Why is it always the singing that sounds bad. Maybe it's just the thing of the old music I have never really paid attention to before but these albums really seem to have the same issue. Mid music, bad singing.

Broken English by Marianne Faithfull
Nov 27 2025

Heavily disliked the voice, don't have much knowledge of the musical era though so my opinion might be heavily flawed in that sense. It should get better on the way with this musical journey I have just begun. All in all, not for me without the context.

Five years started with a bang and while I found the growing intensity of the singing/yelling quite annoying, I still gave it a a chance for the future. Starman was obviously a classic nostalgic song that I fully enjoyed. Album going forward started falling off for me and without Starman in the mix I was ready to give this a 2, but low 3 it shall be.

Nov 29 2025

Definetly a funky album! Was nice background listen and personally wouldn't listen to it on it's own, but if I heard it playing it somewhere I wouldn't mind at all. The world indeed is a ghetto.

Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
Dec 01 2025

I felt zoned out and bored throughout the album. The music wasn't bad but it jsut wasn't for me or the current mood that made it just ok background music.

Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Dec 20 2025

I already wasted 1h19min of my life, not wasting another second rating.

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
Jan 20 2026

Interesting. Since I don't know how to start rating them yet. 4 stars.

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
Jan 21 2026

It's okayish, nothing really stood out with anything special, but as kind of background noise I did not hate listening to it. However, listened to the first bonus track and almost fell asleep.

Private Dancer by Tina Turner
Jan 22 2026

First half was stronger and got definetly carried by nostalgia of the songs What's Love Got to Do with It and Private Dancer. Second half the energy seemed to die a bit and I started spacing out of focus.

Closer by Joy Division
Jan 23 2026

The album started strong, the drum loop in the first track was funky and I liked it. As the album progressed I liked the songs less and less, I liked the music itself at times, but the vocals and mixing seemed so random throughout the songs and annoying at times. From the promising start I really wanted to like this, but ultimately the singing seems to end this album into the territory of nope and I was happy it ended.

Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Jan 24 2026

A pleasant listen, was afraid of hating the album but it was solid throughout.

The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monáe
Jan 25 2026

While it was refreshing to get some new music, it was not for me and the album was too long.

Picture Book by Simply Red
Jan 26 2026

Review partly affected by a bad listen of the album but wasn't my favourite, 3rd song was a bit of a banger, but the rest not that exciting for me

Green by R.E.M.
Jan 27 2026

It's aite. Worked well as a background album while working, nothing really stood out per se but just good vibes

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Jan 28 2026

Samba De Uma Nota So brought me some hard The Sims vibes and it was funny as I was imagining myself decorating a house in the game. Overall decent listen, not great, not bad,

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Jan 29 2026

Amazin' At first I instantly just gave this 5 stars for the album is and will be amazing. I decided to reduce it to 4 though. Highlights were summer and lightning and mr. blue sky

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Jan 30 2026

It is a classic album with big hits. I do have to appreciate the album for what it is and was during the time. But outside of the known mega hits the songs were mostly really boring and overall the album is not for my musical tastes. Good try mr. Jackson.

The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy
Feb 02 2026

Started strong, fell off a bit after the first two songs but the pace picked back up at Firestarter. Overall an enjoyable listen.

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Feb 03 2026

Album was a perfect length and felt whole, not my kind of music but I can appreciate the album for what it is

Made In Japan by Deep Purple
Feb 04 2026

The band was clearly jamming and enjoying itself but as a live album I found it a bit dull listening to a 10minute drum solo or random wailing or "spacey sounds". Maybe it would have been better as a live dvd to see the performance as well. Smoke on the water is obviously the classic and most likely the first song a lot of the generation has learnt as the first guitar song (as have I).

Songs From A Room by Leonard Cohen
Feb 05 2026

I wasn't going to give this a good rating to begin with but the flute at the very end of the last song sealed it for me. No thank you.

The Clash by The Clash
Feb 06 2026

It's fine to listen to, nothing special, but still pleasant. Not sure why but London's Burning was probably the song that I enjoyed the most

Feb 07 2026

I thought I "liked" Bob Dylan, seems I might have been wrong and only heard things I liked before but I do kinda dislike the singing and the harmonica in the songs.

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
Feb 08 2026

I have never liked the singing in Motörhead. That being said there were some good moments musically in the album but overall it felt quite simple and dull sadly. Some songs like The Road Crew was just looping the same thing endlessly with some solos built on top of it.

Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield
Feb 09 2026

I have to say, I was smiling through a lot of this album. It was interesting, fun and had many layers. The start was a little bit on the more boring side, but the album picks up nicely. Needless to say I like weird music, but this was perfection.

Be by Common
Feb 10 2026

I don't like rap music. Not that I absolutely hated this but it does not deserve a good score in my books. Disliked the lyrics from a big part of the album, even though I rarely even focus on them on the first listen. Also I do side with the math guy.

Soul Mining by The The
Feb 11 2026

From the album cover I already felt like I am going to hate it, but after the first song I am willing to let my initial thoughts go and it actually is pretty ok! I enjoyed the album as a whole, I did not dislike any of the songs. Music is pleasant and singing is solid. All in all a good album for sure.

Melodrama by Lorde
Feb 13 2026

I got taken back to like 2015-2018 time of my life when I used to listen to very similar electronic chill music while gaming and I quite enjoyed this album in that sense. Low 4, since I think my 3's so far have been worse, but "nostalgia" carried this.

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Feb 14 2026

The album cover looks VEEERY familiar but still the music was not..? I found the music generally quite boring and zoned out of it quite a bit. Not my favourite.

Here's Little Richard by Little Richard
Feb 15 2026

Hot damn! I had no idea what I was up to listening, album started with a classic. Listening through the album I was starting to get overload of rock 'n roll though and I was waiting for the end. Nothing necessarily wrong with the music but the music style in itself was in this case too repetitive and was ready for it to end.

Mama's Gun by Erykah Badu
Feb 16 2026

I am third song in. I think album is already veeeery repetitive and I dislike it. Why is the album so long.. After finishing, opinion did not change. Too similar, too long.

3 Feet High and Rising by De La Soul
Feb 17 2026

Another album cover that made me shudder in anticipation for awfulness. But this was less terrible than expected, which could just be because the last albums have not been great. Anyway it was decent, not the kind of album I would go around listening to again, but didn't hate it.

Maggot Brain by Funkadelic
Feb 18 2026

Well this album had certainly many styles and in that sense didn't get boring. Can't say I liked a lot of the songs but then the ones I did were interesting. Solid 3

In Utero by Nirvana
Feb 19 2026

This album is quite hard to rate. At parts it has absolute classics that I don't really have anything against, other songs in the album just give me a headache with screeching noises and awful singing/yelling. Guess it can still get a 3

Feb 20 2026

It's long, it's confusing with its 43 songs and musically not super interesting to me.

Cloud Nine by The Temptations
Feb 21 2026

It was a fine listen, but already forgot about how it sounded the next day writing this review. Not memorable for me.

Fromohio by fIREHOSE
Feb 22 2026

I was wondering why I didn't listen to the album whole and it was forever left in a limbo, but now I remember. It is just that boring.

We're Only In It For The Money by The Mothers Of Invention
Feb 23 2026

5 minutes into the album I was ready give up, but the fourth song actually had some sounds that were at least listenable. If nothing else, at least I learned the word discorporate. While I like weird music I think this album was mostly not about music, but random sounds and lyrics. What the hell was the last song and was the intention of the first half of it to cause physical pain..?

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Feb 24 2026

Was nice chill experience. Towards the end I was starting to feel the slowness of the album bothering me, not that I expected the music to be any different, but it is just not my music style and my brain was already craving more action. Overall nothing bad to say, but not my style.

The Specials by The Specials
Feb 25 2026

I found the vocals a bit bad at times and then at some parts they were just fine. I think it was my only problem with the album, music itself was generally just nice to listen to and vibe along. Not bad/5

Penthouse And Pavement by Heaven 17
Feb 26 2026

Going to say it was not the most exciting music in my life, but still perfectly listenable.

She's So Unusual by Cyndi Lauper
Feb 27 2026

Pretty good, some classics. Can't complain and the nostalgia of some car trips while hearing these songs hit me good.

Venus Luxure No. 1 Baby by Girls Against Boys
Mar 01 2026

The album had its (brief) moments, but mostly it was just background noise ..heh.. for me.

Daydream Nation by Sonic Youth
Mar 02 2026

Wasn't sure about the start of the album, but The Sprawl hooked me in. During Eric's Trip I felt it took a dip down again and by Hey Joni the album had lost the charm I thought it might have had. The last A) and B) songs had some really fun playing of the instruments and I am torn on what to give the album overall. I think it sits right in between a high 3 and low 4, but I think the last song cemented this album into the 3's.

Mar 03 2026

I do like the Queen and appreciate the musical and vocal talent in the band, however while this album was very queeny, there was something I seemed to miss at times. Certainly not a bad album but not quite the top tier.

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Mar 04 2026

Singing on the album is beautiful and the music itself is very hearty. It feels like the album to listen to when the world seems like too much and you need to root yourself down a little bit. I am imagining myself listening to it while staring in a fire in a fireplace and being relaxed.

Cypress Hill by Cypress Hill
Mar 05 2026

Sound very Cypress Hill, oh wait it is. The fact that I haven't heard this album but it was the same music I have heard before makes me think that the albums are just the same music.

Mar 06 2026

Started strong, but the energy didn't stay. Unfortunately the first track was too good for the album and the drop was very much noticeable. The only other song apart from Take on Me that had any energy to keep me interested was The Sun Always Shines on T.V. Wasn't BAD but just uninteresting after the banger of a start.

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Mar 07 2026

Unfortunately I listened to this album in two parts with like 2 weeks of pause in between, so I had kinda forgotten parts of the first half I had listened. Overall I like the sound of Jimi Hendrix and the style of music there was on this album. I could see myself listening to it again whole at some point.

Something/Anything? by Todd Rundgren
Mar 08 2026

After the first half of this long album I was not expecting anything anymore and was 100% just background noise to get it done. Then suddenly there was one positive surprise in the form of Little Red Lights that did light the mood up a little bit. Sadly it was the only lift up I felt during the album. I didn't hate it but felt that it lacked variety to justify the length.

Bad Company by Bad Company
Mar 09 2026

Bad Company is a good song. The rest of the album is pretty mediocre though, nothing too exciting. Maybe they just wanted to have the song with the album name with the band name pop and everything else to be mid.

2112 by Rush
Mar 10 2026

I liked the clean vocals in the first song, the more rocky vocals later on didn't strike me that hard and the music became quite average sounding rock. If they kept the style from the first song, maybe I had liked it more.

Arise by Sepultura
Mar 11 2026

Oh I forgot to rate this after listening to it. Well, nothing much to say here. It was definetly an album I have ever listened. I think it was somewhere around the third song I started looking around if anything was going to change but the album sounded the same all the way through, not my cup of tea.

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Mar 12 2026

Kanye West.. Amazin'. Anyway, without thinking about the person. I don't like this style of music. I just don't understand it. However there was some better bits where I was actually kinda enjoying the music so I can't just dump this into the 1* tier. So 2 it shall be.

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Mar 14 2026

I did know what this was until Son of a Preacher Man started playing. The vocals on the album were pretty good and the music itself was decent to listen to.

Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves
Mar 15 2026

I might have been having a stroke but this was actually pretty damn good for what it is. It worked perfectly as a background music and I really enjoyed the album way more than I initially imagined. The last song however drops the album just in the zone of 3, almost was willing to give it a 4 but I think the energy dropped off for the end.

90 by 808 State
Mar 16 2026

This album was a weird one. Was not expecting it on the list. Anyway some of the sounds were good, most were quite repetitive, it kinda took me back to One Must Fall and I did go listen to the soundtrack of it after listening to this.

Tidal by Fiona Apple
Mar 17 2026
69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields
Mar 18 2026

I am on song 40 while writing this. I just... Don't understand why this is a thing, there have been some actual good songs but holy hell are some of these (like Papa Was a Rodeo) fucking hideous. Ok I have finished the album now. Could have been a 2 or 3 if it was 1/3 of the length and didn't focus on the 69 songs gimmick where most of them are pure garbage. It's just way too long and drawn out, why was this ever picked for this list I can not imagine, but from now on keep it far away from me.

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Mar 19 2026

A very pleasant listen, a lot of instrumental madness. Will most likely have to return to this album to listen to it again and try to discover more of it.

McCartney by Paul McCartney
Mar 20 2026

Pretty fun listen, haven't listened to Paul McCartney so it was all new experience. Nothing outstanding but definetly not bad either.

Siembra by Willie Colón & Rubén Blades
Mar 21 2026

First impressions. This is EXACTLY the music that plays in a spanish themed restaurant and I would not be able to distinguish what the difference to a generic spanish sounding music would be. I don't dislike it but I don't have enough knowledge of music of this type to be able to separate it from generic "spanish sounding music". I don't hate it though.

NEU! 75 by Neu!
Mar 22 2026

I really liked the instrumentals of this album, but as soon as the singing hit it was fucking awful. Wanted to give it a 4 but the brief moment where singing was present does not deserve it.

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
Mar 24 2026

Holy harmonica. Was listening to this while cooking and even the joy in that was reduced. I wonder how many more Bob Dylan albums I have to go through. Sad thing is, they all sound the same to me, nothing changes. Man and harmonica.

The Stone Roses by The Stone Roses
Mar 25 2026

A pleasant listen, not sure if I would go listen to it again, but didn't mind it as background music. Nothing really stood out as memorable so will most likely forget about the album come tomorrow.

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley
Mar 26 2026

Listened during a hectic day. Worked in the background but did not manage to pull me from my focus.

Make Yourself by Incubus
Mar 27 2026

I could have sworn I have seen the album cover somewhere before. I didn't recognize any of the songs though, so maybe not. I liked how the album contains a lot of genres and the "golden" age of nu metal really shows in some songs in this album. The song that stood out for me was Pardon Me. Don't feel like giving it a generic 3 since I think it was better, but it is a low 4.

Foo Fighters by Foo Fighters
Mar 28 2026

I don't think I have ever heard this album before. Not the biggest fan of Foo Fighters, I don't mind them but it goes into the "passable radio music" category. This album was very average even in that standard. I don't know if the album meant a lot when it came out but listening to it now wasn't anything special to me.

All Hail the Queen by Queen Latifah
Mar 29 2026

It isn't my music style but the album felt very repetitive in the music side of things. Can't tell what the case with lyrics was since I wasn't focused on them.

Mar 30 2026

Usually I haven't enjoyed the live albums here and especially of artists that I do not know or have no touch base with. This however was more interesting than the previous ones and I enjoyed the audience engagement in this, Music was pretty decent as well.

Mar 31 2026

Fried ice cream is not a reality for me. Maybe I just don't like funk, but the songs just seemed to keep going endlessly, the instrumental play was nice at parts but also very repetitive in the other parts.

Lady In Satin by Billie Holiday
Apr 01 2026

Couldn't wait for it to end. Just not my style music at all.

Play by Moby
Apr 02 2026

There were some really good tracks in the beginning, Porcelain and Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad? to name a few. Towards tehe mid-end part of the album I felt the album slowed down a bit and I ended up liking it a lot less. Was about to drop the rating to 3 because of that after the strong start, but the last song was a beautiful movie like track and it bumped it back to 4 for me.

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69) by Ministry
Apr 03 2026

Is... Du Hast just a copy of Just One Fix..? That's the only thing I could focus in the song. Jesus Built My Hotrod was a good song, overall I did like the album as a fresh metal entry in this list since they are quite scarce.

Moon Safari by Air
Apr 04 2026

Very chill electronical music and nice to listen to. Didn't have too much to elevate it to the next level but a pleasant listen regardless.

Is This It by The Strokes
Apr 05 2026

It was allright, had some "hits" I had heard before but nothing stood out too much.

Tres Hombres by ZZ Top
Apr 07 2026

The music is fine, would I listen to it on my own in a playlist - no. Would I be happy hearing this music in a bar while downing a pint, hell yeah.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Apr 08 2026

Amy Winehouse. A name I have heard before but don't know the story behind. There were some songs I recognized. What can I say about the album though. It sounded "old". I am not the fan of that style music but this wasn't very offensive in that sense at all.

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Apr 09 2026

Not the biggest fan of rock and roll. To me it sounds pretty much the one and same. Surely there are differences but to me the instrumentation and singing always sound very sameish. Mid.

Sheet Music by 10cc
Apr 10 2026

I don't exactly know why but I really liked this album, it's variety, singing, music, everything.

Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz
Apr 11 2026

Most elevatory elevator music I have ever heard in a row. Music itself isn't bad, but I'd rather ride an elevator for a minute or two than 39 minutes. Certainly did not help that the last two songs were repeats.

Led Zeppelin II by Led Zeppelin
Apr 12 2026

Led Zeppeling might be a classic for many, but for me I feel none of it. All I hear is terrible vocals delivered by shrieking. To be fair some of the music is catchy and some of the riffs are good, but it does not stand out as anything amazing to me.

Apr 13 2026

Poking around in my ears with the god damn harmonica. I already was feeling quite low with this album and this just hurt me personally. It's probably not my genre, but I don't think the vocals or instrumentation hooked me for any amount of time.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Apr 14 2026

The album felt very generic and things weren't standing out in any way. It felt somehow watered down. I am not a Rolling Stones knower and don't know if this represents them in their fullest but can't say I am impressed with this listen.

Apr 15 2026

Why is it always the singing that sounds bad. Maybe it's just the thing of the old music I have never really paid attention to before but these albums really seem to have the same issue. Mid music, bad singing.

...Baby One More Time by Britney Spears
Apr 16 2026

At first I was afraid that the songs were too good to deserve a low rating, thankfully there were a lot of filler songs after the beginning that I found boring and could reduce my overall rating to 3. I can see why the songs that are known are so well respected but I would personally not listen to this album again.

Who's Next by The Who
Apr 17 2026

I had not heard this album as whole, but most of the songs individually. It's very good listen as an album as well and have no issues with it at all.

Brothers by The Black Keys
Apr 18 2026

Beer might be talking but the music is very nice to listen to, the singing is great. All in all solid and didn't mind the over an hour length.

Live At Leeds by The Who
Apr 19 2026

Live album, live album score. Maybe the gig was the biggest shit back in the day, but in 2026 I am not feeling it. Music ok tho.

Traffic by Traffic
Apr 20 2026

I am starting to be lazy rating these. Solid mid tier midness.

Bright Flight by Silver Jews
Apr 23 2026

One song in I already want to quit. The album cover shows exactly how dull this music has been so far.
