Feb 06 2026
3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Mar 10 2026
The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
Mar 11 2026

Not a fun listen the whole way through but its undoubtedly iconic

Miriam Makeba by Miriam Makeba
Mar 18 2026

Stunning voice, really enjoyed it

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Mar 20 2026

Stunning yet devastating. Loved it

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Mar 24 2026

Mezzanine is better. Enjoyed some of it but other times i was a little bored of it

Brothers by The Black Keys
Mar 30 2026
Dare! by The Human League
Apr 03 2026
Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Apr 08 2026
The Libertines by The Libertines
Apr 09 2026

Points for nostalgia but its not aged well

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Apr 11 2026

Flying out the gates with some crackers then it gradually disappears up its own bum bum and i was bored by the end

Young Americans by David Bowie
Apr 21 2026

Bookended by some classics and its an ok listen throughout but not my favourite Bowie era.

Smash by The Offspring
Apr 24 2026

This was such a gateway album for me and it still holds up

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Apr 25 2026

What an amazing performance from Janis Joplin on this. Some great songs, piece of my heart being a particular highlight, but others passed me by. Glad I got to listen to this though.

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Apr 26 2026

Didnt expect this to hit so hard with the nostalgia but by the time it got to weird fishes I could almost taste a richmond menthol. A great album but a point off because im not arsed about every song on it.

Ten by Pearl Jam
Apr 30 2026

Liked this way more than expected, even with Eddie Vedder’s vocals sounding like he’s eating a burger throughout

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
May 02 2026

A 2 for a few of the bangers but actually most of the album is crap and fuck Anthony Paedis

m b v by My Bloody Valentine
May 03 2026

I didnt even know this album existed. More accessible than other stuff i’ve listened to but i found it less interesting. Not a bad album though

May 04 2026

A proper sentimental album for me, it was the soundtrack to a lot of car journeys with my parents when i was little. Listening with grown up ears i do still love a lot of it but Love is reason was way too poppy for me and, and you tell me was a bit naff.

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar
May 12 2026

One of my favourite hip hop albums from the last 20 years. Amazing

Tellin’ Stories by The Charlatans
May 13 2026

This was ok, pretty standard 90s indie rock. Nothing offensive but nothing riveting either

Grace by Jeff Buckley
May 28 2026
Debut by Björk
Jun 30 2026
