The Wall by Pink Floyd
Apr 29 2026

Musicianship is excellent (as you’d expect) and a number of the songs are excellent but overall let down by Waters whole hating an education system that, frankly, he and his generation were privileged to benefit from. Quite a lot of the writing around that subject feels like a parody and feels like it was written by a 14 year old.

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Apr 30 2026

Not my cup of tea at all so not really fair for me to review. The best I can say about it is that it’s comfortably ignore-able.

Ramones by Ramones
May 01 2026

Short and sharp. High energy. Not bad.

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
May 02 2026
Green by R.E.M.
May 05 2026
Ghosteen by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
May 06 2026
Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
May 08 2026
Triangle by The Beau Brummels
May 13 2026
Butterfly by Mariah Carey
May 14 2026

Utterly anodyne. And her vocal style (singing around all the notes) never gets less irritating!

Third by Portishead
May 28 2026
Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Jun 06 2026
Blur by Blur
Jun 25 2026
Harvest by Neil Young
Jul 04 2026
Logical Progression by LTJ Bukem
Jul 17 2026

I’d give it a zero if I could. In all the history of music I pray that this is the low point!

Brothers by The Black Keys
Jul 21 2026
Songs The Lord Taught Us by The Cramps
Jul 22 2026

Genuinely not sure what to make of this. Some of it was quite interesting but ultimately none of it was enjoyable.

Jul 24 2026

This is a strange one. Didn’t get into thrash/speed metal when it started. First heard this in the late 90’s and quite enjoyed it. Not so much now. I imagine that if I listened to it more often and properly that it might go up to a 3 but ultimately not quite my taste

Jul 29 2026

I love this album. I want to give it 5 but I recognise that it’s not perfect - clearly far from perfect in the eyes of of a lot of people!😂

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Jul 30 2026

Not the sort of music I like at all I’m afraid

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Jul 31 2026

Probably my favourite Led Zeppelin album but doesn’t quite have the consistency of led zep 4.

Low by David Bowie
Aug 01 2026
Live! by Fela Kuti
Aug 02 2026
Meat Puppets II by Meat Puppets
Aug 05 2026

Pretty awful. Kind of figures that Kurt Cobain was a fan!

Arrival by ABBA
Aug 06 2026

Can’t decide if this is a 3 or a 4. Some absolute classics on here but also a fair few that there’s a reason that they’re not better known

Beautiful Freak by Eels
Aug 09 2026

This is a 3.6 really but rounding down to 3 would be unfair
