Bug by Dinosaur Jr.
Jan 22 2026

I liked Freak Scene and Pond Song, but the rest of the album I found either just okay or annoying, with Don't being physically painful to listen to.

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
Jan 26 2026

It feels like I'm going insane at a dentists office.

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Jan 28 2026

The fact that this came out the same year as The Doors is crazy, what a fuckin' year

War by U2
Feb 04 2026

I think U2 has much better albums than this one, but it's not bad.

Vivid by Living Colour
Feb 05 2026

10 years before Refused. This album fucks. No notes.

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Feb 09 2026

Not my favorite Cure album, kind of boring comparatively

The White Album by Beatles
Feb 10 2026

Compared to Revolver or Rubber Soul, it really doesn't justify its length. There's one of two great songs, but it's mostly just songs.

Bandwagonesque by Teenage Fanclub
Feb 12 2026

I have a soft spot for Scottish salt-rock, but this is a little uneven

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Mar 06 2026

I love this album, it's perfect front to back.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Mar 10 2026

Good, great even but a little samey

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears by The Mamas & The Papas
Mar 17 2026

I really I could go 3.5 here, but I feel like I should round up instead of down because of the impact of the album.

Blur by Blur
Mar 18 2026

First half is a 4, but it gets worse the longer it goes on.

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Mar 24 2026

It's good, I like it.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Mar 25 2026

Great album, no skips and some underrated highs

Sister by Sonic Youth
Mar 26 2026
Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear
Mar 27 2026

I'm just not a huge reggae fan

The Clash by The Clash
Mar 31 2026

I think this album gets too much credit, but it is very good. I wish I could do half ratings

Shleep by Robert Wyatt
Apr 02 2026
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Apr 07 2026

I love Tom Petty, but this isn't the best. Few all timers and then mostly just meh.

Apr 08 2026

Another instance where I know all the best songs already and the ones I don't know are just fine

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Apr 15 2026
Apr 23 2026

Listening to the score without the movie is a little weird. Like I get the impact because I can tie the songs back to the scenes, but if you've never seen The Virgin Suicides I don't know how much you'd get out of this.

Horses by Patti Smith
Apr 27 2026
Apr 28 2026

Praise You is the only good song on the whole album sure, but it's a great song.

Rio by Duran Duran
May 04 2026

Every song is about a minute too long, the back half of the album is mostly bad and the front half is mostly great. Big mixed feelings here. I would only listen to half of this album again.

Crime Of The Century by Supertramp
May 28 2026

Ever wondered "Hey what if Queen sounded like shit?", wonder no further.
