The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy
Nov 02 2023

That was a long 57 minutes. I fondly remember the hits from this album when I was a kid. A few of the tracks were popular. Not really my thing nowadays. Wasn't really back then either.

Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz
Nov 04 2023

Great album. Very easy to listen to. Vocals were great. Music is great. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing, mellow listen.

Like A Prayer by Madonna
Nov 05 2023

Damn, man. Way better than I thought it would be. I was dreading having to listen to this. It wound up being pretty enjoyable. Some of the tracks I have never heard of we're quite good.

Sunday At The Village Vanguard by Bill Evans Trio
Nov 06 2023

I don't know much about Jazz. This seemed good. They played their instruments well. All the tracks kind of blur together into an hour long single track. Enjoyable, but not as good as the Getz/Gilberto album I listened to two days ago (for my taste).

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
Nov 07 2023

Very close to 5 stars. Damn good album! Nilsson had an incredible voice.

Kilimanjaro by The Teardrop Explodes
Nov 08 2023

Started off very strong, kind of lost some steam as the album continued on. The highs are very high.

Darkdancer by Les Rythmes Digitales
Nov 09 2023

This felt like a sick, cruel joke. I hate this album.

Fuzzy Logic by Super Furry Animals
Nov 10 2023

Good album. Really close to 4 stars. More like a 3.75 than a 3.

Garbage by Garbage
Nov 11 2023

Nearly an hour of listening to Shirley Manson sing... what did I do to deserve this? Actually, some tracks weren't that terrible. 2 stars.

I See A Darkness by Bonnie "Prince" Billy
Nov 12 2023

Solid listen. Nothing spectacular, but a solid 3 stars.

Daydream Nation by Sonic Youth
Nov 13 2023

Good album. A lot of great tracks. Musically, it fired on all cylinders. Nothing particularly memorable other than Track 1.

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Nov 14 2023

Clint Eastwood is a good song that's been consistently played for over 20 years. The rest of the tracks are horrific. Honestly, it doesn't even sound like the same artist. More like 1.5 stars, but I'll go with 2 for Clint Eastwood.

Moby Grape by Moby Grape
Nov 15 2023

Good album. Close to 4 stars. Realistically, probably is a 4 star album. I just wasn't focused enough when listening.

Raw Like Sushi by Neneh Cherry
Nov 16 2023

Eh. Whatever. Not terrible. Some catchy tunes.

Tarkus by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Nov 17 2023

Good album. I didn't even know E, L & P had music like this. I thought it was easy listening for some reason.

Boston by Boston
Nov 18 2023

All-Time banger after All-Time banger. A flawless classic rock album.

Roxy Music by Roxy Music
Nov 19 2023

Hell of an album. I have many strong familial connections to this album so I have to go at least 4 stars.

Nov 20 2023

Great album. A few big hits, a couple lesser known good tunes. One of the better post 2000 popular albums.

Homework by Daft Punk
Nov 21 2023

A solid debut album, but nothing particularly memorable. This was definitely a sign of things to come for DP, though.

Nov 22 2023

Good album. I prefer my boy Dwight Yoakam, but still good.

The Cars by The Cars
Nov 24 2023

All time great album. Huge hits. Great stuff.

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
Nov 25 2023

A modern masterpiece.

Pictures At An Exhibition by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Nov 26 2023

I read another review that said this album sounds like video game boss music. That's extremely accurate.

Power In Numbers by Jurassic 5
Nov 27 2023

Much better than I thought it would be. Not really my thing, but at least it was decent listen.

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Nov 28 2023

Timeless hits, beautiful ballads. This album is the 50s personified in less have 40 minutes.

Fromohio by fIREHOSE
Nov 29 2023

I liked more than half of this album a lot. Some of the tracks were odd, experimental, I guess. That's all that kept it from being 4 stars for me Solid 3.5.

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
Nov 30 2023

This album sucks. There's nothing redeeming about it. This is one of those albums you just have to power through.

Pink Flag by Wire
Dec 01 2023

All of the tracks kind of meld together into one long track and there isn't much in the way of lyrics, but it was still enjoyable. I can see why this is an influential album. 3.75 stars, close to 4.

Revolver by Beatles
Dec 02 2023

Perfect album.

Peter Gabriel by Peter Gabriel
Dec 03 2023

Here Comes the Flood is an incredible track.

Wild Gift by X
Dec 04 2023

I can't stand the vocalist voice.

Doolittle by Pixies
Dec 05 2023

Damn close to 5 stars. Probably 4.75.

Ingenue by k.d. lang
Dec 06 2023

I hate this album. I tried my damnedest to get through it.

I Should Coco by Supergrass
Dec 08 2023

Perfectly fine album. Closer to 3.5 stars. Alright is a great track

Imagine by John Lennon
Dec 09 2023

Some great songs, some forgettable ones.

High Violet by The National
Dec 10 2023

One of my favorite bands. Great album.

Brothers by The Black Keys
Dec 12 2023

Decent album. Liked it a lot more when it first came out.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Dec 15 2023

The band is very good, particularly the bass player.

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Dec 16 2023

Decent album. Always good listening to Paul McCartney.

Dig Me Out by Sleater-Kinney
Dec 18 2023

About half way through this album this singers voice was killing me.

Different Class by Pulp
Dec 19 2023

Very good. Hoping to get more stuff by Pulp.

Celebrity Skin by Hole
Dec 20 2023

Hard to separate the artist from the person they are. Even without that dilemma the music just isn't very good. Her voice grates on you for nearly an hour.

The Next Day by David Bowie
Dec 24 2023

Obviously not peak Bowie, but still pretty good stuff.

New Wave by The Auteurs
Dec 27 2023

Eh, it was ok. Nothing special.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Dec 28 2023

The least amount of money I would accept to listen to this album again is $1,000. It's that's bad.

16 Lovers Lane by The Go-Betweens
Jan 03 2024

Was a 3 star album until the final track. That song sucks.

Low by David Bowie
Jan 06 2024

Great Bowie album!

The Rising by Bruce Springsteen
Jan 07 2024

Pretty good stuff.

Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen
Jan 08 2024

Good album. I actually preferred The Rising. Album 2 of 3 straight The Boss albums.

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Jan 09 2024

The best Boss album for my money.

Metal Box by Public Image Ltd.
Jan 11 2024

So. FUCKING. Bad.

Pornography by The Cure
Jan 12 2024

Damn near 5 stars. So good.

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Jan 13 2024

No one does what Elliott Smith did better than him.

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
Jan 15 2024

Very enjoyable, but nothing revolutionary.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Jan 16 2024

Solid album. Singers voice weighs on you after awhile.

Dust by Screaming Trees
Jan 17 2024

Much better than expected.

Peter Gabriel 3 by Peter Gabriel
Jan 18 2024

One of my favorite artists. Easily one of his best albums.

The Poet by Bobby Womack
Jan 19 2024

Good album. The music was great. BM sounds like he's really feeling it.

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
Jan 20 2024

Not a music genre I enjoy, but I can't in good conscience give this album less than 3 stars. I get it.

Metallica by Metallica
Jan 21 2024

This album blows.

Two Dancers by Wild Beasts
Jan 24 2024

I mean it's OK

Closer by Joy Division
Jan 25 2024

Not a big JD fan.

Tidal by Fiona Apple
Jan 27 2024

Eh whatever.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Jan 29 2024

Perhaps the greatest album of all time. Flawless.

Rio by Duran Duran
Feb 01 2024

Not bad. Not my favorite band.

Cross by Justice
Feb 05 2024

Not bad.

S&M by Metallica
Feb 06 2024

Rough

Graceland by Paul Simon
Feb 07 2024

Great album.

Blur by Blur
Feb 08 2024

2 stars for Song 2. 0 stars for the rest of this rubbish.

Your Arsenal by Morrissey
Feb 09 2024

Great Morrissey album. Probably only behind Vauxhall & I.

Liquid Swords by GZA
Feb 12 2024

Certainly better than most of the current rap music I hear. I kind of get this.

Atomizer by Big Black
Feb 14 2024

Horrific.

Truth by Jeff Beck
Feb 15 2024

Eh.

Sister by Sonic Youth
Feb 16 2024

Eh

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Feb 21 2024

Great album. Doesn't get much better than Cat Stevens!

Stankonia by OutKast
Feb 23 2024

The Andre 3000 songs are good.

Kid A by Radiohead
Feb 26 2024
Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Feb 27 2024

Would have been better without the shitty vocals.

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
Feb 28 2024

Great David Bowie album. Really good and fast paced.

A Northern Soul by The Verve
Feb 29 2024

First half of the album is great, then it takes a bit of a nosedive.

Mama's Gun by Erykah Badu
Mar 01 2024

Listenable.

Dummy by Portishead
Mar 07 2024

Eh.

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Mar 11 2024

Green Onions 4.5 stars, rest of album 0 stars.

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Mar 12 2024

Not perfect, but damn close. DS & MK rule!

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69) by Ministry
Mar 13 2024

No way on Earth could I listen to this singer for a full album, but the music is great.

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Mar 14 2024

This album IS high school.

Tommy by The Who
Mar 15 2024
Play by Moby
