1962: The Year In Music

1962 – the first Bond film, “Dr. No”, was released. The Cuban Missile Crisis shocked the world. Scientists announced the discovery of anti-matter. And the music scene kept chugging along. Same rules as always – I’ll be looking at the popular and highest-rated songs / albums from each year, before giving my final thoughts forContinue reading “1962: The Year In Music”

1960: The Year In Music

It’s been a while since I’ve done a music-related series on this blog, so I thought I’d go all-in with a focus on music history – I’ll look at the most popular / highest-rated albums and singles from each year since 1960, giving my opinions on each as well as the year as a whole.Continue reading “1960: The Year In Music”

Muse Albums – Overrated / Underrated

Muse have some of the most passionate fans in all of rock music, and each one has an opinion that they would fight for until their dying breath. So I thought it would be fun to offend all of them in one fell swoop! I love this band dearly, but even I have to admitContinue reading “Muse Albums – Overrated / Underrated”

Top 50 Radiohead Songs

Before I get into this list, I want to make one thing very clear – I’m not a Radiohead superfan, and I’m sure I’ve listened to them less than even an average fan. That being said, I still love their work and ceaseless ingenuity. Since I love so many of their songs, I thought I’dContinue reading “Top 50 Radiohead Songs”

Every LCD Soundsystem Song Ranked

LCD Soundsystem have been one of my favourite bands for a long time, and after seeing them live last year my love has only grown. They haven’t made many songs, but I’ll be ranking them all nonetheless. A couple of disclaimers – I haven’t included some deep cuts and B-sides, and this is highly subjective.Continue reading “Every LCD Soundsystem Song Ranked”

Beatles Albums – Overrated / Underrated

I thought I’d try a new format on my blog – looking through every entry of a certain topic, deciding whether it’s overrated or underrated (or properly rated) by the general public and the fandom. Who better to start with than the mighty Beatles – I’ve listened to their entire discography countless times, so I’mContinue reading “Beatles Albums – Overrated / Underrated”

Bowie Albums Ranked by Lyrics

A few weeks ago, I picked my favourite lyric on every Bowie song. You can find that list here. But that got me thinking – how would I rank the albums based on their lyrical quality? Just to clarify, this is purely looking at the lyrics across the board, and has nothing to do withContinue reading “Bowie Albums Ranked by Lyrics”

My Favourite Lyric On Every Bowie Song

As a songwriter, I’m always fascinated by the lyrical landscapes painted by my favourite artists. I believe the greatest lyricist in music history, the man capable of taking the listener on a captivating journey almost every time without fail, to be none other than David Bowie. Since this isn’t like my usual rankings, I’ll justContinue reading “My Favourite Lyric On Every Bowie Song”

My Top 20 Favourite Albums Of All Time

I’ve talked about my favourite TV shows, films and videogames, so the last hobby to cover would be music. It’s time to highlight some of the best albums in music history! Some quick rules – I’m only including one album per artist (I’ll give a runner-up to each just for fun, though) and I’m notContinue reading “My Top 20 Favourite Albums Of All Time”

Every Gorillaz Album Ranked

I’ve done quite a few lists ranking the tracks on Gorillaz albums, but I’ve forgotten to rank the albums themselves! This is obviously all just my opinion, so try to ignore my bad taste and poor life choices. I haven’t included side albums like “D-Sides” or “The Fall”, partly because they’re not main entries butContinue reading “Every Gorillaz Album Ranked”
