Popular Reviews

evermore by Taylor Swift

A very boring and pretentious album. She tries so hard to show how diverse she can be, however, she fails and delivers a soulless record with no personality. Throughout the album she sings in lower ranges mixed with high notes that doesn’t really hit the point. For me Willow, and no body no crime are the good ones, the rest are pretty forgettable.

Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel

Even though I know they are important for the music history. I don’t like their music. I do not connect with them. It is a bit boring and their voices are nothing special for me.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Jun 02 2025

Musically is very interesting. It is too long though. The hits are music jewels.

Sea Change by Beck
Jun 04 2025

The songs of this album are just fine. Sonically speaking is perfection. The whole album is too depressive for me. I prefer Beck in rock/ indie albums.

Jun 06 2025

It feels like a piece of history going through my ears. I find the album catchy, good rhymes, rhythm and storytelling. It set the base from future rap/ hip-hop and rnb artist's

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Jun 07 2025

Good Album , for the Rap Fans

Jun 09 2025

Glam rock Songs at it best! KISS essentials. Great pop-rock gems inside the album ! I really enjoyed this one

Garbage by Garbage
Jun 10 2025

I love Garbage and Shirley Manson. I have to admit that the album has a lot of fillers and without their great hits will be just another album.

A Seat at the Table by Solange
Jun 11 2025

It was a well produced and interesting album. Some good songs. However, I would not listen to it again. Not a fan of interludes.

New Wave by The Auteurs
Jun 12 2025

It gets boring after a couple of songs

Smile by Brian Wilson

It was fantastic. I really enjoyed this one, the songs, the Rhythms, the melodies, the splendid Guitar solos from Santana, the magical arrangements . Masterpiece !

OK Computer by Radiohead
Jun 18 2025

One of my favourite albums. Thom Yorke is amazing, the band sounds so unique and powerful. The songs are really authentic and original.

Jun 20 2025

Great songwriting and stories. Unfortunately every song gets into the same pattern, same style of singing , some harmonica riffs and rhythmic guitars. I was bored after a couple of songs.

Jun 26 2025

Just bot my Cup of tea

25 by Adele

I enjoyed this Album, it has a great mix of slow and up-tempo ballads. The lyrics and musicality are amazing and Adele’s voice is marvellous.

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
Jun 29 2025

The Synths are interesting but in general I felt this album was not for me.

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Jul 02 2025

Great Metal album, good songs , great riffs, chords, solos, stories and voices. The beast is here with all his power!

Cafe Bleu by The Style Council
Jul 03 2025

It was an interesting album. The combination of instrumental jazz Melodies and songs with vocals and mix of genres make it for me.

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Jul 05 2025

Such a joyful album. What can I say about it , it’s the Beatles! Great instrumentation, interesting storytelling, good harmonies that stick with you. Something I’ll keep on listening.

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Jul 06 2025

Boring album. After a couple of songs you’ve already hear everything. Strings sound phenomenal though in this album. Good lyrics and songwriting, but his voice and style becomes too repetitive.

Jul 07 2025

Without Tainted Love this album will have nothing to offer. I did not like it.

Live And Dangerous by Thin Lizzy
Jul 08 2025

Boys are back in town ! Powerful live album. Rock !

The Predator by Ice Cube
Jul 09 2025

I like the rhymes and Rythms. It has good flows and combines different sounds.

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Jul 10 2025

Nothing for me. But you can hear they are good musicians.

1977 by Ash
Jul 11 2025

Teenage album with rock/punk songs. Feels like it did not age well.

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Jul 12 2025

Nothing from this album grab me. The song covers are not as good as the originals, I was always missing vocals.

Woodface by Crowded House
Jul 13 2025

I enjoyed this one. It simple, effective, creative and young. My favourites: chocolate cake and weather with you .

Jul 14 2025

Such an interesting album, I love to listen to it. The mix of different sounds , harmonies , well structured lyrics make it such a piece of history for my ears. This enormous band has influence so many others , and definitely this was a breakthrough in their career and in music history.

Smash by The Offspring
Jul 15 2025

It was not as great as expected. Some hits, but most of the songs are leftovers and did not age well.

Bandwagonesque by Teenage Fanclub
Jul 17 2025

I didn’t connect with this album or band. Nothing from it got my attention, nor the music, neither the lyrics.

The Good, The Bad & The Queen by The Good, The Bad & The Queen
Jul 18 2025

I like Damon but somehow this album was boring to listen. I cannot separate Damon from other projects, he always sound kind of the same and same style of songs. I wanted to like this one , but … Green fields and history song are the gems of the album

Tommy by The Who
Jul 20 2025

Long album , I did not enjoy it so much, it has some good moments though, and the concept of it find it original.

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Jul 21 2025

Piano album, it’s good as an instrumental and for relaxing purposes.

Jul 23 2025

It’s a good Album, refreshing and easy to listen. Sometimes vocals and melodies can get too repetitive, you know what you’re getting after a couple of songs, however the synths and guitar parts save the record.

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Jul 24 2025

Good and solid metal album. Hits like Paranoid, iron man, war pigs have prevailed for a reason. RIP Ozzy!

evermore by Taylor Swift
Jul 25 2025

A very boring and pretentious album. She tries so hard to show how diverse she can be, however, she fails and delivers a soulless record with no personality. Throughout the album she sings in lower ranges mixed with high notes that doesn’t really hit the point. For me Willow, and no body no crime are the good ones, the rest are pretty forgettable.

Tapestry by Carole King
Jul 26 2025

Such a gem! Lovely and brilliant. The lyrics , her voice , everything here creates a solid album. I love it from the beginning . No fillers, it just keeps getting better on every song.

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
Jul 27 2025

It has such a great start and then it keeps going down. Blue Orchid and My doorbell save the album.

Viva Hate by Morrissey
Jul 28 2025

Morrisey delivers what is expected, a bunch of melancholic, solemn and sad songs. His voice is unique and that’s for me the most memorable thing. I cannot separate this from his work with the Smiths.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel
Jul 29 2025

Sorry, but I don’t find this band good. It is the second album that I have to rate and for me it’s like bad church songs with very cheesy lyrics. I do not enjoy the voice of him and it’s too repetitive.

Soul Mining by The The
Jul 30 2025

It was interesting to hear the fusion of sounds, but nothing was remarkable to catch my attention.

Iron Maiden by Iron Maiden
Aug 03 2025

It’s a solid Album but not as great as the number of the Beast!

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
Aug 05 2025

What’s going on. His voice is really good and soothing. However, most of the songs are similar to What’s going on? Sometimes I could not ever tell the difference.

Fetch The Bolt Cutters by Fiona Apple
Aug 06 2025

Brilliant, provocative and raw. I enjoyed this album even though it took me some time to get into it. Experimental, creative, playful and powerful. Would listen to it again.

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park
Aug 07 2025

Good debut album. It marked a generation.

Aug 09 2025

Simple but effective and so much better than what they’re doing these days. You’ll find some of their greatest hits, some experimental alternative songs and other boring fillers in between.

Aja by Steely Dan
Aug 10 2025
Shleep by Robert Wyatt
Aug 11 2025

Experimental and Fusion of styles and sounds. I did not enjoy it, the vocalist voice was tiring after a couple of songs.

Rhythm Nation 1814 by Janet Jackson
Aug 14 2025

I like Janet but I feel this album does not age well. It was my first time listening to it, some parts were insteresting others boring. I was annoyed by the random instrumental sounds in some songs, which distracts you from the song (example all right with a bird or monkey sound).

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
Aug 15 2025

Splendid und marvellous. Great album, great lyrics, and a bunch of Bowie and his infinite creativity. I love it

Rio by Duran Duran
Aug 16 2025

This was an entertaining album. Very 80s and fun. Good instrumentation with synths and interesting lyrics.

Survivor by Destiny's Child
Aug 17 2025

I love the hits from this album. Beyoncé, Michelle and Kelly were on their best moment as a girl band. The album is pretty regular with a lot of fillers.

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Aug 18 2025
The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
Aug 19 2025

I did Not Like this. Repetitive, boring and nothing Special.

Debut by Björk
Aug 20 2025

It’s nothing for me. I recognized she is talented and creative, but for me is tiring listening to her voice and the way she sings.

The United States Of America by The United States Of America
Aug 21 2025

This was twisted and sinister. I felt I was hearing a horror film. I did not enjoy it but I recognize it should be good in the genre of they are able to produce in me those emotions and atmospheres.

Dry by PJ Harvey
Aug 22 2025

I like discovering her with this album. It is a great debut album with solid rock/ pop alternative songs. I like her songwriting and the raw emotions in some of her lyrics.

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading
Aug 23 2025

It was a good Album, what I enjoyed Most is his voice. Good lyrics , the Melodies are catching you and his voice is just a piece of heaven.

Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel
Aug 24 2025

Even though I know they are important for the music history. I don’t like their music. I do not connect with them. It is a bit boring and their voices are nothing special for me.

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Aug 25 2025

His songwriting is very simple, direct but effective. Most of the songs sound the same but somehow I was not bored. I do think 16 songs were too much, he could have made a better shorter album, but I liked the album and it was easy to listen to it.

On The Beach by Neil Young
Aug 26 2025

Not sure how I feel this album, certain parts were good, others felt too repetitive and boring. It’s not album that I would replay or add into my playlist.

69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields
Aug 27 2025

The longest album from this challenge. I could not finish it , don’t have enough time to listen to it.

Aug 29 2025

This album reminds me my teenage years. The first half of the album containing the hits from Korn is amazing, the songs, the lyrics, the transitions. The second half of the album the quality decreases and becomes something repetitive and songs that for me felt like fillers.

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis
Aug 30 2025

For the jazz lovers this would be a good one. A non jazz person it is difficult to listen to these albums, after a couple of songs it gets repetitive and boring. The type of music you will hear as background music on restaurant having a nice dinner.

Is This It by The Strokes
Aug 31 2025

This was a good debut Album. Even though is too repetitive at moments, it grows and from Someday on it just brings hits and powerful guitar and robotic vocals.

Kid A by Radiohead
Sep 02 2025

Radiohead cannot do wrong. Kid A is not an easy Album and that’s why it is so diverse, experimental and interesting. It is the first time that I’ve listened to it completely, and I just want to continue hearing it again , there are so many layers on each song. Absolutely recommended but be patient and explore with it.

Station To Station by David Bowie
Sep 03 2025

I was greatly surprised by this album. Bowie shows a wide a range of tones and musical influences. It was very interesting album to listen. I have a good time with it.

White Light / White Heat by The Velvet Underground
Sep 04 2025

This wasn’t an easy album or something I enjoyed. Most of the guitars are too distorted sounding just as noise. One song was too long without really catching my attention.

Boston by Boston
Sep 06 2025

More than a feeling, this was a mix of emotions. Good songs with nice solos, vocals and solid songwriting. I found it enjoyable and interesting.

Arc Of A Diver by Steve Winwood
Sep 07 2025

It was nice to hear this album. I was surprised by the sounds and different Melodies.

Scissor Sisters by Scissor Sisters
Sep 08 2025

I enjoyed listening to this album. It is playful, creative, provocative, easy listening and contains a good mix of disco sounds with different genres.

Let's Stay Together by Al Green
Sep 09 2025

His voice is full of soul. After a couple of songs you know what he’s going to deliver. Some songs sound the same but that’s not necessarily bad.

Shadowland by k.d. lang
Sep 14 2025

Her vocals are really good. Most of her songs are nostalgic and heartbreaking. I enjoy it but I don’t know if I would listen to it again.

Yeezus by Kanye West
Sep 15 2025
Sep 16 2025

Raw and sincere. His songwriting is magnificent and catchy at the same time. I enjoy his music, it gets through your veins and leaves you with a melancholy feeling.

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Sep 17 2025

Sounds like a Tribute to Black Sabath , some songs were interesting to listen, after a while it gets repetitive and boring.

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Sep 19 2025

I was really bored after a couple of songs, his style of singing in combination with his monotonous melodies were sleeping pills for me. I don’t doubt his talents but this is not for me.

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Sep 20 2025
Rip It Up by Orange Juice
Sep 22 2025

Good vibes and mix of instruments, voice and lyrics

Sep 23 2025

I did not enjoy this one, however I recognize the talent of the musicians and how they created their different songs with a mix of genres.

Tragic Songs of Life by The Louvin Brothers
Sep 25 2025

This is a very traditional country album. Literally contains all the cliches from the genre. If you’re a fan this will be your bible. I was bored quite quickly after a couple of songs, same way of singing and melodies. The voices harmonisation became a bit irritating after the first 3 songs.

Street Signs by Ozomatli
Oct 02 2025

Really good fusion of Latin rhythms with other styles. It was entertaining and creative, good instrumentation , lyrics and vocals.

Only By The Night by Kings of Leon
Oct 08 2025

I cannot decide if it’s a good or a bald album. For me It’s a mixed album. Half of it are catchy songs including the singles. Others are pretty forgettable songs. In general a regular album that can catch you at some moments.
