Django Django

4/5

Diamond Life

Sade

3/5

Feels like a 3*; some good tunes and a good vibe but nothing outstanding.

Back To Black

Amy Winehouse

3/5

I'm not quite sure why people rave about this album. It seems OK to me and is perfectly listenable, but nothing exceptional. Solid 3* but not worth 4*. Rehab is OK and Back to Black is a good song.

Cheap Thrills

Big Brother & The Holding Company

3/5

Nice enough background rock 'n' roll, but unremarkable. Another 3*, I think.

Pink Flag

Wire

2/5

I think this was quite forgettable. Not bad, but I'm going to give it 2* - I think I feel similarly to underwhelmed as with the PJ Harvey album.

The Chronic

Dr. Dre

4/5

I quite like it. Wavering between 3* and 4* three tracks in. I'm giving it a 4*, but a low 4*.

The xx

3/5

It's not bad, but is sucking the energy out of me to a certain extent. It has some merit, not just dreary, but still only a 3*, I think, and a low one.

Bright Flight

Silver Jews

3/5

A bit more interesting, but not amazing. Solid 3*.

GREY Area

Little Simz

3/5

Maybe I'm just in the wrong mood, but I'm not feeling it. Another 3*. Some good tracks, though - maybe this is a harsh rating.

american dream

LCD Soundsystem

3/5

Quite enjoyable, but no tracks to love straight away, so 3*.

Amnesiac

Radiohead

4/5

I've never listened to this as an album before (as opposed to individual songs off it). It's great! Still only 4* - more an 8/10 than a 9/10.

Blood, Sweat & Tears

3/5

It was pleasant enough, but unremarkable.

Aladdin Sane

David Bowie

3/5

Never got through this because it always felt like a bit of a chore, so I don't think I found it amazing. Giving it 3* and moving on.

Disraeli Gears

Cream

3/5

It wasn't bad, but not amazing - maybe just didn't get me in the right mood. I'll give it 3*, but it could have been 4* on another day.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik

Red Hot Chili Peppers

5/5

I know and love this album. 5*.

Arrival

ABBA

1/5

I can't face listening to this.

Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)

Wu-Tang Clan

4/5

This was fun!

Tonight's The Night

Neil Young

3/5

I can't remember listening to this now. I think there were some nice songs but it wasn't amazing.

Tidal

Fiona Apple

4/5

This was a great discovery. There's a risk of over-reacting after a run of slightly disappointing albums, and from the joy of discovering something new, so I'll only give it 4* to be safe.

Penance Soiree

The Icarus Line

1/5

I couldn't face listening to this. Tried a couple of tracks and it's just noise for noise's sake.

Aftermath

The Rolling Stones

2/5

It was OK, but a bit boring except for the first track.
