Hair metal was a mistake

The mix of thrash with Brazilian instruments is interesting but overall not my thing. Took some points off for the length of the album

There was a time when U2 were pretty good. This wasn’t one of those time

Some standout songs but mostly forgettable 60s psych pop

The mix of thrash with Brazilian instruments is interesting but overall not my thing. Took some points off for the length of the album

Formed after the demise of Hüsker Dü and really just made their full transition into alternative rock and power pop that Husker Du was making towards the end of their career. A solid album with a more interesting vocal approach than most power pop.

Was into slipknot when I was in middle school but outgrew them before this album came out. Some good moments on here but the production lets the album down. It sounds very muddy

Good but Missy has better albums

Why are there so many Elvis Costello albums on this list? He’s good at best but never great. Some good songs on this one but nothing that blew me away

Slapped

Hair metal was a mistake

Strong 3! Dug the vibes but I prefer this bands later output

Actually... I didn't hate it. There were good moments in there but stuff that could be cut. It didn't need to be over an hour long

A lot of great stuff on here, but also a lot of filler

This seems like the hip hops version of Smash Mouth. Very corny, there's better examples of this genre that aren't on the list. Maybe I'm being harsh

8/10

7.5/10

There was a time when U2 were pretty good. This wasn’t one of those time

Do I like this album? Yes. Would I call it essential listening? No, not really.

All rippers, no skippers
