Dusty Springfield · 2 likes
2/5
It was solid. Didn’t like enough for a 3
Cornershop · 1 likes
2/5
Not for me. I think it’s Brit pop like super grass or blur or oasis but also with some Indian influence.
1-Star Albums (6)
All Ratings
ABBA
4/5
I like it, I see why everyone likes ABBA.
Pink Floyd
2/5
2 stars will be my rating for neutral/meh
Alice In Chains
2/5
Ehh this is more of a 2.8
2
The Smiths
2/5
Two stars. One of the songs reminded me of a Dance Dance by Fall out boy
Sigur Rós
2/5
Reminded me of Beach House, Cigarettes After Sex. Maybe they were the original influence?
I would say it’s a 2.5 stars, not quite 3. If it was in English and or had more vocals I’d be more into it. Solid.
Buffalo Springfield
2/5
2.5
I liked the first song Mr. Soul and the last song Broken Arrow. Broken Arrow had a lot of beat switches
Sleater-Kinney
2/5
Definitely not for me. Found the voice shrill. Some parts I could see myself listening to.
Talking Heads
2/5
Started promising with the African influence, but not for me.
R.E.M.
2/5
A 2.5, it is easy listening and reminded me of a Tony Hawk soundtrack.
Ananda Shankar
2/5
Nothing notable that I could recall.
John Lee Hooker
3/5
First song is great! Reminds me of Smooth Operator. Rest of the album reminded me of Tom Waits’ Way Down in the Hole.
Haircut 100
2/5
Nothing to note.
Linkin Park
4/5
I missed this album! Listened 10 days later. The actual first album I recognized. 4 stars. It's not as good as Meteora which would get a 5. But I saved 8 songs from this album so it's awesome.
Laura Nyro
2/5
Liked the first couple songs and the hit stoned soul picnic.
Donald Fagen
2/5
2 stars. I thought I'd like it more considering the guy is part of Steely Dan.
R.E.M.
2/5
Nothing notable.
The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy
1/5
This is definitely not for me. First one star. It sounds like that whole “lyrical, miracle, spiritual” rap or a rock critic’s version of what good hip hop is.
Common
4/5
First album I encountered that I already knew! I love this one. 4 stars.
Supergrass
2/5
Not for me. Idk.
Nick Drake
3/5
All Nick Drake to revisit later
3
Lana Del Rey
3/5
I think is good! First Lana Del Rey album for me. She reminds me of BANKS and I love BANKS.
DJ Shadow
2/5
It was an easy listen but as a full instrumental album it isn't for me. I had a DJ background which surprised me too but wasn't interested by it. It's more like 2.5 stars so I'll keep it at 2.
The Velvet Underground
2/5
Not for me. I liked the song Heroin though.
Marvin Gaye
3/5
Vibing to this. No standout tracks on first listen
Cornershop
2/5
Not for me. I think it’s Brit pop like super grass or blur or oasis but also with some Indian influence.
Bruce Springsteen
2/5
Feels like I should be in a pickup flying a flag.
David Bowie
3/5
I liked this! 3 stars.
The Triffids
2/5
It’s an Australian band. 2 stars not for me
Nico
2/5
The usual two star. First heard of Nico through Velvet Underground.
The Cure
2/5
Some parts felt like very easy listening.
Maxwell
4/5
Need to listen to it more, but definite 4 stars for me.
Gotan Project
2/5
Eh easy play through, not for me.
Kings of Leon
2/5
Not vibing with it, the usual 2 stars.
B.B. King
2/5
Easy listen, might need more to see if it is 3 stars.
Buena Vista Social Club
2/5
Sounds like instrumental you'd hear in movies or shows.
The Residents
1/5
I would say 1.5, it isn't for me. But 2 usually means it's an easy listen and isn't for me, but this was not an easy listen and I can't round up, so it'll just be a 1 star.
Hugh Masekela
3/5
I didn't get to re-visit this but 3 stars the opening was just so good.
Destiny's Child
3/5
It's more like 3.5 stars for me rather than 4. Idk why. I like a number of songs off it too.
Janelle Monáe
3/5
I love Janelle Monae so it's gonna be a 3.
Steely Dan
2/5
I tried to see if I could get it to three and I like Steely Dan, but it's like a 2.75 so it'll be two stars.
Beck
2/5
2 not for me. Parts I was intrigued by though.
Caetano Veloso
2/5
2 not for me.
Keith Jarrett
2/5
It was cool, didn't catch me.
Beatles
4/5
I'll give it another listen and might raise it to 4. But definitely a strong 3! I liked it a good amount on first listen.
was raised to a 4
Dusty Springfield
2/5
It was solid. Didn’t like enough for a 3
Soft Cell
3/5
3 stars simply for tainted love
The Temptations
2/5
I thought I'd like this more but no, it's a 2 star. Surprised.
The White Stripes
2/5
Nothing special.
Gram Parsons
3/5
I think it’s a 3 but not for me‽ like a 2.75 I might consider to play this again
Blur
2/5
It was ok but that first song reminded me of Good Charlotte?
Parliament
2/5
Although I know we want the funk and I enjoy other Parliament songs, surprised this didn't get a 3. It's more like 2.5, so it'll be a 2.
Fairport Convention
2/5
The third song on this album reminded me of other songs (at least the cadence). But not for me.
The Sugarcubes
2/5
The usual 2 stars. An Icelandic group, it's an easy listen but nothing memorable it's not for me.
David Bowie
2/5
Why is a David Bowie album from 2016 on the list? I couldn't get through it but will give 2 stars by default.
k.d. lang
2/5
Easy listen but still a two. But more like a 2.5.
Jefferson Airplane
2/5
I'll give it a 2.75 (the first part had me at 3). But I'll be strict even if I'm in a good mood.
Van Morrison
2/5
First song alright but not for me
The Velvet Underground
2/5
2 is generous I don’t get them
Madonna
2/5
I like some of the songs but wasn't vibing so keeping 2.
The Beach Boys
3/5
I liked this enough for a 3, in a good mood.
Cyndi Lauper
2/5
Not quite a 3 but a very easy listen more like a 2.8.
Hot Chip
2/5
Nothing special but each song did start out differently. Wasn't the same sound throughout.
The Black Crowes
2/5
Easy listen but not for me. 2 stars
Aretha Franklin
2/5
I like the songs but it wouldn't be something I go back to, although she is a legend. It's a 2.7.
Billy Bragg
1/5
Not for me but also not an easy listen once I locked in. Listening to it while at a drive thru. It's a 1.7 or 1.5 so giving it a 1.
Frank Black
2/5
I did kinda like this, but not saving anything from here, so 2. It's like a 2.4.
Prince
4/5
I saved a couple songs but I guess it makes it a 3?
watched the movie so it's now a 4
Pixies
2/5
I know the song "Where is my Mind" but unsure where I heard it from. Not for me overall but two stars.
Ms. Dynamite
2/5
It's easy listening but isn't grabbing my ear.
Arcade Fire
2/5
I really like the first few songs but just kinda died down on me. Heard this album years ago too. But it’s like a 2.8
Run-D.M.C.
3/5
3 stars! I definitely remembered how much I liked some of these songs. But I wouldn't revisit it because it definitely feels dated.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
2/5
I actually liked a couple songs but wouldn't go back to it.
Can
2/5
Nothing notable
Kate Bush
2/5
I did recognize that first song which is real good. Easy listening.
Screaming Trees
2/5
Easy listening but not for me.
The Verve
2/5
First song is the iconic bittersweet symphony and it was an easy listen throughout. 2
The Psychedelic Furs
2/5
Probably a 2 don't remember this one.
The Jesus And Mary Chain
2/5
The first song caught my ear. 2
Paul Simon
2/5
Easy listen but nothing memorable played it 3x
Iggy Pop
2/5
Felt new wave vibes — but still 2
The Chemical Brothers
2/5
Sounded very 90s and easy electronic music listen but ehh.
Britney Spears
3/5
I'd give it a 3 because of the impact at the time, even though I'm not revisiting. I do like it more than a 2.8.
Dead Kennedys
2/5
I actually kinda liked this one. This is like a 2.7-2.8. Some of it reminds me of a Tony Hawk soundtrack. I can hear how this inspired other groups. Also, I could identify the diversity in these songs.
The Beach Boys
2/5
Easy listening, but didn't captivate me. Not quite a 3.
Leonard Cohen
2/5
2 stars - easy listening. Sounds like a very old man singing.
Silver Jews
1/5
I know I'm not the audience for this but this guy's voice is not fun or pleasant to listen to. Usually I give things 2 stars but this sounds like something a parody would do.
Johnny Cash
2/5
Ehh it isn't for me. It feels like a 2.5.
Prince
2/5
It was fine, more like a 2.8
Steve Earle
2/5
The usual 2 stars not for me.
The Only Ones
2/5
Easy listen but not for me.
Adele
3/5
I gave it a 3 because on the whole it's very good but I don't know if I'd be playing this back.
Christina Aguilera
2/5
I'd give this a 2.8 - saved a song. I really do like her voice.
Kendrick Lamar
5/5
Still awesome 13 years later, amazing.
The xx
2/5
Not for me, but it's fine.
James Brown
2/5
Made coffee while listening, it was easy listening but couldn't pick up anything. I'll give it a 2 but a very nice two.
Beatles
4/5
a 4
Frank Sinatra
2/5
Easy listening but not for me. Maybe I need to be in a ballroom
The The
2/5
Eh two stars. Feels new wavey but although I like new wave not this album.
Leonard Cohen
2/5
2 stars. I know this guy because of Hallelujah
Eels
2/5
Easy listening, one of the songs “Guest List” reminded me of an Owl City or some band of the 2000s. My guess is they inspired it.
The Electric Prunes
2/5
Eh nothing memorable.
ZZ Top
2/5
The usual 2
Portishead
2/5
I liked it. I can see the inspiration it had for Alessia Cara and other groups. A 2.75
Dr. Octagon
1/5
I'll give it a 1. Felt like the lyrical, miracle, spiritual kind of rap.
Doves
2/5
It’s easy listening for sure. I like it I made coffee while listening. A 2.75
Tears For Fears
3/5
3 stars. Everybody wants to rule the world is so good that it carries it to 3.
Nanci Griffith
2/5
Not for me - 2
Sinead O'Connor
2/5
Feels like a two — easy listening but not for me
Fats Domino
2/5
Placeholder #2 - gotta get to it but it's not available for streaming.
Tom Waits
2/5
It was easy listening
Ride
2/5
It's easy listening but didn't catch my ear. Related groups are Jesus and Mary Chain
The Rolling Stones
3/5
Was vibing with it, generous 3 instead of a 2.8
Eminem
2/5
Two stars for legacy, but did not like
Robbie Williams
2/5
It was okay. Brit pop
The Byrds
2/5
Was fine.
De La Soul
2/5
I think this is a 2.9 - I saved two songs from it but not all the way there for a 3.
Jeru The Damaja
2/5
East coast rapper, collaborated with Gang Starr. Eh.
Napalm Death
2/5
Very listenable, but isn't my type of music. Probably give it a 2.5 which is okay.
Electric Light Orchestra
2/5
I'll get to it later but I have this at a 2.9 off a few listens. Don't wanna fall behind on the albums. My guess is people rated this at 3.5.
The Specials
2/5
I like that first song, and the other song that sounds like the first song (Rudy). 2.4. My guess is this gets a 2.92
Mylo
2/5
Was vibing to this, it is electronic music from 2005. A 2.7. Not sure when I would play this in my own life though.
Fleetwood Mac
3/5
I would say a 3. My guess is this got a 3.3
The Strokes
2/5
Someday caught my ear like it did everyone else's. Still not for me, so it's about a 2.7 for me. My guess is this gets a 3.08 for user rating.
Rufus Wainwright
2/5
9/24/25 - played this album a lot. It reminded me of another group but can't remember. But even having it on repeat by accident all day, it's just not for me. 2.5
Slipknot
2/5
A generous 2. Not for me. Generous because I don't want to be harsh.
Pearl Jam
2/5
I'm sure people really enjoy this one. It's a 2.3 for me. Idk.
Johnny Cash
2/5
It isn't bad. It isn't for me. My guess is the people rate this a 3.02.
Scritti Politti
2/5
2 stars. I saw they influenced groups like CHVRCHES which I can see. It's fine. Prediction rating: 2.4
Depeche Mode
3/5
I would give it a 3 because of my fondness for Depeche Mode. Prediction for global rating: 3.3
I do like the songs as a whole but wouldn't re-listen, probably just save the ones I like.
Marvin Gaye
4/5
I think I liked this one more than the 80s album
Maybe a 4?
Sarah Vaughan
2/5
Jazz album - this one wasn't for me.
Orbital
2/5
Electronic - this album is not for me.
Grizzly Bear
2/5
It was a 2.
Coldplay
2/5
Not sure how to rate this one. I'm not into Coldplay although obviously I know their songs. I'll just leave it as a 2 star. It's probably a 3 but I don't feel strongly about them at all. My guess is this got a 3.2 for the global rating.
Simon & Garfunkel
3/5
I liked this one. Will explore Graceland from Paul Simon.
3/5
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
2/5
Ehh. Not for me.
Big Brother & The Holding Company
3/5
I liked this, my guess it's because of Janis Joplin. It gets a 3.
If I rated it a 3, this mean this probably a 3.5
Joanna Newsom
3/5
Sounds like it could be in a movie. And Joanna Newsom's music has been in a PTA movie.
Some parts of the album I really enjoyed. Feels like multiple songs per song.
5:57 for Only Skin
0:46, 4:25 for Cosmia
Stan Getz
2/5
The girl from Ipanema is a classic.
Suede
2/5
The usual 2, not for me. My guess is this got a 3.1

2/5
Easy listening but not for me. 2
Thin Lizzy
2/5
Two but it was actually okay. A 2.7
Guessing this got a 3.4
Mekons
2/5
Not for me. 2
Jimi Hendrix
4/5
Favorite of Jimi Hendrix so far.
Jimi Hendrix
4/5
Not quite as good as electric ladyland.
Derek & The Dominos
2/5
Learned this was an old band that Eric Clapton was part of. The Layla song sounded cool.
2.7
Metallica
2/5
Live album from 1999 in collaboration with classical music.
Usual 2 - not for me
The Rolling Stones
2/5
ehh.
Elvis Costello
2/5
??
really gotta wonder who came up with this list.
2
3/5
Feeling generous - 3.
I thought it would be a 2 initially but with enough plays this album broke through to me and it sounds very diverse, it's not just one sound throughout (e.g. Starlight to Supermassive Black Hole to Map of the Problematique in that three track sequence, then later on it's Assassin and Exo-Politics).
I like that it just seemed like they wanted to do whatever they wanted, however grand or big or crazy it seems. It isn't "coherent" in that sense in terms of the sound being similar but that is not a knock on this album.
Kanye West
4/5
I already know this album but because I don't love all the tracks it's not a 5. I've re-visited the album over the years and it still holds up but I find myself liking it a little bit less over the years.
4.2/5
Red Hot Chili Peppers
3/5
Very soft 3. I like RHCP but wouldn't say I am a big fan.
Culture Club
3/5
Vibing enough for 3 stars, I like several songs outside of Karma Chameleon.

2/5
Wasn’t that interested in this. 2
Elliott Smith
2/5
Not very interested
2
Ghostface Killah
2/5
2 but only because i don’t feel like listening. Will revisit later

3/5
Easy listening like Stan Gaetz
3
Simon & Garfunkel
3/5
Also liked this one, another 3.
I liked their final album more though
John Martyn
2/5
Almost forgot to rate. I do enjoy that first song but that was it, thought I'd like this more but it's more like a 2.8, almost a 3.
Aphex Twin
2/5
I'm guessing this was important but not for me in 2025
2
Neil Young
2/5
No standouts, the usual 2
2
Coldplay
2/5
It sounded a little more intriguing than the 2002 album that came after that had Scientist and Clocks, but likely not revisiting
2
Orange Juice
2/5
No notes
2
Lightning Bolt
2/5
A punk album from 2003
2
Nine Inch Nails
2/5
maybe revisit later but probably not

Sounded cool
2
AC/DC
2/5

Elvis Costello & The Attractions
2/5
Meh
Nirvana
2/5
I think track 3 heart shaped box was the one I liked, overall not feeling the album. 2
Afrika Bambaataa
2/5
It was okay, familiar with the first song of course
The Smiths
2/5
the usual 2
Jimmy Smith
2/5
Sounded like good jazz to me.

Justice
2/5
This is more of a 2.7-2.8 — caught my ear and didn’t realize I knew some songs and they were on The Weeknd’s latest album
Louis Prima
2/5
This was some nice to listen jazz.
2
The Temptations
3/5
It’s pretty good! 3
Beatles
4/5
It's growing on me. I like Rubber Soul and Revolver more on those first listens though
Mudhoney
2/5
Ehh
2
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
2/5
One of the songs on this album caught my ear because it sounded like something I'd heard before (i.e. someone sampled this group)
2
Big Star
2/5
Left this playing on repeat, didn't catch my ear
2
Depeche Mode
3/5
I guess because of my upbringing, I can't really rate this any lower than a 3. I did like some of it.
Japan
2/5
It isn't a 3, it's more like a 2.65.
3/5
I might need to give this a deeper listen but it sounded kinda good. 3
Miles Davis
2/5
Need more of a listen
Listen for later, rating to keep up with daily list
Sepultura

Lauryn Hill
5/5
A masterpiece.
Metallica
2/5
It was okay, recognized some of the songs
2.70
Bruce Springsteen
3/5
I liked it so far. Guessing the 1001 community will love it
3/5 but probably will land at a 3.5
Lupe Fiasco
4/5
I'm wondering if I should give this an 8/10 since the tracks I like are so strong, meaning 4 stars? Or keep it at 3.
I'll go 4. Prediction rating: 3.08
Red Hot Chili Peppers
2/5
RHCP is like goodish/okayish to me. Maybe because they're so popular I'm like ehh on them as a whole.
2.8
This probably got a 3.4
The Flaming Lips
2/5
a 2.9
I liked Do You Realize?? and All We Have is Now
I feel like I've heard "All We Have is Now" from somewhere
The Band
3/5

Two

It's okay ish
2
Run-D.M.C.

Nah it'll be a 2. But it's a 2.7
Peter Gabriel
2/5
Re-visit later
2
Various Artists
3/5
I liked it, had some songs I was familiar with.
3
Beastie Boys
2/5
A 2.8
All the hit songs were the ones I’m familiar with. It’s probably a 3 but when would I go “it’s time to listen to Licensed to Ill”
The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
