Raw Power by The Stooges
Oct 18 2024

Quite adventures, must have been blown peoples' minds back then. Though it might not hold the same weight today, the energy and creativity on songs such as 'Raw Power' and 'Gimme danger' still shine through. The melodies hook you right in and Iggy's vocal delivery is very memorable. It's a product of it's time but in the best way possible. Additionally this album feels like a blueprint for what would become punk music with it's raw and eccentric vocals, such as the wild guitar melodies. All in all a pretty fun listen

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Oct 21 2024

incredibly versatile and emotional record, loved this one

Metallica by Metallica
Oct 22 2024

You can finally hear the bass after the very raw sounding 'And Justice For All' .Though it's probably not their best record in terms of songwriting and melodies, it's certainly their most influential to date. With it's thick production and a more melodic approach it stars a couple of their most popular songs like Enter Sandman, The Unforgiven & Nothing Else Matters. Other highlights for me include 'Wherever I May Roam' , 'The God That Failed' and 'Through The Never'.

Hejira by Joni Mitchell
Aug 22 2025

kinda underwheling sadly, but will to it listen again some time

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears
Aug 27 2025

Strong Record, with monumental Singles. a few duds at the tail end of the album but they're intentional

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Sep 16 2025

more interesting than the first two albums, because they don't rely on the bombastic guitar riffs and drum parts as much. However what brings most of their material down is that the feeling of groundbeaking music wears off more and more.

Harvest by Neil Young
Sep 29 2025
Pretenders by Pretenders
Oct 14 2025

It's all right, probably gets better with every listen.

Public Image: First Issue by Public Image Ltd.
Oct 15 2025

pretty all right, a bit ramshackle in terms of playing, but I like the ideas for the most part. Certainly more intriguing than the Sex Pilots. Will return to this one and check out some more of their Material.

Bummed by Happy Mondays
Oct 31 2025

an absolute wild project, that feels like a never ending drug induced party.

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
Nov 03 2025

extremely influential work in the realm of electronic music and synth-pop. Great listen, will return to this in the future.

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Mar 16 2026

This one starts off with the all TIme classic 'paint it black'. Though most of the record doesn't come close to this, there's several other highlights in the form of 'Flight 505' and 'going home'. All in all quite enjoyable, but the Stones would go on to release far more exciting award with their next album and beyond.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Mar 17 2026

incredible, a generational classic for a reason.

Mar 23 2026

great introduction to Dylan's work, as i've not been familiar with the music. I enjoy his storytelling a lot on songs like Maggie's Farm or Mr.Tamburine Man. great uses of harmonic and other folk instrumentals with the occasional touches of electric guitar. Subterranean Homesick Blues is a strong opener and gets you immidiatley into the groove of the album. His lyricsm is marked by sharp obervations of people and their surroundings, witty remarks mixed with abstract metaphors. I can see this growing a lot more with each listen as there's a lot to unpack that i didn't catch with just one listen.

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Jul 10 2026

pretty all right singer songwriter stuff, will return to it in the future. Not mind blowing though.

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Jul 13 2026
Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Jul 14 2026

All time classic from the 90s. Starting with the opener 'Rock n Roll Star' the track perfectly sets the mood for the album. Youthful, ambitious, conveying the feeling invincible no matter of one's circumstances. 'Supersponic' got me into Oasis in the first place.

Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
Jul 20 2026

solid psychedelia and defintely more to it than the classic 'Time of the season'.
