Frank by Amy Winehouse
Feb 14 2026
Blunderbuss by Jack White
Mar 03 2026

I liked this more than I expected. Still pretty mediocre.

Fuzzy Logic by Super Furry Animals
Mar 04 2026

Boring

Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt
Mar 16 2026

This is something I would like to like but it’s pretty awful.

Viva Hate by Morrissey
Mar 19 2026

This is a hard one to rate. There are such great heights and such great lows on this album, the three first songs for example are almost perfect in a way but on the other hand the second song is also pretty bad. There are two enormous hits on this album, but some duds. It’s an emotional rollercoaster, it’s not a bad album, but to think of what it could have been… but I guess that’s just Morrisey, after all.

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Mar 24 2026

This has to be one of the most boring Britpop Albums ever.

Want Two by Rufus Wainwright
Mar 25 2026

I don’t like his voice and his singing style.

Debut by Björk
Mar 30 2026

I like this more than I want to.

Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
Apr 08 2026
Fetch The Bolt Cutters by Fiona Apple
Apr 09 2026

It’s not bad, but eventually it’s too annoying.

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Apr 14 2026

It’s not his best work but it’s a solid three stars plus one extra star for „O Children“.

Roots by Sepultura
Apr 20 2026

There are fillers and nobody needs a 13 minutes jam at the end but this album is a banger.

Synchronicity by The Police
Apr 21 2026

It's not as bad as expected, but I will probably never listen to this again.

Junkyard by The Birthday Party
Apr 23 2026

Another Album that I would like to like because I like the later works of Nick Cave a lot. But it just does not work for me, starting with that awful cover image. The music has relevance, I guess, but it's going nowhere.

Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel
Apr 24 2026

Two points for the nostalgia. It was and always will be pretty unbearable, with a few exceptions.

Street Life by The Crusaders
Apr 26 2026

Not my cup of tea

I Should Coco by Supergrass
May 01 2026

It’s not bad but it’s one of so many indie albums

Savane by Ali Farka Touré
May 06 2026

It’s not my cup of tes

Thriller by Michael Jackson
May 12 2026
Triangle by The Beau Brummels
May 18 2026

From the cover over the band name to the music, this is not good.

PJ Harvey is another case of "Want to like it more than I do" for me. I like her but the music ultimately is a bit boring to me. It's not bad, but it's also nothing that I would select conciously, I guess.

Wild Wood by Paul Weller
May 22 2026

Pretty enjoyable!

Be by Common
May 23 2026

I get it but it’s not for me

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
May 31 2026
1999 by Prince
Jun 02 2026

I respect him

Let's Get Killed by David Holmes
Jun 03 2026

One of the worst music genres ever.

Diamond Life by Sade
Jun 05 2026

Not that bad. I don’t know why you would listen to a whole album of this kind of music.

Leftism by Leftfield
Jun 10 2026

Another album that could have been made by Jeremy Usbourne in his room in his shared flat in Croydon.

Bad by Michael Jackson
Jun 12 2026
Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Jun 18 2026

I like it. I like this band.

Shleep by Robert Wyatt
Jun 21 2026
Idlewild by Everything But The Girl
Jun 26 2026
Low by David Bowie

Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band

Trash

21 by Adele
Jul 03 2026

Not my cup of tea

Harvest by Neil Young
Jul 04 2026
Planet Rock: The Album by Afrika Bambaataa
Jul 06 2026

It’s cool, but it does not feel like an album.

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder
Jul 07 2026

I guess this is great if you like that kind of music.

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
Jul 08 2026

I know it’s cool and influential as hell but it sounds so outdated.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jul 09 2026

I like the guy but album-wise it’s hit or miss. Or maybe I am more into songs of his than his albums.

Rocks by Aerosmith
Jul 10 2026

Boring rock music. But not even bad.

Chris by Christine and the Queens
Jul 12 2026

Not for me

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Jul 14 2026
The Rising by Bruce Springsteen
Jul 19 2026

I adore the Boss but I don’t get why this is on the list. Maybe his later work is just not for me.

Slayed? by Slade
Jul 24 2026

I could not get past the first song.

Dookie by Green Day
Aug 01 2026
British Steel by Judas Priest
Aug 06 2026

I guess it’s fine if you like that style of metal

Eagles by Eagles
Aug 10 2026

Another day, another Dad Rock album

Being There by Wilco
Aug 12 2026

It’s good in a way that I can put this on when I don’t know what else to play. Like The War on Drugs or maybe even Placebo.

Make Yourself by Incubus
Aug 13 2026

This is really hard to judge. To me it’s music for people that go to huge rock festivals and still think they have a distinguished musical taste because they go and see Incubus at 4 in the afternoon because they think the writing is so clever and the singer can sing so well. But it’s run off the mill rock for the masses. Ok it was easy to judge.
