Popular Reviews

The Pleasure Principle by Gary Numan

I appreciate the innovative nature of the album, especially for its time- however as the album progresses the songs do sound more and more the same

1-Star Albums (9)

All Ratings (30)

Low by David Bowie
Jan 06 2026

I enjoyed the electronic nature to the album, there were a lot of instrumentals though which is not usually my preference

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Jan 07 2026

Not my type of music, didn’t love the preppy nature

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Jan 09 2026

Not a massive fan of Springsteen’s voice and I find it makes a lot of the songs sound the same

Licensed To Ill by Beastie Boys
Jan 12 2026

Could only listen to two songs, the lyrics were disturbing and I hated the sound

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Jan 13 2026

I loved this album already

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
Jan 15 2026

Absolutely love the title, some of the songs are amazing but others are so experimental that it doesn’t always leave it to easy listening

Third by Portishead
Jan 16 2026

The transitions in the album were horrendous which made it feel like a series of singles rather than a complete project- I also don’t like the vocalist and therefore couldn’t listen to the whole thing

Bad by Michael Jackson
Jan 20 2026

The album includes some absolute Micheal Jackson classics

Dirty by Sonic Youth
Jan 21 2026

This wasn’t for me, I wouldn’t mind if someone put it on but I am not rushing to listen to it again

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Jan 23 2026

Dolly Parton is a legend, due to the uniqueness of her voice it can make each song sound similar

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Jan 27 2026

I really like Michael’s voice and will be listening to the album again

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jan 28 2026

Am not a fan of music that focuses on lyrical poetry at the expense of listenability

The Pleasure Principle by Gary Numan
Jan 29 2026

I appreciate the innovative nature of the album, especially for its time- however as the album progresses the songs do sound more and more the same

Feb 02 2026

I enjoyed the jazz influence on this album but am not a massive fan of long songs as I can find them a bit monotonous

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Feb 03 2026

I am not a massive fan of the vocals on this

British Steel by Judas Priest
Feb 05 2026

Not my favourite style of music

Private Dancer by Tina Turner
Feb 10 2026

I didn’t listen to the whole album as I got a little disinterested a couple of songs in, however the woman is an icon so was probably an issue with my mood at the time

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Feb 12 2026

Really enjoyed this

Future Days by Can
Feb 13 2026

Not my types of music at all

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Feb 16 2026

I enjoyed this but didnt listen to the whole thing

At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band
Feb 17 2026

I really enjoyed this album
