Melodrama by Lorde

This and pure heroine are automatic 5’s. Lorde doesn’t not get enough credit for literally created the bedroom pop sound

White Light by Gene Clark

+1 for Album cover I wouldn’t call this country. I really love this vibe. Acoustic 70’s never disappoints.

Justified by Justin Timberlake

It’s 5 material but I give out 5’s lightly so it’s a 4

1-Star Albums (3)

All Ratings (41)

The Scream by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Apr 17 2024

Right off the bat I’m adding a star to my rating just because it’s awesome. Not completely my style and doesn’t really evolve but I can see it. I’d probably add a song to a playlist but not listening to the album again

Horses by Patti Smith
Apr 18 2024

Just the female bob dylan? Music is alright but could not listen to the singing

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Apr 19 2024

Not for me. Don’t hate the vocals though and see the influence they brought to this genre. no hate if you like it.

Smash by The Offspring
Apr 22 2024

This is Tony Hawk Music, which I would like when playing the game but wouldn’t listen outside playing. The only redeeming quality is the fact that I could see it used in the sync world easily. The thing for me is the album cover is so trash that I knew what to expect before listening. The melodies are so forgettable and pretty much all the same in every song. To the credit of the vocalist, I’m not sure what else you could sing over these chord progressions.

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Apr 23 2024

Great listen. I can see influences of Radiohead and the Beatles in this. Personally, I’m bigger fan of the soft acoustic stuff on this one. The riffs are cool but feel like Elliot’s voice shines on the softer stuff. I feel like I’d listen to this album again if I was older when released but for now I’ll probably add a song to a playlist.

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Apr 25 2024

Honestly this wasn’t a bad listen. It was great background music. Very tears for fears in my opinion but very unique at the same time. I’m only giving a 3 because I can’t give decimal point scores.

Synchronicity by The Police
Apr 26 2024

This was an experience. I enjoyed not knowing where the songs were going to go next. When I think 80’s I think this. Would give a 5 but it got really weird for me a times but still very enjoyable

Feast of Wire by Calexico
Apr 29 2024

This was a very interesting listen. I enjoyed it. And I liked the folky jazzy stuff but wasn’t vibing the latin vibes. Also I want to give it a 4 but I need to take a star off because of the album cover. If I saw this for the first time I would have never listened which is a shame

Scott 4 by Scott Walker
May 01 2024

Anything that sounds like this I’m gonna kind of enjoy because it all sounds like music that can be sampled. But other than that I didn’t enjoy this that much. I thought the vibes were kinda cool and the album cover was dope but the music never took me somewhere emotionally and the vocals never had anything that made me remember them.

Youth And Young Manhood by Kings of Leon
May 02 2024

This just isn’t my vibe. I respect it tho and like elements of it but overall I can’t give more than a 3

Grace by Jeff Buckley
May 10 2024

this was overall a great album. Songs like “So Real” really set the album apart. Very interesting to see how this really influenced people like Tom Yorke. I’ve heard about Jeff Buckley but never gave a listen. Extremely underrated

May 21 2024

Brian Eno is a legend. I can see his influence on the talking heads specifically in this album. The album was a journey for sure but the ambient soft songs were my favorite on this.

Ten by Pearl Jam
May 22 2024

Alright so I’m not a Pearl Jam fan at all. Everything feels forced. This album just isn’t my cup of tea. I gave 2 stars because I’m okay if someone likes it. The musicianship is good enough for 2 stars. If the melodies and singing was better maybe I would bring it up a star.

May 23 2024

Interesting listen. Could see this being influences to Odd Future I really want to give it a 4 but unfortunately I won’t listen again and have to keep it at a 3

Dust by Screaming Trees
May 24 2024

Just nothing that felt worth listening to. I can see how it may be influential but nothing interesting enough.

Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
May 27 2024

For me it’s not bad but at this point in time it’s not new to me. While I can respect that they were around the same timeframe I still think the Beatles and even The Beach Boys did it way better. I’m giving a 3 out of respect

Melodrama by Lorde
May 29 2024

This and pure heroine are automatic 5’s. Lorde doesn’t not get enough credit for literally created the bedroom pop sound

Larks' Tongues In Aspic by King Crimson
May 30 2024

This is crazy. I couldn’t listen again but they deserve their credit.

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
May 31 2024

Not for me. I know it’s in the top 100 but just don’t like it.

White Light by Gene Clark
Jun 04 2024

+1 for Album cover I wouldn’t call this country. I really love this vibe. Acoustic 70’s never disappoints.

Kings Of The Wild Frontier by Adam & The Ants
Jun 11 2024

Really like tones and maybe I’d consider it on a roadtrip. I’m dating 3.6 because it doesn’t feel 3 or 4 worthy

Butterfly by Mariah Carey
Jun 12 2024

Classic R&B. Don’t really like her voice but can’t deny it

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Jun 17 2024

it’s Good, but not like exception but also I understand it more being from Jersey.

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Jun 19 2024

I mean it’s good when it comes to talent but I don’t like the music. I’m giving two stars out of respect

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Jun 26 2024

A classic. Gotta give them their credit. Vocally top notch and songwriting on this is great. Not my first go to sound wise but some songs I can see myself going back to

A Short Album About Love by The Divine Comedy
Jun 27 2024

This album is looong but it was also like 25 years ago so I get it. Anyways I just don’t like it. The talent is there and songwriter to an extent is really good but just not something I like and will ever probably like.

Highly Evolved by The Vines
Jul 03 2024

This was okay. It’s just real basic and nothing really intrigued me

Sister by Sonic Youth
Jul 05 2024

I compliment the experimental side of this but also think it’s ehh for this current timeframe. Which I’m sure at the time it was very new sounding

Jul 25 2024

This starts out so promising with the beginning of frustration but then the music comes in and sounds like that friend we all have that makes music but isn’t too great but people like them so it kinda gets popular. Tainted Love is the only good song and can’t even really give them credit for that.

Justified by Justin Timberlake
Jul 31 2024

It’s 5 material but I give out 5’s lightly so it’s a 4

Aug 01 2024

Freebird gives this record 3 stars right off the bat. Classic rock isn’t my thing but I have no choice but to give it a 5. The album name alone is worth an individual star
