Popular Reviews

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears by The Mamas & The Papas

Great album ! It's nice to have more references from the 60's, and most of the tracks would fit really well in a reading session.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac

Already listened to it. Like, it's just perfect. I mean I'll listen to it again no problem. But it's perfect. Did I mention it's perfect ?

1-Star Albums (11)

All Ratings (148)

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jan 09 2026

Real banger, 11/15 songs ended up in my playlist. - Knew Californication, Otherside and Scar Tissue beforehand. - Porcelain is probably the one that stands out the most by it's style yet it's really cool. Day 1 of cursing Spotify for refusing to play albums without Premium.

Low by David Bowie
Jan 10 2026

Up to Sound and Vision : Album might be the type you play to have good background sound. Pretty repetitive so far. Almost a synthwave vibe on some tracks. Up to Weeping Wall : I'm bored.

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Jan 11 2026

Just wow, damn. Gotta listen to Sonnet again some time. For some reason people love it, but it didn't quite enjoy it. Missing Come On/Deep Freeze. It's a 15 minutes track, so I was a bit lazy.

Eagles by Eagles
Jan 12 2026

Overall very chill tunes, either melancholic or cheerful, but quite laidback. Pretty relaxing. Solid album.

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Jan 13 2026

Decent but nothing really memorable ? Aside from Mr. Blue Sky which is an eternal banger lol.

Document by R.E.M.
Jan 14 2026

Having trouble finding something that stands out, but overall it's a nice album so far (up to Fireplace). Will probably rate it 3/5, unless one of the three last ones feels special, then it will be a decent 4/5.

D by White Denim
Jan 15 2026

Indie rock is cool but doesn't really match my vibe... Street Joy was pretty nice though.

Vauxhall And I by Morrissey
Jan 16 2026

Just learned that he's the singer of the band The Smiths. Really nice voice, actually. Not too much out of the ordinary, though, but had a good time listening. Worth checking.

The Yes Album by Yes
Jan 17 2026

You know it was great Especially A Venture Such a good album

Murder Ballads by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Jan 18 2026

Couldn't listen to the whole album, missing : - Crow Jane - O'Malleys Bar - Death is not the End Otherwise, very entertaining, thanks the various styles of songs, but also thanks to the lyrics of the songs, who ALL depict murder. Where the Wild Roses Grow is an absolute masterpiece. Really chilling song.

Jan 19 2026

Tones carrying both sorrow and cheer, with songs that can alternate between the two in a single track. Though the transition is pretty well done, it makes it hard for me to feel impacted. Whole album has a big "go with the flow" vibe (soul-ish style). Absolutely AMAZING voice.

Young Americans by David Bowie
Jan 20 2026

I'm bored as hell, honestly. At least he has a nice voice, but this feels blank.

Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Jan 21 2026

Didn't understand. Like, at all. I truly do not understand. Whole album is 1h10, I stopped after 10 minutes maximum.

Jan 22 2026

Nice voice and tunes, nothing much out of the ordinary but still decent ?? Don't know what to say in particular... That's how average it felt lmao.

Cut by The Slits
Jan 23 2026

For now it sounds more like reggae than punk rock to be fair... And I have trouble enjoying reggae 😅

Parklife by Blur
Jan 24 2026

A lot of tracks (16) but not too long (album is 52 minutes). It was enjoyable, some songs deserve more attention than they got, some didn't struck my mind as much as it did with most people. Lot 105 serves no purpose and is, as such, indispensable.

The Idiot by Iggy Pop
Jan 25 2026

Clearly felt Bowie's style, and I'm not sure if that's a compliment, given that I'm not a fan of his albums so far. Some tracks like Sister Midnight and China Girl were nice and I will probably listen to them again sometime, but overall it was... Meh.

Elvis Is Back by Elvis Presley
Jan 26 2026

Light tones, very free-spirited ? I would say I was bored, but the album has many songs for such a short time (12 songs in ~30 minutes, average of 2:30 per song). At least the pace makes it easy to listen to, because it lacks content.

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Jan 27 2026

Really good, although I've taken a better liking to the "rock style" ones rather than the slower paced ones. Which is ironic given the fact that the first the song by Led Zeppelin I've listen to was Stairway to Heaven. Amazing vocals and instrumentals.

Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jan 28 2026

Some tracks will have a niche place in my playlist, but overall this isn't really my style. I do recognise the tones of voice and instrumentals proper to reggae, but getting familiar with it isn't enough to make me like it constantly for now...

Vespertine by Björk
Jan 29 2026

Really great voice, a style that I could really like, but unfortunately the instrumentals are really weird and disturbing— sometimes they are straight up annoying. Most tracks are also really long (~6 minutes), which makes them hard to listen to when some moments don't sound right. Deserves to be remembered, though. Some albums may be better.

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Jan 30 2026

Quite good, reminds me of country. Harmonica might be a little too much for me, but folk rock is a genre that is to be appreciated.

Licensed To Ill by Beastie Boys
Jan 31 2026

First time listening to an hip-hop album, and I gotta say that it's a nice change of pace. Some tracks feel like the song isn't going anywhere, but some show a real harmony in the rhythm, tempo and rhymes.

Different Class by Pulp
Feb 02 2026

Most people I read in the comment sections on the songs compare Pulp to Blur and Oasis because of the genre they share (being Britpop) but honestly their style is really different from them, although in a good way. Very nice finding.

London Calling by The Clash
Feb 03 2026

An enjoyable album, with a few memorable songs, but that's pretty much it. Many songs (19 songs) for 5-6 better than average tracks. Otherwise, it's pure The Clash, which is a style I enjoy but wouldn't listen 24/7. Nice experience overall !

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
Feb 04 2026

Jazz is pretty boring in my opinion... Half of the album is just the same songs (and no, I don't mean a B-side).

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Feb 05 2026

Pretty chill, will have to go back to it some other time to explore what's been done.

Heroes by David Bowie
Feb 06 2026

Overall pretty boring... I STILL don't like Bowie's style. Some songs are "normal", though : Beauty and the Beast is a nice addition to my playlist and I already knew Heroes (by far the most popular track of the album) Under Pressure is still his best lmao.

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Feb 07 2026

Pour pain, war, helplessness, injustice and trauma into a bowl, and stir until it somehow comes out as soothing.

Pump by Aerosmith
Feb 08 2026

Classic Aerosmith here, with the instrumentals and the vibe that comes without saying with them. Very solid album.

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Feb 09 2026

First time trying soul, and it's actually pretty good. I don't enjoy those moments when the singer just blows it, though, it mostly hurts my ears... But great album overall.

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears by The Mamas & The Papas
Feb 10 2026

Great album ! It's nice to have more references from the 60's, and most of the tracks would fit really well in a reading session.

BEYONCÉ by Beyoncé
Feb 11 2026

Stopped at Blue because it's current 23:30, but great album. Reading while listening to it was very enjoyable, Beyonce does wonders with her voice, puts the emotion where and when it sounds the best.

Boston by Boston
Feb 12 2026

Pretty much my style when it comes to rock. Very solid reference !

Aha Shake Heartbreak by Kings of Leon
Feb 13 2026

Nothing much to say here. Their rock seems to be greatly influenced by country, which I'm not a fan of. Some songs (the first) were nice, but their best productions clearly aren't in this album.

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Feb 14 2026

I was a bit sceptical because, well, 'Murica and shit. But it's actually pretty cool. I remembered I already knew Dancing in the Dark, which is a very solid track on its own.

Trans Europe Express by Kraftwerk
Feb 16 2026

Great instrumentals, but the song takes almost two minutes to get interesting, when it actually gets interesting. Otherwise, it's just boring.

Pornography by The Cure
Feb 17 2026

The album was very different from what I'm used to with The Cure. The tone was much more somber, and I admin I don't know what to think of it at the moment. I do admit that it was enjoyable, at least.

NEU! 75 by Neu!
Feb 18 2026

Really original — so much that I'm not sure it would fit in my playlist — but a nice experience, especially while reading. One track was literally 10 minutes long, which was a bit annoying to be honest.

Devotional Songs by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Feb 19 2026

Just listened to the first one, and immediately understood I wouldn't be able to go all the way.

Time Out Of Mind by Bob Dylan
Feb 20 2026

Didn't get to fully listen to it, but I like it.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Feb 21 2026

Already listened to it. Like, it's just perfect. I mean I'll listen to it again no problem. But it's perfect. Did I mention it's perfect ?

Traffic by Traffic
Feb 23 2026

Mediocre at best... Some tracks feel repetitive and empty, the instrumentals and rhythm really don't appeal to me either. Pretty boring.

The Gershwin Songbook by Ella Fitzgerald
Feb 24 2026

Didn't listen to it because it's 3 hours long, so I'll just give it average.

Kala by M.I.A.
Feb 25 2026

Nice vibes, although I have absolutely no idea how I'll add those tracks to my playlist, because it's a completely new style to me.

Ocean Rain by Echo And The Bunnymen
Feb 26 2026

Nice. That's all. The New Wave vibe works wonders.

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Mar 01 2026

Hard to describe, but amazing to read to.

A Northern Soul by The Verve
Mar 02 2026

Underrated. Great instrumentals, and overall really easy to listen to. There's something in the tone that's really unique to The Verve, that I can't really describe, but that makes the whole album mesmerising.

I Should Coco by Supergrass
Mar 03 2026

It was alright, but not memorable.

Screamadelica by Primal Scream
Mar 04 2026

Nothing much to say here...

Gris Gris by Dr. John
Mar 06 2026

Not a fan of jazz.

Graceland by Paul Simon
Mar 07 2026

Great album. Don't know what to say else, except that I had a nice time listening to it. It felt light, easy to listen.

Suzanne Vega by Suzanne Vega
Mar 09 2026

Nice voice. I don't know what to say more.

Hms Fable by Shack
Mar 15 2026

Britpop is pretty cool overall.

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Mar 17 2026

Nice idk

White Light by Gene Clark
Mar 19 2026

Nice but a bit too different from my usual playlist to include properly into my routine. I lack references in the genre.

Bug by Dinosaur Jr.
Mar 23 2026

I really enjoyed the grunge style of the album — reminded me of Nirvana.

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Mar 24 2026

Reminded me of songs I haven't heard in ages. Great voice, although I found that it fits more with slower-paced songs.

Sound Affects by The Jam
Mar 25 2026

Honestly mid. Not bad enough for me to want to skip a track, but it would be really be fine as a background noise only. Some tracks sound like the previous one, and overall the album doesn't seem to experiment at all.

Ray Of Light by Madonna
Mar 26 2026

It was alright. Nothing much stood out to me, maybe because it's a style I'm not too knowledgeable about, but overall, the average song was enjoyable.

OK Computer by Radiohead
Mar 27 2026

I mean, it's not among the best ratings for nothing.

Sea Change by Beck
Mar 28 2026

A tad boring, to be honest.

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Mar 29 2026

It started okay— Pretty well, actually. But the rest is just a lot of "nggas and btches" with a tad of fcky fck fkcs. Rounding up to three for the first two tracks, but this was a long hour.

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
Mar 30 2026

Conveys a really nice atmosphere, one that I would have trouble describing as I pretty much never heard it in music. The closest I've known to this is Cigarettes After Sex, and that's a pretty big stretch.

Mar 31 2026

It's alright I guess. Some lyrics are straight up misogynistic and just make a song lame, but otherwise it perfectly conveys the chaotic and frustrated atmosphere of a social class that's still blamed for even existing.

Blunderbuss by Jack White
Apr 02 2026

It's more of a 3.5, so I'll round up. Nothing much to say about it though.

Eternally Yours by The Saints
Apr 03 2026

Sounds like "default" rock by definition.

Hounds Of Love by Kate Bush
Apr 04 2026

Running up that Hill is already worth the album four stars. The whole album sounds otherworldly, like you're on some weird drug that's somehow good for your brain. Some songs have a more "ordinary" tone, but the overall experience makes you want to just lie down and listen for 45 minutes.

Okay so. So far I really didn't enjoy Bowie's albums. The only times I liked some of his songs were before this website suggested anything. Now, this one is the most popular here. So I have some expectations. Update ; Yeah, it was great. By far the best one I've listened to until now.

Apr 08 2026

Meh. Some tracks were cool, but it's not my style. Just learned that he did Crazy with Gnales Barkley, though. Kinda cool.

Treasure by Cocteau Twins
Apr 10 2026

Unlike everything I know so far. This just sounded otherworldly, but in a great way, in a "Why am I finding out about this now ?" way.

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
Apr 11 2026

Pretty boring... A lasting feeling that the songs were made on improv' and never improved. Child in Time is great at first, but the solo just ruins everything. It serves no purpose, breaks the rhythm, the mood, everything, for 2:30 minutes before getting back to the song. This solo is like putting add for another track inside Child in Time. Perchance. Exception of the album, Black Night was really great.

Dub Housing by Pere Ubu
Apr 12 2026

Chaotic lyrics. Sounds weird at times. I fail to see the point of most songs. Anyway it was great.

Heaven Or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins
Apr 16 2026

It was great. Amazing vibes. Reminds me a bit of Holy Motors, but in probably better.

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
Apr 17 2026

It was nice. The album is made so you basically listen to the entire concert.

Apr 24 2026

A bit weird. What's the point in making a 18 minutes track if it's going to change so drastically ? Just divide it in 4-6 separate songs, idk. Otherwise it was nice ??

Crime Of The Century by Supertramp
Apr 25 2026

I still don't know what to think of progressive rock in general, as some albums I've listened to were straight up weird. But this one wasn't. Rounding up to 4/5 for the great mood.

The Soft Bulletin by The Flaming Lips
Apr 26 2026

Felt like a ride back home in the night. Had a great moment.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Apr 28 2026

I forgot but it was great.

Roots by Sepultura
Apr 29 2026

Sounds too much like a typical "cliché" metal album. Instrumentals are fine, but the vocals are just plain old groaning into the mic. Yeah, no, I've heard better.

So by Peter Gabriel
May 03 2026

Some songs have a Phil Collins vibe kinda ?? I really felt like I was listening to Genesis at some point, this was great.

Ten by Pearl Jam
May 04 2026

*breathes in* EEEVEN FLOOOOOOW— Seriously though, amazing album. Mentioning only Even Flow would be disrespectful to it. The whole thing is a no skip.

On The Beach by Neil Young
May 05 2026

Nice, but that's it.

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
May 06 2026

Just 40 minutes of adrenaline, kinda cool.

C'est Chic by CHIC
May 07 2026

Uhhhh not my style.

Bongo Rock by Incredible Bongo Band
May 08 2026

I mean, it was great, but it's bongos. I have no idea how I'm going to add this to a daily playlist lmao.

Kollaps by Einstürzende Neubauten
May 11 2026

Uhhhh no.

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
May 12 2026

Yeah, no, I don't understand the reviews rating this a 1 just because it's Nick Cave. It was great, really. Not perfect, but a good time.

Synchronicity by The Police
May 19 2026

Far from being as good as I expected. Every Breath you Take is the exception of the album.

S.F. Sorrow by The Pretty Things
May 22 2026

It was not memorable. I feel like I keep thinking this since the middle of the week, AITA ?

Dookie by Green Day
May 23 2026

Actually great.

Phaedra by Tangerine Dream
May 24 2026

Felt very pointless.

Legalize It by Peter Tosh
May 25 2026

Legalize what now ? 🤨

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
May 26 2026

Banger after banger, wow. I barely know the band and the subject they tackle, but whatever, this was great.

Shadowland by k.d. lang
May 27 2026

Definitely not my style, I won't be adding any of this to my playlists. But it didn't felt horrible to listen to. It was quite alright, actually. Rounding up to 4 stars.

The Rolling Stones by The Rolling Stones
May 29 2026

Already not a fan of Stones, and this album really doesn't have anything for itself.

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Jun 01 2026

Uh... Skeptical ? I'm not familiar with Paul Simon's personal style, and even though the album is was overall a good experience, I don't know what to make of it...

Tarkus by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Jun 03 2026

Now this album's a bit weird. The first track takes the most of it, being 20 minutes long, while the six others have a regular lenght. I used to dislike King Crimson for their oversized songs, but Tarkus keeps the same style (kinda) while making it enjoyable from start to finish. Great find.

Nevermind by Nirvana
Jun 05 2026

Smell Like Teen Spirit is overrated. Not that it's bad, but damn the rest is so much better.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Jun 09 2026

Swing isn't my thing, but it was alright. Keeping this in a corner of my Spotify account lmao.

Remain In Light by Talking Heads
Jun 11 2026

Very unique style which I'm not very fond of. Psycho Killer is great (not even in this one lol) but afaik that's it.

Run-D.M.C. by Run-D.M.C.
Jun 12 2026

Hip-hop AGAIN ??? This had nothing special, really. Boring as hell.

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Jun 16 2026

Psycho Killer... KESKECÉ— FAFAFAFAFA FAFAFAFAFA FAR BETTER Anyway, the rest of the album is alright.

Suede by Suede
Jun 17 2026

It was great, I never knew this before, and I'll gladly listen to their other stuff. I'm terrible at making reviews.

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Jun 20 2026

I'm not too fond of The Cure, but so far they're just "alright".

Timeless by Goldie
Jun 22 2026

Weird vibe, but enjoyable.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Jun 23 2026

Alternative rock would just be better rock if everyone was like him. R.I.P Jeff, you had great taste.

Rocks by Aerosmith
Jun 26 2026

Eh, not the best, not the worst.

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Jun 27 2026

Lame ??

Pieces Of The Sky by Emmylou Harris
Jun 28 2026

Great album, love her voice, makes me want to sleep, reminds me of Stephanie Nick's voice (Fleetwood Mac)

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Jun 29 2026

Cocteau Twins but different (amazing review I know hush)

War by U2
Jul 01 2026
Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine
Jul 06 2026

Some tracks feel redundant, the style is easily recognizable but you're almost happy the album ends before you start getting bored. Great tracks, though.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Jul 07 2026

It reminds me of Yes on some parts, making the experience really nice for roughly half of the album. The other half... Didn't really stick much to me.

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Jul 08 2026

I half listened, to be fair. I found myself bored. It's not bad, it's not good, it's... There.

Damaged by Black Flag
Jul 30 2026

"Punk music placeholder", the album. Seriously, it was exactly what you could imagine punk rock is, with a high dose of teen angst. It wasn't BAD, just... Typical.
