Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Oct 06 2023

Proud Mary is a rightfully popular tune, the entire album has a coherent sound and makes you think if a simpler time

Metallica by Metallica
Oct 09 2023

The unforgiven is a great tune on this, I really appreciate the coherence of sound

At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band
Oct 10 2023

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Oct 12 2023

Not bad, I enjoy the vive but definitely need to be in the mood

Melodrama by Lorde
Oct 13 2023

Love this got some tracks up the top make you feel like a bad bitch

The Bends by Radiohead
Oct 16 2023

Not much to say here, it's radiohead

The Score by Fugees
Oct 17 2023

Really good listen, loved it

A Walk Across The Rooftops by The Blue Nile
Oct 19 2023

Absolutely fantastic, I never knew music like this had been around for so long

Back At The Chicken Shack by Jimmy Smith
Oct 24 2023

I like this, not my usual jam but a good change and definitely interesting to listen to and enjoy during a meal

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Oct 26 2023

Great songs and some iconic riffs

Bad Company by Bad Company
Oct 27 2023

Some classic tunes in here, the end of the album is nice how it slows down and mellows

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
Oct 30 2023

Lots of fun, I knew watermelon man previously and enjoyed when it came up. The bounce and groove of the tunes are heaps of fun. I encourage multiple listens to get the full experience of all the parts of each song

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Oct 31 2023

Some songs I've heard before but good to get their album context, a nice listen

Nov 01 2023

really boppy, I had a good time listening to this whiles studying for my las ever uni exam hopefully

Peggy Suicide by Julian Cope
Nov 02 2023

Pretty long but well varied, definitely going in a rotation, I likes some of the more angst tunes

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Nov 03 2023

Alright, I like this band and there were some songs I hadn't heard before

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Nov 06 2023

I had fun, the walking baselines and blues/jazz feel has had a huge influence on the music industry I like this but not sure it's for my regular listening

Hotel California by Eagles
Nov 08 2023

Wow.. the title track is obviously great but the emotion and cinematic feel to some of the later tracks is incredible, try and love again has been a great discovery for me from this

Modern Kosmology by Jane Weaver
Nov 09 2023

Absolutely ethereal, loved this genre and the mood it created

Don't Stand Me Down by Dexys Midnight Runners
Nov 10 2023

Good listen, enjoyed the songs and the way it flowed

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
Nov 14 2023

It was a good listen, jimi is a good guitarist

Nov 15 2023

I like this, it was calming and interesting, the sounds were refreshing and I enjoyed it. I feel like I've seen the cover of this album before but I don't know where, the Queen of 1959 is especially a great track from here

Traffic by Traffic
Nov 17 2023

This has surprised me, I definitely hear the influence this band's sound must've had on music in general, especially some of their guitar riffs

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Nov 20 2023

Loved son of a preacher man and don't forget about me, the album surprised me with its sound and I found parts of it quite enjoyable.

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Nov 21 2023

From opening to close this album changes, the start is frantic and faster but by the end O children whisks you off the planet and into another time, I'm a fan of how this sounds

Ghosteen by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Nov 22 2023

Much like the album art, this is a journey into a magical world, the flow between songs is blurred and inconsequential as the feeling of longing and adventure fill you. This listen cane directly after an earlier nick cave album and the soul of the sound remains, if not in a slightly different coat

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Nov 23 2023

Stevie wonder can sing, this feels way before it's time and is a soothing sounding album. I'm a big fan of his voice and the way it sounds. This album is good

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Nov 24 2023
Blur by Blur
Nov 28 2023
Black Metal by Venom
Nov 30 2023

Couldn't tell if this was a satirical metal album or it has just aged poorly, it was a fun listen but jeez sacrifice was a corny song especially when they spelled out the word

Trio by Dolly Parton
Dec 01 2023

I loved the vocals, a good listen, was listening while driving in traffic and it kept my head calm

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
Dec 04 2023

this album had some interesting sounds, it took me a few listens to grasp it and they were sim disconnected, I never got it all in one go. never let me down again is good but I found the album kind of blende together as it rolled through, not a bad thing, but difficult to differentiate before you all of a sudden realise that there is some ambient noise and no more lyrics

Spiderland by Slint
Dec 06 2023

This is my kind of music, the distorted riffs and brooding sound plus the vocals, I thoroughly like this

Welcome To The Pleasuredome by Frankie Goes To Hollywood
Dec 07 2023

Great album, some classic songs and a really fun listen, great to learn about the origin of these and hear them in context

Broken English by Marianne Faithfull
Dec 08 2023

Amazing... I do t know if this is soft rock or angry feminist rock but I'm a fan and I liked this

My Generation by The Who
Dec 12 2023

There are some good songs here but a few of them never really get going, I'm surprised at the time when this came out and how relevant some of them stayed.

Blood And Chocolate by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Dec 13 2023

Good as, I love this kind of music where each song has a story and listening to the lyrics is rewarding, will definitely be coming back to this album and artist

Roots by Sepultura
Dec 14 2023

First few songs are great, the heaviness is excellent, the riffage is solid and the screaming is high quality I listened through twice and it was good both times, this is a great album

Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear
Dec 15 2023

I think this was historically significant

Crosby, Stills & Nash by Crosby, Stills & Nash
Dec 18 2023

Good album, especially song with no words it was a fun listen

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Dec 19 2023

This was fun, although I couldn't understand the lyrics I could feel it

Dec 20 2023

Wow.. their voice, might be the first soul album I've actually enjoyed, I'm extremely impressed

Bug by Dinosaur Jr.
Dec 21 2023

This is music I love, the album is a good listen and encompasses the feeling of melancholy as it develops into pure noise by the end.

Brown Sugar by D'Angelo
Dec 22 2023

A great soul album, I've had a few like this so far in my run and the genre is growing on me, definitely a good sou dtracj to wrap christmas presents

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Dec 25 2023

This was good, really nice atmospheric tunes

Raw Power by The Stooges
Dec 27 2023

Nice driving beat and guitar, definitely a fun listen

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
Dec 28 2023

This album is good, the mix of rap and soul elements is appealing and chill good listen

The White Room by The KLF
Dec 29 2023

Feb 14 2024

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Feb 19 2024
Dookie by Green Day
Feb 20 2024

I like green day, some good songs here not much else to say except its four

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Feb 22 2024

Alice in chains are an amazing band, the sounds of this album are impeccable, great melancholy and grungy sound, however I like jar of flies more

Infected by The The
May 10 2024

not what I was expecting, definitely not toobad though tbh

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
May 14 2024

Blues is sometimes my thing, definitely felt like this was influential in the world of music, and a good listen, have to be in the right mood however

Rattlesnakes by Lloyd Cole And The Commotions
May 15 2024

Loved it the sound was interesting and some songs on there I really like

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival
May 16 2024

It's creedence, it has a special place in my heart due to nostalgia, used to hear these songs when I was you ger in the back of the car while my parents drove, long car rides sunny days, it makes me remember when it was better

Solid Air by John Martyn
May 17 2024

Definietly a chill vibe, the opener/title track is a pretty nice track, especially the bass throughout. could be from any period of time, quite timeless

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
May 20 2024

I'm so white, I like this music and the importance of it culturally, damn there's some song with a lot of sex noises

The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground
May 21 2024

I love this music, excellent ambience and sound. the way it feels like you're existing within a manufactured world created by the sounds of the music. the final track was interstingly a lot of noise, that got more musical and then not, could,ve been rated higher if not for that

Urban Hymns by The Verve
May 23 2024

A good album, definitely some hits in there but at the same time it's not ethereal enough

Foxbase Alpha by Saint Etienne
May 24 2024

Wow.... This hit me like a truck, talk about good timing. Had no idea bout any of this band and music, but I'm hooked. Transportative and stimulating in all the ways. I will be re-visiting this artist and album for sure

Harvest by Neil Young
May 27 2024

love this, impeccable

Live! by Fela Kuti
May 28 2024

Not too bad, good energy, though some of the songs sounded like they inspired videogame battle music

Hot Fuss by The Killers
May 30 2024

As a Fan of the killers I like this album, some of the ost iconic songs on here for me. I think the big songs from this are amazing and the gems that don't get as much notice are good too. hard to give it any less than 5

Jun 07 2024

Tik Tok ruined Free bird.... This song deserves all of the love it gets, but why did I never give it the time as I'd heard the solo over 50 million times. The entire journey through the song is incredible. I'm writing this as the anticipation builds to the solo and then when it hits. Screw tik tok why has it destroyed the soul of this song into a meme. On the rest of the album, its pretty good, I like guitar

Jun 10 2024

I Love REM, another nostalgia album, one of mum's favourite bands and this album has some true classics in the genre Another biased opinion but there's something about this sound that is just good. Man on the moon is an all timer.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Jun 11 2024
Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
Jun 12 2024

Iron Maiden by Iron Maiden
Jun 17 2024

I like the sound, good band and good guitars

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
Jun 19 2024

I find this music absolutely fascinating, ethereal and danceable, contemplative and reminiscent of a past you might've had. Night driving, thinking, dreaming living it's undeniably amazing

Loved it, can't explain why really but the cameo from thom and the fact you could tell it was a multi instrumentalist was fantastic, would love to see it live

Licensed To Ill by Beastie Boys
Jun 24 2024

mmm, lots of yell rapping, I get the influence but has corny vibes

Bad by Michael Jackson
Jun 25 2024

I think he made some iconic tracks

Jun 26 2024

groovy

Guero by Beck
Jul 05 2024
The Slim Shady LP by Eminem
Jul 08 2024

eminem, I like it but I don't love it, there are some iconic songs but I wouldn't recreationally listen

The Age Of The Understatement by The Last Shadow Puppets
Aug 14 2024

Couldn't stop hearing the arctic monkeys, definitely due to the lead singer, not bad though just didn't rock my world
