Fairly uninteresting. 'Bullet the Blue Sky' was the most interesting song there, and probably the best, but still didn't fully grab me. Fairly standard with mediocre, slightly annoying vocals. Not terrible, but not really worth a listen.

Dec 17 2025

Already listened to this one. Strong 9/10. Second best Beatles album. They don't miss. 'A day in the life' is an excellent closer but all the songs here have charm. Superb album

Reggatta De Blanc by The Police
Dec 18 2025

'Message in a bottle' is a great opener along with 'No time this time' being a good closer. Songs are groovy and upbeat with nice melodies but a lot of the middle songs suffer from being forgettable. Overall enjoyable album. Weak 7/10.

At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Dec 20 2025

Decent and charming. Fairly standard but mostly enjoyable.

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Dec 23 2025

Already listened. Just very solid, well executed pop music. 'Thriller', 'Beat it', and 'Billie jean' are great songs. I love Paul McCartney but his song with Michael Jackson is a little basic, but is so self-aware in its cheesiness that it's somewhat endearing.

Oedipus Schmoedipus by Barry Adamson
Dec 28 2025

I definitely vibe with this one. The creepiness and the chilling atmosphere never left, but the album never got stale

Debut by Björk
Dec 30 2025

Not her best work, but still some bangers

The Healer by John Lee Hooker
Dec 31 2025

Quite boring and generic. Did nothing for me

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Jan 06 2026
Kings Of The Wild Frontier by Adam & The Ants
Jan 09 2026

Good start and interesting stuff but run out of ideas towards the end and ruin what could have been a very interesting album

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Jan 20 2026

Already listened. Weak 7/10

The Contino Sessions by Death In Vegas
Jan 22 2026

Some good songs. The opener in particular was very good. Most of the rest of it was just not my style

Rio by Duran Duran
Jan 23 2026
Rubber Soul by Beatles
Jan 27 2026

Already listened. Strong 7/10. Last track 'Run for your life' is bizarrely bad and creepy

The Doors by The Doors
Feb 10 2026

The more experimental second half is more interesting to me than the first. The most popular song is the opener which seems odd as it seems rather basic rock. 'The Crystal Ship' is rather beautiful while 'Light My Fire', 'Back Door Man', 'The End' are more interesting and lean in the psychedelic vibes.

The Slim Shady LP by Eminem
Feb 11 2026

Already listened. A bit rough around the edges and has aged poorly in places. Shows good promise though and some good earnest songs

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Feb 12 2026

Already listened. Strong 9/10. Second only to Ride the Lightning in Metallica's discography

Drunk by Thundercat
Feb 13 2026
Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Feb 17 2026

Already listened. Solid 6/10. Not quite on full form here but some bangers like 'Psycho Killer'

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Feb 18 2026
