9/10. Was really enjoyable to listen to throughout, had a nice cat on the cover.

9/10. I like salsa music, but not usually enough that I can sit through 42 minutes of listening to it fairly actively. This had a lot more variety of sound than I am used to hearing in salsa, which is no doubt biased by me listening more closely to this, but still a very enjoyable album.

5/10. He immediately tells us to fasten our seatbelts, which I appreciate because I am tired of listening to rap albums that don't care about the listener's personal safety. Also listening to this for the first time after the MCU made Tony Stark a household name, but knowing that this is older than that made the constant references to Tony Starks and Ironman a bit surprising. I liked that the skits transitioned very smoothly into the following songs in this album. I kinda liked Back Like That, I suppose because it just sounds like a pop song. I also like how when he boasts about women, these women are often intelligent in addition to having great asses etc, which is pretty fun.

6/10. Still a better war album than Let England Shake

2/10. Probably the least wonderful rainbow I've experienced. It was like someone took the noise of unplugging your earbuds in the middle of a song and made that into a whole damn album. There are definitely some bits where there is a bit of an interesting beat going, but not enough to redeem it in my eyes.

Well, Everybody Wants to Rule the World is good of course, and Shout has some nostalgic value for me that makes up for the fact I don't really like the song. Head Over Heels was good too, and most songs were at least pleasant to listen to passively.

Overall liked it, sounded decent and interesting/goofy lyrics made up for the fact that it sounds pretty mopey throughout.

A pretty cool album, but definitely not something I'd listen to regularly. Has it's place though

Well, gotta give credit where credit is due for rhyming "parents" with "seance". There were parts of it I thought sounded good, but it just dragged on, and so much of it was just Kanye talking about how cool he was by all his cool names. Which isn't to say there weren't plenty of lyrically interesting sections, but I don't really want to investigate them enough to relisten. Tough call between a 2 and a three on this one, and it probably would have scored higher if it had been shorter.

The first song really gave me 70's sitcom theme song vibes. After that, it was kinda just like Earth, Wind, and Fire, but not as good. Probably wouldn't listen to it again, and none of the songs really stood out to me, but I liked it okay.

You know, I enjoy stupid edgy lyrics, so I could probably enjoy this if it weren't for the bits where they scream and it just sounds like it was recorded on my webcam microphone. Which is like, 90% of the album.

I really liked the way the music sounded, though there weren't a lot of songs that stood out to me. I definitely want to listen to it again when I am not trying to navigate seatac airport.

Pretty good listening, nothing really stood out to me.

Earth, Wind, and FIRE. I'd probably put it as more of a 4.5 if I could, but a 4 just seems miserly.

My senses were in less pain than in the case of Slipknot, yet my sensibilities were all the more injured for it.

Really cool sound.

Pleasant enough to listen to, but probably wouldn't bother with it a second time.

Not bad, but nothing really held me spellbound either.

I really liked this one. There were some sections that seemed a little bland, and it would have been nice to have more overarching themes, but it was still interesting as an album. A low 5 from me.

How come the album art is two trucks having sex? A couple songs were sort of fun, but I was always disappointed when a song would have a 30 second intro that sounded kinda wacky and different and then the song itself just sounded like everything else in the album.

Pretty boring. I don't usually say this, but the singer's voice started to wear on me a little.

Said some interesting things, and didn't overstay its welcome. Liked it enough that I want to relisten to it and think it over more

Not bad, but not very interesting

Felt a lot more like a concept album that I would've thought from the cover and the style, but while I liked the concept, I didn't love the music. 4 stars, good reminder not to be shitty to your spouse.

Why bother having lyrics if they are just going to be mixed super quiet so you can't hear them? Why bother listening to an album when you could just play one song on repeat, or just not play it in the first place?

Not too bad, though "What is Love?" was creepy as shit

I'd have to relisted to it to figure out what I didn't like about it, and I don't really want to

A low 5, and I like it slightly less than You Want it Darker, but also it's a little more chill to listen to which is nice. These albums are hard to judge because I can't get much of a feel for them if I listen to them while I do something else.

I thought there were a few songs that were quite good, but the album as a whole, less so. I don't know that long, slow songs are really Billy Joel's strong suit. Strongly considered giving it a 4 anyway

Some of the music was kinda nice, but the singing absolutely ruined all but a couple songs for me.

Didn't care much for some of the filler songs in the middle album, but there's still enough good stuff on here to merit at least a low 5, so I'll leave it at that.

Really enjoyed it, very laid back music. Considered giving it a high 4, but Spotify played a bunch of Steely Dan when the album ran out and that put me in a generous mood.

I really enjoyed this. I wish there were some shorter songs, and I wish the album cover wasn't so zoomed in on this guy's head. Otherwise, no complaints

I like me some Johnny Cash.

I didn't like the way she sang. Other parts were fine, but if I want an album to be over well before it is, it can be a high two at best.

Kinda painful to listen to, but not downright awful?

It definitely grew on me. Or maybe the first song was just trash. The songs felt very internally repetitive, but there was variety between the songs. Seriously considered giving it a 4

Pretty good.

I enjoyed it

Pretty good, but not really my type

Scrapes a passing grade. Not a bad sound, but a little boring especially by the end.

I enjoyed it a lot more than I was expecting for Michael Jackson. Still slow towards the middle, and I wouldn't want to hear most of these songs very often. A low 4

Enjoyable

Had some enjoyable songs, but not fabulous overall. Higher end of 3

Not the biggest fan of Michael Jackson, but he really is too hard on himself. He isn't really really bad.

Always hard to judge exactly how good an album is while I'm doing homework, but this one seemed quite good

A high 2, considered a 3, but honestly only the first song is much fun to listen to, and even it kinda overstays its welcome

High 3. Very strange as an album

Sounded nice, but kinda boring idk

Pretty fun

I liked the music, would have liked it better if they didn't mumble so many of the lyrics

Pretty enjoyable, with a couple of songs with some good nostalgia. And of course I can't be too critical of my namesake

I think if I listened to it more I'd probably like it better

Gotta say, there's not a great excuse for have a 72 minute Springsteen Album. But this album is an okay one, though there are several songs that are longer than they need to be, and have a bit of a dull premise that gets drawn out. Also not a huge fan of the use of backup singers, and I feel like his earlier albums have more emotion in the singing. Worlds Apart was interesting, but didn't quite work, which was disappointing. All that said, I listened to a lot of these songs growing up which has made me rather fond of them, and Mary's Place and The Rising were great, I especially liked how the latter tied back in with Empty Sky a bit. Overall scrapes a five, from me, though I doubt I'll give it another close listen.

What a strange album. I didn't really get into any of the songs, but it was pretty fun to listen to

8. Biased upward because cool battle Amarillo on the cover

8. had some good songs

7. I liked that one song that talked about dinosaurs and had some christian themes going on. Like, I didn't actually like the song but it was nice to think about dinosaurs

7.

5. Started out pretty good, but not much to recomend it after that

5. Some was kinda fun but nothing great

8. Solid album

"You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth" is honestly a really fun song, but the decision to include that first minute about offering your throat to the wolf was a very strange one indeed. 7.

Ugggh. So boring. 3.

6. Quite pleasant to listen to, but nothing to get very excited about either.

Compulsively put on chap stick every time I saw the album art. Accidentally listened on shuffle. Was okay, but not very memorable. 5?

Honestly I kinda already forgot what it was like to listen to in the last 8 hours. 5?

Pretty fun. Like a 7 or an 8. I'll go with a 7 though

7. Wanted to give a 6.9, but it's definitely on the high side of 7 so that would be unfair

6. There was definitely some interesting stuff going on, but it started to feel a little long and a little too chaotic

5. Started out okay. Didn't get any better.

The last song is just flailing around making annoying sounds like they think they're Pink Floyd or some shit. Overall I just didn't find it very interesting, and on top of that some songs were unpleasant to listen to. Like a 4 or a 5.

A lot of slow songs. Too many, even. 6.

Another pretty good album. Around a 7 or an 8.

7. Quite good, but I don't like Jazz enough for anything to really stand out to me about it

Like a low 7? Idk, didn't pay that close of attention because I was cooking

I quite liked this one. I think it scraped an 8, but we'll see how I'm feeling when I enter it into the spreadsheet. The singing was kinda annoying for bits

Another 7 where I considered an 8, but I just can't see myself ever wanting to relisten to this even though it was pretty fun the first time.

7. I liked it overall, but his singing annoyed me at times

5. They forgot an oxford comma

Another live album that is pretty darn fun, and doesn't overstay its welcome. Low 8.

Giving it a 9 for now, but I didn't really get to focus on it properly because I was playing with excel. Will revisit.

I actually really enjoyed it, but it would have been way better if the singing didn't sound the way it did. 7 I guess, wish I could justify rating it higher, but I just can't see myself wanting to relisten to it

9/10. Thought I'd rated this already, but this was an excellent album. Good length, and fun songs that don't drag on.

7

10. Considered a 9, because Donald Fagen really is only half the man Steely Dan is

6. Does a great job being angry and edgy and all that, and sounds far better than I expected, but still not my favorite by a long shot

7. Maybe an 8, didn't listen that intently, might come back to it at some point to see

Not bad. 7

6. Some interesting songs, but too fucking long

7. Good for what it was, didn't excite me

Pretty enjoyable. Got a nice sound, but might be nice if they had more than the one of them. Low 8.

5. Would have given a 6 on account of being impressed by how good it sounded for what it was, but the length got in the way of that, and the fact that many of the sounds were just annoying.

Low 8 overall. The first half was great, even if the songs sounded kind of similar. But the second half was a lot weaker, and there wasn't even really a strong ending. Should have probably been shorter.

5. I can't take the beach boys seriously enough to listen to them talk about the current events of the past

3. Well, I can see why it is good, but at the same time it felt a bit Korny, and was just unpleasant for me to listen to. Also way too long.

4. First song was pretty good, but really nothing to write home about after that, and it was quite long.

7. First song was pretty good, not much else to write home about.

Pretty good, didn't listen super attentively thought. 7, but might have been a little better

7. Coloring book doesn't fit in well to an iambic meter, and this album has not convinced me otherwise.

Kinda sounded cool for parts, but very long and some sections just sounded like headache. 5.

Just sounded really nice. 8/10, may listen to again.

8/10, solid album, and I especially like that it is not super samey throughout. After much reflection, I did find that the singing on the last song really reminded me of the bit in Elf where the main gal sings in the shower.

8/10, pretty enjoyable, another good Elvis Costello album

8/10. Good length, and very engaging throughout

I really love Bob Dylan's songwriting, and particularly the more narrative songs. It does a lot to offset a very samey singing/musical style that starts to drag on for such a long album. Gets a 9/10 because it still has a good number of strong songs on it, but I probably wouldn't listen to it straight through again.

Narrowly a 10/10. A couple really good songs, and none that let the album down. And while it's not the most exciting or emotional music, it just sounds really good. Except maybe the bits where he inhales in "Girl". And it's a very reasonable length for the style of music.

I'm not always that into Bowie, but I think this album was a 10. Had a fun concept that was tied into a good amount, Starmanis a classic, and there were no songs that felt particularly weak.

4/10. Okay, this album was really long, and fairly annoying. Not so annoying that it distracted me from homework, but it made it a bit less pleasant. The first and last songs were both kinda cool, and even more annoying than the rest of it.

7/10. Might even have been a bit higher, it felt a little bit more interesting than some of the other Reggae albums we've had.

Incredibly stupid, pretty fun. I do think the Beastie Boys are better when you don't listen to an entire album at once though.

2/10. The music wasn't very interesting, the songwriting was boring, and the lead singer sounded like a Muppet on the verge of a psychotic break. Not for me.

7/10. I am terrible at rating Jazz type stuff, but didn't seem as interesting as some of the others we have had.

8. Pretty good.

I dunno, 7? Pretty long

7/10. The singing started out more annoying than usual, but seemed fine later on.

9/10. Was really enjoyable to listen to throughout, had a nice cat on the cover.

8/10. Pretty good, but nothing super exciting

4/10. Some songs sounded alright, even rather interesting, others just sounded painful

7/10. Some good songs, some weird songs, nothing that really calls me back to it.

9/10. A couple of really good songs, and some other pretty good ones. My one complaint is that I really would have like "I Can't Stand the Rain" way more were it not for the weird sounds that reminded me of the Ghostbusters theme and really killed the mood.

6/10. Alright, dated but not in a bad way, nothing exciting.

7/10. birb. Their version of Wild Mountain Thyme was a bit lame, actually

7/10. Weird choice to put a vertically stretched picture of Mike from Stranger Things on the cover. Fairly enjoyable album, but didn't have much of the excitement that live albums often have, and Like a Rolling Stone and Desolation row were the only stand-out songs in my opinion.

5/10. I just couldn't get into this much, felt a bit dull, and dragged on a while.

7/10. Honestly I enjoyed most of this. First song sucked, I don't know that I'd relisten to much of it, but kinda weird kinda fun

6/10. Seemed fairly bland, but I was not paying the closest attention.

6/10.

7/10. Very solid album throughout, I especially liked the guest appearance of a chorus of frogs.

7/10. Not quite my thing, but some cool sounds to be sure

5/10. Pretty forgettable I guess, because I already don't remember it.

8/10. Wasn't sure what to expect, but worked out to be quite good, if a bit strange

8/10. Got better as I went. The sexy interlude almost made me want to give it a 9, because it was amusing.

Like a 7. At first I figured this was on there because there was one good song on it, then there were some other good songs. Not really my thing, but it was a good length and had fun energy

4/10 Mind-numbingly mediocre.

7/10. Maybe deserved an 8 as it was definitely quite good, but it did get a bit samey listening to the whole thing, and it's not really my style.

6/10. Good but forgettable

8/10. Giving this the benefit of the doubt as I didn't get a very clear listen due to having my windows rolled down on the freeway to combat the lack of AC. What I could hear of it sounded pretty cool though, and I expect I'll come back to this later.

7/10. Pretty good I guess, might want to give it a relisten without talking over it

3/10. Debated between 3 and 4, but looking at the other threes I've given, this seems reasonable. This album just felt very long and dull, and while it wasn't bad song to song persay, it's not really for me, or at least not for 80 minutes all at once.

7/10. Tricky one to rate, but had an interesting concept, and was refreshingly different from a lot of the stuff on this list.

4/10. Bit boring, and opening with a song with the lyric "I fell in love with a slit-eyed lady / By the light of an eastern moon" made it feel pretty dated if nothing else.

6/10. Pretty good, nothing too special doesn't seem.

9/10. Really quite good. Possibly could bump it up to a 10 on a relisten.

6/10. Funny for bits, but not a big fan

4/10. Not awful, but nothing stood out to me as being especially good.

5. Seems like a fairly good Nirvana album, but can't say I love Nirvana.

7. Might need to relisten since I did this across multiple stints of driving and navigating, but it seemed pretty good but nothing stood out

6/10. Sounded fine, just wasn't too interesting to me. Kinda like all the other PJ Harvey albums I've heard.

7/10. Hard to judge well because it definitely sounded better when I didn't listen on my car speakers, but I didn't hear much that interested me. Giving it the 7 over the 6 on benefit of the doubt since it did sound nice.

8/10 I guess, really pleasant ambient music. But still ambient music, so not the most exciting listen.

6/10. Sounded good in it's own way, but not really something I would listen to on purpose

6/10.

6/10

5/10. Damn, I forgot to review this after listening to it and I pretty much forgot what it was like. Not a great sign since that was less than a week ago. Relistening to a couple songs, 5/10 seems fair.

7/10. Not really my style, but it does feel very well put together as an album, and was lyrically interesting enough to make me at least want to keep listening. There were only a few songs that I enjoyed listening to in their own right, and I still didn't quite love the sound, but overall a positive experience.

6/10. I guess not the most generic rock we've heard, but overall the singing is meh, and the instrumentals are good but not good enough to justify the lengths of the instrumental sections. Elevation's similarity to Californication weirded me out.

7/10. Nothing to write home about, but had a good sound, and a few pretty good songs as well.

8/10. I can see why people think this inspired Tommy. Certainly the albums start similarly enough, but this one manages to be even more depressing, which is an achievement in itself. I'm never as much a fan of Rock Operas that can't tell their stories too well with lyrics alone, but that doesn't entirely apply here because I am pretty sure the story is more just a series of unfortunate events with no strong connective tissue.

3/10. Much too long to listen to this whole album. The music itself wasn't terrible, but was a bit too frantic to be great background music, and a bit to samey to listen to actively.

3/10.

8/10. Pretty good, I see why I had to learn about this guy in French class

4/10, was much too long. Milky Cereal was pretty funny, and generally liked the bits where the lyrics were just dumb jokes, which was most of it. But, it wasn't funny enough or interesting enough to work for a whole hour. I don't know that I agree with the reviewer here who thinks LL Cool J played Warhammer in high school, but I'll bet he at least did all the assigned readings in English class, like even when they were Jane Austen.

7/10. I quite like this, just a super chill, straightforward brand of rock, the lyrics are hit or miss and the singing is decent. Honestly, my main complaint is that they really like to delay rhymes from when you expect to hear them, which always irritates me

7/10, sounds nice enough, but kinda boring. Mumbley lyrics. I got it into my head that he kept starting lines in Cheerleader with "I shitted" and while logic tells me that it is probably "I shouldn't", I couldn't really unhear it. Would be pushing a 6 if I wasn't pretty sure I heard a frog in the background of "I live with you" for like 3 seconds.

8/10. This album is all over the place, but generally in a good way. I was not a big fan of "Scorpio". "You Are" was almost like a slow bit of an Earth, Wind, and Fire song. "The Message" was great, but "The Adventures of Grandmaster Flash on the Wheel of Steel" was mostly just annoying, which is sad because it had such a fun name.

6/10. The cover art is kind of funny though. Good sound, but nothing to write home about.

6/10. I really wish I didn't dislike how Tom Wait sounds so much, because I like his songwriting. That said, this album sounds a lot more chaotic and unpleasant right off the bat than Heartattack and Vine was, and the songs are more all over the place. "Who Are You This Time", and "A Little Rain" are pretty good though. If there was anything that would justify how bad some of this sounds it would be the lyric "In the colosseum, we call 'em as we see 'em". Honestly this is growing on me as I listen through it. "I Don't Wanna Grow Up" is nice too.

5/10. I wish Metal albums weren't always so long. This has probably been the most enjoyable one I've listened to so far, but I still don't want to listen to it for over an hour. It just starts to feel so bland. Maybe I just need to listen to it louder?

6/10. Weird that there was a duet about missing the good old days when they were living in a whorehouse.

5/10. He immediately tells us to fasten our seatbelts, which I appreciate because I am tired of listening to rap albums that don't care about the listener's personal safety. Also listening to this for the first time after the MCU made Tony Stark a household name, but knowing that this is older than that made the constant references to Tony Starks and Ironman a bit surprising. I liked that the skits transitioned very smoothly into the following songs in this album. I kinda liked Back Like That, I suppose because it just sounds like a pop song. I also like how when he boasts about women, these women are often intelligent in addition to having great asses etc, which is pretty fun.

6/10. Pretty okay, I guess.

7/10. I'm sorry, but I think "That Lady" is a bit annoying. Overall I liked the style of the album though.

6/10. Liked it more than I've liked a lot of the punk/punk rock stuff on this list, but at the end of the day it is still a bit too frantic and edgy to be particularly pleasant to listen to.

8/10. Really chill, and pleasant to listen to. Had some fairly interesting instrumental sections. Lyrics were present when they needed to be, and were well written when they were present.

4/10. I will admit, it was better than the Wikipedia article made it sound. But you know, I really didn't need some guy talking into my left ear for 8 minutes straight about some hopeless romantic, and honestly it was a bit of a cop-out to just have him die at the end. Similarly with the 17 minute song at the end, except I couldn't even be bothered to follow the story of this one, though I did figure out that she was busy sucking on his ding dong, because the singer said so about every 30 seconds. I'd be inclined to say the album was fairly good if it weren't for these two songs, except that these two songs are 65% of the album.

5/10. How Does It Feel? Bad, because I swear the sound of this song is designed to give me a headache. Aside from that song though, which gets better after the first 5 minutes or so, the rest of the album sounds good enough, but I found parts of it a little dull.

7/10. I didn't have super high expectations for an hour long electronic album, but I never really found myself disliking this one. There were bits where it felt a bit repetitive, sure, but not so long as to be unpleasant. That said, there were also no stand-out moments that make me want to rate it above a 7, so here I stand.

9/10. Quite good. Hooting and Howling and This is Our Lot stood out to me, but all of the songs had unique sounds to them that made listening to the album engaging throughout.

8/10. It is good to see that if 2 hours is not infinite enough for you, the 6 hour deluxe version is available on Spotify. This is a good, angsty album, and like seemingly all angsty albums, it is very long. But I suppose if you only have 30 minutes worth of angst to sing about you might just release a cheerful album instead. But I digress. The point is, this album is very long for not having a stronger theme to tie it together. The wikipedia article says that the band wanted to make an album like The Wall, but they seemingly forgot that The Wall is both shorter and has a central theme/story to tie everything together. Still, the length is partly excused by how different individual songs are. I did not realize, and would never have expected that Bullet With Butterfly Wings and 1979 were on the same album. I don't really know where I'm going with this stream of consciousness review, but I figure if you had time to listen to this album you have time to listen to me ramble. Overall positive experience, probably won't listen all the way through again, at least not for quite a while.

6/10. A few of the songs were fairly amusing, which made up for the fairly bland music, but there it is not amusing enough to be especially memorable.

5/10. Pleasant background music, but boring.

7/10. I can't quite pin down what it sounds like, but it sounded familiar, and I liked it.

9/10. Stream of consciousness review below, but this was a really enjoyable album. Or two albums. Or whatever it was. Going to start keeping track of the weirdest alcoholic drink to be mentioned in an album, and this is winning so far with Butterscotch Schnapps (in Bowtie), which it sounded like was either being drunk straight, or combined with Bailey's. As someone with poor short term memory, it is really helpful they say Speakerboxxx every 10 minutes or so to remind me what I am listening to, it's like I'm watching Disney Channel. Rhyming "nasty hoes" with "pistachios" was a stroke of genius. Also had the most fun song about church that I have heard. It's weird to see a featured artist whose name I recognize, and weirder still that I only recognize the name because she is the live-action Ahsoka actress. Hey Ya is spectacular, of course, and it surprised me how much slower The Love Below feels in general compared to Speakerboxxx and Hey Ya. Repeating "age ain't nothin but a number" at the start of Pink and Blue got me thinking about that my great aunt flirting with one of my friends at my grad party, which distracted from the rest of the song. Dracula's Wedding is cool though. Would not have thought a 5 minute instrumental cover of My Favorite Things could be that enjoyable.

6/10. A strong British accent does make bad sex jokes about 20% funnier, which brings this up from a 5/10. I think it might have been more enjoyable if I'd been able to focus on it a bit more, because I could tell there were some jokes that I missed, but I don't think that would bring the rating significantly higher.

7/10. I feel like these guys listened to some metal music and were like "Wow, what if we made something like this but made it occasionally sound good?" I enjoyed most of these songs, Epic and War Pigs stood out as things I have heard before.

4/10. I feel like they're just making noise for the sake of it being loud. I couldn't distinguish much between the songs, or even pick out many of the words the singer shouted at me. That said, they do a fairly good job of making noise.

9/10. Was stuck between a 9 and an 8 on this one, but I am feeling generous today, and if something stands out to me as good while I am working, that's a good sign. Shadowboxing was a good track, and I remember liking Sullen Girl as well, but I wasn't paying as much attention to what track I was listening to later on, but everything was pretty solid.

10/10. There wasn't a miss on here. Young Americans is a classic, and the rest ranged from solid to excellent. I'm skeptical that there needed to be 9 Bowie albums in this list, but so far so good

6/10. I can already tell they are going to be one of the bands that is thoroughly enamored with the idea that they can send sounds to just one side of my headphones if they want. The lyrics were certainly did not stand out as good, and indeed stood out as pretty uninspired and dull quite often, but it did sound pretty good throughout.

8/10. I really liked this once I got into it. This album just gives off major singing skeleton vibes, the Marimba combined with the hoarse singing, and the depressing lyrics just added up to a skeleton playing music on his ribcage as he wiles away eternity. That said, if I was a cursed skeleton captain of a pirate ship, I would play this constantly. In a weird way, a lot of these songs remind me of Springsteen as well, just his voice is rougher.

6/10. I do enjoy this music, but I can't take it seriously, and as an album, 45 minutes of it is a lot because it all sounds roughly identical. Now, there is the plus side that each song usually tells a fun little story. The Master's Call's lyrics almost feel like a parody, but I am pretty sure this is meant to be sincere: "My wicked past unfolded, I thought of wasted years / When another bolt of lightning killed a hundred head of steers" Or better yet: "I will weep like the willow that weeps in the valley"

6/10. Not especially memorable, but sounded pleasant throughout. Possibly one to visit and to revise scoring on in the future.

9/10. Like a Rolling Stone and Desolation Row are fantastic, the rest was largely enjoyable, but nothing stood out especially from the middle section. I think Blood on the Tracks was a little bit better, but I am not sure if it is a whole number score better or not.

8/10. Solid album overall, with a few stand out classics like Sloop John B

5/10. Fairly boring as best as I could tell

7/10. Had some really fun moments, but an entire album-length session of listening to their voices is a lot.

4/10. This sounded pretty samey, and was rather boring to boot.

8/10. Led Zeppelin all kind of blends together for me, but in a pretty positive way.

7/10. Sounds good, but in a really boring way. Without the vocals this would make a fantastic video game soundtrack, but it's too slow for me to want to just listen to it.

3/10. Pretty sure this gave me an ear infection

8/10. Well, I can certainly see how this one was influential. Overall I liked it, it had a nice, peaceful but sorrowful sound to it, and while the album would have been more interesting if it varied from that a bit more, it would have ruined the mood.

9/10. This was pretty good. He has a nice voice. Beginning of Super Rich Kids had me worried because it sounded like Benny and the Jets for a moment.

8/10. This is definitely on the jazzy side of jazz-rock, in that it really just felt like jazz with some guitars thrown in. The singing was probably the biggest thing holding it back for me, as the lyrics and delivery just felt emotionless when they were present. But, I was also listening to this at work and didn't get the opportunity for a super close listen.

8/10. Feels quite enjoyable on a first listen, but I am not sure if it is something that will start to bug me if I relisten, or if I'll grow to like it more. Always fun when the 5th song on an album spontaneously decides to be half in French-as-a-second-language. Hidden tracks don't work well on Spotify at all.

6/10. Glad to see that sometimes people do name a song, an album, and their band all the same thing. Pleasant enough to listen to, but it really slipped into the background a lot.

10/10. You can't buy a thrill, but it would be thrilling to buy this album. I think Do It Again is one of the more overrated Steely Dan songs, but I have no right to be salty that people enjoy this more than I do, and this is still a good tune to have come on at the grocery store. Dirty work is a fairly drastic mood swing from Dirty Work, and this is pretty common for the album which I think is why I rarely listen to it through, even though I listen to all the songs a lot. Kings, then, jumps back into the more energetic, sarcastic mood of the first song. The we get to Midnite Cruiser which is one of my favorites form this album. The chorus is so catchy, and the lyrics so savory, and broken up into these delightful little bite-sized lines when sung. Next, we have Only a Fool Would Say That, which is where we first get to a Steely Dan song with pretty much nonsense lyrics. I'm not sure what "Of salads and sun" is supposed to mean, and thought for the longest time he was singing "Of Saladin's son" which also doesn't make sense. Still a pretty fun little song. Reelin' in the Years is probably what a lot of people would call the most overrated Steely Dan song, but honestly this song is just spectacular. The only reason I can see to resent it's popularity is that it has spawned multiple live versions now, and both of the one's I know of don't sound right. I love how the lyrics just seem to fall, almost jumbled, out of his mouth, as if the narrator's world is rapidly falling apart. Fire in the Hole is my least favorite from this album, but I've been told that I clearly just hate Pianists. Brooklyn still makes very little sense to me lyrically, but it is a real pretty song. Change of the Guard makes a fun change of pace, but isn't really a stand-out song in my opinion. And then Turn That Heartbeat Over Again is a very sporadic, yet extremely catchy song that sort of reflects the album as a whole with its jumps between fast and slow lyrics occurring line-to-line, but still all fitting together real nice.

8/10. I quite liked a few tracks from this, but as an album it has some boring stretches. The intro to "I Want You Now" just sounds like an overdramatic person inflating a paddleboard. And "Pleasure, Little Treasure" is a bonus track, but it was a lot more fun than most of the album. I can't quite decide if I like the Route 66 cover, but the occasional panting in the background does not help it out.

8/10. I'm hearing a lot more circus than bread in the first track, but maybe the lyrics I don't understand balance that out. Overall a fun album to listen to, I like that they changed up the pace a lot.

9/10. I like salsa music, but not usually enough that I can sit through 42 minutes of listening to it fairly actively. This had a lot more variety of sound than I am used to hearing in salsa, which is no doubt biased by me listening more closely to this, but still a very enjoyable album.

9/10. I like Cat Stevens.

4/10. I like that the lyrics are fairly funny from time to time, even forgetting that they just sample a shit ton of kung fu sound effects. Still wouldn't ever want to listen all the way through again, and there were no particular tracks I'd want to come back to either. Certainly wasn't bad, but I didn't care for it much.

7/10. Interesting to hear from a rap group that was against reclaiming the N-word. I really don't need the blaring noises in alternating ears in "One Million Bottlebags". "Bring Tha Noize" is an oddly fun note to end on considering how intense the social/political critique got towards the middle, but I'm not going to complain.

5/10. Meh

8/10. Very energetic, lots of fun to listen to

5/10. They seem oddly self aware about song length. Like all of the songs that extended much longer than 2 minutes did so because they were a bit better than the rest of the album. Still pretty meh from where I'm standing though.

6/10. Pretty decent metal album, but I wish all metal albums didn't insist on being an hour long.

9/10. This album keeps things short and sweet, which is always refreshing after a metal album.

8/10. I was working while I listened to this, so that could have distracted me from any boring sections, but I really enjoyed this album. The 20 minute extended performances of some of the songs worked out the be pretty enjoyable to listen to.

4/10. The second song was pretty annoying. Wait, I think that might just be the whole album. The songs are so long and repetitive. The ones that are just instrumentals are actually alright, but nothing super exciting. Overall not my favorite, but nothing that stands out as awful

7/10. Pretty revolutionary to take punk music and merge it with genres that sound good. I can see how it was influential.

8/10. Quite enjoyable for the most part some songs were a fair bit better than others

7/10.

5/10. Pretty boring

4/10. I almost liked the cover of Highway '61 Revisited, but overall after four albums of PJ Harvey, I am just glad to be Rid of Her.

7/10. The album cover really made me think I was going to dislike this. Honestly I probably would have liked it a bit less if there hadn't been some familiar songs that helped me get into it a bit more.

7/10. I guess this album is so early in Tom Waits' career he hadn't figured out he could make his voice sound really raspy and awful yet. That said, I don't enjoy it lyrically as much either. Still I think the fake jazz club setting is kinda fun overall

5/10. I do not want to hear the words Tran Europe Express chanted at me ever again. Based on the title, I would have thought metal on metal would have been the most grating sounding song, but actually one of the more pleasant because I didn't have to listen to them chanting some bullshit. Still, looking past the speaking bits, the music was pretty enjoyable.

9/10. Actually I really enjoyed parts of this while sitting in traffic, it must be solid.

6/10. Pretty enjoyable for what it is, but I am glad it was short.

8/10. Enjoyable, quick songs. Rather samey, but doesn't drag on.

9/10. Had a few very good songs, and then some others that just blended into a pleasant background. I especially liked The Boxer.

4/10. They talk very Bri'ish loike. I liked XR2, Paper Planes would have been good if I hadn't heard it so many damn times on the radio. But most of the songs I was not a big fan of, and the runtime exaggerated this.

6/10. Pleasant, but dull

5/10. Pretty decent, but a little boring. Might have been more enjoyable if I paid more attention, or it might have just dragged on longer.

6/10. Might be worth a 7. Liked about every other song, but several annoyed me a bit

7/10. Pretty good.

6/10. Forgettable.

7/10. Pretty enjoyable

8/10. Pretty good overall, as per usual only a few songs stood out to me, especially "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue". I was particularly pleased by the pittance of protracted pieces, as those tend to make the Dylan discography drag.

7/10, might bump up to an 8 on a relisten because I didn't focus during a lot of the middle section.

7/10. Some cool sounds, but nothing to drive me wild.

9/10. All pretty good, but nothing that I really love.

6/10. At the start of the album I was thinking this would be closer to a 4, because I didn't love the sound. I still don't think it's fantastic, but either it grew on me as I was listening, or it got better as it went. Furthermore, it felt really well tied together as an album, with good transitions and callbacks. Still, every track just felt too long, and the album dragged too much for me to rate it higher.

The album cover is me waiting for the next album to generate. 7/10, Moondance was a good track, nothing too special about the album in general for me though

8/10. Good overall, really long, and started out a bit weak in my opinion. I am not sure how his production quality is still so low in the 90's, but I guess he found his style and he's sticking to it.

7/10. Honestly pretty good, just resent that Blur made this list more times than Tom Petty

8/10. Really chill and ethereal.

8/10. The simplified music to emphasize the lyrics is a good style for Cohen, but I didn't enjoy most if the songwriting as much as I liked Songs of Leonard Cohen

8/10. Surprisingly good

8/10. Pretty chill

5/10. Not bad, but not good. Welcome to the Pleasuredome itself was fun, a lot of stuff was okay, the Born to Run cover just felt like a worse version of the original, and I really don't understand why The Ballad of 32 needed to have sex noises in the background, like do some people enjoy that in their music? Because I just don't get it. Enjoyed San Jose and The Power of Love. Also rather long.

9/10. The only major complaint I have is that it drags towards the end, as it is quite long and frontloads some of the best songs. Might bump to a 10 on review, tbh

8/10. Pretty good, but certainly not my favorite Prince album. Had good variety which helped mitigate the length, but not much of it stood out to me.

7/10. Considered an 8/10, but not feeling generous today. Fun and synthy, short and sweet, would relisten to because most of the songs were solid enough and the opening and title tracks were quite good.

7/10. I like the format, but want to come back to this one and give it a closer listen.

6/10. Jeez, I'd never realized that Layla was 7 minutes long. I like Layla just fine, but this album is just 76 minutes that all sounds like Layla but a little worse. Not an unenjoyable experience by any means, but a little samey.

5/10. Not so bad, but why was there a random pirate song? Maybe I needed to pay more attention

3/10. Did not enjoy. Sounded about as bad as The Dictators, but without the tinges of humor.

7/10. Nothing super special, but was fun to listen to, and it is always nice to get a short and sweet album in this challenge.

8/10. Quite good, great vibe to have going in the background, and probably solid in the foreground as well, though I haven't tested that as much.

7/10. Good, edgy rock music.

8/10. This was really laid back, and pleasantly folksy. A bit like Bob Dylan if his lyrics were less interesting and his production a million times better.

7/10. Kinda strange, sort of peaceful

7/10. Pretty good, but the way they sing grates on me after a while.

That's a 10. I don't know if I like this or The Wall best, as they are both phenomenal but very different

8/10. Great album, but I feel like these songs sounded a lot better when I was a kid.

6/10. Not especially memorable, though Strange Brew at least fits the Halloween season

7/10. I liked this, didn't blow my mind or anything though.

8/10. Really long, but good music. Doubt I'll want to listen to it all in one sitting again.

7/10. This is a pretty solid album.

5/10. Meh, not terrible as grunge, and the original version of the album at least is nice and short.

6/10. Well, it has Take on Me on it. Otherwise, fairly bland, though never too unpleasant.

7/10. Good stuff, but not especially stand-out. Quite liked La Grange

7/10. Sounds like 2000's Indie Music, for better and for worse.

10/10. I'm calling this a 10 for now, but it is very close to being a 9 on account of it being real long with a weaker back half. Even still, this album had a lot of great songs filled in by a lot of good songs, and I enjoyed listening to the whole thing.

7/10. Pretty fly. I liked Give Me Your Love and Superfly.

5/10. I love the cover art, and how confusingly it clashes with the title. Sadly the music sounds a bit like something a 12 year old would have as the background for their minecraft tutorial youtube video. Found myself liking it okay on the whole, at it was decent as background music, but wouldn't want to listen to it actively

8/10. Really sounded like they were just making mouth-farting noises for a lot of the last track, but had some really enjoyable parts as well, and I enjoyed that they had a silly sci-fi conceit. I'd say 8/10 despite being a bit too funky for my taste

8/10. Already reasonable familiar with this, and after this listen, I still like it, but still not that much. I like the cheesy Rock Opera that makes up the first half, and while the second half sounds similarly good, it's not as fun without the unifying theme.

7/10. Funky

5/10. had some good songs

8/10. Fun to listen to, but nothing blew me away.

6/10. Had an interesting sound to it, title track did not need to be that long.

6/10. Sounded a lot like their other album. Pleasant enough to listen to, but not in love

8/10. Very pretty sounding, a little boring? I dunno, worth a re-listen to get a better formed opinion.

4/10. Based on the first song, this album is not worth the additional hassle of not being on spotify and having different song orders for several different releases… Overall, I don't love the singer's voice, and while the music is not as boring as it could have been for an album of this length, it is not really pleasant to listen to either.

8/10. Pipe 'er at the Gates of Dawn? I 'ardly know 'er! I really wish they didn't feel the need to give me a headache just because I decided to use headphones. Looking at you, Interstellar Overdrive. Otherwise, has some good songs, and I do kind of like just how extremely weird early Pink Floyd is.

7/10. I didn't care for "The Scream", so I wasn't looking forward to this. But I was pleasantly surprised by this album. Arabian Knights was pretty good.

7/10. Good, but Killer Queen is the only thing that really stood out to me, and largely because it is the only song on here I was already familiar with.

8/10. Definitely feels aged, but still pretty fun. A little lengthy.

9/10. Quite good, but hard to justify putting another Bowie album on this list…

5/10. Bobby McGee is iconic, the rest is largely forgettable.

8/10. This was really nice.

8/10. I forgot how much I liked "Heart of Glass" which is definitely a standout in this otherwise pretty solid album. Stand-out among the tracks I hadn't heard was "Just Go Away"

3/10. Their singing was just so grating. I feel like it's hard to make French sound that bad, but they did it.

10/10. Really good album.

6/10. Really liked Waterloo Sunset, the rest of the album was pretty meh.

5/10. Okay, but didn't feel like it really held up

6/10. Alright

5/10. Kinda better than I expected. Quite long, but very animated throughout, and sorta fun to listen to. Another 90's rap album where it's interesting to hear the artist give their take on reclaiming the n-word

7/10. Pretty good. Maybe worth an 8?

5/10. Kinda boring

7/10. Had this on in the background, but seemed pretty good based on that, and I liked how it mixed genres.

7/10. Pretty good.

6/10. Pretty good, not especially my thing.

10/10. Best Led Zeppelin album I've heard.

7/10. Pretty good. Watermelon Man wasn't as annoying as I remembered.

7/10. Sounds like Elvis

8/10. Jazzy and good.

10/10. The back half is weaker than the front, but still solid throughout. A lot of classicsongs I was familiar with, and it's nice to finally listen to the album.

8/10. Yes. Manageable length, and sounds good throughout.

5/10. Had its moments, but nothing amazing.

4/10. Long and metal. Like a skewer, but without delicious grilled meat and vegetables. In any case, wasn't really a bad album, I just don't like listening to fast-paced metal like this, it just sound like stress.

4/10. Good energy, but a little grating nonetheless.

7/10. Solid songs, a bit samey as an album for how long it is. Nothing revolutionary.

4/10. Some fun samples, but in general felt like it lacked energy, and parts got a bit annoying.

7/10. Felt somewhere between Elvis Costello and the Police… Pretty good.

5/10. Absolutely insane. Not to be confused with insanely good, but it was listenable, despite not really being my cup of tea. What it did, it did well.

8/10. This was quite good, a relisten might even bump up my score by one.

7/10. Didn't like it nearly as much as Tidal. Had some strong songs, especially towards the end of the album, but other parts of it just kind of annoyed me, and the middle dragged on a bit.

8/10. Another Yes from me. Especially liked Roundabout, but everything was good.

6/10? Might have been worth a 7, but kinda long and only a couple songs stood out

8/10. Had some rather slow sections/songs, but started and ended strong enough. I can see why people like Beyonce, but I don't see her becoming a personal favorite. The bits of "No Angel" that are super breathy and she halts after every word reminded me forcibly of Stevie from Malcolm in the Middle.

7/10. Bluesy and pleasant. Maybe a low 8.

7/10. Forgot to leave a review while this was fresh in my mind, but this was solid. Should return to it at some point.

8/10. Pretty good vocal jazz, great to be on in the background.

7/10. This was so much more enjoyable than Pump.

7/10. This one was weird and I am not sure what to think about it.

4/10. Had some cool instrumentals, but the vocals did not sound great.

8/10. Pretty much what I expected. No songs especially stood out, but all were solid enough.

7/10. Had its moments but not especially memorable.

6/10. Seemed like pretty solid old timey County. Not really my style, but well executed

7/10. I liked how chilled out this was to listen to, while also having really interesting lyrics.

8/10. Some enjoyable old fashioned country music. I liked that that the songs never really dragged on too much, and thought this was a good length overall.

9/10. Maybe I am just feeling generous today, but I can't think of any good reason to dock this one points. I haven't been a big fan of a lot of the metal on this list, but this had a bluesier sound to it that I really enjoyed.

8/10. Good, but so damn long. I don't think I'd listen to this in one sitting again, though it would be a nice background.

8/10. What if Leonard Cohen was a girl?

5/10. KISS has some nostalgic value for me, so this was fine, but didn't really have a lot of what I'd consider their memorable songs.

8/10. Kinda low 8. Nothing really jumped out at me as spectacular, but it avoided sameyness and didn't overstay its welcome.

8/10. As an album, I think I liked this a little more than Document even though there weren't as many stand-out favorites on here

6/10. Good Christmas music, but not a stand-out in my mind in any way.

7/10. Enjoyable enough considering the length.

9/10. Far from my favorite Steely Dan album, but one that I have grown to appreciate nonetheless. I'm still not the biggest fan of Rikki, but songs like Any Major Dude and Charlie Freak have really grown on me over time, as has the sound of the album as a whole, and while there are individual tracks that I don't love, they don't overstay their welcome either. I still resent that this was included at the expense of other Dan albums, but I may yet bump it to a 10/10 if the mood strikes me.

4/10. Some of the songs are actually pretty enjoyable, but most of those still go on way too long.

8/10. Liked it

7/10. I liked how fast paced and quick the songs all were. Really fits together nicely.

2/10. Felt so long because very song was so damn repetitive.

3/10. Ugh, this was so long and so samey and had a ninety-second interlude that was just sex noises. I could sort of see the appeal of it at times, but also it just wasn't for me.

8/10.

5/10. Does she have to tell us at the start of every song that this is a Missy Elliott exclusive? I liked the song with Beyonce, and the one with TLC because they are interesting takes on these other artists' music. I also liked that the album had some heartfelt themes and meaning, but at the end of the day, I am not a big fan of the bulk of Missy Elliott's music.

4/10. I had the soundtrack for Shrek 2 on CD in my car for a while, and almost always skipped "People Ain't No Good" because it was so damn long and mopey. And this album was a good deal longer than that song. Lyrically I don't mind it, but it's just not fun to listen to.

6/10. I like Leonard Cohen, but I don't really get what puts this album on the list. I still enjoyed the lyrics for the most part, but some of the songs just sounded kind of bad. Overall a positive listening experience, but a bit disappointing.

4/10. I thought some scattered songs were pretty good, but didn't really like the album overall, which is always rough on these relatively long ones.

7/10. Sounded a bit like the Beastie Boys but taking themselves a bit more seriously. Which makes it sound like it was bad, but I quite liked it. May return to this for a more thorough listening/rating.

9/10. This had a lot of nostalgic songs for me, and was overall a really fun album.

8/10. Just a really fun album. Gets a bit long, but stays exuberant

10/10. This was really good.

6/10. Another cloudy day on the British Isles.

5/10. It was an interesting mix of genres, but didn't really come together into anything too exciting except for Drive.

9/10. I think this might be my favorite Bob Dylan album so far. It's nice to not have any ridiculously songs, and a lot of the songwriting here felt less rambley than many of his songs, though that's hard to quantify.

7/10. A lot of stuff I've heard on the radio growing up, but not really my style after the nostalgia wears off.

6/10. Bit better than I expected.

4/10. What if Pink Floyd was really boring? Some of these longer songs could almost be video game music if you dropped the occasional lyrical sections, and if they were they'd be pretty cool. Even still, the length of this makes listening to it as an album pretty rough.

9/10. Spectacular album. Graceland and You Can Call Me Al are the obvious stand-outs, and everything else seemed solid as well. Could easily go up to a 10 on a relisten, only reason I am holding off is because nothing really blew me away on the more filler-y songs, but I think that might have just been me multitasking homework and forgetting about it.

7/10. Obviously the title track is a classic. Vincent is almost too full of poetic devices to work as a song, but it ends up being quite pretty regardless. The rest was not too memorable. But overall, a good start to my second year of this project!

8/10. Definitely better in French. Started out sounding like French Taylor Swift, but had some more diverse sounds to it later on.

6/10. Nice and bluegrassy, but so goddamn long. I could see it being nice ambience.

4/10. On the low side of meh.

7/10. Maybe an 8 out of 10? Solidly enjoyable throughout, nothing grabbed my attention

6/10. Bummer in the Summer? I 'ardly know 'er! But yeah, this album started off with a couple of pretty good songs, and then it started to get monotonous. Last song also good though.

7/10. Some really enjoyable stuff, but the vibe was a bit too mopey for my taste. I liked the other Goldfrapp music that Spotify started shuffling after I finished though.

2/10. I don't know why I would want to listen to something that tries so hard to sound bad.

4/10. Would've been better without any vocals I think, but overall fine.

8/10. Pretty fun, pretty good

5/10. I don't quite like this, but I can't pin down exactly why.

7/10. Yeah, can't say there's much to this album besides Tiny Dancer. The singing feels really overdone, and clashes with lyrics that are typically a lot more sober. There wasn't anything that I thought was really bad, but a little disappointing.

3/10. There isn't a lot of space in my life for a 90+ minute album of electronic music. There were enjoyable tracks here and there, including the 20 minute title track, but there were also some tracks that annoyed me or bored me, which is pretty rough when the average track is about 8 minutes. A high 3, but a 3 nonetheless.

7/10. Honestly, pretty good, at least in the background.

8/10. Who'd've thunk it? Two days in a row of 90's albums I actually enjoyed. Though I don't think I've ever really taken that much issue with the Blues Rock of the 90's.

2/10. Probably the least wonderful rainbow I've experienced. It was like someone took the noise of unplugging your earbuds in the middle of a song and made that into a whole damn album. There are definitely some bits where there is a bit of an interesting beat going, but not enough to redeem it in my eyes.

6/10.

8/10. Good stuff, but not the most exciting

5/10. Sorry Mariah Carey, you are doomed to be remembered only for your Christmas music.

6.9/10. Nice.

7/10. Fun, folksy, but ultimately forgettable.

7/10. Enjoyed it a fair bit while I was walking around listening to the first half, kinda started to annoy me when I was listening and studying.

5/10. Musical music without a plot line. Meh

7/10. Kinda cool

4/10. Maybe it's just that I pre-judge any album with a song called "Jailbait" on it going in, but I didn't think this was that good.

9/10. Really quite good, and very palatable to my Western tastes. Just like it says on the box.

6/10. Maybe even a seven. I liked how it sounded, my main issue is that it sounded pretty darn similar for the entire run time.

5/10. Rather boring and forgettable, but pleasant enough.

6/10. Eh, alright

7/10. I really like the Canterbury Tales-esque concept album framework, but don't really enjoy the actual music that much.

10/10. One of my favorite albums of all time. When I was feeling like shit as a teenager, there was nothing like listening to The Wall in all of its angsty glory.

5/10. Meh, could've been a lot worse

5/10. Got impressively boring for only being half an hour long.

7/10. Some good songs, but probably wouldn't relisten to the whole album

7/10. Pretty enjoyable stuff, I liked Revolution Blues.

8/10. The morose singing was kinda just meh, but the lyrics and instrumentals were quite nice

7/10. Once in a Lifetime is great, but the rest of the album is thoroughly middle of the road.

6/10. Pretty good, wouldn't listen to it again though.

7/10.

7/10. The Who get a lot better later on… Miles and Miles is good of course, and I liked most of the songs at least a bit. Silas Stingy is like the lame grandfather of the "Scrooge" from the Muppet Christmas carol. Also I hate that the Who refuse to just put normal versions of Albums on spotify. It has to be "super deluxe editions".

4/10. The song changes every 2 minutes yet the whole thing sounds the same, and like punk music. I was only awakened from my stupor when I realized I was listening to a cover of Doctor Wu. Maybe could justify giving it a 5, because I like some of these instrumentals, but the singing just drags.

6/10. Why does this list need more than one Van Morrison Album?

7/10. Kinda fun, not really my thing

8/10. I liked this.

7/10. Maybe even an 8 out of 10, because parts where it was just pretty sounding instrumentals were really nice, but then there'd be weird and somewhat offputting vocals from time to time.

9/10. I am usually pretty lukewarm on Nirvana, but this was excellent

5/10. Utterly forgettable. Fun cover art though.

6/10. It's like disco, if disco sucked. Still kinda fun, but not really my thing, and certainly not something I want to hear a whole album of.

7/10. Better than I expected. Really enjoyed the first half, the B side felt rather weaker though

8/10. The music was pleasant if slightly dull sounding, but I enjoyed the humor.

10/10. I like to say that this is overrated as Pink Floyd albums, but it's still a 10

4/10. Not my thing

8/10. Pretty good, would listen again. Paint it Black is a great way to start an album, and while it gets a bit weaker towards the B-side, it's still pretty pleasant.

8/10. Short and sweet. Lots of fun old songs that didn't overstay their welcome

4/10. Despite the fact that I read the title of the first track, I thought the guy was saying "Pedo Bob" for the first few verses. Otherwise, the album was long, uneventful, and quite forgettable.

7/10. This is such terrible 80's music. Kinda fun though

7/10. Just the right amount of punk

5/10. Eh, not bad, not great.

9/10. I really liked this.

7/10. Birb.

10/10. This was so heavy, even compared to at San Quentin.

8/10. Pretty good, but he can do better.

6/10. The last thing you want from Taylor Swift is an album that goes on for a whole goddamn hour, but as it turns out, that might be exactly what you get. On the upside, I kinda liked it besides that, her lyrics have gotten more interesting at least, even if the music is just kind of yawny sad-girl hours

5/10. Pretty boring, but pleasant enough in the background.

7/10. Pretty good.

9/10. Not the biggest Neil Young fan, but this is a very solid album.

7/10. Pleasant album, but a bit boring, at least for driving. So far, definitely a low for David Bowie albums on this list.

5/10. Evil rappers be like: I'm not the kind of person who would want attention from multiple women. All in all a rather samey album that verges on contemporary christian music.

7/10. Might even be worth an 8. The mood feels more consistent than monotonous, and is a great way to spend some time being sad.

5/10. Definitely glad that I got a Little Richard earlier in the challenge, made hearing Speed King more interesting, and it's always fun to see albums in the list referencing each other. That said, this music is not interesting enough to have 7-10 minute tracks, and just feels frantic.

7/10. (Listened to the expanded edition because it is what's on Spotify). This is some of the most Bri'ish shit I have ever heard. The Amazing Journey and My Generation medleys were excellent, as was Magic Bus, but the rest of it was kinda meh.

7/10. Pretty good, don't know why they have to end the album with an assault on my ears though.

7/10. Quite good.

8/10. Chilled out and really pretty sounding.

6/10. Loud, but some bits were pretty interesting

2/10. This was painful to listen to, and it felt so long. Maybe even a 1.

6/10. Pretty good for what it is.

7/10. For the most part quite enjoyable, but the vocals always felt rather unwelcome and unnecessary.

8/10. Very pleasant, and good songs, I just don't love listening to Radiohead for the length of an entire album.

9/10. Likely even a 10/10 on a relisten. The song titles felt a little too shot though.

5/10. Bit boring

6/10. I guess this was pretty good.

10/10. Completely incomprehensible, worse by miles and miles than Quadrophenia, and "Fiddle About" ruins the entire listening experience every time, but still a very good album.

9/10. This had a lot of rather good songs on it, that all sound a lot better after a few years of not having listened to the radio.

8/10. Maybe even worth a 9, I was quite enjoying this

6/10. Basket Case is great, but half the album just sounds like Basket Case but lamer.

4/10. I don't understand what's supposed to make this good.

5/10. Maybe worth a 6/10, but not very memorable.

7/10. First album in a bit that I'd say I enjoyed, but still not all that inspired.

7/10. Like Pet Sounds, except this album actually has some pet sounds in it.

8/10. Quite good, but how many Talking Heads Albums are on here?

10/10. Has a couple of my favorite Prince songs on it, and while a couple songs are only meh, I still enjoy it all the way through.

6/10. Better than expected, but not memorable

8/10.

7/10. Not bad, but nothing crazy

6.66/10. I'm starting to like Iron Maiden a bit

6/10. Not memorable, but pleasant

8/10. Quite good

7/10. I like Paul Simon plenty, but this album felt a little underwhelming.

8/10. Henceforth, I shall remember the Queen of Soul.

5/10. They did an excellent job of putting their most palatable song first.

6/10. Enjoyable enough as metal goes.

9/10. Rather nice

6/10. Isn't much of anything. Fades easily into the background which is nice in a way, but annoying to actually pay attention to.

5/10. Kinda blah

8/10. Really picks up in the second half

9/10. Blues!

6/10. Some okay songs, in a pervy British guy way

9/10. Of course I'd heard the hits before, but the album as a whole is rock solid.

7/10. Pretty good, a whole album of Joni Mitchell is a bit much for me though

8/10. I didn't care for the other Hole album I've had, and wasn't looking forward to this. But, I ended up quite liking it. 8/10 as a first impression, but I could see that moving around if I listened to this more.

7/10. Some good stuff, but also a really long time to listen to Jimi Hendrix for.

7/10. Chill stuff

4/10. I zoned out and didn't hear the lyrics of 'penetration' until like 30 seconds from the end, so I think that was a win.

6/10. Sleater, Kinney.

9/10. Wow, I gave this band's other album an 8/10 and forgot about it entirely. But I'm going to have to go back and listen to more of there stuff, because this was swell.

8/10. Two quite good songs, a few good ones, and some meh.

5/10. Not bad in general, but the last song is gross.

7/10. Cool.

6/10. Okay, in an old-timey country way

8/10. Quite enjoyable

6/10. I don't dislike it, but I don't get what makes it so great.

9/10. This was delightful

5/10. This was pretty meh

5/10. Unmemorable, but not bad by any means

7/10. Alright

10/10. This was like the perfect chill studying music. Was not expecting to like this as much as I did.

8/10. This was a really fun little Beach Boys album

7/10. This was kinda cool

8/10. Good stuff

7/10. Pretty good, with a touch of bizarreness

7/10. Enjoyable, but not a standout

9/10. This was really nice, I'd like to relisten when I have more time to listen to the lyrics

8/10. I liked this. Not the most exciting to get for my 500th album, but a solid inclusion.

8/10. I feel like I liked this better than some Hendrix albums I've heard.

5/10. Eh.

7/10. Jigsaw Puzzle was fun

8/10. 50 minutes is too long to listen to Sinatra for, but this is still pretty good

6/10. Not bad.

10/10. One of the best ones out there

6/10. Not bad, not memorable on a first listen.

3/10. Put off listening to this for over 2 months because it wasn't on Spotify. Can't say I regret putting it off, though there were bits that sounded kinda cool

6/10. Interesting social commentary, but not great music.

6/10. I fucking hate the Eagles, man. This is fine, but pretty boring. The two songs from it that got popular are nice to listen to, though.

4/10. What's with that song where he yells about the Kombucha? This was like bland metal meets the Talking Heads, and that wasn't a combo I enjoyed, certainly not for an hour.

5/10. Failed to make an impression on me.

6/10. More pleasant than I was expecting.

8/10. Immigrant Song is always fun, rest of the album pretty good too

6/10. I liked it all right

7/10. Actually pretty good

7/10. Decent, his singing gets wearing after a while though

7/10. Pretty good

8/10. Nice mix of fast and slow songs.

8/10. Really nice, jammy sort of live album

6/10. I was expecting much worse for one of the lowest rated albums on the list. I liked it overall, but it is definitely a bit too frantic to comfortably listen to in the background, and I am not really one for actively listening to stuff without lyrics, so there's not really a good niche for listening to this, but it wasn't bad.

7/10. Pretty good stuff.

7/10. Nice stuff, and always fun to hear a song commenting on what is now a historical event.

9/10. I really like Steely Dan, but it was a long time before I liked this album, and even now it is not my favorite. Most of the songs on this album have grown on me, but few of them need to be nearly as long as they are, which can make the album feel rather boring. Still, My Old School and King of the World do a lot of work to carry this album.

7/10. Solid album, but I still don't quite like her singing style.

6/10. Decent, old timey country

7/10. Pleasant, but bland

7/10. Enjoyable in a moody way, but the last song was a bit much.

8/10. They say you can't imitate DMC the great, but the Beastie Boys definitely did.

7/10. I liked that all the songs sounded different, but they were definitely better at some styles of music than others.

7/10. Maybe even an 8, this had several solid inclusions, and none of the songs were unpleasant to listen to, excepting any sex noises in the background.

8/10. Maybe 9/10, love a good concept album

7/10. Solid album

8/10. Roxy Music doesn't disappoint, though it never blows me entirely away either.

5/10. Long and meh

7/10. Pretty good

6/10. I am fond of concept albums, but the songwriting, especially when it came to rhyming, could be so predictable that it just made the album feel a bit pointless. Like, say something original about your life being ruined by drug addiction in Berlin, I already know that shit's sad

6/10. Good, but boring for bits. Could probably be a 7 on a good day

8/10. Enjoyable ambient music. Always feels weird that ambient albums are included on this list at all, but that aside my main complaint with this one was some tracks were a bit distracting for something to be in the background, especially Green Calx.

7/10. Liked this a lot better than her other album, even considered an 8/10, but I think that's pushing it. Pleasant sad music.

8/10. Pretty fun little listen

8/10. Girl From Mars is a classic that I heard a lot growing up, but after over 500 of these albums, I'd worried that this album would be one of those that's just on the list because it had one good song. As such, this album was a pleasant surprise. It was a bit long, but I enjoyed it throughout and will likely come back to it.

8/10. Good album for the Beastie Boys

7/10. Good album, consistently enjoyable

6/10. Had a couple good songs

8/10. This was pretty good. long album, of course, but pretty enjoyable every step of the way

8/10. I liked it, though I wasn't paying close enough attention to notice when it ended and spotify radio based on it began.

5/10. Kinda boring, but not bad

9/10. Definitely a pretty good album, and the Best Michael Jackson album I've heard, but not quite a 10 for me

7/10. I liked it

4/10. This is like alternate universe Bob Dylan where he kinda sucks

7/10. Another solid Pixies album

8/10. Kinda weak as Beatles albums go in my opinion, but When I'm 64 and With a Little Help from my Friends are great.

9/10. Most enjoyable

8/10. Good stuff

6/10. Good album, maybe even a 7/10. Not my favorite genre, but it keeps it fairly interesting.

3/10. Absurdly boring. All the songs sounded the same, and I did not much care for the vocals either. It was short, but didn't feel that way

8/10. When I first heard the singers voice, I thought it would ruin the album. But I ended up really liking it

5/10. I always kinda thought people were too hard on Coldplay fans, but now that I know how mediocre some of their songs are I've decided they deserve it.

4/10. Started off well enough, but over the course of an hour it starts to feel samey and even rather boring

7/10. Pretty good.

7/10. All kinda blended together after a while, but ultimately pleasant

7/10. Good stuff, nothing life-changing.

5/10. Not bad, but not really for me.

8/10. Cool album, it usually annoys me when Spotify only has the extended version of the album, but in this case I was left wanting more at the end of the album's run time so it was okay.

Wait, how did Harry and Hermione dance to this last song in 1997 if it didn't come out until 2004? 6/10. I was pleasantly surprised that this wasn't a mopey snoozefest like the other Nick Cave album I've heard, but I can't say I liked more than the occasional song, and most of the songs I liked still went on too long.

5/10. Another meh album from the birbs

4/10. I just don't really understand the appeal of Radiohead.

6/10. It was nice, but nothing crazy

6/10. Kinda fun to listen to, but I can't take it seriously after having seen it edited over club penguin game play.

7/10. This was pretty enjoyable, and seeing as it was a live album I can forgive the length.

8/10. All of the pretentiousness a growing boy needs

5/10. Not bad, not great.

8/10. Good performances of good songs.

7/10. Liked it, didn't love it.

8/10. I did quite like the album, very nice and chill, but damn this list has a lot of Bowie.

3/10. Didn't really enjoy it much

8/10. This was really nice

6/10. Liked this way better than goo or whatever it was called.

7/10. Good album overall, but nothing really stood out from it

7/10. Ah, yes, the album with the song from Shrek on it.

6/10. Nothing to write home about.

7/10. Ever since I first looked at the 1001 albums list, I've wondered why *this* was the Tom Petty album that they decided to include on the list. I hadn't listened to it, but I hadn't really heard much about it either. Well, eventually I got an edition of the book, and took a look at the entry for this album. It's just some critic talking about how Britain was really the country that discovered Tom Petty, because he got popular there earlier. So, now I know that the reason this album was included in lieu of Full Moon Fever or any of the much better Tom Petty albums out there is because this is the one that got popular in Britain. Though of course if it hadn't, we probably wouldn't have gotten a Tom Petty album at all because the book needed space for more fucking Blur albums.

6/10. Some bits were pretty cool, some bits kinda put me to sleep, but maybe I just need to go to bed earlier.

9/10. This was really good, I'll have to listen to it again.

6/10. Fine, I guess, the songwriting was sometimes rather charming, but idk why I had to listen to this before I died

9/10. Really good

7/10. Continually taken aback that I like Def Leppard. That said, this album had some issues, namely that two songs tried to have a runtime well over 4 minutes, which is way longer than I want to listen to a single Def Leppard song.

4/10. Not only was this album rather mediocre, it wasn't on Spotify so now YouTube will think I like this crap

7/10. Largely pleasant, some kinda cool bits too

6/10. Eh

6/10. George mikes

8/10. Kinda fun and educational that he explains how Indian music differs from Western music as he goes.

8/10. Not sure if this album is better than other Smiths albums, or if I am just getting Stockholm syndrome

6/10. Like a Prayer is a fun song, but the album as a whole was a little underwhelming for me

6/10. Fairly enjoyable, not what I would have expected from the title, but about what I'd expect from the artist's name and the year.

8/10. Actually quite liked this, but it's still bullshit that there are multiple 2010's David Bowie albums on this list, because it is just not representative of the music of the 2010's.

8/10. Was not expecting to like this since Wikipedia listed one of the genres as Electronica, but was pleasantly surprised. It is both pleasant to listen to, and interesting.

7/10. Pretty cool album, not sure how I feel about it guest starring The Watermelon Man from the third track onwards.

7/10. Quite old fashioned, but very pleasant

7/10. It's always refreshing listening to albums where all of the songs are short, good for variety. The music itself was pretty good, too, though I think it would've worn on me if it had gone on longer.

6/10. Liked it alright, didn't love it.

5/10. Kinda cool, kinda annoying, bit too long.

5/10. Not unpleasant, but so very forgettable that I forgot I was listening to it half of the time

7/10. Nice ambience, with moonshake randomly in the middle of it.

7/10. A couple pretty good songs, lot more pretty mediocre ones, but even a mediocre song can be interesting for a minute.

2/10. There'd be a lot of songs that sounded kinda cool, and then the vocals would kick in and it just sounded like shit. Was relieved that the really long song at the end didn't sound much like the rest of the album.

7/10. I've come to realize I don't really care much for Radiohead, but I did like this album. The subdued sound and cynicism work well together here.

9/10. Some stand-out hits, but not quite a 10. Or maybe it is just barely a 10, and I just want to prove I'm not like the other girls, idk

6/10. Some pretty nice songs, but a lot more that were just not very memorable. Probably higher quality songs than the other Wilco album I've had, but the runtime is really a lot.

7/10. Liked it slightly more than I expected to.

7/10. Good stuff, enjoyed the dialect-y rhymes in Traveling Man

6/10. A little disappointing, I liked their other albums better. Still solid, but lacking some energy.

7/10. Funky fun, with occasional annoying electronic distortion.

5/10. I sort of like this, but I can't listen to it for an hour, while sober, without losing my mind a little. Also it's weird there's just a Christmas song in the middle of the album, but I guess it's not that Christmassy so it's okay

2/10. Stagger Lee was probably the worst Nick Cave song I've ever listened to, and that's saying something. Swearing in his dumbass wannabee-Tom-Waits voice for a whole song, and he just sounds like an edgy 12 year old, and that last statement goes for much of the album.

7/10. Time After Time and Girls Just Wanna Have fun are about all I wanted from a Cyndi Lauper album, and some of the other stuff on here wasn't too bad either.

7/10. Enjoyable to listen to, not all that memorable

5/10. Couple of good songs on here, but as an album, boy does it drag.

7/10. Really good, stay tuned for my Minecraft parody of the first song "A Miner Place"

6/10. Chill jazz, it's nice but doesn't excite me

6/10. Yeah, if I lived in the 50's and had never heard of Rock 'n Roll, this would rock my world.

6/10. Not bad, not my genre

7/10. Liked a few songs quite a bit, and the rest were generally pleasant

8/10. Oi, wot if we 'ad an 'ip 'op owlbum wot we could lis'un to wif affanoon tea then?

5/10. Was hoping for a bit more Blues, a bit less Explosion.

6/10. Not bad, but felt like it was just being weird for the hell of it.

4/10. Has the texture of porridge. Would probably be excellent to listen to if I was trying to fall asleep

7/10. I like ABBA. But why this album?

6/10. Pretty good, and I can definitely hear how this was influential

5/10. Thoroughly blah

7/10. On one hand there are some great songs, on the other hand the style is just too consistent throughout the album to hold my attention all the way through.

6/10. I am not in love with British folk, but I do like the opportunity to hear more traditional songs, feels historical.

10/10. Was not expecting to like this as much as I did. It takes everything I like about gangsta rap, which are somewhat few and far between, and puts them together into a very cohesive whole.

3/10. Not even that bad at its worst, a bit generic but generally okay at its best. Its worst of course referring to whenever the guy started singing.

5/10. I admire the robots' ability to roll their r's, but not much else about this album. Some of the songs sounded kinda cool, though

6/10. It's like an evolutionary step between Arctic Monkeys and Imagine Dragons, but also they are trying to write a musical. Bizarre, and ultimately enjoyable

4/10. I don't see why I have to listen to this before I die, I don't see why it was so long, and moreover I just didn't care for it much.

9/10. This was really nice, an improvement on the other Isaac Hayes album by virtue of the fact he is singing a bit more sparsely

5/10. This was, perhaps, the most typical album of this list on this list. Decent British rock music with mildly interesting lyrics, a self-indulgent length, and a whiff of circus music.

7/10. Maybe even an 8. Not exactly sure what this album did right for me, but I liked it.

5/10. Very blah. Might have been more forgiving if there hadn't been so much blah in my albums of late, but then again there was a spoken word poem on here, so maybe I am being too kind with a 5.

6/10. Liked it more than I expected. Curious about those accusations of antisemitism he keeps bringing up though...

6/10. Good, but not especially exciting

5/10. I sleep.

7/10. I liked Music for the Masses better as an album, but Personal Jesus and Enjoy the Silence are always great

8/10. Really rather nice, lyrically quite cool. And always fun to learn where a memorable sample comes from

6/10. Musically, I definitely like this better than the crab album, but the crab album had a much more memorable album cover

10/10. Every other song or so is fantastic, the others hit sometimes, miss other times.

9/10. I do love a good concept album, though I do think the concept of this one started to wear a little thin, since you can only sing for so long about how you miss the good old days, especially if you're only going to present an idealized picture of said good old days. Still, I quite liked most of the songs, and pastoral poetry is perennially pleasant, so a high score all in all.

7/10. There were the two songs I knew, and everything else was just okay.

7/10. I listened to this one a bit early, because after getting 6 Elvis Costello albums in the first hundred or so albums, I got really annoyed when there was a crossword hint for an Elvis Costello album, and none of the names I knew fit. On a relisten, I think much the same as I did the first time: good album, but not his best work and the only real standouts are Beyond Belief and You Little Fool, and the former is starting to be ruined by Spotify playing it for me every time a playlist/album ends.

5/10. Maybe a 6, but honestly I found this a little boring.

7/10. I suppose I liked this. It was a bit long, though.

7/10. I spent a while trying to figure out what a "taggle" was, and why you'd put it in someone's tank before I saw the name of the song.

10/10. I don't wanna be an American Idiot, and I don't wanna put each song on its own track

7/10. Maybe only a 6, but idk these guys are starting to grow on me a bit

7/10. Good stuff, pleasant to listen to, and great for getting work done to

8/10. Pretty good, better than I was expecting even, but not a Ten

6/10. It has there she goes on it. I think a couple of the earlier songs were okay too, but I've forgotten which one(s), which is a bad sign considering I've only had half an hour to do so.

5/10. At their best, they sound a bit like the Talking Heads but worse. Not all of these songs are up to that standard.

4/10. Was Violence a pun on violins?

4/10. Yeah, didn't really care for this.

8/10. I liked this, had a sorta cool little sound

7/10. Nice little album, glad it wasn't longer though.

6/10. Maybe worth a 7, but I've been being too generous lately. There were a couple songs I kinda liked, and the general sound was nice enough, but nothing really stood out to me as worth remembering.

6/10. I don't love how he sings, but some of the songs were fairly interesting

5/10. I'll probably forget this album by tomorrow. By the way, what the fuck was "We're Not Supposed To"?

5/10. Why would a frog get me down? And why do these guys get multiple albums? At least it was short and had that creepy song about wishing a girl was a horse so he could ride her.

2/10. I won't say this has no musical value, and for a bit during "I Luv U" my Stockholm syndrome built up enough to convince me parts of it sounded cool, but otherwise I fucking hated this shit, it was so damn annoying and I just wanted it to end, which it thankfully has now done.

9/10. This was excellent, enjoyed every song, maybe even worth a 10.

7/10. Some of the songs were really good, others rather annoying. Still, didn't know I knew and liked so many XTC songs

5/10. Eh. Bjorky

5/10. In 1987, we didn't have "therapy" or "anti-depressants", we had a 10 minute recording of George Michael telling us he wanted to have sex with us.

7/10. Okay, yeah, I see why this is their only double album. Feels like they stretched themselves a little thin, butter over too much bread and all that. Fortunately, the bread is still pretty good.

9/10. A great, unique sounding album. A couple songs got on my nerves, but in general this was great.

8/10. Finally, an album named after a year that's actually the year the album was released in! Taylor Swift, Prince, Rush--take note.

8/10. I wasn't expecting a ton from this, but I was pleasantly surprised. It isn't the most exciting album, but it's certainly very pretty to listen to throughout.

8/10. I listened to this one before it came up on the list, and on a second listen I think I like it a bit more. I still think that it's a bit over-wrought, and would have been better without some of the backup vocals etc, but I still really like a couple of these songs, which manage to sound good despite the cheesiness of the affair. Everybody Knows and Take This Waltz are probably my favorites from this album, but Jazz Police fits the awkward style better.

7/10. I liked this, especially the first bit, but towards the end the sound of his voice started to wear on me.

7/10. Very pleasant, didn't get the opportunity to pay close attention to the lyrics unfortunately, may be worth revisiting for that reason.

6/10. This was nice, but not very memorable.

8/10. But close to a 9. I think this was my favorite REM album so far

4/10. Scott

9/10. Good shit

3/10. Too punky for my taste.

6/10. Pretty pleasant, got a bit samey, but Windmills of Your Mind was kinda cool

6/10. I actually liked this album, but was disappointed it didn't have more to do with rocks. Also the first song was fucking miserable, why does he have to shriek like a Nazgûl every few seconds? Is the song about the black riders of Sauron getting back in the saddle? I doubt it, and I'm not going to relisten to find out.

8/10. This was pretty enjoyable right off the bat, got even better towards the end, and didn't go on too long.

6/10. Eh, definitely wasn't bad but nothing really caught my attention?

5/10. I liked it pretty well when they weren't talking/singing

6/10. The Band was all together, and it was... alright.

4/10. Yeah, I just love being yelled at

5/10. Probably my favorite hardcore punk album I've heard so far. Because it understands that you can say everything a punk album has to say in 15 minutes, and 15 minutes is about the right amount of time for me to get over how jarring it sounds, start to kinda like it, and then end right as I'm getting tired of it again.

9/10. The back half definitely slowed down a bit, but I can't deny this is a solid album.

7/10. Maybe an 8, there were some poignant moments, but man has he got a big head at this point.

8/10. Cover art is pretty cool. Music was also a solid option for listening to while working.

6/10. Got on my nerves after a while, but had some kinda cool bits.

8/10. There were only a couple of real hits, but it stayed remarkably solid throughout a long-ass runtime.

7/10. More honky tonk than heroic

5/10. It was cool how different each song was from the others, it's just that I only really enjoyed like a third of them.

7/10. I'm not entirely sure what to make of this, but I think I liked it

6/10. Decent, but really long. Glad it didn't end up being a full double album.

7/10. I thought this was pretty cool. Only gets a 7, but it's like the 7 I gave Bat Out Of Hell where it's way more interesting than a 7, but that doesn't actually make me like it enough to be an 8.

7/10. Good stuff. I should listen to this sort of stuff more.

9/10. Excellent stuff!

7/10. I enjoyed most every song, but I never want to sit down and listen to the whole album straight through again.

5/10. Well, it gets points for being absolutely bizarre, and sometimes even sounding pretty good, but it loses points for having songs that go on for much too long, and also being kind of annoying.

7/10. This was pretty cool

7/10. Reasonably interesting glam rock

6/10. Pretty good, but I'm glad these 60's albums are always short.

6/10. Not entirely sure what to think about it. I could see myself liking it more if I heard it again

10/10. Yeah, I really liked this. Very melodramatic and complex. Only downside is it makes me think of that "Prog Rock? More like Frog Cock" meme I had described to me once

6/10. Don't you want me sounded like it always does, do or die was pretty good, the rest was pretty forgettable.

7/10. Good stuff, nothing earth shattering.

3/10. Started out okay, and then I got to a track with vocals and it got worse, and then everything just started to go on too long and feel miserable to listen to.

8/10. I like ABBA, but listening to a whole album of them at once is a bit much to ask, and their songs that aren't hits aren't swell. Still, this album has a good number of familiar songs, and I found I rather liked Tiger as well, and could probably like Happy Hawaii okay if they didn't pronounce Hawai'i "Hawai"

4/10. Not bad, but nothing about it really struck me as good either.

6/10. Kinda interesting. Why was every song marked explicit? Were they swearing quietly and I just didn't notice?

8/10. Solid as an album, didn't blow me away

7/10. Pretty good, maybe a little bare-bones for my taste, but still.

6/10. I kinda like this music, but I don't love it, and don't really see why I needed to hear a second Portishead album before I died

8/10. I never really know what to make of The Flaming Lips, but it's certainly lyrically interesting.

5/10. How much Fairport Convention does this list really need?

5/10. "Oh wow, Blister in the Sun is such a great song, that must mean the album it's on is good too, right?"

8/10. A pretty solid piece of work. Some of the covers weren't spectacular, but some were quite good, and I liked the original stuff.

10/10. I love this album. The way that Born in the USA and My Hometown bookend the album elevates the rest of the songs, bringing out their themes of loss of innocence in a changing, America. Musically, I think there's a lot to be said for Born to Run being Springsteen's best work, but this album is definitely my favorite.

7/10. I liked all of this, but I wouldn't listen through the whole album again.

6/10. One time in high school French class I got the opportunity to listen to a French-canadian-first-nations rapper rap about how cool he was paddling around in his canoe, and frankly I have been unable to take French-language rapping seriously ever since.

7/10. I can hear why people say this is great, but it doesn't always land for me, and it's long, though that wouldn't be an issue if I was more into it. Still solid stuff

8/10. I don't really know why I liked this, but I did. Maybe I was just in the right mood for it?

7/10. A classic put all the hits at the beginning album. Still pretty enjoyable, though.

6/10. Kinda nice, not something I'd normally listen to.

8/10. Similar complaint to the other LCD Soundsystem Album, where everything went on just a little too long. Still pretty good though.

7/10. I was surprised by how much I liked this, but I'm glad it's not super long

5/10. The Emperor's New Clothes was pretty good, but I wasn't that impressed with the Prince cover or anything else on the album, though.

6/10. Seems like the sort of thing I'd like, but also listening to this after lunch kinda put me to sleep, so the jury is still out.

5/10. I'm glad they got most of their really grating sounds out of their system on this album

8/10. I guess I'm a bit of a Gene Clark fan, this was really nice.

6/10. Yeah, this is a pretty good album, but also I remembered these songs sounding a bit less boring than they are.

8/10. Definitely a really solid album, nothing super crazy, though.

4/10. I didn't really care for this, but a few tracks were kinda nice, such as Selfish.

5/10. I was expecting this to be worse than the other Coldplay album, but it wasn't awful

8/10. I was expecting this to drag over its long runtime, but it was great to just put on in the background and let wash over me.

7/10. Great lyrics throughout, but musically I thought it was a bit dull, with the exception of Me and Julio, which is always a fun listen.

7/10. Lotta big names, didn't really come together as an album all that well for me though.

7/10. Yo, it's got that song they play for like 20 seconds in 10 Things I Hate About You

6/10. This was kinda a let down to me, didn't like much besides 7 Nation Army

8/10. She really did just decide to sing every song. Very long to listen to in full, but great music.

6/10. On the better side of blah.

6/10. Could be a low 7. This was quite nice, but nothing from it really stood out to me, just faded into the background.

7/10. This was good, but I didn't give it the attention it deserved so I can't say how good it was.

8/10. Very good Rush album, maybe a 9

7/10. Good country album.

7/10. It was good for a while, then I kinda stopped enjoying it. Overstayed its welcome, I suppose

6/10. Better than I expected, nothing earth-shattering

6/10. Why was 90's rock obsessed with Moles? "Elevation" from this album, "Holes" by Mercury Rev, and above all "Flagpole Sitta" all fit this label, which wouldn't be that significant except that I can't think of any songs with mole-related lyrics from other decades. What was it about life in the 1990s that made these weird little animals so briefly and triumphantly relatable?

6/10. Not bad, not great.

6/10. I don't love her voice, but some of the songwriting is quite good. Don't love it as an album, but definitely a couple good songs.

7/10. Didn't love it from the get go, but started to get more into it as I listened. Could end up liking this a lot after a while, I think

5/10. It was good, maybe even deserves a 6, but I don't see what made it great.

6/10. This had some pretty good songs, but listening to it straight through is not that pleasant—it's just too long and samey.

4/10. I can see why I haven't heard any of this but Earth People.

8/10. Kinda cool, not what I expected from Todd Rundgren

7/10. Yeah, I get why this is good, and Black Hole Sun is great and all, but I don't like Soundgarden enough to get excited by listening to them for 70 minutes straight.

4/10. Why do I always listen to the really boring albums right after lunch?

4/10. A few of the songs in English on here were kind of torturous to listen to, and really dragged down the album as a whole.

7/10. Mr. Crimson, were those wet sounds at the start of easy money really needed? A couple pretty cool bits, but some sleepier parts too.

9/10. I'm starting to really warm up to CCR.

9/10. I put this off for a while because it's always annoying to have to leave Spotify, and I didn't like the last Neil young + Crazy Horse album I had. But now that I finally got around to it I really enjoyed this album.

7/10. Love some good old-fashioned depressing country music

6/10. Listening to Celtic music is weird because it reminds me of both the Battlestar Galactica Soundtrack and sea shanties.

3/10. I don't really get it.

4/10. We don't need a spinoff album for every single member of Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young…

6/10. Chill music, interesting interludes, but didn't drive me wild.

7/10. Jazzy. A pretty fun time

8/10. This was pretty enjoyable, but nothing jumped out at me as being just incredible.

6/10. xkcd.com/411

8/10. Good music. Was worried for a bit that I'd go 2 hours on a Bri'ish album without hearing any circus music, but then Johnny's birthday saved me. Annoying that the spotify tracks aren't in the original order, but whatever

6/10. I like concept albums, but since I am not great at French, I didn't follow much of this except that she has natural red hair. Bigger issue was that the music just wasn't that interesting to me. I could probably grow to appreciate it

5/10. Alright

9/10. Always glad to get a Bob Dylan album.

7/10. Pretty good. Reminded me of Ziggy Stardust in parts, but not nearly as good overall.

7/10. Critical Reception: "The track "WOR" has been recently used in a Toyota Australia advertisement for the 2019 Toyota CH-R Next Gen Turbo." Pretty good album, all in all

3/10. Bleh. A whole lot of the same shit. Not much for me to like

5/10. Anyways, here's Wonderwall

7/10. Yeah, this sounded a lot like REM. I think I could like a lot of these songs, but as a 69 minute album, it's hard to enjoy

7/10. It's Boston, no surprises here

6/10. One of those where the music was pretty good, but the vocals brought it down. Didn't totally ruin it, but I don't think I'd want to listen to more of this

9/10. I've been enjoying my Neil Young albums lately

7/10. I liked this, reminded me a bit of Rush?

8/10. This was really pretty, may return to it in the future.

7/10. When I see an artist's name, I make some assumptions about the album. From "Thin Lizzy" I figured this would probably be a female lead singer/solo act, and be pirate music. I'd say I was about 20% right, because the band was Irish

5/10. Gosh, I mean there were some good parts, and it was even pretty good throughout, but my God, man, it's 77 minutes long.

6/10. Kinda zoned out while listening to it, but I'd give it the benefit of the doubt.

9/10. Wow, these guys weren't screwing around.

9/10. I really liked this, nothing super crazy special, but there was something nice about it. Maybe I'm just a sucker for Aussies/Kiwis

5/10. This list is really starting to try my patience for British folk

7/10. Ah, yes, the reggae cops

7/10. Ah, the Rolling Stones before they gathered any moss.

7/10. Kinda jazzy, kinda rocky, kinda enjoyable. Played an obscure Donald Fagen song I hadn't heard on the Spotify mix afterwards, so that's a plus.

3/10. Wow, I really didn't care for this, but I can certainly see how it influenced 2000s music.

4/10. The instrumental parts were pretty good sometimes, but much of the rest was actively irritating.

7/10. This was pretty good

7/10. Dead flowers is excellent, the rest is pretty good.

4/10. Not much fun to listen to. I like that there was a song about going to Spain though

7/10. A little let down, because I liked Getz's Jazz Samba a lot, but this didn't quite do it for me. Desafinado was still nice, though

4/10. Hot Rats has given me the false impression that I might one day find something else that Frank Zappa had a hand in that I actually like. Plus, I think Sgt. Pepper's is overrated, so I was looking forward to hearing it mocked. As such, I am disappointed, as well as annoyed by this album, because it didn't do much for me than get on my nerves.

5/10. This was pleasant enough, but it didn't leave much of an impression on me.

6/10. Another pleasant album that didn't really strike me as anything special.

8/10. I kinda figured this would be one of those albums with a couple hits, and a lot of blah filler, but it worked out to be pretty solid all the way through. Could even consider bumping it up to a 9 if the mood caught me.

6/10. This was pretty good, and kind of nostalgic, but not exactly my thing either.

8/10 In spite of the British invasion of circus music at the start of the album, I found myself quite liking this album. Felt a bit like Jefferson Airplane, but with good variety between the songs

7/10. Pretty good. Nice to listen to the album with "Money" on it right after we have the Mothers of Invention album accusing the Beatles of only being in it for the money.

5/10. Not bad by any means, but I can see why it's considered overrated

4/10. This reminds me a bit of U2 or Travis, except I've actually kinda liked the albums we had by them. And this isn't one of those things where they aren't as good, but they did it first, nope, they did it last and worse. Oh, but wait, it was a *nominee* for the Mercury prize, so it must be secretly amazing?

2/10. Atomizer? I 'ardly know 'er!

8/10. Good shit

4/10. I don't know if this album was better than the other Slipknot album, if Slipknot has grown on me, or if I've just heard more music I like less now, but this was better than expected.

6/10. Enjoyable enough.

6/10. Had its ups and downs. The songs seemed to be going for an understated but powerful aesthetic, which sometimes worked and sometimes felt a little sleepy. But overall a good album, if not an especially memorable one.

6/10. This album went back and forth on whether it wanted to sound kinda like the Beach Boys or kinda like shit.

6/10. Yup, that was an Elvis album alright.

7/10. Solid country

6/10. Yeah, this was fine I guess, I don't think I'd want to sit around just listening to it because it's kinda long and boring, but it was nice in the background.

9/10. Fellas, it is Gaye

3/10. I wish we were an eagle so we didn't have to listen to this boring-ass album and could go do something cool instead like catch a fish in our bare hands, but oh well I guess you can't have everything.

5/10. Didn't sound great, but the witchcraft themed concept album aspect of it did a lot to save it in my mind. I could listen to this in the background on Halloween.

3/10. So, the sound of this is like a 1/10 for me, just felt like spoken word over beats that were usually pretty irritating to me. That said, I enjoyed the rambling, moralizing story of the lyrics, and I enjoyed the humorous tone. But goddamn I never want to hear this again.

8/10. Pretty good, pretty long

5/10. It reminds me of Marty Robbins, but the without the cowboy charm to lighten up the downtrodden lyrics. Jones' occasional sarcasm helps to offset this, but this only really shone through on "Our Private Life", which at least ended things on a positive note, and is what pushed this above a 4/10.

3/10. It's hard to make a song about Constantinople that I won't like, but these guys did it. There were some kind of cool songs on there, and the sing-songy vocals did work with the weirdness of the sound, but at the end of the day it was just unpleasant to listen to much of the time.

5/10. Not bad, I don't see myself returning to this, though.

9/10. Real pretty, and I liked how the skits worked to make the album feel more homogeneous.
