If I have to listen to another record like this I swear to god

Don't need to relisten, ceritifed hood classic. Every song after Life on Mars could be Bowie farting into a microphone and it's still a Top 50 all time record

One of the best electronic albums of all time, it’s immaculate

All Ratings

Hotel California

Eagles

1/5

Holy mother of god that sucked. Try and Love Again was the closest to some level of quality and soul, rest of the album felt like trying to take a fly out of a soup with tweezers

Ready To Die

The Notorious B.I.G.

4/5

It’s audacious, mean, full of skeletons. Not massive on a lot of the skits but they paint a tapestry of a violent upbringing in 80’s New York. It’s a classic for a reason, ahead of its time and for its time simultaneously.

Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots

The Flaming Lips

3/5

I used to adore this album in my early 20’s and as time’s gone on, that love is still there however slightly diminished. The production is spunky and bright, the performances are snappy and assured, but something about the end product leaves me a little dry and I can’t put my finger on it. Still an album that should be considered essential listening to any music fan.

Virgin Suicides

Air

2/5

This did nothing for me. Nice to listen to but I’ve never been a massive Air fan and this one didn’t sway me.

Violent Femmes

2/5

A little bubblegum for my liking. Definitely fits in it’s own microcosm of 80’s indie pop but man does this record drag for me

Aladdin Sane

David Bowie

3/5

Not his best, but a welcome addition to a catalogue full of great 70’s pop music. Doesn’t quite have the identity of Ziggy or the Berlin trilogy

Live At The Regal

B.B. King

3/5

Really does feel like a relic from a different time. Never been a huge blues guy but there is something truly comfy about this record.

Tusk

Fleetwood Mac

3/5

I’m torn on this one. I would say it genuinely took me by surprise on some tracks with sweeping but understated arrangements like Sara, unbelievably gorgeous. The very next track is Lindsey Buckingham yelping like a Pomeranian over a bad power pop riff. When it’s good, it’s some of the best music of 79. When it’s not, it’s not.

Pearl

Janis Joplin

2/5

Ehhhh I don’t really know what to say about this one. I feel like a lot of 70’s music transcends it’s era and time and has a universal message that still really sticks the landing (something like Electric Warrior or Ege Bamyasi) but this one never left 1971. Or even the 60’s for that matter.

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

4/5

I’m realizing I should be less critical to some degree. This album is quite good, great guitar work, definitely drags at some points. Hometown treasure of an artist for me, go jets

Autobahn

Kraftwerk

5/5

One of the best electronic albums of all time, it’s immaculate

Time (The Revelator)

Gillian Welch

4/5

I listened to this album a few months ago and it didn’t really stick with me. This time around, really enjoyed it. Earnest songwriting, straight forward instrumentation, real vulnerability on display.

Green Onions

Booker T. & The MG's

2/5

On one hand, the musicianship is top notch and the idea behind the main theme is great. On the other, at a brief 35 minutes, it really loses steam halfway through when it shouldn't. Used it's best idea first and it shows.

Pet Sounds

The Beach Boys

5/5

It’s perfect

Cross

Justice

4/5

BAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGEEEEEERRRRRSSSSS

Want One

Rufus Wainwright

3/5

Not a record for me, but he’s clearly quite talented and knows how to arrange a god darn song

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

1/5

Is it better than Hotel California? Yes. Is it as good as Green Onions? No. Will I ever listen to it again? Not deliberately.

Stephen Stills

4/5

Liked it more than I thought I would, excellent guitar work and thoughtful songwriting

Giant Steps

The Boo Radleys

3/5

Didn’t hit when I listened to it a decade ago, still isn’t now. I still think it’s good, just not amazing

Can't Buy A Thrill

Steely Dan

5/5

God I love Steely Dan. Sardonic lyrics, incredible playing, just masterful

Tago Mago

Can

4/5

It's phenomenal. Only criticism, and this isn't on the part of the record, I don't know if this is a record to constantly revisit, and misses the staying power of something like Pet Sounds.

The Bends

Radiohead

2/5

Used to listen to this a bunch when I was younger and remember quite liking it. This time I'm not so sure... something about it dragged, something about felt whiny in a way it hadn't previously. I do think it's a good record, just not for me at this point in my life.

Ogden's Nut Gone Flake

Small Faces

4/5

How have I never heard of this before, Kevin Parker eat your heart out

The Suburbs

Arcade Fire

3/5

It’s a good record, not much else to say honestly

Heroes to Zeros

The Beta Band

3/5

Liked it more than I was expecting, post Britpop sound with some decent songwriting

New Gold Dream (81/82/83/84)

Simple Minds

2/5

I wanted to like this so much more than I did. There’s some great moments, specifically synth tones, but there’s something sleepy in the songwriting that pulls me out of it.

Leftism

Leftfield

3/5

This would be EXTREMELY fun live, idk how it translates to an album, but I see the appeal

Safe As Milk

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band

5/5

Blues rocks master work, one of the best

The xx

3/5

Time hasn’t been immensely generous to this record for me, but in a cool August evening in 2012, it’s home

Back At The Chicken Shack

Jimmy Smith

3/5

Great players, great album art, but wanted more from this one

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Elton John

4/5

It’s a classic for a reason, although suffers a bit from double LP syndrome

Imperial Bedroom

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

2/5

Production is a little too muddy for the songs to really shine

Phrenology

The Roots

4/5

A raucous, emphatic statement that should be seen as one of the best of their catalogue

Sweet Baby James

James Taylor

3/5

maybe I gotta stop listening to msuic on spotify

Oracular Spectacular

MGMT

3/5

Clearly some level of songwriting prowess on display, some great moments, absolutely REEKS of high school for me

Highly Evolved

The Vines

2/5

Totally ehh on it

Axis: Bold As Love

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

A Little Deeper

Ms. Dynamite

2/5

Exodus

Bob Marley & The Wailers

3/5

Is it clearly a revolutionary reggae record? Yes. Is it as good as Funky Kingston? No.

The Joshua Tree

3/5

oh boy here's what I absolutely will say after years of retrying this album and hating it: the drum sound on this album is MY SHIT. The acoustics and timbre of the the snare are incredible. The manipulative songwriting and watery guitars do nothing for me

Let England Shake

PJ Harvey

4/5

Elegant and provocative

American IV: The Man Comes Around

Johnny Cash

2/5

Cheap Thrills

Big Brother & The Holding Company

3/5

I already listened to this one wtf

BEYONCÉ

Beyoncé

4/5

Sexy, sensible, slay queen energy

A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Coldplay

3/5

Parachutes is better, also this band is overhated

Live At The Witch Trials

The Fall

4/5

Imagine if Yard Act had a set of testicles and wasn't a product to be marketed

Live At The Star Club, Hamburg

Jerry Lee Lewis

3/5

For a pedophile, pretty rockin and hip record dude

The Dark Side Of The Moon

Pink Floyd

5/5

Oh Jesus like I need to relisten. Not my favourite Floyd record, not in my Top 50 of all time, arguably overrated, BUT I would be completely remiss to say that isn’t one of the most rewarding album experiences you can have. Get it on vinyl, pop a tab of acid, close your eyes, and let those clocks before Time scare the ever loving shit out of you.

Oxygène

Jean-Michel Jarre

2/5

If I was 15 in 1976, this would have blown my mind. Since neither are currentlt true, it's alright, you can do better within the genre

Bright Flight

Silver Jews

5/5

NOW WE'RE TALKIN', ABSOLUTE BEAST OF A RECORD HERE

Physical Graffiti

Led Zeppelin

4/5

Their best album? Possibly

Dookie

Green Day

2/5

Oh geez alright. The drumming is undeniably some of my favourite for the genre, I feel like Travis Barker gets more than his fair share that should be redirected to Tre. This album just doesn’t hit like it used to for me. Maybe I’m just old now

American Gothic

David Ackles

3/5

If Scott Walker hadn’t done so many drugs and was pretty okay

The Visitors

ABBA

2/5

Never listened to an ABBA record, can confirm they are a singles band

The Slim Shady LP

Eminem

2/5

Liked it more than MMLP, but goddamn do I not care of Eminem.

Tapestry

Carole King

3/5

Pretty bangin album

She's So Unusual

Cyndi Lauper

3/5

Djam Leelii

Baaba Maal

3/5

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below

OutKast

4/5

Torn on this one. The high points some of the best songs of all-time, the low points aren't bad so much as forgettable. Turn it from a double LP to a single and it's basically perfect. As it stands, it's good enough for an 8/10 but it could be so much more

White Light / White Heat

The Velvet Underground

5/5

Big album from a big band. In what it lacks in memorability from its predecessor, it makes up for in audacity and avant garde tendencies

New Wave

The Auteurs

2/5

Completely meh, might feel different on a second listen

White Denim

3/5

Like it a lot more than I was expecting, some of the best indie rock drumming I've heard in some time. Kind of a mix between Sufjan and Gizz. One major nitpick would be the vocals, very dated

Parklife

Blur

4/5

I've tried this album so many times, and this is the time I've enjoyed it the most. Varied and sparkly production, great songwriting, worth its weight in gold. Also, probably one of my favourite album covers.

Hunky Dory

David Bowie

5/5

Don't need to relisten, ceritifed hood classic. Every song after Life on Mars could be Bowie farting into a microphone and it's still a Top 50 all time record

Seventh Tree

Goldfrapp

3/5

A&E was a pretty big standout. The whole record is nice sounding and clearly heartfelt, but the lack of any bigness kinda holds it back. Liked it more than I thought, might revisit

Make Yourself

Incubus

1/5

Hoo boy The nihilistic themes of Nirvana and Smashing Pumpkins in the early 90's seemingly caused a rift in the music industry where popular music got a little dark for a second so labels freaked out and reacted by finding blase, tepid bands that write songs about how life is worth living and that everything will turn out okay. Incubus is that reaction and I can't say it resonates with me. It's not even the sentiment of life being worth living, it's preachy nature of that sentiment mixed with HARD ROCK AND DJ SCRATCHES. There's the occassional moment where this record works (Pardon Me despite being a single IS a stand out track) but you could do so much better, even in nu-metal.

Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1

George Michael

4/5

His Sign O the Times, pretty great record

My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

5/5

Incredible record, still in love with it after all these years

3/5

Kinda sounds like coming 3 America, there’s better Koffi records

Talking Heads 77

Talking Heads

3/5

Idk what 4 talking heads records are on this thing, but if this replaced more songs, fear of music, remain in light, or speaking in tongues, absolute blunder. Good album, pales in comparison to what would come next for the group

Beauty And The Beat

The Go-Go's

3/5

Catchy, breezy, but ultimately a little unremarkable for me. Other all female bands of yonder have done it better

Tracy Chapman

3/5

Obviously Fast Car is one of the best songs of all time, the album on the whole doesn’t do a lot for me

At Mister Kelly's

Sarah Vaughan

2/5

The scat song kinda made me hate this, but there is something to jazz lounge that feels nice. Idk, I’m torn
