Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand

it sounded like they had a formula they were going for and got it right once with Take Me Out

Faith by George Michael
Aug 14 2025
The Bends by Radiohead
Aug 21 2025

Decent, but I am not the biggest Radiohead fan.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Sep 08 2025
OK Computer by Radiohead
Sep 10 2025

Between a 4 and a 5, but the production really brings this entire album home for me. It does help that this album contains my probably favourite Radiohead songs (Let Down and No Surprises).

Quiet Life by Japan
Sep 11 2025

Good drums and interesting bassline in some parts.

Disintegration by The Cure
Sep 15 2025

Introspective, moody, but not a fun time to listen to while running. "Songs about happiness murmured in dreams And we both of us knew how the ending would be"

Kilimanjaro by The Teardrop Explodes
Jan 20 2026

Rather boring, nothing memorable.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Jan 28 2026

Truth by Jeff Beck

Great guitar, have to relisten.

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Feb 24 2026

Decent, but the only hit from the album is the only thing which is memorable to me.

Peggy Suicide by Julian Cope
Feb 27 2026

Really not for me, some decent stuff but nothing to grip you

The Gershwin Songbook by Ella Fitzgerald
Mar 02 2026

Such a fun time... Could imagine myself listening to this while doing some chores. #relisten

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Mar 03 2026

Good, I might give it another go #relisten

Trafalgar by Bee Gees
Mar 04 2026

Honestly weak, sounds like Beatles B sides

Pornography by The Cure
Mar 09 2026

Not bad at all - very cold, gothic and depressing (everything I understand The Cure to be), but I might not be in the right moment in life to fully enjoy this (it's sunny outside at the end of the day :).

Rip It Up by Orange Juice
Mar 12 2026

forgettable

really not a fan

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
May 05 2026

great album, but some moments are kooky

Dirty by Sonic Youth
May 14 2026
Let Love Rule by Lenny Kravitz
May 18 2026

Some decent moments, but felt very derivative (palpable Hendrix influences). Cool guy, decent musician - a much lesser version of Prince. 2.5

Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear
May 20 2026

I liked this album, but I probably won't be listening to this ever again.

Wild Wood by Paul Weller
May 21 2026

Could probably name you two tracks from this album after three relistens. 2.5, rounding up

1999 by Prince
May 26 2026

it's Prince

Smile by Brian Wilson
May 27 2026

i liked bits and pieces, but it rather unremarkable

Bone Machine by Tom Waits
May 28 2026

After over 130 albums, my first 1 Funny enough, I liked some of the stuff near the end, but that was too few too late.

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road by Lucinda Williams
May 29 2026

There are some really good moments, but many of the songs suffer from repetitive choruses.

Debut by Björk
Jun 01 2026
Back In Black by AC/DC
Jun 03 2026

i guess if all the songs are gonna sound the same it's better that they are all bangers

Aja by Steely Dan
Jun 05 2026

love this album

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jun 06 2026

first half of the album is decent (kinda mid), but everything from the title track and after is amazing

Cloud Nine by The Temptations
Jun 18 2026

#relisten

Smash by The Offspring
Jun 21 2026

really not a fan, most of it sounded the same to me

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
Jun 27 2026

it sounded like they had a formula they were going for and got it right once with Take Me Out

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Jul 04 2026

fun album, 3.5 (rounding up)

Time Out Of Mind by Bob Dylan
Jul 12 2026

sounded like he was trying to rip off himself from earlier in his career

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Jul 18 2026

Even though I liked the material on the second half of the album, this is something that definitely did not meet expectations.

En-Tact by The Shamen
Jul 19 2026

Some decent stuff, but I feel like the vocals took a lot from the project overall.

2112 by Rush
Jul 21 2026
Fun House by The Stooges
Jul 23 2026

not bad, just not memorable either

Now I Got Worry by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
Jul 26 2026

hahaha hot shit

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Jul 27 2026

one of the most important jazz albums ever, but I am not big on fusion

Strange Cargo III by William Orbit
Jul 29 2026

I imagine this is what the highest-calibre of background music sounded like in the 90s. Reminded me of Enigma, 3.5 rounding up.

Solid Air by John Martyn
Jul 31 2026

Very interesting, will definitely #relisten.

Remain In Light by Talking Heads
Aug 02 2026

I've listened to this album a lot of times and I could never figure out why it's rated so highly. One great song, the other stuff is just boring and unmemorable.
