Popular Reviews

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf

More like 3.5. Love me some rock opera but jesus they're all 1/3 longer than they need to be lol.

Live! by Fela Kuti

Definitely slaps but the mood's gotta be right for sure

Justified by Justin Timberlake
Dec 03 2025

God what the FUCK was this. It felt like a 63 minute parody. By the 3rd song I was having serious doubts about my commitment to this project.

Harvest by Neil Young
Dec 04 2025

I can appreciate this but it's not especially my jam; gotta really be in the mood.

The Doors by The Doors
Dec 05 2025

Solid album, so many great tracks. I'm not sure it's one I throw on too often, but I'm not mad if it's on.

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Dec 08 2025

Really more of a 3.5 for me. If I never hear Jet again in my life it will be too soon. The first 2 tracks are just exhausted for me but the rest of the album is solid.

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Dec 09 2025
Brothers by The Black Keys
Dec 15 2025
Movies by Holger Czukay
Dec 17 2025
Shalimar by Rahul Dev Burman
Dec 24 2025

3.5 for me really. Like, I appreciate this but I can't say I'd throw it on.

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Dec 29 2025

More like 3.5. Love me some rock opera but jesus they're all 1/3 longer than they need to be lol.

Le Tigre by Le Tigre
Dec 31 2025

Just not my thing.

Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
Jan 02 2026
Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Jan 05 2026

Man I think I hated Oasis in my youth because the singing sounded whiny lol. I guess they finally broke me.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Jan 06 2026

Definitely slaps but the mood's gotta be right for sure

C'est Chic by CHIC
Jan 13 2026

Def a 3.5. The ones that slap, SLAP. The ones that miss, are a total snooze. But essentials here!

Want One by Rufus Wainwright
Jan 15 2026
Maggot Brain by Funkadelic
Jan 27 2026

Dude. This was a wild ride for which I was not prepared. Solid AF. Losing a star because someone needed to be more judicious with the splicing knife.

Rapture by Anita Baker
Jan 29 2026

Found the whole album on YouTube (unfortunately lol). Great voice but man what a snooze. Hard pass.

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Feb 03 2026
To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar
Feb 04 2026

I can really appreciate this wild ride, but it's not for me on a typical day. Great stuff, though.

1984 by Van Halen
Feb 06 2026

Damn, just banger after banger on this album! XD

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Feb 19 2026
B-52's by The B-52's

John Prine by John Prine
Mar 25 2026

Ugh. Definitely one of those "I can appreciate this but in no way, shape, or form is this for me." More like a 3.5.

Porcupine by Echo And The Bunnymen
Mar 26 2026
Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Mar 30 2026

I wish I liked Bob more, but I just don't.

90 by 808 State
Apr 02 2026
Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen
Apr 07 2026

I wish I liked Bruce. I just don't. Some tracks and albums are better than others, this one just doesn't do it for me, sorry.

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Apr 08 2026

I'll take "music I refuse to understand or appreciate" for $1,000, Alex!

Groovin' by The Young Rascals
Apr 24 2026
Frank by Amy Winehouse
Apr 30 2026
Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees

Dare! by The Human League
May 15 2026
Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
May 18 2026
Modern Kosmology by Jane Weaver
May 24 2026

God I really vacillated between 2 and 3. Like, I was intrigued yet baffled all at the same time.

Dry by PJ Harvey
May 25 2026
Shaka Zulu by Ladysmith Black Mambazo
May 27 2026
Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
May 28 2026
Imagine by John Lennon
Jun 02 2026
Tommy by The Who
Jun 06 2026
Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jun 07 2026

I hated this way less than I expected. A whole album is a lot to ask here, however. Just not for me, but again, I can appreciate it.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Jun 19 2026
Junkyard by The Birthday Party
Jun 28 2026

Hard to be mad at something whose cover delivers exactly what it promises, but it's even harder not to rage when this list is already overrun by mediocre white dude bands.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Jul 04 2026
Shaft by Isaac Hayes
Jul 10 2026
Odessa by Bee Gees
Jul 13 2026
Funeral by Arcade Fire
Jul 14 2026
Bad by Michael Jackson
Jul 21 2026
Devil Without A Cause by Kid Rock
Jul 22 2026

Absolutely not. I am not listening to this dogshit and I will still rate it 1 star.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Aug 03 2026
Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Aug 04 2026

I just can't, I'm sorry. I'm sure it's a vibe and great for what it is, but it's not for me.

Yeezus by Kanye West
