The Score by Fugees
Dec 24 2025

Great production. Some great songs. Loved the bass and drum sound. Seemed like smart clever lyrics.. More like 3.5 stars for me.

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Dec 29 2025

Solid album. Straight forward songs done well. Nice reminder of how many good songs are in this album.

Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Dec 30 2025

Kind of a letdown for me. Understand the influence and would’ve cited it as a “great” album but found that after not actually listening to it in like 25 years I just didn’t enjoy the songs that much

Led Zeppelin II by Led Zeppelin
Dec 31 2025

Classic for a reason. Appreciated the flow of songs

Shalimar by Rahul Dev Burman
Jan 01 2026

What an adventure!

Tommy by The Who
Jan 02 2026

Some good songs but I kind of find it to drag on. Enjoyed more in the beginning half. A little on the creepy side too

Low by David Bowie
Jan 05 2026

Not what I was expecting. Really grew on me through the album into the moody instrumental songs. Some Reich-like vibes, some really great synth work.

Van Halen by Van Halen
Jan 06 2026

Great rock. Eddie is so casually excellent it’s easy to just listen to him the whole album and forget the songs are rocking too

#1 Record by Big Star
Jan 07 2026

Wasn’t ready for that 70s show theme song. Songs were all good but never really hooked me. Thought it finished stronger than started

Jan 08 2026

Casually moody. Felt like a rainy afternoon with nothing but a bottle of wine and a bottle of Xanax. Great vocal performance. Wish the instruments were a little more forward in the mix but that’s a nitpick.

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Jan 09 2026

Sounds like Papa. Great easy listening sax/guitar jazz

Dog Man Star by Suede
Jan 14 2026

Technically sound/good but could shake the feeling that it sounded like Ricky gervais and Russel brand making an album together.
