High Violet by The National

I always thought of myself of a fan of The National, but revisiting this album I was surprised to find myself incredibly bored. It did prompt me to listen to Trouble Will Find Me and still really enjoyed that one. Idk! Maybe their stuff is too similar and I feel like TWFM does it best.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jun 04 2024

Kinda shocked how much of this album was burned into my brain. Listened to it a lot in high school but it’s never one I’ve revisited at all. A couple undeniable bangers but nothing incredibly exciting!

Peter Gabriel 3 by Peter Gabriel
Jun 05 2024

Nothing terrible but I did not connect with it at all! Sorry!

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Jun 06 2024

banger! fully prepared to have MASTER! MASTER! stuck in my head for a week. Tbh probably a 4.5 because I’m too much of a coward to give it a 5.

Jun 07 2024

as much as I'm a sucker for a pedal steel guitar, so much of this fell flat for me. I feel like others do country/rock better, even though the byrds seem like they were one of the firsts to do it. tbh I'm glad I listened to the rehearsal takes because I vibed with those way more, they felt much more textured and interesting. kinda funny reading that nashville was so against them because they had long hair when they literally have a whole ass song talking about how great jesus is. what a funny town!

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel
Jun 08 2024

so so so lovely. I love The Dangling Conversation so much, had it on repeat for awhile today. I love S&G. Randomly made me think a lot of Fleet Foxes early stuff so then I listened to Fleet Foxes for the rest of the day and that was nice :)

Garbage by Garbage

hell ya!

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Jun 10 2024

didn’t love it!

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Jun 11 2024

Solid! probably nothing I’ll revisit too often but I had a great time listening

Rhythm Nation 1814 by Janet Jackson
Jun 12 2024

Such an undeniable legendary pop album. Listened to it twice today because I was having so much fun with it. Miss You Much is my fav I think, such a banger. I feel like Janet Jackson is often overlooked when talking about the greatest pop stars of all time, but you can see that a lot of what she did is in the DNA of many of the modern pop stars we love.

Jun 13 2024

love wilco! I think this album still holds up, it’s probably not my fav of theirs but it was very nice to revisit.

Dog Man Star by Suede
Jun 14 2024

Tbh never heard of Suede before! Pretty solid album! Nothing I’d revisit often probably, might be basic to say but I’d much rather just put on Bowie instead of this

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
Jun 18 2024

Had an amazing time with this one. Definitely something I’ll continue to revisit!

Shadowland by k.d. lang
Jun 19 2024

I think my favourite we’ve listened to so far. So so good.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Jun 25 2024

Incredibly interesting reading about Fela Kuti’s story. Really loved the album and I’m glad to have discovered it here!

Gris Gris by Dr. John
Jun 26 2024

Closer to a 4.5 - really loved this, there were some wild, psychedelic sounds happening. Would love to do mushrooms and listen to this while walking in a forest or something. Dr John seemed like a pretty interesting dude. I wanna go to New Orleans so bad!!!

Machine Head by Deep Purple
Jun 27 2024

Nothing special but enjoyed having it on in the background!

American Idiot by Green Day
Jun 29 2024

Had a ton of fun revisiting this. I never listened to a ton of Green Day but I always loved this album and I think most of it holds up pretty well. I bet they felt so clever making two songs actually one song

69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields
Jun 30 2024

Kind of a slog to get through, didn’t really connect to any of it but there were hints of things I liked here and there

Jul 04 2024

This is definitely a 4.5 for me - had such a good time with it. I already know I'm going to be revisiting this lots and I'm excited to discover more from richard & linda thompson

In Utero by Nirvana
Jul 05 2024

Grew up passively listening to this album sooo much because my brother would listen to it all. the. time. There was a good couple of years where he would rotate between this and Pink Floyd’s The Wall every single day. So much of it has been burned into my brain but I still have never been a huge nirvana fan otherwise, so it was really interesting revisiting this on my own terms and actually really enjoying it!

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Jul 07 2024

Incredibly nostalgic for me and liked a good amount of it, but nothing I really connect with now and don’t think I would ever revisit

Van Halen by Van Halen
Jul 09 2024

quintessential dad rock!

Shalimar by Rahul Dev Burman
Jul 11 2024

Ton of fun with this one! Maybe closer to a 4.5

Pink Moon by Nick Drake

really loved this album - chill and easy listening :)

Caetano Veloso by Caetano Veloso
Jul 25 2024

maybe closer to a 4.5 - had an absolute blast with this! a lot of it felt quite cinematic, a sense of grandeur that was so fun to listen to

Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin
Jul 27 2024

nothing extraordinary imo but was easy listening background music for me!

Soul Mining by The The
Jul 28 2024

had a ton of fun with this one, will definitely be revisiting

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Jul 31 2024

would've loved to have been in a that room, immaculate energy and vibes

Hms Fable by Shack
Aug 02 2024

idk how to really explain it but they sound like a fake band in a bad movie

Lady In Satin by Billie Holiday
Aug 08 2024

Really lovely. I love albums that make me feel like I'm in a movie and this one did exactly that :)

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Aug 09 2024

I have never been able to get into Joy Division and I don't think I ever will sORRRRYY
