Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
Feb 03 2026

Only familiar with "Take Me Out" prior to listening. Can't say this is something I'd come back to personally, but I do appreciate the tone of the album.

Mothership Connection by Parliament
Feb 04 2026

Only knew Give Up The Funk before listening. Can't say I'm the funkiest in the bunch, but I can appreciate a sound I dont hear often. 3.5/5 - cuz as much as I'd like to, I dont give a funk

The Specials by The Specials
Feb 05 2026

Not my forte. Its music that exists.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Feb 06 2026

I am bias because I already loved this album, and I do so even more now.

Solid Air by John Martyn
Feb 09 2026

Solid album, I could see myself coming back to this.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Feb 12 2026

Can't help but jive.

Ocean Rain by Echo And The Bunnymen
Feb 13 2026

Not bad, but not for me.

Kid A by Radiohead
Feb 14 2026

Not bad! Can't say this one was for me.

Duck Rock by Malcolm McLaren
Feb 16 2026

First record I couldn't make it through. I really tried, but it was actively killing my mood, and eardrums.

Vulnicura by Björk
Feb 18 2026

Breathy, techno euro-pop ain't for me.

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Feb 19 2026

Ehhhh. Not bad, not for me.

She's So Unusual by Cyndi Lauper
Feb 20 2026

Banger album. This girls been having fun all her life.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Feb 21 2026

Already a fan, ya didn't have to convince me.

The Colour Of Spring by Talk Talk
Feb 25 2026

2/5. Not bad at all, but not my vibe. I did enjoy the naming scheme though.

Rip It Up by Orange Juice
Feb 26 2026

Bowie-esque? Can't say it really worked for me though.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Feb 27 2026

Solid record. Wild Horses really makes it for me.

War by U2
Feb 28 2026

Its alright. Never been a big U2 fan, and this wasn't it for me. The messaging does come through strong though!

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Mar 03 2026

Fun record! I enjoyed the diversity and various features.

Goo by Sonic Youth
Mar 04 2026

Album got weaker as it went on. Dirty Boots was a strong start though. My friend Goo would have broke my ears if it was 30 seconds longer.

Low by David Bowie
Mar 05 2026

Not a bad album by any means, just very instrumental heavy. I think I just missed Bowies voice.

Illmatic by Nas
Mar 06 2026

Messa like.

Be by Common
Mar 07 2026

Solid record. Honestly, I preferred his other music that autoplayed once this album ended.

Ray Of Light by Madonna
Mar 08 2026

Solid enough. Never been a big Madonna fan.

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs by Derek & The Dominos
Mar 09 2026

Already enjoyed Layla and Thorntree in the Garden, it was a pleasure to listen to the entire record as originally intended.

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
Mar 10 2026

Pretty solid! All Right was a bit long for my taste, but thats just preference.

Boston by Boston
Mar 11 2026

Solid, but not my favorite Boston record.
