Megadeth to my ears. Srsly, if they'd spend some time thinking about some nice transitions, melodies, composition this could've been a great album.

Who's Next by The Who
May 20 2024

Timeless classic but the drums sound garbage

Blue by Joni Mitchell
May 21 2024

Perfect date night music, actually pretty good

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
May 22 2024

One of their better albums, has some nice songs but not the most exciting album ever

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
May 23 2024

Nonaned extreme stimme undso und crazy album aber halt jz auch eher nit so catchy -- würd i wieder anhören aber nit wirklich täglich

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar
May 24 2024

wenn i für jedes nigga an euro bekomm brauch i nimmer hackeln gehen In other news: die letzten 4 oder so songs actually ziemlich gut, der anfang naja, semi würd i mal sagen (mir egal ob er air max hat oder schnelle autos toll findet)

At Mister Kelly's by Sarah Vaughan
May 27 2024

Yeah well, it's an excellent voice and a pretty impressive album but I'm not a jazz guy i guess

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
May 28 2024

Hmm, nice but also a bit on the boring side. Apparently being named Elvis isn't enough.

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
May 29 2024

This album is the reason we can give 4 stars.

We Are Family by Sister Sledge
May 30 2024

Ja schon nice eigentlich

Modern Kosmology by Jane Weaver
May 31 2024

Probably wouldn't remember I listened to this

Jun 03 2024

This could be the perfect album. Potentially the best first 40 seconds on an album, ever. If they'd only went one prog step further and actually made the songs align better to each other. Great experience until around song 5. This could be a 6/5.

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Jun 04 2024

Hmm obviously great artist but also not immensely catchy

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Jun 06 2024

3/5 but extra points for the sound which is sooo much better than jimi hendrix sounds which i listened to before

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
Jun 07 2024

Oh Jimi if you'd only have lived in a world with proper recording equipment. This album is a 5/5 if you're a weird guitar nerd, for everyone else probably more like a 3/5.

Violator by Depeche Mode
Jun 10 2024

If every song is like missing the last 15% of greatness. Still good album but could be so much more.

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club
Jun 11 2024

Feels like drinking cuba libre -- nice taste, well made, nothing too exciting.

Jun 12 2024

Megadeth to my ears. Srsly, if they'd spend some time thinking about some nice transitions, melodies, composition this could've been a great album.

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Jun 13 2024

3+3=3 Bit boring but also good here and there. Who's that lady tho?

Sound of Silver by LCD Soundsystem
Jun 17 2024

Nice album actually, would be nice if the kraftwerky start would be embraced more throughout the album.

Traffic by Traffic
Jun 19 2024

Hmm, average average -- not the most exciting album but also not bad.

The Cars by The Cars
Jun 21 2024

There are two songs on there with >100m streams. I have never listened to either one before. Thing is, I wouldn't have missed them either.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Jun 25 2024

omg why are there SOOOO many of those 60s jazz albums. she obviously can sing but dude i had enough jazz on this list.

Arular by M.I.A.
Jun 26 2024

Uh

New Forms by Roni Size
Jun 27 2024

Good ideas on there. Would listen to that on a hot summer day while drinking in a bar if it's in the background but not on purpose.

Low-Life by New Order
Jun 28 2024

Hmm, good bit could need a hook, something exciting or something which makes me want to listen again.

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan
Jul 01 2024

Difficult album. Obviously packed with crazy good songs but also not really too exciting throughout.

Garbage by Garbage
Jul 02 2024

That ain't garbage

Bummed by Happy Mondays
Jul 04 2024

Bam! Nice one oida!

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Jul 08 2024

Goooooooood

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Jul 09 2024

Perfect 3.4 stars album

Jul 11 2024

One of these albums I probably don't remember I listened to in a couple of days. It's not bad, it's just crazy average throughout the entire album.

Jul 12 2024

This album is at the absolute edge of being a crazy masterpiece, still they didn't manage to cross that line. Nearly every song wants me to push them a tiny inch more into the explosive power underlaying this album, yet they stay in calm and controllable waters. Potential 12/10.

Van Halen by Van Halen
Jul 15 2024

Good album, would even be better without the song about sweet talking a women into having sex with him.

Be by Common
Jul 16 2024

Maybe I am just not a rap guy, maybe this album isn't actually this good. Anyways, it's simply a bit boring to listen to, it's like a sip of warm water.

Bubble And Scrape by Sebadoh
Jul 18 2024

I guess they were highly influential but this album unfortunately lacks proper recording

Goodbye And Hello by Tim Buckley
Jul 19 2024

Yeah well, like a sip of slightly warm water. I'd give it 2.5 but benefit of the doubt so 3.

Green by R.E.M.
Jul 22 2024

3

Want Two by Rufus Wainwright
Jul 24 2024

That has to be the weirdest intro ever. It's a very strange album and really not some easy listening but some of the songs are kinda good.

Black Metal by Venom
Jul 26 2024

holy moly make it stop. uninspired, boring and a weak voice, maybe i want my jazz albums back after all. i feel like i went to hell and back while listening to this cralbum (cralbum = crap album).

Back In Black by AC/DC
Jul 29 2024

probably the best ac/dc album, which still makes it an ac/dc album after all

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Jul 30 2024

not a huge stones fan but ok album i guess

Night Life by Ray Price
Jul 31 2024

Straight outta Sunday morning breakfast playlist. Extra points for the intro speech.

Music From The Penguin Cafe by Penguin Cafe Orchestra
Sep 24 2024

Unexciting but not in a bad way; it's experimental but at least it's music, I guess? (Looking at you, Einstürzende Neubauten)

Future Days by Can
Sep 25 2024

One CAN totally listen to this album and they CAN absolutely play their instruments! I guess this album CAN be your favourite album if you're very much into experimental stuff.

Blur by Blur
Sep 26 2024

Well, guess Oasis won Britpop

Phaedra by Tangerine Dream
Sep 27 2024

I mean it's not bad but it also feels like a 80's techno DJ rehersal session and it does not contain any real exiting moments

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Sep 30 2024

Anything else than 5 stars would just be a disgrace

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Oct 01 2024

Brutally good intro into the album, kinda could have made more out of the first song tho. The vocals don't carry the intro energy well I think. Obviously, there are a couple of pretty solid songs on there, overall it sounds a touch too much all-the-same to me. Solid 3.6/5 but cover art is nice so 4/5.

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Oct 02 2024

Obviously an important album, just not too much of a beatles fan

Logical Progression by LTJ Bukem
Oct 03 2024

Does honestly not offer enough to justify the slow emptiness

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Oct 07 2024

In the vast world of white men singing blues songs about some rural parts of the usa with fading voices, this is on the better side. (my my, hey hey is actually quite good but please give this dude a drummer)

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder
Oct 08 2024

Pretty good tbh didnt expect it to stand out from the pool of similar sounding blues stuff but it does

Oct 09 2024

This album feels like being stuck in traffic. You're comfortable, you have something to listen to, not total crap but also not the best radio station ever. But ultimately, you wait for it to end.

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Oct 10 2024

ahhhh why are there SO MANY albums which are just the same soft blues jazz country on this list? shes singing great, the album is just boring tho

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Oct 11 2024

Ugh, difficult -- it's not bad and there's obviously historical value to it but on the other hand, it's just another badly recorded, garbage sounding, blues dad rock album from the seventies.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Oct 14 2024

i knew this is a 5/5 before listening. favorite song is the rope for sure!

Nov 22 2024

The album cover is so bad it should give an instant -1 point. Album is ok-ish if youre into that kind of stuff, nothing crazy tbh.

Nov 26 2024

hour 356 of listening to 60s blues mash songs which were surely all nice by then but now are kinda meh (unfortunately also thanks to the garbage recordings back then)

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Nov 27 2024

if i have to listen to another album of which the cover is a washed out, bad arrangement of even worse lit musicians on stages with different colored lights, i think i'll go insane music wise its ok and definetly better than the usual album of which the cover is a washed out, bad arrangement of even worse lit musicians on stages with different colored lights because there is at least some excitement and variation in there.

The Trinity Session by Cowboy Junkies
Nov 28 2024

its actually quite good and her voice is great. could have a bit more going on tho and could have a bit more memorizable songs

Giant Steps by The Boo Radleys
Nov 29 2024

I am Thinking of Ways to like this album more but ultimately it was kinda boring tbh.

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
Dec 03 2024

Imagine you have a honestly great album, arguably nearly 5 stars after 6 songs and then you butcher it with a fucking COCONUT song?! Honestly, strong start but second half couldn't keep up.

Vincebus Eruptum by Blue Cheer
Dec 04 2024

They should probably try to re-record that once they're sober again. Complete torture.

Signing Off by UB40
Dec 05 2024

Drums sound amazing, band is great, music is kinda boring tho.

Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
Jan 30 2025

Najo, 3/5

Gentlemen by The Afghan Whigs
Jan 31 2025

Nice album but nothing crazy tbh

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Feb 03 2025

Fucking masterpiece. 6/5 at least. Also, separate the artist from the art.

Whatever by Aimee Mann
Feb 11 2025

Not bad, nothing too exciting either imo.

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Feb 12 2025

My memories of this album were pretty good but honestly, it sucks ass.

Back to Basics by Christina Aguilera
Feb 13 2025

That "thank you" song is peak comedy, saved it another star. Otherwise, really not my jam

Meat Puppets II by Meat Puppets
Feb 14 2025

Eh, well, best song is the nirvana cover

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Feb 17 2025

tbh kinda boring - i guess it has some historic significance but its just not a very exciting album

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Feb 18 2025

yeah i mean she's an excellent singer but it kinda didn't age well

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Feb 19 2025

good album to fall asleep to i guess

Fuzzy by Grant Lee Buffalo
Mar 28 2025

i mean its good but its also lacking something great

Abraxas by Santana
Apr 01 2025

prime dad rock (if your dad was smoking weed)

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
Apr 02 2025

Ah stop it with those 50s Jazz stuff

Nixon by Lambchop
Jun 25 2025

Nice

Dry by PJ Harvey
Jul 22 2025

Great album but not really anything that stands out tbh

New York Dolls by New York Dolls
Jul 25 2025

Solid yet not very exciting punk.

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Jul 30 2025

Slaps. Surprised me as well, I actually liked this one!

Blackstar by David Bowie
Aug 05 2025

Hmm, it's somewhat a great album but on the other side, it's not that great tbh.
