Popular Reviews

Tanto Tempo by Bebel Gilberto

wow. This is music that doesn't just play in the background—it creates a mood that lingers long after the final note. Whether it's early morning, afternoon or late at night, her soothing voice and subtle arrangements are a treat for my ears and emotions.

Boston by Boston

an MIT engineer recording one of the best-selling (debut)albums of all time in his basement, legendary. It’s More Than a Feeling, and the entire album has this smooth, easy-going rock vibe. Consistently great.

Sail Away by Randy Newman

Hit and miss. The tunes are good, lyrics cynically clever, his voice like a turtle with a cold.

The Yes Album by Yes
Oct 09 2024

What have i just been listening to? I appreciate the way they have been creative with the longer tracks. But no. nooo.

The Wildest! by Louis Prima
Oct 10 2024

Pure swing energy!

Love the sound

Trio by Dolly Parton
Oct 30 2024

Like 1 or 2 songs, just not my cup of tea

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Oct 31 2024

One if the greatest albums.

Eagles by Eagles
Nov 01 2024

I love that rock hippie vibe. Although it does not hold this for the entire album, some songs are a bit folky and slow.

My Aim Is True by Elvis Costello
Nov 05 2024

I wasn't really impressed, I listened in the car, maybe I missed some details because of that.

Le Tigre by Le Tigre
Nov 06 2024

Cool.

Devotional Songs by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Nov 07 2024

I liked the album and rhythm, but could not listen to it the 2nd time I played the album.

Is This It by The Strokes
Nov 11 2024

Feeling 15 again. Did not expect this one to be in the list. While undeniably strong, the album's intensity makes it more of a concentrated experience than a casual repeat listen.

Snivilisation by Orbital
Nov 13 2024

Wow. What a surprise. Never heard it before and it’s such a beauty.

In It For The Money by Supergrass
Nov 15 2024

This is the kind of music that makes me turn off my radio. Despite the few hits from that era, I find it very difficult to listen to.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Nov 19 2024
Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
Nov 21 2024

Franz Ferdinand, such a long time ago i listened to it.

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Nov 22 2024

Such a beautiful talent! Amazing use of the plura of instruments available.. and love the iconic sound he produces with the clavinet.

Dec 05 2024

Wow. Never really listened to Elton John's music. Thought it was boring. But, I was so very wrong. This album is very diverse in its expressions. Love it. I will keep listening to it.

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Dec 10 2024

Love the Boss

Microshift by Hookworms
Dec 11 2024

Not sure why it's here. But i love the sound. Opener is nice, everything is nice. This one can be on repeat and i would not mind.

Gold by Ryan Adams
Dec 13 2024
Either Or by Elliott Smith
Dec 17 2024

Very easy goiing and complete. Altough there's a certain sad flowing trough. Ended up listening to all his music for the rest of the evening.

Iron Maiden by Iron Maiden
Dec 18 2024

Far better than expected! The album shines with captivating vocals and a very catchy sound. While enjoyable, it doesn’t quite sweep me off my feet

Truth by Jeff Beck
Dec 20 2024

Only the first 6 seconds of the album i liked.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Dec 23 2024

Lovely. I like the album as a whole. Most impressive is

Fly Or Die by N.E.R.D
Dec 25 2024

hmm. this one was hard. I like some tunes, like Fly or Die and Drill Sergant and a few othes, overall, it's just not really my style I gues.

The Beach Boys Today! by The Beach Boys
Jan 02 2025

Catchy happy sounds. Good vibrations and timeless tone

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Jan 06 2025

Wow. What a beauty this album. His voice, the big band, the whole composition. Great.

Dookie by Green Day
Jan 07 2025

Old school memories with this one. Altough I discovered Green Day mainly trough Nimrod, Dookie was a quick catch up for me. I like the album from "Burn Out" to "All By Myself" back and forth. Love the album art too. Mine came with a green case. Still have it.

Eternally Yours by The Saints
Jan 08 2025

wow. This album rocks! xThrowback to the early foundations of punkrock. I love fast pace of the drums, the drums and the drums. This one will definitly on my longlist.

Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
Jan 09 2025

Lovely rocking album. Weird Zombie story about the Zombie’s.

Logical Progression by LTJ Bukem
Jan 10 2025

1996, bass and drums and soothing senthersiser sounds.This whole albums feels like a chill out evening, or just background during a focus session. The blend of rhythmic groove with atmospheric textures feels timeless. It's a Logical Progression from dancing to chilling.

Hotel California by Eagles
Jan 13 2025

Yeah, The title track is obviously iconic. The whole album is filled with great songs. With Life in the Fast Lane and New Kid in town pulling the peloton ahead.

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Jan 16 2025

This one kicked in right from the start with 'Safe From Harm'. The whole album flows effortlessly. Carried by slow, thundering bass grooves a combined with good vocals.. The whole album has you swinging and chilling at the same time.

Superfuzz Bigmuff by Mudhoney
Jan 17 2025

This one hurt.. The supposedly groundbreaking fusion of garage rock and punk feels more like a relentless assault on the ears.

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
Jan 20 2025

IMO, best listend as a whole. Leonard Cohen's strong, dark voice leads us through a masterful exploration of mortality, depression, and spiritual longing with both gravitas and exciting expectation.. This is one of my favorites and I can listen to endlessly, a deep final statement from a legendary songwriter.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Jan 21 2025

Catchy, cool jazz with a distinctive piano rhythm. Just like Dave Brubeck probably didn't expect his tunes to become hits, I didn't expect to be so drawn in by this cool jazz, with its saxophones and catchy rhythmic style

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
Jan 23 2025

Love the band's raw energy.. the speedy, blistering guitarwork and fast paced drums. It's rock&roll on a high-octane mixture.

Drunk by Thundercat
Jan 29 2025

This bass-wizard Thundercat made a funky space-trip. Soul-searching grooves to trap-funk magic.

Feb 26 2025

Apart from take on me every now and then. Blegh. This is the worst. Nothing the like to here.

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
Feb 27 2025

Great album. It has defined my youth as a young listener. The album goes back in memory lane, ofcourse with the likeable hits ike Disarm and Today. The vulnerable lyrics combined the guitar work and the symphonic complexity make it great.

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Feb 28 2025

I really dig the happy egg vibe that ELO creates in this album. Love songs, heartbreak and finding happiness. Technically I like the orchestral arrangements blended in rock. I bought the album in my youth because of Mr. Blue Sky and i wore it out.

Parachutes by Coldplay
Mar 04 2025

I certainly love the debuut of Coldplay, but i have a complicated relationship with it. The individual songs are beautiful - Chris Martin's vulnerable vocals surely do touch. Yellow will always be special. That said, I cannot listen to the entire extend of the album in one sitting. Perhaps the consistent melancholy. I tune out, or I get this sad depressed feeling. It's almost too effective at projecting those elements of vulnerability.

Tanto Tempo by Bebel Gilberto
Mar 06 2025

wow. This is music that doesn't just play in the background—it creates a mood that lingers long after the final note. Whether it's early morning, afternoon or late at night, her soothing voice and subtle arrangements are a treat for my ears and emotions.

Siembra by Willie Colón & Rubén Blades
Mar 07 2025

A perfect mix of dance-worthy beats and genuine emotion – a classic for good reason

Damaged by Black Flag
Apr 18 2025
Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Apr 21 2025

Tra-a-a-a-cy chapman.

Slipknot by Slipknot
Jun 20 2025

Yes. Wait and bleed. And then there's that.

Ramones by Ramones
Jun 23 2025

Punk rock classic.Blitzkrieg Bop and Judy Is a Punk burst with simplicity and attitude. It’s the roots of later punk bands, yet I crave the refinements the later generation bands added.

Tidal by Fiona Apple
Jun 30 2025
Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Jul 24 2025
American Idiot by Green Day
Aug 11 2025

This is one of the greatest albums ever, for me. I Love the double storylines in the album. The clasic coming-of-age story and the society criticism. Could really connect to it as a youngling: crying along to Boulevard of Broken Dreams and feeling the devastasing loss of young love in Whatsername.

British Steel by Judas Priest
Aug 14 2025

Iconic rifs and vocals. Love it

Sep 09 2025

Wow. I’ve listened to this album for hours and hours back when I was 14-15 I loved the explicit lyrics, I loved the whole vibe. The Marshall Mathers LP felt raw, rebellious, and unlike anything else at the time.

Dummy by Portishead
Oct 27 2025

not for me

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Nov 25 2025

A stunning blend of euphoria, melancholy and emotion, transporting me back to earlier days. The Killers.. Catchy, pop-rock brilliance with gorgeous vocals and unforgettable hooks.

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
Nov 28 2025

wow. This sounds amazing. A Big band with pure direction.

This one has me hooked, great talent. I've heard her songs, but never connected to them. I like that the album had a good constrast and feels pure.

Dec 02 2025

This brings back great memories, Clocks, In My Place, The Scientist... all bangers! I remember the first time I heard Clocks: early morning around 05:30 am on 3FM while doing my paper route as a teenager. Giel played it as a promo before the album dropped. Love at first hearing

Oedipus Schmoedipus by Barry Adamson
Dec 03 2025

A ride of brilliance of weird music mixing together. Feels like you're into a movie, but your're not. And yet..

Group Sex by Circle Jerks
Dec 04 2025

Punk from the first second. Short bursts of energy, like rapid fire that lands a punchline. GO!

Dec 05 2025

Hard to judge objectively when it's this praised. But stripping away the hype and hearing it in 1967 context, this is exceptional.

Boston by Boston
Dec 08 2025

an MIT engineer recording one of the best-selling (debut)albums of all time in his basement, legendary. It’s More Than a Feeling, and the entire album has this smooth, easy-going rock vibe. Consistently great.

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Dec 09 2025

Respect the craft, the complexity, tempo changes, and intricate riffs. But honestly, too much shifting for my taste. Not for me.

Hounds Of Love by Kate Bush
Dec 11 2025

Made in her own barn, which is impressive. The album makes me drift and dream.

Fisherman's Blues by The Waterboys
Dec 12 2025

I really liked the easy going vibe, the folky, country rock and roll.

1999 by Prince
Dec 16 2025

Appreciate what he did with the Linn LM-1 that created the revolutionary sound.

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Dec 18 2025

I can hear the class, probably a masterpiece for blues-rock lovers. Not for me. Altough I did enjoy it

Sail Away by Randy Newman
Dec 19 2025

Hit and miss. The tunes are good, lyrics cynically clever, his voice like a turtle with a cold.

Dec 22 2025

He owns it, solid hits, great sound, great voice. But it plays as one long piece. Maybe it needs more listens than I had time for.

Headquarters by The Monkees
Dec 24 2025

All that fighting for creative control, and this is what they made? Boring folk-rock. The story's better than the album.

Jan 06 2026

Funky beats, shocking lyrics. The content aged poorly, but the talent is undeniable. This album changed hip-hop forever.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel
Jan 07 2026

Nice tunes that feel flat, lacks bite. Works better as background in a playlist than a standalone album.

Smash by The Offspring
Jan 12 2026

I never really was an Offspring guy. It's fast, catchy, fun, but too formulaic. Great hits though, but the rest is album filler imho.

The Cars by The Cars
Jan 19 2026

The album is filled with classics. It was just what I needed.

The Doors by The Doors
Jan 20 2026

This album brings so many feelings. Dark, Intense Dark, euphoric.

Infected by The The
Jan 23 2026

This one is very boring. cannot recommend. Perhaps for in the background on vol 1.

Timeless by Goldie
Feb 04 2026

Like the vibe, will listen to it again.

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Feb 05 2026

wow, i love the iconic sounds of this album. Haunting en beautifull.

Live At The Star Club, Hamburg by Jerry Lee Lewis
Feb 06 2026

Wow. This one rocks. Musically he completely blows the roof off, morally, too, though in a far more troubling way. The talent is undeniable, and the energy is overwhelming. If you imagine being there live… what a party.

Licensed To Ill by Beastie Boys
Feb 09 2026

Cool! Ahead of their time. Always feels like it's younger. Good year though ;-)

Hot Buttered Soul by Isaac Hayes
Feb 10 2026

wow. This album made me do all my chores in a blink. Very good.

I Should Coco by Supergrass
Feb 12 2026

Catchy uptempo Brittpop, fun to listen to.

Exit Planet Dust by The Chemical Brothers
Feb 13 2026

wow. I love this one. Geavy beats, acid synths, pure raw energy.

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Feb 16 2026
Beyond Skin by Nitin Sawhney
Feb 18 2026

Beyond...World music fusion.. that goes nowhere

Connected by Stereo MC's
Feb 20 2026

I like the funky and upbeat atmosphere.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Feb 23 2026

I think it's beautifull, but is doesn't move me. Not my rhythm

The Soft Bulletin by The Flaming Lips
Feb 26 2026

Wow. This has a very relaxed vibe

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Mar 02 2026

wow

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane
Mar 03 2026

Perfect beach background music, great hits on the album too.

Rejoicing In The Hands by Devendra Banhart
Mar 05 2026

Too slow, cringy voice that doesn't work in this pace

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Mar 06 2026

Gets better with every play. Refreshing sound, beautiful journey!

Copper Blue by Sugar
Mar 11 2026

Nice riffs, sounds good

Devil Without A Cause by Kid Rock
Mar 12 2026

Typical late-90s (kid)rock, loud rap-metal with catchy vibe.

Wild Gift by X
Mar 13 2026

Liked what i heard.

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Mar 24 2026

wow. Masterpiece

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Jun 29 2026

Ignored them in my early years, but wow, powerful heavy metal with crisp twin guitars and strong vocals. Everything hits hard and direct.

Van Halen by Van Halen
Jun 30 2026

Very strong debut

Haha, what is this? Feels like attack mode = on. Had to switch to the originals just to get a feel for what's being done here. It must have been great to be in the band, playing this music at this pace and volume.. from that perspective, I'd give it 5 stars. But since I cannot listen to it whitout holding on to that perspective… it goes down to 2.

The Stooges by The Stooges
Jul 02 2026

Repetitive sounds, I simply cannot listen to

Feast of Wire by Calexico
Jul 03 2026

Laid-back desert grooves, warm horns, folky at its core. But it gets messy in the experimental in-between tracks.

First Band On The Moon by The Cardigans
Jul 08 2026

The whole album has its distinct sound, and great hits like Lovefool make me go back memory lane. I appreciate the metal influences mixed with poppy music. I think they set a foundation for this genre.

Black Metal by Venom
Jul 09 2026

Tight musicianship and raw power, but it's a bit over-the-top for me. I've read it was disruptive and set a foundation for new forms of metal to come, which makes the listen different
