Ghosteen

bro.

Did not enjoy

This might NEARLY take the record of worst album on this list for me, but I have had some slightly worse ones then this. There is nothing worse then spoken word albums, NOTHING

What? Apparently spoken word is popular in this list.

Maybe the most boring album so far. Might work as a movie sound track. As an album boring af

I'm sure that this is a deeply personal, heartfelt album for Nick Cave given the death of his son, but it is just too morose for me.

Wow I hated this. Here are a list of better and more relevant albums from 2019 that won’t be on here but should have been in this ones place: Vampire Weekend, ‘Father of the Bride’, Lana Del Rey, ‘Norman Fucking Rockwell!’, Ariana Grande, “Thank U, Next”, Brittany Howard, ‘Jaime’.

What utter dross, nick cave has a couple of good hits, but that was dire listening!

Not my cup of tea

I really hated this. Didn't get it at all. For something so emotional the music was devoid of feeling.

Oof. This was like listening to beat poetry from someone whose mother should have told them they couldn't sing, all lumped on top of lackluster instrumentals.

If you want Nick Cave, you'll get it. Sounds like Waits sings Cohen (or simmilar). No need to be heard before I die :-(

Worst album ever

Background music is good. With the lyrics included, the album appears to be best for those in mourning.

nope

Didn’t really enjoy it, not a huge fan of his vocals. There’s some interesting lyricism and harmonies, but overall I was not a fan.

schönes Cover (,sehr), Musik gepflegt, ruhig, langweilig

To weird for me. Didn’t like it

Horrible.

Absolute mindless drivel. Shame on anyone for adding it to this list. It was effectively BAD spoken word poetry, with weird music in the background.

Another Nick Cave album? No thanks.

Hated. Too ethereal// taking music too seriously.

“Nick Cave presents: all of his albums plus a few more you need to hear before you die”

Super boring

Previously rated: Murder Ballads (3/5) ************************* There has been some bullshit on this list, but this album takes the cake. Hated every single minute of this dull, boring, silly pseudo-deep lyrics, garbage. I shouted many expletives at Mr. Cave while listening to this.

What is the deal with Nick Cave on this list? I don’t get it.

Slow and weird

Not just boring and repetitive, but also the two long form "songs towards the end were just bad. 1/5 Won't listen again

Interesting but to slow and melow for me, I can see the artistry

I’ve come to the realization that Nick Cave ain’t for me.

It’s interesting how Nick Cave had had so many albums on this must listen list but yet not one nickelback. I feel like the creator of this list is really missing what makes great music. The terribly sad style and lyrics didn’t make this any of the bit better. Listening to this was unappealing and boring. Just because something is sad doesn’t quite mean it’s good. This seriously made Nickelback seem like the Beatles. Give me a break. 1.8/10

Guess this album offers effective insomnia relief? (Also, 5th Nick Cave album to be served to me here, guess the curators here have a severe crush case)

Couldnt finish

Nope.

Slow, strange, and depressing. I guess I can see where it has its niche, it I don’t understand how it can be on any “greatest” lists. It’s reading, to slow ethereal chanting music. Listen again: no Purchase for my collection: no Favourite Song:

Idk maybe it’s just me but I feel like if you’ve made 17 albums you should be a bit better at this whole music thing.

A musical fun sponge. Couldn't finish it

Not for me

Not a fan at all.

The sound is as boring and pompous as its cover art.

I just couldn't get into this style of music. I respect what he's trying to do, but it didn't click with me.

usch och fy

This was already shown

Ghosteen is incredibly boring. Yes the lyrics are powerful, but the music and delivery of the lyrics are just very stale and boring. It does not really feel like this builds anywhere musically.

More like sleepy Nick and the Snooze Alarms

I've really enjoyed Nick Cave albums I have heard from much earlier in his career, but this album was so soft and slow and boring that the entire thing passed and I enjoyed literally none of it. Nothing I have been used to hearing from this act was present on this album.

zZz...

Very atmospheric but didn't make an impression.

It is ambient music and noise. There isn't really much singing as he just speaks the lyrics. Lyrically, it tries way to hard to be obscure. It is way took long as there was no need for a double album or for it to be 70 minutes long. I skipped songs as I just had enough. No need to revisit or listen to again.

Jeez

Oh fuck off. So much fucking Nick Cave, none of it that I actually ever want to hear. 1/5.

so the last nick cave album we had was some dirty grungy tunes with swagger and a snarl. thats the good nick cave. this isn't. the fact this album is about something so tragic makes it even harder to listen to. i can't actually think of a scenario where i would actively choose to dive in to the misery that is this album. anyone who does choose to listen to this album is a fucking pervert.

Nick Cave once came at me with a knife at my daughter's birthday party. He ruined the whole day. I'll never listen to his music.

Not sure what he was going for here, unless it was for something awful. If that was the intent, congrats. Challenging to even get through the whole thing.

Slow, quiet, background music. Every track sounded the same. "Singing" isn't very enjoyable. Basically poetry spoken over music.

Dogshit

Trying to keep an open mind on this one.. haven’t heard of this album even though it’s recent. Happy at least new albums are included. The spinning song- this song was just bizarre to me. Lyrics meh but outro was okay. Bright horses- simple but effective instrumental, just Sean really resonate as I don’t really have an experience with grief that way Waiting for you- actually sounds like a song, pretty good👍 Night raid- interesting instrumental but v strange metaphor Sun forest- actually just lofi ambient music to start the song lol. Meh other than that Galleon ship- interesting enough instrumental to support lyrics 👍 Ghosteen speaks-snorefest tbh Leviathan- this one is hard to listen to Ghosteen- 12 mins 🙃bridge is fantastic, but there is a whole lot of slog Fireflies- nick cave doesnt know what a photon is. Think lyrics are pretty good, but you’re just speaking them my dude Hollywood- 14 mins. V long, kisa story baffling This album is the first one where I had to do something else also for the sake of my sanity. Just not for me, I can’t relate to the grief. I don’t think for me the lyrics and the music caught me enough to truly connect me. Sure this is a good album, but I don’t have a discerning ear. 1/5

Dude sucks bad. Not sure how him or Waits have a career.

Like wtf, no way this is one of the 1001 albums you MUST listen to.... from what I can see, this band's best albums were in the 90s, this is a 2019 album... and you are trying to tell me it's a classic, a quintessential album. What the fuck is this list.

It's not the kind of music I like.

Unlistenable drivel.

What even is this? The lyrics are fantastic, but this is just way too nebulous to enjoy.

Not for me

Nick je t'en supplie, fais des trucs plus rock il est super chiant ton album

The album promised a lot at the beginning, but ended up being a very linear and boring album

Sorry, Mr. Cave. This one is not for me. The whole album is too slow. Very little variety. A bit too church-like for me as well.

A bit slow, maybe too arty for me. Didn't "enjoy" it

Zzzzzzx
