Raw Power by The Stooges
Jan 24 2025

This was probably something great in a live venue, but did not land well via laptop speakers mid-Monday

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Jan 27 2025

Would have given 3.5 in comparison to similar things I like, however, I'll let it have a 4 because I didn't turn it off

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Jan 28 2025
Hot Fuss by The Killers
Jan 30 2025

Absolutely not a fan of "indie man bands" so a reluctant 4, again, because I "get it" and it was better content-wise than the prior album, which I gave a 3.

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs
Jan 31 2025

I liked this... Easy listening and inoffensive, however, it didn't excite me and is very "background friendly"

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Feb 05 2025

Would have been a 4 if it were a live performance, I'm sure

The Undertones by The Undertones
Feb 07 2025

Probs deserves a 3 - but looking at my previous 3 scores, it just didn't land as well with me nor excite me.

Doolittle by Pixies
Feb 11 2025

To be fair, the 2nd half was more tolerable, so should get a 2.5, but here we are...

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
Feb 14 2025

Another case of first track being the best, but I have to give a 3 because they're better than the Pixies, which I gave a 2.

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Feb 17 2025

Nice, easy listening, but didn't instil any strong emotions. Not exciting or unique.

Purple Rain by Prince
Feb 18 2025

Haven't found a Prince album I wouldn't give a 5 star

69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields
Feb 19 2025

Getting 3 stars only due to the 'creativity'. It's interesting.... Wouldn't listen to this again, not for me.

Feb 20 2025

2 probs isn't fair as it was harmless rather than offensive, but ultimately forgot I was even listening to anything...

High Violet by The National
Feb 21 2025

Probs deserves a 3 but ultimately blended into the background as mush as yesterday's did, so here we are...

Moving Pictures by Rush
Feb 25 2025

Fun, but ultimately wouldn't replay this, and in comparison to other albums in this genre, just not quite making the 4. Would give 3.5 though

Hypnotised by The Undertones
Feb 26 2025

Harmless rock but not exciting. Would do a 3.5 buuuuut.

Alien Lanes by Guided By Voices
Feb 27 2025

Not bad, but not as engaging as the other 3s

Tank Battles by Dagmar Krause
Mar 05 2025

+1 star for some of the longer tracks and native tongue ones, which transported me to some wartime musical, and they aren't out of place there!

Parachutes by Coldplay
Mar 11 2025

Whilst I can't deny their popularity, and some lyrical and musical elements are great... the vocalist's dreary tone is too much of a nail in the coffin for me. If I was depressed, Coldplay would be what finished me off.

Roots by Sepultura
Mar 14 2025

I don't dislike the genre, but this isn't the best example of it.
