Hot Fuss by The Killers
Jan 13 2025

Everything kinda ran together for me. Shoutout to Mr. Brightside, Somebody Told Me, and Glamorous Indie Rock & Roll for being my faves on this album.

Nevermind by Nirvana
Jan 14 2025

Idk if it was my mood or what but this album hit in the beginning. However, it quickly got too scream-y for me.

Jan 15 2025

This was perfect to listen to to drown out the sound of my neighbors taking out his frustrations with a hammer through construction. Better than his new baby I guess? In all seriousness I actually liked this one and would listen again.

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
Jan 16 2025

I feel like i would’ve loved this if i listened to it as an angsty teen.

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Jan 17 2025

I liked the music, not the lyrics.

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
Jan 22 2025

This was fun! I’ve been singing changes for like 24 hours now.

Van Halen by Van Halen
Jan 28 2025

I didn’t mind this, especially in the beginning. Not my thing but I can understand why it’s on here.

Chore of Enchantment by Giant Sand
Jan 29 2025

Okay not a fan of his voice but sometimes there were really cool music arrangements that I liked and then they’d be ruined imo by some crazy sound. I hypothesize Alex likes this album or will at minimum listen to it twice lol

Hail To the Thief by Radiohead
Jan 30 2025

Not really my thing but I didn’t hate it. It felt very long though. I liked There, there and A Wolf at the Door

Central Reservation by Beth Orton
Jan 31 2025

I’ve liked this more than most things listened to on this journey. Stars seem to weep was probably my favorite.

Live And Dangerous by Thin Lizzy
Feb 03 2025

It was a rock album. It sounded like all others to me.

Ill Communication by Beastie Boys
Feb 04 2025

“Eat a Scooby Snack and take a disco nap” makes me want to rate this a 5 Sounds like white RunDMC but they’re still using the N word? The 90’s man, what a time.

The Rise & Fall by Madness
Feb 05 2025

I didn’t mind this. It was kinda funky, but sometimes got circus-y and that was too much for me

Floodland by Sisters Of Mercy
Feb 07 2025

Why does this sound like an 80’s rock twilight soundtrack? It’s vampy

Hot Buttered Soul by Isaac Hayes
Feb 10 2025

I do not understand why this is on here

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Feb 11 2025

This felt like classic 60’s music. Cry to me is always a jam.

Fun House by The Stooges
Feb 12 2025

A little too much grunting and screaming for my taste

Siembra by Willie Colón & Rubén Blades
Feb 14 2025

This was my favorite one so far!

In Utero by Nirvana
Feb 18 2025

I got two songs in. It was all I needed to know.

Junkyard by The Birthday Party
Feb 20 2025

No!

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues
Feb 24 2025

The first half was definitely better but overall a good album! Sekou Oumarou was my fav

The Stranger by Billy Joel
Feb 26 2025

Moving on and the stranger were bops as well as many others. This is one of the first ones where I’m like yeah I’ll listen again!

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club
Feb 27 2025

Didn’t knock my socks off but it was good to listen to! Fun beats and you could really hear the instruments by themselves and in harmony. I liked Dos Gardenias.

Crazysexycool by TLC
Feb 28 2025

Relationships and sex from a female perspective… so excited to hear the boys take on this one 😉 Not something I’d usually listen to but I appreciate it for what it is and what it represented especially in the 90’s - a sex positive album. However I don’t know that I personally need an entire album about sex from a male or female perspective lol. I really like the actual music of this album and how it blends rock, jazz, r and b. Also waterfalls in an incredible song and I will hear no other opinion. Switch and Somethin wicked this way comes were also so great what a way to end the album. I hope we all feel closer after listening to this sexy album together ❤️

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Mar 03 2025

I thought this album was boring musically but the lyrics were beautiful. I would have to give it another listen.

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Mar 04 2025

I don’t think I like The Beach Boys

Debut by Björk
Mar 10 2025
