Popular Reviews

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes

this is an example of why i cannot write off an album before i have listened to the whole thing. the first 8 songs were pretty unenjoyable but then “we’re going to be friends” came on which was very enjoyable and i wouldn’t have found it had i stopped listening to the album

The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monáe

finally a modern album lol. i actually love janelle but have never listened to their music so i am really excited. okay 1/3 through and i am enjoying the album even though its different than i had originally expected. okay im loving this way more than i thought i would.

Liege And Lief by Fairport Convention

it was 60s folk and i enjoyed it more than i thought it would

Ray Of Light by Madonna

it was honestly a more philosophical and spiritual album than i was expecting

5 Incredible album, listened for the first time a couple months ago. stevie really is one of the best songwriters and singers of all time.

Here's Little Richard by Little Richard
Dec 12 2025

not my favorite but i kept hearing elvis’s voice when little richard was singing

Dec 17 2025

different than other songs i’ve heard by the beatles. more fun and obviously this album was known for being recorded and written on hallucinogenics.

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Dec 19 2025

people think this is a patriotic album, but it’s a critique on the american dream. his music feels like it’s a part of my dna

She's So Unusual by Cyndi Lauper
Dec 30 2025

already love the cover art and i know some of cyndi’s most famous songs are on here so im excited

Tical by Method Man
Dec 31 2025

as someone who listens to a lot of hip-hop/rap i wish i enjoyed more og rap. i think it’s interesting because a lot of the production on this album was similar to artists i really enjoy like the refugees and lauryn hill.

Jan 01 2026

i have never heard of this band or album so i honestly have no idea what to expect. sounded like weird electronic covers of songs that already existed

Cypress Hill by Cypress Hill
Jan 02 2026

another og rap album but i’ve never listened to them. will be interesting to compare this to the method man album from earlier this week. just off the first song i am getting more of a west coast vibe

The White Album by Beatles
Jan 03 2026

i’ve kind of always been a self proclaimed beatles hater but this album is very enjoyable. honestly i’m enjoying the whole story a lot more than i would have expected. halfway through and looking up copies of the album for my record player lol

Jan 14 2026

literally no idea what this is going to sound like lol. the album cover looks like a modern day rap album but this is from 1986. and the title of the album is throwing me off. here we go, very folky and enjoyable

Teen Dream by Beach House
Jan 15 2026

very enjoyable while driving, reading, dissociating

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse

Trio by Dolly Parton
Feb 25 2026

the 3 of their voices together genuinely sounded like the perfect melody

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Mar 07 2026

i actually have this album on vinyl and have enjoyed it. i usually listen to these albums with my headphones which always feels more immersive. honestly way shorter than i thought it would be. crazy how you can just imagine this music really giving off a strong emotion in the background of an old black and white movie

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Mar 10 2026

it wasn’t objectively bad but it was not my cup of tea. maybe if i was drunk and it was summer and i was 19?

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Mar 12 2026

makes you feel like you shouldn’t take anything too seriously

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman

powerful message about love, family, and domestic violence. i love fast car so i really wanted to love it but i wasn’t blown away by a lot of the songs

A Seat at the Table by Solange
Mar 23 2026

a beautiful tribute to the challenges of black creatives

May 03 2026
Paranoid by Black Sabbath
May 07 2026

sounds like classic 80s rock

Thriller by Michael Jackson
May 09 2026
Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
May 12 2026

actually like this more than the other album i listened to by him that’s more famous. it sounds more like bruce springsteen’s nebraska. more singing than talking and not so drawn out.

Germfree Adolescents by X-Ray Spex
May 15 2026

it was probably what people of the 70s thought future music would sound like

Is This It by The Strokes
May 23 2026

idk why but i thought this band was from like the 80s. fire album cover. i actually really enjoyed how the main singer sounds like he is singing far away. solid guitar and drum additions

May 25 2026
Kid A by Radiohead
May 26 2026
Drunk by Thundercat
May 29 2026
Debut by Björk
Jun 02 2026

my first listen by her. i really enjoyed this album and it really reminded me of janelle monae who no doubly took inspiration from bjork

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Jun 08 2026

bruce can do no wrong in my eyes. this wasn’t an album my parents played much growing up so i listened for the first time last year. i loved seeing a different side of an artist i had loved all my life. i saw the biopic with jeremy allen white at the same time and that made me appreciate this album in a new way.

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder
Jun 09 2026

i remember the first time i listened to this album and i really understood why he is regarded as one of the best. this album is one of the rare ones i will classify as timeless- meaning it could have come out at any time and it would still be meaningful and enjoyable

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
Jun 11 2026

he is a terrible human being but man can he make music

Club Classics Vol. One by Soul II Soul
Jun 24 2026

this was an eclectic album where there really wasn’t a cohesive piece. kind of felt like a bunch of random singles put together but each song was pretty good on its own

The Blueprint by JAY Z
Jun 25 2026

i really enjoyed this but i thought it was interesting that this came out on 9/11/01

Low by David Bowie
Jun 26 2026

mostly instrumental but i enjoyed how intentional it felt

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club
Jun 29 2026

i never listen to spanish music but i honestly really liked the uplifting feeling i had while listening

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jul 01 2026
3 Feet High and Rising by De La Soul
Jul 07 2026

this was a very unique album it was fun yet also serious and a lot of songs felt like remixes of older songs

Queen Of Denmark by John Grant
Jul 12 2026

first thought- i was not expecting this to sound like sufjan stevens. not in voice but in content. it also reminds me of the beatles in the way of production and cadence. i can’t believe this was made in 2010

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Jul 15 2026

she can do no wrong in my eyes. i would listen to her sing my grocery list

Ocean Rain by Echo And The Bunnymen
Jul 24 2026

eclectic mix of upbeat and softer songs

Aja by Steely Dan
Jul 28 2026

it’s funky it’s jazzy and it’s poppy

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Jul 29 2026
Stardust by Willie Nelson
Aug 03 2026

this is one of those albums that before i started i didn’t think i would like but it’s honestly beautiful and im only halfway through. this is kind of jazzy with the piano

My Generation by The Who
Aug 08 2026

if you told me this was the beatles or the rolling stones i would have believed you

Ray Of Light by Madonna
Aug 10 2026

it was honestly a more philosophical and spiritual album than i was expecting

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues
Aug 13 2026

definitely nothing like i’ve heard before in my life and even though i couldn’t understand the words i felt the vibes
