Has aged very poorly

The music is pretty good but the “singing” ruins it

Never suggest this again

Has aged very poorly

Good stuff

Liked it

Good

Another steely Dan record

Another British snoozer

Hasn’t aged well

Like most 90s rap, hasn’t aged well

Just don’t like him

Just not a fan

Those three chords get old

This is some dark stuff

Some 80s VH1 vibes

Underrated 90s classic

Can hear the precursor to Metallica

If you’re into electronic house music

Lively fun Latin rock and roll

African rock. Slow. Drones on

I mean it’s all right

Meh. Kinda dreamy. Kinda dull. Pass.

Zzzzzzzzzz

Dirty dirge

Mixture of uplifting and truly creepy

Instrumental Jazz

Very late 60s

Primo guitar fuzz

Steely Dan on acid

90s masterpiece

Fun album

Interesting laid back listen

I can see how they led the way for other acts but doesn’t mean I’ll ever listen to it again

Simply the best

Enjoyable 70s punk rock

It’s Clapton

Quite enjoyable. Early country rock

Very Art Brutish

Another FM masterpiece

I’m sure there’s a reason to put noise on this list but it escapes me.

These guys simply do not get enough credit. Absolutely one of the best bands of its era.

Elvis at his best

Listening to this made me irrationally angry

Of albums I’ve had zero exposure to before this list, this is one of the most original and interesting.

Not as good as Live Trough This but a good listen

Not my thing normally but I liked it

One of the best albums of all time

Just not my thing.

Pavement comparison is apt

This is an outstanding bluesy rock album. Much more than the big radio hits.

Chill mood music. No lyrics

Some really good songs on here but going w a three star because the title tracks 20 minute length dominates and confuses the entirety of the album

Disappointed to be honest

House music

Really enjoyed this

Big band music. Felt I was in a Charlie Brown special

Very strong

Uncle

I mean, whatever

One day I’ll appreciate Tom’s dying cat sound but today is not that day

I loved this

Guided by Voices had so much potential but it feels like they never quite finished anything. They have a seemingly endless amount of starts to songs but got bored and moved on before they fleshed them out.

Need to come back to this

Thank goodness Spotify only has part of the album. Every song feels like an intro to a song but then it’s the whole song

All those years I thought that voice belonged to David Crosby

Zzzzzzz

Usually not a huge folk fan but I really liked this one

I admit I only listened to three songs but only because it sounded like total garbage

List is getting pretty tedious

Revisit

Good album though not my tastes

Ugh

I’m not gonna make it through this list
