Pleasant enough to listen to but easily forgettable

Easy to listen to but not exciting to listen to.

This is an easy going listen without anything too offensive. I just think it’s kind of forgettable.

More audio wallpaper - washed right over me and nothing annoyed or offended me, but neither did anything grab by attention

Too twee for me

Très unidimensionnel. Une pièce a attiré mon attention, le reste est trop "safe". Malgré les arrangements avec plusieurs instruments, ça sonne fade à mon oreille.

Achingly knowing and yet, pretty dull.

Oikein söpöä ja herkkää, mut taustamusaa.

Die Nachfolgeplatte hatte ich hier bereits gehört und nicht gemocht. Ich war, gerade weil diese beiden Platten offenbar in rascher Folge aufgenommen wurden, etwas überrascht, dass mir dieses Album so viel besser gefallen hat. Das hat sich gelegt, wird in der 2. Hälfte immer öder.

Thought this was going to be good but it was boring

dan 3/1001: jesu ovi albumi osrednji il ja samo ne kapiram muziku? electronic renaissance mozda jedina iole zanimljiva pesma na albumu. Moze to i bolje, 5/10

Heard this last year and quite liked it. Today it bored the balls off me.

boring

Still don't know if I am a Belle & Sebastian fan but leaning towards no. With the exception of a few songs including that one song from 'This is Skateboarding' on this album

Kinda chill but I don't remember much

I went into this album expecting to hate it. Turns out, I was right. It's a hateful album. How something can be so insanely pretentious and mind-numbingly boring at the same time is beyond me. What a waste of an hour.

The best of this album IMO: - You're Just A Baby - Electronic Renaissance Too calm and sweet. Not my type of rock/indie/pop. Their electronic side is way more interesting to me (like with Electronic Renaissance). I was very bored by the end of this album. 2.2/5

I am afraid I just don't get it--how is this a top 1000, and how does it have all the 4 & 5 star reviews? Seems a bit drone-y to me with little in the way of dynamics and interest.

With a breastfeeding tiger on the cover I expected something more interesting.

A couple likeable tracks. 2.375

I did not care for this album. The songs were not that good and it was not memorable.

meh - end of the album was aight, but was expecting great things based on this cover

Not my kind of musib

Not for me at all but I will say that I Could Be Dreaming is a pretty perfect indie pop/rock sound that has stuck around even today

Like she's losing it

I'm very familiar with Belle & Sebastian's work from the early 2000's. As such I'm finding it hard to get into this earlier 1996 album. It's interesting to see where they started, but I much prefer the later work I'm used to!

First listen. Nice. I like the sounds. Would like to hear more of it.

Iskreno sam očekivao da će mi se album svidit, ali jednostavno mi djeluje dosadno, osim Electronic Reneissance, odlična stvar. Ostatak je dosta zaboravljiv, šteta, a baš sam htio da mi ovo bude dobar album. Možda krivo vrijeme za slušati? Ne znam.

Pretty but nothing engaging. Inoffensive. Acceptable at a cocktail party. Not really for this kind of list.

First few tracks- quirky, upbeat, very interesting lyrics. More teenage antipathy than angst to the soundtrack of colourful, happy music. Love the instrumentation, the horns especially. Not mad about the singing itself but it works with this style of music. Electronic Renaissance came out of nowhere, reminds me of an Arcade Fire album. Album sort of became featureless after that

Scottish indie music. not my thing

Not my jam, but kind of cool nonetheless

eh

Not my taste, a bit uneventful

false

Only 3 tracks from the album are currently available on YouTube but they were not my sort of music

It was okay. Pleasant. the cover was better than the album. I liked I don't love anyone and electric ren. Didn't love anything. I could do without hearing this again. I think it is the monotone singing. I don't feel any pain, emotion, joy... it's xanax music

Bit samey. Not really my cup of tea.

Pues, me gustaron 5 canciones de 10.

It’s just ok. Nothing special but also nothing bad. I wouldn’t feel like I was missing anything if I’d have not heard this album and I think I’ll forget it quickly.

This is an upbeat and folky pop style inspired album. An accent on the main singer adds a sense of rawness to the soundstage whilst the use of taps, claps and drums allows for a more playful and rich tone throughout. Just as the style of the album is started to be understood, an **Electronic Renaissance** in the form of a mid album breakup shakes things up. The mixing of this track is raw and unfiltered, presenting harsh trebles and highs, a radio in the shed experience. Suddenly, we are back into the earlier album with a happy style guitar riff paving way for the ballad style **‘I could Be Dreaming’** The use of tremolo and echos throughout the song provides a warm feel to the track. Powerful tracks and voice complete the powerful backing to the song. The vocals provide a surprising rounding and polish to the outdo of the song, solidifying the ballad experience. Suddenly the tempo drops in a reflective outlook on life as shown in **We Rule The School**, make the most of your life and think back to the times as a kid. This vocal emphasised track intertwines with various musical melodies to represent the different paths of different people. Powerful lyrics presenting a powerful message. **My Wandering Days Are Over** has a sense of refinement, a reflective look back on life with a feeling of the journey through life. We can hear about the path the lead singer has taken, the wisdom he has gained along the way. The music is less playful, more serious and the addition of brass represents the subtle seriousness of the track. **I don’t love anyone** and **Mary Jo** are just not worth writing about, a weak end to a could be great album.

I did not enjoy this.

Not a great album to me. The music is tame and not very 'creative' basic tunes. The singing is what made me really not like this. It's not so much singing as narrating over some instruments and there doesn't seem to be and flow in the lyrics. It sounds like you asked someone how was your day and as they told you there was some music in the backround

meh

Laaaaame

Beetje slappe indiepop, niet echt mijn ding

There's nothing wrong with this album but it's not my kind of music. Just a noninteruptive scottish pop.

Beetje saai

Nice. Nothing stood out to me though.

it was fine. good walking music. the contrast between the lyrics and sound was interesting but not groundbreaking

Not sure about this one

Mellow kinda boring

Didn't really feel this one

eh not for me

Mainitsiko joku unimusiikin?

I don’t know what this was but +1 star for the cover album

Pretty mid but wasn’t a fan of the vocals which seemed as if they were punched in on an intercom. Plus the percussion mix was way lower for a good chunk of the album

1. ztate - 1 2. ezpectationz - 1 3. loozing - 0 4. baby - 0 5. electronic - 2 6. dreaming - 1 7. rule -1 8. dayz - 1 9. love - 1 10. mary - 0

Not at all what I was expecting, but this was super boring.

escuché medio disco, muy de fondo. Muy soft. No me gustó

Can’t get into these. Wishy washy 1/5

not my type of music

An album for self indulgent hipsters that think they are cool when they are really just ass-hats. 1.00

Meh found it pretty boring

Doesn’t resonate with me at all. It’s bland, and uninspiring. The lyrics sound like the rantings of someone in an insane asylum, delivered with the enthusiasm of the most meek person in the world. The music is inoffensive so I wasn’t clamoring for it to hurry up and end, I just kept waiting for something to grab me and it never happened.

1/5

I do not like this

Album 20 and this is the first I’ve found that commits the cardinal sin of just being… boring. Absolutely nothing about this album and I felt it was a complete waste of my time. While I’ve not found certain albums, cough, the Pogues, unenjoyable I can at least appreciate their artistic merit. This is just so cookie cutter vanilla and inoffensive it’s almost offensive to me.

This is a way too soft and wimpy. Makes Simon and Garfunkel sound like hardcore metal. Not bad strings and trumpet here and there but good god I'm sleepy. "Electronic Renaissance" and "My Wandering Days Are Over" picked it up a bit and saved it from getting a lower score than Sex Packets. With 6 artists making up the band you would expect more from a record. Maybe it's just Murdoch on lead vocals...Lou Reed on Ambien. How is this a must listen before I die? 1.23 stars.

Oh, I didn’t like that at ALL. Whiney to my ears.

Whatever. It's okay but kind of generic and boring. A few of the executions missed for me too - there was one song where there was talking in the background but it had me wondering if something was playing in a different tab, not that there was talking in the song. 1/5 stars.

Did not enjoy it

I wish I could die without hearing music of this nature ever again. I don't think it's technically bad, I just hate listening to it.

I first came across Tigermilk aged 11 perusing the indie rock section of Rough Trade Records, the shapely breasts of the cover began my sexual genesis. I convinced my father to lend me 2 shillings and purchased this album. When I heard this lispy man with no Scottish accent mention Debenhams I entered a state of clarity and turned this crap off.

hated this a lot. don’t have anything good to say so I’ll leave it at that

BOOOOOOO BORING!!!!

Not coffee, not tea

Kan manden ikke synge eller lader han bare som om han ikke kan???

Halfway through i let out a big sigh. A sigh of discontent. At this stage in my life, I have no use for this album. I have never had a use for this album in my life, and I don't think I ever will

I cannot stand these guys. Just a bunch of noise at 500 hz and above, tuneless meandering with pretty instrumentation.

Jao dosta tih loših albuma pliiiz. 1/5, 1/10

Forgettable.

Second verse, same as the first. This was slow boring shit. This felt very uninspired. I enjoyed the music here more than their last one from this list, but I am still unimpressed with the vocals.

Dog shit

Not for me

Yep, still not my taste. I had to force myself to sit through it all, which only confirmed I could've bailed out at any time prior.

не зашло

The twee aesthetic still sucks ass. Also, None of them are named Belle nor Sebastian. ⭐

Not for me.

Just off. 1/5

What

Tweeee

Belle and Sebastian just isn’t my thing.

Gross, has left a bad taste in my mouth 🤢

Is this a nepo-band? The singer is just not good.

This was, twee?? Ugh

Horribly fragile. 1.4

Insisto, de cornudo esta banda

Same song over and over. Not my thing its boring and predictable.

Didn't enjoy much of anything here

Gepflegte Langeweile.

Not my style

Ugh, more hipster folk music. Uninspiring and boring. Sounds like a rough cut of a demo tape.

Not to my taste at all

no

This did zero for me, boring, bland, go nowhere music.

easy listening this maybe ain't

Worse than cancer

Not good

Mehhhh

Not my thing. Awful.

Boring.

Mesmo com o o vocal da Isobel aparecendo no final da última música, não tem como eu agradar desse rock bonitinho, indie sem graça.

More like kitten milk. This cotton soft woe-is-me brand of hipster wimpiness does nothing but irritate me. Go purr yourselves. 😾

Bored the shit out of me

Twee indie stuff. Reminds me of Donovan or Cat Stevens, which is not what I was expecting. The lyrics didn't really jump out at me, so not really sure what it was all about. And I don't really like the voice. Thought I would like this more than I did. Disappointing.

Very chill music that I’m not all that into. Listen again: no Purchase for my collection: no Favourite Song: Electronic Renaissance Worst Song: didn’t like a lot of them

Not a lot of range in the album.

MEH. Also wtf, why do people enjoy listening to singers who sing flat? So grating. Couldn't make it past halfway. Whiny garbage.

What's worse than a boring, monotonous, '60s folk rock album made by yet another group of white dudes, and a saccharine, indie choirboy record with zero grit from the mid to late '00s? An album that simultaneously sounds like both of those genres. Blech.

liked songs: she's losing it mary jo didnt like: all the rest

It’s like music that’s daring itself to not exist. Wither and waste music, I have zero idea as to why anybody would choose to make or listen to music in the Twee genre, it seems antithetical to everything I go to music for.

No es mi estilo

not my gig

The State I Am in - 1 star Expectations - 2.5 stars She's Losing It - 3 stars You're Just a Baby - 2 stars Electronic Renaissance - 1 star I Could Be Dreaming - 2.5 stars We Rule the School - 1 star My Wandering Days Are Over - 1 star I Don't Love Anyone - 4 stars Mary Jo - 1 star

Goofy ahh

nope

Ik weet niet waarom ik zo'n aversie heb tegen Belle and Sebastian, maar keer op keer drijven ze me tot waanzin. Dat slome lijzige lamme gemekker. Bah.

Not keen.

high noise floor. so far i don't know why this is a must-listen album. In fact, I'm sure this isn't on ANY list. not good.

Moody 90's pop with cringeworthy singing. What could go wrong?!? 1/5

shite

No.

Not my thing.

So forgettable that when i woke up this morning I’d forgotten who the artist even was

Not my stuff

Try as I may, I couldn't find anything going for this album other than its cover

Didn't click with this at all. Not a fan of the vocal style and the songs didn't really take my interest. I assume they went on to write better stuff given their popularity but probably won't be checking it out.

Es rarisimo. Escuché 1000 cosas buenas de la banda y el disco y no me cerró en lo mas minimo. Que quieren ser? Simon y Garfunkel? Beck?. Discutible que pienses "bueno pero no tienen por que ser nadie" y tendrías razon, el tema es que si vas a tener una identidad propia que al menos sea una buena. No me produjo nada. Es raro. Es de esos discos que me tomaria la molestia de parar lo que estoy haciendo para sacarlo. Y no se por qué.

THBPBPTHPT! Can't I give less than one star?

Bland to my ear.

dont like

gay, kinda Ok guitar so far, Cant stand it

not for me

Idk
