4/5

Definitely rock but girl rock so extra star. Genuinely enjoyed listening to this. Would listen again tho it was a bit too much rock for too long to do the whole album. Still enjoyed

Moon Safari

Air

4/5

Chill brother chill. Vibey funky beats. Electronic but easy with it. Could see it in an oceans 11 movie. Saved 3 songs from the album

Hail To the Thief

Radiohead

2/5

Bleh. A slog. Saved one song mainly to make listening to the album worth it.

The Gershwin Songbook

Ella Fitzgerald

4/5

Cant go wrong with my girl ella

It's Blitz!

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

4/5

Who knew would listen to the dance till your dead song today. Mostly listened to on the bike so i feel like i should give it another listen in a quieter atmosphere but some fun beats!

Nevermind

Nirvana

5/5

Ive got too many memories attached to this album not to give it 5 stars. Listening to it with dad on the way to the climbing gym, being an angsty teen with lulu when we first met, rocking out when you need something to scream. Feels like an aggressive hug.

Music From Big Pink

The Band

4/5

the weight always has a special place in my heart. Saved two other songs. Overall was find tho

Machine Gun Etiquette

The Damned

4/5

hard core rock. felt kind of repetitive but i listened to it on the plane so maybe i didn't experience the whole range of the songs well enough.

Freak Out!

The Mothers Of Invention

3/5

Funky

Darkdancer

Les Rythmes Digitales

4/5

I feel like i could have a crazy one person dance party to this. Would go hard in a club if i was drunk and willing to bop around. The reviews did not lie tho - this guy picks one line and repeats that shit till the song is over. The beat is pretty repetitive as well which makes for good dance music but perhaps not good listening music.

Ten

Pearl Jam

5/5

Darkness on the Edge of Town

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

Always a pleasure to listen to bruce boy and it was a treat to listen to one of his albums all the way through.

Gold

Ryan Adams

2/5

American Idiot

Green Day

5/5

takes me back to the good old days. so many memories associated with this album. one reviewer said 'green day makes music that encapsulates how it feels to be a teenager' and i think those are wise words

Blood, Sweat & Tears

3/5

so confusing. some of this was quite good and then some was just a flute making weird notes for like three minutes. why are like so many of these songs 12 minutes long and half of it is weird experimental jazz. perhaps they are the ones who revolutionized experimental jazz who knows. i did enjoy the song 'and when i die' though

The Marshall Mathers LP

Eminem

2/5

The Doors

5/5

classic band classic album! a bit repetitive perhaps but still one of the greats for a reason

That's The Way Of The World

Earth, Wind & Fire

4/5

Bring on the funk! A treat! Perhaps a bit too funky if possible at times but definitely worth a re listen

Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret

Soft Cell

3/5

That man in just not a good singer. Synth pop grungy music that didnt quite hit with me i was mainly waiting for it to be over. But! Did get to listen to tainted love

Bitte Orca

Dirty Projectors

4/5

Odd but ultimately i enjoyed it! The beat felt a bit strange and there were definitely some weird stuff going but i feel like they pulled it off for me in the end. Saved one song

A Girl Called Dusty

Dusty Springfield

3/5

Gonna be honest didnt actually finish this one (yet) the first couple of songs were good but my god there comes a time that they all just start to sound the same. Confused also why this album is on this list when i think its mainly covers

2112

Rush

3/5

ehh prog rock. not personally my fave but i could see theoretically why ppl get down to this

Kimono My House

Sparks

4/5

Stankonia

OutKast

5/5

Cant go wrong with OutKast. A pleasure to listen to one of their albums all the way through, should try it again honestly

Superunknown

Soundgarden

5/5

Really liked this actually. It had a grungy rock kind of crooning feel. Saved two songs. Would probably listen to again.

Innervisions

Stevie Wonder

5/5

I love Stevie Wonder. I don't even need to listen to the album to know this gets a 5 from me. I liked the other album I've listened of his a bit better, but this one still rocked. Saved a song, but would go and listen to the album in general again.

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

4/5

Was surprised about how much I liked this. They had some good songs with some good lyrics. Unfort they did say the f slur a lot in one song but ehh it did go with the message lol. Eminem has said a lot worse and i hate that guy a lot more. I definitely recognized a couple of songs off the album that I've heard before which is always cool. I think I saved three songs. I'll knock one star just cause saying slurs isn't the best and also some of it felt a bit repetitive.

Wild Wood

Paul Weller

4/5

eh it was fine! good instrumentals I think I saved like two songs. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed listening to it, but a bit confused why it was on this list, it felt pretty basic to me.

Funeral

Arcade Fire

3/5

i was hyped to listen to this cause ive heard great things about arcade fire but honestly. did not live up to it. maybe ill try listening again but it just sounded like background music - easily ignored.

In Rainbows

Radiohead

4/5

honestly hated my last radiohead album so was NOT looking forward to this esp to get two radiohead albums in a row (why are there so many radiohead albums. surely we could've picked another influential artist instead of another radiohead album). but. i will admit i did not hate this one. it was pretty good actually i would maybe listen to it again if i was really starved for content.

In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

3/5

im becoming increasingly aware that prog rock is just not my jam. but overall a pretty good album. I liked the first song on the track a lot.

Two Dancers

Wild Beasts

1/5

I did not like that. The singers voice was high pitched and annoying. The instrumentals were alright but the singer drowned out any enjoyment and he sang. All. The. Time.

Elephant Mountain

The Youngbloods

4/5

I liked this one. it was a fun mix of rock and banjos and blues. i liked it best when that guy wasn't singing but what can you do. would probably relisten

Beggars Banquet

The Rolling Stones

4/5

I've never listened to a complete rolling stones album, or to be honest very much of any rolling stones music. I thought they were a rock band but this was very much a country, banjo, bluesy kind of vibe. It felt like something I'd hear blasting from the speakers as a kid. A hootin time.

All Directions

The Temptations

5/5

Wow what a joy to listen to! Funky blues with a good beat from start to finish. I think i saved most of the songs from this quick listen album. Would definitely listen again. Would definitely listen to more of this bands albums!

The Bends

Radiohead

4/5

I swear to god radioheads complete discography must be in this list. However, this album did actually slap, I will give them that. I would relisten. I don't think I actually saved that many songs mainly cause I was just vibing with the whole thing. Still, I can only hope I've seen my last radiohead album, it pisses me off every time i see i have one

Penthouse And Pavement

Heaven 17

3/5

didn't finish :/ at a certain point it truly sounded the same which was meh.

Hot Buttered Soul

Isaac Hayes

4/5

Straight soulful jazz vibes. Saved a banger of a song but hot and buttered is how my soul felt afterwards

White Light

Gene Clark

3/5

inoffensive country album. nothing wrong but nothing particularly special.

At Newport 1960

Muddy Waters

4/5

you just know this would've ate live. a hootin and hollerin good time.

The Velvet Underground & Nico

The Velvet Underground

4/5

What fun! Very different and unique but in a fun way - i like the velvet underground hope to listen to more of their albums

BEYONCÉ

Beyoncé

3/5

It's beyonce what more can you say. I do think I have to say that I enjoyed her other, more recent albums more, but it's possible I just missed the window of nostalgia on this particular one. It was good cause it's beyonce but I wasn't like jazzed to listen to it. Sorry Beyonce.

The Lexicon Of Love

ABC

3/5

devastatingly rated the "a grand don't come for free" with what was supposed to be this review. THIS ONE is the new wave 80s. I guess I'll just switch them. "a grand dont come for free sound get a 1 or perhaps a 2 - white british rapper just...talking a bit off beat. not good.

A Grand Don't Come For Free

The Streets

3/5

new wave 80s. not my vibe but certainly someones out there

Fishscale

Ghostface Killah

5/5

this was fun. classic 90s rap. i like classic 90s rap. thank you website for showing me that i like classic 90s rap. think i saved 3 songs

Sound of Silver

LCD Soundsystem

4/5

LCD Soundsystem! One of those albums I'm excited to listen to before the first track plays. It was a good listen too! I think I saved 3 songs. Honestly, I want to go and listen to more of their albums now. Was in phenom? No, but still a good time.

Bitches Brew

Miles Davis

3/5

Experimental jazz indeed. It certainly inspired emotions, mainly fear and anticipation for it to be over. Still a fun listen for its uniqueness if nothing else

Bat Out Of Hell

Meat Loaf

4/5

Rock on theater bro

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

5/5

What a fucking ride. Loved this! Definitely want to give it another listen, preferably somewhere i can dance my little heart out

Survivor

Destiny's Child

4/5

Hey its destinys child. You just cant be mad about listening to the club bops from the 2010s on a random tuesday

The Scream

Siouxsie And The Banshees

4/5

Definitely rock but girl rock so extra star. Genuinely enjoyed listening to this. Would listen again tho it was a bit too much rock for too long to do the whole album. Still enjoyed

Hotel California

Eagles

4/5

eh acceptable. hotel california is a classic for a reason. you can see why dads love the eagles. but perhaps i am not that dad just yet. give me 20 years and maybe it'll be my time.

The ArchAndroid

Janelle Monáe

5/5

looooooooooove janelle monae. what a fun time. great gym music.
