Couldn't even remember what this sounded like by the end of the day.

1-Star Albums (3)

All Ratings (174)

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Jan 07 2026

Commendable first album boys.

Power In Numbers by Jurassic 5
Jan 08 2026

Great mixing. Covers many styles and samples.

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis
Jan 09 2026

Very mild, a little boring. Would be better live.

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Jan 10 2026

Lots of hits, knowing they're from Berklee kind of clashes with the very intimate southern and blues themes.

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane
Jan 11 2026

Outside of the hits it's pretty bland, Plastic Fantastic Lover is strange and clashes thematically.

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Jan 12 2026

Last song is cool, good length.

21 by Adele
Jan 13 2026

Would be a 4 star if actively going through a breakup. Crazy how young she was when this blew up.

Eagles by Eagles
Jan 14 2026

It's all power chords, guitar tone is anemic. The "chugging" song is weird, were they forbidden to swear?

BEYONCÉ by Beyoncé
Jan 15 2026

It's not for me. 2.5/5

Doolittle by Pixies
Jan 16 2026

What every 90s alt band wants to sound like. 4.2/5

Jan 20 2026

Dont know what they're saying but it sounds good. 3.7/5

Billion Dollar Babies by Alice Cooper
Jan 21 2026

Probably scary as hell in 72, nowadays just fun goofy rock.

Jan 23 2026

Tainted Love cant hold this up, "Seedy Films" had many flat vocal runs à la Yoko Ono. 1.5/5

I’m a Lonesome Fugitive by Merle Haggard
Jan 25 2026

Average outlaw country sound, not terrible but there is certainly better.

Crazysexycool by TLC

Wah Wah is cool, didn't enjoy this.

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys

Still goes dooweeoooo, but less goofy than earlier albums.

Lots of sounds that kinda fit together. 3.2/5

The Hour Of Bewilderbeast by Badly Drawn Boy
Feb 04 2026

True neutral opinion on this, dont know if i'd call it essential listening.

Junkyard by The Birthday Party
Feb 06 2026

If you like nick cave you'll love this. because he's in it.

Live At The Regal by B.B. King

Feb 09 2026

More matured than the early albums.

Iron Maiden by Iron Maiden

Softer than the cover would suggest.

Feb 11 2026

Very passionate french music. Too bad I cant speak french. 3.8/5

The Slider by T. Rex
Feb 13 2026

This was ok, a few strange vocal choices throughout. 3.3/5

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
Feb 14 2026

It was fine, some songs lost me, but Life on Mars? Is great.

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Feb 16 2026

Need to relisten with lyrics on front of me. Damn good.

I liked this, gonna revisit.

Live / Dead by Grateful Dead
Mar 01 2026

Almost tolerable.

Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine
Mar 02 2026

Chunky and heavy, but hard to take them seriously when Morello sells $2000 guitars made with underpaid labor and Zach sits on his 30 million like a dragon. "I'm Tom Morello and this is my masterclass."

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Mar 03 2026

Hit after hit, THE Ozzy era album.

Fever Ray by Fever Ray
Mar 04 2026

Cursive singing, lyrically bland Björk cover band. Though it could be a pretty good ambient album if they would keep their mouths shut. 2.4/5

New Boots And Panties by Ian Dury
Mar 05 2026

The music and vocals aren't the problem here, it's the gross, pervy and strange lyrics. I have no wish to revisit this.

Private Dancer by Tina Turner
Mar 06 2026

This poor band sounds so bored. There was what, 4 covers on this? None of them can stand up to the original.

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan
Mar 07 2026

Soft rock can get boring quick, luckily this was only 33 minutes. Definition of OK.

Rising Above Bedlam by Jah Wobble's Invaders Of The Heart
Mar 08 2026

Interesting, guest vocals were nice. 3.4/5

1984 by Van Halen
Mar 10 2026

Pornography by The Cure
Mar 13 2026

It's what I expected from The Cure. Meh. 2.7/5

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Mar 14 2026

Their most popular release and for good reason. Not one track is out of place.

Dr. Octagonecologyst by Dr. Octagon
Mar 15 2026

Zaney and Crass. Gotta admit it's a unique concept. 3.7/5

Songs From A Room by Leonard Cohen
Mar 16 2026

Not as good as his later work in my opinion. Apples to oranges I suppose. 3.8/5

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Mar 17 2026

The hits are great, the rest was average imo. 3.5/5

Felt Mountain by Goldfrapp
Mar 18 2026

Both ambient and striking. 3.5/5

Moss Side Story by Barry Adamson
Mar 19 2026

Conceptually very interesting, but not as gripping as i would have liked. 3.7/5

Mar 20 2026

When I think of hip hop this is about what it sounds like. 3.6/5

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Mar 22 2026

Every big hit is on this, Mr Brightside is a classic for a reason. 3.9/5

3 Feet High and Rising by De La Soul
Mar 23 2026

Samples plus samples plus samples as well as some samples. 3.9/5

Sunday At The Village Vanguard by Bill Evans Trio
Mar 25 2026

Clean and moody, like the crowd noise. I don't know music theory enough to fully appreciate this. 3.5/5

A Little Deeper by Ms. Dynamite
Mar 26 2026

Too long, not my thing. 2.9/5

Rattlesnakes by Lloyd Cole And The Commotions
Mar 27 2026

New wave without any edge. 2.7/5

Appetite For Destruction by Guns N' Roses
Mar 31 2026

The hits are ok but the rest is so corny. Everything they do Judas Priest did so much better. 2.9/5

War by U2
Apr 01 2026

Nothing really to complain about. 3.4/5

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

Medúlla by Björk
Apr 10 2026

Strange but pleasant. 3.6/5

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Apr 12 2026

It was fine but I really don't like his voice.

Time Out Of Mind by Bob Dylan
Apr 13 2026

Rambling lyrically. Not Bluesy enough while lacking the signature Dylan sound. 2.8/5

The White Room by The KLF
Apr 19 2026

I forgot I listened to this. 2.8/5

Let England Shake by PJ Harvey
May 20 2026

Underwhelming cover but good music throughout.

All Hail the Queen by Queen Latifah
