The Wall

Pink Floyd

2/5

I understand every bit of why this album is as big and popular as it is. Well maybe not every bit but the broad point. It's really just not for me, too much of Waters theatrics that just don't interest me. When it's good it's outstanding but those parts I can attribute more to the band and Gilmour than just Waters doing his thing.

Paul Simon

3/5

A really slow start with unmemorable songs, it started picking up for me at Armistice Day which has some great guitar work. Me and Julio is a great track and the album seems to keep that momentem for the most part to close out. There are definitely some songs to revisit but as a whole I wasn't huge on it.

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

4/5

Great album, Kraftwerk does Kraftwerky things that they know how to do so well.

Sound of Silver

LCD Soundsystem

1/5

Very of its time. Repetitive with little to no payoff, awful lyrics, just plain boring overall. Nothing really happens in the album for the majority and then when things do happen, I'm helplessly waiting for those things to be over. Maybe it doesn't hit as well as it would have 20 years later? I had no interest in them back then either though so I think it's just not for me and that's Okay.

Heaven Or Las Vegas

Cocteau Twins

4/5

Production and songs were great, definitely an album to revisit.

Beauty And The Beat

The Go-Go's

3/5

It was what I was expecting but also better than I was expecting. The album builds momentum, it was a fun weekend listen.

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

4/5

Expertly put together, everything just works so well together. Still relevant nearly 50 years later.

Dire Straits

2/5

Production was great, band was great, songs were... okay. I can see why it's on this list but the songs didn't really do it for me. Great work by them though.

Femi Kuti

3/5

There is a LOT going on in this music. I had never heard of this before today, it's obviously very well crafted but can be very overwhelming at times (most times). Someone buy the mixers/engineers a drink because despite sheer amount of things happening at any given moment it sounds crisp and you can seperate the instruments. I'm glad I listened, I probably won't be revisiting this any time soon.

The Infotainment Scan

The Fall

5/5

I loved everything about this, I listened through several times and this album will have a permanent home in my collection.

Station To Station

David Bowie

2/5

This one didn't really do much for me, I'll have to come back to it another time.

Giant Steps

The Boo Radleys

2/5

It was well done, a more talented band then I ever gave them credit for. I just wasn't a fan of the songs personally so it didn't really hit for me.

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

1/5

Not my style. Rating is purely personal, this does zero for me.

Paranoid

Black Sabbath

3/5

I enjoyed it. First half the album was fantastic, Electric Funeral is just awful and seemed to be the turning point of me not enjoying the album as much. I enjoyed the rest of the songs, they just weren't on par with the first half for me.

Physical Graffiti

Led Zeppelin

4/5

Too long.

2112

Rush

2/5

Insanely talented group of musicians, this one didn't do anything for me though. I see why it's loved but I don't think I'll be revisiting again any time soon.

Sheet Music

10cc

3/5

Fun songs, band and production were great. Probably something more for the background than to sit down and listen to.

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars

David Bowie

5/5

Great album from start to finish, not a lot to complain about here.

In Utero

Nirvana

4/5

This album has some amazing songs with some very generic Nirvana sounding songs mixed in, I liked it.

Live At The Witch Trials

The Fall

2/5

Maybe a little bit sparse for my taste.

A Girl Called Dusty

Dusty Springfield

1/5

Boring... very boring.

The Modern Lovers

3/5

Had it's ups and downs, overall a fun album and worth listening to at least once.

Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury

The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy

3/5

Really well constructed and performed. A great album to listen to once, but likely only once.

Apocalypse Dudes

Turbonegro

1/5

This is super cheesy. Punk band wants to be hair metal or hair metal wants to be punk? The good news is if you like one song you'll like the whole thing since it all sounds exactly the same. I believe they achieved what they were going for, it's crisp sounding, band is talented, my ears hate it.

In Rainbows

Radiohead

5/5

An absolute masterpiece.

Da Capo

Love

2/5

I think this album would probably have been great if you had been there in 1966. In 2026 it doesn't quite hit the same, it sounds the way it was, they were trying to figure this whole thing out. Thanks for lending a hand in figuring things out but I'll never listen this again.

L.A. Woman

The Doors

1/5

The Doors suck.

1999

Prince

2/5

It sounds like Prince took every cutting edge piece of studio technology and packaged it up into this album. Maybe you had to grow up with this music to appreciate it? The whole thing has the feel of a Fruity Loops sample song. It had a few moments but as always, I don't understand the fuss about Prince.

The Colour Of Spring

Talk Talk

4/5

Sometimes I stop and think "why are you singing like that" but it passes. Really well put together, great songs, enjoyable album.

I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight

Richard Thompson

4/5

Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde

The Pharcyde

2/5

I'm far too old for this. Well done and dumb. It's not that it's bad, I just don't like it..

Amnesiac

Radiohead

5/5

White Ladder

David Gray

1/5

This is a great album for someone who has never listened to music before. It's accessible and literally anything you listen to after will be better than it.

Liege And Lief

Fairport Convention

4/5

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music

Ray Charles

3/5

Electric Prunes

The Electric Prunes

1/5

It's not that it's bad it's just that I don't like it.

Group Sex

Circle Jerks
