Incredible. It's like the rhythm is hanging on by a thread and they keep trying to cut it with a saw. Definitely best played loud, but it isn't just noise. There is real music in there. This is what I listen to this list for. Something completely new.

I think I'm just tired of his whiny voice.

This is the Springsteen version of the shitty country that came out after 9/11. Obvious hard rhymes, predictable tropes in lyrics and instrumentation, corny turns of phrase. Further On even has him faking a country twang. _(´ཀ`」 ∠)_. A name for this genre could be "Boomer Chants" or "Boomer Feel Good".

Unique, technically proficient, interesting message. A big surprise for me.

This is the kind of music I'm doing this for. Completely unexpected and very interesting.

I Ain't The One has a surprising intro and sound. The rest of the album is classic. Amazing debut.

Great blues and amazing collaborations.

Interesting dive into the evolution of 70s/80s punk. A little repetitive.

Great to hear where all those songs everyone knows came from. I had no idea.

Interesting. Not my favorite genre though.

Not my style, but I can see why it was so influential.

Decent.

A nice dip into nostalgia. Not his best though.

Definitely McCartney. Pretty good.

Nothing special 90's music.

Much better punk album than the clash.

Prototypical RHCP album. A few amazing classics and lots of ok filler.

WTF is Mother? Good overall.

Not bad listening in the background.

Clearly talented, but not my type of music.

Meh.

Nice message, basic music.

Surprisingly good and a talented artist.

Not my cup of tea.

Pretty good.

Classic bit of 90s.

Strange

Amazing start to finish.

Interesting, and I can see how it was seminal.

eh.

Better than expected.

Amazing. It's a shame sitar didn't catch on better, but this album shows what could have been.

New addition to my library. Somehow missed them on their original release.

Interesting listen. Not incredibly special.

Now I know who the Pet Shop Boys are.

Never knew this existed. Great music.

Good stuff.

Starts strong, falls off toward the end.

Amazing start to finish.

Nothing special. He relies on the quality of his voice more than the quality of his lyrics and music.

Enjoyed more than I thought I would. Solid album.

Starts off ok and just goes downhill.

Simple and great.

OK

Amazing, interesting, experimental but still enjoyable to listen to.

Nice enjoyable music.

Classic punk. Holds up well. Definitely have to be in the right mood though.

Interesting mix of sounds and styles. I feel like it needs more than a single listen to catch up with it.

I never cared for radiohead, but I have a much better appreciation now. The music really holds up. I listened to more Radiohead and Thom gets a little whiney.

Amazing songwriting, but I can't handle the voice.

Good. Still not a big Rush fan though.

Interesting and easy listen. Not mind blowing, but good.

Raw youthful punk. Doesn't really stand out though.

Fun dark alternative rock.

Nice variety of chill music.

A cultural touchstone. So many lines that stuck in the cultural zeitgeist and that are still relevant today. It is indeed on like Donkey Kong.

Classic country and a great voice.

Nothing to say that hasn't been said.

Unique amazing energy. A ton of fun and great vibes. Go read about the intro guitar solo.

Two iconic songs, the rest are good but fall off a bit.

Cool stuff, I could only imagine how mind blowing it was 50 years ago.

A little out there for my tastes but great musicianship.

Motown throwback. Some great songs.

This is the kind of music I'm doing this for. Completely unexpected and very interesting.

Solid.

Very cool and ahead of it's time. Less kitschy than Gary Newman.

Experimental and a less cliche side of this time and place that isn't often heard in pop culture. Good listening.

Interesting, but not really my thing.

Good stuff. Great listening even if it isn't spectacular.

Never cared much for Bowie, but this was pretty good.

Ok.

More punk. ok.

Awesome, eclectic, fun.

Very cool band. Good mix of pop and experimental.

Good.

Classic but not outstanding.

Good thing I listened to the full dynamic range version or I wouldn't have been able to understand a word he said.

Like a knock-off Nora Jones. With a crappy beat box. Very much a product of the era it was released in.

Nice background music.

Unfortunate that they are forgotten as compared to the Beatles. Great stuff.

Amazing that a single musician could make the sound of a generation.

Surprisingly enjoyable and is a much better precursor to punk than some other bands.

Amazing and timeless.

Classic timeless rock.

Amazing representation of an underrated genre.

Certainly enjoyable and iconic of the era.

Interesting and better than expected.

OK

Unique sound. Not in love with the vocals.

Amazing sound for the time period. Can't believe I hadn't heard of them before.

Interesting, seminal country-rock. Very easy listening.

Makes me wish I understood what he was singing about, but even that isn't necessary to enjoy the funk.

Didn't love it.

Great stuff. Reminds me a bit of Frank Turner. Love the songs and messages.

Awesome stuff. Very enjoyable.

Nice.

Peak of the decade, and maybe the century. Incredible music through both albums.

Surprisingly good. Highly enjoyable. He gets a little whiney sounding.

So anyway, here's Wonderwall. Not sure they were ever going to be the next Beatles, but pretty good.

I had no idea. Amazing.

I've never really enjoyed Jazz, but this kept drawing me back with interesting rhythms and sounds and phrases.

I knew the hits of course, but the rest of this album is just as if not more amazing.

The fact that this isn't their "good" stuff is amazing. Incredible sounds of course.

Good indie music. Fairly unique for a genre that can become monotonous.

Extremely good and refreshing. Interesting beats, bass lines, lyrics, rhythms.

Smooth. I appreciate the live band.

Good jams, good messages.

Interesting flow and just "normal day" subject matter. Not sure I'm a huge fan though.

I wasn't high enough for this.

Love the folksy feel and Irish sounds. Like a Bob Dylan that can sing.

Pretty good, doesn't stand out.

I had heard of them but never heard them. Cool sound, very unique. Fun listen.

I know it's not true, but she sounds like a discount Sheryl Crow. Generic.

Easy to listen to while also kind of out there. This is a good space to explore.

Thumbs up.

You can hear so many modern styles in this music it's amazing.

Janis was definitely the highlight.

Mostly blah, but a few outstanding tracks.

Ok, gets whiney.

I appreciate the punk-lightness of this. Sort of like a 70's/80's Blink 182.

Good stuff. Love the blues songs in there.

Man I wish I was their drummer.

Very good. Exceptional guitars.

Fun wide range of songs with great lyrics.

Not normally a jazz person, but I thoroughly enjoyed this. Amazingly smooth and great listening.

I expected the back half to fall off in quality due to the number of tracks, but it was solid all the way through.

Doesn't quite click with me. Has some high points, but lots of middles.

Enjoyable, but a bit generic. Not sure why it's on the list.

Exactly as advertised. Great background music.

Thought it would drag in the second half, but that's where the interesting stuff is.

Some amazing stuff and some that isn't as great, but fun all the way through.

Interesting and the name definitely fits. I can see how this is experimental and could inspire other ideas.

Interesting to see the flow from the Beatles to glam. Some good tunes but kinda wanders around.

That was an experience. All over the place lyrically and musically. Feels experimental in some spots and highly polished in others. I'd never been exposed to anything beyond his radio stuff, so this was extremely cool.

I got this right after 1999. This isn't as much fun as 1999 but there's still some amazing music in here.

Still not a huge Bowie fan. Entertaining enough.

Classic. Amazing harmonies and really fun songs.

Hurt and a few others are amazing, but in some places it just sounds like an old guy talking.

Great slice of rock. Really enjoyed it.

Good classic rock

Much better than the other Common album that was on here. The Corner is amazing.

ok

Some great songs, too much sampling.

Cool, but not standout.

OK

A cool slice of grunge that I missed the first time around. Great vocals and guitars.

Great tunes and guitars.

My favorite electronic music so far.

Not my favorite U2, but obviously has some great songs.

Definitely pure punk and good listening at that.

Never heard of this at all, but it's good.

I wish country had gone more this direction. Pretty good, drags a little at the end.

Nice. Another artist I'd only heard of, but really dig his music.

Very good. Jazz like in some sections, experimental in others. Fun listen.

Good.

Smooth, good listening. Feels futuristic for the 50's.

Good, but not stand out.

Fun.

Cool to hear something I had no idea existed. There's also no way the movie wasn't inspired by his pseudonym on this album.

Quality music. New sound I hadn't heard.

Interesting, and I'd never listened to The Cure beyond the radio, but not. something I'll listen to every day.

I think I'm just tired of his whiny voice.

Gets kinda noisy in the middle.

Paint it Black is one of the best ever. The rest is a good blend of styles and songs. I'm more of a stones fan now.

I can see why he is so influential. As an album not sure I like having the songs repeated a few times, but they are all different.

Classic, but a little dated and repetitive. Amazing harmonies of course.

Meh

The best I've heard from her. Her voice still grates after a while, but some great songs.

Entertaining and smooth. I'll try out more of their stuff.

Great sound, and great non-violent message. Excellent features.

Not sure how Ozzy became the most famous one from the band, but the guitar is killer on this.

Some really cool sounds in here. I can tell why it's so influential.

Definitely early punk rock. Super cool slice of history.

Not a huge fan, but distinct sound.

Interesting, but I think their other work is better. Great to hear where the later sounds started.

It's legendary for a reason.

Made me realize that Radiohead is the modern Pink Floyd. Really accessible experimental music.

Interesting, and I had never heard of them. Some cool ideas in here.

This is how legends are made. Not a Nirvana fan, but this concert is amazing.

Great.

So many hits and great rhythms.

Sounds like a bizarro world Bowie, but I can hear how this has influenced a bunch of artists that followed.

Album is pretty good, but it was good to learn about LL Cool J's early career.

Not my favorite, and I think it shows the tendency of this list to focus on the UK too much.

Great voice, but this album doesn't even seem to be her best. It gets a little repetitive after a while too.

Good all around rock.

Very interesting fusion on some of the songs, and some just generally fun ones.

Better than expected and a coincidence that it came up right after we finished Stranger Things.

Like most things to do with Oasis, this is over rated. I can see why it stood out in the early 90's though.

Good rock.

Perfect encapsulation of what it advertises to be with no apologies, and some great songs to go with it.

Not sure it's important from a music point of view, but it's interesting experimental music.

I'm becoming a fan of more 80's music, but this is the crappy side.

Still not a Bowie music fan, but this is my favorite so far.

Fun music, very different. Not sure if it's an every day listen, but enjoyable.

Reflective of this list's bias toward Britain, but this is actually a very good album.

May be my favorite Queen album. Brighton Rock is amazing. Killer Queen too of course. Great and widely varied tunes all the way through.

Can definitely hear the roots of the early Beatles and many other groups in this. Great listening too.

Not sure about best rock debut ever, but pretty rockin' stuff.

Great music.

Interesting, but not stand out.

I like it.

Great classic rock and tons of energy.

Enjoyable and surprisingly close to country music given it's origin in Britain.

All I knew was brown eyed girl previously. This was a great listen.

A bit repetitive and not really my type of music, but that album cover is everything.

Unique, technically proficient, interesting message. A big surprise for me.

I didn't know the music from Nightmare before Christmas was a genre, but this is it. Very good.

Not sure how I'd classify this, but surprisingly good. Kind of like an analog EDM. ADM?

Never really knew what Steely Dan did. This is a great introduction and has some amazing songs.

Incredible rock songs mixed with some psychedelic songs and all good. The electric organ is my favorite.

Didn't realize that this is Zappa. Intricate and widely varied.

Amazing as expected. Very approachable hard rock. Great message. Interesting music.

Like a proto nine inch nails mixed with 80s punk sensibilities. So much energy and angst, but still listenable.

A little whiney, but some of the songs were better than I thought they would be, and the queen is indeed dead.

Good, but nothing really stands out.

I only disdained Nirvana from the radio play and the fans. I had never heard the harder songs, and the entire album is great unfortunately. Ugh.

Good, but not outstanding.

Finnish glam rock, and it was actually decent. Will wonders never cease?

Very good. Love the driving rhythms. Will be listening to more of Talking Heads.

One of the best ever. Amazing album all the way through. Mookie Blaylock though?

Ok, I like the touches on folk stuff.

Good, some stand out tracks.

Excellent and a breath of fresh air compared to standard rock from then or now.

Wasn't aware of what genre Wilco fell into, but enjoyable music.

Impressive that this is all improvisational, and some amazing lines in there. Not my thing, but belongs on this list for sure.

Definitely would have been killer to be there live. Great album.

Not really my thing.

Incredible music. On a full Stevie binge now.

Fun, clever, good music. A unique slice.

Well they ain't no Oasis.

Very good zoning in and getting work done music. I love the depth and layers of sounds going on. Should use my headphones next time.

Groovin just doesn't fit with the rest. So much better, but some of the other songs are pretty good too.

Amazing voice, the deeper cuts start to border on cheesey/whiney.

Excellen

Very interesting and fun. Great background music.

Meh

The last song is pretty good. The rest just kind of blends into each other.

Incredible. It's like the rhythm is hanging on by a thread and they keep trying to cut it with a saw. Definitely best played loud, but it isn't just noise. There is real music in there. This is what I listen to this list for. Something completely new.

Just kinda is.

A unique mix of sounds. Didn't really click with me.

An amazing slice of history. Hard to tell if they are joking most of the time, but legit good music.

Very good and can definitely hear the influences they had on future artists in many of the songs. Way ahead of their time.

Entertaining if a bit cynical. It's interesting to hear the musical parodies. They're good enough to easily identify what genre/song/etc they're going after.

Good but didn't stick with me too long.

Starts strong but kind of fades in interest. I almost really liked the album.

Some old time country punk.

Very smooth, great jazz.

I can hear the roots of all of my favorite music in this and the other Pixies releases. This is an amazing missing link to find in my music appreciation history.

Better than Bryter Layter I think. Great music.

Incredible and fun concept. Great tunes, but the second half slows down a bit.

Mostly great songs that still hold up. Hearing them in high quality vs. on the radio really helps them shine.

I get it, you like Elvis Costello, but choose one album. They all sound the same.

An interesting listen in contrast to later Bee Gees. Definitely some hints of Beatles in here.

Can definitely hear how this influenced future music. Also just super fun and high energy by itself.

Good, but didn't stand out too much.

Some great Steely Dan. Falls off a bit in the second half.

Amazing voice, under-remembered.

Cool sound, I'm digging deeper into them.

Best song ever and the rest of the songs are great too.

Ok, but feels like another result of the bias towards England/UK artists.

Enjoyable if not standout.

Some interesting points, but meh.

Better than Mellow Gold. The whole album holds up and Where It's At is the lynch pin to the whole thing. Also, check out The Frogs, where the "that was a good drum break" comes from.

Interesting mix of music, and her voice is much better than I though coming from mainly Heart of Glass.

Lots of fun and great rhythms.

This is where the Jackass riff comes from! The lyrics remind me a bit of e e cummings at some points. The instrumentals vary from creative and flowing to punk repetition.

OK, not super amazing.

Some cool stuff, and not many people have led zeppelin as a backing band, but just didn't click with me.

Incredible really. The natural progression of where punk/grunge/garage should grow up to. Cool history of being on the edge of internet stardom, but not part of the corporate machine.

Another classic from CCR. Not all of it is as strong as Cosmo's Factory, but Born on the Bayou is amazing of course.

An excellent slice of some great country music. Dwight has a classic voice and some great songs.

Really enjoyable and I don't tend to like sample loops. Guru is just super chill and smooth.

Good music, just didn't click with me.

Despite the subject matter, this feels playful like some pre-teens making up rhymes in front of their mirror. It's gangsta rap that isn't taking itself too seriously yet and hasn't been sold out yet. I can also hear the beginnings of the funk part of g-funk. Ren has the best flow. Something 2 Dance 2 is ridiculous with a Mighty Mouse sample and teasing bad words.

Good pure rock. Nothing stands out as amazing, but a collection of good songs.

Great all around, with some peak CCR songs. Still like Cosmos better, but amazing what they put out in such a short amount of time.

Hard to find. Incredible slice of history, and unfortunately still applicable. Great messages and great music.

Strange mix of NiN, Gorillaz, and Bowie. Feels a bit over-wrought. Not terrible though.

How does anyone take his voice seriously? A couple of the songs are bearable, but Make You Feel My Love sounds like he's playing a terrible joke on me.

No one falls in love to Pavement.

I know they're seminal to grunge and all, but not my favorite.

Interesting and very sonic youthy.

An interesting piece of music history. 2tone, early ska, and their roots. The music is good for the most part. There is a definite British bias in this list, but this album deserves to be on here due to it's unique place in British music and culture.

I assume this sounds so classic because it is the standard. Very enjoyable and a nice change of pace from so much brit-pop.

Some cool tunes and got me listening to more of his stuff. Supremely talented.

Stolen or not, it's elevated rock music and each instrument/voice is incredible.

Deserves 5 stars for the album art alone. Great guitar rock if a little immature in the lyrics. All fun.

Not really my style, but well made music.

Kinda blah, but in a good way.

Fun, but just doesn't quite click. Some good songs and unique covers though.

Doesn't really stand out. Almost a 2.

Sounds kinda generic.

The lyrics to Walk this Way didn't age well, but classic hard rock. Hard to beat Sweet Emotion.

Not too shocking.

Sounds the same way a teenager flexing in the mirror looks.

Some neat twists and unexpected shifts in genres.

I had heard of k d lang, and knew what she looked like, but never realized she was a country singer. She has a great voice, and this album was some good classic country.

So much energy. This sounds, tastes, and smells like the counter culture 60s. Makes me want to be at the concert. Rama lama fa fa fa and kick out the jams mother fuckers.

I can hear the boomer in these songs. Sounds like my father in law (who loves dylan). His voice isn't as annoying, but the harmonica gets grating. The lyrics feel more nonsensical than deep.

Steve Winwood and rock flute. There's nothing better. Good fold album all around.

Yep, that's punk alright.

Important music and a good listen.

The root of modern metal and it shows. Lots of the tropes found in metal can be found right here.

Each song is amazing. More than just Jimi's singing and guitar, the rest of the band is great. It's a perfect blend. I used to be a fan of Electric Ladyland, but I think this is better.

Pure fun all the way through. Left skidmarks on my heart.

Maybe it's just not my thing, but nothing stood out about this album. Seemed a bit childish at points as well.

Before even knowing the history I heard the Beatles. Very talented musician, and now I know where a few more of those famous songs come from.

A requirement when learning the history of punk.

Stevie is amazing. Every song is him and they are all pretty much perfect.

EDM and such just doesn't usually do it for me. Would be fine playing in the background at Old Navy.

Good, but the noise gets a bit tiresome.

He likes to have dissonant sounds in his samples. He has a nice flow that pairs well with it though.

Pretty great harmonies and rhythms. Gets a little repetitive, but enjoyable overall.

Great metal. Raw feel, not over produced.

Not their best, but pretty close. Kashmir is worth it by itself. Also fun hearing the extra "b-sides" they threw in to flesh out the album.

Not a jazz person normally, but this was very enjoyable and had some really cool moments.

Way better than Dylan. Clever songs, great simple melodies. Super fun album.

He learned how to hold long notes on the harmonica! But really, this is a better Dylan album with less of the vocal annoyance, and more of the blues.

Amazing album, but I had never really heard Here Today. You can hear how it influenced so much after it in that one song.

Fun and recognizable.

Mostly random strumming. Some songs sounded like a dog giving birth. Just feels like someone real high threw shit at the wall to see what stuck.

Can't beat that opening bass line. So much funk on this album, and just plain fun. A little slow in the ending, but solid overall.

An eclectic collection of beats. Kinda sounds like generic resort music. Fun is a word invented by executives? Just a bit stereotypical for this time period and the album cover.

Great guitar parts, but the drums stand out on this one too. I think this is my favorite Dire Straits album.

Never realized this was the first rock opera. Love the format and the album.

A unique slice of jazz. I could actually hear how this influenced DMB during one of the songs.

Definitely some angst on this one. Doesn't click with me as enjoyable listening.

Very unique. Feels like actually being in a Jazz club. The combination of Waits' way of being and the amazing band creates a great experience.

Not prime Beatles, but some solid songs including Imagine. Sounds like someone trying to change and regretting their past.

An eclectic mix with some good songs. Overall didn't strike a chord with me like his previous albums.

Some great rock tunes and a unique blend of rock plus synths. Really still holds up.

Some very interesting rhythms and harmonies throughout. I'll probably need to give it another listen to see if it sticks more the second time. Definitely a good listen.

A little slice of history. A bit dated, but still some good songs. There are definitely a few low points, but not so low as to overshadow the highs.

Classic pop. Some strange songs on here, but all enjoyable.

I can hear the Beatles influence in some tracks despite the language barrier. I like the idea of a music collective putting out an album.

Bowie is generally overrated as a musician, but this album shines with it's R&B sound. Young Americans, Fame, and Across the Universe are enjoyable. The Blues/Rock feel on a few others is fun as well. And Luther is apparently on this album too!

As someone not very experienced with jazz, this is a bit unapproachable for me. Though there were moments where I could definitely feel the music.

A revelation of hip hop and sampling. So much going on in this album. Great lyrics, great samples, great music. Really a Beastie + Dust Bros. mashup.

Incredible and was mind blowing when it came out. Had never heard any of the deep cuts, but they are great too.

Good, but by no means as good as some people claim.

A unique and enjoyable album. Some Beatles-esque tracks, and lots of unique uses of "found sounds".

Good, but not standout.

A smooth album with great imagery. Reminds me a bit of Harvey Danger's Little by Little.

It has its moments, but just didn't stand out.

Some interesting points, but definitely not the greatest album ever.

Iconic intro and hard rocking all the way through. Some of the best singing, drumming, and writing in classic rock.

Underrated band due to not quite fitting into a single mold. Great vocals and guitars. Some extremely catchy songs. The record scratching is usually tasteful, but goes off the rails a little on one track.

Great album cover, pretty good album. Could definitely feel Bowie and the Beatles in here.

Definitely Steely Dan. Not as good as Aja.

A great collection of harmony and instrument heavy tracks. Feels like a lost Beatles album at some points. The rest of the songs build up perfectly to Bohemian Rhapsody.

A nice slice of Senegalese music. Enjoyable even if I didn't understand anything words.

Bjork is an amazing artist beyond just the music. There was a lot of care and thought put into making this album, and you can really hear it. Lots of subtle sounds, and evocative music. Not my normal jam, but definitely worth a few listens.

Feels more like jazz than anything. The reviews of the time called it pretentious, but I don't get that feeling at all. It's not flashy, but the whole thing is enjoyable.

I really don't want to like Aerosmith, but they make some really catchy rock songs.

Great album. Never really thought about movie soundtracks being concept albums, but that's exactly what they are. The circle from Pusherman to Superfly is epic.

I'm afraid I just don't get why this stands out enough to be on this list.

I feel dirtier for having listened to this. I tried to keep an open mind, but too much braggadocio and too many cliches. Kid Rock is definitely a carefully created and maintained image and a success of modern marketing, but the music is trash even if there are a few catchy riffs.

Great instrumentals, but her voice gets a little repetitive/grating.

The first emo album? It's Frank, so quality, but doesn't stand out for any particular reason.

I think the six track version would have been perfect, I could only find the 14 track 1995 remaster. The Who are definitely at their best live, but with this many tracks Moon's drums get a little repetitive and there isn't much variety in the fundamental guitar tone.

Good overall, not as good as her later stuff.

There's an enjoyable ebb and flow of emotions throughout. A lot of the lyrics feel a bit forced in to complete the story though. Some really cool sounds and effects created.

Again, I can appreciate the lyricism, creativity, and expression, but the subject matter and lifestyle don't resonate.

Definitely can hear the Beatles and Dylan influences. Not much dynamics in the vocals (like Dylan), but the lyrics are good.

It feels like the recording is limiting the dynamics of his voice. Tons of range and emotion. Definitely hits its stride in the second half.

Some great tunes, but tends to just noise in the end.

Of course incredibly juvenile and violent, but amazing at the same time. Not an every day listener for me, but I can appreciate the effort put into the rhymes/lyrics/stories. Pissing off puritans is fun too.

Super enjoyable and creative. Started to drone on a bit toward the end of the album, but hung on as a great one.

I can see why he was so popular. Lots of good tunes here.

Incredible that I've never heard of her. Great album with real depth to the music. Listened to some of her new stuff and it is also still extremely good.

Good. It has a slight taste of Steely Dan, but is definitely it's own thing. Very enjoyable.

An incredible mix of anger, humor, love, and rage. Not an every day listen for me, but great to hear.

More like Captain Tryhard. Sure there are some interesting things in here, but that's just because he threw everything at the wall he could find. meh

This is one of those "oh, that's who made that song" moments. Overall I love the simplicity and enjoy the cynical lyrics. May not be great in large doses, but the album is great.

I was familiar with the singles before listening to the album, but all of the songs have a great energy. Not a lot of variety, but it's great at what it does.

Doesn't sound all that special to me. Sure there are some nice bits, but kinda meh.

This is like an over achieving high school garage band, but you can tell there is tons of potential here. Fun lyrics, fun music. Great Boston references too. Never thought I'd hear "Massachusetts" used in a song.

Interesting sounds I guess. Cool band name.

The opener is amazing of course. The rest is good, but kinda trails off.

Compact and effective. Nothing gets tiresome, and the pace just keeps going.

Hits you in the face with blues, then some more, and even a little jazz. Some of my favorite Clapton.

Ok, mostly generic with a few standouts.

Almost my favorite RHCP album. Great blend of their signature funk with darker and slower influences. The lyrics even make sense sometimes.

Amazing voice of course, and some of the top classics of all time.

Some high points, but not really stand out for me.

Not sure what to make of this one.

A couple of killer songs and some that fall pretty flat. Would be a great single.

Kinda dig it, then kinda don't.

Very listenable, but nothing really caught my ear either.

Starts out strong and has a couple of amazing songs. Ends a bit weak, but good overall.

Very good. Just very solid all around. Some taste of the Beatles in there, some Dylan (with a better voice). A nice variety of songs.

Definitely has the ambiance of space. Not a daily listener for me, but good for what it is. Feels like Disney world Space Mountain music or something.

Pretty good, and of course the That 70's Show theme is in there.

Amazing voice and a few legendary songs, but having a song called "Keep Getting it On" on this album is a step too far.

Good though seems a bit overhyped. Gets a bit repetitive by the end.

Meh

Great album. Can hear hints of lots of great bands and musical styles.

Some good tunes. Love the sax. A little too much fuzz on the vocals and throughout.

They had me in the first half, I'm not gonna lie. But the second half wasn't nearly as exciting. I do like this better than other Nick Cave stuff I've listened to.

Just amazing to listen to. The non-singles are as good as the singles.

Yep, Stuck in a Moment is as cheesy as I remember. Tons of other good songs on here though. I want to hate it, but it's actually good.

Ok.

Pretty good for electronic. Not sure it accomplishes its goal though.

Surprisingly surprising. Much deeper than I was expecting, and great tunes.

Some clever sounds, and is definitely experimental. I can tell why it didn't catch on in the US.

I had no idea what was going on, but I could feel the intent of the songs and power of his singing.

I don't get why this is on this list. Very blah and superficial.

Starts strong, ends a little weak.

A great album, made amazing by the fact it was almost entirely solo. Definitely some Beatles influences in there. I had no idea how old it was because the music holds up so well.

Stronger all the way through than some of his other ones. Good continuous theme as well.

Great writing and great performing throughout. So many classic songs in one place.

Not what I was expecting from Black Sabbath at all. The styles are kind of all over the place. Good individual songs, but doesn't hold any sort of theme together.

Energy and ability. Definitely the spirit of punk.

Lives up to its name.

Now I get Neil Young. Great songwriting.

Reading how this was made is extraordinary. The sounds are ok.

Some interesting fusion music, but she's just an idiot trying to sound deeper than she is.

It's definitely French.

You can hear him having fun and ramping up into the energy. Great mix of comedy and heartfelt songs. A really interesting slice of history.

Fun in places, but just feels messy in others.

Good stuff.

A punk band turned into the worst of the 80s. Back to the British bent of this list.

This is one of those times where the original sounds a little dated because everything after it copied it. Missy is uniquely fun. Not her best, but very good.

With the strings, falsetto, and smoothness, this sounds like a modern soul album. Sparse but biting lyrics and unique melodies and instrumentation.

Peak U2 for me I think. Great mix of pop-ish hits and fold/country. Heartfelt messages.

Love ODB. This is a fun album that is more of the direction early 90's rap should have gone. Pokemon was even inspired by the line "Your whole damn posse be catchin' 'em all, cause you vic'd.

Got a little taste of a Sandler comedy CD. He obviously acknowledges it as childish with the beats used and the font on the cover. Even coming in prepared it elicits a response on several tracks, so I guess that makes it art.

Fairly generic. Maybe it's the mixing or the simplistic drums. Young's voice sounds thin and not in the same room. Some decent guitars sprinkled throughout.

I'd never really heard this part of the Genesis catalog. Very enjoyable and some amazing skill went into this.

Didn't stand out.

Yoko Ono meets the Pixies meets something entirely unique.

Meh

Really catches the heart of Texas country. A great listen with clever lyrics and good dance songs.

An interesting insight into the man behind the hits. I enjoy the uniqueness of a lot of the songs.

Some good songs, quintessential Young. Still doesn't quite jive with me.

Some interesting ideas, can hear the stereotypical 80's sound for sure.

I'll blame this on the British focus of this list. Nothing spectacular, though it's ok.

A good opening side, followed by an amazing collection of "discarded" songs. The crown princes of melancholy.

Putting aside my prejudice against Korn from back then, a lot of these songs just rock. The Ice Cube feature is actually an interesting addition. Could have done without Fred Durst though. Gets a little repetitive by the end.

Mostly didn't really stand out, but Why d'Ya Do It? was good and unique even if it drug on for a while.

This is the Springsteen version of the shitty country that came out after 9/11. Obvious hard rhymes, predictable tropes in lyrics and instrumentation, corny turns of phrase. Further On even has him faking a country twang. _(´ཀ`」 ∠)_. A name for this genre could be "Boomer Chants" or "Boomer Feel Good".

I like it. I'm so tired of Sex on Fire that I just tuned out these guys, but they make some good music.

She should get together with Tom Waits (just based on the first song). Maybe she inspired Lisa Loeb a bit? They do share Duncan Sheik as a common thread...

I caught glimpses of the Matrix and NiN. It's interesting how the Noire type aesthetic ties into the sounds of Industrial music. Replace the instruments with more synths and you're basically there. Alfred Hitchcock Presents is pretty trippy. Great example of an album that belongs on this list.

Starts off promising, but fizzles a bit. An interesting band and story. Great name!

Folk Punk may be my favorite genre.

I wish I'd heard this one first. It eases you into future Bjork music.

There's definitely style, but it gets a bit repetitive.

Big fan of Frontier Psychiatrist. I was a bit slow getting into this, but it's growing on me. Very creative. The best I've heard of the genre.

Great guitars, ok vocals. Good overall.

Great folk, and great voice.

Interesting and unique. Not an every day listener for me.

Gets a little repetitive, but enjoyable all the way through.

Wow, was decent until Born to Be Wild. Oof.

Perfect level of snark, but with his voice I had a hard time getting Toy Story out of my mind at first.

This is now as old as the music it is paying tribute to was when it was released. The fact that it still holds up is testament to it being it's own amazing creation. Tons of fun.

Very creative. I had no idea O'Malley's Bar was so long because it is engrossing.

Touches on innovative but slips into boring sometimes for me. Overall good.

Very Beatles-esque which was the style at the time. Unique in it's own way for sure though. Probably requires a second listen through to fully vet.

Still not my favorite genre, but you can hear the talent in the flow, lyrics, and story.

Unique and very listenable despite the lack of understanding of the words.

A unique blend of sounds. Not sure what to do with it though.

Simple and straight forward delivery of complex thoughts on complex social issues. Chuck D plus Flav is a classic recipe for cold medina. This album is the root of much of the hip hop to follow.

It's ABBA. Insanely catchy, but not my thing.

You can feel the anger in this music, and the desire for improvement.

Ok album. Nothing really stood out beyond the story of the band and the name.

Snoop has good flow, but Dre's beats really make this album. Not my favorite subject matter, but hard to deny the music.

It may have stood out for its time, but just blends into the background with 30 years past.

Definitely a unique sound. A little monotonous, but good throughout.

There's a lot to digest here. Not the most listenable album, but definitely worth listening to for the ideas and imagery it spontaneously generates.

Good. Not standout.

His voice is in between extremes for me on this one. The acoustic set was mostly pretty good. I get that it was a big change, but the electric set is pretty good. I wish they'd left more audience interaction in. The cuts are somewhat sudden.

Comes off as trying to be edgy for edgy sake. Very 2000 of them. The theremin, synth sounds, pseudo heartbeat, ending monologue are all a bit cliche of the time.

Another hidden (from me) influence on much of the music I enjoy. Great punk listen.

Interesting effects and sounds. Even while being experimental, it's very listenable. Not sure if it's on the list, but Solid Air is a superior album.

Didn't really stick with me.

Amazing album top to bottom. Run for Your Life is a little creepy, but still a great tune. The intro riff to Drive My Car is as iconic as any riff in history. The album has all of what made the Beatles unique and is definitely a turning point.

I love Method's voice and flow. The album is solid.

I don't rate these based on expanded editions and such, but the anniversary/expanded editions of this one have some great songs as well (including Mrs. Robinson). Overall a bit generic, even with a unique sound, but quality music.

Some good songs, Emmylou Harris deserves as much credit as Gram though.

Good for what it is, but their life story is more interesting.

Amazing voice, and suits folk so well. Behind the Wall is a moving song. Raw emotion and honesty throughout. Great debut.

Honestly incredible. I probably feel the way Dave did when he first heard the music in Turkey.

Frustratingly hard to rate this as an album as Apple Music only has a smattering of songs, and youtube is full of ads. Some very good musicianship in these songs. The tempo feels repetitive across songs, but they're all interesting.

That opening bass hit is great. Unique sound focused in the bass end. A good mix between punk/alternative/almost metal.

Some interesting concepts and sounds. Doesn't stand out for me though.

Everything says these guys are punk, but the songs are way too long for that. The bass and organ really give this the uniqueness it deserves. The organ is the most genius thing in Sometimes.

Tom Waits is always good for something new. Soldier's Things is surprisingly heartfelt and straight down the middle. The instruments/sounds used throughout are interesting. Somehow the songs all hang together despite having the initial feeling of being tattered and threadbare.

Alternative country is an apt name. A little like the "country" songs the Beatles made. Fun.

A bit over-wrought, but still enjoyable. A bit country in some spots which is fun.

Definitely experimental, but still has some very catchy riffs and rhythms.

Experimental, a little rocky horror feeling in there, definitely can hear Eno.

Well you can feel the emotion he puts into the songs. Check the lyrics to Amsterdam if you'd like to expand your mind a bit.

I listened to Taylor's Version of course because she deserves the royalties. Undeniably catchy songs. There may be some filler with all the extra songs vs. the original.

Based on the cover with the messy black hair and the upside down flag I was expecting more American Idiot than Country for Idiots. Cheesy lyrics and bad solos make up most of this album. I think this guy got lucky with timing and having a vaguely familiar name. Things improve a little toward the end with Tina Toledo, still a bit generic though.

Wonderful, another British electronic group. They have a unique sound, but still house music. Fine for playing in the background. The tone changes quite a bit toward the end.

Definitely enjoyable and non-stop. Great all the way through.

A coke fueled product of its time. If you like synths and whining, you'll love this.

Melancholy and smooth. A little on the nose in spots, but enjoyable.

"Promentalshitbackwashpsychosis Enema Squad (The Doo Doo Chasers)" is more prescient now than it has ever been. Funkadelic can always be relied on to open your mind just a little more. Music to get your shit together by. The prune juice of the mind.

From calm to frantic there is incredible playing throughout this recording. Watch the video on youtube for an idea of how much work it is.

Still not a huge fan of Bowie's music. Good enough stuff on here, and the story of the album is entertaining.

There are some good guitar riffs in there, but the whiny self referential lyrics just suck. It also gets repetitive the longer you listen to it. Could have done with 5 fewer songs on the album. At least the outro is kind of self aware.

It's bubblegum pop, but she shows much more range than I realized she had at the time. Quintessential Y2K pop album. Could have been ~5 songs shorter though.

The quality isn't consistent throughout, but the high points are very high. Bonus points for uniqueness. I love the mix of cultures and musical styles throughout.

Not my type of music, but I can hear the difference between this and what came before. I can see it being revolutionary for the right groups.

I was into it for the first half, then it kinda goes off the rails. I can see where the reviewers came up with "pretentious" to describe it. Not terrible, just very uneven.

Has to be one of the best first five songs on a debut album, or even any album. The combination of distortion, acoustic guitars, electric organ, harmonies, and lead vocals is incredible. The album art is amazing as well. The baroque elements, especially on Smokin' are very interesting and fit right in somehow.

Nothing stands out, feels derivative. Poor Lil Rich is just obnoxious.

Experimental but still enjoyable. The emotions are palpable in several songs. The drums are plain but driving. The guitars are searching for the tune, and kind of oscillating around it.

Just how I like it, 28 tracks on a single album and still only 41 minutes long. No song is long enough to get bored of. Most of the songs are like a tease, and I want more, but I know more wouldn't be better.

Not a fan of everything including the title and album art are "borrowed". They seem to take the uniqueness that other people have made, and put a small twist to take credit due to their bigger audience.

I've always almost liked QotSA, but I'd never heard this album. This album I really enjoyed. Great variety and some unique sounds. Not too produced.

Great album cover. Songs are decent.

Amazing voice. Not overly produced, just piano and great singing.

It seems to excel in the blues, you need to have actually felt the blues. These guys have had that, and despite the language barrier you can feel it in this music. The mixture of instruments and rhythms create an amazingly distinct genre of music.

Decent, not my favorite.

The Monkees are a great facsimile of the Beatles on this album. Some of the songs even sound like yet to be released songs at the time. Great harmonies and a unique twist on the sound.

Fun pop music. Wouldn't really call it stand out, but I'm sure at the time and with the visual elements (music videos, live shows, etc) it would be mind blowing.

Decent rock, not stand out.

Meh. Just ok.

Amazing start to finish. REM has an incredible ability to go from poppy-happy songs to these dark brooding songs and fit perfectly.

Sounds of the age it was made, but doesn't stand apart from the other music of the time.

Classic metal and very enjoyable.

Another amazing chapter in the Zeppelin catalog. A nice departure to more acoustic sounds.

Although maybe not a daily listener, it is the peak of what it is. Need western/cowboy music? This is it. Great imagery and stories as well.

Definitely Talking Heads. Maybe simpler than their later stuff?

A unique sound, adjacent to the Beach Boys maybe.

Really not my thing. I don't really even notice when the songs change.

Really didn't enjoy it.

Unique approach and enjoyable listen. I found this amazing for background music while working, but also interesting as a focused listen.

A unique approach. Nothing stood out for me, but good for background.

Now this is what I call psychedelic music! All that other stuff is just watered down imitation psychedelia.

Smooth, a bit somber. Feels somewhat over-wrought. The vocals don't have the strength to carry the so-so lyrics. Some songs like Test Me have a knock-off Taylor Swift feel.

I generally enjoy Jane's Addiction, but it is one of those bands where you have to get past the voice. The instrumentals in this one are great though. On second listen through, I got past the voice and upped my rating.

Super chill music, unless you listen closely to the lyrics. Unfortunately still applicable today.

This seems like a legit hidden gem. The guitars are amazing and unique. The lyrics and vocals fit perfectly. The band just kind of disappeared after this album so it didn't gain a huge following. Great find on this list.

The Stones aren't my favorite band, but I think they out rank the Beatles for maybe not shining quite as bright at their peak, but shining almost that bright over 60 years while maintaining their identity. Hearing the very beginning of that journey is amazing, even if most of the songs are covers at this early point in their career.

Ok, but seems a bit shallow.

Eh, a few standout spots but nothing that sticks with me.

I kind of hate "Epic" due to excessive radio play and obnoxious vocals, but this album has surprising range. Overall the "hit" single brings this album down in my opinion. Even the cover of War Pigs was surprisingly good.

Certainly unique. A fun blend of different influences.

Pretty straight forward early punk.

Some standout guitars, and provoking lyrics for sure.

Morrissey is definitely not my cup of tea. Some decent lyrics, but the music kills me.

This is to NiN what Chuck Berry was to the Beatles. Industrial isn't always my thing, but I can appreciate this for what it is.

Some very high highs, some very generic lows, but great album overall.

I received this album as a reward for returning a wallet as a child. I had no idea who Jimi was, and this album blew my mind. From the moment ...And the Gods Made Love started playing, the insane sounds coming from my speakers were a totally new experience. Now as an adult I appreciate even more the skill and craftsmanship that went into creating this album. Every song innovates in ways to create new sounds from a guitar, but they are always in service to the song.

Some great songs, her cover of Let's Stay Together really adds something. However, 1984 should be dropped I think...

Awful 80's sound effects and cheesy raps. Not good.

Blue Orchid opens exactly as you'd predict for a White Stripes album, and from there it explores a bunch of new places. PIano, marimba, bluegrass etc. Great all the way through.

Entertaining and a fun mix of music and story.

Distinctive, but not exciting. Interesting themes, but his vocals get repetitive.

Immediately reminds me of Flaming Lips, but better in general I think. Wide variety of music, and a shocking breadth of lyrics.

I can appreciate the punkness and the musicianship, but it just doesn't jive with me for some reason.

This is a refreshing one. Unique, amazing, entertaining. I loved it by track 2.

Eh, doesn't stand out.

Some bangers in here.

It's definitely Tom Waits. Not my favorite of his, but interesting at least.

The industrial sound of the album is interesting. Some of the samples are a bit cliche. The lyrics are occasionally poignant, but I think this is around the time he lost his mind. So some of the "genius" attributed to this album is closer to "madness".

Smooth and surprisingly well produced for 2000's era pop.

Deeper Understanding is surprisingly applicable today given when this was released. Great vocals and imagery throughout.

Sound like off-brand Bloodhound Gang, who are themselves off-brand quality. Not sure why this is on the list. Falls off pretty hard in the second half.

Pretty decent punk.

Each song is unique and amazing. Definitely the best of the Seattle grunge genre, maybe the best of the 90's.

Great hits and great tunes throughout.

Poetry set to music. Tones of American IV by Johnny Cash.

Kind of drone-y, ok ish. Their inspiration, Galaxie 500, is better.

Definitely early days of hip-hop. They really liked their electronic beats.

Much more straight forward rock than I expected. Drifts back to more Doors style in the second half.

Not even sure how to categorize this, but each song is amazing in its own way.

Amazing songs as usual. They all have their own intricacies, but Little Wing, Bold as Love, and Castles Made of Sand stand out for me.

Great beats and messages. Classic hip-hop.

Now that's fucking punk

Folk-like, but more complex compositions. Great creativity of guitar and drum interactions.

A wide variety of sounds and textures. Unique and familiar at the same time.

A perfect album. I can listen to it and enjoy it all the way through at any time. The musical themes repeated throughout are just icing on the cake.

Yes

Treads the line of being "indie" to be "indie" fairly well. Sometimes a bit abstract or weird just to be that way, but overall enjoyable.

Probably would have loved this in Jr. High or Highschool. Interesting mix of soft vocals and hard guitars. Feels like a smattering of different styles of early 90's rock-pop.

Unique with a nice flow. Not as obnoxious as a lot of US rap gets.

Simple and without the overly synth-y sound of the 80's.

Feels Sgt. Pepper-esque, but its own thing. Each song is interesting in its own way. The message throughout is great. There's even the Ringo song in "All of My Friends Were There".

We will Fall kinda puts a cramp on the flow of the album.

Ok, but not standout.

Frenetic and controlled at the same time.

Great country. Not overdone or hokey, just quality.

She has a good voice, but doesn't show a whole lot of range on this. It gets a bit repetitive.

Great stuff. You can really hear the care they put into their music.

Xylophone Solo

Great album and stands up to all but the best of the Beatles. The band is just great all around, vocals, drums, guitar, bass.

A blast out of time. Feels modern and vintage at the same time. Almost saccharin sweet. I feel like the harmonies aren't quite as perfect as Beach Boys, but very close.

An assault on the ears with lulls just long enough to prepare you for the next assault. There is plenty of quality and enjoyability here for this to not be on the lowest ranked albums though.

Good stuff

Ridiculous, incredible, ludicrous, amazing, insane, brilliant.

Experimental and from the heart.

Skillfully made, but nothing really clicked with me. I wonder how Piss Aaron turned out.

Ok, folksy. Didn't really stand out.

I prefer Tigermilk.

Interesting if not my style.

There's a consistent sound or feel throughout that becomes a bit repetitive. It may be a feeling of being over produced. Either way I kind of enjoyed some of the songs, but not quite.

May be my favorite of the Doors. The music holds up, and even sounds experimental despite being largely straight blues.

Good if not great. Some interesting concepts like C.T.A.-102.

Cemented the Beatles turning the corner from pop to amazing music. No bad songs on the album. Standouts include Eleanor Rigby, Love You To, Yellow Submarine, She Said She Said, For No One, Got to Get You Into My Life, and Tomorrow Never Knows. I do recommend the mono version though. Stereo is interesting, but overall distracting.

A unique sound and not overly kitschy.

Surprisingly listenable. Can't go wrong with Rat Fink.

Great music, and an interesting bridge between old and new. The fact it isn't touched up or really produced at all makes it that much more amazing.

Opens with a nice Bob Dylan rap which elicits thoughts of Beck. I feel like Dylan was trying to figure out why he was popular and just started throwing random stuff at the wall. Then it all stuck...

Quite a departure from their other work.

Actually pretty great new wave.

Touches of Daft Punk and Troy soundtrack. Chill but interesting.

Like a lot of great singers, a few amazing songs and then a bunch of fluff.

Surprisingly diverse and fun. Some very catchy tunes.

Great R&B

Decent, not great.

River is Jingle Bells. Otherwise some great songwriting.

It’s the Smiths. Not my favorite.

Not sure "Just Playin" still plays given its reference to Raven Simone (in 94) and the stuff with Puffy.

The Clash

A unique modern take on R&B. Solid all the way through.

Straight rock.

I've really had enough of The Smiths, but this may be their best.

Can definitely hear the Meat Puppets in this. Not much unique here though.

Extremely creative story arcs and imagery. Great flow and beats.

A bit over wrought in places. Some ok tracks, but it also gets a bit repetitive.

Clever and enjoyable.

Good, not great.

Amazingly all over the place.

Surprisingly pop-ish. Great vocals.

At the top of 80's metal for sure. Great tunes.

A unique take on Blues/Rock.

Definitely more jazz than rock, and definitely folk. Great vocals and instrumentals.

A unique sound, amazing voice.

Very unique. There's a mix of acapella groups, beat boxing, Boyz II Men, jazz, and more traditional rock.

Alternating dark and bright, energetic and tired. Most enjoyable PJ Harvey album I've heard so far.

A mix of "pop" and experimental. Overall just good.

Pretty good storytelling and voice. Not my all time favorite country though.

The instrumentals are incredible. The vocals leave something to be desired.

Gets a little jangly and stereotypical 90's alternative in some spots, but has some great unique guitar riffs and musical ideas in there too.

Great depth and songwriting. Show what Harrison was really capable of.

Repetitive beats, nothing noteworthy.

Great intro to REM. More raw than later albums, it gives context to what would follow.

Great blues/rock album. An amazingly expressive voice.

Timeless songs. Some I knew well and didn't realize they were from their debut album. Crazy samples, hilarious lyrics.

Other than Song 2, nothing of note.

Meh

Interesting, but doesn't stand out as much as some. Hard to find, but there's a vinyl rip on youtube.

Enjoyable

Didn't stand out compared to Liquid Swords and others.

Amazing voice and unique style.

More Brit bias from this list. Nothing special.

Childish in a fun and experimental way. Enjoyable and unique songs. Still too much Brit bias on the list.

Definitely unique. Nothing stuck with me long term, but it's something different for sure.

Interesting and experimental.

It’s fucking punk.

Some interesting ideas. Didn’t ultimately stick with me.

Jokes aside, there isn’t a miss in this album and there are a couple of songs in the top 100 of all time.

Unique, and probably mind blowing when it came out. Still holds up.

A little unrelenting on the drum lines, but some technically good music with variety.

Starts very strong, gets strange around Aumgn though.

Weird mixture of Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen.

Very enjoyable and a great recording. A jazzy congo style.

Amazing voices and timeless songs. Great all around.

Can definitely hear how it influenced so many artists that came after.

Sounds a bit like NiN Part 2: Electric Bugaloo. I remember being scarred by The Beautiful People when it came out, and never really listened to anything else by MM. This listen through shows there is some music worth hearing though. Still a bit "edgy" in the lyrical department.

Some fun tunes, can definitely feel the Arctic Monkeys in it. Also sounds a bit like Jake Bugg sometimes for whatever reason. Drops off a bit toward the end.

Pretty good punk/grunge whatever. Not as good as Surfer Rosa.

Dark and unique. Not my favorite, but good.

Unique sound and messages. The love letter to Stevie Wonder is interesting.

Had no idea what to expect by the name, but great 80's rock revival.

I don't understand a word, and I don't know much about the man himself, but his music feels uplifting and has a great fusion of influences. Even some electric organ on El Aadyene!

Hard to believe he's Irish. Great voice and soul.

Decent music, the accent feels a bit forced.

The sweet spot of Pixies. Great songs like Gigantic, Bone Machine, and Where's My Mind.

A bit heavy on the distorted guitar in Darkness, Darkness. Straight into a Rubber Soul era song in Smug. Can hear influences from the Doors as well.

Solid folk, but doesn't stand out for me.

It's old Bruce, which is more authentic and believable than newer Bruce. I like the more stripped down sound vs. his previous album.

Pretty good for Dylan, still not my thing.

Undeniably catchy for the most part. Not my style of music, but well done.

Exceptionally unique. Themes woven throughout, and a meaningful journey.
