Sep 05 2024

Not my thing. Okayish British punk rock but nothing really stood out to me and caught my attention. Probably great if this is what you're into but it's not for me.

Dookie by Green Day
Sep 09 2024

While I'm not huge on Punk, Dookie is a great album with many of Green Day's great hits, although I found the start of it to be somewhat weak compared to the rest.

War by U2
Sep 11 2024

Sure it's quite Bono, but you can't deny the music is quite decent.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Sep 13 2024

Decent enough, but don't really vibe with it.

Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Sep 17 2024

Peace and love be with ya mon. Marley's signature reggae sound is on full display here.

Sep 18 2024

An awesome album, though I find it falters slightly towards the end. Promised you a miracle and Glittering prize are still great songs today.

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
Sep 20 2024

Had to bring aerosmith for a song

Synchronicity by The Police
Sep 24 2024

I hope this has the Puff Daddy version of the song and not that STING PIECE OF SHIT. FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

Gris Gris by Dr. John
Sep 25 2024

I... what? Maybe if I was roasted out of my mind I'd enjoy this but I was not and therefore I did not. Half an hour of nonsensical noise.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Sep 26 2024

Songs written with a lot of heart to it, even if I felt like I was being preached to by a Christian choir group.

1999 by Prince
Sep 30 2024

It's a bit odd for me, for every song I'm indifferent on, there's a song I love too. I hate 1999 so much though that it's mere inclusion brings it down a star for me.

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
Oct 01 2024

A great experience all around. I didn't come into this expecting to like it but I happily listened to it multiple times over.

Beautiful Freak by Eels
Oct 02 2024

Nothing really notable except for the one song that was in Shrek.

Duck Stab/Buster & Glen by The Residents
Oct 04 2024

Started out really weak, but I grew to appreciate the later songs for what they are, weird for the sake of weird but still had a bit of musicality to them. Interesting album to say the least...

Oct 07 2024

There was some real fucked up shit in that but I was entertained nonetheless, not to mention Em is a great performer regardless. Turns out you can rap about homosexuals and Vicodin and still sell records.

Different Class by Pulp
Oct 08 2024

50 minutes of this guy muttering nonsense while sucking air through his teeth, with inconsequential pop musical writing. Nothing noteworthy.

Bossanova by Pixies
Oct 09 2024

okay i guess

Talking Timbuktu by Ali Farka Touré
Oct 10 2024

Inoffensive, but not as exotic as I was expecting.

Faust IV by Faust
Oct 11 2024

Decent enough sounds, but I got bored halfway through. Not for me.

The Band by The Band
Oct 15 2024

Not terrible

Oct 16 2024

Excellent guitar and composition, but I absolutely cannot stand the singing. Knights of Cydonia definitely still goes hard as fuck though.

Exit Planet Dust by The Chemical Brothers
Oct 17 2024

It's just good Big Beat club music. Interesting to see where they started. The first half of the album is definitely weaker than the second half though imo.

Picture Book by Simply Red
Oct 18 2024

Came into this expecting to hate it. And, while not groundbreaking, this turned out to become actually nice, plesant, easy listening.

At Mister Kelly's by Sarah Vaughan
Oct 21 2024

Jazzy. Nice voice. Musically incomprehensible to me however.

Dry by PJ Harvey
Oct 23 2024

Standard sorta indie rock kind of affair. Doesn't speak to me.

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley
Oct 30 2024

Good, interesting

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Nov 01 2024

You can rate this album, assuming you can get your fat, swollen, sweaty stumps of imbred fingers onto the vote button.

With The Beatles by Beatles
Nov 11 2024

Mostly sounds like generic 50s surfer rock. Definitely before they had their own sound.

Document by R.E.M.
Nov 12 2024

Used to hate REM, now I'm mostly indifferent give or take a few songs of theirs. I'm pretty indifferent about this album as a whole too.

Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Nov 15 2024

Eh

Ramones by Ramones
Nov 18 2024

Plenty of great songs for a nostalgia-baiting, market chasing trailer for your 2010s overbudget corporate-designed movie/video game. Probably thrilling for it's time, but I don't think it holds up nowadays.

Sheet Music by 10cc
Nov 20 2024

A good listen all around that doesn't overdo it anywhere.

Fred Neil by Fred Neil
Nov 21 2024

Alright i guess

At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Nov 28 2024

It somehow seems a little more impactful when you play Jail songs within a Prison like that

For Your Pleasure by Roxy Music
Nov 29 2024

The first half is a disappointing, mindless noise that is indiscriminatable. Very meh. I can't tell if the rest of the album was any good, or if I was just stockholm syndromed into mildly enjoying (or tolerating) it, but the second half was decent enough.

Go Girl Crazy by The Dictators
Dec 04 2024

Interesting, but not really memorable in the slightest. I definitely wasn't expecting a cover of I got you babe though.

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Dec 05 2024

Pretty iconic, not much else to say that hasn't been said already by my peers.

Dec 06 2024

Of all the hiphop rap albums out there, this is certainly one of them.
