Ramones by Ramones
Nov 11 2025

Comparable to consuming a 9 pack of frubes in one sitting. Entertaining to begin with but becomes a bit repetitive. Also a hit or a miss depending on flavour. Enjoyable on the odd occasion but not an essential on the weekly shopping list.

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Nov 12 2025

A similar experience to tucking into one of your favourite muller corner. The yogurt alone is pretty damn tasty but when you add a corner topping like bitter sweet symphony into the mix it takes it to a whole new level. That hidden track at the end was like discovering a chocolate banana flake in with the chocolate digestive balls- it shouldn’t really be in there but we’ll take it

Bug by Dinosaur Jr.
Nov 13 2025

An album drier than a cream cracker. Instrumentally sound but in terms of vocals not impressed at all. Almost had to force myself to listen to all 5 mins and 41sec of Don’t.

Ten by Pearl Jam
Nov 14 2025

Just like double cream a tad heavy for my taste.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Nov 17 2025

A mix between a country farmer/Beatles vibe but none of the songs were overly similar so a nice change from the last few albums. Just like a bubblegum ice cream on a hot summers day-not my go to flavour but still refreshing.

Abraxas by Santana
Nov 18 2025

Never been a fan of almost purely instrumental albums. Comparable to turning up at Wimbledon buzzing for a portion of strawberries and cream just to find they’ve only given you one strawberry in your cream and charged you £9.50. Big let down.

Nov 19 2025

Felt like I was just waiting for fairytale of New York. Feeling like the cat who got the cream after listening to FONY sort of lost interest in the rest of the album. A couple of decent songs in amongst but not at the same level as FONY.

American Idiot by Green Day
Nov 24 2025

Really enjoyed this one especially after a few dud albums from earlier in the week. That transition from holiday into boulevard of broken dreams gave me a similar level of satisfaction as watching a scoop of vanilla ice cream melting into a sticky toffee pudding.

Nov 25 2025

Not bad at all just all too similar. Like a meter long cannoli couldn’t tell when one song finished and the next started just merged into one long album.

Tragic Songs of Life by The Louvin Brothers
Nov 26 2025

The kind of thing a hillbilly farmer would listen to on his rocking chair at the front porch after a long day of cow milking and cheese making.

The Rise & Fall by Madness
Nov 27 2025

If Ronald McDonald had a favourite album it would be this.

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Jan 13 2026

Easy listening felt like floating down river on a boat of whipped cream. Although he does make a noticeable habit of mentioning kids in his first few songs. Having done a quick background check it looks like he’s in the clear. Other than that “minor” red flag enjoyed it more than I was expecting it’s good to be back.

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
Jan 20 2026

Some tunes in there but overall just ok nothing to sCREAM about.
