Paranoid by Black Sabbath

Wow I have been missing out, this is quite solid stuff. 4/5, I enjoy the instrumental songs as well

Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band

This was bad. Terrible lyrics too

The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monáe

Wow this was exciting! Definitely felt very artistic and grand, with amazing dynamics and soulful vocals. 5/5

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
Mar 07 2025

Meh, not too into it, even walk this way was meh. Raising hell bit better, slightly groovy good beat n solo 3/5

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Mar 08 2025

Wow I have been missing out, this is quite solid stuff. 4/5, I enjoy the instrumental songs as well

Mar 09 2025

First song was terrible, the rest of the album was catchy, groovy, and sonically interesting. 4/5

Mar 10 2025

The first song started out okay but the rest of the album got more and more grating to listen to, last few songs got a bit better, 1.5/5.

Different Class by Pulp
Mar 11 2025

Feels like decent british rock but nothing too special 3/5

Dance Mania by Tito Puente
Mar 12 2025

Nice music that I feel like would be fun to dance to if I knew how to, catchy good rhythms. 3.5/5 Also good jazz vibes.

Moby Grape by Moby Grape
Mar 13 2025

Interesting early rock group, reminds me of the Beatles. I like some tracks like "8:05" and "Rounders" with a good instrumental mix, particularly the bass and guitar.

Mar 14 2025

Iconic album, excellent songs with great buildups, choruses, dynamics, and varied instrumentals. Standouts: Breathe, Time, Money, Us and Them, Eclipse, 5/5.

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Mar 15 2025

Wonderful soul album, really enjoy "Just out of reach", feels like a nice movie song. I also like "Can't nobody love you" (seems like I am a fan of the backing chorus in contrast with his voice). "Can't love em" all reminds me of the Beatles' "All my loving". Album does a great job of evoking emotions, has fun rhyming lyrics, and the singer has a rich and expressive voice. 4/5

Mar 17 2025

Album is so long and though some songs are good, others feel like generic 80s songs (Journey, A-Ha) and there's just too much, also not a fan of the whispery singing and repetitive instrumentals, 2/5.

Mar 18 2025

I've never actually listened to anything aside from the hits from Coldplay and was pleasantly surprised. Some of the songs get a little repetitive with their chorus and blend together, but a 4/5 for me. New songs I like: Politik, A Whisper

New Forms by Roni Size
Mar 20 2025

Worse than fat boy slim, repetitive drum beat 1/5

Legalize It by Peter Tosh
Mar 21 2025

3/5, solid reggae album, but I prefer his stuff about equal rights more than legalizing weed

Blood, Sweat & Tears by Blood, Sweat & Tears
Mar 23 2025

Interesting album, very unique sound, not the biggest fan of some of the songs, my favorite was "Spinning Wheel", liked the jazz inspiration throughout, but no other songs really stuck with me. 3/5

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Mar 24 2025

The first 6 songs on the album are a 5/5, unfortunately the middle to end (except road trippin) blend together and are just a bit too grating. 4/5

Abraxas by Santana
Mar 25 2025

Some interesting instrumentals, but not too interesting either.

Caetano Veloso by Caetano Veloso
Mar 26 2025

Interesting album would have been good except for that one song with the recorder that was very bad

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Mar 27 2025

Interesting sounds, reminded me of something I had on cd as a kid, but more background music since I can't understand

Greetings From L.A. by Tim Buckley
Mar 28 2025

Not feeling it, feels like background music even though there are good instrumentals. 2/5, liked some of his other album more

What's That Noise? by Coldcut
Mar 30 2025

Interesting album, better than fat boy slim, like the first song and "stop this crazy thing" but the rest was meh. also not even on spotify - 2/5.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Mar 31 2025

Very cool short album, nice saxophone, and jazzy, 3.5/5

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye
Apr 01 2025

Some iconic songs, smooth, but nothing that I truly loved, 3/5

Ritual De Lo Habitual by Jane's Addiction
Apr 02 2025

Some interesting songs, very unique instrumentals, 3/5

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Apr 03 2025

Great grooves, brass, backing vocals, bass, and drums and of course vocals on the tracks make them all enjoyable to listen to, everything is very cohesive. Didn't realize that Rihanna sampled "Wanna be starting something". "Baby be mine" is also nice - really like the runs in that one. Especially enjoyed: "Human Nature, Thriller, Billie Jean," makes sense why it's a classic 5/5.

Trio by Dolly Parton
Apr 04 2025

Not the biggest fan, felt a bit muted all around vs solo Dolly, favorite song is Wildflowers, 3/5.

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Apr 05 2025

Nothing in this really stood out to me, very slow and dragging, but some songs had good guitar solos at least. 3/5

Vento De Maio by Elis Regina
Apr 07 2025

Catchy album with some cool grooves, 3.5/5, really enjoyed the last song.

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Apr 08 2025

Didn't like Willie the pimp, liked all the others somewhat, guitar has excellent tone and feels alive, interesting instrumentals, 3/5.

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Apr 09 2025

I actually quite liked this! Pleasantly surprised, very melodic and easy to listen to compared to how screamy some other metal bands were. Liked run for the hills and the last song, 4/5

The Nightfly by Donald Fagen
Apr 10 2025

Really liked this, 4/5.

Third/Sister Lovers by Big Star
Apr 11 2025

Cool album, elements of pink floyd and beatles, a few cool guitar solos, 3/5 - nothing too memorable unfortunately.

Kid A by Radiohead
Apr 12 2025

Anxiety-inducing cacophanous sound. I thought this was going to be more along the lines of Coldplay, it was very unique, but not something I will listen to again most likely. 3/5.

Apr 13 2025

First three tracks were interesting and energetic, fourth track was cool with the flamenco guitar. Would definitely like to listen to this album again, 4/5.

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
Apr 14 2025

Haunting, dark, reminds me of "Hurt" by Johnny Cash - very dark and touching on existential concepts with a very raspy,deep voice. Super interesting and unique, but I probably will not listen to again unless I am feeling darkness 3/5.

All Things Must Pass by George Harrison
Apr 15 2025

I liked these songs, they were quite good! 4/5 though because it was very long and not as much an album as an assortment of songs.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Apr 17 2025

I liked zombie a bit better than this one, felt a bit flat.

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Apr 19 2025

Really enjoyed this, 5/5. The live show adds to the atmosphere, and the playing is very clean and bluesy.

Trafalgar by Bee Gees
Apr 20 2025

Didn't expect this sound from the bee gees, liked Lion in Winter and the Waterloo song, but the rest was meh, 3/5

Ogden's Nut Gone Flake by Small Faces
Apr 21 2025

Crazy album title, thought this was gonna be another Beatles clone but pleasantly surprised, 3/5

Disintegration by The Cure
Apr 23 2025

Good but lots of songs sound similar, 3/5

The Chronic by Dr. Dre
Apr 24 2025

Some cool songs, but the next album has all the bangers, 3/5. Honorable mention for deez nuts

Sound of Silver by LCD Soundsystem
Apr 26 2025

Some interesting songs and beats, but others really don't help. Like "Someone Great" and the New York Song, 3/5

1999 by Prince
Apr 27 2025

Not what I expected from Prince, not much guitar, some interesting songs but 3/5.

Kilimanjaro by The Teardrop Explodes
Apr 28 2025

Odd lyrics, felt flat and repetitive, 2/5

Faded into the background for me, 2/5

May 08 2025

May 09 2025

Album went a bit long, but on the whole was very interesting and groovy to listen to. Can understand why it is so influential, 4/5.

Melodrama by Lorde
May 10 2025

Solid album, faded a bit towards the end for me, 3/5 intriguing

American Beauty by Grateful Dead
May 11 2025

Felt like music from a simpler time, most of the songs sounded the same and had similar muted harmonized vocals. 3/5

On The Beach by Neil Young
May 14 2025

Reminds of old west America, I like the harmonica, nice, slow and nostalgic, 3.5/5

Back In Black by AC/DC
May 17 2025

Classic but only like the main hits, 3.5/5

May 19 2025

May 20 2025

Very good. First several songs are classics, then a lull, but finished strong, 4/5

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs by Derek & The Dominos
Jun 21 2025

Layla, a 5/5 is the best song on this album , unfortunately which is just a bunch of assorted songs which brings it down to a 3.5. I also like anyday and little wing

Aug 10 2025

This was bad. Terrible lyrics too

May 19 2026

Moving Pictures by Rush
Jun 07 2026
