Exile In Guyville by Liz Phair
Aug 13 2025

2] Feminism, horrible vocals or plain out talking (Like modern lovers). Some melodies were nice, but bad lyrics killed it. +Mesmerizing +Glory

Two Dancers by Wild Beasts
Aug 14 2025

Decent background of artsy rock music. No song stuck in mind. Didn't finish the whole album

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Aug 15 2025

Old soul/funk, easy listen, social statements about racism. However, extensive intrumental interludes bloats the playlist, especially at the end. Good window in contemporary's feelings and worldview, but hardly holds up in 2020s. +Somebody's watching you +Everyday people

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Aug 18 2025

Good soul album, soundrack for movie. Good vocals. However, the songs are too long and as a whole is bloated with alternative versions as usual in soundtracks. +Freddie's dead

New Forms by Roni Size
Aug 19 2025

Electronic, drum n bass pioneers. Interesting addition in african drums, overall good instrumentals. Good ideas but hardly a daily listen, would greatly benefit from vocals, 2020s rap? Didn't listen to the whole tracklist. +Heroes

Let It Be by The Replacements
Aug 20 2025

Good energetic rock album, easy listen. Might not be very extraordinary, but not in the bad way. +I will dare +Androgynous

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
Aug 21 2025

Good soul / rock n roll album. Pleasant listen all throughout. However, includes some bloated songs without significant change of pace, melody or style. +Mannish boy

Aug 22 2025

Listened before. Practically every song is iconic, sincere, but not forced. Beautifully combined conversation snippets. Surprisingly good instrumentals compared to peers (producer?). However, some snippets overstay their welcome, song becomes chaotic. + So Many Tears + Temptations + Dear Mama

Dirty by Sonic Youth
Aug 25 2025

Hard rock album. Instrumental interludes are taking away from the songs (older trend). A try of reviving punk scene, for me - unsuccessful.

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Aug 27 2025

Suprisingly amazing combination of indie rock and electronic music. While album includes alternate versions of 4 songs, their accoustic nature amplifies soft vocals to the point where they are better compared to original versions. While rating it 4 would be logical, since I see little chance of relistening the whole project, it includes Head Will Rolls - it's a 5. +Heads will roll +Soft shock (acoustic)

Junkyard by The Birthday Party
Aug 29 2025

Dumb noisy rock.

Murmur by R.E.M.
Aug 30 2025
Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Sep 09 2025

Beautifully combined soul and pop in final songwriter's album. Stunning vocals and troubled lyrics. However album is inconsistent in its quality (deluxe version), shorter project would have improved listening. Some melodies are very quirky, while others are complementary, letting vocals shine. +Rehab +Back to black +Valerie

Kilimanjaro by The Teardrop Explodes
Sep 10 2025

Forgetable rock.
