Reviews (page 8 of 8)
I dislike reggae that isn’t Bob Marley. For making me suffer through a long album, I divide the score by the number of albums suffered (double album).
Brutta copia di bob marley. Già Bob Marley è vecchio e ha stufato, figuriamoci le brutte copie
No.
Reggee sucks. I usually agree with the messages in the lyrics. But the music itself is garbage. This is no different.
Wouldn't listen to UB40 if you paid me.
Yeah, this holds zero interest for me. It is bad reggae. Nice, maybe,that it opened people up to reggae. But beyond that, nope.
Albums boring as hell
What is this watered-down, generic-sounding, wanna-be reggae doing on a list of albums you must hear before you die? Like, what? Such a boring album. I wanted to like it, but no.
It’s pretty slow and dull and most songs sounds the same. If a 60+ minute British Dub album sounds like a good idea to you, you might like this. I did not.
Didn't really like this. It felt too yacht rock for me.
10/09/22 Maybe I’m close minded but there’s something about white reggae that turns me off … and made me turn this one off before getting halfway. I listen to too much roots reggae to keep to appreciate this. Wonder why white rap doesn’t bother me the same way.
It's just not for me
Random thoughts: - fuckin sick of Dimery pushing the UK. - didn't know UB40 started out as one of those pom reggae bands - I hate pom reggae even more than regular reggae - an entire fucking HOUR of this shit? bugger me. - I'm giving out two 1s in a row! - I hate giving out low scores at the same time as the "omg white people doing x!!" losers, so lots of negativity this morning. 1/5.
I hate that someone said they don’t like this because they don’t like reggae. This is just garbage. And NOBODY likes garbage. JK a lot of people do just not me.
I was going to give this 2 stars because they tried, but then I remembered I gave The Band 2 stars and they are way better than this. 1/5
Maybe this is good reggae I don’t know. But everything sounded the exact same to me and I turned it off 6th song in. I kept imagining Barney from how I met your mother making fun of reggae and it made me mad at that show and then mad at reggae and then mad at the show again. So if you have any reggae that is interesting pass it along.
Nope. One of my most hated bands, and they still are. The world does not need Brummies (doing cod reggae). An album so bad it is practically a hate crime! Listen to the music they claim to love, not this piss poor facsimile. 0 🌟. Seriously, not even the 1 I had to give it.
Every song sounds 'the same'.
This is just not my style.. made it through half the album. "You be 40 - I'll be leaving now..."
Hard pass
My Mum likes this band. I'm not a fan of reggae at the best of times but Brummie reggae? Ugh. BT: King, I Think It's Going To Rain Today, Food For Thought
I think I could go my entire life without listening to this album. Music quality wasn't bad, many songs blended together.
Yikes
