Popular Reviews

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie

The components of modern rock music is here, I can hear this. Counterpoint: That don't impressa me much.

When my children (various dogs) ask me what the 80s sounds like (in the forms of barks and growls) I will tell them this is what it sounded like, my sons.

Shake Your Money Maker by The Black Crowes

I recognise that this is an objectively fun album, but you underestimate my capacity for hating fun.

Ramones by Ramones
Jun 13 2026

A big year for people who love to hear the same pretty bangin' song 12 times.

Bad by Michael Jackson
Jun 15 2026
The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Jun 17 2026

*guy who's only listened to MF Doom* Getting real MF Doom vibes from this

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
Jun 17 2026

The components of modern rock music is here, I can hear this. Counterpoint: That don't impressa me much.

The Dreaming by Kate Bush
Jun 18 2026

The musical equivalent of hitting the DJ button on the keyboard and mashing the keys in a vaguely rhythmic fashion. Love you, Kate, but this is madness.

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jun 19 2026

Sorry bob, my mum played you in your entirety too often to bend these white boy ears.

Jun 20 2026

Opening an album by comparing yourself to Jesus is the sort of shit I expected from Jarvis, but it's very good to hear it directly. This album feels a lot like what I imagine reading the weird guy at school's diary would feel like, but worse.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Jun 21 2026

Get on the Floor my new MVP.

Planet Rock: The Album by Afrika Bambaataa
Jun 23 2026

They sure do like that high pitched 'tetetete' electro sound. I, too, like the high pitched 'tetetete' electro sound. Well played, Afrika Bambaataa.

Tapestry by Carole King
Jun 24 2026

The first album where Sarah started dancing, so automatic 5 stars.

Purple Rain by Prince
Jun 25 2026

Already in the rotation. Sarah's first encounter with 'Let's Go Crazy' was from the signing elephant in Sing 2. This makes me feel regular.

Odelay by Beck
Jun 26 2026

I like when Beck brings in a noise that sounds like a broken power tool. No notes

Shaka Zulu by Ladysmith Black Mambazo
Jun 27 2026

This was not for me. I did not bust out movers hitherto unforeseen.

Jun 28 2026

Primo tunes for the glorpiest ears. Introducing words was a mistake for Fatboy Slim's musical direction.

Trio by Dolly Parton
Jun 30 2026

Dolly got that sound I can't be ignorin'

The Poet by Bobby Womack
Jul 01 2026

Booby Womack? More like Bobby WoSLAPS. Idk. I really liked this one.

Treasure by Cocteau Twins
Jul 02 2026

The Cocteau Twins to Crystal Castles set of dominoes is just two dominoes, but I sure do like those dominoes.

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Jul 03 2026

First track about poop water? Instant classic.

Repeater by Fugazi
Jul 05 2026

Solid 90s punk.

Jul 06 2026

When my children (various dogs) ask me what the 80s sounds like (in the forms of barks and growls) I will tell them this is what it sounded like, my sons.

Smash by The Offspring
Jul 07 2026

My secret is that Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and Crazy Taxi informed 99% of my taste in music. I listened to this album a lot at 12. It's an all-timer. 4 certified bangers.

Rattus Norvegicus by The Stranglers
Jul 08 2026

Maybe granpa was right, and the 70s was a cracking era for music. Peaches, etc.

Shake Your Money Maker by The Black Crowes
Jul 09 2026

I recognise that this is an objectively fun album, but you underestimate my capacity for hating fun.

Steve McQueen by Prefab Sprout
Jul 10 2026

Not for me, why all the wounds from before 1999, huh? Tell me that, big pharma.

Achtung Baby by U2
Jul 11 2026

Bono has to be stopped in the past before his future can be written like this

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Jul 12 2026

An all timer, always vote for Talking Heads.

Idlewild by Everything But The Girl
Jul 13 2026

An eepy sleepy album I hated.

Garbage by Garbage
Jul 15 2026

Deliciously grungy, every bone in my body has to resist comparing Garbage to Hole.

Face to Face by The Kinks
Jul 16 2026

Not a Beatles enjoyed at the best of times. Bob Dylan MEETING The Beatles doesn't work for me.

Histoire De Melody Nelson by Serge Gainsbourg
Jul 17 2026

imagine my surprise, vibing to Serge, when I read my friends reviews and realised it's a paedo album. Ah, c'est Francoise.

Play by Moby
Jul 20 2026

Call me Brecht, because I be alienating the effect of Moby's weird Natalie Portman comments from the art. Sound of the 00s. EXCELLENT album.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Jul 21 2026

Every song I was like 'Oh that's from a movie / Family Guy' and that's all I have to say about that. Swangin'

Fuzzy by Grant Lee Buffalo
Jul 22 2026

Entirely fine.

Tres Hombres by ZZ Top
Jul 23 2026

I liked the idea of this more than the reality of the same fu ky beats over and over

Jul 28 2026

You can't convince me to listen to this so giving it a 3 not to.spike the curve. Pls no prog. Big up my man Kanye, hope he hasn't gotten up to shit

S&M by Metallica
Jul 30 2026

Icky horrible hate.

Devotional Songs by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Jul 31 2026

*guy who's only ever watched the Darjeeling limited* Getting real Darjeeling limited vibes from this.

Midnight Ride by Paul Revere & The Raiders
Aug 03 2026

Yes. Quite.

At Mister Kelly's by Sarah Vaughan
Aug 04 2026

A vibe I appreciate, but not one I'd come back to.
