Popular Reviews

Tom Tom Club by Tom Tom Club

If all "isms" was a band this would be it. Not unlikable but clearly from the mond of someone that screams in supermarkets

Trans Europe Express by Kraftwerk

This reminds me of the first Nokia phones with the downloadable ringtones, everyone thought you were super cool because your 3310 could sound vaguely like the bond theme tune.

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival

When marrying your own sister, this is the music that's played. Maybe not my bucket of hot leaves.

Songs Of Love And Hate by Leonard Cohen

Oh no. I tried to block out the sound of an out of tune man trying to sing by drowning in my cup of tea

1-Star Albums (21)

All Ratings (198)

Faith by George Michael
Jun 01 2025

Great campy fun, doesn't draw me back to listen on the regular though.

The Score by Fugees
Jun 02 2025

Thought they only did about two songs before disappearing. Solid listen

Eliminator by ZZ Top
Jun 05 2025

Thought they were more 90's Metallica, how wrong I was lol.

Tragic Songs of Life by The Louvin Brothers
Jun 08 2025

Not really my cup of tea but nice to hear something I would have never selected myself.

Jun 10 2025

The album known for literally 2 songs is not bad but I feel it's been so overused in everything commercial. Sadly there music is not uplifting or happy at all and I think if I listened to it going to work I might be fired that day from an overabundance of clinical Coldplay sadness.

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Jun 11 2025

The album felt like it wanted to be from the 60's/70's but lacked the charm and feel of something that comes from that time. Overall it was nice listen but tries too hard to try to be something it cannot live up to.

The Bends by Radiohead
Jun 12 2025

Nice, slow and calming music, although that can be said for all their music. Generally don't listen to them that much as most of my music listening is going to work and I need something more upbeat. Still solid though

Smile by Brian Wilson
Jun 13 2025

This is a miss match of sounds akin to Ross from friends with his keyboard. I found it manic with no clear direction.

The Holy Bible by Manic Street Preachers
Jun 15 2025

This was an album that was everywhere when I was but a kid. Darker and heavier than the other far more upbeat previous offerings. This brought back many memories of drinking shitty cider in parks. Decent album, loosing a point for the taste of rancid cider i get in my mouth when I hear it.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Jun 17 2025

I didn't get time to listen. I know her work and like parts of it. She didn't smash into my life like she did with others so I'll be on the bench with a 3. It's hit and moss for me.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Jun 18 2025
Night Life by Ray Price
Jun 19 2025

Very relaxing, tells a good story. Could be put into a country Fallout playlist. Listening to this in the wasteland would go well

1984 by Van Halen
Jun 20 2025

One of those times that you listen to something fully expecting to have a new experience only to find out that you already knew and liked half the album but had zero idea who sang them.

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Jun 21 2025

It's ok. However this is my unpopular opinion. If Michael didn't change his race and turn himself into melting cheese, didn't have obvious mental issues and didn't squeak like a person that just stubbed their toe I don't think his music alone would have seen THAT much stardom

White Light by Gene Clark
Jun 22 2025

Too much jangle and not enough rhythm. No thank you

Heartattack And Vine by Tom Waits
Jun 23 2025

The man needs a good cough sweet and a pat on the back. It's like listening to someone slowly drowning from their own split.

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Jun 24 2025

It was pleasant enough. Guy really has a thing for school aged kids though, it was a "different time" but maybe not a better time. Nice songs, creepy feeling.

Jun 25 2025

I feel like I had heard that voice before but couldn't pinpoint where. Not bad songs, nice and light with a poppy 80's feel

Alien Lanes by Guided By Voices
Jun 26 2025

Not much to say frome on this one. I thought it was good

Sunshine Hit Me by The Bees
Jun 27 2025

It's like the music promises to go somewhere, maybe ramp up, maybe tell a story but it never gets going. I imagine it was nominated for album of the year by lots of dentists that needed new reception music.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jun 28 2025

Some Uni kids got together and decided that working wasn't for them, had a great idea that every single musical instrument will go together if you try hard enough. .. didn't try hard enough but all their friends said it was deep and meaningful, they felt proud and so did all of their support workers.

Wild Wood by Paul Weller
Jun 29 2025

Didn't get time to listen to much of this, nothing outrageous, nothing particularly interesting either. It was nice enough but didn't invoke any emotion in my either way.

A Little Deeper by Ms. Dynamite
Jun 30 2025

Solid entry, remember this being all over the radio when it came out. Influential? Pretty sure this lady was influenced by many more that came before her and although I do like the album I would not say it set a standard, it just followed a standard.

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
Jul 01 2025

Another good album by a great artist. The man is obviously on more drugs that I knew existed for a good chunk of his life and maybe that is the way to success in the music business

Legalize It by Peter Tosh
Jul 02 2025

A quiet and peaceful album that is not my cup of tea but was relaxing and pleasant enough to listen to for the experience

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane
Jul 03 2025

It's very 60's. This is free love and drugs before it became cool.

American Pie by Don McLean
Jul 04 2025

We all know the one song, why? Because it's the only one that's upbeat and has a bit of feeling to it. The other songs are a bit drab and slow. Not my gallon of milk.

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Jul 05 2025

When marrying your own sister, this is the music that's played. Maybe not my bucket of hot leaves.

evermore by Taylor Swift
Jul 07 2025

Taylor Swift churns through number one hits as quickly as American football players but this album is not as upbeat as her other albums but it's a nice listen but is not staying in my head.

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Jul 08 2025

Not my pale of bobbing apples. Gave it a go but failed to capture me.

Paris 1919 by John Cale
Jul 09 2025

Sounds like he would make great jingles for 60's or 70's sofa stores. Not my freshly ground mug of coffee.

Trans Europe Express by Kraftwerk
Jul 10 2025

This reminds me of the first Nokia phones with the downloadable ringtones, everyone thought you were super cool because your 3310 could sound vaguely like the bond theme tune.

Songs Of Love And Hate by Leonard Cohen
Jul 11 2025

Oh no. I tried to block out the sound of an out of tune man trying to sing by drowning in my cup of tea

Different Class by Pulp
Jul 12 2025

A good showing with plenty of good cups of tea.

So by Peter Gabriel
Jul 13 2025

Everything I did whilst listening to this turned into an 80's montage.

Jul 14 2025

Didn't get much time to listen to this. I know he has done some food stuff however he is apparently a horrendous person in real life and that had a part to play in not really putting much effort into listening to it 😜

The Stone Roses by The Stone Roses
Jul 15 2025

All-round good album, got some beats that bit and some that don't so much. It kept me entertained on my way to work and a few of the songs I will pick out and put in a playlist.

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
Jul 20 2025

Solid and great for a jog or cleaning the house

Infected by The The
Jul 21 2025

Pink is generally not my thing as it does come across as whining lol. Although a few food songs overall

Maggot Brain by Funkadelic
Jul 22 2025

Bit of Funk never hurt anyone. Got to be in a sassy mood to really get behind this though.

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Jul 24 2025

Top quality rock from a time when men were men and wore more eyeliner than most drag queens. Would recommend

Fear and Whiskey by Mekons
Jul 25 2025

If Pulp and The Streets had a baby but the mother had smoked and heavily drunk throughout, potentially taking meth resulting in a tone deaf whaling monster with zero rhythm being born, the parents gave it some instruments and left it locked away to create this.

Ctrl by SZA
Jul 28 2025

Ass, ass, ass and titties with lots of pussy and a good measure of the n word thrown in because when you want to sound like a cultured black woman in this genre apparently that how to portray oneself. I didn't hear anything that made me think of struggle or even an interesting life to sing about.

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Jul 29 2025

Ooookkkk it's a mash up of some sort of animal placed between instruments,an ape or maybe a small grouping of Raccoons wandering around and over them mixed with people that want be able to sing.

461 Ocean Boulevard by Eric Clapton
Aug 04 2025

Didn't even realise I actually liked Mr Clapton. One of those artists that I didn't realise did the songs he did.

The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monáe
Aug 05 2025

If R&B, funk and dance sat down and watched Disney Fantasia and decided to make music together.

Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Aug 06 2025

Honestly it's like listening to a mixture of nirvana, offspring a little smashing pumpkins with a splattering of other similar bands. Each song seems to be hitting a slightly different but familiar vibe

Celebrity Skin by Hole
Aug 07 2025

Ohhhhh so these are the guys that did THAT song. Had zero idea. Rest of the album is less like the first song and I found it kinda faded in my mind and I forgot I was listening to it. Some good some bland tracks

LP1 by FKA twigs
Aug 08 2025

I'm honestly not sure what to say about this. Good voice but strangely combined with beats that didn't compliment the voice or words. At least that's my two cents.

That's The Way Of The World by Earth, Wind & Fire
Aug 09 2025

I think without earth wind or fire I could not even make tea and for that reason, it gets 3 stars.

Fulfillingness' First Finale by Stevie Wonder
Aug 10 2025

I now see what all the fuss was about. I was blind before but now I can see. I think I might have been wearing my sunglasses indoors on this one.

Ragged Glory by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Aug 11 2025

I imagine if South Park wanted to stereotype country music, this would be it.

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
Aug 12 2025

They want to Panic at the disco, the Beatles but chat shit like the streets. It's a mess of specials needs kids given instruments and told to go wild n

Aug 13 2025

I see what they are going for. It's pop, edm, rock, all softly done and it's fairly catchy. Just would prefer if they lost one of the tags or leaned more on one than the other to give the band more identity.

Trio by Dolly Parton
Aug 14 2025

Dolly! A woman so unashamedly herself and happy in herself that you can't help but admire it. Nothing bad to say about this, it's wholesome, catchy and well produced and all 3 ladies can bloody sing. Just not my genre of music.

Copper Blue by Sugar
Aug 15 2025

It didn't feel like it was an inventing anything or pushing any boundaries. It felt safe and something that someone made as a job. So the cashier at the counter has always wanted to be a cashier and they are mostly thrilled to be serving almost everyone then there is the person who does it for money, these songs were the latter nothing wrong but nothing exciting.

Elephant by The White Stripes
Aug 16 2025

I like the songs everyone likes and I'm indifferent to the rest.

Clube Da Esquina by Milton Nascimento
Aug 17 2025

Zero idea what they are singing about but it's a nice mellow and relaxing melody.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Aug 19 2025

There are parts in many 70's films where there is some kind of strange mash up of jazz, a toldler with a snare and a lot of drugs that is there to suggest strange goings on, or a fever dream. This is that mess

Synchronicity by The Police
Aug 20 2025

What a very strange mix of music. I know the police but only ever heard the same song that any radio station ever puts on and thought that was their sound but these guys evidently try lots of new things.

Close To You by Carpenters
Aug 21 2025

Solid entries and liked most of the songs b

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Aug 23 2025

If you are taking drugs and need a relaxing comedown, this is it.

Beyond Skin by Nitin Sawhney
Aug 24 2025

Bollywood meets London, a cultural mix of Asian and European, just wish I knew what 50% of the words were in some songs.

Teenage Head by Flamin' Groovies
Aug 25 2025

Nothing bad but generic music of the time. Sounds that I'm really knocking it but it's just nothing special to me.

At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band
Aug 26 2025

Largely the same riff repeated over several songs with the odd "Oh lord" thrown in for food measure.

Blur by Blur
Aug 27 2025

Love a bit of blur. Helps me to concentrate bizarrely, given their name.

Let's Stay Together by Al Green
Aug 28 2025

If Quentin made another film this guy would probably be in it at some point.

Walking Wounded by Everything But The Girl
Aug 29 2025

The kind of music that's in a US sitcom that looks like it's from the 90's but is actually brand new, 2025. If Dido decided she wanted the tinny drum riff that come standard with a keyboard.

Moving Pictures by Rush
Aug 30 2025

If Ed, Edd and Eddy made a rock band, this is what I imagine it would sound like.

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
Aug 31 2025

Possibly the name of a band most pronounced incorrectly. Also sounds like the kind of person that would try to stop Gazza war by floating a tiny boat around

Aha Shake Heartbreak by Kings of Leon
Sep 01 2025

It's Kings of Leon, they had that one good song that was used to advertise around 40% of all products world wide until we all hated it.

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Sep 02 2025

It's ok. It's music and it's calming music but that's about it

Hearts And Bones by Paul Simon
Sep 03 2025

Like when you start singing gibberish in the shower, run out of stuff to rhyme and then change the entire beat to fit something else you've just seen.

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Sep 04 2025

If the police went to the country and decided to do some country music while they were there.

Live At The Star Club, Hamburg by Jerry Lee Lewis
Sep 05 2025

Wonder if the piano or Jerry are the mains stars of the show lol. Great every of music though

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Sep 06 2025

A standard rock experience that a lot of others paired to hit. It's good but it's a saturated market so sounds like I've heard it all before when in actual fact these guys made it first.

Sep 07 2025

Standard country with a tinny feel with a little nod in the direction of rock.

Toys In The Attic by Aerosmith
Sep 08 2025

Aeeosmith has a few songs I like over all albums but overall but generally all I can think of when listening to him is that him looks like claymation of a creature that swallows children. Creepy

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Sep 09 2025

Mixing almost a blues sound with some poppy rock.

BEYONCÉ by Beyoncé
Sep 10 2025

Overrated drama queen.

From Elvis In Memphis by Elvis Presley
Sep 11 2025

Don't get on with Presley myself. Nothing wrong with it but I feel his songs largely sound like he is having a stroke have way through.

Feast of Wire by Calexico
Sep 12 2025

Sounds like music from a computer game cutsceen

Sep 14 2025

If I'm ever playing a game with a confusing drug screen where pink panther keeps jumping out and opening doors, for them to be a cartoon world that you spiral into, I'll think of this b

System Of A Down by System Of A Down
Sep 15 2025

Marmite band. For me however I find it a difficult listen.

Play by Moby
Sep 16 2025

We had a special needs section of our junior school and we named those kids "Moby's". It was in the 80's and we were all far more cruel than now, but that's what I think about now.

Os Mutantes by Os Mutantes
Sep 18 2025

Quick fire to catch up. - Try hard

Goodbye And Hello by Tim Buckley
Sep 21 2025

If I took drugs and had a shower, this would be what I sang.

Manassas by Stephen Stills
Sep 22 2025

The drummer needs extra lessons.

Dookie by Green Day
Sep 24 2025

I'm listening to this while taking a dookie.

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Sep 25 2025

Only like one song from the beech boys and we all know which one.

Bubble And Scrape by Sebadoh
Sep 26 2025

Owww poor little lad. He has a case of the "cookie at me I'm all sad because I'm useless". Hope he finds something he is good at, singing isn't it.

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Sep 27 2025

I think this maybe piano but might need another listen to make sure b

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Sep 30 2025

Janis need some D..... Stat!

Liquid Swords by GZA
Oct 02 2025

Get a riff, repeat it while rapping about being hard.

Dr. Octagonecologyst by Dr. Octagon
Oct 05 2025

Wow, Ross from friends with a friend that thinks they can rap.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Oct 07 2025

Like a bit of Fleetwood.

OK by Talvin Singh
Oct 08 2025

Is noise

Shadowland by k.d. lang
Oct 10 2025

Too slow for my likely.

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Oct 11 2025

Meat loaf. I would do anything for love but I won't give 5 stars !

Good Old Boys by Randy Newman
Oct 12 2025

Always sounds like he isn't interested.

Teenager Of The Year by Frank Black
Oct 15 2025

He rhythm abstract house with abstract mouse. 5 star

Astral Weeks by Van Morrison
Oct 17 2025

This man needs some tits n ass cause he is missing even hugs!

On The Beach by Neil Young
Oct 18 2025

Cuppa, this is not.

Oct 19 2025

French, so that's a point lost there. I don't mind the beat and the pace but with out having any idea what he is saying it might as well be someone huming.

Pornography by The Cure
Oct 21 2025

Not for me. I found the lead singers voice to be constantly distorted with an echo oraybe reverb affect which comes across as like listening to a mouse or a screaming cat.

m b v by My Bloody Valentine
Oct 22 2025

Human music. Human music for a pixel game I would imagine. Could be good in the right setting

Moss Side Story by Barry Adamson
Oct 26 2025

Totally see why he is known for cinematic music. All of this could be or probably has been featured in films. Personally I don't go for instrumental only music very often.

Queen II by Queen
Oct 27 2025

Love a bit of queen. Top man, top songs.

Rapture by Anita Baker
Oct 29 2025
The Next Day by David Bowie
Oct 31 2025

Always love David. Said it before and I'll say it again, that bulge in Labyrinth was traumatic when I was a kid

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Nov 01 2025

No thank you.

Peter Gabriel 3 by Peter Gabriel
Nov 05 2025

Known for having the name of an angel but not angelic to me.

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Nov 06 2025

I will wail on these guys until the sun comes home. Some decent tracks

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Nov 08 2025

Not my think but got to give it to that woman, she is the life and soul of a party

Tom Tom Club by Tom Tom Club
Nov 10 2025

If all "isms" was a band this would be it. Not unlikable but clearly from the mond of someone that screams in supermarkets

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
Nov 11 2025

Always liked a bit of Jimi, from a different era of drugs, women and Epstein islands.

Darklands by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Nov 12 2025

Get a drummer that knows how to do more than that one set of banging lmao. Once I heard it, could not unhear.

Time (The Revelator) by Gillian Welch
Nov 13 2025

If the hills have eyes, they are listening to this while watching you

Time Out Of Mind by Bob Dylan
Nov 14 2025

He is an icon, zero idea why but here is is.

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Nov 15 2025

Dolly gets 4 starts simply by being unapologeticly herself and always looking like she is having a great time. That woman has a laugh and a wake

The Chronic by Dr. Dre
Nov 17 2025

Dr Dre nurtures new talent, makes and produces music and so far not a bottle of baby oil in sight!

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Nov 18 2025

If I'm ever in a "We travelled back in time" or a Star Trek "I'm stuck on the holodeck and it won't let me out until I solve this 1930's crime novel" then I'll know what to put on.

Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
Nov 27 2025
Dub Housing by Pere Ubu
Dec 12 2025

If I didn't have a headache before, I do now!

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Dec 13 2025

Solid songs, solid band with a mix of meh. All in all it good but not amazing.

21 by Adele
Dec 14 2025

Great voice but soooo over rated. Plus all up for body positivity until ozempic came around.

Guero by Beck
Dec 15 2025

Perfectionist
