Popular Reviews

The Gilded Palace Of Sin by The Flying Burrito Brothers

Terribly boring in that it was the same song over and over.

Marquee Moon by Television

Sounds like the Ramones a touch. Started with some good songs but went downhill from there. A lot of the later songs blended together.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company

Janis Joplin’s vocals carried this or else everything would have blended together.

Dec 23 2024

Silky smooth beats matched with flowing lyrics. No wonder it sparked the East Coast rapping scene.

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Dec 24 2024

It had some good hits but got a bit monotonous. I thought I’d like it more.

Kid A by Radiohead
Dec 25 2024

I felt the instruments were just thrown in haphazardly. Two songs spoke to me but the rest blended together.

Marquee Moon by Television
Dec 30 2024

Sounds like the Ramones a touch. Started with some good songs but went downhill from there. A lot of the later songs blended together.

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Dec 31 2024

An oldie but a goodie.

Sunshine Superman by Donovan
Jan 01 2025

Nothing special - music blended together and even the imagery in the lyrics couldn’t save it.

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Jan 03 2025

Even with its repetitiveness, I appreciated the lyrics and melody.

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Jan 06 2025

Classic album with some good hits.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Jan 07 2025

I appreciate the piano playing and she sung with lots of emotions. I liked it more than expected, even if the end of the album blended together.

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar
Jan 08 2025

Absolutely fantastic album. So much creativity with lyrics and accompanying instrumentals. What a pleasure to listen to.

Meat Puppets II by Meat Puppets
Jan 09 2025

It was better than I expected but the songs blended together at the end.

Vento De Maio by Elis Regina
Jan 10 2025

Nothing special - all songs blended together.

Arular by M.I.A.
Jan 16 2025

Interesting sounds and instruments. But, it wasn’t enough to save the songs from blending together with one another.

Jan 20 2025

It was harder rock than expected at times. I enjoyed it.

Brothers by The Black Keys
Jan 21 2025

Good album with some nice hits.

The Gilded Palace Of Sin by The Flying Burrito Brothers
Jan 22 2025

Terribly boring in that it was the same song over and over.

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
Jan 23 2025

The topics blended together (sex, gang life, poverty, etc.) and got redundant after a while. I did like the beats which helped bring up the rating.

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly
Jan 24 2025

One song is not enough to save this album. The songs are all the same (even their hit).

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Jan 27 2025

The strength of her voice carried the album but the songs themselves blended together.

Imagine by John Lennon
Jan 28 2025

It’s John Lennon but it wasn’t that great.

System Of A Down by System Of A Down
Jan 29 2025

The vocals were great but the songs blended together.

21 by Adele

Great vocals and awesome hits. You can’t go wrong!

Gentlemen by The Afghan Whigs

It wasn’t anything special - 90s rock.

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Feb 10 2025

It was nothing special - songs didn’t hit.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Feb 11 2025

Great album with tons of hits!

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Feb 12 2025

It’s ok - some uniqueness is not enough to make up for sameness.

S&M by Metallica
Feb 13 2025

Metallica - ‘nuff said.

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Feb 17 2025

Pleasantly pop-ey from Radiohead.

Eagles by Eagles
Feb 18 2025

Boring with all the songs sounding the same

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Feb 20 2025

Janis Joplin’s vocals carried this or else everything would have blended together.

Feb 26 2025

Apr 01 2025

It was a good album with great hits.

Suede by Suede
Apr 03 2025

Super boring late 80s English pop.

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Apr 09 2025

It had some good hits and was good to hear early Verve.

Oedipus Schmoedipus by Barry Adamson
Apr 10 2025

It was interesting with the different genres mixed in. But, I wanted more ear candy.

Apr 11 2025

It was good but all the songs blended together. I had higher hopes.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Apr 16 2025

It was good but I had higher expectations.

Apr 23 2025

Great album with a deceptively good amount of hits.

Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Apr 24 2025

It was experimental but all kind of fell flat.

Autobahn by Kraftwerk
Apr 25 2025

It got a bit intriguing, but not to save itself from being so repetitive.

Iron Maiden by Iron Maiden
Apr 29 2025

It was a solid effort with some good songs.

Bubble And Scrape by Sebadoh
Apr 30 2025

It was pretty boring. Nothing much to write about.

I See A Darkness by Bonnie "Prince" Billy
May 08 2025

It was ok, but nothing crazy.

Bad by Michael Jackson
May 13 2025

It's one of his best albums so I need to rate it 5 stars. I'm not going to comment on the artist himself.

Forever Changes by Love
May 15 2025

Boring album - songs all sound the same

It was alright but nothing great.

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
May 21 2025

This one was better than the other albums by them.

Heroes by David Bowie
May 23 2025

Ok album but totally morphed into something at the end. Kind of odd to do such a radical change.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Jun 02 2025

It was pretty good but only had a few high points - not enough to save it.

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Jun 03 2025

Pretty good but did get a bit monotonous.

Sheet Music by 10cc

It has some interesting moments but wasn’t enough to really save the album.

It was a solid Miles Davis album.

Graceland by Paul Simon
Jul 03 2025

It was ok - nothing special.
