May 18 2023

Divisive thoughts, hate the guy Who's speaking to Kurt between songs, love Nirvana's energy. Overall a good listen, some fantastic covers and unique versions of their own songs

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
May 19 2023

Its incredibly cheesy sounding, a relic of a bygone era, Making Whoppee is like a 50s version of WAP. Overall mid, can't imagine you'd too many choices of artist pre-Beatles tho

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
May 22 2023

Starts strong but a lot of the album gets lost in Fogertys incomprehensibly lyrics Proud Mary does a lot of heavy lifting for the 3rd star before Keep on Chooglin' tries to gaslight you into thinking you're listening to a real song

Liquid Swords by GZA
May 23 2023

Something special about sitting and have someone rhyme at you for an hour, some fantastic lines dotted throughout and i liked the Wu Tang callbacks Solidly decent, never reaches any particularly high quality but no dips either, Shadowboxin', I Gotcha Back are the standout hits for me Simpin' for Jesus at the end caught me off guard, definitely wasn't expecting what i think is black Israelite stuff? Full of irony and drops the album for me, poor closing

May 25 2023

Overall a poor showing IMO, i knew a handful of songs off it and it turns out theres a reason why, none of the rest are particularly great

Idlewild by Everything But The Girl
May 26 2023

Its fine, not my type of music at all but its consistently decent

Play by Moby
May 27 2023

Pretty poor offering, starts strong with Honey and Body rock is alright but most of the album is shite

Tommy by The Who
May 28 2023

Its fine, took me a few songs to realise it was an opera and l enjoyed it more after that but theres a lot of WTF

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
May 30 2023

Few good songs but nothing really stood out for me

The Nightfly by Donald Fagen
May 31 2023

Pretty solid throughout, good energy throughout doesn't live up to I.G.Y afterwards but no huge misses either

Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Jun 02 2023

Just solid rock throughout thought It'd be better overall but a lot of the songs were quite similar

Odelay by Beck
Jun 05 2023

Starts of well with Devils Haircut but the majority of the rest is crap, wtf is the buzzing during Novocaine about? Made it very hard to listen to Has probably ruined the Futurama episode for me too

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Jun 06 2023

Expected better, nothing fabulous

Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jun 07 2023

Generally pleasant, no weak spots

Debut by Björk
Jun 08 2023

Very surprised with how much i enjoyed this, never listened to Bjork before but its very solid with several bangers

Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
Jun 09 2023

Very solid, not much to say

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Jun 10 2023

Great voice, no real highs or lows for me, not really my thing

Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones
Jun 11 2023

I liked the range of instruments used throughout but its a bit of a clanging mess at points too

Younger Than Yesterday by The Byrds
Jun 12 2023

Interesting album, definitely the 2nd best of the 60s stuff I've gotten so far Its a bit odd at points with strange sounds in Thoughts and Words being hard to listen to but overall a very good listen

Jun 14 2023

Odd album, never lives up to the start after A Rush and a Push but theres no shite either, classic weird The Smiths for the most part

Technique by New Order
Jun 23 2023

Good record, please ant listen but never gets really good imo

Purple Rain by Prince
Jun 24 2023

Very good album, thought it was fine nothing major in the first half but the second is full of great hits

Low-Life by New Order
Jun 27 2023

Don't understand the appeal of New Order at all, painfully average

Channel Orange by Frank Ocean
Jul 28 2023

Its not bad just boring as fuck

Young Americans by David Bowie
Jul 31 2023

Strong start and great finish, Fame is an absolute bop.

Vivid by Living Colour
Sep 10 2023
Brothers by The Black Keys
Sep 12 2023
Arise by Sepultura
