In Utero by Nirvana
Sep 22 2023

Pretty cool I liked the part where Kurt is sad and angsty

Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear
Sep 25 2023

Pretty good reggae stuff. Best song-Slavery times

Kollaps by Einstürzende Neubauten
Oct 02 2023

Is this here as some kinda mistake

Sincere by Mj Cole
Oct 06 2023

Kinda boring ngl

Live At Leeds by The Who
Oct 10 2023

Surprisingly great stuff. Not usually a big fan of live albums, but this one is just great start to end, and for most of it you can barley tell it's live. My favorite song was my generation

Scott 4 by Scott Walker
Oct 12 2023

He's got a nice voice I guess. Best song: get behind me

Dummy by Portishead
Oct 14 2023
KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Oct 16 2023
Timeless by Goldie
Oct 19 2023

Goldie be like: 'I am going to make an album that is so long' Like seriously, there's some genuinely good stuff in here, but Jesus CHRIST why did this have to be 110 minuets long, like holy shit. This is clearly an absolute trip of a producers ego and I won't be revisiting it any time soon lol.

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Oct 20 2023

Stevie Wonder is one of the most expressive and soothing singers I've ever heard, and it's honestly enough to carry a whole album. Not to say the songwriting isn't good, it is, but there's one thing I'm really coming here for, and that's the heavenly singing. That, and Superstition, which is a certified hood classic.

Young Americans by David Bowie
Oct 21 2023

i liek across the universe cover

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Oct 25 2023

Very good

Permission to Land by The Darkness
Oct 26 2023

Shamelessly indulgent of the hair metal cliches that ruled the roost back in the late eighties before grunge came along and kicked it's shit, right down to the, uh, provocative, let's say, cover. Little shocking that this came out in 2003. Little trashy, and it's no Appetite for Destruction, but it's really fun nonetheless, and just a really upbeat and enjoyable listen. My favorite track was Friday night.

A Northern Soul by The Verve
Oct 29 2023

Bitter sweet symphony guys roll lamest album ever, asked to leave list of 1001 albums you must listen to before you die

Third by Soft Machine
Oct 30 2023

I HATE PROG ROCK I DONT WANT TO LISTEN TO 18 MINUITE TRACKS ONE AFTER THE OTHER I DON'T WANT TO SIT THROUGH SEVEN MINUITES OF A GUITAR SOLO Actually this isn't bad tbh

Ramones by Ramones
Oct 31 2023

Hugely important album, and Britzkreig Bop is an all time banger, but once you've heard one track, you've kind of heard them all. Neat album closer, though. Did you know these guys sold more shirts then records?

Led Zeppelin II by Led Zeppelin
Nov 01 2023

led zepplin twoooooooo even more led then the first one

Tonight's The Night by Neil Young
Nov 02 2023

It was pretty decent I guess. I liked Tired Eyes

Nov 05 2023

Actually after a day I can't remember like a single thing about this album except the weirdly popular title track. I think there was a bit of narration at some point? Whatever

Swordfishtrombones by Tom Waits
Nov 06 2023

Once you get over the general weirdness of this album you'll realize how boring it is regardless. 2 stars because of the part where the guy burns his car

Be by Common
Nov 07 2023
The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground
Nov 11 2023

Cool album I liked the part on European Son where he had a heroin overdose while nailing that guitar solo, Andy Warhol really outdid himself on this album

Nov 14 2023

Alright this album kicks ass to hell and back and is hugely influential but holy shit why does that squealing noise on Don't believe the hype, like oh my god it's awful please make it fucking stop, like I can't stress enough how terrible this sound is Jesus Christ

Rings Around The World by Super Furry Animals
Nov 15 2023

Actually a pretty decent album but who tf thought to themselves 'oh yeah, you absolutely MUST listen to Rings around the world before you die, otherwise your life will have been incomplete', like I can't really understand what would bring someone to this logic

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Nov 16 2023

It was very cool of Elvis Presley to invent music so for that reason alone I have to give this album four stars

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Nov 18 2023

if shitposting existed in the 60's people would be calling this white girl music

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Nov 20 2023

She went back to black :(

The Real Thing by Faith No More
Nov 22 2023

Probably responsible for the existence of Limp Bizkit but pretty good otherwise

Boston by Boston
Nov 24 2023

This is the rock album equivalent of blowing your load in the first minute. Nothing these guys did afterwards got anyone to give a damn. Probably because of the shitty name. Album still goes hard though. The band may feel underwhelming in coming years (or in this quickie analogy, in the coming seconds) but it feels great in the moment

Horses by Patti Smith
Nov 26 2023
