Popular Reviews

Jack Takes the Floor by Ramblin' Jack Elliott

Bro sure was rambling. Got a chuckle out of me with the bedbug one. Was a whimsical listen.

Lazer Guided Melodies by Spiritualized

Background music pro max But I respect the spacey ambient album. I know them from Ladies and Gentlemen we're floating in space. It has more psychedelic rock elements here than the other album. It was interesting enough.

The Stone Roses by The Stone Roses
May 06 2026

Solid album. Generic 80s brit indie rock sound. Complex enough arrangement, and somewhat happy vibes.

Live At Leeds by The Who
May 07 2026

they have enough albums in here, not going to bother with a live album.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
May 08 2026

Nice vocals and guitar.

A Hard Day's Night by Beatles
May 12 2026

quite pop-y. kinda fun. You can get the iconic "beatles" style here. nothing really stands out or anything. But I can see why this is in the list. So a 4, normally a 3. Also TIL, there are A LOT of beatles albums in this list.

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
May 13 2026

Reggae classic. Social commentary with happy background

The Real Thing by Faith No More
May 14 2026

was surprised to find war pigs cover in there. interesting listen, was a mix of genres.

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
May 18 2026

Classic soul. Great album.

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
May 19 2026

didn't know this band. reminds me of MGMT and the 2000s inde rock/pop. some songs are banger.

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
May 20 2026

This is an interesting band. I didn't like a single song from them enough to add to my "liked songs" but the album as a whole was a great vibe.

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
May 22 2026

great album. iconic. Though, some songs just fade into the background. What's going on is a classic!

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears
May 25 2026

retro wave vibes. I didn't realize I already knew some of these songs as classic "80s" songs/samples.

Tapestry by Carole King
May 26 2026

breezy oldtimer album. simple but effective.

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
May 27 2026

I don't know. I generally have mixed feelings about this band. But

Now I Got Worry by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
May 29 2026

Don't know. There was some nice singing segments but was a little too chaotic for most part

Jun 02 2026

Sounds like U2. Pop rock. Had fun listening. Works great as background because I didn't realise sometimes where one song ended and the next began.

Wild Gift by X
Jun 03 2026

Not great. Not terrible.

Daydream Nation by Sonic Youth
Jun 05 2026

So much noise. I've heard about this band but never paid attention. Glad I got it recommended.

Jun 08 2026

songs kinda sound the same, and the album sounds like eccentric beatles. nostalgia album about rural nostalgia. didn't mind it, probably won't listen again. was interesting enough.

Kid A by Radiohead
Jun 09 2026

Are they the most underground popular band? I like the ambient layering in this album. But as with noisy ambient songs in general, I don't think I can listen to 1 hour of this. Solid album, definitely a 4 because of its significance. I also don't think there should be 5 albums of Radiohead in this list.

Slippery When Wet by Bon Jovi
Jun 11 2026

People complain about how cliche it is, but cliches are cliches for a reason. This album is a mood. Makes sense find it on this list.

Jack Takes the Floor by Ramblin' Jack Elliott
Jun 12 2026

Bro sure was rambling. Got a chuckle out of me with the bedbug one. Was a whimsical listen.

Axis: Bold As Love by Jimi Hendrix
Jun 16 2026

groovy, got to give the album that. feels like a "concept" album with the complexity, and parts of it felt too much. enjoyed parts of it.

Basket of Light by Pentangle
Jun 17 2026

medieval bard core glad I came across this album the kind of exploration I expected from this list

Is This It by The Strokes
Jun 18 2026

very fitting of the time. I like some of their other albums more though

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Jun 23 2026

TIL white soul is a genre. Beautiful vocals. But except for that one song, most songs feel "derived"

Jun 25 2026

Good find. I've only come across Brian Eno in ambient scenes. Was surprised to find a rock album from him. Some songs good, some meh.

Justified by Justin Timberlake
Jun 26 2026

corny af but, I have to say - some songs had good background.

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths
Jun 29 2026

typical Smiths album - nothing really stood out.

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Jun 30 2026

some songs great, some rambly. probably needs a more focused listen to appreciate the lyrics.

Jul 01 2026

iconic nu-metal. But god does it get exhausting after like 40mins

Ogden's Nut Gone Flake by Small Faces
Jul 13 2026

never heard of them before. surprisingly good. But the 2nd half was a chore.

Jul 14 2026

great album. loved it. but I feel it it needs another listen. I am giving it an honorary 5.

Roxy Music by Roxy Music
Jul 16 2026

Not the Roxy music I know (example, Avalon). More experimental? B- for the effort ig

The Boatman's Call by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Jul 17 2026

I love - Into My Arms. And I generally like the broody vibe of this era. But I never noticed how some of these songs sound quasi Christian until now.

Blunderbuss by Jack White
Jul 20 2026

I like white stripes more. This was meh, and somewhat weird. "Freedom at 21" - proper divorce-core. what was that lyrics XD

The Stranger by Billy Joel
Jul 21 2026

I like the story telling

Highly Evolved by The Vines
Jul 22 2026

generic british garage rock of 00s

Red Headed Stranger by Willie Nelson
Jul 23 2026

RDR vibes I didn't pay much attention to the lyrics in some songs, but country is not my jam. Seems like an important album though.

m b v by My Bloody Valentine
Jul 24 2026

almost features in a white noise for focus playlist I like shoegaze / post-rock kind of distortions in general, and I know m b v, never knew this album, and not sure if 3 of their albums deserve to be here. So I'll hold off from a higher rating for the album I like more.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Jul 27 2026

Couple of good songs. Great voice. Don't feel strongly about this one.

Reggatta De Blanc by The Police
Jul 28 2026

The way the album started I was thinking how is this reggae. Was an easy listen. Some good, some meh.

Kenya by Machito
Jul 29 2026

Afro-Latin Jazz bring it on! Something wildly different from the albums I've gotten so far. Quite enjoyed some sections of it.

Lazer Guided Melodies by Spiritualized
Jul 30 2026

Background music pro max But I respect the spacey ambient album. I know them from Ladies and Gentlemen we're floating in space. It has more psychedelic rock elements here than the other album. It was interesting enough.

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Aug 03 2026

Band on the Run was a vibe, rest were meh.

Aug 04 2026

surprised by the diversity. was introduced to "supermassive black hole" through FIFA games, still a banger.

Rings Around The World by Super Furry Animals
Aug 05 2026

low 3, outside of some moments it was meh. Juxtapozed with U was solid.

Aug 06 2026

Never knew OutKast. Great pull. Decadent album. took this as homework and did it over multiple listens / days. I wish it was a bit tighter. While it was a great experience, I probably won't add it to my rotation.

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues
Aug 11 2026

dope album. good to know this list includes albums from outside Refreshing change from the tons of brit rock I've gotten so far.
