Popular Reviews

Vanishing Point by Primal Scream

You'd never pick this album out of a list and think "yes I want to listen to that" It's a bit shit. Sort of background music you'd head in an early 2000's EA sports game - Snowboarding, Skate, Need for Speed etc

The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monáe

Good listen, I enjoyed this one! Interesting take on modern Soul and R&B. Suite 2 was much better than Suite 3, but overall album slapped.

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival

Some Alabama trailer trash women have been impregnated by their cousins to this album. Its red, white and blue vomit in musical format. Tough listen all the way through

1-Star Albums (17)

All Ratings (71)

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Sep 09 2025

Worst than previous Bobby Dylan album, whined rather than sang

We Are Family by Sister Sledge
Sep 10 2025

Fun but short album, only 8 songs followed by 4 longer remixes. Few bangers then rest background fillers

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Sep 12 2025

Not heavy metal Dad rock with blues vibe Good Time Bad Times - Great track Dazed and Confused - Decent but too much moaning, gets awkward Black Mountain Side - Only good for a piss break Communication Breakdown - Best solo on album

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Sep 14 2025

Never have I played this album in full, never will again. Listened while at work and only made my day worse Few songs to make white middle aged people act up on a dancefloor, other than that generic, underwhelming indie sounds with the poor choice of synth...

Beach Samba by Astrud Gilberto
Sep 15 2025

A true work of art, the sort of abstract artwork that looks like a shitstain in a toilet. I doubt even Astrud enjoyed this album. Painful listen. Only notable ref on Beach Samba wiki is that it appears on the 1001 album list, says it all really.

Diamond Life by Sade
Sep 16 2025

Seen to many Carlos Sainz thirst traps to truly enjoy smooth operator. Rest of the album was great, good vocals, some funky baselines and everyone enjoys a sexy sax

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Sep 17 2025

There's a reason its the most sold album ever, back to back bangers. Eddie Van Halens solo in Beat it is mind blowing. Top tier 80's music. Shame about the allegations.

Pretenders by Pretenders
Sep 18 2025

Generally boring, few stand out songs but not going to listen again.

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Sep 19 2025

Good vocals and she's always had her own individual sound. But not one of her best albums and seemed to drag on.

Is This It by The Strokes
Sep 20 2025

Sounds like you're listening through a wall Other then that, average dad rock, couple of popular songs

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Sep 22 2025

Dull, boring and soul destroying. Would have prefered to sit in silence for 75 minutes.

My Generation by The Who
Sep 23 2025

I'm sure this slapped when it came out, but has since aged like milk

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Sep 24 2025

Chill lounge vibes Jazz isn't my usual thing but I enjoyed this

C'est Chic by CHIC
Sep 25 2025

Couple great songs but far too many instrumental or filler tracks on the album. Felt a little stale towards the end. Better options if you wanted to listen to this genre.

Phrenology by The Roots
Sep 26 2025

Decent, solid rap album Would have scored a 4 but too much random, unnecessary bullshit

Everything Must Go by Manic Street Preachers
Sep 28 2025

Not amazing, funny Blackpool song Crazy how one of the members disappeared +1 for being welsh

Ogden's Nut Gone Flake by Small Faces
Sep 29 2025

Ogden's Nut tasted a bit fucking weird. I'd rather listen to static, only enjoyable to those who have large red noses, ghostly pale and have size 24 feet

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Sep 30 2025

Year 9 music lesson, but the teacher pulls a sicky and everyone 'has a go' A bit shit considering how good the other Miles Davis album was

Shleep by Robert Wyatt
Oct 01 2025

Fuck off, proper shit

Vanishing Point by Primal Scream
Oct 03 2025

You'd never pick this album out of a list and think "yes I want to listen to that" It's a bit shit. Sort of background music you'd head in an early 2000's EA sports game - Snowboarding, Skate, Need for Speed etc

Achtung Baby by U2
Oct 04 2025

Beige dad rock. Sort of guys who look forward to experimental missionary sex. What happened to U2... They were never amazing, but man they got boring.

Slippery When Wet by Bon Jovi
Oct 05 2025

Huge album, still relevant 40 years on Named after a trip to a strip club :)

White Light / White Heat by The Velvet Underground
Oct 06 2025

The gift... Can I send it back? Awful album, not surprised I've never heard of them before.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Oct 07 2025

Not for me, good voice but pretty boring

Tigermilk by Belle & Sebastian
Oct 08 2025

It was fine... Little bit boring but not offensive. Album cover is the best bit

The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monáe
Oct 10 2025

Good listen, I enjoyed this one! Interesting take on modern Soul and R&B. Suite 2 was much better than Suite 3, but overall album slapped.

Oct 11 2025

God I fucking hate Bob Dylan. Unfortunately can never esacpe the harmonica solos. Terrible artist, shit singer, awful lyricist and in general this man drains my will to live.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Oct 12 2025

Another snoozefest

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Oct 13 2025

Not a bit of me, I get the idea behind it but meh

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
Oct 14 2025

Good enough debut album, shame the band didn't do anything significant after. Most songs are middle of the pack and nothing special, other than Take Me Out.

Snivilisation by Orbital
Oct 15 2025

Grok users listen to this sort of trash

Face to Face by The Kinks
Oct 16 2025

Generic Brit-Rock of the era, but nothing special and doesn't hit the same as The Beatles etc.

Younger Than Yesterday by The Byrds
Oct 17 2025

"The Byrds had initially come to international prominence in mid-1965, when their folk rock interpretation of Bob Dylan's "Mr. Tambourine Man" reached number 1 on both the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart and the UK Singles Chart." This just shows how shit Bob Dylan is. The Byrds did what Bob and his deathly harmonica could never. Other than that hilarious piece of trivia, a very 'meh' album that I probably won't listen to again. Did make me start to drift off towards the end. +1 extra for showing Bob how to record a song. Fuck you Bob.

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Oct 18 2025

Born In The U.S.A. is actually the worst song on the album

Electric Prunes by The Electric Prunes
Oct 19 2025

Another poor psychedelic rock album, glad I didn't grow up in this era, probably would've been really dull and boring of a person.

Oct 20 2025

Nice change from our rough patch of 1960s dull rock. Soul is fun but not my everyday listen, it was fine

Disintegration by The Cure
Oct 21 2025

Better than Bob Dylan I guess

The Sensual World by Kate Bush
Oct 22 2025

Great singer, but the album is not very good. Her other work is much better

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails
Oct 23 2025

Not a great band, unusual concept of only having 1 permanent member and touring with special guests.

Hearts And Bones by Paul Simon
Oct 24 2025

Not his best... Weird choice of album to be on this list. But not a bad listen.

Play by Moby
Oct 25 2025

Think I get what he was trying to do, just didn't do it very well...

Oct 27 2025

Grok why is my brain mush? Oh its because I listened to 75 minutes of shitty electronic music

Oct 29 2025

It was okay, I listened... and don't really have too much to say about it. Not very memorable

Permission to Land by The Darkness
Oct 31 2025

The Darkness are such a guilty pleasure for me, especially this album. Justin Hawkin is a sexy, camp, squealing man who makes this tongue in cheek band a really good listen. If you can't have a laugh with it and find it amusing you have the personality of a No. 2 Pencil. Super fun, good riffs, great solos and the ridiculously high pitched singing. If you don't attempt the high notes you're a huge pussy. Growing on Me, into I Believe in a Thing Called Love, then Love Is Only a Feeling is 11 and half minutes of fantastic British glam rock.

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park
Nov 01 2025

First album I bought myself, grew up on nu-metal and this started it all. Love it, not a bad song on the album and Chester was an amazing frontman. RIP

Beyond Skin by Nitin Sawhney
Nov 02 2025

I feel I should like it... Got some vibes about it. But it's a no from me

Debut by Björk
Nov 03 2025

Good voice, but not for me

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Nov 04 2025

Good band, love a female lead singer in a rock band

In It For The Money by Supergrass
Nov 05 2025

Generic is the only word to describe it. Not bad or painfully boring like some other Britpop stuff, but I'm not rushing to put any of their songs on again.

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Nov 06 2025

Some Alabama trailer trash women have been impregnated by their cousins to this album. Its red, white and blue vomit in musical format. Tough listen all the way through

Scissor Sisters by Scissor Sisters
Nov 07 2025

I get it, its fun and flamboyant. But I do think others have done this style better. Some goods songs on the album but also some dead wood that you can not get past very easily.

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
Nov 08 2025

Solid enough album. Some good vibes and was a fairly nice, easy listen. Bang average 3/5

Electric by The Cult
Nov 09 2025

It's meh, I wouldn't pay to see them live nor would I ever go out of my way to buy or put on an album of theirs. But nothing offensively shit and some of the solos, riffs etc were actually pretty good.

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Nov 10 2025

The only time Reggae is acceptable is at a pool bar, played quietly. Other than that its shit music. Slow, repetitive and most of the time the lyrics don't even make sense. It's not cool you smoke weed, it smells like stank-ass and you look like a bellend, maybe you should find something in life you enjoy instead of having to use drugs??? Rather than making love how about you make a decent fucking song??? Fuck off Bob

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Nov 11 2025

Yeah it's a 5/5 Ozzy certainly earned the title of Price of Darkness. Iconic look, creator of heavy metal. A worthy member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Probably did too many drugs but he lived a full and long life. Despite his health conditions the legend even put on a Back to the Begining event only 17 days before he passed away... Paranoid is widely regarded as one of the greatest and most influential heavy metal albums of all time, often cited as a key influence for the development of the genre, as well as one of its earliest albums. It was ranked number one on Rolling Stone's list of the "100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time". Easily my favourite artist and was really sad when he passed away.

One World by John Martyn
Nov 12 2025

Great guitarist, singing would be better with a Lemsip. Interesting mix of genres but a nice change

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Nov 13 2025

Really good background music, not that impressive if you stop and listen to the album as a whole

Porcupine by Echo And The Bunnymen
Nov 14 2025

Not bad by any means, but other bands have just done it better and they are pretty forgettable. Album started to fall off towards the end

xx by The xx
Nov 15 2025

Lazy, slow and boring. Yet I kinda fucked with it. Into slapped, and the rest of the album had the same laid back, relaxed feel and was overall a very chilled vibe.

All Hope Is Gone by Slipknot
Nov 16 2025

Belter of an album, great band. One of the albums growing up that really got me into metal. Love it!

Nov 17 2025

Why would anyone chose to listen to this... Under the influence of drugs?? Underground goth techo rave?? Brain has turned to mush?? Diet of Mountain Dew and Cheetos?? Grok is their main news feed?? Background music to a Rocket League montage with 14 views?? Trying to be edgy and ragebait people with your music views?? If you enjoy this, you need to sort your life out. Dodging the predator register like Trumps dodging the Epstein files....

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Nov 18 2025

Not a huge Beatles fan, decent enough

Tommy by The Who
Nov 19 2025

Rock opera is a really cool idea and this album seemed to start artists dipping their toes in it. The story telling is done well and easy to follow trough the album. But The Who are a bit rubbish and boring, don't excite me enough to want to listen to more of their stuff.
