Strange Cargo III by William Orbit
Oct 30 2023

I couldn’t find it on Apple Music , so I’m saying no to this first one call me a poser

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
Oct 31 2023

Dug the hell out of this. Like eagles but groovier, jazzier and funkier.

GREY Area by Little Simz
Nov 02 2023

Simz is goated

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five

Reggatta De Blanc by The Police
Nov 08 2023

this album listening experience sucked - felt like torture lowkey

Highly Evolved by The Vines
Dec 04 2023

I liked it , needed some aughts rock yesterday. Alternates between garage rock and beatlesque soft rock, quite fun although I typically don’t go for Australian music

Dec 05 2023

Big boi’s was a fun af listen that I think I will revisit. Andre 3000’s I appreciated more than I liked although there were ofc some bangers on there

Nevermind by Nirvana
Dec 06 2023

Big boi’s was a fun af listen that I think I will revisit. Andre 3000’s I appreciated more than I liked although there were ofc some bangers on there

Vivid by Living Colour

Histoire De Melody Nelson by Serge Gainsbourg
Dec 10 2023

Wow i really liked this. The strings were magnificent - I felt as though I were transported to another era, Paris in the 60s, traipsing around the Latin quarter w my bohemian friends discussing the revolution, love, and the modern novel. Classy album, sometimes there would be some weird sounds in the middle of songs that I was not a fan of.

Sound of Silver by LCD Soundsystem
Dec 14 2023

Amazing iconic stellar legendary

Alien Lanes by Guided By Voices
Jan 24 2024

This album dragged on for me. I loved the soft shoegaze guitars, but found the vocals quite grating. Not something I would listen to on my own. But there are a couple tracks here and there that rock, like ‘alright’ and ‘game of pricks’. Many of the tracks’ Melodies reminded me of Beatles tunes.

The Contino Sessions by Death In Vegas
Jan 26 2024

Really loved this record. Love the electric soundscapes composed to glitches, loops, and shreds. I really felt like this one took me on a journey.

Disintegration by The Cure
Jan 27 2024

I mean goddamn… I had listened to this album before and thought it was really good, but listening again I realize just how truly epic this thing is. Such an amazing sonic experience. It’s like darkness & pop & melodrama & and searing heights of emotion & cool musical textures.

Screamadelica by Primal Scream
Jan 29 2024

Some tracks on here that were alright, but mainly was bored by this record. Didn’t dig the mash up of blues rock and tame acid house.

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths
Feb 01 2024

Did not f w this at all. I like some of the tracks on here like well I wonder, but most of it is just grating instrumentals and annoying vocals from morrisey. Wish this had been another smiths albums.

Heroes by David Bowie
Feb 02 2024

First time listening to heroes - now possibly my favorite of bowie’s albums. So much to love here, from the glitch-possessed guitar solo in the opening track, that awesome droning melody in the title track, and the ambient dreamscape of the second half. I really really loved this record, what an artist!!!

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Feb 03 2024

Gna be listening to this one againx2 for a while after.

Dookie by Green Day
Feb 06 2024
Feast of Wire by Calexico
Feb 07 2024

Some very cool mix of genres. Running late to work I felt like I was a desperado -

Hejira by Joni Mitchell
Feb 09 2024

Love the landscapes that this album conjures up, I love that bass that runs through the album like a river. Love how fully realized of an album this is. I didn’t always love the lyrics though.

Be by Common
Feb 13 2024

Can’t believe I hadn’t heard this before! Dug the entire production of the thing, common’s lyricism, and the message of a lot of these tracks.

Feb 15 2024

Not gna rate this one cuz it’s out of my wheelhouse - really not my type of music. Didn’t really fuck with it, but I can see how other blokes might. Big shrug from me - Boring asf

Feb 17 2024

One of my favorite albums ever. Listening to this album yesterday was a good reminder that there’s a reason why dylan is considered the best songwriter ever, and it’s not even close tbh. So many bangers on here; it’s alright ma (“it’s life and life only”), baby blue (“strike another match go start anew”), Maggie’s farm, bob Dylan’s 115th blues, and of course, mr tambourine man (“to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free/ silhouetted by the sea/ circled by the circus sands / with all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves / let me forget about today until tomorrow” - I mean cmon, that’s some of the most beautiful lyrics I’ve ever heard) & I could go on. Must’ve been crazy to listen to this when it first dropped. I’m not such a fan of gates of Eden, but still a great song admittedly. Still think I like highway 61 revisited or time out of mind more, but this is definitely in top 5 Dylan albums for me.

Daydream Nation by Sonic Youth
Feb 21 2024

I loved this album. The discordant guitars really speak to my soul somehow, I love how noisy yet beautiful it is. Fave tracks: the sprawl, Eric’s trip, & candle. These guys rule. Only reason why four stars is because I think it’s a bit long for my taste.

Younger Than Yesterday by The Byrds
Feb 22 2024

Appreciated some of the psychedelic touches, but mainly a pretty flat album

Roots by Sepultura
Feb 23 2024

Although I’m not a fan of this kind of metal with the screaming, harsh voices, it was cool to hear some Brazilian-Caribbean rhythms infused into the metal genre. Also the instrumentals honestly rock

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Feb 28 2024

Good god i love Jimi Hendrix. For some reasons didn’t think I liked this album as much as electric ladyland, but damn!!!! This is an absolute classic! So many bangers on here. I love the fuzzy distortion of his guitar and the masterly control he has over it. His lyricism is also wonderful especially on songs like “may this be love” and “the wind cries Mary”. I love the sci fi, jazz/electric blues fusion jimi achieves on this - standout tracks are love or confusion, remember, fire, and i don’t live today. Also, the drumming by Mitch mitchell is so fkn good.

She's So Unusual by Cyndi Lauper
Mar 05 2024

Great songs on here. Really loved when you were mine, the opening track, and ofc girls just wanna

Konnichiwa by Skepta
Mar 06 2024

Excellent production and Skepta can really rap - don’t know why I can’t get totally behind grime though

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Mar 12 2024

A good funky throwback - sex machine really rips

Sulk by The Associates
Mar 13 2024

God awful album. I liked gloomy Sunday but the rest was torturous to listen to

Mar 15 2024

I think I like other Wilco albums I’ve heard more than this, but it’s still great

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Mar 17 2024

Last song was epic

En-Tact by The Shamen
Mar 18 2024
I Should Coco by Supergrass
Mar 19 2024

Just some great riffs - really surprised by how much I liked this record. Rock n roll is so back baby

Mar 20 2024

A lot of cool concepts in this and interesting sounds, but ultimately not for me.

Arrival by ABBA
Mar 21 2024

So many goated songs on here - but “when I kissed the teacher” and “happy hawaii” (seriously wtf was that song) keep it from being a 5. But most of these songs are very special, and i really loved the title track, which I hadn’t heard before.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Apr 02 2024

Damn this really is one of the greatest albums of all time. The last recorded Beatles album, where Paul convinced the band to record an album like they did in the old days, with George Martin at the wheel. Culminates in some of the best songs in their whole catalog, assembled in a cohesive and flowing way. My favorites on this are “something”, “oh darling”, and the whole last suite. The only song that I’m kind of skeptical of is Maxwell, but even that is produced very nicely and fits the vibe of the album. Might be my favorite album of theirs. Throwback to when I had a poster of abbey road in hs

New York Dolls by New York Dolls
Apr 03 2024

Cool album, cool dudes, and I’m very glad I listened to it. But it did feel a little bit like second-rate Stones to me.

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Apr 09 2024

Legendary artist, one of my favorites to ever do it. This was the last recorded album of hers before she died, and on the song “Buried Alive in the Blues” there’s no vocal track. My favorites on here include “A woman left lonely” and “get it while you can”. Her rendition of “me and Bobby mcgee” is one of the all time great rock n roll songs.

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan
Apr 11 2024

Pretty great album. Am I becoming a steely Dan fan???

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Apr 13 2024

I think this album is pretty good, but not that a lot of the songs are kind of repetitive and boring to me. Lou reed needed John Cale what can I say

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Apr 19 2024

Love this album but maybe it’s a bit long imo. Maybe that’s what makes it legendary. Faves: “stuck inside of mobile” & “visions of Johanna”

Dummy by Portishead
Apr 20 2024
Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Apr 25 2024

An extremely epic album. I’m going to have this one on repeat for a while. Fave tracks are “black mountain side” and “I can’t quit you baby”

American Gothic by David Ackles
May 01 2024

Wanted to like this but just found it annoying and kind of grating to listen to
