Exile On Coldharbour Lane

Alabama 3

3/5

2.5/5. It's the album that has the Sopranos theme... That should say enough about this music. Not for me, but I can see how some would enjoy this.

Loss

Mull Historical Society

2/5

Could not make it through this one. Drone-y vocals with instrumentals that make it worse. Certainly fits the time that this came out.

St. Louis To Liverpool

Chuck Berry

4/5

Classic, solid early rock and roll.

The Grass Is Blue

Dolly Parton

4/5

Solid, classic. Would not mind listening to this again.

Up To Here

The Tragically Hip

2/5

Not for me. It's not bad though.

Live in San Francisco

Thee Oh Sees

3/5

3.5/5. Very punk and loud (and good). I'm not always in the mood for this type of music, but this is good and is something I would come back to.

"Awaken, My Love!"

Childish Gambino

5/5

Very good. Glad someone added this. Listening to this with a closer ear, I feel there are some parallels to some of that early 70s funk (Funkadelic/Parliament). A lot of these songs just come up during my casual listening. I respect this album even more after listening to the whole thing.

You'd Prefer an Astronaut

Hum

2/5

Overall this is fine, really not something I give much thought to. I guess I can see how someone could like this, but honestly I don't think this is great. Don't project your bad 90s rock onto me.

Toxicity

System Of A Down

2/5

I respect your decision to add this to the list. Please respect my decision to not listen to this and rate it 2, as I don't like this type of music. Thank you.

Yeti

Amon Düül II

3/5

2.5/5. Not terrible, but not something I'll come back to. Perhaps the album cover raised my expectations.

Lemonade

Beyoncé

3/5

I feel like people really hyped this album when it came out. This is my first time listening to this, glad someone added it, as I would not listen to this on my own. I'm not sure if it's just aged poorly, or if this is not my style of music, but I didn't think this was anything special.

The Lonesome Crowded West

Modest Mouse

3/5

3.5/5. Modest Mouse has a lot of music - thank you for giving me a place to start. Overall I was not amazed by this, but it was fine (in a good way)

Gordon

Barenaked Ladies

2/5

This has to be a satirical add, right? I didn't enjoy this, and I don't even think it's objectively good. In fact, it's objectively bad. To each their own, I guess.

People Watching

Sam Fender

2/5

Overall boring and not something I'll want to listen to again. I'm glad someone submitted this because now I know I don't like Sam Fender (although I never heard of him before).

Alopecia

WHY?

2/5

Certainly different... and certainly not something I enjoyed. The lyrics are odd and not very good.

Transmissions

STARSET

1/5

Seriously? Not good, in fact, bad. It's like Linkin Park but way worse.

Eye

Robyn Hitchcock

2/5

Meh. It could be worse, but I'm not a fan.
