Cafe Bleu by The Style Council
Sep 19 2025

Immediately - Love the Southern Soul-Gospel piano to kick off the album. Overall, this sounds like a show and collage of moods and styles. The vocal performances are pretty alright, and some tracks give me a Ben Folds vibe. Piano playing almost sounds like it could cover off of Rocking the Suburbs - even though this came out 20? years earlier. I laughed out loud at "A Gospel". Please see the Wendy's Employee Training from the 80s. British dudes singing... rrm... writing about American politics is always weird to me. The Wiki states that this is more of a compilation, and academically, it includes some solid music ideas and examples. The recording is simple and not overworked. "Here's one that got away" is a great example of that, but I'd almost prefer a comp of various artists who really embody these genres and styles.

Illmatic by Nas
Sep 20 2025

"Fuck who's the baddest, a person's status depends on salary And my mentality is money-orientated" I haven’t thought about this album in forever. The structure, lyrics, flow, samples, beats, the best of the era and probably ushered in a turning point in the genre becuase - man, no going back from this one.

Darkdancer by Les Rythmes Digitales
Sep 25 2025

Real talk, I think this style of dance music is a joke. And I think I’d put this album as a prime example.

Django Django by Django Django
Sep 26 2025

Not a huge electronic music person. I appreciate the blend of digital and analogue instruments.

The Good, The Bad & The Queen by The Good, The Bad & The Queen
Sep 29 2025

Damon is boring here. Danger Mouse is the most overrated producer. Just not good is the only way I can really put it.

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Oct 01 2025

No wonder GenX were so predisposed to apathy.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Oct 02 2025

Trust. I do not need to listen to this album to rate it. 10 Stars. Update. I listened to it. 20 stars.

Oct 03 2025

Let's see what the caterpillar has to say about this one. Caterpillar? "Which way did the fishy fish go?" A complete mid-range album from a time where LSD was both super cool and used by the CIA to look into other dimensions.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Oct 04 2025

This is neat.

Porcupine by Echo And The Bunnymen
Oct 06 2025

Not my bag.

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Oct 07 2025

Fun. Not a huge Killers fan. Nothing groundbreaking or really grasping to me on this album

Ten by Pearl Jam
Oct 09 2025

Masterpiece. No notes.

evermore by Taylor Swift
Oct 10 2025

In the current taylor swift climate, i refuse to believe this was given to us at random. I sang every word. Loudly. Proudly. Adam Dreschner [sic] made this album anything it was going to be.

Oct 11 2025

This is one of the first albums I ever bought and some of the first songs I ever learned to play. I did not know Johnny cash farther than a cartoonish character of country music that was more fable than man. It wasn’t until a decade later I really started to see cash a a real person after reading Cash by Johnny Cash (because I was High Fidelity). Now 20 years later with more insight and understanding more of the songs chosen for this anthology, I can give it no less than an 5/5

At Budokan by Cheap Trick
Oct 12 2025

It’s fine

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
Oct 13 2025

Yeah I mean…. Come on

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Oct 16 2025

Good album.

Peter Gabriel by Peter Gabriel
Oct 20 2025

Peter Gabrielle is so bleh to me. But so are most British art school weenies

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Oct 21 2025

Frankly I love this album.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Oct 25 2025

Hippie ass bullshit that I love

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Nov 01 2025

I really know this is a good album, but I have a lot of bee's in my brain right now so the amount happening on this album is just overwhelming to me. Someone once said that music is the space between notes. There is no space between notes here. There is no room on this album. It is the musical equivalent to being at a crowded party. It is sensory overload the soundtrack.

Rattlesnakes by Lloyd Cole And The Commotions
Nov 02 2025

It’s kinda just a alright

Caetano Veloso by Caetano Veloso
Nov 03 2025

I am not familiar with the work.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Nov 06 2025

Anything RHCP is getting 5 stars from me. I love this band. They do no wrong. (Musically)

The Age Of The Understatement by The Last Shadow Puppets
Nov 07 2025

I really enjoy this album. I would credit this album to me getting into more folk music and Brit pop.

After The Gold Rush by Neil Young
Nov 08 2025

Some real bangers in this. Neil young sounds really good here.

Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones
Nov 09 2025

Please read this with the note that I do not like The Rolling Stones. Wow. What a garbage album that is a gross imitation of blues rock more egregious than Led Zeppelin.

The White Album by Beatles
Nov 11 2025

It's the white album. What more do you want me to say?

Faith by George Michael
Nov 16 2025

Just not my jam

Drunk by Thundercat
Nov 20 2025
Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Nov 22 2025

Did you know that this album got produced purely to spite Bruce Springsteen? Todd Rundgren is a bitter man.

Celebrity Skin by Hole
Nov 30 2025

Just never really go into this vibe but it's not bad.

2112 by Rush
Dec 02 2025

Today, tomorrow sawyer. Tomorrow, the world.

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Dec 06 2025

Hell yeah Joni Mitchell.
