Signing Off by UB40
Nov 03 2023

i love two tone and ska but never listened to this record, crazy how different this is from their later hits highlights for me - a killer randy newman cover and the 13 min song bitching out maggie thatcher

Duck Rock by Malcolm McLaren
Nov 05 2023

malcolm mclaren is a poseur

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
Nov 06 2023
Scissor Sisters by Scissor Sisters
Nov 09 2023

really fun record w a cool mix of styles turning comfortably numb into a disco banger is a feat of science

Shake Your Money Maker by The Black Crowes
Nov 10 2023

wild that this came out in the 90s when they’re so clearly trying to sonically emulate the 60s/70s rock dudes that being said many bangers and i f w it

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Nov 14 2023

an all time classic for me darkly manic bangers for the ages

Let England Shake by PJ Harvey
Nov 16 2023

finally some polly jean !!! i’m an unabashed stan i love this album - beautiful intense lyricism and interesting instrumentation i think PJ is one of the coolest songwriters out there, it’s remarkable to take a rly alienating concept and make something compelling and accessible like this i also think it’s exciting that later in her career she did something that was such a departure from her earlier work and still made an album that is true to her identity as an artist i love you polly 😍😍😍😍

My Generation by The Who
Nov 22 2023

lots of filler but some bops, grew up w this record around a lot so will give it some nostalgia points

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
Nov 23 2023

a mixed bag ! some beautiful songs and then also the song coconut is on it

Time (The Revelator) by Gillian Welch
Nov 26 2023

a beautiful perfect album david rawlings guitar is transcendent!!

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
Jan 17 2024

jack white at his most obnoxious - unlike white blood cells no bangers to be found + i felt some of the ~instrumentation experimentation~ to be tedious

Whatever by Aimee Mann
Jan 19 2024

i think aimee is rly cool but the songwriting on this record didn’t hit for me! i like some of her other songs but these felt a bit basic

Harvest by Neil Young
Jan 21 2024
Liquid Swords by GZA
Jan 23 2024

i love this record !! fun inventive production, some of the best wutang member verses in the books

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Jan 30 2024

honest and true bangers

Heroes by David Bowie
Feb 02 2024

amazing record!! i loved the ambient tracks

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Feb 03 2024

radiohead’s most beautiful record ! lovely arrangements by jonny on reckoner

Dookie by Green Day
Feb 06 2024

when i heard dookie as a 6 year old it changed my brain, as is true for every san diego proto dirtbag. this album has some really catchy songs that i still stand by and i do think it’s green day’s peak, it’s raw and sometimes not in a good way

Feast of Wire by Calexico
Feb 07 2024

liked the vibes of this album a lot, cool instrumentation and fun genre mixing

Hejira by Joni Mitchell
Feb 09 2024

this is THE album to hear before you die like i want Hejira to be what i am hearing as my soul shuffles off this mortal coil beautiful hypnotic melodies & swirling sprawled lyricism jaco’s harmonics also had me Weak obligatory : furry sings the blues? you mean twin fantasy?

Be by Common
Feb 13 2024

really awesome record , i love the production and the lyricism

Bongo Rock by Incredible Bongo Band
Feb 16 2024

a bongo-forward cover album … what are we doing here? it was fine.. mad at the guy who made this list rn

Feb 17 2024

one of his masterpieces ! as always in awe of dylan’s ability to ground the abstract in his lyricism

Daydream Nation by Sonic Youth
Feb 21 2024

this album fucking rocks!!!! a new all timer for me .. so many amazing guitar riffs can feel an obsession mounting

The Doors by The Doors
Feb 27 2024

not for me! found the lyrics grating and juvenile (cringe rhyming, making me reconsidering my songwriting) + the melodies uninteresting the guitar solos also felt very rudimentary and not melodic like any teen could rip em there are a couple good songs though (this is the end is an awesome song)

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Feb 28 2024

totally mind blowing record to me, incredible songwriting that perfectly balances pop accessibility with remarkable sublime guitar playing

Sulk by The Associates
Mar 13 2024

so annoyinggg

69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields
Mar 14 2024

can’t say i listened to the whole thing but there are so many catchy little tunes that remind me of being a 13 yr old with a ukulele twee will always be famous

Mar 15 2024

i love this album & the soundscapes, i think it’s nicely cohesive and feels like an intentionally crafted experience but i think some of the songwriting is a little boring

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Mar 16 2024

beautiful, sorrowful and if we’re being honest often catchy!! obviously i love his lyricism, a lot of these songs feel like odes or elegies

I Should Coco by Supergrass
Mar 19 2024

really fun and whimsical !!

Arrival by ABBA
Mar 21 2024

unbelievable bop ratio on this record

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Apr 19 2024

some of the dylanest dylan going, front half are some of the best songs ever and back half are pretty good

Dummy by Portishead
Apr 20 2024

i love this album!! trip hop is so sexy and cool

S&M by Metallica
Apr 23 2024

i didn’t finish it but it wasn’t doing it for me! feels like something that could be cool but just ended up cheesy a lesson in more isn’t always better
