One Nation Under A Groove

Could only find the song, funky.

Couldn't listen to the album on Spotify, but the song I did hear was fun. Gonna keep an eye out for this one on vinyl.

Bara en låt fanns tillgänglig på Spotify

De verkar som att ja int fattar funkadelic!!!

Began iffy. Backhalf is dope vibe tho

Funkkia, mutta toistaa aika paljon itseään

A lot of my favorite music is influenced by funk. That being said, this album got worse the further into listening I got. It is a disappointment that we started off so well with our title song, but slowly devolved into just chanting with changing chords. While I love chanting in songs every now and then, and I thought the effect of chanting over consistently changing chords was interesting, (hypnotic? cult-like? Ask me in a few days while I simmer on it), it was not an enjoyable experience.

A little irritated that this isn't on Spotify. Just didn't get to spend the time with it that I wanted to. Kinda wish I could assign no rating and move on. 1 - bad 2 - average 3 - good 4 - great 5 - outstanding

Average on first listen except the last couple songs

Sounds very modern, not at all what I was expecting. Getting some reggae vibes now. I really don't know what this is...

Not for me but I can see the appeal of something like this. I’m not too into but for fans of this genre I can see why it’s on this list. I think in hindsight it’s a high mark even if it didn’t resonant with me

Inte i min smak.

I don’t remember anything about this album a day after I listened to it. I don’t think I remembered anything about it the moment it finished. I guess I’m giving it a 2.

Prefer this to the other Funkadelic album

I get the idea of this, but the constant guitar noodling over everything was too distracting after a while. It was all I could hear. I have never really been one for guitar solos, especially through the whole of every song. I played it through but got very distracted by said soloing, so not much else I can say about it.

Some of the beats were okay but the shouting about poop was weird.

Geef mij maar maggot brain, dat is toch een stuk boeiender dan dit plaatje.

Niet zo spannend, op dat ene nummer na waar een gitaarsolo van 5 minuten in zit :-) De rest vond ik allemaal meer-van-hetzelfde-achtergrondmuziek.

Not bad, but too repetitive

Ugh. Lot to get through that isn't my music. Didn't really enjoy anything until I got to Maggot Brain... but that is just a passionate ass guitar solo. That is da bomb. The rest i can easily let fade away.

I'm just not funky enough, groovy enough or psychedelic enough. As much as I'd like to wear the outfits it's just not for me

this wasnt worth my trip off of streaming

For a supposedly great album, I found it very repetitive. Nice it wasn’t a another 70s rock band but that won’t get it more stars. 3/10

Hmm apple music lazy sunday 7miler

Boring

not good

Much less insane than Maggot Brain. The long jams remain, but aren't as excessive or weird. Strangely, I sort of miss the cuckoo clocks and assorted animal noises. What is left is rocky funk, which is basically fine, but not that memorable. Rating: 2/5 Playlist track: One Nation Under a Groove Date listened: 06/05/22

Opening track gets all the stars! Precipitous decline after that :( Cholly and Maggot Brain were not bad. I was expecting the whole album to be like track 1. Disappointing.

The title track is a classic, I like the way it seems to start in the middle of the song. The rest of the album, I dunno. There are a few more slow jams than I was expecting. I’m not exactly bolting to the dance floor when I hear it. I like their sense of humour, but the 11-minute song about shit is longer than it needs to be.

Didn't really grab me. Probably wouldn't listen to again.

This was really hard to find and that burned up a lot of my patience. By the time I listened to this I was already grumpy ... There's a lot going on here with the jamming and zoning out. Though I did recognize some of these tracks from 90's De La samples this was not for me.

Ding. Ding. Ding! We have another member of the JBZ*!!! I can’t get into the neutron bomb either, but I am really into the deep voice singing Into You. This album gets me moving and grooving, but there are too many parts that drone on. *That’s the Jeff Buckley zone for the uninitiated.

I did love the title track of this album. The next two songs were okay if just a little long and tedious. And then there was an eleven-minute song about bowel movements and fried ice cream that just lost me. And the rest just kind of went on from there. Like many albums I've experienced here, I like the sound of short samples when I listen again, but it was the hour-long experience that was more negative.

lievas

Too funky for me! Maggot brain/Chant was the standout for me, second half of that song was great

Блин, не люблю такое

Odd

This album was about 20 minutes too long.

Ta culerón... pero no más que su portada de disco

It just rambles too much with insufficient structure

Every funk song I’ve ever heard I’ve either completely loved or completely hated and there is absolutely no in between. This album has several of both. 2/5

Not on Spotify, but I did find the whole album on Youtube. Title track was good and I enjoyed it, but unfortunately the rest of the album disappointed me. 2

A solid 2.5

I've heard of Funkadelic and other George Clinton projects. I'm not sure if I've heard any tracks specifically from Funkadelic or not. All of the tracks on this album were new to me. Most of the individual tracks were okay, but the first track on the B-side was enough to sink the album as a whole. I would not listen to this album again.

October 26, 2021 Most of this isn't on Spotify so I only listened to the title track. Honestly not upset that I don't have to hear more of this.

American, 80s, Funk + Funny, = Male - {1/10}

Full disclosure: this album was not available on Spotify. However, that being said, I listened to some of their other music and didn't love it. Coupled with the song titles and year of release, I feel pretty safe in my assumption here.

1978. One Nation Under a Groove

What the funk? Not great.

cant find the album on Spotify so im rating the song. good song very funky

Hogwash !

Fun, but kinda meh? Idk, maybe I'm just saying this bc we got this album to listen to just after Earth Wind and Fire

Вообще не выкупал прикола фанка никогда. В детстве засел момент из Джимми Нейтрона вроде, там тян ни с того ни с сего врубает какое-то унылое музло и говорит, мол «отрываемся под самый лучший жанр, фанк». А на неё все смотрят как на ебанутую. Думал, для комического эффекта подобрали какую-то уныль, типа как в Папиных дочках выбирали какую-то муть для демонстрации якобы готик-рока Даши. А нет, действительно, весь фанк, что слышал, звучит как the thing that should not be. Так что там по альбому. Да снова архачиная одиозная уныль. Заглавный трек вообще пустышка назойливая, но, бля, при этом внесён в зал славы рок-н-ролла, ну охуеть теперь. Треки скучные и надоедливые, названия всратые. Последний трек правда хорош, но занимает то же место в альбоме, что и New York, I Love You but You're Bringing Me Down в Sound of Silver, будто говорит: «Смотри, мы могли бы нормальное музло играть, но не стали, хы-ы». Ну и идите нахуй тогда.

Could barely tell one track from the next and was never ending.

Some nice moments and an influence to a number of bands not to mention numerous hip hop samples over the years but can’t say I will ever go back

This should be better. It starts well but quickly fades into background music because it's so samey throughout. I kept forgetting I was listening to it. It's obviously very influential, you can play 'spot the sample' throughout the thing. Disappointing though, I thought it would be more and it so veryn early was.

Shame, there was pockets of delight in some of theses funk fests but they fell flat often. Cholly was a particular highlight. 2*

Sadly the same as the last funk album on here, couple of great tracks but around 60% faff and nonsense. Cholly and Who Says A Funk Band Can't Play Rock are ace though.

strange. their other album is amazing though

meh, has its moment tho

Kein guter Tag zum Funken - 2

I just can't bring myself to enjoy funk

Felt to lazy to listen to it

skipped half of the album didnt like it

I’d like it

This turned into something I didn't expect or really like. It was difficult to find this album to listen to it. I liked the first song, then not so much. Lost its funk. 1 star

mrj

There's only so long I can listen to the same bassline riff with some one interchanging any random word for "funk" Funk off

Unavailable to listen to

Да бля

Not as good as others

o Spotify me ajudou NÃO TENDO o disco na plataforma. cool.

Not on the ol’ Spotify.

Nah. Just didn't care for it. Too funky. 1/5.

Bro I can't listen to it if it's not on spotify.

This is what white people who only listen to prog rock think is essential Black™️ media. First song was fine but basically tuned out the rest of the album. No saves/5

??? i didn't like the first one bruh

funk mais pas du tout entraînant c'est plain

Couldn’t find album

Not on Spotify

Very funky. Didn't mind it. One song was big ass. 2.5/8 55.9%

Not available on my Spotify, which was surprising.

No Spotify no stars!

meh

Un album foarte scurt hahah

Look, with George Clinton's resume, I went into this with higher expectations. My first thought? I can hear why some producers would sample tracks from this to bring a certain texture, there's definitely sonic richness here. But I gotta keep it real: the lyrics aren't the best. The vocals might trick you into ignoring that fact if you're just vibing, but I read along while listening so... yeah, impossible to miss. And here's my thing, if you're gonna be silly, commit. Embrace the unserious vibe, be proud of it, lean all the way in. That doesn't quite happen here. Also, some of these tracks could've been shortened. Maybe the length was intentional, I don't know, but personally it feels like a producer having fun in the studio showing off everything he can do. Which is fine, except when the excess starts overshadowing the brilliant parts. The repetition makes it feel monotonous, honestly the opposite of what the album's premise promised. A shame. This is an album with plenty of ideas and good elements, but it comes across a bit pretentious and lacking objectivity. Great concepts, messy execution. Needed someone to tell George "less is more" and mean it.

Not available on Spotify

Not for me. 1/5

The songs were too long. It’s not my favorite genre.

It’s starts quite enjoyable and obviously very funky, however the tracks are sooo long they become monotonous and boring. By half way through track two i’ve had enough and know all tracks are gonna be the same. Promentalshitbackwashpsychosis enema squad is just shit, so the name is at least partly right. The remaining tracks fall back into meandering overlong funk. For the second time i’ve seen Funkadelic pop up, think this will be good and then been proven quite how wrong i can be.

Estás bandas o discos cuyas canciones consisten en hablar de su propio sonido o de su género musical me dan bastante vergüenza ajena. Todas las canciones hablan de sí mismos y de lo que tocan. Es absurdo. He ido saltando las canciones. Todas son parecidas y sin contenido.

Ikke fundet

Could not really find an album so i did not listen to it

Strange, hallmark product of its time. (Just like the previous Funkadelic from ~6 years prior I’ve already previously listened to.)

Songs too long and not on spotify

27th album with group. This is a repeat. I can’t believe I liked this the first time. The instrumentals are boring and repetitive, and the lyrics are awful. Good Songs - Who Says a Funk Band Can’t Play Rock?! Bad Songs - One Nation Under a Groove, Groovalleigance, Promentalshitbackwashpsychosis Enema Squad (The Doo Doo Chasers), Into You, and Cholly (Funk Getting Ready to Roll!)

Not for me

Not my tatest

never liked it

Album not available

Not on Spotify

By the time it got to 3 minutes into track 2 this was starting to annoy me. By 5 minutes into track 2 I was angry and wanting the whole experience to end. It seems I don't get 'funk' if this is supposed to be a great funk album. Perhaps it's a 'transatlantic thing'. Nah. Not for me. I am out. 1/5.

Nope

Somewhere in the middle of it I had to go do something so I paused it. When I came back I was like "at least that shit ended". Then I remembered it didn't. Unpausing it was like when you get used to the smell of a decomposing corpse in your house, then you get out to buy something, and when you get back home the stench is unbearable again even though you've spent the last two weeks breathing it Bonus songs were really good but they're not from the main album so I won't factor them in

Album is not streaming

Not on spotify

Couldn’t find complete album but listened to songs. Not what I perfer

Nope, not for me.

Not available for this region

Unable to listen? All greyed out

Awful

Just not a fan.

Not available on streaming 😭

There was only 3 tracks on Spotify

How blasphemous!

Couldn’t find online - didn’t listen

I barely listened to be honest

Naja, funky!

Funk ain’t it

No

Can’t listen on spotify

Boring. Couldn’t make it the whole way through.

Sucks

look. it's kinda nice. but the length of each song makes me wanna cry. it doesn't progress or evolve into anything that i feel is very relevant to me. sry.

This album is too funky for me.

Ovo je čisto nabacano "vidite me kako dobro znam svirati" bez ikakve povezanosti, smisla, ili dopadljivosti. Vjerujem da ima puno boljih funk albuma i jedva čekam da ih čujem, ali ovaj me baš razočarao.

Nope, not for me.

So link seems broken, pulled up what I think is proper album on Spotify and outright from the first song like definitely no. Was not expecting some weird ASMR smacked onto a song like that. Granted see why this was also flagged. Again first song is the same rift on the guitar that’s used in whole lotta love by Led Zepplin so hence why this album is getting flagged.

No

Maggot Brain > Whatever the heck this is

Not for me.

Nah bruh

Well I guess it’s danceable but the entire album is a repeat of one song so 1/5, what a ripoff.

What can I say, funk's just not for me

I didn't like this, I just couldn't get into it, sorry

Unfortunally the album wasnt on spotify anymore ,

Luckily there were only 3 songs of this album on Spotify.

Second Funkadelic album. Nothing new here, over long and monotonous.

This album isn't even available on Spotify, wtf

I’m not into this one. So many songs start off the same and then it becomes a cacophony of sounds that melt into a white noise.

No me gusta

Excessive guitar

Jive Bullshit

I'm just not in to this

Unavailable

This was not my favorite. I don’t like rap and when it’s like this I especially dont like it. Maybe that’s messed up of me and ignorant.

Title wrong. Think I’m part of a Nation but certainly not under a groove. Not on Spotify?!! Lucky people. It is on my bloody Tidal though! 1/5 31/8/24

- Auf Spotify sind nur drei Tracks, deswegen habe ich es mir auf YouTube reingezogen - ist funky af, aber so richtig was kann ich damit trotzdem nicht anfangen

Couldn’t find this album on free listening sites so couldn’t listen/review.

N/A Unavailable to stream

Terrible

Album not available on Spotify.

Very short, funk, no thanks

Two tracks..

This isn't an album

Did not listen. It isn't on Spotify or Apple Music

Gefällt mir nicht.

Cant find it anywere

I like the Parliament records much more. For my taste this is to slow and soft.

Langweilig - Funk halt. Spotify spielt nur "One Nation" aus. Die anderen Titel sind ausgegraut.

Not on Spotify unfortunately

This is definitely one of those albums on the list that, whilst I enjoyed it, I can't fully appreciate its importance or significance as it is so far out of my wheelhouse. I enjoyed it, but will likely never think of it again. I'll leave this one to the funk fans.

Not on spotify

A melted bowl of ice cream.

Never listened to Funkadelic before, much to one of my mates disgust. He was so enthusiastic about this album when I told him it came up on the list, bless him. So I listened with an open mind. Track one went as I imagined. Nice and funky (obviously). Soon went downhill as track two was poor. Track three was surprising - whilst I didn’t like it, I appreciated the variation of the lead guitar part. Track four takes the award for the best and the worst song title of all time, and just droned on for far too long. Did the Chef from South Park sing ‘Into You?’ - awful song. About to give up after that one, and started skipping tracks until ‘Maggot Brain’ caught my attention. So out of place on this album…more Jimi Hendrix than Funkadelic… really good stuff. Bad again after that ‘highlight’ Well, that was a lot more varied than anticipated, but a mixed bag of rubbish. 1 star

Not super good. Pretty Superbad™️

Not my thing and couldn't play half the songs

Couldn't find this album on any service.

Spotify only had 2 songs I also realised I don't really like funk

Fun sounds but just not my vibe. Also…7+ minute songs! Crazy

This is very much not my kind of music. I think this album is probably chill to just have on in the background, but for me at least I'm not too interested in actively listening to this.

Would not play on spotify

Not good

Didn’t exist on Spotify

*Not on Spotify*

Yhdeksi samaksi funk-massaksi menee

Album is not available on Spotify

Only 1 song on Spotify

Not accessible via Spotify

ikke tilgængeligt :((

Only one song available on spotify and even that was too much funk for me

Unlistenable

This could have been a good album with no vocals and songs lasting 1 to 2 minutes shorter

Yuck!!

not on apple music

Bullshit. Impossible to find. Obscure albums with slim availability shouldn’t be on the list. If I could, I would give 0/10 since I can't even listen to it...

I tried, but couldn't listen to the whole thing...too cheesy

Cannot stand funk

solo pido un album que me guste :((((((((((((

Removed from spotify

REALLY not my style
