The College Dropout by Kanye West

Fantastic debut. Let's hope this guy doesn't do anything weird.

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Jan 02 2026

Bem produzido, não é entediante. Um disco de metal que não é barulho por barulho; sabe respirar e tem ritmo e ideias claras. Instrumentais e vocais muito bons. Achei o álbum criativo como um todo, trazendo elementos que não parecem tão óbvios à primeira vista.

Low by David Bowie
Jan 05 2026

Álbum incrível, criativo e com uma sonoridade fora do normal. Nenhuma parte desse disco soa incapaz ou fora do lugar, tudo tem razão de existir e dá sentido à obra. Destaque para as faixas instrumentais que têm sons que mesmo hoje são difíceis de encontrar, de uma maneira completamente interessante e rica.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jan 06 2026

Um dos melhores álbuns já feitos. Sufjan é um gênio.

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Jan 07 2026

it insists upon itself.

Aja by Steely Dan
Jan 08 2026

As far as production goes, impeccable. The songs are all good, but I personally feel no motivation coming back to this album, except maybe for one or two songs. In the end, I feel the album has more going on in its backbone than in the final product.

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Jan 09 2026

Good album, some weak moments.

Tapestry by Carole King
Jan 13 2026

perfect

D by White Denim
Jan 15 2026

Sounds good. Definitely one of the albums ever made. You can die without hearing it, though.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Jan 16 2026

Not really my cup of tea. I really don't like the guitar tones on the record, and the overall songwriting didn't really click with me. I'm gonna say, though, the most famous songs on the album are outstanding, and I feel like the band is at its best when they allow for a bit of contrast, so I wish there were more of that.

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
Jan 19 2026

Maybe it's because I'm not American, but I can't really see the appeal

System Of A Down by System Of A Down
Jan 21 2026

I had only listened to SOAD's most popular songs and was pretty surprised by the quality of the deepcuts on this record, although I'm not a big fan of the genre.

Konnichiwa by Skepta
Jan 22 2026

British rap is kinda lame, not gonna lie, although this album has something going on for it on the production side. You can die without listening to it.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Jan 26 2026

You can clearly tell the band would end up where they have recently, musically speaking. In hindsight, it's mostly indie-pop slop with a lot of pseudo-intellectualism and sometimes overbearing noise and sonic elements that make the production value very weird to me. To address the big (pink) elephant in the room, it's impossible not to feel that it is disingenuous the way the band portrays its sound and themes, knowing what we know today about its lead singer. Oh, and by the way, I'm gonna die before I listen to any more of Win Butler singing.

Bryter Layter by Nick Drake
Jan 27 2026

Very beautiful. The arrangements are truly great.

Sex Packets by Digital Underground
Jan 29 2026

The second half of this record really drops the ball to me. Side A is an excellent, fun, and funky hip-hop record.

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
Jan 30 2026

I don't think it's great; it's the kind of rock and roll that got very dated. But, at least it's honest; it sets out to do something and does that well, even though I don't found particularly good.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Feb 02 2026

This is terrible beyond salvation. This almost broke me. That's it, I couldn't bring myself to finish this awful record.

Heroes by David Bowie
Feb 03 2026

Even better than Low. A really good record with amazing guitar lines by Robert Fripp, amazing arrangements, amazing productions, and super-good writing.

Dust by Screaming Trees
Feb 04 2026

First time listen. Really liked.

Street Signs by Ozomatli
Feb 06 2026

Very mediocre music with a Latin twist. I hate this genre mashup nonsense that Americans do; Latin music could and should stand on its own, it isn't made interesting just because you put rap over it. Couldn't bring myself to finish.

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails
Feb 09 2026

I can't really explain why I found this album interesting. I do like the anger and the sound of it. In the end, it's an interesting listen, which is way more than some of the albums here.

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Feb 10 2026
Triangle by The Beau Brummels
Feb 12 2026
The Specials by The Specials
Feb 13 2026

Great vibes, a little bit tiring. Remember to consume Ska in small doses.

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
Feb 19 2026

Didn't like it at all. It's very 90s in all bad ways that can be.

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Feb 24 2026
The College Dropout by Kanye West
Feb 26 2026

Fantastic debut. Let's hope this guy doesn't do anything weird.

Teen Dream by Beach House
Mar 18 2026

Absolutely fantastic

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk

man sad machine goes brrrrr man happy

#1 Record by Big Star
Apr 09 2026

This record was bound to get a good review just because it has Thirtheen a.k.a. the best song ever made in it. But overall is a pretty solid work.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Apr 21 2026

I made the mistake of reading some of the reviews, and a lot of disdain for this record seems to come from the era in which it existed. In a way, ya know? Fair play to them. I hate this new indie-rock revival happening right now, as I hated the pop enthusiasm of the early 2020s. But I digress, Fleet Foxes was able to build some of the most beautiful songs in their first two projects, with the indie folkish instrumentation combining with their amazing harmonies. This record in particular takes you to a different place, greatly transporting its moods to the listener, making you feel and engage with the sounds. This is peak by the band. P.S. Robin, if you ever read this, Fleet Foxes was great when it was the whole band, no matter how much you try to change the past and talk as if the band was always just you, please destroy your ego.

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Apr 27 2026
