Popular Reviews

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone

Pure soul. So much passion and power. Nina was, and will always be, one of the all time greats. Not much more to say.

Out of Step by Minor Threat

A lot going on, I was overwhelmed. Speedy, snappy, and aggressive. Why so much shouting? Not a tuneful melody in sight. Not my thing personally, too hardcore lol. Glad it was short.

Rust In Peace by Megadeth

So fast-paced, I felt like I needed to rush to go somewhere. Annoying vocals, reminded me of cartoon characters. Too loud, and a lot of the songs sounded very similar. Not my vibe. I need to take a break from the noise.

Be by Common

Raw and powerful lyrics. I enjoy the gospel elements and funky/jazzy moments. A lot of repetitive instrumentals and looped samples, which is typical of rap albums but still annoying at times lol.

All Ratings (240)

We Are Family by Sister Sledge
Feb 07 2025

Makes me want to get up and move. Full of soul and rhythm. Those family harmonies are tight.

The Gershwin Songbook by Ella Fitzgerald
Feb 08 2025

Jazzy and soulful. Ella’s voice is so smooth, rich, and colourful. She really knows how to tell a story with her vocals. Her vibrato is delightful. Felt like I was in a posh jazz bar sipping a cocktail.

Led Zeppelin IV by Led Zeppelin
Feb 09 2025

Not the genre I’d usually listen to, but I appreciate the catchy guitar riffs and gritty vocals. And of course Stairway to Heaven is iconic.

Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz
Feb 10 2025

I don’t know if it’s because my frontal lobe is now fully developed, but I’m starting to enjoy jazz. So smooth and soft.

Debut by Björk
Feb 11 2025

Original, eclectic, sometimes nonsensical. There is nobody like Björk. Her music reflects her creativity and her unique, poetic mind. I love the clarity and rasp in her voice, they both balance each other out well.

Arular by M.I.A.
Feb 12 2025

Wacky and wild. Bizarre beats. Repetitive. Weird vibes, but I appreciate how different it is. Don’t think I need to listen to this again, once is enough lol.

Rattus Norvegicus by The Stranglers
Feb 13 2025

I often find punk rock overstimulating and aggressive. Like why are you so loud, and do you have anger issues? Not even singing in tune most of the time, and I don’t care for the unnecessarily long instrumentals. Also the lyrics are very questionable.

Basket of Light by Pentangle
Feb 14 2025

Oddly whimsical. Floaty falsetto. Makes me want to gather round a campfire with friends and chant and prance around.

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Feb 15 2025

Classic country. Dolly’s a great storyteller. Poetic and meaningful lyrics. I love her sweet, soulful voice. It’s tender, yet powerful.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Feb 16 2025

The Beatles will always be groundbreaking and iconic. Not much more to say.

Private Dancer by Tina Turner
Feb 17 2025

Funky, groovy, soulful. I love Tina’s powerful, raspy voice. Her lower register and higher register are equally strong.

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
Feb 18 2025

Such a vibe. Funky and groovy, but also expressive and emotional. Really enjoyed this. Had me up and dancing. Love Marvin’s smooth, soulful voice. Also love the background harmonies/adlibs and jazzy instrumentals. Gospel energy. Meaningful lyrics.

Out of Step by Minor Threat
Feb 19 2025

A lot going on, I was overwhelmed. Speedy, snappy, and aggressive. Why so much shouting? Not a tuneful melody in sight. Not my thing personally, too hardcore lol. Glad it was short.

Actually by Pet Shop Boys
Feb 20 2025

Some wacky, random instrumentals. Fun though. Vocals are a bit… flat? Monotone and repetitive. Wish I could have experienced clubbing in the 80s. Probs would have liked this album more if I was older.

Homework by Daft Punk
Feb 21 2025

Bizarre in an endearing way. Repetitive in an annoying way. A couple cool beats, but won’t need to listen to this twice.

Van Halen by Van Halen
Feb 22 2025

This album surprised me. I like the catchy guitar riffs and layered harmonies in the background. Also the fact that there’s an actual tune and melody (as opposed to just loud noise lol). Also appreciate that the songs aren’t too long or repetitive.

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Feb 23 2025

Felt like listening to a musical. Mostly intriguing, sometimes weird. The Beatles vibes. Great storytelling. Love the folk instrumentals and harmonies. Also the album cover looks like Ben Platt and Jonathan Groff lol.

Rio by Duran Duran
Feb 24 2025

Classic 80s synth pop. Catchy tunes. Not the best vocals but a unique sound.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Feb 25 2025

Noisy. Constantly sounds like Jack’s voice is gonna break any second. Which isn’t surprising as he’s always shouting. Also sounds out of tune most of the time. Some catchy riffs and melodies, and a few mellow/quieter moments. Glad the songs are all quite short.

Feb 26 2025

Man some of these songs are looong. Haven’t heard much like this before though. Refreshing perspective. Some unique sounds and beats, and funky samples. Found it to be monotonous at times, and the lyrics didn’t always make sense/rhymes were a bit odd lol.

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Feb 27 2025

This album surprised me. Has a bluesy and sometimes Western feel. Don’t really care for the vocals but liked how each song was really telling a story with the lyrics. Interesting and catchy instrumentals.

Phrenology by The Roots
Feb 28 2025

High energy, rhythmic flow. I like the pace. Loud though lol, bit much at times. Passionate lyrics, sometimes questionable. Eclectic instrumentals and wacky, weird beats.

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Mar 01 2025

Messy and monotonous. Sounds quite grating. Strange instrumentals. Not a fan of the nasally, sloppy vocals. Weird lyrics too lol.

Django Django by Django Django
Mar 02 2025

Unlike anything else I’ve heard so far. Uniquely intriguing. Was hooked from the introduction. Big fan of the funky instrumentals and dissonant harmonies. Such a groovy, jungle-like vibe. Also has a nostalgic, dreamy feel that reminds me of summer.

Younger Than Yesterday by The Byrds
Mar 03 2025

Funky, upbeat. The Beatles vibes sometimes. I like the harmonies. Some odd instrumentals and sounds.

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Mar 04 2025

Seem ahead of their time. Nonsensical, poetic lyrics. Fresh perspective. Fun instrumentals. Eclectic, creative feel. Soulful elements. I like how distinctive this is.

Time (The Revelator) by Gillian Welch
Mar 05 2025

Chill vibes. Love the harmonies. I like Gillian’s smooth but powerful vocals. She seems like an old soul. Appreciate the slower paced songs, makes me want to ponder my life. The more upbeat songs are fun, I like the twangy instrumentals. Bit repetitive and long at times.

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
Mar 06 2025

Love how colourful this album is. Soulful and funky. Such a unique, fun sound. Coconut is wild but I lowkey live for it. Kinda getting Paul Simon vibes.

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs
Mar 07 2025

Dreamy. Really love the vibes. Can imagine playing this album in the summer, chilling in a car with the roof down, feeling the warm breeze. Love the production. Groovy beats. Cool synths. The melodies are so nice to listen to. Kinda giving a cross between Bob Dylan and Sam Fender. Songs are long but I don’t mind that, they keep me hooked. I will listen to this again.

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Mar 09 2025

Can’t beat the harmonies and that tight-knit sound. Funky, groovy. Revolutionary.

Mar 10 2025

This album is okay. Classic rhythm and blues. Soulful. I like his husky, gritty voice. Most of the songs are very short. The screaming was a bit distracting.

Bryter Layter by Nick Drake
Mar 11 2025

Pleasant to listen to. Folky and jazzy. Light and airy. I like the orchestral sections too. Poetic lyrics and smooth vocals. Makes me want to go for a walk in the forest. I can imagine some of these songs in a movie soundtrack.

Gold by Ryan Adams
Mar 12 2025

This is okay. Bit slow, bit monotonous. Some cool instrumentals though. Decent voice but can be quite grating at times lol. Most of the songs are too looong.

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Mar 13 2025

I LOVE old school rhythm and blues. So much soul and passion. I love that the vocals are soft and smooth, yet gritty and powerful. The background harmonies are great. Catchy guitar riffs.

Mar 14 2025

Their accents make everything funnier, can’t take it seriously. A lot of it is just talking. Too much repetition. I don’t like this album. Not much more to say haha.

Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine
Mar 15 2025

A lot of shouting, a lot of repetition. Too long, loud and aggressive for me. Some of the guitar melodies are cool though.

Mar 16 2025

Some bangers. Classic, catchy tunes. I like the melodies and husky vocals. Powerful lyrics.

Third by Portishead
Mar 17 2025

A whole lot of randomness. The clashing sounds and odd melodies are off-putting. The minor chords are somewhat haunting. Soft vocals, but harsher/grating instrumentals. Also why are the vocals so often out of tune?

Be by Common
Mar 18 2025

Raw and powerful lyrics. I enjoy the gospel elements and funky/jazzy moments. A lot of repetitive instrumentals and looped samples, which is typical of rap albums but still annoying at times lol.

Real Life by Magazine
Mar 19 2025

The vocals are often annoying and out of tune lol. Some wacky sounds. Kind of futuristic. Strange. Bit repetitive. Also the songs are too long.

Let It Be by The Replacements
Mar 20 2025

Don’t hate it but also don’t love it. Upbeat, high energy. Sometimes the shouting is a bit much. Some cool guitar riffs. Appreciate the lyrics of ‘Androgynous’ - definitely ahead of its time.

Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury by The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy
Mar 21 2025

Woah a lot going on. Instrumentals are crazy and distracting. Questionable flow (a lot of just talking) and repetitive verses. Most of the lyrics don’t really make sense. The songs are looong.

xx by The xx
Mar 22 2025

I like the chilled vibes and slower pace. Makes a change. The guitar is catchy and fun. Vocals seem a bit flat / lack depth though.

Eagles by Eagles
Mar 23 2025

Liked this more than I thought I would lol. Combo of rock, country and soul. Upbeat and lively but also mellow. I love the melodies, harmonies, and backing vocals. Cool lyrics. Also the songs are a good length, not too long.

Want Two by Rufus Wainwright
Mar 24 2025

Strange but endearing. Not sure how to feel about it all to be honest. Some of the songs are looong, and the vocals are quite drawn out and whiny. Would have been cool to have more riffs instead of mostly straight tones. Some fun instrumentals and backing vocals. Some dissonant harmonies which I enjoy. Kinda reminds me of a musical.

In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Mar 25 2025

This was okay. Nice to have it just playing in the background. Felt like not much was going on, was just building up to something and never reached the peak.

Street Signs by Ozomatli
Mar 26 2025

I could only access one song for some reason, but it was unlike anything else I’ve heard. Fresh perspective. Spanish is a pretty language to listen to. I’m getting some Middle Eastern vibes from the vocals and production. The rapping is cool, nice flow.

Superfuzz Bigmuff by Mudhoney
Mar 27 2025

Sounds messy and noisy. Too loud, too much shouting. I’m overstimulated. Don’t like the nasally, whiny vocals. Not for me.

Elastica by Elastica
Mar 28 2025

Bit strange but also a slay. I like the expressive vocals. Lyrics can be quite crude but also fun.

Station To Station by David Bowie
Mar 29 2025

Went on a whole journey. An eclectic mix of styles. Funky and unique. Bowie is his own genre. He knows how to tell a story. Full of soul. Felt like a musical. Quite a bit of repetition though.

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan
Mar 30 2025

Classic, unique. I appreciate the poetic lyrics. Nasal, gritty vocals. Somewhat grating.

Rust In Peace by Megadeth
Mar 31 2025

So fast-paced, I felt like I needed to rush to go somewhere. Annoying vocals, reminded me of cartoon characters. Too loud, and a lot of the songs sounded very similar. Not my vibe. I need to take a break from the noise.

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Apr 01 2025

Chilled, soulful vibes. A lot of the songs sounded similar, but flowed well together. Tracy tells a good story. ‘Fast Car’ is obviously iconic.

La Revancha Del Tango by Gotan Project
Apr 02 2025

These are some looong songs. I can imagine some of them as part of a movie soundtrack. Not my fave, but definitely different to a lot of other stuff I’ve heard.

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Apr 03 2025

Expected this to be country, but it’s more like hippie soul/rock. Repetitive but not too boring. Feel a bit like I’m in a trance. If I went to a musical festival and they were there, I’d be intrigued and stay for a couple songs, but not for the whole set.

Ray Of Light by Madonna
Apr 04 2025

A looong album. Not my fave but also didn’t hate it. I like how it was experimental and some of the pop elements were fun. I think Madonna has better albums though.

Nevermind by Nirvana
Apr 05 2025

Smells Like Teen Spirit is iconic of course. I like Kurt’s harsh, gritty vocals. So much personality and colour. Some catchy guitar riffs and sick drums. Sometimes a bit repetitive. Some strange lyrics lol.

Apr 06 2025

A unique, raspy voice. I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. A fusion of rock, folk, and soul.

White Light / White Heat by The Velvet Underground
Apr 07 2025

Eclectic, random. A bunch of noise. A couple cool instrumentals, but some really annoying, piercing sounds that were distracting. Grating vocals.

Raw Power by The Stooges
Apr 08 2025

Iggy’s voice can be oddly soft and bright, but it can also be gritty and harsh. A lot of personality. Some catchy guitar riffs. Not my fave, but definitely unique.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Apr 09 2025

Pure soul. So much passion and power. Nina was, and will always be, one of the all time greats. Not much more to say.

Rocks by Aerosmith
Apr 10 2025

Steven’s voice is crazy, sounds like it must constantly hurt, I don’t know how he hasn’t completely lost it by now. Some catchy beats and guitar riffs.

Blur by Blur
Apr 11 2025

A mid album for me. There are some bangers, and some I’d skip past. Definitely some catchy tunes though.

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Apr 12 2025

Dreamy and strong. Unique and edgy. Some cool vocals and instrumentals.

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan
Apr 13 2025

Lively and funky. I like the harmonies and groovy instrumentals. A classic feel like a musical.

Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear
Apr 14 2025

Cool vibe. Different to what I’d usually listen to. New perspective. Smooth vocals and funky instrumentals. Upbeat, with powerful lyrics.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Apr 15 2025

Funky. More jazzy and bluesy than I thought it would be. Enjoy the lively instrumentals and tempo. Harsh vocals that are sometimes grating, but suit the genre. Rough and powerful.

The Colour Of Spring by Talk Talk
Apr 16 2025

Songs are looong and quite drawn out. Slow tempo but also lively. Pretty chill throughout, no big beat drops. Some wacky instrumentals.

John Prine by John Prine
Apr 17 2025

Great storyteller. Reminds me of Dolly. So country. Some of the rhymes were funny and clever. Not usually my fave genre, but I enjoyed listening to something different.

Dig Me Out by Sleater-Kinney
Apr 18 2025

Noisy. Vocals are quite shrill and grating. Repetitive instrumentals and lyrics.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Apr 19 2025

Jazz is intriguing and somewhat chaotic. I like that it doesn’t follow the rules. Good to have on in the background. Take Five is my fave track.

Murmur by R.E.M.
Apr 20 2025

Repetitive. Cohesive, but a lot sounded very similar. Catchy choruses. Pleasant to listen to but not the most memorable.

More Specials by The Specials
Apr 21 2025

Feels like a fever dream. Makes me want to go on holiday. Reggae vibes. A bit all over the place. Monotonous, whiny vocals that don’t really match the rhythmic, funky instrumentals.

Apr 22 2025

Progressive. Before it’s time. Powerful, poetic lyrics. Some unusual instrumentals. Sonically intriguing.

The Sun Rises In The East by Jeru The Damaja
Apr 23 2025

What’s with these fuck ass beats and odd flows lol. I feel like they used long words because they thought it would be impressive, but most of these lyrics don’t really make sense. Also they’re definitely misogynistic.

Ogden's Nut Gone Flake by Small Faces
Apr 24 2025

The Beatles vibes. Soulful, psychedelic sound. This would be cool to listen to while high. Fun and energetic. Quirky, odd storytelling. Typically British, which I love.

Apr 25 2025

Sick production. I feel hyped. Futuristic and powerful. I like the resonant, strong vocals. A solid, cohesive album. Enjoyed this more than I thought I would.

Apr 26 2025

Classic folk. I can’t believe Bob was only 22 when he released this album. He has an old soul and such a mature, gravelly voice. A lot of personality and a good storyteller. Most of the songs sound a bit samey though. And that harmonica is definitely… loud.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Apr 27 2025

Groovy, funky, full of soul. Passionate and lively. Obviously iconic.

Blackstar by David Bowie
Apr 28 2025

Never really understood the hype. Feels like I’m in space. A few funky, futuristic sounds but kind of odd. Not very cohesive and the songs are long and dragged out.

Is This It by The Strokes
Apr 29 2025

Some cool tunes. I can imagine most of these songs being in a movie soundtrack. Gritty vocals and catchy guitar riffs. Sound is consistent throughout but can get quite repetitive and monotonous.

Halcyon Digest by Deerhunter
Apr 30 2025

Some looong songs but I don’t even hate it because the album was a vibe. Obviously indie. Would be cool to listen to while high. Quite repetitive but felt like listening to mantras. Definitely interesting to listen to.

Heroes to Zeros by The Beta Band
May 01 2025

Liked this more than I thought I would. Eclectic, unique sound. Cool production. Interesting to listen to. I like the dreamy, echoey vocals too. Quite repetitive though, and not very cohesive.

May 02 2025

Different to what I’d usually listen to. Odd instrumentals. Vocals are repetitive and equally as weird. Looong songs.

I Should Coco by Supergrass
May 03 2025

Fun, upbeat album. ‘Alright’ is iconic. Bright and playful. Classic Brit sound. Gritty vocals.

Southern Rock Opera by Drive-By Truckers
May 04 2025

Country rock is fun and upbeat. Most songs sounded the same though, not much variety.

A Hard Day's Night by Beatles
May 05 2025

Big fan of the tight harmonies and soulful elements. The Beatles are obviously iconic and have so many catchy songs.

Hot Fuss by The Killers
May 06 2025

Some absolute bangers. A great, solid album. Mr Brightside might as well be the UK’s national anthem.

Will The Circle Be Unbroken by Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
May 07 2025

This is so country it’s almost comical. Seems like a different language. They sure love their strings. A lot sounds the same. Don’t hate this album, it’s just not my fave. And way too long.

Murder Ballads by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
May 08 2025

Haunting and depressing. Reminds me of spoken word poetry, but not very tuneful or rhythmic. Rather strange and random. Too long. Not my thing.

The Nightfly by Donald Fagen
May 09 2025

Was not expecting these jazzy vibes. Expressive, colourful vocals. I love the dissonant harmonies and layered backing vocals. Soulful. Reminds me of a musical and makes me want to dance. The songs are long but not boring.

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
May 10 2025

Powerful, introspective lyrics. Dreamy yet strong vocals. The instrumentals are so catchy too. I can imagine most of these songs being in a coming-of-age movie. Felt quite uplifting, like worship music lol. Really like this album.

Buffalo Springfield Again by Buffalo Springfield
May 11 2025

Seems like each song could be on a different album. Eclectic mixture of sounds. Made me want to dance and cry simultaneously.

Parklife by Blur
May 12 2025

Vocals are so nasal and grating, but typically British. Annoyingly catchy. Playful lyrics.

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
May 13 2025

Eerie vibes. ‘I Want You Now’ is straight up creepy. Some cool synths but all sounds a bit samey. Monotone vocals. Too long, got a bit bored.

Roger the Engineer by The Yardbirds
May 14 2025

Bit random and strange. A lot sounded the same. Songs are quite short but there are a lot of them. Good to just put on in the background, but not my fave.

Lazer Guided Melodies by Spiritualized
May 15 2025

Sounds like I thought it would. Hypnotic, psychedelic. Simultaneously soothes me and wakes me up. Makes me want to meditate and zone out. A lot going on but I don’t mind it, it’s quite cool actually.

Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
May 16 2025

A bunch of mismatched, jumbled sounds and concepts that don’t flow and seem nonsensical. Unpleasant to listen to. Not my thing.

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
May 17 2025

An intriguing fusion of jazz and electronic. Groovy. Good to have on as background music.

Devil Without A Cause by Kid Rock
May 19 2025

A crossover of rap and rock, quite a cool concept. The songs are long and loud. Questionable lyrics.

Brothers by The Black Keys
May 20 2025

Groovy, bright sound. I like the soulful vocals and funky instrumentals. They’re like the American version of the Arctic Monkeys mixed with Hozier.

Done By The Forces Of Nature by Jungle Brothers
May 21 2025

Meh. Some powerful lyrics, some questionable lyrics. Just a bit odd, weird flow and beats. Chaotic and too long, kinda zoned out after a while.

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
May 22 2025

Full of soul and power. Funky and groovy. Smooth. Rich vocals. Classic blues.

Floodland by Sisters Of Mercy
May 23 2025

Low, gravelly vocals and operatic backing vocals. Quite haunting. Strong, punchy instrumentals. Different to what I’ve heard before which is refreshing.

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
May 24 2025

Groovy, rhythmic. Long af with some impressive guitar riffs. Zoned out after a while and everything started to sound similar.

Transformer by Lou Reed
May 25 2025

Mid vocals, like speak-singing. Doesn’t really match the funky instrumentals. Simultaneously calm and energetic. Some weird lyrics. Feels like a fever dream musical.

Os Mutantes by Os Mutantes
May 26 2025

Playfully chaotic and fun. Unlike anything else I’ve heard so far. A melting pot of eclectic and unique sounds and genres.

May 27 2025

Repetitive and annoying. Never really got the hype. Maybe I need to be drunk or high. The only song I can somewhat stand is Praise You.

Take Me Apart by Kelela
May 28 2025

This is so my vibe. Reminds me of Solange, SZA and Banks. Soulful and seductive. Dreamy, smooth vocals and harmonies. Sick beats.

May 29 2025

Can’t really go wrong with Coldplay. Lots of people say they are overrated, but they are talented, have a distinct sound, and know how to make hits. They are great at evoking emotions.

Tical by Method Man
May 30 2025

Some sinister, dissonant beats. Repetitive. Odd mixing, sometimes the instrumentals seem too loud and distract from the vocals. Probs won’t listen to this again.

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness by The Smashing Pumpkins
May 31 2025

This felt like a whole experience. I like the orchestral parts and softer elements. A lot of different styles in one looong album. Some heavy drum beats and crisp guitar riffs. Not really a fan of the nasal, whiny vocals.

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley
Jun 01 2025

Strange in a good way. The title is fitting; it really is happy sad. Quite drawn out and slow, with some wacky instrumentals.

Jun 02 2025

Too aggressive and loud for me. Fast paced. Gravelly, rough vocals. Hurts my ears and probably hurt his throat.

From Elvis In Memphis by Elvis Presley
Jun 03 2025

This is okay, nothing special. Most songs sound similar. I think Elvis is a bit overrated. He sounds like a howling dog sometimes. Such a strong vibrato. Good rhythm though, soulful instrumentals.

Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves
Jun 04 2025

So dreamy and delightful. Kacey’s vocals are so clear and piercing, she has such a pretty tone. Some lovely melodies. The lyrics tell a compelling story.

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Jun 05 2025

Energetic and chirpy. A light, fun classic that you can’t take too seriously.

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Jun 06 2025

Intro was immediately jarring. Bob loves a harmonica. I like it sometimes. Classic southern soul/rock sound.

Jun 07 2025

Not what I’d usually listen to but I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. I like the harmonies (bass goes crazy) and resonant vocals. Seems like an album that a crowd would sing along to. Makes me want to sit around a campfire and sing lol. Great storytelling.

Here Are the Sonics by The Sonics
Jun 08 2025

A harsh but passionate sound. Rough vocals. Soulful instrumentals. High energy, they really went for it.

Moon Safari by Air
Jun 09 2025

I had this on as background music. Quite slow paced. I prefer the songs with lyrics, they seem more interesting to me. A mixture of soft, lullaby-like sounds and futuristic, electronic sounds.

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Jun 10 2025

Blue-eyed soul is fun, great to move to. A whole lot of rhythm. Dusty has an endearing voice. Reminds me of Peggy Lee.

Solid Air by John Martyn
Jun 11 2025

A slow start. An eclectic mix. Jazzy, bluesy, folky. Refreshingly different. Mumbles quite a bit but has a smooth tone.

Dub Housing by Pere Ubu
Jun 12 2025

Loud and attention grabbing. Haven’t heard much like this before and probably won’t need to listen to this again. Not sure how to feel about it. Definitely different and strange.

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Jun 13 2025

A classic. Sounds like a warm hug. Vocals are quite drawn out and dream-like.

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears
Jun 14 2025

Classic. Cool synths. Throaty vocals, not always in tune. Some great songs though, with catchy melodies.

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
Jun 15 2025

Kendrick is a strong rapper with a sick flow. Some thought-provoking lyrics, some questionable lyrics. Cool beats.

Brutal Youth by Elvis Costello
Jun 16 2025

Can imagine most of these songs being in an indie movie. Nasally vocals. Some songs sounds quite similar. Not bad though.

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Jun 17 2025

Nice to have on in the background. I find that most jazz is quite random and all over the place (doesn’t adhere to the typical ‘rules’ of instrumental music) but this is rhythmic and pleasant to listen to.

Madman Across The Water by Elton John
Jun 18 2025

Tiny Dancer is obviously iconic. Don’t really listen to Elton much but he has some strong hits. Impactful. Most songs sound similar, but a cohesive album.

Savane by Ali Farka Touré
Jun 19 2025

I like how intriguing this is. Such a unique sound, a mixture of different cultures. Full of soul and fun to listen to. I feel like I’m in Louisiana but also somewhere in Africa.

Endtroducing..... by DJ Shadow
Jun 20 2025

Repetitive. Lots of samples stuck together. Like getting a glimpse into the diaries of many different people. Don’t know if I love or hate it.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jun 21 2025

Good balance of gritty, high energy songs and melodic ballads. Not bad. Californication is my fave song from the album.

Le Tigre by Le Tigre
Jun 23 2025

Random and strange. Repetitive. At times it sounds like the instrumentals are too loud and they are struggling to be heard over them. Some weird lyricism, some nonsensical. A lot of yelling out of tune, which is annoying.

Bossanova by Pixies
Jun 24 2025

This was okay. A random mix of sounds with strange lyrics. Didn’t really keep my attention. Quite repetitive.

Dear Science by TV On The Radio
Jun 26 2025

Fun and original. Diverse range of instrumentals and unique sounds. Not overly compelling but still cool.

The Chronic by Dr. Dre
Jun 27 2025

Good flow and beats but the lyrics are not it. I really dislike how most rap from the 90s is misogynistic and/or homophobic.

Jun 28 2025

If I were to separate the art from the artist for a sec, this album is very good. Shame he’s so problematic and controversial, as he is actually a talented rapper.

Queens of the Stone Age by Queens Of The Stone Age
Jun 29 2025

Harsh instrumentals and monotone vocals. Lots of repetition. Not particularly memorable.

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Jun 30 2025

Strange and intriguing jazz fusion. Haven’t heard much like this before. Refreshing and somewhat unsettling.

Here's Little Richard by Little Richard
Jul 01 2025

A fun album full of funk and soul. Made me want to dance. I love his raspy, rich voice. His passion shines through.

Sail Away by Randy Newman
Jul 02 2025

Can’t help but think about Disney. Sounds like another Disney soundtrack. I like the soulful/blues elements.

Jul 03 2025

Obviously the title track is iconic. One of my fave songs. Classic synth-pop. Fluid and funky. Bit repetitive though.

On The Beach by Neil Young
Jul 04 2025

Enjoyed this more than I thought I would. Chill and comforting.

Who's Next by The Who
Jul 05 2025

A few catchy classics. Passionate and powerful. Some are less interesting.

The Renaissance by Q-Tip
Jul 06 2025

Surprised at how much I liked this. Kept me engaged throughout. Smooth and hard at the same time. A solid album.

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Jul 07 2025

Not my fave of theirs but still a few bangers. Quite repetitive.

Imagine by John Lennon
Jul 08 2025

Wow people really have strong opinions about this album lol. I found it okay. Kinda depressing and woe is me, but also funky. Odd juxtaposition.

Tarkus by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Jul 09 2025

Random and overstimulating. A lot of conflicting sounds. This was a unique experience but I didn’t really enjoy it much.

Veckatimest by Grizzly Bear
Jul 10 2025

Funky, fresh, unique. This felt like a breath of fresh air. Cool production. I enjoy the harmonies too.

Ctrl by SZA
Jul 11 2025

I love this album. Soulful, smooth, sexy. A bit of fun.

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Jul 12 2025

One minute I’m rocking out, the next I’m dancing, the next I’m taken to church. A mixture of different vibes but all consistently loud.

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Jul 13 2025

Fun party vibes. Intriguing instrumentals, cool production. Kept me hooked. I love discovering different languages and cultures through music.

Kid A by Radiohead
Jul 15 2025

Off-putting vibes but in an intriguing and experimental way. Repetitive but felt like a sort of chant that drew me in. Cool production.

Jul 16 2025

Funky and fun. A rich, colourful sound. Feels like summer and sunshine.

Document by R.E.M.
Jul 17 2025

A solid album. Well produced. Good storytelling. Not particularly memorable for me though.

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Jul 18 2025

I just bloody love Paul Simon. Don’t even know why, I just do.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Jul 19 2025

Reminds me of Bowie and Springsteen. A classic, timeless feeling. Great production, great energy.

Central Reservation by Beth Orton
Jul 20 2025

A bit drawn out and slow, but calming and melodic. Reminds me a bit of Aurora.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Jul 21 2025

Such a talented soul. She was born to be a performer. How grateful I am to have witnessed her special gift.

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
Jul 22 2025

Such a distinctive sound. Theatrical and thrilling. A solid album.

Kala by M.I.A.
Jul 23 2025

I don’t get the hype, soz. Colourful and unique but also chaotic and noisy.

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Jul 24 2025

A classic and I respect it. Rest in peace Ozzy.

The Only Ones by The Only Ones
Jul 25 2025

Cool instrumentals! But annoying, whiny vocals that I can’t get past lol.

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
Jul 26 2025

Gives me Arctic Monkeys / The Libertines vibes with The Beatles-esque harmonies. Classic Brit rock sound.

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Jul 27 2025

Well that definitely wasn’t boring. A lot going on. Made me feel like I was in a movie. I like the theatrical vibes and dreamy harmonies. Reminds me of The Beatles and Elton John.

Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Jul 28 2025

Years ago, I had a dream I was riding a golf buggy on the motorway and blasting ‘Highway to Hell.’ Can confirm I’d like to do that in real life too.

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
Jul 29 2025

Bob’s voice has a very distinct tone but it can be quite grating. A lot of his songs sound samey and are very drawn out. Loves the harmonica doesn’t he?

Third/Sister Lovers by Big Star
Jul 30 2025

Warbly, soft vocals. Mixing seems a bit off, some separation. Not my fave but has a dreamy quality which is quite cool.

Marquee Moon by Television
Jul 31 2025

Don’t really get the hype. Some funky instrumentals but annoying vocals. I feel like the 70s was full of cool beats and singers who couldn’t hold a tune.

Odessa by Bee Gees
Aug 01 2025

I expected something really funky and soulful but instead I felt like I was in a weird fever dream.

That's The Way Of The World by Earth, Wind & Fire
Aug 02 2025

This is what funk and soul is about. Makes me want to get up and move. A solid album with delicious harmonies and catchy melodies.

Ten by Pearl Jam
Aug 04 2025

Not really my jam (excuse the pun) but I appreciate the vibes and like some of the guitar riffs.

Cloud Nine by The Temptations
Aug 05 2025

I loved this album. My fave genre. Love the funky vibes. Great harmonies. Raw power and passion. Kept me hooked throughout.

OK by Talvin Singh
Aug 06 2025

Unique crossover that I hadn’t heard of before. A lot going on. First half was intriguing but lost interest a bit towards the end. Too repetitive.

Stripped by Christina Aguilera
Aug 07 2025

Big fan of both pop and R&B so I liked this. Great riffs, cool production, catchy melodies. Her throaty growls and vocals can sometimes be a bit grating but for the most part, I enjoy her tone.

Aug 08 2025

“Hear my voice, hear my voice.” Okay but what if I don’t want to? Definitely prefer the instrumentals and production to the sub-par vocals.

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Aug 09 2025

A lot of five star reviews but I don’t get the hype. Too aggressive, depressing lyrics, kinda scary.

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Aug 10 2025

Cool production and synths. But why the f slur in the second track… :(

Aug 11 2025

Didn’t know what to expect. Felt like I was in a trance for most of it (in a good way). I really like the funky vibes. Reminds me of Stevie Wonder. Some of the jazzy instrumentals are chaotic but I appreciate the unpredictability.

Led Zeppelin II by Led Zeppelin
Aug 12 2025

Funkier than I thought it would be. Not bad. Quite catchy and cool.

Moby Grape by Moby Grape
Aug 13 2025

Really enjoyed this. Funky, feel-good tunes. Tight harmonies. Mix of country, rock, and soul. Very catchy.

Aug 14 2025

The first line “I am a dull and simple lad” sums up men really. Reminded me of The Beatles, just sillier. Not too bad.

Femi Kuti by Femi Kuti
Aug 15 2025

I enjoyed this. Upbeat and interesting. Could really feel the energy. Fun to dance along to.

Mask by Bauhaus
Aug 17 2025

Cool production and unique sound but not really my vibe.

Ellington at Newport by Duke Ellington
Aug 18 2025

Am I slowly becoming a jazz fan? I like it when it doesn’t sound too chaotic. This was nice to have on in the background, I felt civilised.

Queen II by Queen
Aug 19 2025

Queen albums are always an experience. Iconic. Each song feels like 3 different songs in one. Also very theatrical in an endearing way.

Paris 1919 by John Cale
Aug 20 2025

Didn’t really know what to expect. Sounds quite silly and fun. Goofy lyrics. Not too bad, but nothing special.

Sulk by The Associates
Aug 21 2025

Mysterious and experimental. Kind of haunting. Not the worst but probs won’t need to listen to this again.

Midnight Ride by Paul Revere & The Raiders
Aug 22 2025

Classic 60s sound and harmonies. I like the funky vibes of the faster paced songs, and the chilled vibes of the slower paced ones. Quite enjoyable to listen to.

The Next Day by David Bowie
Aug 23 2025

Bowie had his time. I think this album was past that time.

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Aug 24 2025

I just fucking love Stevie Wonder. You can feel his soul shine through his music.

Aug 25 2025

The song titles are cracking me up. The repetitive nature of electronic music gives me a headache, and the songs are so long.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Aug 26 2025

Incredible production. Peaceful and relaxing but also majestic and theatrical. I like the flutters of percussion in the background. Feel a bit like a woodland creature lol, there’s a whimsical element that takes me back to childhood.

All Directions by The Temptations
Aug 27 2025

I have indeed been tempted by The Temptations. They do R&B right.

Medúlla by Björk
Aug 28 2025

Björk is really otherworldly and unique. I respect and admire that.

Grievous Angel by Gram Parsons
Aug 29 2025

Not my thing but go off King.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Aug 30 2025

Janis has a unique, gritty voice. Sometimes too grating/harsh but very passionate. I like the bluesy elements of this album.

Slanted And Enchanted by Pavement
Aug 31 2025

The singer sounds bored and out of tune lol. Not really memorable.

1989 by Taylor Swift
Sep 01 2025

As much as I hate to admit it (because I’m not a Swiftie), this album kinda slaps

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Sep 02 2025

Meh. Tedious. The misogynistic lyrics are not it.

Shake Your Money Maker by The Black Crowes
Sep 03 2025

Liked this more than I thought I would. Catchy riffs, I like the rhythm throughout. Big fan of rock music with singers who can actually hold a tune.

Sep 04 2025

Kinda alarming, kinda off-putting. Feel like a scheming villain. The name ‘Mingus’ really matches the vibe but I don’t know why.

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
Sep 05 2025

This is mostly just noise to me. Rough vocals, those high notes are piercing in an uncomfortable way.

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Sep 06 2025

This is majestic and magical. A refreshing album. Certainly unique. Don’t know the language but felt like I was ascending for most of it.

Planet Rock: The Album by Afrika Bambaataa
Sep 07 2025

So much is happening, it feels like someone put the beats in a blender. I could make better music on GarageBand.

Exile In Guyville by Liz Phair
Sep 08 2025

I can imagine some of these songs being in an indie movie. Sneering voice, monotonous tone. Sounds kinda like Barrett Wilbert Weed? I like the lyrics, makes you think.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Sep 09 2025

Makes me feel like a proper civilised adult. I want to go to a bar and order Jack Daniel’s

Scream, Dracula, Scream by Rocket From The Crypt
Sep 11 2025

Apologies to rock fans but a lot of this just sounds the same to me.

Ghosteen by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Sep 12 2025

Did I just take drugs without knowing? Feel oddly enlightened.

C'est Chic by CHIC
Sep 13 2025

Songs are long and repetitive, but are funky and catchy.

The Score by Fugees
Sep 15 2025

Lauryn Hill takes this album to the next level. Killing Me Softly With His Song is one of the best covers.

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Sep 16 2025

There’s something unnerving about this album, but it’s also intriguing. Goofy ass sounds and playful vocals.

Copper Blue by Sugar
Sep 17 2025

Sounds like if you smushed a bunch of 90s rock albums together. A copycat album. Where is the originality?

Truth by Jeff Beck
Sep 18 2025

Why has Rod always sounded old? Should have retired before he even started.

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
Sep 19 2025

One of Bowie’s best albums in my opinion. I like how it feels like a musical.

Sep 20 2025

Meh. Rap’s not my fave. Some beats are cool but nothing special. Questionable lyrics.

Hms Fable by Shack
Sep 21 2025

A pleasant listen. Mellow. Somewhat boring.

Hypnotised by The Undertones
Sep 22 2025

Quite goofy and weird. Short and snappy songs. Some of the lyrics are creepy…

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Sep 23 2025

Gritty and tough vocals. I appreciate his passion. How does his voice not constantly hurt though? Lol. I like some of the melodies. I know he’s seen as iconic to many people, and this is good, but not my fave.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Sep 24 2025

Haunting vocals, great tone. I like how effortlessly he flows from a whisper to a belt. Lovely falsetto and riffs. He would have been good at ASMR lol.

Back At The Chicken Shack by Jimmy Smith
Sep 25 2025

Nice to put on in the background at home while I pretend to be at a jazz bar (in reality, I’m sat in bed)

Bert Jansch by Bert Jansch
Sep 26 2025

Very good at strumming his guitar, but this wasn’t a particularly memorable album for me.

Arrival by ABBA
Sep 27 2025

10/10, no notes.

The Visitors by ABBA
Oct 02 2025

There’s never a bad time to listen to ABBA. So many bangers. Such good music.

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
Oct 13 2025

Such a unique voice full of emotion. A theatrical quality. I like her vocal cries. Brilliant, introspective songwriting that really tells a story.

The Dreaming by Kate Bush
Oct 15 2025

Theatrical and powerful. Reminds me of Bjork. Definitely unique. A refreshing perspective, albeit quite odd.

Elephant by The White Stripes
Oct 18 2025

Seven Nation Army is iconic. The rest of the album is good.

25 by Adele
Nov 09 2025

5 stars, no notes!

21 by Adele

Stunning album, love it.
