Popular Reviews

Boring hipster music

Never been a huge U2 fan. Not bad, but pretty generic and samey sounding.

Not my usual genre, but this was very catchy and engaging, which I don't usually get out of electronic music. Loved it and will check out more of their music!

I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would, since "folk" is not typically a genre I listen to. A solid album!

A little slow and ballad heavy for my tastes, but there were some really great tracks on this one. Reminded me of Oasis.

Almost a perfect album. Love it!

A good listen. Very chill, with a few excellent tracks.

Nice musically but an overall meh album for me. Too ambient and sleepy.

Such a great album, one of my all time favorites.

This album felt disjointed and none of the songs really engaged me. Not a fan.

A few good songs, but overall kind of a boring album.

This was perfect for a Friday afternoon. I am not usually a huge Beatles fan, but this album really hit the spot. Short and simple, but a lot of catchy tunes on this one.

So bizarre. I was waiting for it to be over.

Not groundbreaking, but upbeat and solidly enjoyable the whole way through.

An ok album. Nothing that really stood out, but inoffensive to listen to.

An enjoyable listen. A few really great songs, but nothing earth shattering.

This is the first time I have listened to a van Halen album the whole way through. It was enjoyable, but I will probably stick to the singles from this one in the future.

A really enjoyable, relaxing album with some great bluesy guitar.

Outside of my typical genre preference, but this was a great album!

Classic.

Pleasant to listen to, but was about to put me to sleep

Very long songs, but very hot and buttery. Not something I would choose to listen to, but surprisingly enjoyable... Until the last song, which was a huge drag.

Never been a huge U2 fan. Not bad, but pretty generic and samey sounding.

This was a favorite of mine back in college. Haven't listened to it in years and was surprised to see it on this list! I enjoyed it just as much as back then. I love how the lyrics form an overarching story, and is generally pretty humorous.

A pleasant listen, but nothing really stuck out to me.

I don't think I ever would have encountered this if I were not listening through this list, but I am so glad I had the opportunity. This album had fabulous vocals, a ton of catchy songs, and was a fantastic start to my morning.

Fun and catchy 90s vibes. Brings me back to childhood!

Outside my normal preferred genres, but pleasant to listen to. Nothing stuck out in particular.

This album is way too long. I am not a lyrics person in general so I feel like I missed a lot of what makes this album a good one. Musically wasn't anything stellar.

As a music theory nerd, the introduction was fascinating. Overall enjoyable, and good background music for getting work done.

Love the distorted feel. Solidly catchy throughout, but nothing wowed me.

I LOVE old British punk, so this was right up my alley.

Meh. A few catchy songs but overall a bit of a snooze. Emotional haircut was a great track though!

Decent enough but nothing really stood out to me.

Classic

Great album! Had a few tracks I had never heard, and none disappointed.

I had only ever heard fairytale of New York by this band, which I don't love, bit the rest of this album was great!

I am not a huge rap fan. Overall had good beats, but it all ran together to me.

Blues the way it should be

Beats were ok but by the end it felt repetitive. Not a fan of the lyrics.

Relaxing to listen to.

Most of this album was pretty meh to me. It picked up a bit in the second half, and psycho killer is a banger, but overall not super into it.

Not my usual genre, but this was very catchy and engaging, which I don't usually get out of electronic music. Loved it and will check out more of their music!

A solidly great album. Solos were a little too long at points, and a few tracks lost me, but in general this was very enjoyable.

My first full stones album. Loved the variety in style, which somehow came together well as a whole.

Nothing I would seek out on my own, but overall a pretty enjoyable album. I felt the length of some of the tracks in a bad way, but each one had something good for me.

I can see why someone might like this... But goddamn was this a boring album.

I wanted to rate this higher, there were great moments on this album, but it just didn't come together for me as a whole.

A fun album but nothing that wowed me.

A solid album, with really beautiful vocals, but too mellow for my taste and nothing stood out or stuck in my head.

A solid jazz album... Not my thing but was nice background

Classic. Amazing start to finish.

Didn't age so gracefully, but this gets 5 stars for the pure nostalgia factor. Loved it as much as I did back in middle school when it was my first album with parental advisory.

This one was a slog. I managed to finish it so it gets a 2, but I am really not into 80s/90s hip hop

I hate her voice so much. The screeching made me want to puncture my eardrums. Otherwise I probably would have liked this at least a little. But yeah, my first one star, and I don't know if my eardrums will ever recover.

Perfect.

Liked this more than I expected. Bonus points for the PlayStation noise in the intro!

The lyrics are a lot more messed up than I remember, but this album slaps as hard as it did back in middle school. Another 5 for nostalgia.

Kind of boring, decent background music.

A decent album. Nothing totally wowed me but it was enjoyable.

Nice vocals, but a little too slow paced to hold my attention through the whole album.

Kind of weird and ambient, but in a way I kinda liked. It reminded me of video game music for some reason.

A decently catchy album. Nothing groundbreaking, but enjoyable.

A good album with a couple bangers.

The instrumentals on this album slapped... But vocals ranged from unbearable to OK. Overall had some solid tracks that I can see myself coming back to.

Not terrible, but pretty unremarkable.

Mediocre punk with a couple bangers mixed in.

Super catchy and fun, and held my attention even with super long tracks.

90s rap just doesn't do it for me.

This album shreds. Nuff said.

Solid album

Classic 60s rock with a few great tracks.

I'm not super into jazz, but this brought back a lot of memories of my grandfather, who was a jazz pianist. Bittersweet to listen to but comforting in a way.

Great guitar and very chill.

I hate country music, and this is no exception. Got an extra star for a few catchy guitar riffs, and for the fact that she has a really great voice when she isn't doing that awful yodelly country twang.

I love ska! A few classics, some extra bops I had never heard before, and a few meh songs. Overall a great listen!

I had only ever heard come on Eileen from this band, and assumed they were a one hit wonder, but wow this was a great album!

Chill and relaxing

Didn't love every song, but this is an absolute 90s classic.

Dragged on a little too long, but was overall enjoyable. Lots of solos.

Catchy but overall pretty meh.

Meh.

Love how bluesy this is.

Great storytelling and vocals, but kind of monotonous towards the end.

Had never heard of this band before, and it was a pleasant surprise! Fun and catchy throughout, and will definitely listen again.

Not bad background music, but too atmospheric and slow to catch my attention.

Not bad, but I just don't get Prince

Sweet dreams is an absolute bop, the rest of the album was ok.

Don't love her voice, and a fairly boring album. Did have some catchy guitar bits.

Love it

Overall solid, with a couple great tracks. Love his version of hallelujah

Painfully 80s, but good to bop around to.

Love the grungy feel, surprised I had never heard of her before!

Musically a fine album, garbage human though.

Unexpectedly delightful! Super fun album in a genre I usually wouldn't touch.

Another unexpected hit! Couldn't resist the funk.

Classic

Great vocals, killer guitar, and even flute.... What's not to love?

Not a fan of country, but the slide guitar is fun

Ok music to drive to, but overall pretty underwhelming.

This one was fun, ska with an 80s vibe

Not terrible but didn't love it.

Hated it at first, but it did end up delivering a couple bops.

Premium grunge

Best of the 90s rap so far

Had never heard of this band, but a fun album that I will come back to

Love the energy! Another surprise hit.

Kind of bland, but surprised I had heard a few of these tracks before.

Love how weird Frank Zappa is

Not my favorite black Sabbath album, but still fun with some real bangers.

Lots of talent, but a bit too mellow for my taste

Super hard to find album, ended up cobbling together based on the track listing on Wikipedia. Lots of fun regardless!

Still a sucker for punk 🤘

A few tracks were ok, but this album was a slog to get through. Boring, discordant, and barely musical at some points.

Weird and experimental, but I did occasionally find myself vibing with it.

Started off strong and ended up... Mediocre at best. Weird and experimental in a less offensive to the ears way than some others so far. Frankie teardrop was horrendous.

A solid album, but nothing revolutionary.

Really fun and unique album.

Funky

Love superstition, but the rest of the album was unremarkable.

Better than some of the other 90s rap albums so far, but still felt really repetitive towards the end.

Way too long. I definitely preferred speakerboxxx, and would have rated that a 4 on its own. The love below had a couple great songs but was too long with too many interludes

Fun and catchy

A few great tracks, but overall underwhelming... And his voice gets annoying after a while.

Nothing amazing, but a pleasant album to listen to.

Pretty standard new wave, but the horns keep it fresh and fun.

Absolute masterpiece

Had never heard anything off this album before besides the forest, but really enjoyed it!

Great album the whole way through!

Great classic blues, and excellent sound for a live album!

Boring hipster music

Very unique blend of sounds, and a fun listen overall.

Some amazing tracks, some stinkers. Overall a pretty good album, especially for a country album!

Standard chill reggae. I enjoyed it, but not mind blowing

Some interesting beats, but overall didn't hold my attention

Marginally better than the last Kate Bush album I got. Not a direct assault on my ears, but a boring background music that irritated me.

A few really good tracks, but a lot of pretty dull but inoffensive stuff in between.

Not usually a big rap fan, but this was good.

Garbage human, but I love his music.

Love David Bowie

Liked it more than I thought I would. Pleasant but not enough for the 4th star.

Not my favorite Bowie album but still pretty good.

An ok album, nothing special but enjoyable.

Never listened to a full pearl jam album before, but this was great

A bit long but a good album

Kind of boring, but good musically and with a few great tracks.

Corny 90s dance music. The one hit song was great, the rest was kinda boring and had too many weird keyboard sounds.

A solid album with some excellent tracks.

Pretty generic 80s pop. Not my thing.

I enjoyed this. It was a bit samey, but a lot of fun.

Some songs were a bit out there, but overall a great album.

A couple good tracks but not impressed overall.

Had never heard of this band. Pretty good album.

Had moments of OKness but was overall unengaging

Kind of samey, but a fun album

Album was pretty hit or miss, some tracks were super boring, some were jams.

Something fun and different, exactly what I signed up for

Just great blues

A fun album

Bland with shitty mixing

Classic middle school nostalgia

I hated this much less than I thought I would. So.e pretty decent songs and catchy guitar

Great rhythms, but a little monotonous at times with the drums.

Delightfully weird

Way too long, boring hipster garbage

A fun listen, didn't know any of the songs prior but still enjoyed it quite a bit . Reminded me of the Beatles.

Some great tracks, but dragged in some spots

A few great tracks, and the rest were pleasant but not amazing

Another catchy but kind of bland British rock group... These are really piling up

Some of the instrumentals we're good, but the rap was cringe and the rest was kinda boring

Too long and samey. Great voice though

After trout mask replica this one had me scared, but it was surprisingly good!

Hate his voice... Sings like he is taking a shit

Was ok at times, but too damn long

Bawitdaba is so bad it's a straight banger, but otherwise this is a shit album

Waaay too long

Mom, I want meatloaf. No honey, we have meatloaf at home The meatloaf at home...

Very generic pop. Has a couple bops, but the album is way too long and drags so I didn't feel like I could give it a third star.
