Popular Reviews

Korn by Korn

There was already a Korn album on the list. A second one certainly was not warranted.

Hammersmith Odeon, London '75 by Bruce Springsteen

There are already 5 Bruce Springsteen albums on this list. Another one is certainly not necessary let alone, a live album which is two hours long. Let's at least have some creativity. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Silent Alarm by Bloc Party

I had never heard of the band before. The songs were ok. Nothing great or memorable about them. I will not revisit

10,000 gecs by 100 gecs

It was not good. It was short that's about it. A lot of voice modulators. I did not care for it. It certainly did not need to be recommended to be included on this list.

Nonagon Infinity by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
Apr 29 2024

Meh. It wasn't that good. Nothing was memorable about it.

Spilt Milk by Jellyfish
Apr 30 2024

This was pretty good. It gave me vibes of Queen. It was eccentric at points but still good.

May 01 2024

It was just kind of there. I didn't really get into it. The songs could have been edited down.

After Hours by The Weeknd
May 02 2024

It was a decent album. I recognized several of the songs. Each song sounded very similar. It was also a little long.

I And Love And You by The Avett Brothers
May 03 2024

It is modern folk music. This did not need to be a thing. Way too long. No one should have recommended this.

Dimanche à Bamako by Amadou & Mariam
May 04 2024

It was decent and a good change of pace. I will round up.

Music For People In Trouble by Susanne Sundfør
May 05 2024

Some of it was decent. There were parts that were super weird. Not sure why someone would want to add this, I will round down.

A City Dressed In Dynamite by That Handsome Devil
May 06 2024

It is certainly eccentric. It reminded me of Tom Waits at points. I do not think I would revisit this album, but it was interesting.

Hammersmith Odeon, London '75 by Bruce Springsteen
May 07 2024

There are already 5 Bruce Springsteen albums on this list. Another one is certainly not necessary let alone, a live album which is two hours long. Let's at least have some creativity. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Oncle Jazz by Men I Trust
May 08 2024

Way too long. The album artwork made me think I was going absolutely hate this and that it was going to be garbage. It was not the worst thing I have ever listened to, but I do not think it was really enjoyable. I will round up.

Come And Get It by Rachel Stevens
May 09 2024

It wasn't awful but it was just there. Nothing memorable, kind of bland. Move along.

In the Aeroplane Over the Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel
May 10 2024

An awful whiny album. No need to be added to the list or for it to really be made.

May 11 2024

It is entirely way too long. It definitely has that 90s sound. The only surprising thing is the group is Dutch and not American. I have no desire to revisit.

Racine carrée by Stromae
May 12 2024

A French electronic album. I couldn't understand the words which is fine. It wasn't too long but it felt like it went on a little too long. It's between a 2 and a 3.

Fuzz by Chucklehead
May 13 2024

It was very funky. The lyrics were just alright. I will round up.

Before These Crowded Streets by Dave Matthews Band
May 14 2024

Ugh I really was hoping to avoid listening to any Dave Matthews Band. But here we are. I did not care for the album and I do not care for DMB. It is entirely way to long and it is just annoying. It is not the worst on the list, but I will round down.

Watch Out! by Alexisonfire
May 15 2024

It's not great. A lot of screaming which is unnecessary. I didn't need to hear it. I know that some people like this type of music. It's a no from me.

A Salty Dog by Procol Harum
May 16 2024

It was just kinda there. Nothing particularly noteworthy.

Zuckerzeit by Cluster
May 17 2024

Eh. It is just synthesizers and techno. Thankfully it was short.

The Hazards of Love by The Decemberists
May 18 2024

It was ok. Just kind of there. The dial didn't move much.

Relatives in Descent by Protomartyr
May 19 2024

It wasn't awful but I definitely did not need to hear it. It wasn't too long. Nothing really noteworthy about it. I have no desire to revisit. I will generously round up.

Live in San Francisco by Thee Oh Sees
May 20 2024

This album is not necessary. A live album certainly doesn't improve it in any way. Sometimes the music was alright. The lyrics weren't good. No need to revisit.

Recipe for Hate by Bad Religion
May 21 2024

It's punk music. It was not bad but it was not good. I would not revisit the album again but it was relatively short so I tolerated it.

Blue Is The Colour by The Beautiful South
May 22 2024

It was ok. Some of the songs had humorous lyrics. The album was just there and I do not plan on revisiting it.

Carrie & Lowell by Sufjan Stevens
May 23 2024

Ugh. It was bad and very whiny. I suffered through it.

Control by Pedro The Lion
May 24 2024

The was just whiny music that I didn't need to hear. It was bad. I suffered through it. It is not the worst album but I will round down

Join Us by They Might Be Giants
May 25 2024

What useless album. It is so dumb. There was no need to add this.

Boys And Girls in America by The Hold Steady
May 26 2024

There were times when it sounded like Bruce Springsteen but in indie music fashion. None of that is a good thing. Thankfully, it was short.

May 27 2024

This is not a good album. It was short. The album name was humorous. It started off alright then it progressively got worse. So many of these user chosen albums have just been straight trash.

Peasant by Richard Dawson
May 28 2024

Imagine going to a restaurant and you asked for a recommendation and they gave you one. But it turns out it was just dog shit on a plate. That's what listening to this User Recommendation was. Who honestly thought this was a great album or one people should actually listen to?

Discosis by Bran Van 3000
May 29 2024

It was different sound. Mixing some music and adding more beats to them. It was there. Too long though. It is better than a 2, but not really a 3. I will generously round up.

Tomb by Angelo De Augustine
May 30 2024

Eh. It was indie music. He has a whiny voice. I didn't care for it. No need to revisit.

The Beautiful Letdown by Switchfoot
May 31 2024

Eh. It was just kind of there. No need to revisit or really listen to.

Misplaced Childhood by Marillion
Jun 01 2024

It was eccentric at parts. I was generally surprised by it. I was prepared for it be awful. Still not sure I would revisit it.

22, A Million by Bon Iver
Jun 03 2024

Let's take shitty indie music and add auto tune. It was still awful. Songs were skipped.

Apostrophe(') by Frank Zappa
Jun 04 2024

It is such a weird and eccentric album. Thankfully, it was short. I don't see myself revisiting it.

Korn by Korn
Jun 05 2024

There was already a Korn album on the list. A second one certainly was not warranted.

Weezer by Weezer
Jun 06 2024

I knew several songs. It was a relatively short album. It was alright. I don't have a desire to listen to the whole album again, but I would revisit a couple of songs.

Jun 07 2024

It was certainly an eccentric album. I had never heard of the album, the band, or any songs previously. I do not have a need to revisit.

Nail by Scraping Foetus off the Wheel
Jun 08 2024

It was a weird 80s metal album. I don't need to listen to it again. Thankfully it was short.

Madvillainy by Madvillain
Jun 09 2024

It was pretty good. The beats were good. The lyrics were alright. I was somewhat familiar with his music. I would listen to parts again.

Because the Internet by Childish Gambino
Jun 10 2024

This was an OK album. Nothing really stood out. It was a little long and not really memorable. It is probably better than a 2 but not a 3.

Forced Witness by Alex Cameron
Jun 11 2024

It has a distinct 80s sound but it was released in 2017. Some of the lyrics were humorous. I probably won't listen to it again but I will round up.

When Smoke Rises by Mustafa
Jun 12 2024

Eh. It was a short album, the rest was just there. No need to revisit.

Hand. Cannot. Erase. by Steven Wilson
Jun 13 2024

Not that great. It was too long for what it was. Nothing really stood out and the dial did not move much on it.

Enema Of The State by blink-182
Jun 14 2024

I have heard this album previously. I was surprised that it did not make the official list given what albums did make the list. I do not think I would revisit the entire album again but I would revisit several songs again. I will round up.

Cleopatra by The Lumineers
Jun 15 2024

Ugh the Lumineers. I just cannot stand them. Thankfully it was relatively short. Stay away

Jun 16 2024

It was all in Spanish, so I did not understand a word of it. It was alright. I wouldn't revisit it, but I would listen to it again.

10,000 gecs by 100 gecs
Jun 17 2024

It was not good. It was short that's about it. A lot of voice modulators. I did not care for it. It certainly did not need to be recommended to be included on this list.

Bloody Kisses by Type O Negative
Jun 18 2024

It was certainly was an album. The cover of Summer Breeze as metal song was interesting. I didn't hate it. It was a little long. I wont revisit. It is probably slightly better than a 2, but not much.

Silent Alarm by Bloc Party
Jun 19 2024

I had never heard of the band before. The songs were ok. Nothing great or memorable about them. I will not revisit

Version 2.0 by Garbage
Jun 20 2024

It was an alright album. I would visit it again although no one song stood out in particular

Stranger In Town by Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band
Jun 21 2024

Several well known songs. The first half of the album is better than the second half. I would revisit some of the songs. Better than a 3, not really a 4. I will round down.

Give Up by The Postal Service
Jun 22 2024

Eh. It was indie music and it was annoying. I made it through.

Sublime by Sublime
Jun 23 2024

It is a longer album, but it has a lot of well known songs. I have always been on the fence about Sublime. I would definitely listen to some of there songs again, but I do not have the desire to listen to everything by them.

McDonald and Giles by Ian McDonald
Jun 24 2024

Eh. It wasn't particularly good or bad. It was just there. No need to revisit it.
