Good lord in heaven. This was… something. It reminded me of that scene in friends where Ross plays his “soundscapes” on the keyboard. Some of this was almost passable to listen to but a good portion was absolutely atrocious with heavy doses of sounds that could only be the band’s interpretation of what a UFO sounds like.
Some very fun tracks like Maggie’s Farm and Bob Dylan’s 115th Dream and the classic Mr. Tambourine Man
Very solid album through and through but not a ton I would personally listen to over and over on my own playlist. Potentially closer to a 3.5 but earned a 4 for me on the strength of the whole album.
A really solid and beautiful album overall but no standouts to me
Rock Lobster is always a jam, but most of the album is a bit difficult to listen to just because of how odd it is. Granted, I can definitely see how this was a very influential album.
One of the most depressing and miserable things I’ve ever listened to. Some of the songs sounded like animals were being strangled.
A really solid album overall that feels weirdly nostalgic. A few favorites were Sprawl II, City with No Children, and Half Light II. Would listen again.
Really cool hip hop album. Favorites were Freedom, What’s Golden, and High Fidelity.
Good album that gets better the more you listen to it. I don’t personally listen to a ton of reggae but I definitely vibed with the whole album as it grooved along. Favorite is probably High Tide Low Tide.
Very political and cool album but no individual song standouts for me
Awesome concept album that was super fun to listen to all the way through. Has classics like Another Brick in the Wall and Comfortably Numb. A real experience to hear every song back-to-back.
Who’s that Lady is a classic and the rest of the album was pleasant to listen to. Really a 3.5 in my book but I enjoyed it overall so a 4.
Once I got through the first couple songs, I immediately thought these guys sounded similar enough to the Clash to have influenced them. Turns out this band was quite influential, but nothing really stood out to me for a relisten moving forward.
Very eastern-feeling folksy album. Some songs I didn’t like and some I did.

A Ramones feeling album that I didn’t mind. Nothing stands out except maybe Ether.
Very fun pop album with some classics (We Got The Beat). Would listen again.
Sounded like impressive jazz but definitely background music for me
An absolute favorite that grooves the entire album. It’s funky and soulful and has inspired so much of the music that I love listening to today. Had multiple songs I liked for future listening.
Multiple classic rock songs with Runnin with the Devil and Ain’t Talking Bout Love, an impressive display of guitar on Eruption, and a nice change of pace with the potential favorite of the album in Little Dreamer. It was packed with energy and fun to listen to.
Somewhere between a 3 and a 4 for me. Somewhat enjoyable background music but definitely background music. Very easy listening jazz.
Another great one from Pink Floyd filled with beautiful guitar and lots of meaning. I’ve loved the song Wish You Were Here for a while now and enjoyed getting to hear the whole album.
Pretty standard generic indie pop. Don’t really see what’s so special about this that it needed to be on this list.
Classic 80’s rock music, which really isn’t my cup of tea. It’s fine to have on though. Favorite song was Pour Some Sugar On Me.
Soft and easy listening. There wasn’t a song I absolutely LOVED so I’m going with a 3.5, rounding down to 3.
Just because this has Girls Just Want to Have Fun and Time After Time, I have this a 4. Money Changes Everywthing would probably be the other good song, but the rest of the album was strange and I didn’t like it too much.
It was a very fun listen all the way through. Different songs felt like the Beatles and others felt like Bob Dylan and others felt like something completely different. Would listen to the album again.
This album had three really famous songs from Run DMC and was a decent listen all the way through. It’ll get a 4 based on the merit of those songs and the overall listenability of the album, but not a 5 since I didn’t LOVE anything.
An iconic rap album. Already had CREAM on my playlists.
Very fun listen all the way through. Really enjoyed No Dancing and Alison.
Southern rock/country-feeling album. Cool historical subject matter for a good part of the album. Three Great Alabama Icons was very interesting to listen to. The music itself just wasn’t that great, making this one not a huge desire to listen to over and over.
Relaxing and pleasant listen with the classic Mrs. Robinson on there.
Very unique and Cajun feeling album. Favorite song was probably Jump Sturdy.
A truly eclectic album with so many different instruments and styles. A number of classics with Bohemian Rhapsody (potentially the greatest song of all time) along with You’re My Best Friend and Love of My Life. A very solid 5.
Weird, dark, and dude doesn’t really have a great voice. It was interesting at points but overall don’t really want to go out of my way to listen to this again.
Very moody music. Sounds like it influenced a lot of chill/trip hop today. My favorite song (and the only one I think I’d heard before) is Glory Box.
An album with so many certifiable bangers. It’s so strong all the way through I just had to give it a 5
Bob Dylan showcases how good of a storyteller he is once again in this album, even if he gets a tad too preachy at times.
Couple of classic pop punk songs but the rest of the album sounds pretty similar to each other
Very interesting 70’s album. I’ll probably say 3 rather than 4 just because a lot of the music is a bit lengthy for me to listen to again and didn’t love love it. Fun to listen to once though.
This was a fantastic folksy, country and Americana-feeling album that is a good listen all the way through. Couldn’t get California Stars out of my head for multiple days.
It was meh. Didn’t really love anything. Even What’s Love Got to Do With It wasn’t that amazing.
A nice, enjoyable, and relaxing album all the way through. Would definitely throw on again, even though it doesn’t necessarily have any of the hits that I know.
Pretty solid rap album but I just won’t go out of my way to listen to most of this
The two songs with ukulele were the only almost half-decent songs. The rest was just atrocious.
Even though the album suffers overall from multiple songs that sound like each other (not a massive surprise with this band), this album has two loved hits in Come Out and Play and Self Esteem. That brought my total from 3 to 4.
I enjoyed several songs on this album and it was super pleasant to listen to! I really liked Crazy Love, Caravan, and It Stoned Me.
The two best songs were Band On the Run and Jet, but it takes almost the whole song to get to the actually enjoyable part of Band on the Run. The album was fine overall
Doo Wop and Ex-Factor are total bops. Listenable all the way through the album with the fun classroom recordings in the background throughout.
Wow I did not enjoy this. Really moany, discordant alt music. Going with a 2 just because I’ve heard worse.
Very unique and good indie album with songs I already enjoy. White Winter Hymnal and Ragged Wood are the faves. Strength of the album with some favorites pushes it from a 4.5 to a 5.
The Weight is far and away the best song on the album (conveniently it’s also this band’s most popular song) the rest of the album was kind of meh though so I’m giving it a 3 since I can’t give a 3.5.
It was alright I guess. The voice can be a bit much at times. Biggest disappointment is Come On Eileen isn’t on this album.
Bob Dylan continues to be a phenomenal storyteller throughout the album. He has some absolute hits in Desolation Row and Like a Rolling Stone.
Chill and classic indie album with several good songs (Intro, Islands, etc.). 4.5 that’s up to a 5 just because of how many songs I have on my playlist already!
This is probably one of the weaker Zeppelin albums but it still has Immigrant Song which is a classic.
Really vacuous British voice + cheesy 80’s synth throughout made for a mediocre album at best. Don’t You Love Me is the classic on here and clearly the best song.
Favorite song was probably Champagne Problems. The album starts really strong, gets a little forgettable in the middle , but ends with a bang with Bon Iver.
The two best songs are the ones I already knew going in: Heavy Metal Drummer and Jesus Etc. The rest of the album is alright and generally easy to listen to.
The album is filled with solid 50’s rock and crooner-style music. Very easy to listen to. My favorite was Blue Suede Shoes.
Very enjoyable soft rock. Favorites were When the Stars Go Blue and Firecracker
Really odd and dark storytelling that was quite colorful. I wouldn’t really listen to this for the music itself. It was really just more of a narrative with a score.
Well this was the epitome of an album I would never like. Horrible throat singing, mashed up noise, and over the top lyrics. Wasn’t a death metal guy before and can confirm I’m still not.
A very enjoyable 60’s rock album. Best song was Kicks.
The lyrics were pretty odd and the music itself was meh.
