hasn't happened before. Completely forgettable.

Better than I expected. I loved the general vibe and nodded my head more than once.
4
Mar 30 2023
The Message
Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
She's Fresh, Scorpio, It's a Shame and The Message are the best songs, sadly the rest of the album doesn't hold up to this high standard. I appreciate the album for helping to make one of my favorite genres, but it hasn't aged all that well. The good songs are really solid, though.
3
Mar 31 2023
The Man Who
Travis
I feel like I've heard this album a dozen times already and I don't mean this in a good way. Very run-of-the-mill, nothing really stood out to me. Boring.
2
Apr 01 2023
Risque
CHIC
Two good songs, the rest was boring. It's a small album, though, so I didn't feel like I wasted my time.

Lots of covers, and their original stuff didn't stick with me. It is ok, but not more than that.

5
Apr 05 2023
GI
Germs
Only good thing I can say is that it was thankfully short. Couldn't even go through the last song when I realized it was 9 minutes long. To me it is just a barrage of noise and it doesn't really seem to end. Horrible, I never want to listen to this album again.

They had their heart in the right place. Sadly they didn't have the raw talent to back it up.

What a great song to start an album with. I never really listened to a Metallica album before, but I'm glad I did.
4
Apr 09 2023
Night Life
Ray Price
I hate ("modern") country music, but somehow the older stuff always clicks with me. I enjoyed this album. The subject matter is depressing, though. Every song is about alcohol enthusiasm, but I guess country music is always about how shit it all is. Would listen to it again.

Better than I expected. I only knew Cult of Personality but the other songs on this album were nice too.
4
Apr 28 2023
The Wall
Pink Floyd
When I saw the length of the album, I rolled my eyes. And while it does feel a bit self-indulgent at times, overall it was really good. Enjoyed it quite a lot and it has an interesting message overall.

...Baby One More Time
Britney Spears
Horrible album, filled with vapid pop songs. I was the right age for it at the time, but even then I hated it. Me getting older hasn't made it any better. The only reason why I won't give this album one star is because The Beat Goes On is actually a great song and I wish I knew it when I was 14.

The Sinking Feeling sounds like it was made in the early 2000s, I'm sure I have heard the same melody at the start in Drum and Bass tracks. Just has a very modern (or timeless?) feeling to it. Good stuff.

Honesetly hated it first. Far removed from what I like and the singing was sometimes really bad. But the heart is in the right place on this album, I feel and it somewhat grew on me when it ended. Weird one.

4

Abbey Road
Beatles
Quite a few songs I liked, but I really don't like the Beatles. They've made some of the most beautiful songs know, but to me, most of their songs are just boring love song fare. Still, 4 stars, because this album had more good songs than bad.

The Holy Bible
Manic Street Preachers
This is one of those bands I've heard of but never really listened to. The music itself didn't blow me away, but the lyrics and general message made it very interesting. Nice slice of early 90s angry politics. Very dark and angry.
4
Jun 29 2023
Rage Against The Machine
Rage Against The Machine
It wasn't as good as I expected, knowing only Killing in the Name. Good lyrics overall, topics I sympathize with generally, but often repetitive and musically it didn't touch me. I respect it, though.

What I love about Hancock is that he saw the advent of synthesizers and instead of being a purist about jazz, he recognized its worth and made it work.

Bridge Over Troubled Water

Bridge Over Troubled Water is a classic for good reason, but I couldn't get into most of the rest of the album. It certainly wasn't bad, just not entirely my thing.

Come Find Yourself
Fun Lovin' Criminals
I like "Scoobie Snacks" a lot, the rest of the album is a bit less... it is not grating, thankfully, so not an entirely bad listen.

Who Killed...... The Zutons?
The Zutons
This was definitely one of the albums of all time!
But seriously, it is obvious that the person who made this album has a taste (as is his right!) except it not entirely my taste at time. To me this sounded a bit too familiar without it moving me. Not bad, but boring.

Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room
Dwight Yoakam
I'm not going as far as saying he thinks his character is in the right for shooting his unfaithful partner, but two songs about it? Leaves a bit of nasty taste in the mouth, because writing a nice song about it does romanticize the sentiment, if even a little.
Also a moneylender named Saul? Pfff. Musically I didn't mind this album, which is rare for country, but it is clear that I just don't understand the genre.

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan
"I was feelin' kinda lonesome and blue
I needed somebody to talk to
So I called up the operator of time
Just to hear a voice of some kind
When you hear the beep
It will be three o'clock
She said that for over an hour
And I hung up"
This made me laugh. Wonderful album and it is easy to forgot that Dylan performed it all by himself.

McCartney
Paul McCartney
It is not that I think it is bad, but I find it all very forgettable. The way I see the Beatles, and McCartney by extension, is that theyve written some of the most beautiful pop music ever, but it is surrounded by some of the most boring schlock. Sadly, this album was mostly the latter.
(As a side note, I'm happy this site does not have a comment section, because I'm sure these are fighting words for some)

Blur
Blur
I love Song Number 2. Honestly the only song of theirs that I know, so I was very exciting to finally hear the album it was from. I'm writing this review the next day and I honestly struggle to remember any of the other songs. They all blur (heh) together. Nothing else stands out or is even remotely memorable. One song doesn't make an album, but it does save it from a 1 star rating.

Unfair, because this is an album I listened to for months whenever I was on the train to school. Happy to report it still holds up after all these years, but that might just be nostalgia and memories talking. Who cares if it does, though?

A Grand Don't Come For Free
The Streets
This is a tough one. One the surface, it is kinda crap. The beats are great, don't get me wrong, but the raps especially just feel off.
But as a whole, it just drives the theme down of a normal bloke who is a bit of a loser, who lost his girlfriend and is going through it. From that context it all comes together for me.
Idk, always had a special place in my heart for the Streets.

Of course already familiar with this singer, 7 Seconds being such a big hit and all, it was nice to hear some of his early work. And especially nice to hear this type of traditional music with a heavy 80s synth vibe to it. Very enjoyable!

Slipknot
Slipknot
I get what they're going for and they are doing it very well. Shame that what they were going for is making an anthem for the edgy, anti-social, unkempt guy whose main goal in life is driving his shitty beater and being a menace to his small town.
It's not even that the music is bad, it is actually pretty good most of the time. It is hard and dirty, sometimes with other genres mixed in. And Wait and Bleed is still a banger. The big issue is just that the subject matter feels so juvenile, it makes it hard to take it seriously, even though it feels like Slipknot takes itself *very* seriously.

Untitled (Black Is)
SAULT
Some say repetitive, I say it is hypnotic. The beats are good enough that they don't get boring despite repetition, accompanied by a powerful message. Just don't expect te learn anything new, empowerment and pride seems to be the goal here. If you want more out if it, it probably isnt meant for you and that is fine.
As an aside, this is why I listen to a new album every day. I find stuff I wouldn't have discovered otherwise and it is amazing.

When this album popped up I felt a little despair. A genre I don't care for, edgy name and edgy album art.
Fortunately I was pleasently surprised and once again reminded why I do this every day. Get out of my comfort zone, hear something I normally wouldn't and find out that it is pretty good.

Expected to hate it, never listened to a Swift song before (not that I could recognize, anyway). She makes the type of music I normally try to skip. But this was far better than I expected. I can see why she is so popular, because if I liked her genre, I'd be all over it.
Best song was 'no body, no crime', its conclusion made me laugh

Now I Got Worry
The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
I don't give a 1 star often (this album is my third after 300+ albums), because I can usually find something redeemable, but this album was just a pain. The singing/screaming is often incomprehensible, it is a lot of harsh noise and the worst sin of all (which knocked it down from 2 to 1 stars) is that it is 1h20 minutes long. You have to come with something really special for me to want to spend ~1/24th of my day listening to you and this is very far from that. Couldn't even finish it (first time that happened!!!) once I realized I barely made it half way, This is too self-indulgent.

What I'd expect from Swift. Very well done, obviously high quality both in music and lyrics. Just definitely not for me.

A Hard Day's Night
Beatles
I always say the same when Ive listened to a Beatles album, but it is the same here. A couple really good songs with a majority of forgettable songs. I don't hate them, but I also don't see the hype. Guess I'll just have to stick to a Greatest Hits collection.

Feb 14 2024
Will The Circle Be Unbroken
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
I didn't hate the music, which is why it gets 2 instead of 1 star. The music was good, actually. Liked what I heard more than I expected. But two hours? As an album, it fails for me. It is too much for what it is.

Natty Dread
Bob Marley & The Wailers
I grew up listening to Bob Marley, I still listen to him regularly (should be more often) and I hope when I'm old and gray, I still listen to him.
The lyrics of his political songs still work today, it is universal.
5
Feb 25 2024
Pictures At An Exhibition
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
I like the original a lot, so it was a surprise to see there was a prog rock version. And it was actually good, it was a nice cover with the same feeling as the original while giving its own spin. Point docked for the singing, though. Did not add anything.

Fiona Apple
It was nice, not much to say about it. Middle-of-the-road.

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below
OutKast
I went in hating this album. 2 hours! Are they insane?? It is too much! But hey, I loved Stankonia back in the day and I like Outkast in general, so I kept on going.
I am glad I did. The first disc dragged me right in, but near the end I was wondering how far I'd get on the second disc. Well, let me tell you, dear reader, I did not stop nodding my head the entirety of disc 2. Engrossed, is the word.
So yeah, long ass album but worth it to me. Which is a rarity.

Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul

Otis Redding doing classic covers. An album full of cover would normally not do it for me, but this was so good.

Mar 05 2024
Made In Japan
Deep Purple
There are other albums that deserve a place on this list. I'm ok with Deep Purple, but this album is too long and has songs that another album on this very list has too. It is already hard to make a case for live albums on this list and the only thing I know for sure is that this isn't it.

Bluesbreakers
John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers
The first two songs, I was into it. But the longer it went on, the more I realized I was listening to a cheap imitation of the genre. The drums were messy, the singing flat. The guitarplay is all that is really good, but I feel like it mostly hides how bad everything else is. Weird album.

You ever have an album that just doesn't register? You hear it, but it just becomes backgrouns noise. It's not bad, it's not offensive. It's just there, making no impact whatsover. This is that album for me.

More Specials
The Specials
It's decent ska, but I've heard so much better. I love reggae and all its subgenres it's just that this album just didn't hit me like this genre often does. It meandered on without really taking it anywhere. Whenever it bent to another genre, it fell flat.
3
Apr 10 2024
Can't Buy A Thrill
Steely Dan
Oh man, I wanted to give this album 5*, because the good songs (Do It Again, Only a Fool, Reelin' in the Years) are excellent. The rest just fell short for me and sadly dragged the album down. Shame, was looking forward to this one.

Is This It
The Strokes
I feel like ive heard this album before on this list. I get that a lot of people like it, but it is just so... bland. Like so many rock albums, it is loud, abrasive and at times politically engaged. There's nothing unique and exciting about it. I'm not saying I hated it (and it was mercifully short), it's just that this scene completely passed me by in 2001 and I do not have the fuzzy nostalgic feelings that could make it a classic in my eyes.

Pacific Ocean Blue
Dennis Wilson
The thing I have learned after more than 400 albums is that if an album is almost 2 hours long, chances are, half the songs can be scrapped. I don't see why we needed two hours, so in that it fails as an album. It wasn't even bad, but I kept looking at the time wishing it would be over sooner than later.

Great beats, sometimes a little preachy. Wanted to give it 5 stars because I was nodding my head constantly. But then after the album, Spotify gave me a Brand Nubian song and I was reminded there is better in this style. Still a very good album, just not entirely there.

It felt more modern (early 90s) than I'd expect from a 1986 album, so I got to give them credit for that. Sadly this style is mostly wasted on me.

The Slim Shady LP
Eminem
Classic. After his excellent (and more radio-friendly) album Infinite failed commercially, Eminem decided to embrace his unhinged alter ego. Yes, the lyrics are crass and disgusting, but it is also clear that Slim Shady is an awful persona. See Role Model. Eminem begs you to not take it seriously. The absurdity of the violence and insanity pushes the album into dark humor and I can't help but laugh at the clever turns of phrases. Excellent stuff.

Songs In The Key Of Life
Stevie Wonder
I'm of the opinion that any album longer than an hour usually has songs that could easily be cut and it would improve the album.
Yes, every song on this album is between good and great, but even good and great songs lose their lustre when they go on too long. Now imagine a single album with only the best songs, it would've been so tight. Now it just meanders on at points, it is a shame.

Back to Basics
Christina Aguilera
I couldn't finish this album, which is rare. I always try to give the albums on this list a proper listen. Her style of singing, however, annoyed me to no end. It's too similar, and while technically good, it feels too insincere. I don't know if the latter is actually true, but that's how it came across
I couldnt get through with it and all this supposed homage to the classics evoked in me was the feeling to shut this shit off and listen to the actual classics this album was dedicated to.

A Seat at the Table
Solange
I expected to hate it but I was pleasantly surprised.

Jul 12 2024
Marcus Garvey
Burning Spear
Excellent. I'm probably biased because I love reggae and it's 30 degrees celsius where I am now, so the album sounded even better. Now to track down the original release.

Jul 13 2024
World Clique
Deee-Lite
Groove is in the Heart is such a banger, sadly the rest of the album does not come close.

Jul 14 2024
People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm
A Tribe Called Quest
The sampling on this album is so good, wonderfully intelligent rhymes and delivered with an excellent flow. Enjoyed it from start to finish.
5
Jul 15 2024
Good Old Boys
Randy Newman
Weird album, I get what Newman is trying to do here but (in 2024 at least) it is missing its mark. Too crude, the point often hammered down. Maybe it was necessary when it came out.

Jul 16 2024
Skylarking
XTC
I wanted to listen to anything but this. Just felt too much like other, better artists.
2
Jul 17 2024
A Rush Of Blood To The Head
Coldplay
Coldplay is best when you don't pay much attention to it. Nice background tunes while you focus on something else. Not the most ringing endorsement, but it is comfortable. Nothing deep, nothing difficult. Like a piece of gum.

Live At The Star Club, Hamburg
Jerry Lee Lewis
The man is a mess but he can perform like an angel.
4
Jul 19 2024
Rattlesnakes
Lloyd Cole And The Commotions
Really nothing to say about it. It was boring.
2
Jul 20 2024
Daydream Nation
Sonic Youth
This album hasn't convinced me into loving this genre, but I was on board for the duration.
4
Jul 21 2024
Moon Safari
Air
One of those albums that I've apparently listened to 100s of times because it was on rotation at a previous job. So yeah, this is hotel reception music.
3
Jul 22 2024
Blood And Chocolate
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
It is an Elvis Costello album.
3
Jul 23 2024
Scream, Dracula, Scream
Rocket From The Crypt
This album washed over me. Generic sounding rock music. I can't think of anything else to say about it.
2
Jul 24 2024
The Sensual World
Kate Bush
Deeper Understand and This Woman's Work are great. Loved the imagery. The other songs didn't hit as hard, but I still enjoyed it overall.
4
Jul 25 2024
Basket of Light
Pentangle
Troubadour 60s folk with sitar. You'd think it'd be unique, but this is not the first album I've heard like it on this list. The 60s were something else.
3
Jul 26 2024
Destroyer
KISS
This was bad, glad it was over with quickly.
2
Jul 27 2024
In A Silent Way
Miles Davis
Short and steady.
5
Jul 28 2024
Third
Soft Machine
The first song was just annoying. As if it was designed specifically to irritate me. The rest was a little better, but not enough (not even close) to win me over.
2
Jul 29 2024
Imperial Bedroom
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
This is the secon time in a week that I get Costello, and it really makes him worse.
2
Jul 30 2024
I See You
The xx
Nothing special, didnt hate it, didn't enjoy it much either.
3
Jul 31 2024
The Dreaming
Kate Bush
Wonderfully weird. I couldn't always follow what she was on about, but I liked the music, I liked her weird singing. Idk what else to say.

Aug 01 2024
Songs Of Leonard Cohen
Leonard Cohen
I like his lyrics, they evoke an image that hits home with me. Sadly the music was a bit too simple and instead of turning it into an intimate whole, it felt bare-bones instead. That's what makes it a difficult album for me. I like Cohen's voice, I like the lyrics on this album but as a whole I didnt feel as much raw emotion as I shouldve. That puts it in the middle-of-the-road category.
3
Aug 02 2024
Ghosteen
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
I just don't get the appeal. I can tell a lot of care and talent is put in this album, a lot of emotion too, yet it leaves me completely unfazed and it quickly turned into background noise. It does not grab me.
2
Aug 03 2024
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
Fast Car is a classic, don't think that can ever be taken away. Sadly the rest of the album isn't as good, but it came close enough.
4
Aug 04 2024
Golden Hour
Kacey Musgraves
As far as country goes, it was alright. Nothing special, though.
3
Aug 05 2024

Turn You Inside Out is awesome, the rest was boring.

I saw all the 5s and got excited. What a letdown. Love the music, but couldn't stand the singer's voice.

Aug 07 2024
Permission to Land
The Darkness
Music from a bygone era retreaded. Its fine, but definitely nothing new and exciting.

Something Else By The Kinks
The Kinks
What am I missing? I had to keep reminding myself that this was not the Beatles.
2
Aug 09 2024
The Hissing Of Summer Lawns
Joni Mitchell
Couldn't get into it. Boring, weird.
2
Aug 10 2024
The College Dropout
Kanye West
Listening to this album again after many years hasn't changed my mind on him. Kanye is a gifted producer, mid rapper and he turned out to have a despicable personality. This album gets three stars for the beats alone.

Sheer Heart Attack
Queen
What a great album, only half an hour and most of the songs are classics.

Nothing special punk and 2h15m of it. Lol. Lmao even.

Uneventful, forgettable, in fact, I can barely remember it a day later.

Fun pop rock album, nothing more to say about it.

Yay another Smiths album and Morrisey's whining singing. This is getting so old.

The Sun Rises In The East

Back to Mystery City
Hanoi Rocks
It was alright. Loved that it was so short.
3
Aug 28 2024
Fetch The Bolt Cutters
Fiona Apple
Fun lyrics, but I didnt care much for the music. It was alright.

Aug 29 2024
Swordfishtrombones

Waits has such a distinct style and it is growing on me. Some albums are more of a miss, but this one is definitely a hit.

Idk what it says about me when I didnt think it was outrageously horny. Like the music, always had a soft spot for Aerosmith.

But boring at times, great at others. Really a middle-of-the-road album.

MTV Unplugged In New York
Nirvana
Intimate rendition of some of their biggest songs and somehow making it the better version. Wonderful.
5
Sep 06 2024
MedΓΊlla
BjΓΆrk
I figured I would hate this, but I love what she did here. It's a unique experience, an album that's mostly acapella but if you stop listening to it intensely, it sounds like normal music. That's an achievement.

Boy In Da Corner
Dizzee Rascal
I can't believe some of his biggest hits were made in his early teens. Massive talent.

Awesome album, but not reaching the greatness that the name recognition suggests it should.

John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band
John Lennon
This is crap. If this is all you knew about Lennon you'd think he was an awful singer who thinks too highly of himself.
1
Sep 12 2024
Go Girl Crazy
The Dictators
Ive heard so many variations of this on this list, but it all sounds the same. It's getting boring.

Sep 13 2024
Highway 61 Revisited
Bob Dylan
Was fine, did fall asleep while listening but I was very tired and I dont think it is fair to blame Bob for that.
3
Sep 14 2024
Call of the Valley
Shivkumar Sharma
Interesting classical Indian music but I didnt care much for it.
3
Sep 15 2024
You've Come a Long Way Baby
Fatboy Slim
Awesome beats, especially if you consider how it was made. In 2024 this would be much easier to make, but back then he had to cut and paste it all using a sampler, which is a PITA to work with. Impressive albeit a little repetitive.
4
Sep 16 2024
Ogden's Nut Gone Flake
Small Faces
Why did I move here? I guess it was the weather. Or theβ¦ Ah, I donβt know, that thing. That magic. You see it in the movies. I wanted to retire. From what I was doing, you know? From that, thatβ¦ line of work. Be a good guy for once, a family man. So, I bought a big house. Came here, put my feet up, and thought Iβd be a dad like all the other dads. My kids, would be like the kids on TV. We could play ball and sit in the sun. But well, you know how it is.
Anyway, first song slapped, went downhill from there.

The first and last song are the best, really great. Rest was ok.

Bringing It All Back Home
Bob Dylan
I like Dylan, but this was a weak album. I started getting into it up when Don't Think Twice, It's Allright started playing, only to realize the album was finished and Spotify served me something else.

Sep 25 2024
Triangle
The Beau Brummels
Very basic, thankfully it was less than 30 minutes long.

Sep 26 2024
White Light / White Heat
The Velvet Underground
Didnt finish it. An hour too long and it is mostly experimental noise.

Very pop, not much else to say.
2
Sep 28 2024
Rapture
Anita Baker
First couple songs I've hear in a remixed form in a completely different genre (jungle iirc) so that was a nice surprise. Beautiful voice, but not enough to woo me.
3
Sep 29 2024
Brown Sugar
D'Angelo
Brown Sugar is one of those songs that sticks with you for a few days, it is just so good. I wished the rest of the album hit that high but that sadly wasnt the case.

Sep 30 2024
Merriweather Post Pavilion
Animal Collective
It is impressive that something this noisy can be so boring.
2
Oct 01 2024
Here Are the Sonics
The Sonics
Album full of covers that are worse than their original. I actuallt like their sounds-it is nice and raw- but the covers suck. Best thing about the album is its length.

Oct 02 2024
Pretzel Logic
Steely Dan
First song is great, the album peters out after that.

It's A Shame About Ray

I feel like I've heard this album a lot. Sounds great, but very similar to others in the genre.

Oct 09 2024
(What's The Story) Morning Glory
Oasis
I assumed I was going to hate this album. Wonderwall is a cliche at this point and the brothers have made a fool of themselves more than once over the decades.
But you know what? It works. It's a very pleasant album to listen to and most of the songs work really well. Pleasantly surprised.

Fun album! Just dragged on a little too long.

To Pimp A Butterfly
Kendrick Lamar
This album is exhibit A of how Lamar dogwalked Drake during their back-and-forth earlier this year. The man is sharp, smart, obviously well-read and extremely talented.

Sincere
Mj Cole
Oh, this difficult. First impression was "2 hours? For fuck's sake!" I automatically dock a star, it's just what it is.
But then I heard that familiar beat, like an old friend who I haven't seen in years. It is a garage album! That genre I so loved in my late teens/early 20s. I got really into it, but near the end of the first hour, the repetition got to me and I still had another hour to. Once again strengthening my opinion: an album that long can easily lose half the tracks (or more) and it will always be an improvement. Cut the fat, stop being so in love with yourself. This could've been an easy 5 stars for me, if it did not outstay its welcome. Old friend or not, stop the yap.

Sad stories told by the Chairman of the Board. Got a little old by the end of it.

Oct 25 2024

Digital Underground
Very old school, unique style but I got a bit tired of those simple 80s raps. The genre has evolved over the years.

God what a noise. Good noise at first, but it also gets old quick.
3
Oct 27 2024

Very very very standard. Idk why it is on the list. Not that it is bad, but is it one of the best albums ever? I can't see it.

Couple good songs on this album, especially Celebrity Skin, but mostly mediocre.

It's a (fake) movie soundtrack, but not like any of the good ones like Morricone, Poledouris, Zimmer, Williams, or countless others. Weird album.

Britpop, what else is there to say. It's not offensive, but not very good either.

Like the Beatles but slightly different. And I already dont care much for the Beatles.

There's A Riot Goin' On
Sly & The Family Stone
I love funky music like this, but I felt something was missing. Cant put my finger on it, maybe them playing around with different genres?

Nov 14 2024
Timeless
Goldie
Love drum and bass, but this album is too long. I dont even mind the 20 minute song much, it's pretty good actually. But half of the songs couldve been cut easily and the album wouldve improved immensely. Sad. I was happy to see another DnB album on this list (a little diversity after a shitload of britpop or obscure american bands from the 60s) but Ive got to be honest and say that this album just doesn't hit the 5 star level.
4
Nov 15 2024

The Renaissance
Q-Tip
Never hear of him before, but this was great. Great beats with an old school feel, nice lyrics and flow.
5
Nov 19 2024
The Marshall Mathers LP
Eminem
Ironclad flow, beats that make it impossible to not nod your head and lyrics that still manage to make people upset after 24 years. What a follow up to the Slim Shady LP.
5
Nov 20 2024
Logical Progression
LTJ Bukem
Normally I hate overly long albums (and I'm glad I found the review stating that the wrong album is linked, because that one is over 3 hours long), but this flew by. I love jungle music so much.

Dec 02 2024
Rings Around The World
Super Furry Animals
If I listened to any individual song, I wouldn't be very impressed. But as an album it is fantastic how so many genres are woven throughout. You never know where they're taking you next and that gives it a lot of charm. Fun!

I respect what this album did for music, but I'd be lying if I said I loved it.

ΓgΓ¦tis Byrjun
Sigur RΓ³s
I didn't look up the translation, because I don't roll this way. Good music is good wether I understand what's being said or not. And this was good. The type of music that makes you feel like youre walking in a dream, or as a character in a movie when you walk through the familiar streets of your hometown. Music that gives you goosebumps because it just hits the right way. That's all you really need.
Only complaint is that it dragged on a little too long.

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

Luckily it is not garbage, I enjoyed it enough. It just didnt blew me away as I suppose it did to others. Felt very samey very quickly. Good background music, though.

No Other
Gene Clark
No suprise it didn't leave much of a mark when it came out. It is pretty standard, nothing mindblowing.

Dec 27 2024

David Bowie
Maybe I'm missing something, but it was very basic. Probably should have been there.

Dec 28 2024
A Northern Soul
The Verve
I don't think I finished the majority of songs on this album, which is a rarity. Painfully boring, that's my main takeaway.

Love the diversity of genres on this album, although I felt it kept going on a little too long. 1 hr was too much.

Bitte Orca
Dirty Projectors
Weird noises, weird music and boring to boot.
2
Jan 05 2025
Ambient 1/Music For Airports
Brian Eno
Made me want to take a train.
In all seriousness, this was a hard listen. Repetitive, and not at all interesting.

Jan 06 2025
Opus Dei
Laibach
Weird album. It was a constant ebb and flow between digging the album and wondering wtf I was listening to. Sort of enjoyed it, I guess.

Really good music, just one or two songs that didnt do it for me.
4
Jan 10 2025
Arc Of A Diver
Steve Winwood
Idk why everyone is nasty about this album, there is a lot of good on here. Funky, disco, tight beat. Ostentatious coke-fueled 80s vibe. What's not to love.

Beck
It sounds good and all, but it never gets great.

Very troubadour, but I have to admit I like the band's later work better.

Ghostface Killah
Great beats, great bars. There's not much else to say.

Beach Samba

Even though I was freezing my ass off listening to this, I felt warm inside. Not as great as other Bossa Nova on this list, but still good enough.

Mothership Connection

What an amazing album, short but very powerful. Vibes so funky, it cured my arthritis!
5
Jan 17 2025
The Visitors
ABBA
Wow, an Abba album my mom didn't listen to death. It's fine, didn't blow me away. Very similar to their other work, light Disco for people who don't listen to Disco.

Searching For The Young Soul Rebels

Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury
The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy
Great beats, decent lyrics. It just felt a little too much like Public Enemy. Not as orgininal as it couldve been.
4
Jan 21 2025
Live 1966 (The Royal Albert Hall Concert)
Bob Dylan
Didn't finish it. I like Dylan, but not enough to listen to an hour and a half concert. I don't think concerts have their place on this list, really. Unless it it is really exceptional (this wasn't it)

The Lexicon Of Love
ABC
Very 80s. I enjoyed it for what it is.
4
Jan 23 2025
Phaedra
Tangerine Dream
Nothing happens. All build-up and no payoff. I'm sure it was revolutionary when it came out, but even back then there were better examples of electronic music (namely Kraftwerk).
2
Jan 24 2025
L.A. Woman
The Doors
I love The Doors. I love so many songs of theirs. But this album was mostly a dud. The famous two or three hits were great, everythint else was a huge dud. Shame, did not expect this.

Siouxsie And The Banshees
One of those albums I can't remember much of the next day.

Jan 27 2025
Music Has The Right To Children

Interesting stuff. Can't say I enjoyed it all, but I kept nodding my head an it did grab me somewhat. Might need a couple more listens to truly decide if I like it or love it.

It is a lot of noise, but within the noise there is a tight rhytmn that activated my almond.

This album sounds like it would be used in the background of a government PSA or work safety instruction video in the 90s. Boring.

Meat Puppets II
Meat Puppets
The best songs were the ones without vocals. The singing was horrendous. I had to go outside and listen there to make sure my neighbors did not think I was hurting my cat.
It should be a 1 star, but the music itself wasn't too bad. It was pretty good, actually, just completely ruined by the singing.

Private Dancer
Tina Turner
Very 80s, but what a voice. The classics on this album (Private Dancer and What's Love Got To Do With It) are forever classics. Only thing that bothered me is that the album felt a little too long.

Feb 06 2025
KIWANUKA
Michael Kiwanuka
Very pleasant surprise. Never heard of him but wish I had 10 years ago. Cool combo of soul and rock and the quality stays up throughout. I want to hear more from him!

Chill reggae, just as I love it.

Follow The Leader
Korn
Couple songs on this album still sound great (the hits, basically) but overall it just feels really dated. Worst of all is that it really drags on, I had to start skipping tracks.

Trout Mask Replica
Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
This sounded awful. Looking into it more, it did not make it better. Someone should have told Beefheart "no" and not let this failed project get as far as it did. I honestly feel like the kid in The Emperor's New Clothes, where everyone says it is amazing and all I see is a floppy dick.

Out Of The Blue
Electric Light Orchestra
Milquetoast is the word that kept jumping up in my mind while listening to this album. It doesn't help that it is over an hour long, I feel like all that couldve been said musically was said in the first 20 minutes. Mr. Blue Sky is a nice song, though, but that is the only one that really stood out to me.

I don't like country and this album did not convince me otherwise. What a drag.

It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back
Public Enemy
Its amazing to finally listen to this album and recognizing so many small, throwaway lines as the basis of songs by other artists in completely different genres. *That* is influence.

Cypress Hill
Cypress Hill
Very enjoyable, although a little too long/repetitive.

Feb 23 2025
Da Capo
Love
When I was presented with the cover, i had to suppress a groan. Another 60s band where the band poses together, preferable in nature. But I try not to let a cover guide my opinion. Sadly it was just as expected: nothing special. Ive heard so many albums like this so far.

I appreciate that this was an inspiration for many bands to come, but some of the noise that was produced made me grimace involuntarily. It's shite.

This is the fifth Nick Cave album I have gotten. I get that people like Cave but enough is enough. I liked this album better than his other albums, but I still don't get it.

Unvelievably dull. I get Eno was ahead of his time, but it feels like it goes nowhere. Ambient shouldve been called meandering.

One of those rock albums that sounds a lot like other rock albums of the time. Nothing special.

When I read "proto-punk" I already lost all interest, but I was pleasantly surprised.

Blood On The Tracks
Bob Dylan
I must say, after hearing many Dylan albums on this list, that I kinda felt tired about the prospect of hearing *another* Dylan album. Luckily this one was great, probably one of his best.

Forgettable.
2
Mar 09 2025
Revolver

This album only strengthened my belief that you can best experience the Beatles through a Best Of compilation instead of the individual albums. On each album are one or two genius works of art while everything else is boring and forgettable.

More of the same, one of those artists who get all the hype and leaves me baffled.

Iβve Got a Tiger By the Tail

I really really don't care about country. All the commenters whining about how there's too much british music on this list, meanwhile I feel like im about to loose it when there is another southern twang singer complaining about how shitty their life is. I. DONT. CARE.

Yeah, I couldnt tell the songs apart. Just one stream of similar noise. Good noise, mind, just wish there was more variation to it.
3
Mar 31 2025
The ArchAndroid
Janelle MonΓ‘e
Very well-produced albeit a little too long which hurt the latter half of the album. I wish there was a half star or a three quarter star, because this is the only thing stopping me from giving it 5 stars.
All the different styles and rhythms showed me that MonΓ‘e is a very talented and broad artist. I had no idea who she was and I want to hear more from here.

Like Water For Chocolate
Common
I used to listen to this album all the time in my late teens. It was my shit, it was formative and I am happy I listened to it when I did. Listening to it now, it doesn't hit quite the same. I though Common's flow was lacking more than once, not even his pleasant voice could make up for it.
But you know what? For the great beatsx the positive vibes and the buckets full of nostalgia that I felt re-listening to this, it is going to get 5 stars from me, even though if came at this purely objectively, it probably doesn't deserve it. Thankfully music is not objective.
5
Apr 02 2025
Live And Dangerous
Thin Lizzy
I wouldve rated this higher if this wasnt a love concert. I really do not care for them, especially the older ones where the sound quality is wank. I would've loved watching it.

After listening, I read that this was (based on) a previously abandoned album, and I could tell why they abandoned it.

At Folsom Prison
Johnny Cash
Funny, a few days ago I wrote in my review how much I dislike live recordings, but I guess the audience for this one makes it a bit more special. Enjoyed it a lot, Cash is the rare country star who I adore.

New Gold Dream (81/82/83/84)

Very basic 80s synth pop. Im sure it was new and fresh when it came out, but I had trouble finding a lot of value listening to this album

Weird album, didn't like it.

Apr 08 2025
Songs From A Room
Leonard Cohen
I wanted to rate it lower, because this album didnt grab me as much as other work I've come across. Musically it is not his best work. But then, somewhere halfway, I really got into the stories Cohen told. He's not the best singer, the music that supports it is also not the best, but he is so imaginative. He drags you into this world he creates and it is easy to imagine it all. Good stuff.

Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor
Lupe Fiasco
Wasn't a big fan of his rap style at first. Never like it when rappers breath in sharply after every sentence, but the good message, good stories and tight beats won me over at the end. Good stuff.
5
Apr 15 2025
Yeezus
Kanye West
My opinion about West in his life outside music aside, I never vibed with him. His rap style always seems so basic, and this album shows it yet again. Reliance on auto-tune, nonsensical lyrics, mid cadence and rhytemn and he is so full of himself. Annoying.
The one saving grace is that the beats, as always, are exceptional.

Drags on a little bit and I only really loved London Calling. Sadly that was the first song and the album was an hour long.
3
May 02 2025
Too Rye Ay
Dexys Midnight Runners
Come On Eileen is such a banger and it was on twice. That alone gave it an extra star, because if we're going to be honest, the rest of the album deserves only three stars. They seem like a great band to see in a small venue, though.

The Nightfly
Donald Fagen
Started off liking this album, but the longer it went on, the more often I checked the time. The songs are too long, which is impressive on a 38min album, made it feel twice as long.

Arcade Fire
Nothing special, very much the sound of the time, but I didn't mind that today.
3
May 17 2025
Faust IV
Faust
A few good songs, which save it from a 1 star. But the noise in some of the bad song (especially the first and last songs) were absolutely awful. Literal noise, had me turn down the audio because it was so grating. I thought something was wrong with my device at first.
2

A bit long-winded but I didnt end up hating it. Very 90s.

My least favorite album of theirs. Lots of yelling, very loud. Doesn't hit as well as others I've heard.
4

Honestly cant remember a thing about it the next day. Just that it is inoffensive 90s rock.

Sign 'O' The Times
Prince
I expected this to be an easy 5 stars, but damn, it just wasnt that good. None of the hits, no songs that stood out, nothing special. Still, it's Prince so it wasn't bad, but I expected more.
4
May 22 2025
Dusty In Memphis
Dusty Springfield
I expected to like this album more, but it was a lot of the same thing and nothing came really close to Son of a Preacher Man. Good stuff, no doubt about that, just a little too much of the same thing.
4
May 23 2025
Faith
George Michael
Couple good songs, but a lot of it is just cliche 80s pop
3
May 24 2025

What a nice surprise. Never heard of Thundercat before, and it is basically My Shit. Might went on a little longer than I wanted, but I still nodded my head and tapped my foot the entire hour.
5
May 25 2025
Physical Graffiti
Led Zeppelin
Really good music, but 1h30 is a lot to ask and it didn't quite catch my attention throughout. Never a good sign when you keep checking how many songs are left.
4
May 26 2025
I'm Your Man
Leonard Cohen
The first song sounded like an 80s scifi soundtrack, no? I wished it wouldve kept that vibe throughout the album, but it quickly turned into your more standard Cohen fare. Lyrically it wasn't as good as I expect from him either. Promising start turned into a bit of a let down.

Whenever I see it is a postpunk album, I expect something like this. They all start to sound the same to me.

It's the Cure. I can't get over the singer's singing style. It's all very whiny. I enjoy the music, though

Very topical for multiple reasons, this is quite a departure from what I'm used to from the Beach Boys. Very political, verh conscious. I like it.

I didnt listen to all the songs on Spotify, because the deluxe version was the one linked and 2 hours would have really made me hate this. I kept to the original tracks. As it stands, I quite enjoyed this.

Technique
New Order
Nice early edm, but it slides back to Joy Division's sound now and then, which really wasn't necessary. It wouldve been a better album if they kept the focus of the first track.

Brutal Youth
Elvis Costello
Oh hey. How quaint. Another Costello album. I started off this project not knowing anything about hia music. Then I enjoyed it, or at least appreciate it. And now I'm at the point where, after 4 albums or so, I feel like I'm getting sick of him. Every album sounds the same, stop it. One entry wouldve been enough.

Fun album which lost me at times with some of the singing near the end. But still, hearing an album start with the og ps music and street fighter 2 was nice for nostalgia.

The Bones Of What You Believe
CHVRCHES
I've only heard of this band through Death Stranding, and I liked this better than what I've heard there. It feels very much like pop music, except with a little more bite.

Paranoid
Black Sabbath
Whatever you think of Ozzy Osbourne, you can't deny that he is the best example of a rock legend. Good and bad. RIP.
As for the album, I love the three 3 most well-known tracks , but then also hated Planet Caravan because it took me out of it entirely, as if it belonged on a different album. And that feeling stayed with me throughout, even though Iron Man came right after. The songs that followed just weren't enough to shake that feeling, sadly. Still a great album by a great band, just with one big fat bruise on it.
