Tidal by Fiona Apple
Aug 16 2024

Like a sultry Florence and the Machine, but didn’t really hook me. Criminal is the best song.

Murmur by R.E.M.
Aug 19 2024

Liked this album. Not necessarily a new favorite, but I could see myself listening to it again. It grew on me the more I listened.

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
Aug 20 2024

Already a fan of this album. It admittedly lulls a little in the middle, but has a strong start and finish. Sprawl II is an immaculate song.

Blur by Blur
Aug 21 2024

Felt like I was almost into it a lot of times, but it just never really clicked. Didn’t hate it and liked some elements of it, but I just didn’t love it.

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Aug 22 2024

Like this a lot. I especially like Dull Life. The variety between the noisiness and quieter parts is nice in the album. Really got into some of the melodies.

Kimono My House by Sparks
Aug 23 2024

Funky and fun. The guitar in This Town Ain’t Big Enough For Both Of Us reminds me of the Sailor Moon theme song. Would definitely listen to this again.

Appetite For Destruction by Guns N' Roses
Aug 27 2024

Good but just not totally my thing. I like the nostalgia. Many songs are familiar. But I just didn’t really get into it.

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
Aug 28 2024

Couldn’t really get into it. I found it weird and grating instead of cool and funky, so it’s just not for me.

Sheet Music by 10cc
Aug 29 2024

Bit too broadway-esque for me. Not really my thing.

Sunshine Hit Me by The Bees
Aug 30 2024

I liked it, but it’s mostly just nice background music. Didn’t really catch me. I like A Minha Menina.

Garbage by Garbage
Sep 02 2024

Didn’t hate it, but nothing really stood out to me.

Sep 03 2024

Really liked this. The music is good, but I especially loved the coziness of the live set. I love hearing the band taking to the audience and making jokes. The songs themselves are amazing too.

Pornography by The Cure
Sep 04 2024

Didn’t really get into it. Nothing stood out to me.

The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground
Sep 05 2024

I didn’t hate it and I almost liked it. I like the grungy classic rock vibe and the familiarity of the songs. The album starts strong but then ends with the absolute drag that is European Son.

Sep 06 2024

I really wanted to like this. It seems so much like an album I would love, but something just wasn’t clicking. It was too bubble gum pop at moments and too mellow at others. I like The Mother We Share.

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
Sep 09 2024

Didn’t hate it, but didn’t love it.

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Sep 10 2024

Could get into some of the songs and really disliked some of the others. Overall it’s just not really my thing.

One World by John Martyn
Sep 11 2024

Very mellow. Nice background music but not a lot more.

World Clique by Deee-Lite
Sep 12 2024

I’d heard Groove Is In The Heart before, and I like that one. Overall I like it but it’s just not totally my thing.

Nevermind by Nirvana
Sep 13 2024

Very close to a 4. I love some of the songs, but I’m not into the yell-y parts.

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
Sep 16 2024

Liked some of it, but overall not totally my thing.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Sep 17 2024

I really like Hallelujah, but that’s about it. Rest was very meh to me.

american dream by LCD Soundsystem
Sep 18 2024

Biased review because I already like some of their music. I don’t love all the songs (like the end of the album drags a bit for me), but I really like a lot of the others. Really love call the police.

Hejira by Joni Mitchell
Sep 20 2024

Her voice is pretty, but I don’t care for the chatty meandering way that she sings

All Things Must Pass by George Harrison
Sep 23 2024

Very long. I liked some of it but a lot of it just didn’t stand out to me.

Let's Stay Together by Al Green
Sep 24 2024

I like it but don’t love it. Didn’t hate listening but I wouldn’t seek it out again.

System Of A Down by System Of A Down
Sep 25 2024

Varied between “this is almost unlistenable” to “hmmm this does sound like music, but it’s not really my thing.” Didn’t hate it as much as I expected I would from the first song, but it’s sure not my thing.

Third by Portishead
Sep 26 2024

Like it but didn’t love it. Just never really caught me. I like the instrumentals the best.

Bossanova by Pixies
Sep 27 2024

I like it, but I just don’t think I’d seek it out again. I like Is She Weird the best.

Document by R.E.M.
Sep 30 2024

It’s The End Of The World As We Know It is a classic, but otherwise it’s not totally my thing. Good, but nothing I don’t think I’d seek it out.

Oct 01 2024

Very solid album. Big fan of Killer Queen especially.
