May 17 2023

I really like Time to Pretend but I ended up being disappointed by some of the tracks, although there are a few standout hits.

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Jun 19 2023

Without a doubt, one of the greatest of all time

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Jul 26 2023
Channel Orange by Frank Ocean
Aug 30 2023

Never listened to Frank Ocean before this; I was afraid that it wouldn't be as good as I was expecting, but it definitely was.

Pump by Aerosmith
Aug 31 2023

I mean it’s alright

25 by Adele
Dec 04 2023

Overall, I enjoyed listening to most of the songs but no particular track stood out to me. Adele is clearly very talented but it started to feel repetitive about halfway through.

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Dec 05 2023

Never listened to any ambient stuff like this before but I thought it was pretty good. I didn't like the vocals in some of the songs, especially earlier on in the album, though. I'd give it a 3.5 if I could.

Slanted And Enchanted by Pavement
Dec 06 2023

I just don’t think I’m a fan of this 90s indie rock stuff. The instrumentals were cool but I’m just not a fan of the singer or the way the vocals are processed. My boy needs auto tune and a new mix engineer.

The Colour Of Spring by Talk Talk
Dec 07 2023

I thought it was very good, but I don’t see myself coming back to any of the songs; I’m just not a huge fan of the genre

Want One by Rufus Wainwright
Dec 08 2023

This is lowkey goated I can't even lie. I enjoyed the theatrical/grand instrumentals; I liked how large some of the songs sounded. I'd give a 5 but I didn't like some songs in the 2nd half.

Dookie by Green Day
Dec 12 2023

this is NOT Dookie

Oar by Alexander 'Skip' Spence
Dec 13 2023

It was ok near the end but overall, I found it to be torture

C'est Chic by CHIC
Dec 15 2023

It's alright but I did find some tracks to be repetitive, either in lyrics or instrumentation.

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Dec 18 2023

I didn't pay a whole lot of attention while listening to this but I thought the guitars were interesting. I did find some tracks to drag on, though.

Cross by Justice
Dec 19 2023
The Gershwin Songbook by Ella Fitzgerald
Dec 20 2023

Ella Fitzgerald is like the greatest jazz singer of all time; this was enjoyable overall with smooth, nostalgic vibes.

Colour By Numbers by Culture Club
Dec 21 2023

Overall good but a lot of songs ended with repetition of a line for 1-2 minutes which made it annoying after a while.

The Poet by Bobby Womack
Dec 22 2023

3 tracks are missing on spotify which is a tragedy because this is solid

Moondance by Van Morrison
Dec 25 2023

A real solid folk-rock album.

GREY Area by Little Simz
Dec 28 2023

Some good production with enough variety to keep me engaged.

The Score by Fugees
Jan 01 2024

I don't listen to much of this 80s-90s hip-hop, but I always enjoy it when I do.

A Hard Day's Night by Beatles
Jan 02 2024

I am unable to discern why I have an underlying hatred for The Beatles, and yet, I will not be giving this a 1.

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre
Jan 05 2024

I'm not really into electronic stuff, but I'm trying to evolve beyond listening to just stuff with lyrics; I found this to be engaging. The early synth sounds were interesting to hear.

Melodrama by Lorde
Jan 09 2024

I enjoyed the production and most of the melodies but I'm not a huge fan of how she sings. Despite it only being prominent during the verses, I found it to be generally annoying after a while.

Slipknot by Slipknot
Jan 10 2024

I tried so hard to like this in any way possible. It's just pure noise.

Headquarters by The Monkees
Jan 18 2024

They’re like The Beatles but worse. All the songs seem similarly hollow to me. I thought it was bearable at the start but the album itself is long which made it seem to drag

Kid A by Radiohead
Feb 12 2024

A lot of variety throughout the album, with some tracks being outright haunting. I can see myself coming back to this one.

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
Feb 19 2024

Really not my thing. There was only 1 song I’d even consider listening to again.

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Feb 27 2024

I listened to this twice in a row and couldn’t even tell since all the songs sound the same
