Was heading for a generous 3* but then went on for too long... inoffensive but bland

It's not bad, but extremely dull and forgettable in most places

Not bad per se, but hasn't aged well and annoys me

First 3rd of the album is amazing, then gets pretty dull

Nico has talent... if talent is defined as an ability to sing every other note flat. Awful to listen to.

3.5 *

Close to a 4 but not quite

Some excellent songs... but a lot are are either crap, or absolutely shite.

Really enjoyed, would've gotten 4* if he have actually done any song writing

About 1/5 of the songs are decent, the rest are not. Overrated

Musically is decent... Love his voice, lyrics are terrible, melodies bland

All single paced and completely forgettable

2/3's of the album is nonsense, redeems itself slightly near the end but too little too late

Some v good tunes but a lot of crap there too

It's not bad, but extremely dull and forgettable in most places

Meh... Pretty dull, prob needs a lot of listens to fully appreciate

Better than expected!

My own personal taste is that I don't like her voice I'm afraid, some solid songs though but found it tough listening

Yeeeaaaaaaaa Boooiiiii! Loved this

Superb blues, and great use of guest artists

Terrible stuff... woeful vocalist, bland songs, and production which sounds it was recorded on a tape recorder.

Shame the vocals are weak and samey, actual tunes are ace

Not bad per se, but hasn't aged well and annoys me

Close to a 4* for me, but not quite

Absolute shite.

Excellent album, though not sure it should be regarded as one of the all time classics

Surprised me how much I liked this. Brilliantly produced, with some classics

Perfect stadium rock album, consistently brilliant tunes

Definitely of its time, but nice, welll written tunes

Extremely underwhelmed by this.. Shame

Great voice, and sounds like he was an excellent performer for the crowd

I can't stand his voice and the constant slurring of words. Things improve on the few songs that have something resembling a structure but that's few and far between

Really frustrating album for me. Some absolutely brilliant tracks... but overly long with some bog average ones and lazy lyrics... Generally far far too much autotune and vocal production which strips some of the emotion that he's conveying.

The band are amazingly talented, majority of the songs are great... but having a chump that sounds like Randy Newman on vocals automatically means they can't get over 3*.

Really disappointing compared to Stand... Meanders along without much purpose or direction, and crappy production. Shame

It's fine... and while I wouldn't listen again, I can get why people would like it

Love her voice and really enjoyed the album... almost a 4 but not quite

Almost a 3, but too generic and bland overall. Great guitar work

It is exactly as it says it is... a soundtrack, and a very good one at that... but I don't want to sit at home and listen to background music.

Lovely album but very 1 dimensional

Bored the tits off me

Lacks any sort of identity or coherence... which is a shame as some solid music in there, but just no sort of flow...

Enjoyed this, almost a 4 but not quite enough stand out tracks

Nothing wrong with it at all, but just not my thing

Most consistent album of theirs I've listened to, and a lot of good songs (Tomorrow Never Knows being great). Just misses out on 4 stars due to the vast majority being too short and simplistic verse/chorus/verse/chorus/finish.

Almost a 4 but not quite. Too many skipable tracks

This just didn't agree with me... I should've enjoyed it due to the style but it's all a bit too messy due to the copious drug usage I'd assume.

Surprisingly excellent. High quality throughout and some absolute tunes

Patchy, some great stuff... then some tripe. Seems to be the way of most of Dylan's albums unfortunately.

First 3rd of the album is amazing, then gets pretty dull

So many cringe moments.

Feels harsh giving it a 2 as there's a lot of great musicianship there, but I really dislike most of the songs apart from about 3 of them

Would've got a 4 if a few filler songs were dropped from it

Generic, unimaginative & completely forgettable

Massive disappointment to me when compared to Lazer Guided Melodies which I really enjoyed... Couldn't get into it at all

Nico has talent... if talent is defined as an ability to sing every other note flat. Awful to listen to.

A greatly innovative album, awesome tunes through out

Brilliant album, Stem/Long Stem is genius and the rest is varied enough to keep you interested and high quality throughout

Can't stand the vocalist, a tough listen

2cack

Killing Time is a stunning tune... the rest (apart from Silver & Seven Seas) are absolute garbage.

Love this, superb funk/rock blend

Starts brilliantly but tails off badly unfortunately

1st half is great, 2nd half less so. Almost a but not quite

Almost a 3... but not quite.... Pretty decent for a country act though

Great wee pop album. Almost a 4 because of Girls Just Want to Have Fun & Time After Time... almost a 2 because of some of the terrible synth (especially the god awful solo on All Through The Night)

Really disappointing

Not enough standouts to get a 4 but a good album

There's a good album in here somewhere... appalling lyrics though kill any chance of finding it though

Fine for what it is but nothing really stands out and I wouldn't wanna listen to it again

Not bad per se... but sounds like any run of the mill rock band you'd hear down your local music venue

Only Here She Comes Now prevents this from getting a 1 star

Totally forgettable

Starts well then fades quickly and becomes very dull

I really liked this back in the day, but it sounds dated in places and lacks consistency

Coffee shop background music. Bland, though pleasant and inoffensive despite the terrible lyrics. Why it's on this list is a complete mystery though

Surprised me how good this was, plenty of great tunes to warrant a 4*

Could never quite work out what this album was meant to be, but was a decent listen

Sounds like a Kate Bush drag act backed by a Foals tribute band... (This is not a good thing)

Improves on second listen but too much filler. Really enjoyed the southern blues elements but the bland made for radio songs were dull

Really enjoyed this somewhat surprisingly!

Brilliant, almost a 5*

Dull but inofffensive

No stand out tracks at all unfortunately

Great album which grows with every listen. Strong 4*

Lost a lot of the impact with the amateur mixing

Dull unimaginative tripe...

Terrible 2nd half

I think this would be a bit of a grower, she's no FKA Twigs but still decent

Loretta sounds like an absolute pain in the hole, no wonder she's singing terrible whiny country music

Absolutely brilliant... reminds me of mellow Pearl Jam.

Bit of a confused album overall. Not bad per se just all over the place

Really dull. A few good tracks that almost got it to a 3* but not quite enough

Suffers like most Pixies albums from having too much filler crap in amongst some gems

Dunno how I've never heard these guys before... v. good album

Generous 3... very dated and repetitive but still a decent listen

Was heading for a generous 3* but then went on for too long... inoffensive but bland

Drags on too much, would've been a 3 otherwise

Brilliant throughout

Far too samey, shame as the tunes are good but it just gets dull

I'm absolutely baffled as to what warranted this to be on the list at any point

I really love this album but objectively it's a 4* due to a few filler tracks

Perfectly okay... but lacking in many standout moments. Generous 3

Fuck off Morrissey... lazy melody writing apart from That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore. The rest of the band don't get out of 2nd gear either for most of it.

Really liked this album when this first came out and it still holds up well. Shame they went downhill after this

2 decent singles doesn't hide the other 1 hour's worth of repetitive and dull excrement that is commonly known as House music

A massively influential album, but sounding a bit dated now. The mix of hardcore punk tunes with random party tunes is a little confusing at times haha

Solid DnB, decent variation although nothing mindblowing

Really enjoyed this, almost a 4

Just scraped a 3*

Love the title track... 2nd half of the album is forgettable though... shame

Really grows on you after a bunch of listens

This whole album irritated the shit out of me... Not even Psycho Killer (which I'm not a massive fan of) could save it.

Superb

The 1st half is background music and self indulgent, the 2nd half is very good.

Singing annoys me somewhat, music is good but the songs are very forgettable.... A slightly harsh 2*

Yawn, bland and a bunch of pointless covers. Definitely the most boy band esque from them that we've had so far

Solid album but only 2 or 3 standouts mean it just misses a 4*

Nice background music but a whole album of hammond organ isn't for me... and as good as the 3 original songs are, not enough to warrant a respectable score

Actually really enjoyed this... goes on a bit much but think it's an album that would grow with multiple listens

The Fall will always be shite

Bonkers and really enjoyable :)

POW POW POW!!! Has it's moments that I really liked... Too much random nonsense though.

Some great standout tunes but a lot of samey filler songs that don't really go anywhere

Got boring quickly with it being the same pace throughout... background music

I was expecting this to be very samey but it keeps things interesting throughout. Banging tunes if you don't take it too seriously and accept it's a little dated sounding now

Actually suffers from being too well produced... makes it sound very cheesy, but generally a solid listen. A slightly harsh 2*

The better songs on this album are good, but as per every Beatles album, there's some nonsense on here too. Wish the second half didn't have the medley feel but will give a generous 4

Some great tunes here, but they're in the minority unfortunately. Should've been 20mins shorter

Audible AIDS. It's like they decided to create a whole album based on the naff shite the Beatles did and forgot about the rest

Didn't realise Frank was such a whiny little bitch 😂 Felt like it was the same depressing song over and over again and hasn't aged well

Some great tracks here, just not enough to justify a 4

Paint by numbers britpop that doesn't do anything particularly original or great to warrant it to be on this list imho.

Yeah they disappeared up their own arses later in their career but this has consistently great songwriting and is excellent

Very generous 3... easy to listen to but repetitive and feels quite sterile

Absolutely hate the continually forced vibrato vocals which makes the whole thing a chore to listen to. Musically it's very one dimensional too.

Mostly nonsense with the occassional decent moment

A really solid album, but lacking in any major stand out tracks

Perfectly fine to listen to, but every song is so similar they kinda all blend into 1

V. interesting, not sure if I'd ever listen to it casually though

Songs are worth 3*, but the quality of the recording and weird change in volume levels drops it a star

Nothing wrong with it intrinsically.... but it's dull and acts best as inoffensive background music

Shite Flight

An absolutely infuriating album... this band are so far up their arses. Not even I Can See For Miles can prevent this getting a 1 due to the level of shite delivered on the rest of the album

A generous 3... quite boring but listenable in a lot of places, although a few good tunes to hold it up

Decent listen, shame how weak the last third of it is. Low 3*

Sonic Youth always frustrate me... they always have the potential to throw out a banging album, but there's always lot of filler shite. Almost a 4 here but missing out because of this

This has no redeeming features. One paced, crap lyrics, average vocals. Would get a pleasant polite applause at a Monday night open mic session down the pub.

A strange mix of lots of brilliant moments with some really dull/annoying ones thrown in there that stop it getting any more than a 3 unfortunately

Starts off okay but then gets really lame and annoying in the second half

Can't stand Bryan Ferry's vocals, the music itself is ok.

I really thought I'd hate this, but it's a decent listen though gets a bit naff near the end

Well that awesomeness came out of nowhere!

Black Coffee saves it from getting a 1 star... Everything else is so very dull

Not a single bad song on here, but no big tunes either unfortunately. Solid listen

I enjoy the chaotic aspect of it all, and is quite a fun album, but they obviously made an informed decision to make it sound like it was recorded in a toilet in 1975. The lack of bass really reduces any impact it could have too and leaves it hard it listen to. Perhaps a slightly harsh 2* but I won't be listening to it again

Is actually a great album in the 2/3's of it where they aren't doing overly self indulgent jamming

Good listen, let down by the original tracks

Shiii-ite

Falls right off the cliff after the excellent 1st 3 songs

Plenty of other singer songwriters throughout history who could do a bunch of traditional folk covers to this level

Soooooo dated and repetitive

This is lazy and doesn't have anything of merit apart from Range Life

Nothing wrong with it... but I'm fed up with every Springsteen album being bang average, this one in particular lacks any real stand outs

As far as country albums go, this isn't bad!

Some good stuff, some naff stuff, a slightly harsh 2

Great fun and upbeat album, not the biggest fan of the vocalist's wobbly vibrato but still q good listen

Frozen is an absolute tune. Rest of it is generally very sub par euro pop/dance

Brilliant album, nearly a 5*

I'll take two of whatever this eejit is on

Should be the definition of hit and miss

Opposite to This Is Hardcore which was solid throughout but with no stand outs.. .this has 4 great tunes and then a load of naff nonsense

Pleasant listen but nothing really stand out at all. Even the studio version of no woman no cry done is v weak compared to the live recording

Nothing interesting at all about this album
