Popular Reviews

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar

I like it but I don't care for hip hop/rap or would really need to be in a specific mood for spoken word almost. His lyrics are good and have meaning but this isn't something I would ever put on. 3/5

1-Star Albums (4)

All Ratings (162)

Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Sep 08 2025

This album started off really good, but towards the end I was hoping it would end... I just am not a fan of the style of guitar and a healthy dose is good but this was just packed with that. Overall 7.39/10

Sep 09 2025

Pretty solid. 8/10 overall. Favorites being Man on the Moon and Everybody Hurts obviously but also enjoyed Try not to Breathe and Night Swimming

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Sep 10 2025

Not what I expected it to be. Pretty enjoyable, not something that I would always put on but if I am dying for jazz this is fun. Peaches En Regalia and Willie the Pimp were solid, The Gumbo Variations had a bit too much squeaky sax for me. There is a lot of squeaky sax. Bass is SOLID on all the songs to be honest so unfortunately I couldn't rank a song based on the bass alone. Noticing a trend with albums loving to have songs that are 10+ minutes long. Whatever floats your boat I guess. Nothing on here that made me go omg this is a show stopper. Overall a 7.42/10

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths
Sep 11 2025

Basically every Smiths song sounds the same to me. No one song is bad but nothing is exciting. This is put on in the background of a mundane task and zone out music. You typically will not be surprised while listening to a Smiths song. Barbarism begins at home's bassline is solid and makes the song enjoyable. 7.78/10 I'd give it a 3.5/5

The Bends by Radiohead
Sep 12 2025

Was excited to get this album- I really like fake plastic trees but had never really listened to the rest of the album. Was generally pleased with the album. Nice balance of guitar and extremely depressing singing 8.58/10

Feast of Wire by Calexico
Sep 14 2025

nothing on the album was bad, i'm just not an instrumental lover. 7.81/10

GREY Area by Little Simz
Sep 15 2025

7.25/10. Totally not the vibe I usually go for. Not bad, just not my thing

Hounds Of Love by Kate Bush
Sep 16 2025

7.46/10 More disappointing than I would like to admit. After only knowing "running up that hill" i was expecting more of her songs to have that feel and not many did. 3/5

Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones
Sep 17 2025

I do not like the Rolling Stones. I do like "you can't always get what you want." Therefore this album was mid 7.89/10; 3/5.

Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
Sep 18 2025

Album felt incredibly incohesive. Swampsnake was good and Next was completely intolerable 2/5 7.64/10

Close To You by Carpenters
Sep 19 2025

I really enjoyed this album!! 5/5 Karen Carpenter's vocals are beautiful, and the whole album is genuinely enjoyable to listen to. 8.96/10

Ten by Pearl Jam
Sep 20 2025

Great album! 8.82/10 4/5

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Sep 21 2025

BANGER ALBUM 8.6/10

Wild Wood by Paul Weller
Sep 22 2025

3/5 pretty solid a good "put on in the background album" 7.63/10

Supa Dupa Fly by Missy Elliott
Sep 24 2025

sorry missy elliott not my vibe at all 2.5/5 6.85/10...

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
Sep 25 2025

7.71/10 pretty solid, your typical 80s heavier rock. liked fire fire :) 3.5/5 3/5

Chris by Christine and the Queens
Sep 26 2025

Listened in both english and french. comme si is pretty good. for me it felt like basic pop nothing super outstanding. French was slightly better than english but maybe because i didn't know what it was saying. English: 7.23/10. French: 7.46/10 Overall: 7.33 3/5

Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys
Sep 27 2025

I'm sure that they had fun making this album but some of this stuff just doesn't click with me the lyrics are WITTY though. I'll all of a sudden realize what they've said and go "oh shit" and that makes it fun. none of these songs I would listen to again, maybe Johnny Ryall? but it was fun at the beginning and then just repetitive as hell... sorry 6.83/10 2/5?

Rain Dogs by Tom Waits
Sep 28 2025

I'll say that I didn't hate it it just is very different than what I usually listen to? Diamonds and gold or clap hands was probably my fav The way I can describe this album is greasy man who I would try and stay away from... his singing is just not for me but it was an interesting album 2.5/5 -- 2/5 6.55/10

Live At Leeds by The Who
Sep 29 2025

solid live album and as always, The Who are ridiculously talented. 4/5 8.39/10

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Sep 30 2025

3/5 7.77/10 gives halloweeny vibes at times, that's fun bass lines carry the album

The Trinity Session by Cowboy Junkies
Oct 02 2025

Just really slow country bluesy feel Not bad, just not exciting, which is ok A female country singer which I liked, not a lot of that 7.71/10 3/5

Red Headed Stranger by Willie Nelson
Oct 03 2025

I have a respect for it, I just don't care for it. It's musically really good though so major props its just not my style 8.07/10 4/5

Violator by Depeche Mode
Oct 05 2025

Not a huge fan of this stuff- the effect he has over his voice has always grinded my gears a bit. Personal Jesus and Enjoy the Silence (prior to the final minute and a half) were highs on the album, but I knew them prior to listening...New wave just isn't for me 8/10 3/5

The Idiot by Iggy Pop
Oct 06 2025

7.75/10; 3.5/5 but I'll give it a 3/5 Actually liked this album more than I thought I would- liked Sister Midnight and Dum Dum Boys.

In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Oct 07 2025

4/5 Actually quite enjoyed. First song much more upbeat than the second, but I prefer the second, "in a silent way" 8.25/10

Truth by Jeff Beck
Oct 08 2025

Not my fav, but not bad This album proved to me that most famous rock songs are in fact covers. 8.1/10 4/5

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar
Oct 09 2025

I like it but I don't care for hip hop/rap or would really need to be in a specific mood for spoken word almost. His lyrics are good and have meaning but this isn't something I would ever put on. 3/5

Oct 10 2025

Another man singing/talking really low and thinking its poetic and nothing else quite redeeming abt it 2.5/5 ~ 2/5 5.67/10

My Aim Is True by Elvis Costello
Oct 11 2025

8.23/10 liked! 4/5 Favs: blame it on cain and less than zero

Life's Too Good by The Sugarcubes
Oct 12 2025

6.21/10 Not a huge fan I think I accidentally listened to the deluxe version and the further the songs went the less I liked them... 2/5

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Oct 13 2025

Love this album 8.5/10 5/5 favs being: me and bobby mcgee (duh) and cry baby

Ocean Rain by Echo And The Bunnymen
Oct 15 2025

Honestly not bad but some of these songs are NOT IT (thorn of crowns). I liked seven seas, but this is just 80s mellow, sorry. 3/5

Swordfishtrombones by Tom Waits
Oct 16 2025

he kinda sounds like if a zombie's vocal chords still worked enough to sing but truthfully i don't care for tom waits at all maybe if you gave me a pack of cigs and told me to live out a angry 3 rats in a trenchcoat vibe 2/5

Document by R.E.M.
Oct 17 2025

8.09/10 4/5 REM is always pretty good and I love end of the world and the one I love

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Oct 18 2025

9.39/10 5/5 Love this album! Favs: good times bad times and dazed and confused

Oct 19 2025

I'll begin this with I don't like Kanye West at all as a person. That being said, I did my best to listen to this with an open mind. All of the Lights - 8.5/10 Monster was an 8/10 solely bc of Nicki. I hate how he constantly refers to himself as a prophet Runaway is a fantastic song no matter what 9.5/10 blame game was pretty good until the last two minutes. what the fuck 7.12/10 3/5

Electric by The Cult
Oct 20 2025

didn't love it didn't hate it but didn't like it either 6.95/10 2/5 holy mid

Elephant by The White Stripes
Oct 21 2025

okay funky this album surprised me I actually liked it quite a bit nothing too crazy but all genuinely enjoyable songs to listen to 4/5 8.21/10

Sign 'O' The Times by Prince
Oct 24 2025

Lowkey disappointing compared to Purple Rain didn't finish it in one day- but anticipate rating will be 3/5

Eliminator by ZZ Top
Oct 25 2025

This album surprised me in that I didn't hate it I am sick of the 80s lowkey... but this was moderately good 3/5 7.64/10

Good Old Boys by Randy Newman
Oct 26 2025

Pretty solid, felt like I was listening to a Pixar album for a minute Didn't appreciate the first song too much...why need to say slurs to get your point across 3/5 7.83/10

Melody A.M. by Röyksopp
Oct 27 2025

Just background noise, electronic music not much to care about. 6.75/10 2/5

Dr. Octagonecologyst by Dr. Octagon
Oct 29 2025

i hated this i don't like hip hop i don't like weird sex and sexualization what is going on here nothing about this was something I would listen to again 1/5

Brilliant Corners by Thelonious Monk
Oct 30 2025

Jazz never really pisses me off it, just is there solid i'd say, love a good upright bass 3/5 7.42/10

Low by David Bowie
Oct 31 2025

Not bad, 3/5 mostly instrumentals? which i dont really associate with bowie idk

Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Nov 01 2025

As I go through this list, I am constantly surprised by 1) how many songs I know 2) how much I don't care about a lot of these albums. Each one has something different to offer, and it is obvious how they have contributed to their respective genres, but I don't think I have fallen in love with anything new yet. 3/5 7.08/10

Ingenue by k.d. lang
Nov 02 2025

Pretty solid but nothing shocking. good vocals. 3.5/5 ~ 4/5

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Nov 03 2025

3/5 7.38 if the vocals for eleanor rigby were made into a whole album.

Young Americans by David Bowie
Nov 04 2025

that cover of across the universe was...something. 3/5 7.5/10

Screamadelica by Primal Scream
Nov 05 2025

Truly amazing how many songs can be on the same album but not be similar. 2/5 6.2/10

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Nov 06 2025

and if a double deckerrr bussssss i liked it more than i thought but i did know some songs beforehand 8.45/10 4/5

Hail To the Thief by Radiohead
Nov 07 2025

this album is mind numbing. Ok computer's cousin no one talks to because it sucks. Not every radiohead album needs to be on this list and this one shouldn't be called great please let it end. 2/5 6.79/10

White Light by Gene Clark
Nov 09 2025

not bad but all of these songs be sounding the exact same bro. putting me to SLEEP 2/5

Different Class by Pulp
Nov 10 2025

Listened to it a day late- not terrible but some songs are just awful (I spy), I really liked Disco 2000 though.

Imagine by John Lennon
Nov 11 2025

OK some songs not bad, but def not all around insane John Lennon was just a guy 7.9/10 3.5/5

Rust In Peace by Megadeth
Nov 12 2025

Super duper talented bassist and guitarists holy moly! Singing ruins it for me. I hate that low rumbly yelling. But wow talent!! 7.83/10 4/10

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Nov 13 2025

Not bad, a lot of covers on here that I have heard before but by other artists. Nice to see Dusty's rendition of them. However, a lot of these songs have the same formula and sound to them and after a while it gets boring. 3/5 7.8/10

Crocodiles by Echo And The Bunnymen
Nov 14 2025

Album is chill honestly. Bass lines are not crazy but sooo good they ARE the song and honeslty drive the album and I found myself actually nodding along which I cannot say about a LOT of these albums. Has such a good 80s rock sound but not in the hair metal genre (i don't know a ton about 80s music genres). This was a 4/5 but not in a way that was like all great songs. these songs just didn't piss me off and all would be good to put on in the back of like work.

At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Nov 15 2025

FIRE FIRE FIRE One of the greatest live albums and I've never really listened to Johnny Cash before. bro was COOKING on that harmonica god damn 8.34/10

Shadowland by k.d. lang
Nov 17 2025

Jazzier and more country than the last album of hers that I listened to. Again, vocals are great. Tears don't care who cry them is great. Nothing insane, but that being said, its good. 4/5

Nov 18 2025

Think Dropkick Murphys but less angry and more Irish. And like a Renaissance fair, but not a fairy in sight. So like an Irish dance party. I don't think I could tell you most of the lyrics, but it's a vibe. If you ever are craving the sounds of an Irish pub, look no further. Easy 2.5/5 2/5 6.12/10

Locust Abortion Technician by Butthole Surfers
Nov 19 2025

First looking at the cover I was like "well fuck I know exactly what this is going to be like and I am not going to like it" and then I heard the first song and my initial 30 seconds I was like I was right, then the rest of the song really wasn't TOO bad and I was like I kinda liked this instrumental. Then I heard the rest of the album. Sometimes you can judge a band based off what they name themselves. 5.05/10 2/5

Nov 20 2025

fucking annoying pinging sound in a 20 minute song? please end my misery. Genuinely so not enjoyable why did you do this. It is like an ice pick on my skull. This has to be a social experiment. the rest of the album was fine. nothing special at all. 2/5

Deloused in the Comatorium by The Mars Volta
Nov 23 2025

Started off liking it, thought it was like if Thursday met Muse and had a kid but they divorced and the kid favored Muse. These songs are very long and I am very tired. 3/5

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Nov 26 2025
Central Reservation by Beth Orton
Nov 28 2025

every song sounds basically the same and is almost always over 5 minutes long. why.

My Generation by The Who
Nov 30 2025

My generation is so good but this is simply not as good as their other albums... 3/5

Calenture by The Triffids
Dec 01 2025

Not bad, just not interesting. 3/5

Arrival by ABBA
Dec 02 2025

banger after banger. If you don't like ABBA, I don't trust your opinion on music, simple as that. Basslines are fantastic. Money, money, money is one of my favorite songs ever. 5/5

Dec 03 2025

i hate this album pls make it stop. none of these songs will ever be played again. thank you. 2/5

Hot Shots II by The Beta Band
Dec 05 2025

like nothing special at all. boring. the first song was interesting and the rest blah. 3/5

Giant Steps by The Boo Radleys
Dec 07 2025

Musical whiplash. nothing on this album really sounds the same but the guitar parts are all nice. 3/5

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Dec 10 2025

Not my thing but I appreciate a good political message in a song.

Risque by CHIC
Dec 15 2025

OH NO THE SPIRIT OF DISCO HAS TAKEN ME OVER

Jan 02 2026
