The self-titled album by The Velvet Underground & Nico never fails to impress. It's incredibly influential and widely considered one of the greatest albums ever. Having two singers adds a unique, enjoyable dynamic, and the instrumentals are both satisfying and perfectly crafted. The lyrics are also very well-written, making this album an all-around masterpiece.

Aside from the long runtime, which can be a downside, Speakerboxxx/The Love Below hits some incredible highs, even if there are a few lows. The lyricism is on point, as you’d expect from OutKast, and the R&B elements are especially well done. The album covers some strong, engaging themes, making it an interesting listen overall.

Every track on Thriller is solid, Quincy Jones produced a timeless record with no weak spots. Michael’s vocals are on point throughout, delivering real power and style. The whole album flows effortlessly, never losing energy or focus. From the intense beats to the unforgettable hooks, it’s a masterpiece that still feels fresh and engaging. This is more than an album it’s a defining moment in music, setting a standard for pop with lasting impact.

The Doors by The Doors is an engaging album that’s a pleasure to listen to, with hardly any low points. It maintains a consistently high quality, featuring well-crafted instrumentals, beautiful and fitting vocals, and impressive poetry. The album opens with a powerful intro and closes with a fitting outro, making for a cohesive and fun listening experience throughout.

Licensed to Ill has some standout tracks, though it feels a bit dated overall. The album has its highs but also some low points with less impressive songs. The sampling is excellent throughout, adding a lot to the sound, and the rapping is strong in places, though at times it falls short.

The start of Eliminator was strong, with some truly standout tracks at the beginning. However, as the album progressed, both the lyrics and instrumentals started to feel less engaging and a bit repetitive.

Parallel Lines by Blondie is an overall good album. Some of the instrumentals were very unique and impressive, and the singing was decent too. There were several great songs that I really enjoyed, but there were also moments where the album didn’t hit as strongly. Despite a few lows, it’s still a solid listen.

Parklife by Blur has a great vibe, and while it’s hard to find anything bad about it, there's also nothing particularly groundbreaking about it. Overall, it’s a solid album with enjoyable tracks that capture the mood of the time.

First of all, her vocal is sooo good. The instrumentals are engaging, shifting, and fun. The writing is very well done, with the subjects being executed even better. The album is beautifully crafted, with exciting and fun instrumentals. Overall, it's a great album!

"In Utero" by Nirvana delivers a very deep and personal mindset from Kurt Cobain, beautifully matched with the music. The drums are at their peak, driving the sound forward, while Kurt's vocals are incredibly deep and emotional. The album captures his struggles and thoughts, creating a raw and powerful experience for listeners. It's a remarkable reflection of his inner world, making it one of the band's most impactful works.

Few debut albums have changed rock music the way Are You Experienced did. Jimi Hendrix didn’t just play guitar, he completely redefined it. His playing on this album is unbelievable, bringing an energy and sound that was groundbreaking at the time and still feels fresh today. From the explosive ‘Purple Haze’ to the dreamy ‘The Wind Cries Mary,’ the album is packed with incredible moments. Songs like ‘Hey Joe’ and ‘Fire’ show his raw power, while ‘Are You Experienced?’ closes the album on a strange, almost otherworldly note. His lyrics are also original and creative, adding even more personality to the music. This album didn’t just set a new standard, it changed rock forever. A legendary debut that still stands as one of the greatest. 9.3/10

David Bowie was an artist who even made his death into art. At his age, most artists slow down, but he delivered Blackstar, one of his most unique and powerful albums. The music is dark, experimental, and haunting, blending jazz, rock, and electronic sounds in a way that feels completely fresh. The title track is a ten-minute journey through eerie, shifting moods, while ‘Lazarus’ feels like Bowie saying goodbye in the most poetic way possible. Songs like ‘Dollar Days’ and ‘I Can’t Give Everything Away’ are deeply emotional, making the album feel like a farewell letter wrapped in stunning music. Even without the context of his passing, Blackstar would still be an incredible album. But as his final work, it becomes something even greater, a bold and artistic goodbye from a true genius.

It’s very interesting to me that a 30-minute album can feel like a double album (in a good way), mostly due to its two-part structure. The first half focuses on human life from beginning to end, with an emphasis on youth and old age. The second half features songs about human life as well, but in a less structured way. Overall, it’s a great, well-flowing album.

Deep Purple in Rock is one of the most essential hard rock and heavy metal albums. The energy on this record is insane; every track is packed with power, and the band sounds like they’re on fire. Ritchie Blackmore’s guitar work is incredible, of course, he’s a legend, and Ian Gillan’s vocals are just insane. The whole band delivers top-tier performances, making this one of their most intense albums. ‘Child in Time’ is the standout masterpiece, building from a haunting ballad into one of the most powerful climaxes in rock history. But what makes this album amazing is that even without another track on that level, every song is still so good. ‘Speed King’ and ‘Flight of the Rat’ explode with energy, and the drumming and organ work add so much depth to the sound. This album helped shape the sound of hard rock and heavy metal, and it still holds up today. It’s fast, loud, and packed with incredible performances. Easily one of Deep Purple’s best.

Off the Wall is overall a fantastic album and truly a masterpiece. I feel the first half is a bit stronger than the second, not that the second half is bad; it’s SO GOOD. If the second half matched the energy of the first, it’d be an even higher rating for me.

There are maybe two songs on here that I think are amazing, 'Born on the Bayou' and especially 'Proud Mary' which is such a great song. But some tracks feel really bland and drag on longer than they should, like 'Graveyard Train'. The storytelling on the album is good and interesting, but there are a lot of moments that feel very generic. I’m not saying it’s a bad album, it’s definitely a good one, but it’s not great.

One of the best glam rock albums of all time, and of course, where there’s glam rock, there’s David Bowie. His production on the album is excellent, and he, along with Mick Ronson, didn’t miss on the production. Lou Reed’s writing and singing are also great, adding to the album’s charm. Overall, a fantastic album that’s definitely worth a listen, both iconic and highly enjoyable.

An absolutely stunning album by Björk. Everything about it vocals, production, writing, mixing, and arrangement is just incredible. It’s the definition of ASMR in music. The album never dips in quality, not even close; it's pure peak art pop from start to finish. Overall, a fucking masterpiece.

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails is truly one of the greatest albums of all time. The way Trent Reznor delivers the concept to the listener is just perfect; he masterfully crafts the descent of the character, making you feel every moment of the spiral. It’s like VR in music, fully immersing you in the experience. The album moves from chaotic, wild moments to sudden silence, making the structure feel so dynamic. The execution of the concept is flawless, and the ending ties everything together perfectly. It’s a timeless masterpiece and an industrial rock classic; one of those albums that will never lose its impact.
