Popular Reviews

Red Dirt Girl by Emmylou Harris

Another one where I am not sure why it is included in the list, a fine album but surely one of her earlier albums would have been more appropriate? Especially if I am only realistically going to listen to one of her albums

3.5 down, very fun jamming

Feb 16 2026

Sounds very cool and I will listen whilst I’m revising but not mind blowingly good

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
May 06 2026

Did people that Snoop had beef with just have to pretend not to like this??

War by U2
May 07 2026

Really good, I guess they were in the right when protesting against Sellafield but I promise their practices are better now!

Debut by Björk
May 08 2026

She is such a unique performer, but some of the instrumentals feel a bit of that era, excited to get vespertine one of these days

Sounded a bit like Frankie goes to Hollywood in some ways

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
May 16 2026

May 20 2026
Ys by Joanna Newsom
May 21 2026

Jun 11 2026

Alright but didn’t get anything from it

You Are The Quarry by Morrissey
Jun 12 2026

“He said he wants to befriend me, which means he can’t possibly know me” At least he was self aware

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Jun 13 2026

To be honest the last two songs lose me a little bit but the rest of the album is so good that it doesn't matter at all.

Rings Around The World by Super Furry Animals
Jun 15 2026

2.5 rounded down as I just didn't get along with the mishmash of songs in the album, meaning for me it felt like it went on a bit too long

Loved getting the opportunity to listen to one of her albums in full, thank you list

Nixon by Lambchop
Jul 03 2026

Alright I guess

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Jul 04 2026

I know I don’t know a lot about music history, but for some of these albums it feels like they are on the list due to the merit of one song

The Slider by T. Rex
Jul 06 2026

3.5 down, good just not 8/10

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park
Jul 07 2026

Some of the songs felt properly busy, but enjoyed it on the whole

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Jul 09 2026

Some proper bangers in here, but does it need to be as long as it is? Also lots of the misogyny that plagues older hip hop

Jul 10 2026

Another edition of why is this album on this list???
