Popular Reviews

Madman Across The Water by Elton John

Did that white boy just sing - in the first person - a song about being Native American? Yes, yes he did.

A Hard Day's Night by Beatles

They sound so young on this album, it's hard to take it seriously knowing where they go from here. Still got some bops, though.

Stankonia by OutKast
Sep 23 2025

There's a lot to love and respect here, but the rest I strongly disliked.

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Sep 25 2025

Fun to hear the roots of inspiration to since of my favorite musicians.

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Sep 30 2025
Tidal by Fiona Apple
Oct 06 2025

I already love this album

Blur by Blur
Oct 08 2025
The Scream by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Oct 09 2025

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this album. It's weird in a way I love.

Third by Soft Machine
Oct 10 2025

A little too much droning for me.

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Oct 13 2025

I love finger-style guitar and he's great at it, but the rest of the music didn't meet the same standard. Sultans of Swing is still a bop, but the best song by far.

Logical Progression by LTJ Bukem
Oct 16 2025

I need to be in the right mood to enjoy this, but I can jam sometimes.

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Oct 17 2025

I'm glad the Cure made music that inspired musicians that I like.

The Doors by The Doors
Oct 20 2025

A known favorite and easy to tell why it's on this list.

Red Headed Stranger by Willie Nelson
Oct 21 2025

I hadn't heard Willie Nelson before this and was surprised by how great a voice he had. I'm looking forward to hearing more, though this album's format wasn't my favorite.

The Sun Rises In The East by Jeru The Damaja
Oct 24 2025

This album has an interesting stripped-down sound that's unique to my experience. Still not my bag, but easy to see why it receives praise.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Oct 28 2025
Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Oct 29 2025

Hey, at least I left this album with a deeper appreciation for "Jackson Park Express"

Treasure by Cocteau Twins
Oct 30 2025

Yeah, I dig.

Gentlemen by The Afghan Whigs
Oct 31 2025

Love the music, nothing positive to say about the vocals

Heroes to Zeros by The Beta Band
Nov 05 2025

There's a mood where this is what I want to listen to, but it doesn't strike me often

Throwing Muses by Throwing Muses
Nov 07 2025

I . . . guess I didn't get it? The lyrics were banal and the music was some of the most boring punk I can think of.

2112 by Rush
Nov 10 2025

I like Rush, but this album isn't my favorite

Histoire De Melody Nelson by Serge Gainsbourg
Nov 13 2025

Soft strings, jazzy percussion, and French pillow talk? Hell yeah.

A Hard Day's Night by Beatles
Nov 17 2025

They sound so young on this album, it's hard to take it seriously knowing where they go from here. Still got some bops, though.

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Nov 18 2025

Having only heard their singles, I never understood the hype around Radiohead. This album has intricacy that gives me an idea of why people are so into them. Worth more listens.

Synchronicity by The Police
Nov 24 2025

A few good bites and a lot of sawdust

Face to Face by The Kinks
Nov 27 2025

British Invasion is a big deal, I get it

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Nov 28 2025
Funeral by Arcade Fire
Dec 01 2025

Reminds me of Vivaldi: perfectly pleasant background music

Low-Life by New Order
Dec 02 2025

Honestly can't tell it's not the Cure

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park
Dec 03 2025

I'm more familiar with Meteora, but Linkin Park is probably my favorite "I hate my dad" band.

Madman Across The Water by Elton John
Dec 10 2025

Did that white boy just sing - in the first person - a song about being Native American? Yes, yes he did.
