Nah - too patriotic and country twangish sounding for me.
I received a notification a couple of weeks ago that I had rated my 900th album of 1001. I have never skipped an album or song no matter how bad it’s been. I’ve listened to German noise, spoken word, foreign language, mediocre British pop and everything else. I did not think the streak would be broken and by Springsteen nonetheless. This is like how 4th album on the list, he is incredibly boring and sucks and I saw it had a run time of nearly 1 hour and 20 minutes and I noped the fuck out.
Sigh. Springsteen again. 1 star bc religious white dude.
Shit album
everything that Bruce does sounds the fucking same so how on earth can he have 3 albums on this list when its just the same song for 3 hours?
1. Lonesome Day - emo dad rock? 2. Into the Fire - some nice dobro and then it goes down hill from there. Jesus rock? Super original. Not. Boring and gross. 3. Waiting on a Sunny Day - I don't know. It's kinda catchy I guess, but the general vibe has been captured 10 million times. Maybe I'm not in the right mindset for Springsteen right now. Or maybe I just don't like his music. Might not make it through this. 4. Nothing Man - need a break. Will return. The break helped a little. Jumped back into this song and thought, this isn't so bad, and then quickly forgot that I was listening to music. 5. Ugh. This is a slog. Were they really struggling to find 1001 albums? Did I really need to hear this before I die? If I die tomorrow, I'm gonna be pissed that this was the last album I heard. I want to go back and rate Death in Vegas. At least that was somewhat interesting. Oh, look at that, we're on 6 already. Eh. A little better. Still boring. 7. Whoa! Is this a Sting album? Bruce Stingsteen? I'm not convinced Bruce's voice works for this, but it's the most interesting song so far. By a mile. This definitely works for me. 8. Ok. Some serious pop rock radio vibes. I don't hate it so far. I couldn't do it. 1 hour and 12 minutes of this shit. Dan Cranford said I didn't need to torture myself anymore. Thanks Mr. Cranford (aka Utah Skinny). 1.5/10.
Unter 1001 Platten, die man vor dem Ableben gehört haben sollte, befinden sich niemals vier von Springsteen, vielleicht nicht mal eine. Merkt der Autor eigentlich noch was? Abgesehen davon ist diese (wieder einmal) auch noch ideenlose Grütze. Was für ein Ärgernis!
un noni, no me identifico en nada
Couldn’t wait for it to be over. One listen through was enough. Don’t like Springsteen. 1/5
tired so tired
Pretty meh.
This is a boring album.
Whhhat!!! Another BS ?
Kreativni bankrot, najgeneričniji album do sada na stranici, smeće. Da je rođen u Zagrebu, a ne JU ES EJ možd bi bio bolji.
Terrible. Couldn't make it past the second song and I don't even want to try. Such flat vocals.
inoffensive, boring, and bland. I can see this playing well in places where bullriding is the #1 sport. Just enough of an edge on it to appeal to dudes who'd otherwise be listening to pop country if it weren't so effeminate. I hate almost everything about it. I did, however, enjoy the bizarre, misplaced afrobeats on worlds apart, and the funk in let's be friends. really subverted my expectations for 2 songs in the middle there. it wasn't particularly interesting, but I didn't hate that 10 minute stretch.
I mean - it's Bruce. Followed expectations - I have a preference for his work on Nebraska so Paradise felt pretty good. Can't say I really enjoy much else on here.
Typische ttt-Platte für den sanften Porsche Fahrer, der an früher denkt, als die Jeans noch nicht von Armani, der Bauch darüber noch keiner und der Bruce noch der Boss war.
If the sign "Live, Laugh, Love" had a soundtrack, I think this would be it. Into the fire was a terrible track. Just go to church already, damn. I'm not ruling out the boss entirely, but I did not enjoy this album. Might need to go earlier than 2002 for him.
Boring!
Dad rock.
