4.5/5. Shit was LOVELY but dummy hipster indie
4/5. Sounds good, but whyβd he have to do Lolita bruh, I canβt endorse that

3.5/5 Very cool and innovative Byrne and Eno, but itβs no Talking Heads π€·ββοΈ
4.5/5. Very good and nice and lush and chill
Beautiful voices π
Pretty damn fire. Might be peak hair metal (not saying much) π€·

Liked it π, but I'm kinda a jazz dummy. Explorative, and chill
5/5. Unrelentingly 80s, holy shit. Masterpiece π
3.5/5. Very enjoyable while it lasted but not my expertise π€·ββοΈ

4/5. Non-Bowie glam-rock can only be so good π€·ββοΈ

4/5. Solid girl-boss hip-hop π
A few undeniable bangers, surprising dub elements in there, and not too long. Still a little grating and dated tho
4.5/5 This oneβs a grower for me. Bowie really gives you a lil taste of everything with this one, and Iβm all for it π
5/5. Musically innovative and wild and very ambitious for its time. Couldnβt ask for more π
4.5/5. Very trippy, and def reminded me of Bjork. Neat listen π

4/5. Good modern current trendy? nice lil album right here π
4/5. Classic country trope, but done well by one of the greats π
4/5. Eclectic, soulful, rocking. Nice π
3.5/5. Schmid tier as far as pop-punk goes. There are def good cuts, and it might be the Offspringsβ best, but there are too many βway-ohs
Kinda iconic. Gotta admit it's good
Lotsa mid on here. Very grocery store. Mostly shmeh with a standout banger
90s rap classic to my ears π€·
Excellent, fuzzy, exciting.
4/5. Great covers record, proto-punk classic. I donβt love every track, but there are many goodies
4/5. Good ass burger music π

Very good, cool early electronic album. Very Trainspotting coded π
Good solos, pretty good synth incorporation, but no where near peak zz top
Very nice chill jazz to study and relax to :)
2/5. Pretty-ass ngl. Lana do be toxic and have an annoying musical aesthetic and style doe π€·ββοΈ
4.5/5. Right up my mf alley. Bruh itβs got NiN AND Ink + Dagger members. Post hardcore rules
Great ππ
5/5. A blast of a record. Very dynamic, ahead of the curve, and an interesting snapshot of a unique turning point of the band
4.5/5. Very solid. Nicely draws the line between heady lyricism and catchy, jangly pop-rock. Also very predictive of 90s bands like Lemonheads and Gin Blossoms
4.5/5 Very dancy, and groovy, and well produced. I dig it
4.5/5 Very nice and smooth, and I can hear that modal difference π
Very lush full funk sound with the strings. I like it a lot π
3.5/5 Pretty experimental and out there and dreamy for the most part. A little meandering too doe.
4/5. Nice n psychedelic rock music. Earned itβs rep
Def bloated and kinda inconsistent, but there is definitely a ton of great stuff to get into here
5/5. Probably my favorite Dylan. Itβs got such a diverse set of songs, yet they also all feel so definitively and personally his.
4/5. Very neat sampling all over it. The boys have good chem too. Pretty fun
5/5. Best Album objectively π
Early Beatles is still good, but not the greatest out there π€·
4.5/5 Quite the interesting and unique singer-songwriter album of the time. I can see how it influenced Bjork and Siouxsie + extra TVU vibes π
Goated. Flawless. π€. π. π€©.
If you influence the Beatles and Simon + Garfunkel, you're kinda important
Lowkey incredible, jungleland is such a great closer π
I am not well versed enough in tango or Nueva tango or music theory to properly rate this, but it def has evocative beautiful moments, but was a little meandering π€·
4.5/5. Kendrick knows a good bassist π
Kinda like REM meets Smiths, nice and listenable. Streets of Your Town is a banger tho
4/5. A bit overblown, and stuck in the 90s, but definitely one of the most impressive and gratifying Brit-pop albums
4/5. Funky, fun, very Stevie Wondery. Damn enjoyable
4/5. The tracks that hit, hit dumb hard, but the ones that dont, kinda weak
Quite enjoyable, pretty lengthy, but very nice to listen to
Very good, not as good as the debut tho π€·
3.5/5. I mean, I was chillin with some singer-songwriter piano tunes, and dude drops the n-word hard-r. Sus
4.5/5. Sister was very good. Kinda feels like their most definitive moment before Daydream
Def some sus lyrics here, aged a little ugly. BUT, full of banger tracks, amazing solos, killer riffs, and fire vocals
4.5/5. Great stuff, not much more to say
Nice and playful, but too long. Wolfman Jack is fantastic tho
4.5/5. Tasty sax and guitar, + creative well done renditions. Can't ask for more really
It's alright, def better than kid rock
Quite good, common Sonic Youth W
Pretty good and catchy 70s folky, synthy throwback. A bit broadcasty too. Not bad π
Floyd goated π€ but 3rd best of top 4
4.5/5. I really can't say anything about this that hasn't been said, except that GKMC has more straight up bangers
4/5. Supergrass made quite a good Brit-pop album here, might be as good as the Bends
3.5/5. Very typical classic rock done well for the most part, with a lotta Bowie worship
Lot of repetitive rhymes tbh and poorly aged jokes. Pretty fun time capsule tho and some good songs
4.5/5. Melon's wrong, this might be top 3
Solid SY. Not my fav tho, too long :)
4.5/5. Very interesting ideas for the time on a lot of these songs, and good variety
4.5/5. Might be low-key some of the best stuff from 60s Cali psych at the time
Pretty decent Americana folky country. Not much more to add π€·
Undeniably essential, classic, and historical hardcore. Black Flag π€©
Overall pretty good, but ya know, it's Elvis π¬ π
Solid metal. AC/DC meets motorhead, with fire vocals and soloing. Campy fun π
It's alright, seems like Mould was keeping up with the Pixies on a lot of these tracks. Can't complain
Excellent concert, great stuff :)
Some good songs, but I kinda like all the other first wave punk more π€·
Very dang cool Brazilian psych-y album. Short and sweet too π
Pretty dang solid 90s sonic youth
Effective use of horns, def marching band vibe. Kinda jammy, psychedelic soft rock before Chicago was corny
So dang good, guitar is so tasty π€€
Definitely grating, mark e smith is not a beautiful singer. Good ideas here tho, and can be exciting. Wish the album on Spotify wasn't full of extras π€·
It's ok, not much variety in lyrics/music. Performances are good. Prefer some of the other 50s stuff
Some dated parts, but I'm a sucker for new wave. Quite good for the most part
Pretty dang solid pop rock country album. Proto-sheryl crow
Flows incredibly. Absolutely essential
Very good, not my favorite 90s hip hop, but it's very classic π
Very good pop album actually, definitely see what Destroyer was going for π
Lotta Roddy Stew doing Stones cosplay here, but a few true great moments π
CLASSIC. π€. LONG LIVE HEAVY METAL πΉπ
It's an AC/DC album. Not bad, some great moments, very samey π€·
Pretty damn solid grunge album. I admit I slept on it π
Pretty good, some peak motorhead for sure
Absolute classic π
Late career New Order still positively wonderful
It's pretty decent. Too long tho, and no song here is as good as shampoo shalom
Tasty tasty guitar and solos. Classic rock w π
Pretty decent, but might as well listen to the smiths π€·
Pretty cool symphonic industrial, with a lil cabaret. Might not return super soon, but def neat π
There's like 3 good songs on here :/ non Beatles McCartney is not for me no sirree π
It's alright. Prefer st. Vincent for the arty dance-rock stuff
Idk it's aight, kinda like lou reed meets b dyl ig. Prob need to revisit.
Good catchy inviting stuff. A bit whimsical too
Great pop album, not a huge fan of ballads tho
Excellent stuff, Stevie is goated π
Some iffy shmeh songs, but I can't not like the smiths π
Not my cup of tea, prefer Blur for brit-pop. It's aight π
Very sparse and rudimentary, but the energy and personality is there
Excellent final sendoff album. Gonna need to revisit π
70s camp fest in the best way possible. I'm a fan π His name was Robert Paulson rip π
π
Very well executed. Some fantastic songs. Might be my fav Wilco π€·
Not a huge fan of his voice, but definitely some great songs on here π
Fantastic singles, don't totally care for the whole album
good prog, but not my favorite
π
π
Nick Cave W π
Good goth. New order better doe
I do like a lil prog here and there, and Jethro tulll does not get their flowers π
Very 90s electronic music. Cool and exciting for the most part tho
Super atmospheric and vibey. Fred Neil has a fantastic voice. Great folk record
Top notch folk rock. Love it :)
π little German boy is experimenting
Pretty fun lil queer pop album, some bangers π
Liked it quite a bit π the drums and bass sound incredible. Peak Vegas Presley?
Pretty good, I like dear science more tho
Some good songs, but def full of burger and car commercial music
Pretty damn catchy, and good songs. Can't complain
Great stuff, not their best. Feels like we're finally moving away from the 80s hip hop sound
Fire. π₯ RIP Cornell
Great production, but too long, and not as catchy as later gorillaz π€·
Excellent funk, gotta dig into the rest of the Parliament discog π
Wild concept, fantastic production. Some dated stuff, but very fun and cool.
Very good goth. More eclectic than UP. The seeds of New Order are here. nearly as good as UP but second half's quality dips
Not a fan :( sounds like an expensive grocery store. Music for babies π€·
I like it, nice album π
π
Extreme, heavy, influential, based ππ€
Home Depot burger indie. Not my fav genre, but good for that genre π
Fire classic rap π
It's no blackstar, but very respectable late career project π
Quite good 80s country rock actually π
Fire classic rock dad moment, ramble on indeed π
Kinda quirky and whimsical hardish psych rock. Def pretty cool and innovative, but also a lil goofy
It's good, not much to add.
More innovative than other numetal, and def influential, but still kinda cringe
Pretty dang cool and exciting house album, def need to revisit
Very wild and eccentric post-punky, ridiculously influential
Quite good, love Killer Queen :)
Pretty dang neat and cool and avant garde for the time π
Prob their most consistent and maybe my fav, but I'm not a huge Stones guy
Tremendous opener and closer, and some bangers in between π
Very good pop record, love some GM
Fire disco, def need to revisit. Very fun and joyous. Pride month π :)
Good lil kinks album
Really liked the jamminess of this one. The band sounded really good π
Mid meh early 90s jangle rock, catchy to some extent, but mostly quite basic
Excellent stuff, really unique for its time
First Willie, and it's great :). Beautiful record, absolutely will revisit. Title track is fantastic π
Quite entertaining and catchy hair metal album :)π
Very good songs on here, stephen stills is indeed quite a good guitar player
Very good. Whimsical, and instrumentally intricate. Prefer Close to the Edge tho
Love experimental synthy proto new wane Bowie π
Quite mid. Weak songs/songwriting. Gotta start somewhere π€·
Lots of great guitar work and very fun.
I mean, yeah its a nice record, with pretty harmonies sometimes, but i don't get the hype behind this album. It's aight
Very fire, hella nostalgic. Love it π
More consistent than Joshua Tree, but not as many highs
Very good singles, lotta mid otherwise. The vocal harmonies carry
Liked it a lot. Cool ominous beats. Some sus lines here and there, but it was the 90s ig π€·
Really neat record. Would love to check out some more vintage African albums π
Pretty cool. Screamadelica is better, but this should not be slept on π
Shows that David Byrne is not the whole force behind the Talking Heads sound. Very cool and Genius of Love is iconic
Most classic of classic rock. Still a LITTLE filler in there tho
Goated. All-timer. We love you Trent π€
Lot of cool sounds and moments and I call tell it's influential, but a little annoying in some aspects
British pavement. I liked it π
Decent, like his debut and Memphis Elvis more tho
Hard rocking and breaking ground on the debut, love to see it :)
Honestly quite a cool and musical dense album. Lot of interesting stuff going on
Knocked it out the park on the first one, shame they couldn't keep it going π€·
Cool, chill, nice album but long and a little meandering. Prob should revisit
I mean, def one of Chili's best, but I'm not chilis fan :/
Fire, inventive, bold. Amazing debut
Very good folk rock album. Very Dylany songwriting, but that's not really a bad thing. McLean has a great voice.
The Byrds basically set the template for the Eagles here. Not sure if we should thank them for that tho. Very good album
Idk there's a couple decent tracks here. Love the Philly rep, but it's pretty corny ngl
Very good, prob not best Doors, but obv very influential
Wow. Excellent. Can def tell Kurt Cobain listened this. Prob one of best Beatles departure albums. Fantastic π
Very very good album, almost on par with Folsom Prison. Great stuff π
Very cool array of sounds tbh. Very 90s, but not in a bad way π
Pretty solid commercial metal album. Can see how it influenced much shittier bands tho
Decent for a Jam solo record. Admittedly some cool and good musical moments.
Fantastic production. Def need to check out more Soulquarian work. Great stuff 4/5 π
Pretty good singer songwriterish album. Liked it a lot tbh π
Southern strokesy indie rock. Its good but not my fav rock of the era
Epic, innovative, creative, psychedelic. I am now experienced :)
Pretty damn innovative, undeniably groundbreaking, but nevertheless, a little sonically sparse
I mean, Ute can sing and these songs sound good as musical numbers, but this project seems lil unnecessary. Couple standouts, but I'd kind rather listen to a regular musical soundtrack π€·
Very good, fantastic production, some lyrics haven't aged great, but very enjoyable and mostly great songs
Meh. Foster the People Γ Passion Pit Γ Animal Collective. Kinda derivative of better 2010s indie groups. Neat electronics tho
I think I like this more than Blue and Hejira. Really interesting arrangements and engaging songs, and very personal writing. Pretty fantastic
Mega XPN-core album. Sounds like if Cold War Kids were psych-rocky, folky, grateful-deady. Great instrumentation, but kinda bland tbh
Very dark, bleak, stark, but very captivating. Definitely want to revisit this one, but it's a very interesting provocative rock opera indeed
This was great. Love this and Close to the Edge. Great great great prog rock. Some of the best ever
Not really fan of these dudes voices for the most part. Some very good songs tho. Hope I will like the follow up a bit more π
Very evocative and conceptualized. Does not feel meandering or indulgent at all. Very intentional and interesting orchestration. I quite enjoy Mingus π
Turns out watering down Radiohead makes for some grocery store classics π€·
Wonderful. Incredibly easy to get into despite the length, very musically detailed. Always something interesting going on. Pretty spectacular π
Sweet ear candy. Sometimes the California city references were too corny. Still good tho
Big fan of freaky deeky sad beach boys. The feet song sucks tho π
Quite good, but very disjointed. The hardcore tracks suck, but the jammier rockier songs fuck π. Also too long doe π€·. Sabotage is a classic tho. π€ 4/5
Not as good as fun house. Still very good, but lowkey kinda campy in a bad way in some spots. Less of gritty, sweaty vibe, but still very fun and rockin
I quite dig some introspective, moodier, sparse country rock Neil Young. Quite the good album
Fantastic, inventive, progressive. Very very cool conceptual album
It's aight. I prefer other shoegaze/britpop/British music. They owe Achtung Baby a lot of credit with this one tbh
Quite the strange, freaky trip. Very forward thinking. I see why the hipsters like it π
Classic as hell. More to appreciate with each listen π
Very very solid psychedelic baroque pop. Up there with Sgt Peppers for sure. Some corny sing-songy stuff, and they are hugely indebted to the Beach Boys, but besides that splendid indeed π
Very dispensary-core. Very 2012 Foster the People, but indietronic type beat. Not my favorite, but pretty inoffensive. Every song is too long
Pretty fun and energetic live album. Appreciate cheap trick a lil bit more π.
Incredibly solid. One of the best singer songwriters of his time. Melodies are a bit samey, but still a fantastic record
Pretty great debut. A lil one note, but still some killer songs on here
Obviously very good and impressive and influential for the time, but just a bit too sparse and repetitive to fully get into sometimes. Many great tracks tho
A couple smeh songs, but mostly very very good folk, country rock. Love the guitar, and Celtic influence π
Quite good. Prob the best glam rock (def like it more than t rex,) but Blackstar is prob my favorite Bowie
A lot of unique and interesting ideas here. Def a little too indulgent sometimes, but really interesting to hear them experiment.
Honestly some very beautiful tunes and harmonies and playing here. Very much enjoyed this one
A lot of very interesting ideas and great sounds, but a bit of a lack of standout Songs overall. Still very enjoyable, but I think I prefer the debut as a more cohesive piece
Very classic, great songs, def one note but the spirit and energy carry π
Mark E Smith can get considerably grating during an entire album, however, the beats/instrumentation on this one fits his style very well.
Instrumentally sounds really quite good, but the lyrics and songwriting I didn't love as much π€·
I mean, it's catchy, but not impressive or versatile in anyway. It's very bland one-note ear candy. Not exactly a shocker that AI can easily churn out Oasis songs π€·
Beautiful, great arrangements, very iconic album. Only a little bit of mid in there
Great, instrumentally diverse, fantastic performances and songs.
Instrumentally decent, good playing on this. The singing sucks ass. Very passionless. All in all, not an impressive album
Not as heavy/stark as Siouxsie, not as light as the Cure. A solid gothy album as a whole piece, but not many standout tracks. I like their later work more tbh
Great live show, hella energy, audience reactions are very entertaining and the transitions are fantastic. Would love to revisit
Musically, genuinely not the worst thing, but the album is too long. Lyrically aged horrifically in some places and atrociously in othersπ€’.
Great debut. An excellent blueprint for the Seattle grunge scene. Well conceived for the most part. May be my favorite Mudhoney album
Masterfully crafted, hella influential, and ahead of its time. Engineering sounds fantastic. Creative use of dynamics. Engaging storytelling. Very classic π€
Really cool album. Sounds like it basically set the blueprint for Swervedriver to continue this sound. Very cool effects throughout it. I should definitely revisit
Sounds a lot like dispensary-core indie music. For me, the standout is the final track. It's good, not my favorite, not the most impressive thing
Honestly very grating and mid. I'm not necessarily a Jack White hater, but this was kinda a slog for me. Too many annoying basic songs. Not the White Stripes best π€·
Sounds like Aerosmith in the late 80's. Energy and performances are def there, but most songs here are too long, and horned up. It's good for a comeback album π€·
I could not be happier that the list includes this one. Genuinely a top 5 album of all time. These guys are masters of tension + relief, and expert song craftsmen. This thing as held up spectacularly. Still sounds heavy to this day. Can not praise this enough π
Bowie's fingerprints are all over this. Sounds like Bowie but less restrained. I like it, but prefer the Stooges work for sure. Title track is fantastic tho
Yeah idk I guess it's ok, almost as good as Coldplay and Muse π€
Every Breath You Take kinda sticks out like a sore thumb as the least shrouded in the world beat/80s grocery store music sound. And also prob the best song on the album. Sting is annoying as well, not my favorite :/
This one is a close personal favorite of mine, however, Disarm is kinda a stinker (SP aren't as good when you have can't avoid Billy's shitty lyrics) π€·
Very intriguing, I can hear where Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds have taken a lot of inspiration from this. Loved Diamonds in the Mine, quite unhinged. Will def try to revisit π
Honestly, one of their most consistent albums so far. I think Joshua Tree has higher highs, but this one is better throughout. Also it's got New Year's Day and Sunday Bloody Sunday π
Some interesting ideas on display. Quite liked Fodderstompf. Not a huge Johnny Rotten fan, and he is definitely pretty obnoxious on a couple tracks here. Not my favorite post punk, but still worth listening to
Honestly a very fun listen. It's like a more palatable version of RHCP (fuck Anthony Kiedis.) Quite good indeed.
Putting the dubious nature of this album's creation aside, the best tracks on this are some of the better 80s worldbeat (not even close to Talking Heads tho.) Ultimately, I like the stuff that this album influenced more than this album itself (Vampire Weekend.)
I mean, it has a few more quirks than late 2010s pop music, and it's clearly got more personal lyrics than a lot of it, but it doesn't really stand out to me as being all that much more innovative or unique. Very Tumblr-core
Classic 90s alt/dance album. I pretty much enjoyed every song on this one. Very vibey and chill. Would go hard live π
Obviously it's great and all that, but it is not as good as the debut or Physical Graffiti. I absolutely love When the Levee Breaks tho, and they do pull off a great mix of folk and rock here.
Meh. I wouldn't disagree that this is kinda an impressive debut, and it's cool that the band sort of pulled off a reverse "Kid A" (before Kid A even came out,) but like, the sound of this thing is very indebted to Radiohead, but with overall less impressive songs and is less engaging throughout than almost all RH albums. The production is still good tho. Maybe I should revisit idk π€·
This album was slightly less sleepy than I thought it would be, which I appreciated. Mark Knopfler is a great guitarist of course, but this kinda felt like "Bob Dylan sings Grateful Dead," and not in a good way. Mark Knopfler is no Bob Dylan. Sultans of Swing is pretty undeniable tho
Solid early 90s rocker. There's a couple great songs (Hard to Handle is too corny for me tho :/). I will probably always have a soft spot for She Talks to Angels. It's a bit standard for 70's rock revival, but they sell it pretty well and their vocalist is quite good
Quite a good, rockin album. Cult of Personality is a classic song. Doug Wimbish is on fire here, great bass lines. Very Princey in some spots. π
This album is just too long and samey for me to get into all that much. I think HΓΌsker DΓΌ's are at their best when they're sounding a bit gruffer and lean more hardcore. Zen Arcade is peak
Definitely pretty challenging and chaotic. I think it's pretty undeniably impressive, but I prefer my noise rock to be a bit more structured i.e. Jesus Lizard, Drive Like Jehu, etc.
Pretty decent 80s pop album, some bangers. Dude's got a great voice for sure π. Definitely some dated 80s production tho
California Dreaming and Monday Monday are definitely the standouts here. The rest of the songs I could kinda take or leave. Definitely not the most impressive or innovative 60s record
Cooler than some people give it credit for. I appreciate the experimentation and the mix of styles going on here. Would like to revisit π
Very very good considering this is many albums deep in their career. The material here is very distinctive and inspired, it holds up very well for it. The band's charming quirkiness is still very present here. I prefer their earlier work overall but this did not disappoint π
This was a very pleasant, interesting listen. Will definitely need to revisit. Despite its length, it really didn't overstay it's welcome. Very detailed and intriguing π
Wow, I wish I had heard of this band sooner. The mix of electronic music and metal on this album is some of the most inspired and well conceived I've heard from its era. The singing is incredibly powerful and engaging too. I will definitely be returning to this one π
Surprisingly great 90's rock record. Never heard of this band before this list, but this album was full of catchy songs, with great riffs and hooks. Could quite possibly become a regular listen π
Underated overall in the Zeppelin catalog in my opinion. Not the most consistent, but the highs are very high here. Can't go wrong π
Always glad to hear some Fela Kuti. Very lively indeed. Very groovy, great for a drive. Quite an intriguing musical collaboration as well. Good stuff π
Absolutely classic. Not much more I can say about it that hasn't been said already. A great voice singing great songs on a great album. Can't ask for much more π
Surprisingly pretty dang good considering I've only heard his singles and they aren't my favorite. Definitely appreciated how raw and kinda guttural the singing could be. The music is quite enjoyable but the lyrics are kinda basic. Overall a very good debut.
Very interesting production. Definitely could hear and appreciated how it influenced post-rock. Could be kinda boring at times, but there's a lot here to enjoy.
This kinda just sounded like uninteresting 80s grocery store music. I can appreciate that it was probably sorta innovative for the early 80s, but it was unfortunately pretty underwhelming
