Ys by Joanna Newsom

Poetic and beautiful. This is the reason I signed up for this challenge. To find stuff I would never have listened to otherwise.

1999 by Prince

A really fun listen and endlessly groovy

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Dec 13 2025

No skips

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
Dec 15 2025

Fantastic no skip album

Liked it

New York Dolls by New York Dolls
Dec 29 2025

I can see all the ways this influenced later albums by countless different artists, making it still sounds timeless

Country Life by Roxy Music
Jan 12 2026

Not sure you HAVE to listen this before you die, but I didn’t mind it

The Clash by The Clash
Jan 13 2026

Like it a lot

Jan 17 2026

Features, production and samples are great but I can’t get over the cringey lyrics. If Kanye had any sense of humility or humour I might be able to understand but he doesn’t. If I wanted to listen to a ‘my beautiful dark twisted fantasy’ type album I’d listen to pusha t or Freddie gibbs album

The Hissing Of Summer Lawns by Joni Mitchell
Jan 22 2026

This was my first time listening to this and I loved it, jazzy and insightful

Devotional Songs by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Jan 23 2026

It’s hard to rank this because I’m not familiar with the genre, but it does feel overproduced and maximalist which is a bit overwhelming

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Jan 24 2026

He brought rock and roll to masses, but there were contemporaries who did it better and had more originality than Elvis

Darkdancer by Les Rythmes Digitales
Jan 25 2026

Didn’t mind it but nothing really stood out for me

Revolver by Beatles
Jan 27 2026

Legendary, revolutionary, crazy this came out 60 years ago

Tigermilk by Belle & Sebastian
Jan 29 2026

Excellent

Ten by Pearl Jam
Feb 02 2026

Good

Real Life by Magazine
Feb 06 2026

5 star post punk album

Metallica by Metallica
Feb 17 2026

Some iconic songs and iconic sounds but songs like ‘tread on me’ are so cringe and proves how much Metallica sells out. I like my music to prioritise art of capital

Make Yourself by Incubus
Feb 23 2026

I just think other bands do this sound better but I thoroughly enjoy

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Mar 06 2026

Quincy jones masterpiece, shame Michael is a wrongen and his voice grates after a while

Gold by Ryan Adams
Mar 16 2026
Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Mar 19 2026

Atmospheric, moody, genre defining. Love it
