Popular Reviews

With The Beatles by Beatles

It's fun because it's the beatles but the album wasn't particularly inspiring.

Sulk by The Associates

This bopped hard.

All Ratings (200)

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Nov 03 2025

Good music but felt to countryish at times.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Nov 04 2025

Good lyrics, alright music.

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Nov 05 2025

This particular album wasn't really for me. I heard both the US and the UK versions. Paint it Black in the US version is a standout. There were some good ideas in the album but I don't really vibe with Jagger.

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
Nov 06 2025

Need to relisten once. Wasn't blown away.

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Nov 07 2025

Good voice, meaningful lyrics. Simple and sweet. Didn't intrigue me enough musically though.

Whatever by Aimee Mann
Nov 13 2025

Can definitely tell she tried with this one. Quality is very up and down throughout the album.

OK by Talvin Singh
Nov 14 2025

Amazing except the cringe 1 minute part in the middle with the fake indian accent.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Nov 17 2025

Pretty good an sweet. Was a bit conservative with trying new things but the base idea was good.

With The Beatles by Beatles
Nov 18 2025

It's fun because it's the beatles but the album wasn't particularly inspiring.

Nov 19 2025

Fun album but depends on my mood. Have conflicting feelings about it much like the album cover itself.

Brown Sugar by D'Angelo
Nov 21 2025

Excellent album, had a lot of fun listening to this.

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Nov 24 2025

The lead singer has a very unique voice. Hit and miss album but some songs were a lot of fun.

Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Nov 25 2025

Bob Marley is good old reggae fun, vibes and fun regardless while keeping it simple.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Nov 26 2025

I’m going to carry that weight. Some of the less famous songs are the better ones. Good album overall.

...Baby One More Time by Britney Spears
Nov 28 2025

Soda pop and deep in my heart were stands out. Reminded me of J-pop at times and good memories of persona 4. The rest of the album was not really my style though. Would have been one star if not for the stand outs.

Parachutes by Coldplay
Dec 01 2025

I liked how one song sounded math rockish. Some tracks are solid. Coldplay is very hit or miss for me in general. But definitely one of the better pop albums out there.

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Dec 02 2025

Didn't really vibe with it. Should give it another shot though.

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Dec 04 2025

Was a really soothing listen. I don't think I would like this music everyday, very dependent on my mood. But a fun album overall.

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Dec 05 2025

Funny 90s sound, a bit repetitive but still fun.

Heaven Or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins
Dec 09 2025

Great album. Had already heard it before and I really like other stuff by the twins as well. Also pretty neat that I'll be going to Las Vegas in the next couple of weeks.

Dec 10 2025

Some banger nostalgia tracks but the album is not consistent and hits massive highs but a lot of lows.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Dec 11 2025

Liked everything about this album other than Jagger's vocals.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Dec 15 2025

Delightful.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Dec 16 2025

Mex Sachine was a really cool song. Love me some wah pedal. Powerful album.

All Mod Cons by The Jam
Dec 17 2025

Feels very British nostalgic.

The Holy Bible by Manic Street Preachers
Dec 18 2025

Gave me nirvana vibes. Pretty good album.

Woodface by Crowded House
Dec 19 2025

This had a really fun sound in between but wasn't consistent enough.

Raw Power by The Stooges
Dec 22 2025

Great guitar solos sprinkled throughout and music which is fun to revisit.

Low by David Bowie
Dec 23 2025

One of the best Bowie albums I have heard.

Butterfly by Mariah Carey
Dec 24 2025

Mariah can sing and yet the music is incredibly boring and repetitive. This was a really forgettable album but doesn’t take away from Mariah’s singing ability.

Boston by Boston
Dec 25 2025

It was pretty good for the era it was from.

Dec 26 2025

Pretty cool that 1001 albums recommended this on Christmas. I was so tired of hearing "Last Christmas" and "All I want for Christmas is you" over and over. This felt like a much better collection of Christmas songs. It had warmth and comfort even if it wasn't the best musically. I can see myself coming back to the album when I am down.

Metallica by Metallica
Dec 29 2025

Amazing throwback to an album I have already listened to multiple times. Never gets old.

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Dec 31 2025

Good rock.

So Much For The City by The Thrills
Jan 01 2026

I didn’t really connect with the album in my first two hearings of it. Just repeating city names felt off to me.

1989 by Taylor Swift
Jan 02 2026

I don’t really like this music anymore. But I had fun with the album when it came out and some songs still bop when listened to after a long hiatus.

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Jan 05 2026

Hadn’t listened to alot of Kanye. This was fun music to listen to though.

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Jan 07 2026

Felt very disjoint. The motifs felt repetitive. The deep singing voice was good and I connected with some songs but it was a miss more often than not.

#1 Record by Big Star
Jan 08 2026

Sounded like the beatles at some points. Really dig their sound and they had good harmonies.

Grievous Angel by Gram Parsons
Jan 09 2026

The lyrics were good. The music was solid.

The Gershwin Songbook by Ella Fitzgerald
Jan 13 2026

I found this album to be very smoothing and relaxing. It goes along really well as background noise when I am working as well. I anticipate returning to the album every now and then and the cover art was also delightful.

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
Jan 14 2026

One of my favorite albums of all time but I am biased as a guitarist. The solo's are timeless.

Van Halen by Van Halen
Jan 15 2026

I am a bit biased as a guitarist here. I find some Van Halen stuff amazing even though my brain sort of knows that it can lack musical sophistication. The lyrics are not particularly amazing but it cannot take away from the beauty of those guitar tapping solos.

Superfuzz Bigmuff by Mudhoney
Jan 16 2026

I can see this album inspiring the album "Bleach" by Nirvana which is my favorite Nirvana album. The album was consistent throughout and even the live tracks were really good.

Jan 19 2026

Didn't really impress me all that much even though some songs were super meaningful. Going through it felt a bit like a chore even though there is decent musical production every now and then. I can see that it inspired a lot and the tracks were groovy but I didn't vibe too much with it.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Jan 20 2026

A bit too repetitive. The songs are good standalone but I wouldn't want to listen to an album. Talented singer but the music wasn't really the type I like.

Another Green World by Brian Eno
Jan 21 2026

I found the album to eclectic and fun. Reminded me of YES for some reason. It was a trippy but fun experience nonetheless.

You're Living All Over Me by Dinosaur Jr.
Jan 22 2026

Another banger album. I have also realized that the albums I tend to like have very likable album covers in general. Felt like high quality rock.

Revolver by Beatles
Jan 23 2026

One of the best Beatles albums I have heard. Lots of innovation and even deleted takes of songs were fun to listen to. Really cool album art to accompany it as well.

The Chronic by Dr. Dre
Jan 26 2026

The album had some bops but mostly wasn't my style. Half of it was just my guy trying to sound tough. Had all elements required to be a chronic but doesn't qualify as great music for me.

Remain In Light by Talking Heads
Jan 27 2026

Reminded me a lot of "Elephant Talk" by King Crimson and while the album was good, I don't really feel like listening to it again.

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Jan 28 2026

It was a fun album and one that I would like to play. I need to carefully relisten.

3 Feet High and Rising by De La Soul
Jan 29 2026

Some fun ideas but -1 star for moaning noises for a track. What is the obsession with moaning noises in the albums on here jfc.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Jan 30 2026

I don't have much to say because I don't really have any memories of this for the most part. I liked listening to it though.

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Feb 02 2026

Second song was really weird (not in a good way). The opening was really strong. The rest were also pretty good.

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Feb 03 2026

Elite album. Had a lot of fun listening to it and it just reinforces my belief that Paul was the true heart of the beatles and not lenon.

C'est Chic by CHIC
Feb 04 2026

Lives up to the album name. Elite album , love the style and will revisit it again.

Licensed To Ill by Beastie Boys
Feb 05 2026

This was a fun album to listen to even amidst the excessive name dropping.

The Clash by The Clash
Feb 06 2026

The album was okay. Not breathtaking but fun too.

25 by Adele
Feb 09 2026

Some songs peak really hard. I have heard this before and "Send my Love" and "When we were young" are bops.

Fishscale by Ghostface Killah
Feb 11 2026

Not perverse. Solid ideas. Didn't dread listening to rap on here for once.

Faust IV by Faust
Feb 12 2026

I had a good time.

Dig Me Out by Sleater-Kinney
Feb 13 2026

This one was fun.

Debut by Björk
Feb 17 2026

I hate to be one of those people but I loved this album. Björk's singing was disappointing but the music was amazing.

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Feb 18 2026

Didn't like my first listen as much but liked the second listen a tad bit more.

Tom Tom Club by Tom Tom Club
Feb 20 2026

Had heard a few songs from this before and really liked it. Fondly remember genius of love from IASIP.

Feb 23 2026

R.E.M songs have never quite clicked for me in spite of their lyrical strengths. Will try and listen more actively.

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Feb 24 2026

This was an amazing album to listen to. Love me some loser music. Although lyrically the album isn't as strong as some of radioheads other works the music more than made up for it.

The Specials by The Specials
Feb 25 2026

Sounded beachy and fun.

Red Dirt Girl by Emmylou Harris
Feb 26 2026

One or two standouts and good lyrics throughout but not a lot of musical versatility. I'll give it a re-listen some time but I was a bit bored.

Penance Soiree by The Icarus Line
Feb 27 2026

The album sounded a bit generic. Some songs were really solid.

Ten by Pearl Jam
Mar 02 2026

It was alright.

Dummy by Portishead
Mar 03 2026

Some of the best trip hop out there.

Electric by The Cult
Mar 04 2026

Garage blasting rock at its finest.

Disintegration by The Cure
Mar 09 2026

So good. It felt dreamlike at times. Gave some smiths vibes too.

Lust For Life by Iggy Pop
Mar 11 2026

Sounded bowie esque. A whole lot of yap and weird screaming though which only sounds good on record. The music was okay.

Pyromania by Def Leppard
Mar 13 2026

Great rock music.

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails
Mar 17 2026

Could really spiral downwards with the album. Its pretty good apart from some questionable lyrics.

Beyond Skin by Nitin Sawhney
Mar 18 2026

I think I really like fusion.

Risque by CHIC
Mar 19 2026

Chic just like the artists.

This was a surprisingly good album.

L.A. Woman by The Doors
Apr 06 2026

Solid album.

Apr 08 2026

Nice.

21 by Adele
Apr 13 2026

Meh. I didn't like the music all that much.

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Apr 14 2026

I sighed after seeing the album cover but consistent flow throughout the album.

S&M by Metallica
Apr 15 2026

I listened to the live version of this. Amazing.

Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones
Apr 20 2026

Was alright. Maybe I need to revisit it but I didn't love it too much.

Olympia 64 by Jacques Brel
Apr 22 2026

I don't really know how to judge this. Seemed alright.

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar
Apr 23 2026

Objectively a good album, just wasn't feeling it on my latest listen.

Group Sex by Circle Jerks
Apr 24 2026

Lyrics were a miss.

Apr 27 2026

Twas really good.

Kid A by Radiohead
Apr 28 2026

It didn't reach the highs (and lows) of other radiohead albums.

May 13 2026

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
May 18 2026

Honestly amazing

Songs Of Leonard Cohen by Leonard Cohen

May 20 2026

Some songs were really cool.

Heartbreaker by Ryan Adams
May 22 2026

We got jeff buckley at home.

May 28 2026

Good concept, not expanded upon enough.

Young Americans by David Bowie
Jun 08 2026

i didn't make much of it. Some groovy tunes.

Jun 12 2026

Loved it. Very math-rocky at times which greatly appeases my ears.

Will need to revisit it. Good lyrics and seems to be good proto rock esque.

It was pretty solid.

Suzanne Vega by Suzanne Vega
Jul 01 2026

Sounded like a 90's anime op.

Quiet Life by Japan
Jul 02 2026

It ended up blending into background noise but it wasn't unpleasant. I should give it another chance.

Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz
Jul 06 2026

I loved the sound and its something I will be coming back to.

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Jul 07 2026

Melted into bg noise.

proto-weezer esqu, fascinating sound.

Jul 24 2026

It was a very different album from the usual. Makes me want to revisit it again.

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths
Jul 31 2026

Exhausts similar ideas repeatedly.

Rattlesnakes by Lloyd Cole And The Commotions

I wasn’t feeling it but there were some decent songs in there.

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
