Popular Reviews

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone

I find this overall more cohesive than There's A Riot Goin On. "Stand!" the song is just too good.

L.A. Woman by The Doors
Jan 19 2026

Relisten needed but prolly a 4

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar
Jan 20 2026

Cant say it's bad but definetly not my taste.

Feb 04 2026

Any album this long will eventually tire me out. This one especially tired me out. But there can be no denying this is some kick as music.

Sound of Silver by LCD Soundsystem
Feb 05 2026

It's certainly a subgenre of music... maybe it'll grow on me someday but today ain't the day.

Hounds Of Love by Kate Bush
Feb 06 2026

I cannot stand her voice/singing...

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Feb 10 2026

I guess I'm not a fan of Radiohead "experimenting" because some of the songs here (Spinning Blades - Revolving Doors) just sound horrendous. I couldn't hear anything from other Radiohead songs I liked. Knives Out was the only salvagable track here and even that sounds very uninspired. But then *Life in a Glass House* came at the last minute and by no means saved this album but at least left a nice taste in my mouth.

Porcupine by Echo And The Bunnymen
Feb 11 2026

Uninspired... Expected more.

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
Feb 13 2026

His voice is still there but I couldn't find anything interesting in the music.

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Feb 16 2026

Seems like my favorite Dylan but might require a relisten

Murmur by R.E.M.
Feb 17 2026

Just didn't have any fun with it.

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Feb 18 2026

7/10 - Lively performance but just doesn't strike me.

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Feb 20 2026

Might deserve a re-listen

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Feb 23 2026

Might relisten, might not - "Changes" was good.

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues
Feb 24 2026

A very unique sound. Africa takes back the blues, hell yeah.

The Specials by The Specials
Feb 25 2026

Just unbearable for me.

Damaged by Black Flag
Feb 26 2026

Could hardly finish. Punk is not ded (unfortunetly)

All Directions by The Temptations
Feb 28 2026

Might deserve a re-listen

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Mar 01 2026

Say Yes / Pictures of Me I really like Elliot Smith's vibes, feels somber but also very light at the same time. Like when you eat too much, so much that you feel you'd explode if you eat anything else except a little piece of candy. It's that piece of candy.

I Am a Bird Now by Antony and the Johnsons
Mar 02 2026

Seems like one of those albums that need to hit you in the right moment to enjoy, I wasn't in that moment.

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Mar 03 2026

Talking Heads really put the fear of music in me after this one. Oof talk about a one-hit wonder band.

I See A Darkness by Bonnie "Prince" Billy
Mar 04 2026

Deeply somber album with great tracks. Might deserve a deeper look at the lyrics.

Street Signs by Ozomatli
Mar 05 2026

It barely passes for me because it has an undeniably unique sound but aside from the first few tracks the album doesn't do it for me.

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Mar 06 2026

Teenager hipster shit. Unbearable.

At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band
Mar 07 2026

Not bad music by any means, they have a pretty good blues sound going but it feels very unremarkable.

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Mar 25 2026

Pet Sounds

Superfuzz Bigmuff by Mudhoney
May 13 2026

If I wanted to hear shitty music, I'd go take a shit.

Blood, Sweat & Tears by Blood, Sweat & Tears
May 14 2026

Amazing jazz-rock album. Sure, the last track overstays its welcome by a lot but it does not degrade an album filled with such a groovy sound.

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
May 15 2026

A pretty standard classic rock album from the 50s. Reliable. Maybe Baby / Oh Boy / That'll Be The Day / It's Too Late

Is This It by The Strokes
May 16 2026

Is This It / Someday / Last Nite / Hard to Explain Pretty cool. The band seems promising. Cohesive album, there wasn't a single track that pulled the album down for me.

Cut by The Slits
May 17 2026

I appreciate their style but it's not for me. Spend, Spend, Spend and Newtown was good. I didn't like their Grapevine cover which was when I realized The Slits is not for me.

2112 by Rush
May 19 2026

Relisten priority

Music From Big Pink by The Band
May 21 2026

A few heavy hitters here, other than that most songs aren't that impressive but definetly got that "sound."

S&M by Metallica
May 22 2026

My first true exposure to Metallica. Electricfying live performance.

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
May 23 2026

B-side was a drag but that A-side, oh man. Some fine hiphop.

25 by Adele
May 24 2026

Don't remember anything other than Hello. might relisten, might not.

Chris by Christine and the Queens
May 25 2026

Androgynous French Taylor Swift with a British accent. 1.5 hour album. Get the fuck outta here.

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears by The Mamas & The Papas
May 26 2026

An album synonymous with the 60s. The covers here while don't surpass the originals by any margin carry the band's iconic sound. Always felt "Straight Shooter" was heavily underrated, that bass line is cold. "Go Where You Wanna Go" aka "Michelle Phillips wants to fuck around" is also a heavy hitter to me.

Viva Hate by Morrissey
May 27 2026

Viva Hate indeed....

Make Yourself by Incubus
May 28 2026

Alright I guess but too tame.

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road by Lucinda Williams
May 29 2026

Too generic, even for country standards. I like my country songs non-wishy-washy.

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
May 30 2026

Undeniably groovy.

My Aim Is True by Elvis Costello
May 31 2026

Props to him for inventing 2010 hipster music I guess. Imagine making such generic music in the 70s of all decades.

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Jun 02 2026

Got respect for Gorillaz but this is an okay album at best...

Made In Japan by Deep Purple
Jun 03 2026

Might relisten, might not. As far as live albums go, it's nothing impressive. As long as rock goes, also not super impressive.

Repeater by Fugazi
Jun 04 2026

Unlistenable.

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Jun 05 2026

Might relisten - Solid as far as I remember though.

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Jun 06 2026

Not my jam but pretty cool. Won't relisten.

Imagine by John Lennon
Jun 08 2026

Jealous Guy's pretty cool. Oh My Love is a criminally underrated track. The album, mostly but not wholly feels very soothing, Gimme Some Truth is the outlier here but it's not a bad track by any means. How Do You Sleep? aka Fuck You Paul is interesting to listen to. It's so full of anger and jealously and sounds funny in an album that features Imagine. Speaking of which, no words necessary. Hard to rate the album featuring one of the greatest songs of all time lover than 4.

1984 by Van Halen
Jun 09 2026

I GET UP

Darklands by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Jun 10 2026

Not that I think it's amazing but this stuff's way better than any shit The Smiths and their types have produced..

There's A Riot Goin' On by Sly & The Family Stone
Jun 11 2026

I guess it's important and all but really couldn't dig it.

Heartattack And Vine by Tom Waits
Jun 12 2026

I still don't see the appeal but this is a good album. I like the A-side better as it feels more Tom Waits whereas the B-side feels like a Tom Waits spin on a different style of music. I don't like the juxatoposition of his raspy voice with soft instrumentals.

Cloud Nine by The Temptations
Jun 13 2026

Might relisten to figure out why I liked it so much.

Country Life by Roxy Music
Jun 14 2026

My least favorite Roxy Music album. Praire Rose is a banger, the rest are very hit or miss, mostly miss.

The Modern Lovers by The Modern Lovers
Jun 15 2026

Don't remember don't care enough to relisten to.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Jun 16 2026

Brown Sugar / Wild Horses / Can't You Hear Me Knocking / I Got The Blues One of the better albums of Rolling Stones.

Picture Book by Simply Red
Jun 18 2026

It's got a very 80s, but at the same time jazzy sound to it.

Savane by Ali Farka Touré
Jun 19 2026

Unique mix of sounds (that reminds me of) India, blues, latin.

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Jun 20 2026

Jigsaw Puzzle / Sympathy for the Devil Hard to ignore the juggernaut here but the album itself is mostly forgettable

Kollaps by Einstürzende Neubauten
Jun 21 2026

Stück Scheiße

Rocks by Aerosmith
Jun 22 2026

Might relisten

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Jun 23 2026

I was enjoying the tender melodies sung by Neil Young on one dreary night, it was sort of moody but just about what I need at the time. Until Sedan Delivery came up and hit me like a fucking truck. Worst song ordering since Yesterday to Dizzy Miss Lizzy.

Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones
Jun 24 2026

Gimme Shelther and You Can't Always Get What You Want do incredible heavy lifting on this album by being killer opener and closers

Arrival by ABBA
Jun 25 2026

Best of ABBA. There are a few potholes here and there but when it gets you, it gets you. Hard to keep yourself from singing. That's Me, Tiger and the title track are very underrated here. Anni-Frid does not get enough credit for her vocals in Money Money Money.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jun 27 2026

The music does not deliver the expectations created by the cover. Good album but a tad bit long.

Siembra by Willie Colón & Rubén Blades
Jun 29 2026

Siembra

Horses by Patti Smith
Jun 30 2026

Horses opens with Patti Smith's version of Gloria, an instant charmer oozing with her own style of music. Then the album takes you to Redondo Beach to chill for a while and from then on it's mostly filler songs until the Land "trilogy" which is supposedly the album's magnum opus but far inferior to the aforementioned songs. Still, Horses is a unique album from a unique artist. I liked it a little less upon my second listening. Nevertheless, a must listen.

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
Jul 01 2026

Dirty Work / Only A Fool Would Say That / Fire in the Hole / Reelin' In The Years / Do It Again (Barely) A soft rock album with diverse sounds. The last few tracks were dull but all around great songs.

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Jul 02 2026

A not-so-short but sweet album.

OK Computer by Radiohead
Jul 03 2026

Peak Radiohead. Songs that are just the right amount of experimental and every experiment works. Paranoid Android is comparable to Bohemian Rhapsody. No Surprises is the most hauntingly beautiful songs I've ever heard. It's not an album without dullers but it's near perfect.

Nevermind by Nirvana
Jul 04 2026

It's a classic

Violator by Depeche Mode
Jul 07 2026

Can't go wrong with Depeche Mode and can't go any lower with an album that features Personal Jesus and Enjoy the Silence. Dangerous and Halo are my other favorites here, rest of the tracks are unforgetabble for the most part. Policy of Truth never really hit me.

Since I Left You by The Avalanches
Jul 08 2026

Frontier Psychiatrist was the peak of the album, I liked that most songs transition into each other. Generally like the sound but felt too incohesive at times.

John Prine by John Prine
Jul 09 2026

Might relisten.

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Jul 11 2026

Might relisten.

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder
Jul 13 2026

Might relisten, not among my favorites from Stevie Wonder

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Jul 14 2026

I find this overall more cohesive than There's A Riot Goin On. "Stand!" the song is just too good.

Swordfishtrombones by Tom Waits
Jul 16 2026

Just no good... His voice sounds worse in this one and the music is just regular blues that offers nothing new and somehow at the same time feels unfamiliar.

Ragged Glory by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Jul 17 2026

I like my Neil Young without Crazy Horse

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Jul 19 2026

Hanging On The Telephone / I'm Gonna Love You Too / One Way Or Another / I Know But I Don't Know / Will Anything Happen / Heart of Glass

Court And Spark by Joni Mitchell
Jul 21 2026

Might relisten, might not. Don't like Joni Mitchell

Slippery When Wet by Bon Jovi
Jul 23 2026

Makes me think that Bon Jovi can't get any better than this.

Van Halen by Van Halen
Jul 24 2026

Not a mediocre album but pretty unremarkable, sorry Van Halen

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Jul 25 2026

This album is very underappreciated just like the entireity of T.Rex. Life's A Gas / Mambo Sun / Get It On / Cosmic Danger / Girl

Mask by Bauhaus
Jul 27 2026

I had very low expectations of Bauhaus so perhaps that's why I liked it as much as I did, they just feel like the type of band I'd dislike but there's certainly something there.

Heroes by David Bowie
Jul 28 2026

Beauty and the Beast / Heroes / Sons of The Silent Age / Blackout

Jul 29 2026

The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway / The Grand Parade Of Lifeless Packaging / Counting Out Time / Carpet Crawlers

Disintegration by The Cure
Jul 30 2026

As angsty as The Cure can get, they make good music and have a captured their own sound among other bands from the 80s.

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Aug 02 2026

Could not take it seriously but some grooves but mostly headache inducing

Toys In The Attic by Aerosmith
Aug 03 2026

Alright, Sweet Emotion and Walk This Way was cool other than that doesn't sound like the Aerosmith I like.

Harvest by Neil Young
Aug 04 2026

Heart of Gold. Sounds a bit different than regular Neil Young but still carries his charms and sound.

A Wizard, A True Star by Todd Rundgren
Aug 05 2026

Have no intention of listening to Todd Rundgren again, won't relisten.

Punishing Kiss by Ute Lemper
Aug 06 2026

Her singing is downright annoying at times and perfectly soothing at others. The instrumentals are sometimes ecstatic and sometimes dreadful. Interesting album.

Liquid Swords by GZA
Aug 07 2026

Goes slightly harder than other albums that I'd consider "not my taste"

Exile In Guyville by Liz Phair
Aug 09 2026

Would have gone so hard if I was a 14 year old girl

Astral Weeks by Van Morrison
Aug 12 2026

I really like Van Morrison's chill psychedelic vibes but it gets too much sometimes. Not a lot of favorites here save for Sweet Thing.
