Popular Reviews

Hejira

Joni Mitchell

1/5

Never listened to Joni before! Ah, I am not enjoying this. At all. It’s like she’s just kinda rhythmically talking and there happens to be music playing on the background. Every song sounds exactly the same to me. Was this good in 1979?

I went through all the stages of grief listening to this. Is this from 1968 or 1668??

Crosby, Stills & Nash

2/5

Album cover looks like it could have been released yesterday by some hipster singer/songwriter band. First song is too long. I generally dislike songs over 5mins. I like the organ on Pre-Road Downs. So far I like this more for chill background music than something I’d really be listening closely to. I do have helplessly hoping in my library already tho! It’s a very lovely song. The infinity selections after this album have been good!

Since I Left You

The Avalanches

1/5

Hmm I think I really hate this I have to keep skipping ahead to preserve my sanity but each song is worse than the last.

Van Halen

3/5

Ah, nothing like some Van Halen in the morning. This is nice, it reminds me of riding around in my dad’s truck as a kid listening to his favorite radio station.

With The Beatles

Beatles

2/5

The Beatles…hmm Do people still like the Beatles? What was it like hearing them on the radio? People probably enjoyed it then more than I do now.

Aladdin Sane

David Bowie

3/5

Now this is what I’m talking about! Listen, this isn’t my favorite music in the world. But I just love and appreciate his exuberance. It’s a lot of queer energy and I can feel it. I’m giving this one a 3.5⭐️.

Automatic For The People

R.E.M.

3/5

I’m not sure I’ve ever really listened to REM before. At least not in any meaningful way. But I think I like this! It’s pretty sad boi style which isn't always appealing but I’m enjoying their pain.

Tidal

Fiona Apple

4/5

Okay Roxy you’re right, this shit slaps.

Hejira

Joni Mitchell

1/5

Pelican West

Haircut 100

2/5

This was..interesting. It sounded like music that might play during a daytime television game show. And that’s not necessarily a good thing. Vibes were weird. It wasn’t painful to listen to, but not really enjoyable either.

Bitte Orca

Dirty Projectors

4/5

This is very intriguing! I actually really like this first song and I might even add it into my library. This is weird but delightfully so. Each song is different and fun.

Is This It

The Strokes

4/5

Well I mean yeah. It’s awesome.

Bad

Michael Jackson

4/5

My god I love this album.

MTV Unplugged In New York

Is there anything wrong with this album? I think not.

Loretta Lynn

4/5

Absolute Queen.

Dolly Parton

1984

Van Halen

3/5

Not my favorite of the rock icons. I’d give it a 3.5 if I could.

Back In Black

AC/DC

4/5

I love this album. Full of hits. You shook me all night long is one of the best rock songs ever imo. I’m giving this one a 4 because for me this album is a little tedious to listen to all in one go. I feel like I need to take a break between songs. I enjoy it a lot, but it’s something I prefer to have in doses.

Doolittle

Pixies

Fuzzy

Grant Lee Buffalo

3/5

I feel a bit ambivalent towards this album as a whole, but I did enjoy a few songs. The lyrics were way more exciting than the actually sound of the album, which was a shame. If I could I’d give this 3.5 stars.
