Popular Reviews

Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones

2.5 never really got the hype around the stones. Sure they have some great hits, but I’ve never listened to a whole album so I assumed I was just missing something. This album didn’t do much to change my opinion, in fact it probably hurt more than helped. This album wasn’t bad but it was boring. 90% sounded the exact same throughout and there wasn’t a single song that stood out. How people can say they’re even in the same conversation as the Beatles still blows my mind

California by American Music Club

2 - ok but it was so inoffensive that it became boring

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane

4.5 - fantastic psychedelic album. Best songs were when grace slick was singing. Kinda lost itself towards the end. The last few songs started to sound like a generic blues man

Ys by Joanna Newsom

0.5 couldnt make it through but i gave it some credit for creativity. Her voice was just too grating

Black Monk Time by The Monks

1.5 not very good but understand it was influential
