Murmur by R.E.M.
Feb 21 2024

It was interesting

Ramones by Ramones
Feb 26 2024

same song but good song

Tommy by The Who
Feb 27 2024

it was given my attention sad the plot did not enthrall but that dumb long album sure plays a mean pinball

25 by Adele
Feb 28 2024

good voice good production good lyrics only a few snoozers imo

Playing With Fire by Spacemen 3
Feb 29 2024

I guess I appreciate this band/album because they influenced later shoegaze artists I like, as MBV toured with them. However this wasn’t really shoegaze. I hated the drone/trance feel. Songs would build up to nothing, lyrics were mostly spoken word and fairly corny, and the mixing was super weird.

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Mar 01 2024

So boring and uninteresting that it borders on being offensive, and I would call if offensive if it was able to elicit any kind of emotion out of me.

So by Peter Gabriel
Mar 04 2024

some decent 80s pop. pacing is weird

Sign 'O' The Times by Prince
Mar 05 2024

From what I’ve heard it’s my favorite Prince album

Night Life by Ray Price
Mar 06 2024

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Mar 11 2024

Heroes by David Bowie
Mar 12 2024

OK Computer by Radiohead
Mar 19 2024

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
Mar 20 2024

Ocean Rain by Echo And The Bunnymen
Mar 22 2024

pretty good but not for me

My Generation by The Who
Mar 25 2024

ye this good. better than tommy

Goo by Sonic Youth
Mar 27 2024

pretty rough sounding. i liked the first few

Oar by Alexander 'Skip' Spence
Mar 28 2024

liked the sound sorta but overall meh

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Apr 01 2024

it is what it says it is

Apr 02 2024

upon relisten im not super crazy about it but the hits are so good im still giving it a 4

Larks' Tongues In Aspic by King Crimson
Apr 03 2024

I didn’t expect to like this at all. I saw the 13 minute instrumental title track and thought oh no. But the use of dynamics and clean transitions to different sections make the lengthy track work for me. When that soft/somber section toward the end hit, I imagined the track as a battle, and at first I thought the heroes had won with that section towards the end mourning those who died. But, as the album goes on, the sinister sounding synths, gritty bass lines, and anthemic guitar riffs create a tension that make me think the bad guys won, and the rest of the album takes place in the aftermath of that. I think there’s a lot of parallels to Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon here with the psychedelic rock sounds mixed in with prog rock, and specifically the song Easy Money reminds me of Floyd’s Money.

Veckatimest by Grizzly Bear
Apr 05 2024

I feel like they can make music I really like. It’s all there. Just assembled in a way I dont prefer.

The Cars by The Cars
Apr 08 2024

if i was around, this would have been my favorite band probably

Doolittle by Pixies
Apr 09 2024

i enjoyed the dissonance

Fishscale by Ghostface Killah
Apr 10 2024

everything that glitters ain’t fishscale

Moby Grape by Moby Grape
Apr 12 2024

I don’t think Spotify has the right version of this. But what is there is pretty decent. I’ll have to find the original release though.

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
Apr 15 2024

I enjoyed parts of songs. The parts I liked were usually Richie Blackmore guitar sections.

Illmatic by Nas
Apr 17 2024

perfect flows, rhyme schemes, lyrics, beats, features.

Blackstar by David Bowie
Apr 22 2024

I thought it was really good. Bowie with stage 4 liver cancer wondering where Monday went. He died on a Sunday too. Yeah idk super emotional and impactful

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Apr 23 2024

I really liked Michael’s voice and Danger Mouse’s production. Some songs were a little slow for me

Dub Housing by Pere Ubu
Apr 24 2024

It was technically music yeah. Not a big post punk kinda person

You Are The Quarry by Morrissey
Apr 25 2024

Ok I can’t deny the instrumentals and melodies and songs themselves are quality. But I can’t get over Morrisseys self righteous whiny ass liberal ass attitude all over this album. I haaaaate most of the lyrics on here.

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Apr 26 2024

I can’t believe I slept on this. I think I still prefer Midnight Marauders, but holy shit this is undeniably amazing.

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Apr 29 2024

That was beautiful. Her voice control is incredible.

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
May 01 2024

the album ended and it started playing a song i had already heard and i didn’t realize until it played the second song i had already heard

american dream by LCD Soundsystem
May 02 2024

Closer to a 4 than a 3. It’s not his best work, but it sure is charming and groovy!

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
May 06 2024

I enjoyed the beats and production aspect of it. But its not something I’d come back to

Another Green World by Brian Eno
May 08 2024

i mean he’s worldbuilding. its not a world i want to live in. but he is doing it.

Low by David Bowie
May 10 2024

twas ok but i liked the first half a lot more

Cloud Nine by The Temptations
May 13 2024

really good stuff

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
May 14 2024

My experience listening to this was “Oh, Steely Dan made that song? wow” “Oh what? Steely Dan made this song? nice”

May 15 2024

Minecraft - Volume Alpha by C418 is really fantastic ambient music. Highlights for me include Minecraft, Wet Hands, Sweden, Cat, with Mice On Venus being the standout track. Can definitely be enjoyed outside the context of Minecraft. Surely Remain In Light will be on here. We can give Eno his flowers then.

Gentlemen by The Afghan Whigs
May 16 2024

twas ok

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
May 21 2024

the gator rocks in less than 60 seconds

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
May 22 2024

Pretty mid overall

Brothers by The Black Keys
May 23 2024

couple hits but the sound has aged a bit for me

Tom Tom Club by Tom Tom Club
May 24 2024

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
May 28 2024
Solid Air by John Martyn
May 30 2024

Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield
May 31 2024

its too much going on for background music and theres no way im going back to this for any other reason. oh yeah let me go listen to that passage i like from 17:40-18:25 in tubular bells part 1. yeah let me announce ever instrument thats coming in like they’re walking across the stage graduating. obviously this guy is very talented just wtf 😂

Jun 03 2024

sorry for ruining the perfect score. i rly only like a few from here, and the rest im meh on.

Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves
Jun 05 2024

So I recognize it’s like fantastically produced really good pop country music. I’m just not in love with it. Her 2024 release I liked a bit more. Adele clears

Protection by Massive Attack
Jun 06 2024

better than the other one

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Jun 10 2024

Document by R.E.M.
Jun 11 2024

great album fun to sing along to

Van Halen by Van Halen
Jun 24 2024

under-hated album

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Jun 25 2024

Liked it more than I thought. The song “Changes” is the theme song of the cartoon “Big Mouth”. I never knew it was by Black Sabbath. Crazy juxtaposition there lmao
