Hotel California

Eagles

3/5

It was OK. Interlude was one of the best moments of the album. 57/100

We Are Family

Sister Sledge

4/5

Can’t go wrong with Nile Rodgers and this era of disco. Exactly my vibe. We are family is probably the worst song and that’s saying something

Station To Station

David Bowie

4/5

Ok I know it’s occult or wtv but I happened to have listened to this a few days before and musically it’s super expansive and immersive while being still easily accessible and catchy. That being said I won’t be listening to this again 😭

Neon Bible

Arcade Fire

5/5

No cars go is one of my favourite songs ever

Ananda Shankar

1/5

Someone could probably make something fire sampling this record but I don’t see any situation I’d ever go back and listen to it myself

A Love Supreme

John Coltrane

5/5

I don’t know what more you could ask of a jazz album. Makes me wanna be a better drummer

Fever Ray

2/5

I could smell the body odour through the earbuds

Machine Gun Etiquette

The Damned

4/5

Extremely solid punk album, could see myself returning to it and finding more things to enjoy about it on every listen

Swordfishtrombones

Tom Waits

3/5

Definitely an acquired taste, not sure if it’s for me. It flip flops between some beautiful little tunes to some jarring ideas that don’t feel fully fleshed out IMO.

Wish You Were Here

Pink Floyd

5/5

If anyone gives this anything other than a 5 they better have a valid reason

Headquarters

The Monkees

3/5

Can definitely see the influence this has had on jangle pop and modern indie music. I like how weird they got at times. Solid stuff EDIT: I AM EASILY INFLUENCED AND I THINK I DIDNT LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM CLOSELY ENOUGH TO REALIZE ITS REALLY NOTHING THAT SPECIAL

Run-D.M.C.

2/5

I’m not sure I can take any more of the back and forth vocals Ya I’m sure this album had to exist for hip hop to be where it is today but damn it does not hold up . It’s good for like 1 song, I did not need the same thing 9 times

Disintegration

The Cure

5/5

Perfect album. The Cure goated

Protection

Massive Attack

4/5

Love this. best moments were the instrumentals for me. Some of the guest vocalists fell a little flat for me but the music behind vocals on those songs remained fantastic

Vespertine

Björk

3/5

It’s not up to you , Harm of will, Unison are good songs. No doubt she has an amazing voice especially when belting. The instrumentals are great too. Her delivery does come off as a biiit pretentious and overly artsy sounding at times. Just not sure I’m at a very Bjork time of my life. Perhaps down the line I’ll revisit this and it’ll hit me even more.

Rust Never Sleeps

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

4/5

Beer music

Halcyon Digest

Deerhunter

3/5

A lot of the songs feel like they build up with no real payoff, and the music can kind of blend into the background occasionally, especially with the vocals often being very buried in the mix. I did listen to this a couple of times and it did start to grow on me with the second listen though. The second half of the LP definitely has a lot more life to it

Dire Straits

5/5

Hell yeah

(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Oasis

5/5

Chaaaaampagn supanovrrrrr in the skaiaiiii

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Elton John

4/5

There’s some all time goat tracks on here but also some more forgettable ones. The highs are extremely high tho

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Beatles

4/5

I didn’t have time to listen to this yesterday but I had listened to it a couple months ago and i guess this feels like a good score for it

A Nod Is As Good As A Wink To A Blind Horse

Faces

2/5

Booooooooring as heck. Cool that Rod Stewart was in this band but damn there’s gotta be a million albums from the same era that sound exactly like this.

Live 1966 (The Royal Albert Hall Concert)

Bob Dylan

4/5

Definitely gotta be in the mood for this but when it hits it hits

Nebraska

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

This might be the best « dude and his guitar » album ever made

White Blood Cells

The White Stripes

4/5

Rio

Duran Duran

2/5

This is good 80s music but i honestly only made it 3/4 of the way through and got so bored i had to listen to something else. A lot of these songs follow a similar structure and it gets repetitive and old quite fast

Californication

Red Hot Chili Peppers

4/5

Ding dang dong dong ding dang dong dong ding dang

Come Find Yourself

Fun Lovin' Criminals

1/5

Dookie

Live Through This

Hole

3/5

This was good but she’s kind of gross

Who Killed...... The Zutons?

The Zutons

2/5

Wish there was 2.5 rating option cause this is just the definition of mid

Are You Experienced

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

Even though much of this album sounds pretty same-y, there is no denying the talent. Quite pleasing to my ears as an album.

Blood, Sweat & Tears

3/5

Quite cheesy at times but also had some great peaks and the drumming was rly good

Sunshine Hit Me

The Bees

2/5

Background music

MTV Unplugged In New York

Nirvana

4/5

Blood On The Tracks

Bob Dylan

5/5

Yeah good

I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You

Aretha Franklin

4/5

Some generational stuff on here

Hot Shots II

The Beta Band

2/5

I will never be listening to this again

Savane

Ali Farka Touré

3/5

I appreciate this quite a bit. Musically it’s great. Just giving it a 3 cause I don’t see myself bumpin this on the regular.

Selling England By The Pound

Genesis

5/5

Gooooood album

Aladdin Sane

David Bowie

4/5

Not my favourite Bowie album but an extremely solid listen nonetheless. He definitely needed albums like this to perfect his style later on

Play

Moby

3/5

I like Moby but not sure I like him for more than like 5 songs in a row. I do feel like the tv show montage vibe of his music loses its novelty after a little bit. All things considered this is still a solid album

Talvin Singh

2/5

I listened to this while making hummus and it was kind of a vibe, but then it continued for another hour. A bit too much Indian weirdo stuff for me

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

Derek & The Dominos

3/5

Layla is really good but as an album not doing a whole lot for me

Like A Prayer

Madonna

4/5

Fun pop album what can I say

Femi Kuti

3/5

I appreciate it but only for a couple songs. It drags on for a casual listen

Head Hunters

Herbie Hancock

5/5

Real Life

Magazine

3/5

Circus punk

Crime Of The Century

Supertramp

5/5

I freakin love this album. I feel like it’s the blueprint of what the album experience should be. Perfect pacing and doesn’t overstay its welcome. 1000000/10

Dear Science

TV On The Radio

4/5

Very good thank you

4/5

Great showcase of her awesome voice. Would definitely go back to this

Close To You

Carpenters

4/5

Timeless classic Wonderful voice from ms carpenter and creative drumming

Treasure

Cocteau Twins

3/5

I really wanted to like this but I honestly got a little irritated by it and wanted it to be over. Disappointed cause I like some of the Cocteau songs

Five Leaves Left

Nick Drake

4/5

Yeah this wasn’t bad

Thriller

Michael Jackson

4/5

Brutal Youth

Elvis Costello

2/5

Brutal listen

Ace of Spades

Motörhead

2/5

Can’t give this higher than a 2 after hearing jailbait

Tres Hombres

ZZ Top

2/5

There was nothing wrong with this album but there also wasn’t anything super right with it
