Caetano Veloso by Caetano Veloso

Harmless Brazilian pop. Don't think I'll ever listen to it again, but didn't hate it.

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Jun 15 2025
Rio by Duran Duran
Jun 16 2025

A 3.5 taken to a 4 by the sheer awesomeness of Hungry Like the Wolf

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Jun 18 2025
Live! by Fela Kuti
Jun 21 2025

Closer to a 3.5, not quite a 4. Really fun and interesting but not one I'm really eager to relisten

Let's Get Killed by David Holmes
Jun 22 2025

Reading some reviews I expected to hate it, but it's a really fun record. Perfect for background music. Plus, there's a great remix of the James Bond theme (Radio 7).

Caetano Veloso by Caetano Veloso

Harmless Brazilian pop. Don't think I'll ever listen to it again, but didn't hate it.

Ananda Shankar by Ananda Shankar
Jun 26 2025

Really fun and interesting. Definitely not for everyone, but it surely is for me!

Moby Grape by Moby Grape
Jun 27 2025

Not terrible, not great. Just some pretty standard 60s pop. Lazy me is quite good though.

The Coral by The Coral
Jun 29 2025

Where has this album been all my life, that was so fun!

...The Dandy Warhols Come Down by The Dandy Warhols
Jun 30 2025

Albums like this are what makes this project worth it. Don't know if or when I would have listened to this. But now it might become a new favorite!

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Jul 01 2025

Helper, Thumb and Going Home were really good, but the rest was one big slug.

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Jul 02 2025

Never heard of this artist before, but this is a really fun, original and interesting record. Highly recommend! Reminds me of some early Janelle Monae.

E.V.O.L. by Sonic Youth
Jul 04 2025

A 3.5/5. Probably my least favorite Sonic Youth album so far, but it's still pretty good.

Metallica by Metallica
Jul 05 2025

Really Really good album, but a bit too long. Should have ended with Nothing Else Matters.

Dog Man Star by Suede
Jul 07 2025

Mostly uninteresting, but The Asphalt World is a great song.

Dookie by Green Day
Jul 10 2025

That was boring.

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Jul 11 2025

Pretty good, bit too long. 3.5/5.

Cypress Hill by Cypress Hill
Jul 13 2025

Fun, but far from a favorite of the rap genre. 3.5/5

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Jul 15 2025

Would be a 3 but Number and Hills are such great songs, they bump it to a 4.

Parachutes by Coldplay
Jul 17 2025

Amazing debut, almost a 5 but knowing that they're next 3 albums are all better I'll give it a 4

Joan Baez by Joan Baez
Jul 18 2025

Pretty fun but nothing remarkable. 3.5/5

Hounds Of Love by Kate Bush
Jul 20 2025

One of the greatest album of all time. Completely unique, nothing else sounds like it. It won't show in the ranking here, but just how I like to add a .5 to some albums, a select few will brake the scale and receive a 6. This is the first one. There aren't many perfect songs, but Cloudbusting is one of them. A true masterpiece, might be the best album of the eighties.

Vivid by Living Colour
Jul 21 2025

Good, but not really my thing. Should listen to it more. Cult is great tho. 3.5/5

Midnight Ride by Paul Revere & The Raiders
Jul 23 2025

Pretty fun and Kicks is a great song. 3.5/5

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Jul 24 2025

Rest in peace Ozzy. Thank you for the music.

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Jul 26 2025

4.5/5. Really Really good but not quite Pink Moon level good

Eliminator by ZZ Top
Jul 28 2025

I knew and loved the hits. But, this is a really fun album all throughout.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Jul 30 2025

4.5/5. Really good, but I think I prefer Thriller and Bad a bit more, and those tow are fives.

Berlin by Lou Reed
Jul 31 2025

Another one of my 6/5. This album rivals VU & Nico for me. The music, the storytelling, the lyrics, everything is perfect. One of the saddest and greatest album of all time.

Power In Numbers by Jurassic 5
Aug 02 2025

Fun album, better than I expected. 3.5/5

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Aug 03 2025
Modern Kosmology by Jane Weaver
Aug 04 2025

Really interesting album, totally not what I expected.

Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys
Aug 05 2025

One of the absolute greatest rap albums of all time. Groundbreaking sampling.

Suzanne Vega by Suzanne Vega
Aug 06 2025

I knew of, and quite liked, Tom's Dinner but this really surprised me with how great it was. She's got a new fan in me

Electric by The Cult
Aug 07 2025

Why is this on here? What a stupid waste of time

Hearts And Bones by Paul Simon
Aug 08 2025

A nice and fun little palette cleanser after the atrocity that was Electric by The Cult

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Aug 09 2025

Quite good, but there are some of her vocal inflection that gets on my nerves a bit. But still, it's good and I'm curious to listen to more form her. 3.5/5

Signing Off by UB40
Aug 10 2025

Really fun and interesting. 4.5/5

Diamond Life by Sade
Aug 13 2025

Not bad, but definitely not my kind of stuff. Smooth operator is dope tho.2.5/5

Porcupine by Echo And The Bunnymen
Aug 15 2025

A really good album, I remembered liking it years back but it's even better than I remember. Not a top tier of that era and genre, but pretty up there.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Sep 11 2025
Orbital 2 by Orbital
Sep 12 2025

A really fun electronic/house/dance album. Perfect to put in the background while gaming.

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Sep 13 2025

Really really fantastic album. Listening to his old stuff, make's it all the more depressing to know how he turned out. Still, this is one of the greatest rap albums ever, and he gets even better later. 4.5/5

Maverick A Strike by Finley Quaye
Sep 14 2025

Pretty forgettable, not the worst thing I've heard but not that far off.

The Score by Fugees
Sep 16 2025

I think this just became my favorite rap album ever. Jesus it's so fucking good.

Hysteria by Def Leppard
Sep 17 2025

Stupid cock rock

2112 by Rush
Sep 18 2025

The title track is one of the greatest things in music history, but that also means that the rest of the album pretty much doesn't compare, even if it's still pretty good.

Ogden's Nut Gone Flake by Small Faces
Sep 21 2025

More of a 2.5/5. First half was fine but second half really droped off. I don't necessarily hate narration as a concept, Terry Allen does it very well, but it really sucks here.

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Sep 22 2025
All Things Must Pass by George Harrison
Sep 23 2025

I love Ram and Plastic Ono Band. Ringo, Imagine and Band on the Run are all great. But All Things Must Pass is just on another level of transcendent greatness. It's so fucking good. To think he had a lot of these songs in the bank and he was still limited to 2 or 3 songs by albums is just ludicrous. Another one of my 6/5 stars.
