music to listen to while cleaning the house

Not worth the effort to write this.

Terrible! Long instrumental songs. One of the songs featured a cow mooing and farting noises. Why would anyone want to listen to that?

So painful. Glad they evolved

Didn't like any of the songs

This album is a perfect example of how adding more, doesn’t make it better. The only song I truly enjoyed was Maggot Brain. The rest was a bust and a waste of my time. Favorite Song: Maggot Brain, alternative mix - hate the title, but the guitar is good.

Rubbish

Felt like I got maggot brain listening to that

El solo de 10 minutos esta aqui con nosotros? No lo entendí. Me sorprendió el segundo track, sino era un rotundo 1 sjsjsjs. Me gusta el swing? Likes: Can you get to that - Super Stupid

I am not funkadelic

Not for me. Think I’d need to be high/tripping to enjoy this. Disappointed

very much a jam album, not really my sound

Not my vibe. Basically all instruments, didnt even finish it

Really not my taste. I truly never need to hear cow or fart noises in music. Long ass songs, too. A few catchy beats in the middle of the album, but trust I will not be back.

#45 Not cohesive and too chaotic

1. brain - 2.5 2. get - 1 3. hit - 1 4.folks -1 5. Stupid -1 6. Minds - 0 7. Wars -1

Just couldn't listen.

#169/1001. I tried to listen to this on my car radio, and couldn't make anything out of it. Clearly it was not produced for listening in cars. Then I listened to it on my headphones and couldn't make anything of it. And i thought I loved all p-funk.

Maggot Brain aims for cosmic soul and psychedelic freedom, but from this angle it just feels lost in its own haze. The title track’s long guitar solo sets a mood, yet the rest struggles to keep that spark alive - too spaced-out, too self-indulgent. There’s vision here, but it’s buried under excess and drift. A bold idea that never quite connects.

nicht mein Ding

Somebody or some podcast or some blog post or some article told you this was a super amazing album. You wanted to fit in and be hip or whatever so you went along and pretended to like it. Boring. 1/5 stars.

Noodly guitar doesn't really do it for me. Also a big no to funk and soul.

Annoying

Good grief. 1

Rubbish! Sound effects make it unlistenable

The iconic Maggot Brain solo. I get the cultural significance and the whole mythology behind it, but try as I might I couldn’t really get into this album. There are undeniably good rhythms and grooves. I don’t see ever feeling a strong drive to return to this record though. Cosmic Slop is more enjoyable to me

1e nummer is vage zooi voor als je aan de drugs bent. Oude gitaar en drums band

I'm not sure what other people are hearing that I'm not, didn't enjoy this at all.

Bobbins.

This sounds like what I imagine an acid trip feels like.

Not my bin of questionable combined liquids

Nah no thanks

Guitar intro is good. Can definitely see the Hendrix inspiration. However it's definitely not my kind of thing. Last song, not a fan of the weird farting samples they have, but its music i suppose.

Meh....nope.

Talented musicians performing songs I just don’t like at all.

This album sounds like standing in guitar center on a Saturday afternoon

That last song was just too much, rest was meh

Not much of a fan

This was a weak album! How did it make the 1001?

Already answered. Unpleasant.

וואו זה הרגיש כאילו הכל באילתור

Absolutely bizarre

Not enough drugs in the world...

Não sei o que tentaram fazer nesse álbum, mas com certeza não foi uma boa ideia

I dislike this for the same reason I dislike The Doors...masturbatory solos that go on forever. I actually got a little angry listening to this, but maybe I just woke up on the wrong side of bed. Looking at the other ratings I'm way outside the norm on this. So be it

Not funky enough

Experimental. Evocative. Black Liberation. Annoying use of stereo.

some decent stuff on here but then one track just has a bunch of fart noises on it. terrible.

Pues mira, por la falta de respeto de la última canción, un 1.

Funk und Psycadelic. Nee.

Well I listened to the whole thing. What a load of shit. Sounds like the song Ross wronte on Friends

Would need a magot in your brain to listen to much of this

Not the kind of music I prefer

This one was not at all to my taste, but I did hear lots of things that I think influenced later songs and bands that I do like. If I could give it a 1.5 I would because I suspect it was a very influential record for a lot of people.

Really didn't enjoy anything here

ni lo escuché

Can You Get to That was my favorite. The others were underwhelming

Not my cup of tea

Horrible

I’m tired of people thinking just because something is experimental it means that it’s good. You don’t get to put 9 minutes of disparate guitar sounds over empty noise and call it art. I know this because none of my dick head friends from high school ever went platinum. You could tell me a bulk of this album was the warmup they played before they recorded the actual album and I wouldn’t have blinked.

Definitely no

As uninteresting now as it was back then ...

Did not enjoy any of the songs.

After the interminable first track this became an okay album, but not my genre at all.

I found the first track to be quite annoying. The guitar went on and on like a demo or jam session which I wanted to skip numerous times but my hands were wet from doing dishes. If I didn’t have filthy pots I would have skipped it. A lot of the albums rhythm section is monotonous to the point it sounds looped and uninspired. It gave me “monkey smashing symbol” anger. I don’t think the album has aged well.

Idk. Maybe I needed to be high...

Didn’t get through the whole album. Not my style

Pochisimo

Nothing on this album justifies listening to the 10 minute wah pedal demonstration it opens with.

Did not listen. 1 star just for the name of the album. Music should appeal, not repel.

Really weird, definitely not my vibe

Wouldn’t load

Mediocre. You and Your Folks was decent. Wars of Armageddon is beyond awful, especially with the fart noises. 2/10.

Jarring

Not my cup of tea.

I am genuinely convinced that I will never understand why people like the music they do, and that the Rolling Stones throws darts to determine their best albums lists. This is fucking boring. I do not like it or see any musical appeal in it. How the fuck did people listen to dogshit like this for an entire decade? The Vietnam era of music was really a blight on mankind. But being anti-war and anti-troops is unironically based, so it’s got that going for it. Veterans do not deserve your respect. And neither does this album.

Heard it before?: No Enjoy it?: Nah it’s not my thing at all Favourite song: didn’t have one

weird.

Pues mira, por la falta de respeto de la última canción, un 1.

Pues mira, por la falta de respeto de la última canción, un 1.

Except for opening title track I sense nothing more than the pain going to the dentist. 1.4

Meh - I was expecting something with serious Funk - a la Parliament or some of Earth Wind and Fire - what was presented was a mishmash of what was at times blues guitar over motown rythms, followed by 'artistic' sound doodlings. Seriously unimpressed

Not for me... I can appreciate the 'funk' though. Might have been better if I was in a different mood.

Not good

The heck was that?

Felt like a disaster of an album to me, right from track 1 (and I don’t hate funk).

As soon as that baby started wailing in the last track I switched over to Phil Collins 'oooo yeah I wish it would rain down'....on my ears and wash all this musical cack out of them. The sound of the smell of cold Brussels sprouts. Amazing what one late 80s power ballad can do!

This album just sucked. Was maybe like a funk jam album with the occasional random sounds. 2/10.

Garbage!

Went in not knowing what to expect. Did not enjoy it though I could understand others liking it

O.k. i guess

Not a super fan of experimental music

Not a fan of funkadelic. This album proved that
