Hot Fuss by The Killers
Apr 06 2026

Reminds me of my childhood as this album was absolutely huge in the UK. Easy listening, my favourite track was 'All These Things That I've Done'.

Illmatic by Nas
Apr 07 2026

Really enjoyed this album, the music was so well composed and fit the style of rapping so perfectly. Never listened to Nas before but this body of work has really makes me want to explore more.

Moving Pictures by Rush
Apr 08 2026

A fun lyrical adventure. Very 80's (which makes sense) and although I think the singer is a fine vocalist, I just personally didn't enjoy their voice so my preferred sections were the more guitar heavy bits. Best song was YYZ. Inoffensive album, but I don't think I'd 'Rush' back to listen to it.

C'est Chic by CHIC
Apr 10 2026

It's a classic for a reason; fun, easy listen that makes you wanna dance.

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Apr 13 2026

Frank Zappa is an artist who so many of my favourite artists has cited as a major inspiration, so I was happy when this album came up to delve into his music. And I bloody loved it. A beautiful journey through the mostly instrumental tracks, which were so beautiful layered and textural. I could hear the direct influences to music I love so much. Definitely listen to again and inspired me to listen to more of his work.

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Apr 14 2026

Nice and pleasant, but not for me sadly. Surprised to read about this being the proto for grunge! It's so interesting how connections are everywhere.

Fisherman's Blues by The Waterboys
Apr 15 2026

It's not a bad album, it's just not for me

The Stranger by Billy Joel
Apr 16 2026

It was alright! Harmless and easy listen, probably won't return to the piano man but ya know.

Apr 17 2026

As a lifelong NIN fan I've always heard that Johnny Cash's version of 'Hurt' is better than the original. Johnny brings a beautiful haunting emotion to it that I love, but for me you canny beat the original. Anyway! Nice album, slow and steady with Johnny still providing warmth and emotion through his voice.

1984 by Van Halen
Apr 20 2026

It was better than I thought and had some great guitar bits, but it just feels like frat boy music....

Rio by Duran Duran
Apr 27 2026

A BANGER. I didn't realise how much of this album I actually knew but I loved every minute. It's so 80s and yet has aged so well.

Moon Safari by Air
May 01 2026

Album from my childhood

Reggatta De Blanc by The Police
May 06 2026

It's alright. I get why they called it white reggae.

Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield
May 07 2026

Those bells were mad tubular mannnn

69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields
May 08 2026

If it was done nowadays it would of been 67 Love Songs

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
May 12 2026

Hell yeah
