Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
May 27 2026

A really good mix of chill vibes and beats that make me groove. Lots of gentle swaying and very easy listening. Definitely listening to it again

Play by Moby
May 28 2026

This is a jumble of noise a lot of the time. I tried, but its not for me.

Urban Hymns by The Verve
May 29 2026

Two iconic songs, but not ones I would purposefully listen too. Rest of the album is all a similar sound, difficult to differentiate the songs and I don't like the tone of the main singer. Not for me

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
May 30 2026

Appreciated some of the guitar riffs, but not much else. Not for me

Sea Change by Beck
May 31 2026

A bit too depressing for me

First Band On The Moon by The Cardigans
Jun 01 2026

Lovefool is iconic and still a great listen amongst this album that otherwise falls a little flat for me.

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths
Jun 02 2026

Not to my taste. Album felt a bit boring and droney vocals made me hope for the end of the album

Shleep by Robert Wyatt
Jun 03 2026

Awful

Psychocandy by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Jun 05 2026

Some interesting songs, but a bit too filled with noise

...And Justice For All by Metallica
Jun 06 2026

This surprised me, I didn’t think Metallica was for me but I enjoyed this. Lyrically not doing much for me, but the drums and guitars are undeniably fantastic

American Idiot by Green Day
Jun 07 2026

Loved this album as teenager and still love it now. A no skip album for me and gets me singing along with ease

Coles Corner by Richard Hawley
Jun 08 2026

Not for me, nothing bad to say about it but just a bit underwhelming

Debut by Björk
Jun 09 2026

This is not for me. Felt like 90s experimental 90s jazz, but not in a good way

Whatever by Aimee Mann
Jun 11 2026

Very easy listening, though nothing really standing out for me

Darklands by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Jun 12 2026

This was fine, nothing really grabbed me or stuck with me

Jun 13 2026

Some iconic songs that I can’t help but sing along too. Rest of the album was easy listening but not something I’d revisit

Led Zeppelin II by Led Zeppelin
Jun 16 2026

This was fine. Nothing really standing out for me or feeling that impactful

Bitte Orca by Dirty Projectors
Jun 18 2026

Not for me

Violator by Depeche Mode
Jun 19 2026

This was fine. Recognised some songs but nothing blew me away

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Jun 20 2026

Enjoyed this, can definitely hear where she has impacted future artists

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jun 21 2026

Nice easy listening

Bubble And Scrape by Sebadoh
Jun 22 2026

This started off with a couple of alright songs and then descended into a discordant collection of noise and mumbles lyrics.

That's The Way Of The World by Earth, Wind & Fire
Jun 23 2026

This was great. A good mix of funky and groove, really good listen. A couple of tracks I didn’t vibe with but overall good

Movies by Holger Czukay
Jun 24 2026

Awful

Pieces Of The Sky by Emmylou Harris
Jun 25 2026

I enjoyed this, very easy listening country with Dolly P vibes.

The Soft Bulletin by The Flaming Lips
Jun 26 2026

Like some of the melodies, but the singers voice isn't for me

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Jun 27 2026

Some good songs but didn’t vibe with the vocals

Let's Stay Together by Al Green
Jun 30 2026

Really enjoyed this, very easy listening and great voice

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Jul 01 2026

Pretty decent swamp rock

Lust For Life by Iggy Pop
Jul 03 2026

Enjoyed this more than I thought I would knowing nothing about Iggy Pop music going into it. Love the Bowie influence on it and feels gritty in places. Not all songs are ones I would listen to, but overall a good album

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Jul 05 2026

I can understand how this was genre defining when it was released but listening back I don’t get it.

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Jul 07 2026

A really chill album, great for background listening and gentle jazz.

Ys by Joanna Newsom
Jul 13 2026
Live! by Fela Kuti
Jul 14 2026

This was incredible, vibrant and freeing.

21 by Adele
Jul 17 2026

Incredible album. Adele is an absolute powerhouse

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Jul 18 2026

Not for me, sounded a bit whiney

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
Jul 20 2026

I wanted to like this more, but just didn't connect with it

The Bends by Radiohead
Jul 21 2026

This was fine, but became a bit samey

Shalimar by Rahul Dev Burman
Jul 24 2026

This was fun! Not something I would have listened too previously but really enjoyed it

Heroes by David Bowie
Jul 25 2026

I didn't enjoy this as much as I thought I would. Some good songs and classic Bowie vibes but also some really odd choices in some of the songs

Tarkus by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Jul 26 2026

Not for me

Risque by CHIC
Jul 27 2026

Enjoyed this a lot

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
Jul 29 2026

I don't get the hype behind The White Stripes. Never have and thought I'd try this an be open minded but it just wasn't for me

The White Room by The KLF
Jul 30 2026

This was pretty fun, vibey dance club hits

Under Construction by Missy Elliott
Jul 31 2026

For when this was released, it was great and Missy Elliott really impacted hip hop. Not sure it stands out so much in 2026 but still enjoyable

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
Aug 02 2026

I don't get the hype, and the lyrics and themes are certainly a choice.

Aug 03 2026

This was pretty good, not my personal taste in music but album went by smoothly

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan
Aug 04 2026

Lyrically and musically I enjoyed this, but I struggle with Bob Dylans tone
