I wish I was at that gig, the crowd sounds amazing. Great album. Favourite quote from the song Somebody Have Mercy "some body have mercy I wanna know what's wrong with me... It ain't that leukaemia that ain't it" - it was, he had leukaemia. Though he later died by gun shot through the heart.

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Jan 09 2024

It's like an album full of the second best songs from rock operas. It's fine, I do enjoy a bit of Meatloaf but you know... It's fine.

Green by R.E.M.
Jan 10 2024

Struggled to finish.

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Jan 11 2024
Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Jan 12 2024

One or two good songs, some unexpected N64 sounds tracks but overall uninteresting. Good back ground music.

Jan 15 2024

This album goes pretty hard. It's a great mix of hip-hop, rap and r'n'b. Typical of a good rap and hop hop album there's a lot of well used samples. It was cringe hearing Kanye rapping to the tune of Iron Man and it's a shame about the Rhiana song, Nikki Montage was surprisingly okay and the Chris Rock ending was fun.

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
Jan 16 2024

4 for me, i'd give it a 3.5 of I could. It's not as good as the original prison record he did and the bleeps where they try to cover bad language is really jarring.

Toys In The Attic by Aerosmith
Jan 22 2024

Very repetitive album that hasn't quite got enough catchy tunes. However, from Walk This Way to Sweet Emotion is a pretty good 3 song run. I had no idea they had a cover of 10inch Record of the band.

Blur by Blur
Jan 25 2024

A well crafted album that is well worth a listen. However, there aren't any good singles that stand out during its play. It's not their finest work as it leaves me wanting to listen to other better Blur albums but it does scratch an itch after a full play through.

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Jan 26 2024

If someone asked me what do wizards listen to at parties I'd show them this. O'Aqualung! Great concept album but maybe a little too repetitive in parts.

The Yes Album by Yes
Jan 29 2024

I appreciate it, but it's not for me.

The Poet by Bobby Womack
Feb 01 2024

Kind of a sexy album, but very samey all the way through. Guess it doesn't matter when your about to cum.

Ctrl by SZA
Feb 02 2024

Sleek lofi feel to the album, can't say I remember to much about it several hours later though...

Kid A by Radiohead
Feb 05 2024

A well crafted and produced album.. however, it's a bit on dreary side with no obvious standout singles. Nobody is rushing to put The National anthem on at and can't see people choosing tree fingers as a favourite to listen to on their own.

Feb 06 2024

Thoroughly enjoyable than Solomon with fantastic samples. That are reason fat boy slim became so popular.

Yeezus by Kanye West
Feb 08 2024
New Forms by Roni Size
Feb 09 2024

Fuuuuuuuckin dull. Each track sounds like it isn't finished and is just the same repetitive "bsst ta bsst ta tick tack tick ah tick ah tack" over and over again, with lack luster base and the shite synthesis usually found in a year 7 class room. 1 out of 5, would recommend to a teen with ADHD on speed, driving his lowered to its arse Corsa.

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Feb 12 2024

I always feel like Robert Smith (the singer) in the cure could be turned up a few decibels, or stand closer to the mic.

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Feb 13 2024

It's Led Zeppelin. It's 3 of the best best 4 albums.

The Slim Shady LP by Eminem
Feb 14 2024

One of my favourite Eminem albums. Well producer, hard-hitting and often bizarre lyrics and funny skits.

Under Construction by Missy Elliott
Feb 15 2024

I enjoyed this album more than I thought I would. It had some great collabs with Methodman and Jzee that I really enjoyed and I have added into my liked Spotify songs playlist.

E.V.O.L. by Sonic Youth
Feb 16 2024

Really dreary and borning album, not my cup of tea at all. But I guessed depressed expunks would be into it

Parachutes by Coldplay
Feb 20 2024

And soaring out of the slow lane and into the middle of the road it's Cold Play and its all mellow, I mean Yellow. Yeah, it's not the worst album but it's not the best. It's so inoffensive it's almost offensive and just remember "People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis, you can't trust people". Super Hanz *Also, Run by Snow Patrol is basically a slower version of Yellow.

Too Rye Ay by Dexys Midnight Runners
Feb 21 2024

Thoroughly joyful listen and album perfect for the summer and the spring

Feb 26 2024

I love this album. I've been working on a cocktail called egg in a pint Ooooooooh oohh it's just an egg in a pint it's an ancient Chinese secret that I picked up in Leeds Ooooooooh ooohh it's just an egg in a pint.

Bryter Layter by Nick Drake
Feb 27 2024

A peaceful anthem filled with optimism and hope.

Feb 28 2024

Awesome punk and grunge album with a great sound. Each track deserves to be played loud and could feature on a Tony Hawk video game. INTO THE DRINK!

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Mar 01 2024

Not a big Brucie fan, but I did enjoy the striped back feel of this album.

Mar 04 2024

This album has weirdly always felt nostalgic and I'm not sure why, but I love it.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Mar 08 2024
Midnight Ride by Paul Revere & The Raiders
Mar 13 2024

Great album of 60 pop but "Little Girl in The 4th Row" is noncy AF. Are all the other love songs about little girls too?

Maxinquaye by Tricky
Mar 14 2024

Great trip hop album, a nice departure from Massive attack for Tricky as it's deeper and darker.

...And Justice For All by Metallica
Mar 18 2024

This album demonstrates the skill of an excellent band and a drummer struggling to keep up. I found it actually quite a hard listen and even though sounds like "One" and "... Justice for all" deserve they're places in rock and or metal fame the rest of the album is a bit derivative and the drums are an annoying distraction with their miss beats and clumsy fills. Not lars finest moment and not Metallicas powerful sound they're known for.

Mar 21 2024

Awww my gawd! It's Korn! Bumts bcbsbbruskendhdbbehsjbsbehsiakkwieiuebebshsjsj Minha! *Cue the bagpipes*

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Mar 22 2024

Loved this album

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
Mar 25 2024

My favourite Deep Purple album. It's go hard or go home with a splash of organ and a slap of sexy

Blunderbuss by Jack White
Mar 26 2024

Jack White channeling his inner Robert Plant.

The Last Of The True Believers by Nanci Griffith
Mar 29 2024

An excellent county folk album. but it has a strange recording and I'm not sure if it's on purpose or an error my end, it sounds like it parts a warped record. The music is there but it fades and distorts slightly. But I did enjoy and I found it to be very chill

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Apr 02 2024

Beautiful album

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy
Apr 09 2024

Some cracking tracks but more misses than hits on this album

Garbage by Garbage
Apr 15 2024

Surprising that in the remaster they didn't make the vocals any easier to hear.

Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz
May 13 2024

Beautifully chill album that makes me wish I was on holidays

Diamond Life by Sade
May 14 2024

Excellent for making Açorda soup too

May 16 2024

It doesn't have all the hits you'd expect from a James Brown performance but still an absolute banger!

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Jul 16 2024

Bit disappointing to be honest
