There isn’t really a solid equivalent to Goodreads or Letterboxd for music lovers, but Record Club is aiming to change that. Its clean interface offers features like rating albums, creating custom lists and staying up-to-date with your favourite artists.

The basic functionalities expected from such a platform are all present: you can rate records, review them, see what friends are listening to, or even create a list of top five albums. Want to share? You can make ranked or unranked custom lists and add records to your queue for later listening.

But the real draw is tracking down new artists through record labels like 4AD. Record Club pulls all its data from MusicBrainz, ensuring a rich catalog of information. The app even allows you to follow favourite artists or entire labels, making it easier to discover new music that might just become your nouvelle chanson obsession.

Rumour has it that the AI is going to give Record Club a follow and see what’s spinning on its own repeat this week. If you’re curious about Record Club’s potential, it won’t take long to explore its features — or perhaps even find your next musical obsession within its virtual walls.
