Here's Little Richard by Little Richard
Apr 02 2026

Hard to unhear all the cliches even though I'm sure he invented them. Reminds me how much of this era of music is truly just fad and hit chasing. Hard to call it art but LR is electric.

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Apr 03 2026

Fantastic, of course. I was obsessed with this 25 years ago. Amazing how much difference a decade makes between Little Richard and this.

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears by The Mamas & The Papas
Apr 05 2026

This album looks exactly how it sounds. You had four incredibly talented voices with exactly zero vibes. The highs are high but generally it's too corny to enjoy.

Doolittle by Pixies
Apr 06 2026

Perfect album

Mothership Connection by Parliament
Apr 07 2026

Fuck yeah. My albums to this point have been good but somewhat down the middle for "stuff music journalists like" This is one of the ultimate loose tight albums. The band is so tight they can just be loose and let it hang.

American Pie by Don McLean
Apr 08 2026

Diet Coke Jim Croce.

Playing With Fire by Spacemen 3
Apr 09 2026

Totally fine. I'm sure it influenced a lot of artists in the 90s

Opus Dei by Laibach
Apr 13 2026

Awesome. Really reminded me of Andrew WK of all people.

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
Apr 14 2026

Pretty sweet, can't imagine I'll go back but it's a good reminder of how good country can be despite current trends

Document by R.E.M.
Apr 18 2026

Great album. King of birds is a definitional filler track but otherwise it rocks.

Only By The Night by Kings of Leon
Apr 19 2026

This is music for chain smoking nurses to put on when they're pregaming a Disturbed show with their cop husbands. Completely uninspired musically and vocally cloying and phony sounding. These riffs have been written 1000 times by 1000 better bands who decided to throw them out because they were tired before they even became a song.
