Popular Reviews

Oar by Alexander 'Skip' Spence

This is the kind of album I wanna find in doing this thing — never heard of it and never would have known it existed. And instead now I have and it was awesome

Disintegration by The Cure

The Cure’s best album imo. Great from beginning to end.

Purple Rain by Prince

Computer Blue was awesome and I was unaware of its existence — radio songs are all all-time bangers. Easy 5

Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt

0.0 — total dogshit

The Real Thing by Faith No More

No bad tracks. Wasn’t overly familiar beyond a couple songs — and Epic is the only one I knew well. Extremely good stuff

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Jan 20 2025

Awesome — Three Hours is a perfect fit for a movie montage.

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
Jan 23 2025

Leaving the 1 star open for the truly terrible — but this sucked. Child in Time truly excruciating. Boooo

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Jan 26 2025

Unexpected awesomeness. When I saw an hour and a half of 8 minute long Icelandic music I did not expect it to be the best thing I’ve listened to in a while.

Jan 27 2025

I’d give this 3.5 if I could — 60s harmonies are always excellent. I liked it overall but feel like I’ve gotta be into it to go 4 or higher

Marquee Moon by Television
Jan 28 2025

Guitars throughout are awesome. 70s punk banger I was completely unaware of and enjoyed thoroughly

D by White Denim
Jan 29 2025

Guiding Light is an excellent song. Up and downs w this — kinda lost me when it got a little too Phish-y. But some definite high points as well.

Sound Affects by The Jam
Jan 30 2025

Middle of the road for me. Would like to give it a 2.5 instead of 3. Monday was a good song.

Timeless by Goldie
Jan 31 2025

Wish I could vote zero stars.

Feb 01 2025

It’s a 3.5 that i can’t rate that way, so I’ll give it a 3. Listened to a couple tracks multiple times after the first run through. After Hours and Youthful Expression are the standouts for me

Legalize It by Peter Tosh
Feb 02 2025

Middle of the road again today — enjoyable but nothing too exciting. Reggae always good to nod ya head to

Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones
Feb 04 2025

I’d like to rate it 3.75 but rounded up because the songs that hit, hit very hard. But there’s way too many meh songs and the excellence of the good ones get washed out overall. Overall enjoyed it

Feb 05 2025

Tightest rhythm section I’ve heard in a minute and the songs all groove insanely hard. Excellent throughout

Nowhere by Ride
Feb 06 2025

It’s a 2.5 but I’ll give it a 3 cuz I enjoyed the vibes until they wore me out after the first few songs. If you love 90s guitar effects this is the record for you

E.V.O.L. by Sonic Youth
Feb 07 2025

Not a 1 star but not good at all. Boring and plodding. Yawwwwwn

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Feb 08 2025

2.5. Boring boomer shit as per usual.

Out of Step by Minor Threat
Feb 09 2025

Hardcore straight edge noise ain’t for me. No hate just nothing to hang my hat on here

Here Are the Sonics by The Sonics
Feb 10 2025

Kinda reminds me of Paul Revere & the Raiders but with often messy production value. Middle of the road for me. I’d give it a 2.75 if I could

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Feb 11 2025

Truly one of the best albums of all time. Thriller into Beat It into Billie Jean is untouchable

Disintegration by The Cure
Feb 12 2025

The Cure’s best album imo. Great from beginning to end.

Gris Gris by Dr. John
Feb 13 2025

Had it at 3.5 but bumped it to 4 on another listen. Nothing here is excellent but it’s solid and the vibes are always cool and his voice rules imo

Kala by M.I.A.
Feb 14 2025

3 songs were good. The rest were trash. No bueno

High Violet by The National
Feb 17 2025

Boring meandering repetitive pretentious. No bueno

Purple Rain by Prince
Feb 18 2025

Computer Blue was awesome and I was unaware of its existence — radio songs are all all-time bangers. Easy 5

The Real Thing by Faith No More
Feb 19 2025

No bad tracks. Wasn’t overly familiar beyond a couple songs — and Epic is the only one I knew well. Extremely good stuff

Shaka Zulu by Ladysmith Black Mambazo
Feb 20 2025

Very pleasantly surprised how much this got me in the feels. Rain, Rain, Beatiful Rain multiple times today. Feels good

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye
Feb 22 2025

3.5 —perfect baby making music but i don’t think I’d sit down and listen to this whole album outside of that scenario. It’s not bad but I went from a 4 to a 3.5 from ear fatigue

Tres Hombres by ZZ Top
Feb 23 2025

All bangers and I’m kinda shook I didn’t know this was as good as it is. Easy 5 stars

Fred Neil by Fred Neil
Feb 26 2025

Borrrrrrrinnnnngggfg

The Modern Dance by Pere Ubu
Feb 27 2025

Weird on purpose. But I fucked w it. Laughing and Sentimental Journey are both awful but the good stuff is really good

Larks' Tongues In Aspic by King Crimson
Feb 28 2025

Not for everyone but these a lot of cool riffs in this. I dug it

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Mar 01 2025

3.5 — enjoyable but I wear out easy on reggae

Oar by Alexander 'Skip' Spence
Mar 02 2025

This is the kind of album I wanna find in doing this thing — never heard of it and never would have known it existed. And instead now I have and it was awesome

4.5

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Mar 12 2025

3.5 mostly meh w a couple good songs

Fun House by The Stooges
Mar 14 2025

Iggy the most underrated front man ever

Gasoline Alley by Rod Stewart
Mar 16 2025

Real bad — “Only a Hobo” was noteworthy in its cringyness

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Mar 18 2025

2.5 — didn’t enjoy much but I love Dolly so it’s rounded up

War by U2
Mar 21 2025

Surprisingly into this one

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Mar 22 2025
Suicide by Suicide
Mar 24 2025

Weird but fun

Aja by Steely Dan
Mar 25 2025

2.5 — would never put it on for fun but the musicianship is strong throughout. Feels like some uncle’s garage jams

Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt
Mar 26 2025

0.0 — total dogshit

Raw Like Sushi by Neneh Cherry
Mar 27 2025
