Popular Reviews

Kid A by Radiohead

Not sure if this was an album or just meditation music. Either way, I nearly passed out by track three — and not in a good way.

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis

Wow, this was bad… but hey, at least it dragged on forever.

461 Ocean Boulevard by Eric Clapton
May 08 2025

TIL Eric Clapton is a racist, anti-vax piece of shit who built a career ripping off Black musicians and still thinks he’s a victim. Turns out the only thing legendary about him is his bullshit. Fuck Eric Clapton.

Pictures At An Exhibition by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
May 09 2025

WTF was this? These strange sounds made me so uncomfortable and jittery, I had to stop halfway through. I’m honestly not sure if you need to be an alien or pop some LSD before hitting play—but whatever it takes, I clearly wasn’t prepared. Definitely not my cup of tea.

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
May 20 2025

After listening to this album, I can confidently say: I still don’t like jazz.

Kid A by Radiohead
May 21 2025

Endtroducing..... by DJ Shadow
May 24 2025

I thought I signed up for "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die," not "1001 Albums That Make You Wanna Die." This one was another total snoozefest.

One World by John Martyn
May 25 2025

If your dream playlist includes waiting room vibes and elevator ambience, this album absolutely delivers.

May 26 2025

I wasn’t aware that vague screaming paired with some background noise now qualifies as music. Good to know.

Horses by Patti Smith
May 27 2025

Maybe autotune has ruined my ears, but I’m pretty sure that wasn’t singing.

Movies by Holger Czukay
Jun 02 2025

WTF did I just listen to? It was… different. Sort of sounded like a child exploring the full creative potential of a soundboard with no adult supervision.

GI by Germs
Jun 08 2025

Without the instruments in the background, I wouldn’t be able to tell that this shouting is supposed to be music.

Smile by Brian Wilson

Funeral by Arcade Fire

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Jun 17 2025

I refuse to hear a single second of an album made by human trash. Fuck Kanye West. Fuck Nazis.

S&M by Metallica

If someone asked me what a generic, synth-drenched, basic-ass 80s album sounds like, I’d say: New Gold Dream, hands down. Too bad I can’t stand that cheesy 80s crap. 😂

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Jul 11 2025
Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers

Basket of Light by Pentangle
Jul 17 2025

The kind of music that makes you miss the Black Death.

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley
Jul 23 2025

This album is so boring, I started missing the sound of silence.

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Jul 24 2025
Scott 4 by Scott Walker
Aug 01 2025
Future Days by Can
Aug 04 2025

WTF was that? I honestly feel like I listened to a different album than everyone else. Is this 5-star hype part of some inside joke no one told me about?

1989 by Taylor Swift
Sep 12 2025

I just don’t get the Taylor Swift hype. Every song sounds the same, her style is super basic, and her voice? Nothing special. And somehow she’s a billionaire off this? Meanwhile Lady Gaga actually has talent and a voice that blows you away. And the private jet thing… she’s zipping around the U.S. like it’s no big deal, while we peasants struggle with soggy paper straws to “save the planet.” Peak basic. I’ll happily die on this hill.

After I heard the first song on the album, where the singer keeps singing (or should I say shouting) “fuck me like an animal”, I just knew this was going to be a poetic masterpiece. If I took a shot every time they said “fuck” (or some variation like “fucking” or “motherfucker”), I’d be dead from alcohol poisoning by the second track. But to put it in the words of the ever-creative and oh-so-poetic Fred Durst (or whoever came up with these impeccable lyrics): fuck this album and fuck Limp Bizkit.

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre

Heard this was a banger on the way to Saturn.

Illmatic by Nas

It’s basically the same song on repeat ten times.
