post syd pink floyd is trash, i’ve never understood what emotion they were trying to get across, maybe none?

Love the singles

not good

maybe 5 stars but i’m loathe to give out 5 stars

i dig it

i think i get it. but it didn't really move me

probably better than I can tell, but it's not made for me

some great tunes but something about it just rubs me the wrong way

awful, really bad, plus...a fucking flute!

i like that they're taking chances, i just can't handle too much of that histrionic vocal style

not the worst but i have no idea why this is considered a classic

It's as if the Stones did a third disc of Exile On Main Street, like the Clash did with Sandinista. The one with all the songs you don't want to listen to on it.

Almost a 5, but there’s a bit of filler on Side 2. Still an astonishing debut

Hypnotic

good

Solid and weird

probably fine but it didn't move me

a couple of good tunes but not a good album

so many swears

a lot better than i expected

dug it more than i expected but that smooth jazzy sound is really not for me

a couple of good singles and a lot of filler, ambitious but I don't really respond to that ironic tone

chef's kiss

i can see why this is a classic and i almost hate to admit it but i just don't dig country that much

i did not like this

so many swears but i dug it plus it's nice to see he's a family man

not for me

pretty good, i dig it

didn't grab me but i wasn't really paying attention, also i'm generally opposed to rock flute

could be contemporary new age music, this is not a good thing

i think this record is probably better than i think it is but it just doesn't do it for me, too jokey and not enough heart

so many swears but hard to resist

lushly heartbreaking

okay i guess

i don't want to like it but it's not that bad

hard to argue with this

all killer

kind of a classic but the tunes just aren't that great

some good tracks but i don't think i'll be digging this out too often

probably 4.25 but fuck it, chrissie deserves the extra star for being so cool

pretty fuckin' catchy but it's really for kids

the stooges > iggy solo

hard to argue with this

some catchy riffs but it's basically one vulgar joke over an over

decent but lacking memorable tunes

so gross and vulgar, aping the worst of their influences

ugh that early 00s sound

i want to love it because of the singularity and ambition but they fuck it up with a lack of great tunes and too much irony

nice try

some 5 star tracks but some filler as well

it seemed okay

strong aversion

i wanted to like this but it just didn't do it for me, it might be the skits, the failure might be mine

some 5 star tracks but a few 3 star tracks

i dig it!

consistently astonishing

never thought much of hetfield's vocals or lyrics, but some pretty good riffs

it's nice but will i ever be crazy for it? i don't think so

cool psych but i can't hack that second side with the narration

I want to give it a sentimental 4 but really there's so much filler

hippies smell like boogers but i have to admit i enjoyed this far more than i expected to

Super likable but I’m not 17

i'm very glad to learn about this

i know this is great but most of it just doesn't move me, the lack is mine

some first-rate tracks but much is forgettable and the central idea is silly

catchy singles but much cringe

will get better with age

a couple of okay tracks but i don't dig this kind of quirky prog

sounds legit but it's not really for me

might deserve 5 stars just for the title track but there's a bit of filler here

dug some of it but it sounds like the source material is queen and i'm just not into queen or queen-like stuff

dig their dedication but it just ain’t my sound

starbucks music

curtis is a king

violent genius but oh, so sad

seemed okay but i didn’t listen very closely

who are we to judge john coltrane

it's good but Lost Souls is much stronger

seems okay, i dig the strings and the dreaminess, the vocals get old for me

a few great tracks - the late great johnny ace is a standout - but lots of filler and it's not helped by the early-80s production

i can't ever play it around my kids but it's cool

i would like to dislike CSN because they’re dirty hippies but i just can’t

it should be good but i just can’t countenance radiohead, except for the bends, the bends was cool

catchy but samey and a little smug

didn’t age well, there’s no life inside it

it’s cool but it doesn’t touch my heart

it’s curtis mayfield, back the fuck up

i dig it

i never liked ac/dc and i still don’t

i thought i wasn’t going to like this anymore but even though it’s completely satanic she’s a real talent

even when it doesn’t quite work, and sometimes it doesn’t quite work, the ambition and depth of spirit are astonishing

not bad for what it is but i’ll play sticky fingers 100 times before i’ll put this on

so slick and tight

devoid of hooks or melody

i would love to give this 4 but i just can’t give it more than 3 because i don’t like it that much

post syd pink floyd is trash, i’ve never understood what emotion they were trying to get across, maybe none?

Ghost Rider is quite possible the greatest rock and roll song of all time, the rest of the album is close behind

it’s cool and has some poetry but it’s too mannered to really move me

irremediably tainted

nah

there’s something repellent about tweedy but the dude writes a good tune

the title track is a stunner but despite his reputation for sincerity the boss seems forced and fakey on this one

better than i expected, he has a deep talent for melody and texture, his downfall is that he is over clever

i prefer mezzanine

so concentrated but also a total bummer

a perfect alloy of lyrical inventiveness and pop skills

marred only by some filler and 80s production

pleasantly inconsequential

haunting but not in a good way

so fragile

so dry but so suggestive

what can you say it’s hotel fucking california

not heavy, not catchy, not interesting

cars is great but the album gets monotonous quick

a bit vegas and those chicago blues leads just aren’t my thing but it’s a good punchy band

haunting and lyrical

flawless even in its flaws

some lovely melodies but some lamentable excursions as well

it sounds like something that’s good but just not for me

it’s like radiohead but not the irritating bleep blurp radiohead but also not the good radiohead it’s like the maudlin radiohead that turned into coldplay

bowie was one of the few to make consistently interesting rock music that pushed the edges musically and lyrically without being a massive bore

prog is shit

a few killer tracks but a lot of muzakey funk-jazz filler - then again it’s a film score

i dug it

it’s so lovely, there are so many hooks and it’s played so well, such great production - sad that this generation and people like these were responsible for the degradation and collapse of our civilization

a masterpiece - they were so terrified by what they achieved they’ve spent the rest of their careers running away from it

even if it doesn’t always work i respect the ambition

I thought PE didn't do anything good after Nation of Millions...man was I wrong

that one jingle-jangle thing they do is so fucking good it almost makes up for the ho-hum stuff but not quite

i really hate this kind of thing

this feels fake and superficial which is sad because i think they’re trying to be deep and sincere

i didn’t listen very hard but this seemed shallow and smug

classic muscular punk rock and roll

would be 5 but the production just doesn’t do justice to the music i know it’s live but still

slickly nihilistic

i’m not really in a position to judge this

it's cool but it's not that cool and it's pretty stupid, too, and not always in a good way

it's so stupid but you can't fuck with it

didn't sit right with me

probably groundbreaking or something. it it didn’t really move me

transmissions from a lost world

too smooth, i need more passion

those singles are fucking outstanding

i dug it but it's a bit of a pastiche just with more swears

i don't know it's pretty iconic but in all honesty most of the tunes don't really grab me, it's probably the best example of what it is

it's self-reflexive, derivative, and juvenile, but it's honest and it's got some hooks

the singles are bittersweet perfection, almost too much, but it’s not all the same quality

was this anything new, even at the time? nope is it a fairly accomplished and catchy version of something i already like? yep

i dug it, so much going on here it’s almost schizo

all killer and completely their own thing

layla’s pretty great but the rest of it makes me think of “blues” night at the pub

it’s actually pretty dense and textured but it’s hook-weak

i love punk and i love california but i don’t love this

i mean you're not going to put it on very often but sometimes it will be the only choice

more “blues” night at the pub

not the kind of bowie i really dig but bowie’s gold even when he’s not

i generally don’t dig this kind of shaggy blues pastiche

probably the best of whatever it is

brand new

i want to like it more than i actually do

hated it when it came out now i love it that’s what happens

she’s got a nice voice but that old time folky stuff just doesn’t move me that much

nice but i’m probably not going to slap it on too often

i wouldn’t presume to opine about this

i like the idea more than the experience but it’s still pretty great

i wish i’d heard this when it was released because it would’ve really rung my bell

some good tracks but this is not anyone's favourite album

this sounds like other things that i already like but i like those other things more than this

this kind of "metal" sucks there's nothing heavy about it and the lyrics are stupid and not in a good way

points for charm and authenticity but how often is this going to be the exact right thing to play?

i actually dig the US version better but what are you gonna do, not give this 5 stars?

egregiously overrated

super cool & ahead of its time

very good

i used to love the rolling stones so much now i don’t know a lot of this seems pretty weak

muddy’s never really done it for me but you can’t really fault him i don’t think

it’s okay but radiohead are best when they make tight crafted pop songs not depressive electro jams

i’m not ever going to listen to this i don’t care if it’s the greatest album ever made

not the best zeppelin but second tier zeppelin is far beyond the capacity of most mortals

solid, gritty, and inventive

the first two tracks are great but nothing thereafter is quite so engaging

close but not perfect

i mean i still have a fondness for unbridled creativity but in retrospect so much of the "avant-garde" is just one ugly thing after another

sacred music
