I’ve recently been going through every year in music for my thorough retrospectives, and as such I’ve been exposed to some fantastic albums. I wanted to talk about some of my favourites – this time looking at the 1970’s. I reviewed fifty albums as part of that decade’s retrospectives (five per year), all of whichContinue reading “Top 10 Albums of the 1970’s”

My Worst Opinions
I’m approaching my sixth anniversary of running this blog all about my personal opinions, and that got me thinking – are there any opinions I’d retract in hindsight? Are there things I said in the past which seem stupid nowadays? And so I went back through every single one of my posts, and let meContinue reading “My Worst Opinions”
“…Like Clockwork” (Queens of the Stone Age) – Every Song Ranked
I’ve always been aware of Queens of the Stone Age and liked their work, but it was only when listening to “…Like Clockwork” in full for my 2013 Music Retrospective that I became a true fan. This is such an excellent album, front to back, and there are individual songs here that have become recentContinue reading ““…Like Clockwork” (Queens of the Stone Age) – Every Song Ranked”
Every “Hannibal” Episode Ranked
It’s been a few years since I finished “Hannibal”, and a couple of years since my re-watch. Even now, looking back on the series as an older and wiser man, I still consider it one of my favourite shows I’ve seen. I ranked the seasons a while ago (a short list considering there’s only three!),Continue reading “Every “Hannibal” Episode Ranked”

2020: The Year In Music
2020 – The COVID-19 pandemic forced the world into lockdown. Joe Biden is elected US President. Boris Johnson secures a Brexit deal for the UK. George Floyd’s death at the hands of a US police officer sparks the “Black Lives Matter” protests. The Beirut port explosion kills 200 and injures thousands. And, in (hopefully) someContinue reading “2020: The Year In Music”
Best Ace Attorney One-Hit Wonder Characters
I’ve ranked the main characters, I’ve ranked the defendants, I’ve ranked the culprits … but, as I realised during my recent Ace Attorney Deep Dives, that doesn’t highlight all of the wonderful characters this series has to offer. There are some side characters who appeared in one case and one case only, and yet madeContinue reading “Best Ace Attorney One-Hit Wonder Characters”
2019: The Year In Music
2019 – Hong Kong protests China’s undemocratic rulings, Algerians protest their president Abdelaziz Bouteflika, Sudanese protest their president Omar Hassan al-Bashir, Chileans protest inequality, Iraq protests its government, Iran protests fuel subsidies, and elsewhere Bolivia, India, Nicaragua and Russia all partake in “The Year of Protests”. The first picture of a black hole is taken.Continue reading “2019: The Year In Music”
God Of War: Ragnarok – All Nine Realms Ranked
We couldn’t have asked for much more from 2018’s “God Of War” reboot. It had everything – tight combat, an amazing story with fleshed-out characters, an expansive journey through the realms … well, not all the realms. One of my biggest dreams for the sequel, “Ragnarok”, was to be able to explore all nine realmsContinue reading “God Of War: Ragnarok – All Nine Realms Ranked”
“Rick And Morty” Season 8 – Every Episode Ranked
“Rick and Morty” Season 8 is finally on Netflix, which means it’s time for me to rank some more episodes! As I’ve done with previous seasons, I’ll give each episode a graded score to mark their quality. It was a mixed bag this season, so the grades should help to set the episodes apart. BeforeContinue reading ““Rick And Morty” Season 8 – Every Episode Ranked”
