Different Class by Pulp
Aug 17 2025

Fucking banging, not a bad song on the album. Sheffields king of sexy kitchen sink verse covers topics such as shagging, class politics and getting off your nut. 9/10

Ramones by Ramones
Aug 26 2025

Brilliant songs, fast, funny and dumb. New York’s daftest sons absolutely smash it. Favourite songs on this listen were Judy is a punk and Havana affair.

461 Ocean Boulevard by Eric Clapton
Aug 27 2025

Fucking hate this prick. Dull uninspired music from a dull uninspired man. All skill no soul. Blues lawyer music, no thanks.

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Sep 02 2025

Banging. The way I swaggered into work after this should be a HR violation. Love it.

Sep 03 2025

Why bother writing good tunes when you have your pal freaking out on the flute. Some cool organ work and the opening track wasn’t bad, and then they started singing songs. The title track is quite good though, burns poem turned folk song. Irritating flute remains present however.

The Soft Bulletin by The Flaming Lips
Sep 04 2025

So so so beautiful. Perfect blend of experimental and wonderful songwriting, listened to it driving to Nottingham and we saw a rainbow. Trancendental.

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
Sep 05 2025

Pleasant driving music, laughed and sang along when “without you” came on unexpectedly. Was horrified when the “lime in de coconut” song began blasting out with all the Mike Read energy. An interesting album, don’t like all of it but quite enjoyed listening to it.

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Sep 06 2025

Yeah fucking sick as fuck, first and and nib are mint. Let’s fucking go

Dookie by Green Day
Sep 09 2025

I declare I don’t care no more! Fucking brilliant, love it from start to finish. 90’s green day is great and this is probably the best of it.

Tigermilk by Belle & Sebastian
Sep 11 2025

Lovely stuff

Van Halen by Van Halen
Sep 12 2025

It is what it is

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Sep 14 2025
Moving Pictures by Rush
Sep 15 2025

Big fat no from me. Silly without giving me any joy. Makes Bubbles happy though, so there’s that.

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Sep 16 2025

Belting, always love talking heads. Toe tapping and funky, clever and funny and man what a voice. Life during wartime could raise me from the dead.

I Against I by Bad Brains
Sep 17 2025

Let’s fucking go, bad brains dialling up the guitar rock gives us this belter of an album. Brilliant songs, with some top positivity through hardcore lyrics. “Keep thy heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life.” Mint.

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Sep 18 2025

Against all my better judgement about how this album seems to me, I really fucking like it. I find something incredibly endearing about the overblown romantic declarations in the title track. Also paradise by the dashboard light slaps, containing both an earworm of a chorus and the stupidest fucking bridge I’ve ever heard in a song. Love it.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Sep 19 2025

Liam Gallagher claims ownership of the words “sunshine” and “lasagna”. Noel Gallagher couldn’t have done a better job writing these songs. Shame they’re blue bastards. Perfect.

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
Sep 20 2025

A few good moments, but not an exciting album really. And from a brilliant band, what can ya do.

Electric by The Cult
Sep 21 2025

Boring, I was bored.

Superunknown by Soundgarden
Sep 22 2025

His voice grates on me, a few cool riffs but essentially not for me

Endtroducing..... by DJ Shadow
Sep 23 2025

Sounds like I’ve bought a 20 bag in the mid 2000’s. Weird considering I was 9 when it came out. Tight buds, inner city pubs and adidas clothes. Top album, love it.

Suicide by Suicide
Sep 24 2025

Alan Vega rock and rolls over throbbing synth fuckery. Brilliant.

Nick Of Time by Bonnie Raitt
Sep 25 2025

This was not very good at all.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Sep 26 2025

Yeah fucking absolutely mint, listened to it while playing Jenga. Maxwells silver hammer is fucking stupid, every other track is astounding. Can’t not give it 5

Arrival by ABBA
Sep 27 2025

Obvs knowing me knowing you is sick, but nah. Only scanned through it but I’m not listening to all that.

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Sep 29 2025

Yeah really like this album, the bangers bang. rich, pin and date with the night are top tier. And the slow song is a perfect slow song. Karen oh my god, you get 4 out of 5!

Morrison Hotel by The Doors
Sep 30 2025

Shades on, arm hanging out of the window, everyone on the M18 wants to shag me. Good driving music, enjoyed this album. First track and peace frog very good.

Kenza by Khaled
Oct 01 2025

Boring

Oct 02 2025

Flawless album from Sheffields top shagger/wordsmith/gyrater Fantastic selection of tracks with a wonderful sound to them, slow burn epic torch song vibes.

Roots by Sepultura
Oct 03 2025

Cool riffs and Brazilian folk metal, enjoyed it!

american dream by LCD Soundsystem
Oct 05 2025

Weakest album by them, still really good. But yeah doesn’t reach that level.

Odelay by Beck
Oct 06 2025

Brilliant set of songs, really stands up to repeated listens. Brothers and sisters just clap your hands

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Oct 07 2025

Had a great time listening to this, a few of the soul songs on here have better versions but this seems a minor quibble. Great voice and wonderful songs.

My Aim Is True by Elvis Costello
Oct 08 2025

A masterclass in sardonic songwriting. Elvis is king.

Heartattack And Vine by Tom Waits
Oct 09 2025

Sing it Tom, is there better Tom waits albums? Absolutely, but this still gets a 5.

Bad by Michael Jackson
Oct 10 2025

Some of the tracks are brilliant, they are. It just leaves me a bit cold, dirty Diana is sick as owt like

Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
Oct 12 2025

Cool album, some good songwriting and that 60’s “freak out the squares” vibe which I quite enjoy. Not as bogged down in guitar solos as some of his other stuff. Made me think about how the weed they smoked was nowhere near as strong as the weed we have now. They had blocks of plant matter full of stems and seeds, but they was appeh.

Supa Dupa Fly by Missy Elliott
Oct 13 2025

Wanted to like it, but it didn’t grab me

Be by Common
Oct 14 2025

Enjoyed it! Intro was sick as fuck.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Oct 15 2025

It’s fine, music to put on while thinking about other stuff

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Oct 16 2025

Yeah brilliant, lovely to have on. Love nowhere man, Michelle, in my life. Not a band song. Beep beep…..beep beep yeah! (Norweg)Ian would recommend.

Viva Hate by Morrissey
Oct 17 2025

Love it, not my favourite from Moz but a brilliant album with some of my favourite songs. Hard to give a proper review to someone whose work you’ve fully internalised for decades. Shame he turned into stretford hitler.

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Oct 18 2025

Fucking yeah well good, loads of bangers

Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Oct 19 2025

Absolutely astounding, #1 best cool guy so far. My best guy in the list, top lad. This is a song about a superhero named Tony, it’s called Tony’s theme. Yes Kim.

Risque by CHIC
Oct 20 2025

As Nile Rodger’s bangers flow through my kitchen on a Sunday morning I think to myself, Ian you’re a dancer. Let’s go.

Ill Communication by Beastie Boys
Oct 21 2025

It’s a belter, always fun emphasising words like a fourth beastie boy

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears
Oct 22 2025

Hate the opening track, the rest of it was good. The very good songs were very good. I’m very tired. Bwaaaa

Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones
Oct 24 2025

Nearly didn’t bother listening, but yeah it’s very good.

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
Oct 26 2025

Fucking sick, jump n shout is great. Really enjoyed listening to this
