Penthouse And Pavement by Heaven 17

This makes me want to squirm around on the ground like God’s favorite bug 🐜🦟🐜🦟🐜🦟

Abbey Road by Beatles

Come Together BANGS. And then damn what a drop-off. But then Oh Darling BANGS. And then the middle of this album is some camp-counselor-ass gather-round-the-fire type stuff that feels like it goes on for hours. And then the final few tracks BANG. The highs are high but the lows are abysmal.

Disraeli Gears by Cream
May 21 2024

I see why this is considered an all-timer and cutting edge for the time, but absolutely nothing stuck with me. Every track was immediately deleted from my brain by the time the next one started. Not interesting enough to love, not disinteresting enough to hate. The perfect example of what my ears consider a 5/10. Will never listen to this one again.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
May 22 2024

The random album generator smiled on me today. Funky, chunky, hell yeah. I only knew their hits before this. I liked those. I liked this, too.

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
May 23 2024

This album feels like 3 hours. When I saw the last track was 7 minutes I wanted to cry. I do not enjoy the vocals at all.

London Calling by The Clash
May 24 2024

After a miserable day listening to Iron Maiden this was a much needed palette cleanser. At no point did I know where this album was headed, several songs sound like they were plucked out of a completely different project. Weird, unexpected, nearing 50 years old, and still sounds fresh.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
May 27 2024

Rounding up from 4.5. Deluxe version has the better finale track for sure. Songbird is the one true dud in here

Parklife by Blur
May 28 2024

How fitting this came on a Bank Holiday. Call me crazy, but this guy sounds a lot like the guy from Gorillaz

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
May 29 2024

Eh

Highly Evolved by The Vines
May 30 2024

All I know about The Vines is that one scene in Freaky Friday when Jamie Lee Curtis (after having swapped bodies with Lindsay Lohan's character) is talking with the teenage love interest at a cafe and she's charmed by the fact he likes The Vines. I remember zero individual tracks from this, but I like the whole picture. Was hoping for more of an Australian accent.

Idlewild by Everything But The Girl
May 31 2024

I love waiting rooms.

Superunknown by Soundgarden
Jun 03 2024

Call this album a cigarette bc every part either rips or drags.

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Jun 04 2024

The only thing that could keep this album from being perfect is an uncomfortable spoken word argument between Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney. EDIT: fuck

Destroyer by KISS
Jun 05 2024

embarrassed by how much I enjoy this

I See You by The xx
Jun 06 2024

Royalty-free, boring, stinker of an album that leaves zero impression. It’s only value is being short.

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Jun 07 2024

Cool

Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys
Jun 10 2024

Not for me but props for not being boring

Hypnotised by The Undertones
Jun 12 2024

15 short silly songs that all blend together into something really fun.

Penthouse And Pavement by Heaven 17
Jun 13 2024

This makes me want to squirm around on the ground like God’s favorite bug 🐜🦟🐜🦟🐜🦟

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel
Jun 14 2024

I gave Bookends a 3 out of respect. In hindsight that was a mistake that album stunk but THIS is far far far better.

Who's Next by The Who
Jun 17 2024

I so badly wanted to like this but I felt nothing

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Jun 21 2024

unfathomably catchy

Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt
Jul 03 2024

You're an odd guy, Robert. A cool one though.

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails
Jul 04 2024

have to be in a very specific mood to enjoy this. I was not.

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Jul 05 2024
Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Jul 08 2024

Put this on at the zoo and teared up in front of a giraffe

Abbey Road by Beatles
Jul 09 2024

Come Together BANGS. And then damn what a drop-off. But then Oh Darling BANGS. And then the middle of this album is some camp-counselor-ass gather-round-the-fire type stuff that feels like it goes on for hours. And then the final few tracks BANG. The highs are high but the lows are abysmal.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Jul 11 2024

This shit’s cool as hell

Casanova by The Divine Comedy
Jul 18 2024

Shlocky, cheesy, lyrics are at times creepy, and yet I still kinda liked it.

Talk Talk Talk by The Psychedelic Furs
Jul 19 2024

Just kinda washed over me. A bit samey, but enjoyable enough.

School's Out by Alice Cooper
Jul 24 2024

3.5. Some fun sound in here

Nick Of Time by Bonnie Raitt
Jul 31 2024

Middle of the road

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Aug 01 2024

add this to the pile of inoffensive, nothing 3s that will be deleted from my brain immediately after listening.

McCartney by Paul McCartney
Aug 02 2024

meh

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Aug 15 2024

Way better than 4

Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
Aug 19 2024

I imagine this is what The Beatles sounds like to people who like The Beatles

At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Aug 21 2024

Coolest live album ever. I miss outlaw country

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Aug 22 2024

love these boys
