Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Apr 02 2025

Solid metal album, not to my tastes but Changes is a standout.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Apr 08 2025

Great chill vibes

Transformer by Lou Reed
Apr 10 2025

Nope. Absolutely not. This is considered good music?

Germfree Adolescents by X-Ray Spex
Apr 11 2025

If Jenny Slate made a countercultural noise fest in the 70s. Not for moi.

American Idiot by Green Day
Apr 14 2025

More sprawling in genre than I realized.

Teenager Of The Year by Frank Black
Apr 17 2025

Couldn’t make it through the damn thing. Men need therapy if they think this is good.

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane
Apr 18 2025

Somebody to Love and White Rabbit make it worth the listen. Grace Slick’s vocals are the highlight.

Foxbase Alpha by Saint Etienne
May 07 2025

Decent pop record with 90s trip hop influence

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
May 09 2025

Jazzy jazz. Too chaotic for my personal tastes

GREY Area by Little Simz
May 14 2025

Refreshingly not American - British rapstress, quite enjoyable

Blackstar by David Bowie
May 15 2025

First album I already had in my listening repertoire. A masterpiece!

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
May 20 2025

Decent but not loving it - includes Superstition of course

Kings Of The Wild Frontier by Adam & The Ants
May 22 2025

Very 80s, very conceptual. Less melodic than I like. Pop Music was a (known) highlight

Lost Souls by Doves
May 23 2025

Started off intriguing but became less unique sounding

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
May 26 2025

Wish I liked it more. Atmospheric, reminiscent of Springsteen in some ways.

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
May 28 2025

Very enjoyable - Nina Simone-esque vocals with a sound that’s very similar to a lot of the samples Kanye used in MBDTF (before he completely went off the deep end). 4.5 stars but I’ll round up

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Jun 03 2025

Enjoyable folky honky tonk

Jun 04 2025

Some of his biggest hits, but also some misses and a little countryfied at times for me

Kala by M.I.A.
Jun 26 2025
1984 by Van Halen
Jun 27 2025

Surprised at my enjoyment. jump is a standout

Imagine by John Lennon
Jun 30 2025
Bad by Michael Jackson
Jul 07 2025
Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Jul 08 2025

Janis Joplin is incredible. Would give 4.5 stars but I can’t, so it gets 5

Veckatimest by Grizzly Bear
Jul 09 2025

Surprisingly good chill vibes.

Music From The Penguin Cafe by Penguin Cafe Orchestra
Jul 10 2025

Had some interesting potential but got more unsettling than enjoyable.

Teenage Head by Flamin' Groovies
Jul 18 2025

Very traditional rock chord progressions. Gets one note real fast. I can’t believe this was ever seen as culturally threatening to people.

Elvis Is Back by Elvis Presley
Jul 23 2025

Fever is incredible. The rest is decent

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Jul 24 2025

Less provocative (especially sound wise) than I expected. 2.5, rounded up

Ramones by Ramones
Jul 29 2025

Started off interested and then realized every song is the same song. Painfully repetitive by the end. 2.5

Being There by Wilco
Aug 01 2025

Too long, didn’t connect. 2.5 rounding up

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Aug 04 2025
Aug 06 2025

So many quintessential 90s sonic delicacies … some trip hop, proto Ray of Light with Celtic flair.

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Aug 08 2025
Heroes by David Bowie
Aug 21 2025
Mothership Connection by Parliament
Dec 10 2025

2.5 - was quite repetitive despite being less than 40 mins

Chris by Christine and the Queens
Dec 11 2025
It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Dec 17 2025

Heads will roll is the highlight

Survivor by Destiny's Child
May 20 2026
Le Tigre by Le Tigre
May 22 2026

Deceptacon is a very fun opener. It’s very of its time. 3.5 rounding down

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths
Jun 03 2026

Enjoyed much more than expected. Excellent vibe, not my general preference but solid 4.5. Rounding down

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Jun 08 2026

Pleasant, not revolutionary. 3.5 rounded up

Different Class by Pulp
Jun 09 2026

Kind of a cousin of Pink Floyd, but less serious. Quite enjoyable!

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
Jun 19 2026

Ken Lee is a COVER? some solid tracks in here, 3.75 rounding up

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
Jun 22 2026

Just doesn’t really scratch my brain like it apparently should?

Locust Abortion Technician by Butthole Surfers
Jun 24 2026

This is just aggressively bad noise. Why on earth is this in the list? Straight men need therapy.

Destroyer by KISS
Jun 25 2026

Decent musicality, 3.5 rounding up

The White Album by Beatles
Jun 29 2026

Best Beatles album I’ve listened to thus far.

Ocean Rain by Echo And The Bunnymen
Jul 01 2026

2.5 rounding down.

Cut by The Slits
Jul 03 2026

2.5 rounded up I guess? I heard it through the grapevine is the one iconic one I guess. Nice to have some female representation in this genre

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
Jul 06 2026

Closest thing I’ve heard of theirs to the Her soundtrack, who know?

The Cars by The Cars
Jul 07 2026

Much more melodic/harmonic than rock normally is. Reminded me of Don’t Bring Me Down by ELO

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Jul 13 2026
Brothers by The Black Keys
Jul 14 2026
Microshift by Hookworms
Jul 15 2026

3.5 rounding up, I enjoyed this

Actually by Pet Shop Boys
Jul 16 2026

4.5, rounding up

Behaviour by Pet Shop Boys
Jul 17 2026

3.5 rounding up
