Queen - Queen II
100

Queen's most underrated album, and one of my personal favorites. This album creates a very wonderful experience, and there's not a single dull or forgettable track, with the possible exception of the intro. I love how each song flows into the next. Some Day One Day has one of my favorite guitar solos of all time. Father To Son is a masterpiece that deserves to be discussed with Queen's other all-time greats. Overall, this album is incredible and desperately needs more attention. ... read more

Kanye West - Graduation
80

First Kanye album, and I really enjoyed it. The standouts to me are I Wonder, Everything I Am, and Homecoming. Idk what happened with Drunk and Hot Girls, but thankfully that's an outlier. If you're wanting to get into rap, I would recommend this album, as it's pretty accessible.

Top three:
I Wonder: 10/10
Everything I Am: 10/10
Homecoming: 10/10

Worst:
Drunk and Hot Girls: 5/10

The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead
100

This album is perfect. An incredible display of jangle pop and post-punk. Morrissey's vocals are breathtaking and I adore the guitar. Essentially every song makes me feel nostalgic for an era I didn't grow up in. There Is a Light That Never Goes Out is one of my favorite songs of all time, but every song is peak. Everyone needs to listen to this album.

Top three:
1. There Is a Light That Never Goes Out: 10/10
2. Bigmouth Strikes Again: 10/10
3. I Know It's Over: ... read more

Queen - A Day at the Races
80

Solid album. Good use of the piano. Somebody To Love is the best and a must listen. Not much to say overall. Check this one out if you like piano rock.

Top three:
1. Somebody To Love: 10/10
2. Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy: 10/10
3. Long Away: 10/10

Worst:
Drowse: 6/10

U2 - The Unforgettable Fire
90

Quite an experimental album. A lot is thrown at the wall, and most of it sticks. You can really tell it's the predecessor to The Joshua Tree, as it feels a bit like an earlier version at times. Bad and Pride (In The Name Of Love) are standouts, while 4th of July is just a decent instrumental. Give this one a listen when you get a chance.

Top three:
1. Bad: 10/10
2. Pride (In The Name Of Love): 10/10
3. The Unforgettable Fire: 10/10

Worst:
4th Of July: 7/10

Oasis - (What's the Story) Morning Glory?
70

There's some good songs here. Almost every song does drag unfortunately, which made the experience a bit worse than the overall tracklist. Wonderwall is very important to me personally, but I would say it's only my 4th favorite song of the album. Champagne Supernova clears and is the only song I would give a 10. I wouldn't recommend this to everyone, but definitely check it out if it interests you.

Top three:
1. Champagne Supernova: 10/10
2. Some Might Say: 9/10
3. Morning ... read more

Journey - Escape
100

Way too low of a rating for this rock masterpiece. Steve Perry's voice just ascends the music to great heights. Don't Stop Believin' is my favorite, as it's a radio classic. The chorus to Open Arms is top tier. I loved everything about this album. It's a must listen.

Top three:
1. Don't Stop Believin': 10/10
2. Open Arms: 10/10
3. Who's Crying Now: 10/10

Worst:
Dead or Alive: 8/10

Heart - Dog & Butterfly
80

Underrated album. I liked Dog & Butterfly the best. Chill listen. I'd recommend.

Top three:
1. Dog & Butterfly: 10/10
2. Straight On: 10/10
3. Lighter Touch: 10/10

Worst:
Hijinx: 6/10

U2 - Easter Lily EP
80

First impression of this is pretty good. I'm glad music like this is still made in 2026. However, what the fuck happened with COEXIST? It sounds unfinished! Thankfully the rest is peak. I really liked Resurrection Song, Song For Hal, and In A Life. Overall I'd give the EP a listen, but stop before COEXIST.

Queen - A Night at the Opera
90

A must listen for any rock enthusiast. A Night At The Opera is rightfully Queen's most famous album. It has freaking Bohemian Rhapsody, which to this day hasn't been topped. A couple of songs aren't great like Sweet Lady and Good Company, but then there's the beautiful '39, the cheerful You're My Best Friend, and I personally love I'm In Love With My Car. Love Of My Life is incredible piano rock. Overall, if you've never listened to a Queen album, this ... read more

Billie Eilish - HIT ME HARD AND SOFT
80

First Billie Eilish album, and it was a pleasant experience. The middle of the album is fantastic. Birds of a Feather, Wildflower, and The Greatest are all peak. Unfortunately, the last few songs aren't anything special. Overall great album.

Top three:
1. Birds of a Feather: 10/10
2. Wildflower: 10/10
3. The Greatest: 10/10

Worst:
Bittersuite: 5/10

Kate Bush - Hounds of Love
100

Hounds Of Love doesn't have the greatest song selection of all time, but what it has is an experience unlike any other. This album manages to deliver a cinematic vibe throughout essentially every song. The second half especially, while not every song is my cup of tea, tells a larger than life story that makes even the weakest songs engaging. I don't want it to seem like I'm down on the songs, because they're definitely great. Running Up That Hill is one of my favorite songs ... read more

Fleetwood Mac - Fleetwood Mac
90

Very happy with this listen. Fleetwood Mac's magic is certainly present in songs such as Warm Ways and Say You Love Me. Rhiannon is excellent, and Landslide is a song I can never listen to without getting emotional. Unfortunately the ending of the album isn't the greatest so that holds it back from getting a perfect rating, but this is still an excellent album that everyone should listen to.

Top three:
1. Landslide: 10/10
2. Rhiannon: 10/10
3. Warm Ways: 10/10

Worst:
Crystal: 7/10

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
100

This album is absolutely perfect. It is an ethereal experience that everyone should listen to. My favorite song is Shine On You Crazy Diamond Pts 1-5, while my least favorite is Welcome to the Machine, which is still a 10/10. I knew this album had a reputation, but I was completely surprised by how miraculously perfect it is. I'm not a big Pink Floyd guy and I was able to thoroughly enjoy the 44 minute experience. I remember the first time I listened to SOYCD and was taken aback by its ... read more

Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
90

Definitely one of the all time greats. Dreams is debatably the greatest song of all time, and The Chain features the best ending to a song that I have ever heard. There's not a single dud here, although I don't love Oh Daddy that much. Please give this album a listen, as I can assure you won't regret it.

Top three:
1. Dreams: 10/10
2. The Chain: 10/10
3. You Make Loving Fun: 10/10

Worst:
Oh Daddy

The Beatles - Abbey Road
80

A bit overrated, but a really great experience. A lot of these songs aren't great on their own, but listening to them back to back made for a satisfying experience. And of course there are some classics in here like Come Together, Something, and Here Comes The Sun, but the one that really surprised me was You Never Give Me Your Money. Give this album a listen if you haven't already.

Top three:
1. You Never Give Me Your Money: 10/10
2. Here Comes The Sun: 10/10
3. Something: ... read more

Michael Jackson - Thriller
100

Near flawless album. Not my personal favorite, but the best I've heard. 7/9 songs are 10/10. An insanely distinct album with every song offering a uniquely excellent experience. Thriller into Beat It into Billie Jean will never be dethroned as the most iconic three song stretch of all time.

Top three:
1. Billie Jean: 10/10
2. Beat It: 10/10
3. Thriller: 10/10

Worst:
The Lady in My Life: 8/10

Bruce Springsteen - Born in the U.S.A.
70

Very solid rock album. Unfortunately a lot of the songs blend in, but they aren't bad. My favorite is Dancing In the Dark. A bit lower rated than the user score, but I don't strongly disagree with it.

Top three:
1. Dancing In the Dark: 10/10
2. No Surrender: 10/10
3. Born in the U.S.A.: 10/10

Worst:
Downbound Train: 6/10

U2 - The Joshua Tree
100

As of writing this review, this is my favorite album of all time. Three of my ten favorite songs come from this album. The Joshua Tree is a stunning achievement. It manages to perfectly give a "larger than life" feeling throughout the entire experience. Where The Streets Have No Name is not only an amazing opener, but my favorite song of all time. The bombastic drums and beautiful singing from Bono gives me a euphoric feeling that no other song replicates. I Still Haven't Found ... read more

Michael Jackson - Bad
90

Very excellent album by the goat. Smooth Criminal is my favorite MJ song. Every song is good, although I'm not crazy about Liberian Girl. While Thriller may be the stronger and overall more distinct album, this is an all-time excellent album.

Top three:
1. Smooth Criminal: 10/10
2. Man in the Mirror: 10/10
3. The Way You Make Me Feel: 10/10

Worst:
Liberian Girl: 6/10
