User Albums Summary

Hey Siri, play Dear John by Taylor Swift

I've only generated 13 user albums so far and this is the 5th or 6th on that is 2 hours long.... This maybe would've been a 2 or 3 for me if this album was a reasonable length, but it just went on forever until I grew to despise it.

Wait, do I have to Beat the Clock? Or Beat the Clock?

I think you had to be a teenager in the 90s and have nostalgia blinders on to enjoy this one... it sounded like the same song over and over to me.

I get that punk has its place and is important for music history. It doesn't mean I enjoy listening to it at all. Sorry, people screaming and mumbling lyrics isn't really what I look for in music.

I already had my fill of The Stooges on the original list. Not going to spend another hour and a half listening to a low quality live album.

I'm so tired of listening to white British dudes make noises on this list

I have a terrible headache today already and this was just what I needed! /s

I honestly didn't mind this at first, but the longer it went on it just sounded like the same track over and over for 44 minutes...

I think I may have loved this if it had been on my radar while I was in college when it came out.... this sounds VERY 2005. Not really my cup of tea in the present day.

I had this album on repeat my freshman year of high school. I was worried it wouldn't age well but happy to say it still hit 25+ years later

As an 11-year-old gay boy, I loved this album when it came out. Some big hits that are still fun to hear... but in no way does this belong on any great albums list.

music taste sure is subjective, huh

bro sounds like Joe Keery. Or Joe Keery sounds like bro. Whichever you prefer

well at first this made me very angry but then it made me laugh a lot so take 3 stars I guess

Every once in a while, an album comes along that transports you to a specific time and place every time you listen to it. I moved to NYC in the fall after I graduated college. Modern Vampires of the City came out the following summer. This album will always remind me of my first summer in New York. This is by far my favorite Vampire Weekend album and I'm so glad to see it on the user list.

I was originally super annoyed to see yet another 2+ hour album on the user submission list... but I actually really dug this. I guess 2 hours isn't bad when you actually like the album!

There's no fucking way I'm listening to a 2 hour live album by Bruce Springsteen. I heard plenty of him on the original list. If you submit an album that is 2 hours long you're not a good person

I'm a big fan of their debut album as well as A.M so I was excited for this since I hadn't heard it yet. Now I know why I haven't heard it. Sorry. This was really boring.

An all-timer

Oh good.... another live album. This honestly wasn't too bad but I still don't think live albums should be included in this project. And the 15 min Ghostbusters cover was a bit much.

Leave the punk/ska trend in the 90s where it belongs. Genuinely have not listened to music like this since I was 12.

An all-time favorite for me. Transported right back to college. Happy to say this has aged really well.

This is the album that made me a Beyoncé fan. I considered submitting this as well, but I ended up going with her 2022 dance record Renaissance. I'm glad to see it here. It belonged on the original list. It's not surprise that the average user ratings for this album are higher than Renaissance. This is easily the most emotionally charged album of her career.

yeah sorry I hated this

Am I the only millennial who does not give af about MCR? Maybe. Not unlistenable or anything, just not something I would ever choose to listen to on my own.

This album was in my heavy rotation when it came out. Still enjoyable but didn't quite hit the same 20 years later. It's a shame Hide and Seek basically became a meme in the following years.

Not a big fan of the shouting singing style.

The audacity of this album being an hour and a half long...

I'm typically not crazy about Gorillaz but I actually really enjoyed this one. Much more my style than their older stuff.

only 26 minutes and I couldn't even force myself to finish. Bonus points for the TIE Fighter laster sound effect.

The three singles from this album are iconic. I found the rest to be fairly forgettable. Don't Speak is an all-timer for me so rating the album a 4 overall.
