Prince

5/5

Duh. It’s amazing!

Aftermath

The Rolling Stones

3/5

So maybe it’s just the version I’m listening to but the mixing is terrible. I think it’s supposed to represent like being in a club listening to the stones play. But I don’t know. It’s unclear. Either way the album is fine. Some songs are good. Some of them are great. And you can really her the blues influence. But considering it was the released the same year as revolver and year before Sgt pepper’s and pet sounds, it feels too basic.

Hybrid Theory

Linkin Park

2/5

I’ve never been a linkin park fan

A Wizard, A True Star

Todd Rundgren

More interesting than it has any right to be.

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

Music in Exile

Songhoy Blues

4/5

Bubble And Scrape

Sebadoh

3/5

I like early-mid 90s alt rock. It’s pretty good. But it didn’t blow me away

Konnichiwa

Skepta

3/5

So I don’t like grime but I did like this well enough

Triangle

The Beau Brummels

2/5

There is nothing this album was doing that more famous musicians of the late 60s weren’t doing better. And then the album got to my old Kentucky home and I couldn’t do it anymore. why?

Amnesiac

Radiohead

4/5

It was good but just not the mood I was in.

The Clash

4/5

This is pure punk, foundational punk. I think the Clash had better albums, but in terms of just fundamental punk this is a good album.

Sex Packets

Digital Underground

3/5

Strangeways, Here We Come

The Smiths

3/5

I feel like this is a band trying as hard as possible to be different than their previous identity. At times it works. At times, it foreshadows radiohead or early Brit Pop. At times, I really like it. But it mostly comes off as trying very hard to not be who the Smiths were before.

The Contino Sessions

Death In Vegas

2/5

It’s someone’s jam. Just not mine.

Germs

2/5

Meh. I can’t give it one because I know it’s helpful.

Tank Battles

Dagmar Krause

3/5

As an American in 2025, I am living through Weimar Germany, I don’t need to listen to it. 🙃 truly this reminds mostly of the Original Broadway Cast recording of a Cameron Macintosh produced mega-musical like Les Miz or Cats. I think it’s the instrumentation and the production. And I half expect the to hear Colm Wilkinson singing about redemption. I feel like this is a hackier version of Cabaret or Oh! what a lovely war. It’s a stage musical without a stage.

Music From The Penguin Cafe

Penguin Cafe Orchestra

4/5

It was great for vibey music for work

Shaft

Isaac Hayes

4/5

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

4/5

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

5/5

Y’all ever just been taken to church? Cause album will take you to church. This is the red headed step child of an unmatched imperial phase. And so while I like other albums from the imperial phase more (talking book and innervisions are insane) this is still a classic. Also I can’t get over the fact a 24-year-old wrote this. I spent 24 pining for an ex and wondering if I should drop out of grad school

I Should Coco

Supergrass

3/5

Meh

La Revancha Del Tango

Gotan Project

3/5

Its 2004. You walk into an express to buy jeans and a going out top. This album is playing. You go to the Starbucks to get a cappuccino. This album is playing. You got to a borders to buy Harry Potter for your nerdy niece and left behind for your prepper grandpa. This album is playing. Spiritually this album is just what commerce sounded like 20 to 25 years ago. This 3 stars is really 2.75.

MTV Unplugged In New York

Nirvana

This is one of my favorite albums of all time. It’s not just nirvana but every cover is amazing

Pink Moon
