Songs From A Room by Leonard Cohen

Wow. starts as a 3, but then is too whiny.

Triangle by The Beau Brummels

Wow. A 5 so far

1-Star Albums (13)

All Ratings (256)

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Aug 20 2025

Arabian Nights! The album reminds me of Transvision Vamp. No wonder, also British from the same era. Solid 3 in the beginning, but drops down to a 2. Don’t like it that much

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Aug 21 2025

Solid. Probably a 3, but kind of all tracks sound the same. Like Beatles x Simon and Garfunkel. Goes towards 2.

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Aug 22 2025

First track is already quite good. A 4 so far. Keeps going that way. Nice.

xx by The xx
Aug 25 2025

Lovely. First track is a 5. Falls to a mediocre 2 quickly. Still nice and melodic.

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Aug 26 2025

That’s what I call a classic. Starts out as a 4. Will probably be a 3 eventually, despite the hits. Paranoid. Iron Man. Drops to a 3. Stays there. Good album. Not sure how it’s considered the beginning of heavy metal?

Killing Joke by Killing Joke
Aug 27 2025

Lovely. I really like the first track. Punk x Hard Rock. A 4. Second track also sounds great. Continues like that. Will be a 3 nevertheless.

Bitte Orca by Dirty Projectors
Aug 28 2025

Hm. This might be a long 41 minutes. Maybe a 2 for the first song with a lot of goodwill. My guess is it’s going to be a 1. Yep. A 1. Hate it

Gold by Ryan Adams
Aug 29 2025

Melodic. Will be a 3. Solid. Quite entertaining, but not more.

Tommy by The Who
Sep 01 2025

Clear 5

I Should Coco by Supergrass
Sep 02 2025

Great first track. Starting strong with a 4. Lovely album. Great britpop. Like madness, with less ska. I didn’t know that Alright was a track on here or by them, which is a 5. Overall a 4.

The Dreaming by Kate Bush
Sep 03 2025

Ah well. A 3.Maybe not even. Not that exciting. I get the experimental stuff etc but wouldn’t want to listen to it again. Will be a 2.

Konnichiwa by Skepta
Sep 04 2025

I don’t like rap. But I think this is a 3, perhaps even a 4. A solid 3 it is.

Dig Your Own Hole by The Chemical Brothers
Sep 05 2025

Outstanding start. My guess is a 4 at the moment. Really nice, definitely a 4. Perhaps a 5.

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
Sep 09 2025

That’s another 5. Classic again.

Closer by Joy Division
Sep 10 2025

Listening to the master instead of the 2007 remaster. Sounds interesting. But no five stars yet, I would guess a 3. Perhaps it’s going to grow on me? You can hear how they will become New Order.

Repeater by Fugazi
Sep 12 2025

Solid 3 to start out, becomes a 2. Ok, but not more.

The Specials by The Specials
Sep 15 2025

Wow. Track 1 and it is going towards a five. That’s great stuff. What an amazing discovery. Goes down to a 4, the flow is a bit off. Don’t know how else to put it. Too good for a 3, not good enough for a 5. Has great potential, but it doesn’t seem coherent. Falls to a 3 towards the end

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Sep 16 2025

Ok. That’s going to be great. Starts strong with a 4-5. We will see. Thinking 4. Moving to 3. Gets weaker as we go along.

Highly Evolved by The Vines
Sep 18 2025

Nirvana is what I thought. A 3. Some are really good though.

Ten by Pearl Jam
Sep 22 2025

Shooting for a 3 on this one.

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Sep 23 2025

Like it so far. Starts with a 4. Ends as a 3.

GI by Germs
Sep 24 2025

Very promising start as a 4. Will end up there. Wild and raw and fast and loud. In your face punk. Great for MAGA rallies

Sweet Baby James by James Taylor
Sep 25 2025

Always good. Probably a 4. Not as good as some other James Taylor. Maybe only a 3. I think it’s ok. 3.

With The Beatles by Beatles
Sep 29 2025

4 or 5. Outstanding. Final verdict: 5.

Coles Corner by Richard Hawley
Oct 01 2025

Very promising first track. A 5. Then a 4. Solid 4. Very nice. But maybe only a 3.

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly
Oct 02 2025

Going to be a 4 because of the B-side. Very 60ish. Reminds me of The Doors and The Who. And City from East Germany. Now where’s that LSD stash when you need it?

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Oct 03 2025

Lovely. Great stuff. But a 3 for me. This ain’t Thriller.

Guero by Beck
Oct 07 2025

Once is probably enough. Might end up as a 2. Some nice tracks, but overall I don’t like it.

The Grand Tour by George Jones
Oct 08 2025

Holy shot. That is just great. A 3.

The Undertones by The Undertones
Oct 09 2025

Starts as a 4. Remains a 4.

Arrival by ABBA
Oct 10 2025

Well, only a 5 will do here.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Oct 13 2025

A solid 3. Maybe 4. Leaning towards a 4 and will listen to it again.

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Oct 14 2025

Starts out as a 5. Continues as a 5. It’s Bob Dylan. Outstanding album, loved it.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Oct 15 2025

Nice history behind this album. Canned crowd noise. Janis Joplin! A 4? And what a cover. Open, a 5. Way too many hits on here.

Unhalfbricking by Fairport Convention
Oct 16 2025

Melodic. A 3. But not really my thing. Two songs of that album maybe. So probably a 2.

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Oct 21 2025

A clear 5. It’s even in mono. I skipped the 1997 tracks.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Oct 22 2025

Oh my. Probably a 4. I think another 5.

The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground
Oct 24 2025

A lovely 4. Because of Lou Reed. Perhaps a 5. Because of There She Goes Again.

Remain In Light by Talking Heads
Oct 27 2025

I bet another 5. Yep. Great album.

Murmur by R.E.M.
Oct 28 2025

4. Hands down. Not their best though.

The Clash by The Clash
Oct 30 2025

5. Great album

3?

Doolittle by Pixies
Nov 11 2025

Starts out as a 4. Remains there. Like it. I would buy this as a cassette tape.

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Nov 12 2025

Don’t care for it it that much. A 2.

Talk Talk Talk by The Psychedelic Furs
Nov 13 2025

That will be interesting. A2 or 3? Mr Jones? A 2

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Nov 14 2025

2

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Nov 18 2025

A 5. Adding to my list of CDs to buy.

Basket of Light by Pentangle
Nov 19 2025

Interesting. A 3 perhaps? At most. Might only be a 2. A one

Bad Company by Bad Company
Nov 20 2025

A 3. Title track is iconic.

Cut by The Slits
Nov 21 2025

Ah, ok. A2, maybe.

A 4 or 5. Can is just great.

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Mar 02 2026

Meh. One of the boring ones. Not very exciting.

21 by Adele
Mar 03 2026

Some gems rescue this and lift it to a 4. But one needs to be in the right melancholic mood to listen to the whole album. Rainy days at the coffeehouse?
