Heroes to Zeros by The Beta Band

A great album, I have to underline the superb production and ideas, though I didn’t really connect with the overall project…

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
Apr 25 2024

A 7.5/10 ! Really lush and happy instrumentals, a timeless sound ❤️

Sound of Silver by LCD Soundsystem
Apr 26 2024

I really adored some aspects of it, and some of them surprised me in a good way. Maybe it won’t be your kind of album to listen to, because of the length of it and the overspread material in it. Overall, really appreciated this listen 🖤

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Apr 29 2024

A Great Album Filled with bangers but also monotonous fillers…

The Wildest! by Louis Prima
Apr 30 2024

A really enjoyable and modern listening experience, a classic 50’s to encounter at least 1 time in your lifetime

Back In Black by AC/DC
May 01 2024

An interesting album, which reminds me a bit of Led Zeppelin. Despite some tracks being iconic, the overall project feels a bit monotonous and it feels like every song resembles the others…

Lust For Life by Iggy Pop
May 02 2024

Really liked it. It's a fundamental album for late-70's punk. We can hear Bowie's influence in here, as we can also notice in his own "Tonight" album (1984). Really nostalgic and efficient.

American Beauty by Grateful Dead
May 03 2024

a pretty chill, though a bit too much maybe... not really my cup of tea, though I appreciate the overall early-70's folky vibe

Debut by Björk
May 06 2024

I LOVE BJÖRK ! Debut is absolutely one of her best works, and remains one of the most innovative debuts of all time

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
May 07 2024

A wonderful album. It really seems like a precursor of Prince, and overall mid-70's works (though released in 1969). I think the album contains really audacious moments and I definitely will be checking some other albums by this band. The reason why I haven't put it 5 stars, is because the nearly 14-minute track "Sex Machine" makes the album lack of cohesion and fun.

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
May 08 2024

Muddy Waters is brilliant, no doubt about that ! Blues is a genre with which I have a difficult relationship, for I get bored very fast. Fortunately the album was not too long, and Muddy really captures happiness, joy, and simplicity in this live recording. Great experience still, though not my cup of tea ;)

May 09 2024

I've seen the album cover so many times in my life, but never got the chance to listen to a copy before. The content is an efficient compilation of soul at its highest peak. Some tracks lack of consistency though, while others are just extraordinarily crafted (I've been loving you too long, change is gonna come...) Overall: Really enjoyable and majorly important in 1960s culture

Scream, Dracula, Scream by Rocket From The Crypt
May 10 2024

Not really my style, it was not an enjoyable experience and it feels like no track was really a standout. The 2 stars are here for the work and the effort.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
May 13 2024

The album is really fun, cohesive, while also being hugely varied and efficient. The only reason I haven't put 5 stars, is because it was my bestie's favorite band, and she's such a bitch...

Led Zeppelin II by Led Zeppelin
May 14 2024

As a huge fan of Led Zeppelin, I must admit that there are iconic tracks (Whole Lotta Love). It really is a classic. It is not my favorite of the band, but it's still pretty great ;)

All Mod Cons by The Jam
May 15 2024

Was quite an easy listening for me, some tracks being even too much simple...Overall, there are some real standouts in here (Fly, and English Rose for example), but some tracks are also really forgettable unfortunately...

Wonderful Rainbow by Lightning Bolt
May 16 2024

This album, which I listened to for the first time yesterday, is a fun, cohesive and really experimental record. I do not really have anything to say, except that I've been mind-blown the whole time, and I definitely will be checking out the rest of their discography. Noise rock is a genre i never really got into before, but this is so vast and rich, that it came to me as a real discovery.

Bryter Layter by Nick Drake
May 17 2024

Nick Drake is one of these artists that you must hear somehow. Just like Joni Mitchell's early 1970s era, Bryter Layter is a perfect mixture of folk, alternative and singer-songwriter genres. I never got bored, and I already listened to it beforehand.

Fulfillingness' First Finale by Stevie Wonder
May 20 2024

A Stevie Wonder album can only be charming and cannot disappoint. I enjoyed it, but not as much as I thought I would have. It’s still an impressive record.

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears
May 21 2024

wow. a mind-blowing album. no filler tracks, just pure tracks, banger after banger.

Jack Takes the Floor by Ramblin' Jack Elliott
May 22 2024

pretty archaic, I really did not enjoy it at all…

Remain In Light by Talking Heads
May 23 2024

This album was interesting. It contains really interesting elements, though generally not being my cup of tea.

LP1 by FKA twigs
May 24 2024

I've been a huge fan of Twigs for some years now, and her art never gets old. LP1 is a strong output that should not be underestimated. I've always preferred MAGDALENE (2019), but LP1 (2014) is pretty impressive as well.

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
May 27 2024

Great ideas and debut. However, sounded too monotonous for my ears that love changes

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
May 28 2024

Great album, especially inventive and modern considering it a 50s album.

Violator by Depeche Mode
May 29 2024

What an interesting, cohesive and avant-garde record. I really enjoyed it !

Live At The Star Club, Hamburg by Jerry Lee Lewis
May 30 2024

I like that it is filled with energy and good vibes. However all tracks seemed to me as the same and it began to bore me at a certain time

Heroes to Zeros by The Beta Band
May 31 2024

A great album, I have to underline the superb production and ideas, though I didn’t really connect with the overall project…

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Jun 03 2024

Enjoyable though not my music type

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
Jun 04 2024

Interesting and varied, though I’m not a fan of Kendrick

Veckatimest by Grizzly Bear
Jun 05 2024

What a creative and pleasant album ! The only reason it does not earn 5 stars is because I’m not familiar with it enough to consider it perfect…

Rhythm Nation 1814 by Janet Jackson
Jun 07 2024

One of my favorite albums of all time, truly cohesive and flawless !

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Jun 10 2024

This album is really chill, though constructed and really well thought out. I don’t think I connected with it as much as I did with Bryter Layter but it is still a wonderful record

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Jun 11 2024

Great album but not really memorable…

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Jun 12 2024

Really enjoyable and interesting, might need a 2nd listen to put it a 5 out of 5.

Queens of the Stone Age by Queens Of The Stone Age
Jun 13 2024

Great and interesting listen, though I did not really connect with their style of music usually

The Trinity Session by Cowboy Junkies
Jun 14 2024

I found the alt-country vibe really interesting, but not enough to be really submerged by it

Jun 17 2024

What a rich album, unfortunately not connectable at 1st listen for me at least…

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Jun 18 2024

Not for me, I don’t find this album catchy or interesting, and the vocal delivery doesn’t make sense to me unfortunately

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Jun 19 2024

Really interesting and melodic! A great time

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Jun 20 2024

A timeless and perfect record

Axis: Bold As Love by Jimi Hendrix
Jun 21 2024

My favorite by Jimi at the moment, though it’s not an easy listen

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
Jun 24 2024

Interesting concept, some tracks resonated a lot, while others not

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Jun 25 2024

Although I really don’t like the artist and his behavior, I gotta admit that this concept is really fun and entertaining to dive into…

The Rolling Stones by The Rolling Stones
Jun 26 2024

Highly forgettable, not my cup of tea at all

Rapture by Anita Baker
Jun 27 2024

Interesting, although I think the project does not contain any huge and unforgettable moments or tunes in it…

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Jul 01 2024

What a rich and unique concept, everything is to love here !!!

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Jul 02 2024

What a wonderful listen, this album has a bit of everything for everybody to listen to! I might need another listen to fully adore it

Sheet Music by 10cc
Jul 04 2024

What a rich and unique approach, which I hugely appreciate

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jul 05 2024

One of my fav from the alternative 1990s scene ❤️

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Jul 08 2024

Some interesting riffs but overall flat

Brothers by The Black Keys
Jul 09 2024

Very well executed project, kind of monotonous at certain times, but the quality is there.

Pieces Of The Sky by Emmylou Harris
Jul 10 2024

It seems like an artist I might like, but the album felt really dated and monotonous. I think there was more boredom to it than actual enjoyment...

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Jul 11 2024
If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears by The Mamas & The Papas
Jul 15 2024

I like the unique feel and musicality of this band, unfortunately it felt a bit repetitive at times.

The Next Day by David Bowie
Jul 16 2024

wow. one of the only Bowie albums I never listened to before, and it feels really strong and solid within his whole discography.
