Oct 21 2023

One of my alltime favourites... Kurt Cobain announces "The man who sold the world" with "I'll probably screw this up" and then delivers this amazing performance. Epic unplugged session.

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Oct 23 2023

I could get lost in this voice...

Nixon by Lambchop
Oct 30 2023

Easy to listen to, but hard to concentrate on... didn't really leave an impression

Goo by Sonic Youth
Nov 02 2023

Badly tuned strings and uninspired vocals. Got a headache halfway through.

The Sensual World by Kate Bush
Nov 03 2023

An exceptional artist who knows how to create an atmosphere. Sometimes she gets lost in the atmosphere and neglects the song, but overall very enjoyable listening.

A Short Album About Love by The Divine Comedy
Nov 05 2023

Always be yourself! Unless you can be Sinatra, then always be Sinatra. Or, perhaps, Freddy Mercury.

Pornography by The Cure
Nov 08 2023

A very dark Cure album

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Nov 10 2023
Tanto Tempo by Bebel Gilberto
Nov 13 2023

Chill background music, a voice like caramel

Guero by Beck
Nov 18 2023
Forever Changes by Love
Nov 22 2023

Had expected not to like it, but it was rather enjoyable for psychedelic (not my favourite genre).

Music From The Penguin Cafe by Penguin Cafe Orchestra
Nov 27 2023

I love the Penguin Cafe Orchestra, but this album was too avantgarde for me. Great cello, though!

Mask by Bauhaus
Nov 29 2023
Urban Hymns by The Verve
Dec 01 2023

Generic and boring britpop

Real Life by Magazine
Dec 03 2023

That was a pleasant surprise, full of unexpected detail. I'd never heard of Magazine, will probably listen to this album again.

Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
Dec 04 2023
Abbey Road by Beatles
Dec 09 2023

Well, it's Abbey Road. I really enjoyed listening (except for Maxwell's Silver Hammer). Is this really the best album ever? Maybe not, but surely it's the album most people can agree on to like.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Dec 17 2023

A few good songs, lots of disappointing rap. Under the Bridge saved it from 2 stars.

Dec 20 2023

I started listening to The Fall in the mid 80s. This album is the start of their journey, their sound is recognizable, but very raw. I like their later albums better, but still... it's The Fall!

Harvest by Neil Young
Dec 21 2023
Dec 23 2023

Well, this album certainly tried very hard to get my attention... I suppose there is a time and place for this kind of music - but in my opinion it is not on this list.

Viva Hate by Morrissey
Dec 24 2023

1 star extra for "Every day is like Sunday".

Slayed? by Slade
Dec 25 2023

Very mediocre.

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Jan 07 2024
Kenza by Khaled
Jan 11 2024
Jan 14 2024

One of the dominating albums of the 90s... I hadn't been listening to this for years, still know every song by heart.

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
Jan 15 2024

Repetitive and uninspired.

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park
Jan 16 2024

A few songs from the album are alright - the whole album was too much

Green by R.E.M.
Jan 24 2024
Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Jan 25 2024

Lovely voice. Chill music, but also a little boring.

Siembra by Willie Colón & Rubén Blades
Feb 02 2024
S&M by Metallica
Feb 16 2024
Felt Mountain by Goldfrapp
Mar 03 2024

Like Goldfinger, with weird sound effects
