Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin
Feb 26 2025

I wasn't expecting to, but I actually somewhat enjoyed it. I don't think this subgenre of rock is my thing, but there were a few songs I'll likely come back to, namely "Custard Pie" and "Kashmir."

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Feb 28 2025

the flute reminded me of King Gizzard

25 by Adele
Mar 04 2025

it's not bad, it's just not my thing at all

Boston by Boston
Mar 05 2025

sounds like generic 80s rock, which I guess makes this ahead of its time because it released in 1976

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
Mar 06 2025

finally, some good fucking food I've started listening to Kendrick after his super bowl halftime show, but I'd only got through the Drake diss songs and To Pimp a Butterfly, so this was next on my to-do list anyways. I'm not really into hip-hop, but what I've heard from Kendrick so far is great, this included. I'm giving a 4/5, but I wouldn't be surprised if that goes up after repeat listens.

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Mar 10 2025

it's good, but I don't think this is for me

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Mar 11 2025

This is the first album I've been given that I've already listened to. It's been a while since I've listened to this, so this is a great excuse for me to do so. I love this album, it's great.

American Idiot by Green Day
Mar 12 2025

it's good. too bad I'm bad at paying attention to lyrics and their meaning. I'm sick of hearing "Wake Me Up When September Ends"

The Renaissance by Q-Tip
Mar 13 2025

I loved it. I'm normally a rock and electronic guy, so I'm shocked that my two favorites from this list so far have been this and "good kid, m.A.A.d city"

Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
Mar 14 2025

didn't love it, didn't hate it

Mar 17 2025

I think I don't like folk music. Giving it a 2 because at least I liked "Metropolis" and I wasn't completely miserable the entire time.

Mar 19 2025

I've listened to this before when I went through a huge electronic music phase, but it's been a while since I last listened to it. It never really clicked with me before, but I enjoyed it this time. I've been trying to give albums ratings based on how "good" I think it is """objectively""" based on """""vibes,""""" so even though I only kind of liked it, I'm giving it a 4.

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Mar 21 2025

It's old. It's soul. I don't get the hype. I feel like a broken record, but: it's good, but not for me.

Mar 24 2025

it's old. it's rock. but I do get the hype. except "Moonchild," I don't get what was going on there.

Stankonia by OutKast
Mar 25 2025

neato I found out after the fact that the songs I liked were the popular ones

Brown Sugar by D'Angelo
Mar 26 2025

surprisingly enjoyable listen considering I was on a train

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Apr 02 2025

I was surprised when "Wild World" came on because I assumed I wouldn't recognize any songs from this. I liked "But I Might Die Tonight," so of course it was the second shortest song. Good album I guess, but not my thing. I've said that for 95% of the albums I've listened to on this list, but I really don't know what else to say.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Apr 10 2025

this is a pretty cool nirvana album I want to like it. At times it's entertaining and holds my attention, but the album loses my attention just as quickly. I didn't care for "Nevermind" or "In Utero" either, so maybe I just don't like grunge? Maybe I just don't get it? Maybe I wasn't in the right mood while listening to this? This album has been a breaking point for me. I wrote up a whole rant about how I've enjoyed a mere 6 of the 28 albums I've listened to so far, but I deleted it. I'm taking a break from this website, who knows when or if I'll be back.

Apr 11 2025

I enjoyed this. I don't know if it's very unique, but I needed something to enjoy rather than something unique to dislike.

Ramones by Ramones
Apr 14 2025

"Blitzkrieg Bop" is overplayed. Other than that, I like the instrumentals, but not the vocals. Although as the album went on I found myself not minding the vocals as much. Very foundational for the punk genre, etc. etc. Wait these guys are American???

Parklife by Blur
Apr 15 2025

Well I recently listened to two other Blur albums for the first time of my own volition, so this is good timing. After listening to this, it further supports my opinion that everyone is better than Americans when it comes to making music.

Forever Changes by Love
Apr 16 2025

I'm shocked I enjoyed this as much as I did

Apr 17 2025

Enjoyable, but I liked the Talking Heads-esque songs more than the ambient ones.

Teenager Of The Year by Frank Black
Apr 18 2025

it's neat, I enjoyed it for the most part, but I don't see why this is on the list. very Lou Reed vocals at times

Mothership Connection by Parliament
Apr 21 2025

seemed funky I guess. I listened to this while doing something else, so in not giving it my full attention, I have no thoughts.

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Apr 22 2025

I hate country music. We'll see if this changes my mind. Post-listen: Maybe I don't hate country music. But I certainly don't like it. I didn't hate this album, but I doubt I'll ever listen to it again. Also it ended very abruptly.

Apr 24 2025

It's fine. I imagine I would've liked this more when I was in high school. It's certainly no "Discovery" or "Since I Left You," but it's fine. Speaking of, why is the former not on this list?

Vento De Maio by Elis Regina
Apr 25 2025

don't get why this is missing from everything but spotify

Brothers by The Black Keys
Apr 28 2025

it starts out fun but pretty standard punk or blues or whatever, but then it gets kinda different starting with "Black Mud" and "The Only One." Not super out there, but there was a slight shift that I wasn't expecting. Maybe a little generic overall? But I still enjoyed it.

The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground
Apr 30 2025

I've listened to this before, didn't love it. We'll see if I change my mind. I'm still overall indifferent. "Sunday Morning" is good.

Smile by Brian Wilson
May 01 2025

I like Pet Sounds. This is like a rough, semi-finished Pet Sounds 2. Good stuff.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jul 03 2025

My car broke down during the first and so far only time I've listened to this album. I thought the album was fine. Guess I'll see if that changes. It's so long. Some songs are interesting, many are not. It's a real mixed bag for me, personally. It all seems well-made and "good," but *I* didn't enjoy it.

Berlin by Lou Reed
Jul 04 2025

I actually quite enjoyed this? Which is weird because I haven't liked any of The Velvet Underground albums I've listened to.

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Jul 07 2025

me when "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard" came on: IT'S THE SONG FROM THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS also I really liked "Peace Like a River"
