The Coral by The Coral

Really surprised this is in the list

This was such an unexpected and fun album. I didn't have my expectation high after looking at the cover but I'm glad I listened to it.

Veckatimest by Grizzly Bear

Very surprised to see this on the list and to know how many years ago it was released.

evermore by Taylor Swift

Liked it more than I thought I would, drags on for a bit though. I enjoyed having it in the background

Apr 15 2021

Wasn't expecting much, there were some songs that stood out and made the album better only to be brought down by some popular ones

The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy
Apr 28 2021

Some good songs but it is not something I would listen to on a regular basis, the music made me anxious.

Apr 29 2021

This was such an unexpected and fun album. I didn't have my expectation high after looking at the cover but I'm glad I listened to it.

Homework by Daft Punk

Not their best

Low-Life by New Order
May 04 2021

Not as polished as their other albums but still very solid

May 05 2021

Pretty much what I expected, not something I would listen to regularly but I understand why it is influential.

Colour By Numbers by Culture Club
May 06 2021

A few good tunes and very popish in a good way

Let England Shake by PJ Harvey

May 21 2021
Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
May 24 2021

Bob is not one of those artists that I listen to very frequently but that I quite enjoy when I do.

Rip It Up by Orange Juice
May 27 2021

Very interesting listen, have never heard of this band before and I found it quite enjoyable. Seems that their sound inspired a few of the newer bands of that region.

The Holy Bible by Manic Street Preachers
May 31 2021

I wasn't enjoying it at first but it then just kind of kept growing on me. Will have to listen to it again.

Jun 01 2021

Brothers by The Black Keys
Sep 01 2021
Siembra by Willie Colón & Rubén Blades
Sep 10 2021
BEYONCÉ by Beyoncé
Sep 17 2021

Better than expected, having only listening to some of the singles. Some good vibes and tunes but overall just, not something I would repeat.

Veckatimest by Grizzly Bear
Sep 20 2021

Very surprised to see this on the list and to know how many years ago it was released.

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
Sep 21 2021

One of those bands that would be legends if they had a different singer. The album is still great though, closer. High 3, closer to 4 so that's why I'm rounding up.

Metallica by Metallica
Oct 08 2021

The album has been trendy lately due to it getting remastered and having a wide array of weird selections covering it. The album is good but not top Metallica.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Oct 11 2021
Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Oct 29 2021

I'm a jazz person. Miles Davis, John Coltrane, the list could go on

Led Zeppelin II by Led Zeppelin
Nov 02 2021

Would be even better if Moby Dick lasted more than 20 mins

Apocalypse Dudes by Turbonegro
Nov 03 2021

Fun album. I discovered this band because of Wildboyz (Jackass spin-off) and never expected them to be on this list.

Risque by CHIC
Nov 04 2021

The second song made me cringe so hard.

Ten by Pearl Jam
Nov 18 2021

Easy 5

Be by Common

Rio by Duran Duran
Nov 25 2021
1984 by Van Halen
Dec 02 2021
Remain In Light by Talking Heads
Dec 09 2021

I always enjoy listening to the Talking Heads, I just kind of don't do it enough

Darklands by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Dec 16 2021
Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Dec 21 2021
evermore by Taylor Swift
Dec 24 2021

Dec 30 2021
Dust by Screaming Trees
Jan 17 2022

Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield
Jan 24 2022

Interesting at times but also very tedious

Cross by Justice
Feb 09 2022

Made me like electronic music

Smash by The Offspring
Mar 18 2022
Modern Kosmology by Jane Weaver

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Mar 29 2022

May 02 2022

Good but also very overrated

Casanova by The Divine Comedy
May 05 2022

Had some good songs and some not got at all

The Bends by Radiohead
May 09 2022

Such a change after Pablo Honey, this is where they started being awesome

Heaux Tales by Jazmine Sullivan
May 11 2022

Surprised this is on the list. I just found it bland.

Dig Me Out by Sleater-Kinney
May 12 2022

A few interesting songs but nothing particularly great.

May 17 2022

Great album, their hits do get a little annoying as they still get played a lot. I'm more of a fan of their later works (Little Dark Age) though.

Gentlemen by The Afghan Whigs
May 19 2022

The music was good but the vocals were unimpressive. I've never heard of the band yet they are described as "one of the most critically acclaimed alternative bands of the early '90s"

Tigermilk by Belle & Sebastian
May 20 2022

I think you have to be in the mood to enjoy this, it's not something that you can play anytime. It's good though.

A Seat at the Table by Solange
May 27 2022

Good album, I don't get much of the hate on the reviews. It's quite enjoyable, do I think it belongs on the list? No.

Madman Across The Water by Elton John
May 30 2022

I only knew a song from the album. The rest was pretty interesting.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Jun 01 2022
Either Or by Elliott Smith
Jun 02 2022

Haunting

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Jun 07 2022

Not what I expected from the Boss, kind of surprised

Jun 09 2022

Surprisingly very good, I really enjoyed it

Shaft by Isaac Hayes
Jun 10 2022

Groovy

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Jun 15 2022

I had a hard time accepting that I liked the Smiths and can never go back.

Drunk by Thundercat
Jun 17 2022

Can't understand the hate in the reviews. Easy 5.

1989 by Taylor Swift
Jun 21 2022

Not very interesting, unlike evermore which was more enjoyable

Being There by Wilco
Jun 22 2022

Will surely relisten

Nixon by Lambchop
Jul 13 2022

Haven't heard of the band, quite enjoyable album

xx by The xx
Jul 20 2022
Play by Moby
Jul 21 2022

Some bangers but the album does drag on a bit too much

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Jul 22 2022
At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Aug 03 2022

San Quentin was better and had a better crowd. Don't know why they needed 2 of the same type of albums in the list.

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Aug 04 2022

I prefer his debut but this is still pretty good

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Aug 05 2022

Weird and very weird at times but was kind of interesting.

Armed Forces by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Aug 16 2022
Hejira by Joni Mitchell
Aug 18 2022
The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Aug 30 2022

One of the albums I loved as a teen and that might still be in my parent's house. I didn't remember most of the songs and can't give it a 5 because of some not very good ones.

Tommy by The Who
Sep 16 2022
Pearl by Janis Joplin
Sep 23 2022
Imagine by John Lennon
Sep 27 2022
Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Sep 30 2022

Pixies are one of those bands I'm supposed to like for some reason but I just can't get into them, other than a few songs.

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Oct 03 2022

So that's where the Luis Miguel song comes from!

GREY Area by Little Simz
Oct 04 2022

I've only heard of her because of Gorillaz and didn't think much of that song then. I enjoyed parts of the album but I'm still trying to figure out why it's on the list.

Debut by Björk
Oct 11 2022
Dirt by Alice In Chains
Oct 14 2022
Synchronicity by The Police
Oct 17 2022

Mother killed this album

Heroes by David Bowie
Oct 18 2022

Mother killed this album

Mott by Mott The Hoople
Oct 26 2022

Weird that this album is on the list. Tries to sound like Bowie at times, glad I'm not the only one that noticed it

Hysteria by Def Leppard
Oct 31 2022

Not as bad as I thought would be

The Sun Rises In The East by Jeru The Damaja
Nov 09 2022

I've never heard of this album or the artist. I was pleasantly surprised.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Nov 21 2022

Funeral and Neon Bible are something else

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Nov 22 2022

The first part is LOADED with great songs, it gets a little weak after Porcelain. Overall pretty solid album.

Scott 2 by Scott Walker
Nov 25 2022

Ok I guess

Low by David Bowie
Nov 28 2022
Coles Corner by Richard Hawley
Dec 22 2022

Nice and cozy but also kind of forgettable.

C'est Chic by CHIC
Dec 26 2022

Some interesting grooves but each song feels very long

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Feb 06 2023

Cheesy at times but still pretty good

Goo by Sonic Youth
Feb 22 2023

A few good songs but most of the album is hardly listenable

The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground
Feb 23 2023

Got this back to back with 'Goo'. This one is a little bit better. I don't get most of the songs though.

Made In Japan by Deep Purple
Feb 28 2023

It's good, but would rather have the LP

Trio by Dolly Parton
Mar 01 2023

Ok

Why

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath

Mar 16 2023
Country Life by Roxy Music
Mar 17 2023

Mar 20 2023

I've always found them a bit dull, some good songs here and there but I just don't know why they are regarded as being great

In Our Heads by Hot Chip
Mar 21 2023

Poppy and catchy, I dig it but don't love it. Close 4

Viva Hate by Morrissey
Mar 22 2023

He's good at music, people shouldn't hate him for other stuff

Copper Blue by Sugar
Mar 23 2023

Bland, seems like the mixing didn't age well at all

Medúlla by Björk
Mar 24 2023

Kind of hard to listen to. I was tempted to give it a 2 but there were some interesting bits.

21 by Adele
Mar 27 2023

Music and vocals are there, but it just feels kind of dull. Probably IA generated?

Boston by Boston
Mar 30 2023

Great dad rock

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Mar 31 2023

Great album but not my favorite by them

Violator by Depeche Mode
Apr 03 2023

Just great selection of songs

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Apr 04 2023

Give them another 5 already

Sister by Sonic Youth
Apr 05 2023

Not as weird as some of their other records but still not that good either

Rocks by Aerosmith
Apr 12 2023
A Short Album About Love by The Divine Comedy
Apr 13 2023

More enjoyable than the other album in the list by him, not sure if there are any others or if having any of them in the list is appropriate.

Orbital 2 by Orbital
May 17 2023

Some interesting parts but overall quite long and uninteresting

The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter by The Incredible String Band

Best part was when the album ended and Spotify played Nick Drake after

Jun 27 2023
Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Aug 17 2023

Sex Machine aside, I think the album was a great listen

Rings Around The World by Super Furry Animals
Aug 22 2023

Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
Aug 28 2023

It's ok but it feels very long

Let Love Rule by Lenny Kravitz
Aug 29 2023

Ugh, why is this on the list?
