The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails
May 01 2026

Clearly an important album. Again, not my favoured style but I appreciate it for what it is. Shows the importance of listening to the whole album as the instrumental piece gives a extra dimension and meaning.

Play by Moby
May 02 2026

Catchy and pleasant if lyrically limited. 2 star

Talk Talk Talk by The Psychedelic Furs
May 06 2026

Relatively uninspiring 80s indie-punk rock. The singer isn’t the easiest to listen to. 1

I'm Your Man by Leonard Cohen
May 08 2026

I already know this is fantastic!

May 09 2026

A timeless rock classic - but it’s the first time I’ve listened to it all through from start to finish 🙃

Songs The Lord Taught Us by The Cramps
May 11 2026

Drum and guitar heavy late punk offering with appropriate screamy vocals - a piece of its time.

Bubble And Scrape by Sebadoh
May 13 2026

Not really sure what this is supposed to be - it really didn’t speak to me. A bit of an uninspiring mess.

Nick Of Time by Bonnie Raitt
May 14 2026

Fairly banal 80s soft rock with a small twang of country. Not the most inspiring but not the worst assault on my ears either.

Dirty by Sonic Youth
May 15 2026

Whimsically titled guitar and drum heavy post punk. Relatively agreeable.

Rubber Soul by Beatles
May 17 2026

One of their better ones…

Synchronicity by The Police
May 18 2026

Some classic tracks - especially Synchronicity II - but a few weird tracks knocks it off of a 5.

The Nightfly by Donald Fagen
May 20 2026

1980s take on twee easy listening swing-pop.

Sunday At The Village Vanguard by Bill Evans Trio
May 21 2026

Jazz. I don’t really like jazz. I think this is probably decent jazz but what do I know…

Beach Samba by Astrud Gilberto
May 22 2026

I’m not sure what to make of it… perhaps a paper boat.

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
May 23 2026

1970 - what a fantastic year. This is a great album befitting of the year of its (and my) birth. A post-psychedelic sashay through folk-rock themes.

May 24 2026

Hello - another I know well! Fantastic sound scapes and even as pastiche of Bryan Ferry at one point.

Haunted Dancehall by The Sabres Of Paradise
May 25 2026

I’m no particular lover of electronica but I was pleasantly diverted by this.

m b v by My Bloody Valentine
May 28 2026

I’ve decided that I will make my reviews in quatrains. Here goes: The numbing drone of indie guitars A fitting soundtrack to review your scars Singer quietly croons And understands your wounds.
