Greetings to the new brunette- perfectly pleasant, feel like it could stand out little bit more 👍 Train train- guitar is fantastic on this The marriage-meh, I don’t think this a hot take Ideology- bob dylan wrote the melody, no wonder it’s meandering. Yet another anti politician song, lyrics fine Levi Stubbs tears- great song, nice storytelling and great instrumental 👍 Honey, I'm a big boy now- good for her, he seemed like a man child. Like music hall feel There Is Power in a Union-apt for our times lol Help save the youth of America-amazing song, criticising patronising fundraiser songs, and very catchy👍 Wishing the days away- cute pleasant song The passion - poignant, atmospheric song👍 The warmest room- upbeat fun song 👍 The home front -nothing has changed in 35 yrs I guess :) land of hope and glory Only listened to songs for original albums. Felt like the political songs are still apt now, which is kinda sad but something didn’t really click with me about them. Took a while for me to get into the music. Some really good songs in here, but mostly just alright 3/5

To be Young - boring Bob Dylan knockoff The winding wheel - this is decent Amy- another dull song Oh my sweet Carolina- this is a sweet song, easy to listen to👍 Bartering lines- this is quite atmospheric in a background way Call me on your way back home- lyric very cliché Gave up on track ratings, nothing else stuck out to me God this album is The epitome of boring. Just a lot of blah 1/5

Arise - its one of these albums.. Dead embryonic cells - points just for the little Tbh👍 Desperate cry - some nice differentiation here between two sections Murder- cheery titles.. Cute👍 All other songs much the same Altered state👍 I guess this is good for what it is but it just doesn't appeal to me 3/5

Hard times- quite a simple song with simple rhymes Rock box- Some nice fusion kinda sounds with electric guitar 👍 Jam master Jay- love the hype for the producer👍 Hollis Crew-another pretty simple straightforward brag track Sucker MCs- fun song with simple but effective backing beat👍 Its like that- song seems to plod a bit for me, just not strong enough combination of lyrics/beat for me Wake up- this is the beginning of a good idea, could be elevated more👍 Again, I am taking this album out of context as the fundamental and influential trailblazer that it is, but we can really see this is laying the foundations and what has been built up out of it is much better overall. 2/5

Beautiful day - big single , suitably atmospheric👍 Stuck in a moment you can't get out of- sounds like beautiful by James blunt in the chorus. Don't think it’s quite upbeat enough for the message Elevation- this is whatever, very dad music Walk on - very similar themes to previous songs Kite- this is sweet but safe👍 In a little while- Nonce song with wolf howls for some reason Wild Honey to Grace- All pretty generic and some terrible songs in this run. New York has a really jarring guitar riff that comes in sometimes that feels very uninspired The ground beneath her feet- Wait, the lyrics are by Salman Rushdie?! This was the first U2 album I’ve listened to.. hopefully its not representative of their whole oeuvre 1/5

You make me feel so young -rather forgettable It happened in Monterey - great instrumental, charming song👍 You’re getting to be a habit with me- Not much to this song, don’t like the conceit You brought a new kind of love to me - they didn't believe in short titles! Great instrumental but don’t like lyrics Too marvellous for words-seems quite similar to previous songs Old devil Moon - great combo of Frank and band👍 Pennies from heaven - have heard this song but not this version. Alright Love is here to stay- cute lyrics, seems a bit cliché but it is old lol I’ve got you under my skin- bit meandering at times but damn that instrumental😍 I thought about you - bit of heartbreak? Alright We'll be together again - slow, bit boring tbh Makin’ whoopee- this is jarring lol Swingin' down the lane- potentially catchy?👍 Anything goes- love this song, this version isn’t my fave How about you?- Idk who James Durante is Early album on the list, just fine to me, definitely effective background music for a specific vibe 3/5

Intro-good set up If I die 2nite- this music is definitely not my vibe. But I like background, found outro a bit strange Me against the world- slick production, powerful lyrics, all around great song👍 So many tears- another powerful personal song, with great sample. Don’t think the hook is as good as me against the world. Temptations-swerve into song about potentially settling down. Just alright for me Young n*****- WOW 👍 Heavy in the game- like chorus Lord knows-such an alien song to me. Another powerful song with great hook.👍 Dear mama-so heartfelt👍 It ain’t easy- bit of a self pity song lol but still very enjoyable to listen to. Can U get away- catchy chorus, slow in parts Old school-nostalgia foreign to me Fuck the world- just okay Death around the corner- I like this song except for the hook Outlaw- closing song, just okay for me This album is very much the opposite of what I listen to. Pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable it was, but I know nothing about this type of music. 4

Dead leaves and the dirty ground - think I might find the vocals grating Hotel yorba- jaunty, alright I'm finding it harder to be a gentleman - like instrumental but god he sounds like an ass here Fell in love with a girl - short and catchy👍 Expecting- another short, catchy Song 👍 Little Room - weird interlude The union forever- haven't watched citizen Kane but instrumental is cool👍 The same boy you've always known - meh We’re going to be friends- advert core Offend in every way-nice riff, meh otherwise I think I smell a rat - as above Aluminum-feel like it would be better without the ahs tbh I can't wait -another perfectly alright song. Now Mary- cute song with changes of pace👍 I can learn- could get into this song👍 This protector- weird song to end on,not my fave This album was just ok to me, didn’t inspire. Compared to what I think the general field will be this is a 2/5 for me

I actually own this album😮 Talkin’ about a revolution-sets the tone for the album ,very catchy👍 Fast Car - obviously a classic, one of the best songs of all time👍 Across the lines - socially important, great backing instrument Behind the wall- Haunting, but a bit on the nose Baby can I hold you-bittersweet love song 👍 Mountains o’ things- I like verses but not a fan of bridge, outro lasts a bit too long She’s got her ticket- upbeat song about escaping from the cycle👍 Why?- think the chorus brings this song down a bit, everything else is great for me For my lover-another good song If not now..-an enchanting wistful song 👍 For you- sweet little album closer 👍 First album I’ve listen to before. Background is always superb, and lyrics are mostly amazing. Fast car is really a classic song but many others on the album are also amazing. 4/5

I am a smiths apologist, this is already one of my favourite albums🙃 The queen is dead-great start, great lyrics 👍 Frankly, mr shankly- funny,clever lyrics, jaunty instrumental 👍 I know it’s over- we take our first foray into depresso-core but damn if the intensity isn’t glorious 👍 Never had no one ever- the depths of self pity, we’ve all been there. Still like this song but one of the weaker ones on this album Cemetry gates- lol it’s misspelled. I LOVE this song, one of my favourite songs of all time. The lyrics are amazing, great union between Marr and Morrissey 👍 Bigmouth strikes again- another classic. Guitar is next level 👍 The boy with the thorn in his side- good song, just not one of my favourites from this album. Doesn’t really stand out to me on this album Vicar in a tutu-playful, tongue in cheek song There is a light that never goes out- obviously a classic👍 Some girls are bigger than others- boobs. It seems an odd choice to end with this more low-key track rather than the previous,but mirrors the slightly jokey and irreverent opening. Love the subtle outro ending the album. Overall I think this album is the perfect union of Marr and Morissey, truly an amazing album 5/5

Hello hooray-doesn’t appeal to me personally, theatre core? Raped and freezin’- quite disturbing lyrics but I like the instrumental Elected- pretty groovy. Everyone at everytime feels the same way about politicians I guess👍 Billion dollar baby- odd in a good way, especially the chorus. Guitar outro pretty cool as well 👍 Unfinished sweet- another weird song, not unpleasant but not personally my thing. No more mr nice guy- nice catchy tune 👍 Generation landslide- different vibe with harmonica 😮 lyrics a bit try hard for me Sick things- quite dull, not a fan Mary Ann- interesting segue, music hall vibe, incredibly derivative, honey pie did it better tbh I love the dead- dramatic shift into song about necrophilia. This is too edgelord for me lol. I do like the cut to saying nothing though, but the whole song doesn’t do too much for me. This album didn’t really resonate. Maybe I don’t like rock? Idk v edgy for no good reason 2/5

Greetings to the new brunette- perfectly pleasant, feel like it could stand out little bit more 👍 Train train- guitar is fantastic on this The marriage-meh, I don’t think this a hot take Ideology- bob dylan wrote the melody, no wonder it’s meandering. Yet another anti politician song, lyrics fine Levi Stubbs tears- great song, nice storytelling and great instrumental 👍 Honey, I'm a big boy now- good for her, he seemed like a man child. Like music hall feel There Is Power in a Union-apt for our times lol Help save the youth of America-amazing song, criticising patronising fundraiser songs, and very catchy👍 Wishing the days away- cute pleasant song The passion - poignant, atmospheric song👍 The warmest room- upbeat fun song 👍 The home front -nothing has changed in 35 yrs I guess :) land of hope and glory Only listened to songs for original albums. Felt like the political songs are still apt now, which is kinda sad but something didn’t really click with me about them. Took a while for me to get into the music. Some really good songs in here, but mostly just alright 3/5

Trying to keep an open mind on this one.. haven’t heard of this album even though it’s recent. Happy at least new albums are included. The spinning song- this song was just bizarre to me. Lyrics meh but outro was okay. Bright horses- simple but effective instrumental, just Sean really resonate as I don’t really have an experience with grief that way Waiting for you- actually sounds like a song, pretty good👍 Night raid- interesting instrumental but v strange metaphor Sun forest- actually just lofi ambient music to start the song lol. Meh other than that Galleon ship- interesting enough instrumental to support lyrics 👍 Ghosteen speaks-snorefest tbh Leviathan- this one is hard to listen to Ghosteen- 12 mins 🙃bridge is fantastic, but there is a whole lot of slog Fireflies- nick cave doesnt know what a photon is. Think lyrics are pretty good, but you’re just speaking them my dude Hollywood- 14 mins. V long, kisa story baffling This album is the first one where I had to do something else also for the sake of my sanity. Just not for me, I can’t relate to the grief. I don’t think for me the lyrics and the music caught me enough to truly connect me. Sure this is a good album, but I don’t have a discerning ear. 1/5

Another modern album I haven't heard of, excited for this one Offence-interesting song, would’ve liked for a little less monotone in rapping style Boss- another striking song, not sure how l feel about the hook Selfish- chorus really good, verses flesh conceit out👍 Wounds- great flow, good feature👍 Venom- fast paced, very dynamic 👍 101FM- this is v fun with a great instrumental 👍 Pressure- just okay to me Therapy- liked lyrics and chorus, maybe she should try therapy tho lol👍 Sherbet sunset-great beat, chorus, impassioned lyrics 👍 Flowers- album ends with reflection on other artist, again just alright to me Maybe I wasn't in the right place for this today, but this album did not engage my full attention throughout. Very stick and well put together 3/5

Mouth for war-guess I’d better get used to screaming. Lots of impressive riffs, lyrics are quite generic A New level -another great instrumental, but l hate the way he says unscarred by trials for some reason, guitar solo pretty cool👍 Walk-pretty good, vocals a bit better imo👍 Fucking hostile- like chorus, think verses a bit cliche This love - nice contrast between softer verses and more metal chorus. Would lose the spoken parts though.👍 Rise- great guitar work, otherwise okay. No good- not a very nuanced take, I was distracted by lyrics for this one Live in a hole- Not like other girls, again another great riff Regular people - good if long intro, again l like the contrast between verse and chores👍 By demons be driven- edgy stuff, I have not liked any of the spoken word Hollow- a change of pace from most of the album, not great All in all didn't really get into this album, not really my thing. By the end I felt as it l had heard the next song already 2/5

Time becomes- a loop. Love the worf sample Planet of the Shapes - I don’t have much to say tbh.. Lush 3-1 - I was hiccuping which I think adds to the long Lush 3.2 - this is literally the same thing Gave up on individual songs, all blend into one. I could not just sit and not do anything except listen to this album. Ultimate background music. DO people still dance to this? 1/5

Politik- quite generic verses and chorus In my place- I like instrumental, think rest is quite mediocre God put a smile upon your face - recognisable riff, verses actually have a melody this time👍 The scientist - just alright Clocks - catchy and memorable👍 Daylight - the verses go very slowly, this is background to me. Why do all songs on this album have to be 5 minutes Green Eyes - quite cute , quite jarring when the piano comes in Warning sign- l like the idea of purposefully searching for warning signs and reflecting that was the wrong thing todo , solid song👍 A whisper - not Sure about first chorus , has a good energy and guitar another long Outro for no particular reason A rush of blood to the head - bit of a narrative , nice buildup to first chorus, nice Instrumental👍 Amsterdam- dull until the outro, not enough to make up for rest of track This album is just very mediocre on the whole, lyrics are quite simplistic and some songs monotonous. I did really like some of the tracks but I don't think the whole album is that compelling 2/5

The state I am in- alright Expectations- very good instrumental, lyrics bit on the nose but tell a good story👍 She's losing it- jaunty song about (political?) lesbians You're just a baby- bit creepy tbh, but nice and upbeat Electronic renaissance - love the vibe of the song interesting vocal effects👍 I could be dreaming- pretty groovy and v interesting👍 We rule the school - meh, pretty uninteresting My wandering days are over - nice chorus and lyrics👍 I don't love anyone-bit boring and repetitive Mary Jo - bit too real lol, V good👍 All in all a well put together album especially considering circumstances. This is definitely more my typical type of Music 3/5

Do it again- great song, good lyrics and groovy instrumental 👍 Dirty Work - nice bit of sax , pleasant to listen to Kings - a history reference and a political allegory? Very well put together👍 Midnite Cruiser- pretty groovy Only a fool would say that - incredibly cynical, great song and perhaps response👍 Reelin' in the years - catchy, another great instrumental👍 Fire in the hole - Vietnam song. I love the piano instrumental👍 Brooklyn - bit more of a laid back song Change of the guard - more optimistic song about positive change. Another Catchy song Turn that heartbeat over again- interesting narrative of junkie and criminal trying to justify his actions👍 Pretty much every song here is very solid, instrumental always outstanding 5/5

Procession- intro song Father to son- Standard theatrical queen fare. Nice guitar solo White queen- interesting song with almost lady of shallot like qualities👍 Some day one day- a Brian May vocal. Quite twee The loser in the end - Roger Taylor song ö Quite heavy instrumental Ogre battle- fairytale tunes for quite a few songs now. Pretty novel and also good instrumental.👍 The fairy fellers master stroke- once you see the painting makes more sense. Very inventive to take inspiration from obscure painting👍 Nevernore- seamless transition. Short and Sweet👍 The march of the black queen - companion piece to the white queen from side 1 . Another impressively put together song👍 Funny how love is - very Sharp turn into Beatles b sidesesque. Quite grating Seven seas of rye- only song I've listened to before. Catchier than l remember👍 Second side of the record is much stronger, apart from penultimate song• All in all creative and listenable , concepts built upon in subsequent albums 4/5

Seemed to have lost notes

Classic album Second hand news - pretty good yeah👍 Dreams- masterpiece👍 Never going back again - focus on guitar Don't stop - lol I never realised this was a duet Go your own way - other side to dreams, another amazing sing👍 Songbird - gentle but powerful👍 The chain - makes you miss the BBC F1 coverage👍 You make loving fun - cute funky song I don't wanna know- pretty filler Oh daddy- my least favourite on the album Gold dust woman - V atmospheric👍 Obviously a great album. Maybe blasphemous but 4/5

Tangled up in blue- interesting and complex narrative with a short hook and a great instrumental👍 Simple twist of fate- another solid narrative👍 You're a big girl now- pretty devastating song about an almost one sided breakup👍 Idiot wind - bit too long and meandering for my tastes You're going to make me lone some when you go- pretty catchy👍 Meet me in the morning- bit samey after a while Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts - not something would want to listen to frequently, but enjoyable If you see her say hello - conflict between obvious vulnerability that he feels and his attempt to present as stoic masculine figure👍 Shelter from the storm - One of the weaker tracks Buckets of rain- just okay All in all, l was pleasantly surprised as l wouldn't consider myself a fan of Bob Dylan. However, some very good tracks on here 4/5

Don't stop TIL you get enough - A bop Rock with you - this is so smooth👍 Workin' day and night - another great groovy song Get on the floor - another vibe👍 Off the wall - creepy laugh.. But l love the chorus👍 Girlfriend- Sorry Paul, don't like this She's out of my life- a slower song. Emotion in vocals good if a little faux in places (voile break at end). I can't help it - Great instrumental, not sure about ad libs It's the falling in love - duet, quite peppy feel but with almost despairing lyrics👍 Burn this disco out - fun dance song👍 Very strong album, pleasant. I prefer albums that have a bit more lyrical substance so 4/5

I've been waitin' for tomorrow - starts off with a heavy beat, gradually builds. Solid start This is the day - jarring between upbeat tempo and quite depressing lyrics👍 The sinking feeling- I love angst👍 Uncertain smile - just okay for me, lengthy piano solo The twilight hour - really like lyrical themes here👍 Soul mining- bit more low key with fun instrumental👍 Giant - v long repetitive Outro Perfect- going to rate this one even though it's contentious. Instrumental 👍 I'm interested in revisiting this album, seems like it could get better with afew relistens. For now, 4/5

Young lust- Lyrics iffy in parts but Catchy👍 Fine- next level of horniness Love in an elevator - heard of this song, but didn't actually know how it went. V catchy👍 Monkey on my back- bit of self reflection about excessive drug use. Janie's got a gun- poignant song about sexual abuse and the resulting consequences👍 The other side - quite generic but also hella catchy👍 My girl- meh Don't get mad get even- chorus is very blah Voodoo Medicine man- drums standout but bit melodramatic and taking itself too seriously. What it takes - this sounds like it could be on the soundtrack on a cheesy film. Also I kinda hate the random callback to fine.

Listening in background Jazz just isn't my thing to listen to intently 2/5

Dog eat dog- chorus doesn't do anything for me Ant music - pre chorus and chorus catchy👍 Feed me to the Lions - random hey hos in chorus really throw me off Los Rancheros - what is with the random chanting in the chorus? Quite fun tho👍 Ants invasion - not sure what he's going on about but I like it👍 Killer in the home - quite repetitive, not a catchy hook. Kings of the wild frontier- some weird pretending to be native American which makes me uncomfortable today, but this is undeniably interesting👍 The magnificent five- someone take the western movies away😭 Don't be square - feel like I'm joining a cult👍 Jolly Roger- this is bizarre, feel like I'm listening to an ancestor of stand and deliver, think I'd rather listen to that Making history - I like this one, think it is quite clever👍 The human beings- very simple lyrically, I think this works. At least he's finally stopped relating the band to a nouveau native American tribe Very interesting album, with different vibes, including some very themed songs. Lyrical content questionable sometimes 3/5

The dolphins-👍 I've got a secret - good vibes That's the bag I'm in - bluesy vibe 👍 Ba-di-da - another good vibe,, especially at end👍 Fare thee well - quite dull Everybody's talkin' - good melody, solid song👍 Everything happens- quite standard song Sweet cocaine - don't do cocaine kids😡 Green rocky road - meh Cynicrust Pete Fred john Raga- weird Indian inspired instrumental Definitely a pleasant album to listen to with smooth singing. Just a bit pedestrian for me now. 3/5

Dominion/ mother Russia- pretty interesting dramatic start. All transitions really solid and I'm a sucker for pretentious poetry references👍 Flood l- instrumental drowns vocals out. Honestly was kinda getting intoit at the end but definitely something to be listened to in the context of the album and not on it own Lucretia, my reflection- this is quite petty lol, musically v solid👍 1959- held back track with just piano and melodramatic vocals. This corrosion- starts with choir . Jesus this guy sounds like a dick no wonder all his bandmates left. Wrote a 9 minute song bitching about he thinks his former band mates lyricism is shit Flood II - better version of flood I👍 Driven like the snow - fairly lowkey for this album, nice track👍 Never land (a fragment)- v meh Rating Cd tracks: torch - sounds like he's given up in the vocal department. Like the flute(?) solo Colours- doesn't do enough for long One of those band but not really a band projects. Feel like this could be atmospheric but I was interrupted. Feel like with the 80s synth sound l should like it more, but idk some lyrics didn't appeal to me. 3/5.

Holy wars... The punishment due - strong start, guitar is obviously going to be a main focus Hangar 18 - this is pretty cool👍 Take no prisoners- great riff👍 Five magics - quite long intro. Like how guitar interacts with vocal line. What in the dungeons and dragons are these lyrics. Great outdo solo Poison was the care- Guitar great as always, but vocals are fast and too drowned out for me, especially considering personal topic Lucretia- this is a bop tbh. What a nice ghost😊👍 Tornado of Souls - another great 1-2 of vocals then solo👍 Dawn patrol - how does this sound like a mole Rust in peace... Polaris- weird framing device singing from perspective of missile. Kinda weird also cold war is over thought you'd like to know This isn't really my thing, but is a great put together album. 3/5

Listened to this in the car . Very much a jam session kinda vibe. Favourite songs: shut up, higgle-higgle-dy-piggedly,complication, drunken Maria,blast off! 3/5

Something for the weekend - I really hate the socalled 'tittering females'. The old switcheroo at the end Becoming more like Alfie- honestly, I don't know the reference. Pretty catchy but some questionable lyrics👍 Middle class heroes - loves spoken intros. This is boring and cynical In and out in Paris and London - creepy and rapey. Instrustal sounds like Thomas the tank engine music. Charge- obvious and crass metaphor Songs of love- generic The frog princess- hmm.. Not sure how to heel about this one. Definitely better than some tracks but still quite dramatic for no reason A woman of the world- chorus in chorus makes it sound like a musical. Definitely very theatrical👍 Through a long and sleepless night- this is incredibly overblown The theme from Casanova - and now we have boring Muzak for some reason. And it is six minutes long The horses and the dogs- what in the off off broadway is this? Half of this album is unbearably dramatic, and overplayed, the other half is frankly creepy. Also thought his singing was too tryhard. Didn't come out as fun and tongue in cheek as it was meant imo. 1 /5

Purple Haze- A fantastic start to the album👍 Manic depression- guitar solo is next level👍 Hey Joe- A more bluesy inspired sung Love or confusion - another guitar driven song👍 May this be love- A more laid back and gentle song, just beautiful👍 I don't live today- another blues track and obviously Guitar is next level The wind cries Mary - quite a sweet melancholic song👍 Fire - just okay compared to other songs on the album Third stove from The Sun- groovy mostly instrumental Foxey Lady - meh Are you experienced - a very experimental and psychedelic track👍 This is a masterpiece 5/5

Don't go near the water - this is so on the nose, could be sung to kids Long promised road- musically strong, lyrics quite simple👍 Take a load of your feet- nursery rhyme core Disney Girls (1957) - people are always wishing for simpler times, musically simple Student demonstration time - musically a cover, this doesn't do anything for me Feel Flows - instrumental is pretty cool👍 Lookin' at tomorrow (a welfare song) - almost an interlude, sonically interesting A day in the life of a tree- Classic beach boys harmonies👍 'Til I die - this is a very tight song, incredible harmonies👍 Surfs up- sections don't link together organically for me I think the overly political songs on this album are lacking all subtlety. Just wasn't my fave, I like the bait and switch with the title tho. 2/5

Dee-Lite theme - Kinda intro song Good beat - I don't expect anything to be lyrically complicated so I guess l just want to hear a good beat?👍 Power of love- a vibe, not a very catchy hook Try me on... I'm very you - this a very good vibe👍 Smile on- A bit twee for me What is love?- weird song with just spoken vocals and a weird sample. Still works as a song generally World clique- lyrics don't really make sense, lots going on with production ESP- really cool song, especially effects on vocals👍 Groove is in the heart - never heard this rap verse before, but otherwise a bop👍 Who was that - home invasion core. Pretty bizarre Deep ending - standard dance song Build the bridge - this song sounds like orbital Very good vibe, again more of a background vibe 3/5

Lets see how this goes Kentucky- feel like I need to get used to this sound, whole album will sound like this I'll be all smiles tonight- Gay icon? Fairly repetitive but cute enough👍 Let her go, God bless her- more of the same What is home without love - harmonies good on this one but so boring. Where is the murder? A tiny broken heart- stupid seven year old In the pines - the chorus is good here, nice little instrumental. Sad that this isn't the decapitation version 👍 Alabama - just Kentucky again Katie Dear- everyone is a bit dramatic My brothers will - wow Sally is a snake Knoxville Girl- this is the murder I was waiting for. No justification given👍 Take the news to mother - boring even for the standard of this album Mary of the wild moor --Nice depressing song to finish Really one song sounds like them all on this album but I don't hate the one song! 2/5

Lost notes but we know about this album 5/5

Teen age riots- not quite an anthem, bit too laidback for the subject matter Silver Rocket - instrumental pretty insane👍 The sprawl- long outro which made me feel nothing 'Cross the breeze- like the Guitar work more on this track👍 Eric’s trip- sounds pretty cool👍 Total trash- very interesting but not I would want to listen to often. Again quite long, maybe for good reason Hey Joni- this is a well put together song, I don’t really connect to it Providence- this isnt really a song, just random shit Candle- all a bit obscure, enjoyable 👍 Rain king Kissability-👍 Wasn’t very focused on this today, might be worth relisten at some point 3/5

Surprised evermore was chosen over folklore Willow - great start, catchy and I love guitar👍 Champagne problems- One of my fave songs, love storytelling on this👍 Gold rush - this song really grew on me, love atmosphere👍 'Tis the damn season- another strong narrative song, love the telling from the other side on Dorothea👍 Tolerate it - bridge is amazing👍 No body no crime- goodbye Earl vibes👍 Happiness -v bittersweet song, trying hard not to give every thing ticks lol Dorothea- this is a such a cute song, gives me honey pie vibes👍 Coney Island- this is the weakest song on the album imo. Just not a vibe I identify with Ivy- this is a daphne de Maurier bop👍 Cowboy like me- just alright Long story short-a bop, but one of the weaker boos on the album Marjorie- a sister to epiphany, very beautiful but not something I would want to listen to all the time Closure- this song is over hated👍 Evermore- this song is a good Outro👍 Who am I kidding? 5/5

Tudo o Que Você Podia Ser- this is very groovy, with great changes in song👍 Cais - almost wistful song, had weird stereo bit at the end O Trem Azul - this was really catchy👍 Saidas e Bandeiras n° 1- very lively interlude Nuvem Cigana - another lively song Cravo e canela - love backing vocals, again catchy👍 Dos cruces - I feel ballads are harder to get into without understanding the lyrics because much more stripped down instrumental. Gets enjoyably dramatic at the end. Um girassol da cor do seu cabelo - has a slower part, then a discordant interlude where after the music picks up speed and intensity very cool👍 I should remember to save, lost last few songs of first half paisagem de Janela -didn't really grab me, also very quick fadeout at end Me deixa em paz- very nice female vocalist on this one👍 Os povos- bit dull Saidas e Bandeiras n°2 - very similar to before Um Gosta del sol - quite long song with drawnout instrumental at end Pelo amor de Deus - this is v interesting and quite distorted👍 Lilia- mostly instrumental with frankly annoying whelping in the background Trem de Doido - nice electric guitar👍 Nada sera COMO antes - didn't grab me Ao Que Vai Nascer- again a bit laid back to start, then again livens up For a album where I can't understand the lyrics, this managed to retain my attention 4/5

School - Let's be honest, another brick in the wall did this better Notes keep getting deleted Favourite tracks: bloody well right, asylum Rudy- just a bit dull If everyone was listening - wow what an original metaphor /s Crime of the century- outro is fine l guess This is a blah album 2/5

God! Show me the magic - fine, catchy enough Fuzzy bird- don't know what is going on there Something 4 the weekend- obligatory drug song, but its pretty fun song👍 Frisbee - this is background music to me Hometown unicorn- chorus is pretty lazy If you don't want me to destroy you - sounds like a reject blur song Bad behaviour. - Outro is really cool so I'm gonna give the repetitiveness a pass👍 Mario man- don't know what's going on but I dig it👍 Hangin' with Howards Marks - vocals are so drowned out but doesn't really matter with nonsensical lyrics anyway Long gone - some interesting instrumentation but not good enough vocals to carry repeated lyric. Some weird laughing at end For now and ever-??? Yeah most of the songs I was ambivalent to or didn't like 1/5

The pain of loving you - sounds like she needs to drop this man Making plans - nice emotions in voice👍 To know him is to love him - this song doesn't do much for me Hobo's meditation- asking the important logistical questions about living arrangements in heaven Wildflowers - couldn't be me but a bop. This is a great song👍 Telling me lies- bars, men are trash👍 My dear companion and the memories of you - both reiterations of making plans but in the future I've had enough - finally She's leaving him. This is a well written song but too slow for me Rosewood casket - meh Farther along - this doesn't work it you don't believe in God Very nice harmonies, pleasant album 3/5

Berlin- introduction to characters… don't know how l feel about concept albums Lady day- wasn't compelling to me Men of good fortune - quite a cynical take Caroline says I- despite rhyming vial with vile, I still quite like this song👍 How do you think it feels - the come here mama refrains are quite off putting but the instrumental is a bop Oh Jim - this is an interesting song, a dialogue in two parts👍 Caroline says Ii - Caroline is not having a good time👍 The kids- not the children crying lool i can't take this seriously The bed - Jesus Christ this is grim Sad song - and everybody lived unhappily ever after... This album was just not for me 2/5

Summer cauldron- samples are ingenious here👍 Grass- catchy but not my thing The meeting place - the bells in the chorus really remind me of the ring doorbell sound That's really super, supergirl - love the production on this one, is quite kitsch Ballet for a rainy day - great imagery in this song👍 1000 umbrellas- lots of strings on this one, very angst Season cycle- V cute👍 Earn enough for us- vocals a bit whiny on this one Big day- cynical wedding songs are not my genre. Another satellite - gotta respect dedication to the metaphor👍 Mermaid smiled- more tropical instrumentation diversifies this song The man who sailed around his soul- almost a bossa nova feel here, enjoyed this track👍 Dying - quite simple musically. Lyrics capture that some memories remain in your mind however trivial Sacrificial bonfire - sounds like a song in a shit musical about pagans Dear God- bars at the end tbh👍 I liked the first side more but all in all a very pleasant listening experience Very Beatles esque 4/ 5

To be Young - boring Bob Dylan knockoff The winding wheel - this is decent Amy- another dull song Oh my sweet Carolina- this is a sweet song, easy to listen to👍 Bartering lines- this is quite atmospheric in a background way Call me on your way back home- lyric very cliché Gave up on track ratings, nothing else stuck out to me God this album is The epitome of boring. Just a lot of blah 1/5

Just a little lovin'- fairly basic song So much love - as above Son of a preacher man- v catchy👍 I don't wanna hear it anymore - nice little narrative song Don't forget about me- quite simple, but effective and snappy. Ends a bit abruptly👍 Breakfast in bed- like the vocal on this track particularly Just one smile- babes you gotta more on The windmills of your mind- I love the vibe and build of this song. Amazing👍 In the land of make believe- feel like this is in the same vein as many other tracks here No easy way down - I like lyrics and sentiment on this song👍 I can't make it alone- meh I don't vibe with this Vocals consistently great and v expressive. Think some songs can get a bit samey but also some great songs on here 3/5

Pleasantly surprised at this one, when thinking about my dislike for the genre.. Generally good transitions and some fun tracks Favourites: since I left you, Radio, tonight may have to last me all of my life Least fave: Frontier psychiatrist 4/5

Clowns- don't like garbled vocals here, sounds like those what English sounds like to non-English speakers Little Bird- lyrics intentionally simplistic.l like production on this Happiness- like lyrics, production👍 Road to somewhere - definitely conjures up a particular vibe effectively👍 Eat yourself- weird unintelligible vocals Some people-completely unremarkable A+E - love concept of song, executed well. Also production at end👍 Colonge ceronne Houdini - another aimless journey song Caravan girl-- this is another perfectly fine but unremarkable song Monster love - interesting concept but doesn't click for me personally Middle of the road for me. Mostly pleasant but nothing stands out except A+E Worst: clowns 3/5

Strolling down the highway- perfectly fine song Smokey mountain - instrumental, pleasant to listen to Oh how your love is strong - nothing stand out so far I have no time- feel like he's coming for somebody👍 Couple more instrumentals Needle of death- pretty blunt which l think is effective here👍 Do you hear me now - snoozy protest song Ramblings gonna be the death of me - God knows this song rambles enough Alice's wonderland - Nice instrumental Runnin from home - like lyrics, quite sad👍 Courting blues - kinda creepy Casbah - another instrumental, quite twangy Dreams of love- another simplistic song, again unremarkable Angie- end with another instrumental This really didn't grab my attention at all. Pleasant to listen to but not much else 2/5

Janie Jones - seems like a bit of a dick Remote control- fine tune👍 I'm so bored with the USA- facts still. Nice fake out👍 White riot- idk this seems to me to be co-opting riots for own personal gain. Maybe unintentionally white nationalist Hate+ war- doesn't do anything for me What's my name- not fan of chorus, some verses quite clever Deny- meh Londons burning- nice verses👍 Career opportunities- this is very catchy, solid song all around👍 Cheat- rhyming quite lame protex blue - low effort condom song Police & thieves - refreshingly different from rest of album, doesn't justify its length for me 48 hours - this is filler Garageland - is snobbery punk? Fave track: career opportunities Least fave - white riots Lots of tracks short and don't have much impact. Some good songs and I'm not really a fan of punk so I'll give this 3/5

Walk on - bit salty but a good tune👍 See the sky about to rain- This doesn’t really stand out, just quite a chill track Revolution blues-Manson cosplay core, I guess it does what it intends?👍 For the turnstiles-quite an array of metaphors, makes it quite incoherent Vampire blues- This metaphor doesn’t do it for me. Also feel a lot of ‘blues’ tracks are quite lazy sonically On the beach- boring Motion pictures- this is a sweet little song 👍 Ambulance blues- a stream of consciousness great for falling asleep to This was quite a boring album, don’t have much to say about this 2/5

Not really my thing but interesting enough 3/5

Hello- solid single to start us out👍 Send my love- catchy but not much substance I Miss you - strange vibe with this one When we were young- love vocals on this one👍 Remedy- this is an ultrageneric piano ballad All rest of songs are similarly meh to me Is this a competent album? Yes but its also really fucking boring 2/5

Maybe wasn't the right day for me to listen to this intently, so it was more in the background. Music is solid if a little stretched out, lyrics more conjuring up a mood l guess? Idk having a companion book to explain the album is weird. Seems like a dumb story anyway Fave tracks: inertiatic esp,eriatarka

Beautiful day - big single , suitably atmospheric👍 Stuck in a moment you can't get out of- sounds like beautiful by James blunt in the chorus. Don't think it’s quite upbeat enough for the message Elevation- this is whatever, very dad music Walk on - very similar themes to previous songs Kite- this is sweet but safe👍 In a little while- Nonce song with wolf howls for some reason Wild Honey to Grace- All pretty generic and some terrible songs in this run. New York has a really jarring guitar riff that comes in sometimes that feels very uninspired The ground beneath her feet- Wait, the lyrics are by Salman Rushdie?! This was the first U2 album I’ve listened to.. hopefully its not representative of their whole oeuvre 1/5

Band on the run - very Paul McCartney👍 Jet- never realised how nonsense lyrics are but still r solid👍 Bluebird - its no blackbird... Mrs Vanderbilt - fun song👍 Let me roll it- Nice song with a reference to George👍 Manunia- another great background to this, a bit too sentimental for me No words - left no impression Picassos last words - another charming story behind the track . Lots of padding including samples from previous songs on the album which l find weird Nineteen hundred and eighty five- bit weird, end bit seems like its trying too hard to be A day in the life's ending but enjoyed overall👍 Biased Paul McCartney Stan but this is very solid 4/5

I know far too little about jazz to know if this is good jazz or not, I assume it is? Again, maybe because I’m completely ignorant to this music I just think of it as background music that I can’t really distinguish from much other jazz music. 2/5

Favourite songs: the changeling, love her madly, L'America, hyacinth house, riders in the storm Least favourite: crawling king snake Really good album front to back 5/5

The old gold shoe - boring and meandering Grumps- Has a bit more to it but not a fan of the lyrics personally You Masculine You- hate the extended falsetto throughout the song Favourite songs:Up with people, the books I haven’t read Yeah I found this album quite annoying, especially the falsetto songs. Just because I didn’t listen to this closely I’m giving this 2/5 as I may have missed some depth behind the lyrics?

This didn't really work for me. A lot of the tracks faded into each other, it seemed quite patische at times , and l hated the across the universe cover Favourite tracks: win, fascination, fame Least fave: across the universe 2/5

Solid funky album Fave songs: that Lady, if you were there, sunshine, summer breeze 4/5

I feel nothing 1/5

This is a really engaging and entertaining live set. A lot of established classics performed well. Shame about the performer 3/5

Have heard a lot of acclaim for this album! Suite II Overture- Definitely sets theatrical sound Dance or Die- This is so catchy and also very dense with worldbuilding👍 Faster-starts new ‘thread’ of story, solid but.. Locked out- I like this better👍 Sir Greendown- still sounds cohesive despite its difference, very dreamy Cold War- Catchy Tightrope- Bit too much going on here for me Neon Gumbo- Weird segue Oh Maker- Performed extremely well, cute little ditty👍 Come alive- That scream is impressive but unpleasant Mushrooms and Roses- Cool psychedelic track, very full with guitars Suite III Overture Neon Valley Street- Another cute change of tack Make the bus- Basically someone else’s song? Still good tho👍 Wondaland- Bop tbh👍 57821- the harmonies on this are top tier👍 Last two songs are long and grand Definitely an experience, need to revisit when I’m a bit fresher. 5/5

Quite passable

Last of the true believers- Great opening track really setting vibe of album👍 Love at the five and dime- Sweet song about a slightly dysfunctional relationship👍 St Olavs gate- Didn’t stand out to me More than a whisper-Cute lyrics here Banks of the Pontchartrain- Very solid upbeat song👍 Lookin for the time- Like the live version more but this is still 👍 Goin’ Gone- Find the conceit pretty uninteresting here One of these days, Love’s found a shoulder- Perfectly charming songs Fly by night- Another great tune, love the carefree lyrics👍 Wing and the wheel- Doesn’t do much for me Very pleasant album, I love her vocals and there is some good tunes on the track list. Found a few of the slower tracks more boring, but that’s just personal preference. 4/5

Only shallow- interesting musically, hope I can understand some of the lyrics in other songs 👍 Loomer- another vibey song👍 Touched- Weird short instrumental To here knows when-this is so distorted I basically can’t hear anything above that I only said- much the same as other tracks Come in alone- good guitar work on here👍 Sometimes- doesn’t do enough to justify the drowned out vocals Blown a wish-vocals seem nice- wish I could hear them👍 What you want- again more of the same Soon- yeah I’m glad this has ended This got more and more frustrating to me. It’s just not my style, I feel like I’m on an airplane and my ears have gone because of the change in pressure. 2/5

Sympathy for a devil- a classic. Appreciate the historical references here 👍 No expectations- Solid blues song with some good lyrics👍 Dear doctor- really bad patische of a country song Parachute woman- feel like I’ve heard this sort of song multiple times Jig-saw puzzle- Nice surrealist song👍 Street fighting man- quite catchy tbh👍 Prodigal song- Doesn’t amount to much here, seems like filler Stray cat blues- pedophilia song, those were the days🤮 Factory girl- The country vibes are not working for me Salt of the earth- This song just seems disjointed and I don’t want to have to hear Keith Richards voice Solid enough, I’m not sure the country inspired tracks work for me and some songs seem similar to songs already encountered. 3/5

Arise - its one of these albums.. Dead embryonic cells - points just for the little Tbh👍 Desperate cry - some nice differentiation here between two sections Murder- cheery titles.. Cute👍 All other songs much the same Altered state👍 I guess this is good for what it is but it just doesn't appeal to me 3/5

Do the strand- mostly just nonsense and not even particularly catchy Beauty queen- showed a lot more promise than it had Strictly confidential- This was quite dull Editions of you- Bit more upbeat/enjoyable, lyrics seem like afterthought at points👍 In every dream home a heartache- this was pretty funny ngl 👍 The bogus man- V long instrumental outro that doesn’t add much Grey lagoon- Fun track, saxophones a bit unsubtle👍 For your pleasure- Again another unnecessary drawn out instrumental Am I too picky?? This didn’t do much for me, just seemed overdrawn and bloated in length for some songs 2/5

Money Changes everything- I like the verses, could do with being a bit shorter Girls just want to have fun- This is iconic and catchy, feels like it probably got a major boost by being sung by a woman and not some creepy man👍 When you were mine- Prince cover, I think vocals are strong and expressive👍 Time after time- I find this song kinda cheesy, nice instrumentation She bop- Love that for her👍 All through the night- This was dull Witness- could grow to be a bop to me👍 I’ll kiss you- Quite a novel song, if not a little weird Yeah yeah- weird vocal things kinda ruin song for me I enjoyed this album, but didn’t wow me. There’s some missed potential with a few of the songs. 3/5

She has funny cars- Interesting harmonies but don’t think song gets across point very well Somebody to love- love how it sounds quite ominous and intense👍 My best friend- me to my cat Today- very lowkey but gorgeous love song👍 Comin’ back to me- Another wistful song, with some beautiful lyrics, also the hook being just the title really works👍 3/5 of a mile in 10 seconds- think instrumental is groovy, vocals don’t really work for me here Dcba-25, how do you feel- both sound a bit like rejected Beatles songs tbh Embryonic journey- cute little instrumental White rabbit- honestly Lewis Carroll carried psychedelia, icon👍 Plastic fantastic lover- there have always been tv is bad songs I guess👍 Very strong album with a bit of fluff in the middle. 4/5

Very pleasant album to listen to, with smooth instrumental and vocals. Favourite songs: Smooth operator, Your love is king, hang on to your love, cherry pie 4/5

Bone machine- okay,, interesting note to start out on Break my bones- another bone song Something against you- not sure what’s going on here Broken face- short and bombastic👍 Gigantic- good hook, love a female vocal👍 River Euphrates- another in your face track, and I like the premise here👍 Where is my mind?- A justified classic👍 Cactus- weird but also kinda dull Tonys theme- quite random but music is good Other songs continue is similiar theme, feel like i would have to listen to this more times to appreciate. 3/5

Favourite songs: Four women, Lilac wine, That’s all I ask, Break down and let it all out, either way I lose Phenomenal talent 4/5

Red Intro How many mics- one of the many tracks flexing about their rap abilities Ready or not- only really heard the chorus to this before, but very solid track👍 Zealots- Lauryn Hills verse is insanely good here👍 The beast- Poignant social commentary with a random skit at the end Fu-gee-la- very catchy chorus👍 Family business- a bit all over the place, quite fast paced and another skit Killing me softly with his song- Lauryn Hill can truly play both sides👍 The score- this almost seems like the culmination to the album, with the constant samples from other tracks, lots of emphasis on mcing flexing again and A SKIT The mask- The verses are all so good here👍 Cowboys-This is quite a packed song No woman no cry- Classic song, great cover👍 Manifest/Outro- Lauryns verse goes so so hard, last half is weird outro. This album really felt like an event, I’m not sure about the skit interludes but songs really show level of talent and cohesion that is seriously impressive. WOW 4/5

Little child runnin’ wild- Solid setup by disillusioned youth👍 Pusherman- POV from dealer. Softer than I would expect, vocals in chorus quite sinister which is fitting. Freddies dead- blunt and forthright👍 Junkies chase- instrumental Give me your love- generic in all aspects Eddie you should know better- For a song presumably tied to the movie, it works as a standalone👍 No thing on me- very smooth track👍 Think- fine instrumental superfly- The instrumental is very good on this track, overall catchy song👍 This didnt draw me in as much as i hoped but still very solid. 3/5

Hard times- quite a simple song with simple rhymes Rock box- Some nice fusion kinda sounds with electric guitar 👍 Jam master Jay- love the hype for the producer👍 Hollis Crew-another pretty simple straightforward brag track Sucker MCs- fun song with simple but effective backing beat👍 Its like that- song seems to plod a bit for me, just not strong enough combination of lyrics/beat for me Wake up- this is the beginning of a good idea, could be elevated more👍 Again, I am taking this album out of context as the fundamental and influential trailblazer that it is, but we can really see this is laying the foundations and what has been built up out of it is much better overall. 2/5

Astronomy domine- Kinda crazy this came out before man stepped on the moon. Honestly pretty obvious production for a grand space song, but I have to assume this is pioneering👍 Lucifer Sam- gives off anti cat vibes Matilda Mother-this feels like a precursor to Queen, a little more laid back but an interesting instrumental nonetheless. Doesn’t really pull together as a track Flaming- Pretty uninteresting LSD track Pow R Toc H- god this is as boring as you can get More boring (almost) instrumentals (Take Up thy stethoscope, interstellar overdrive) The gnome- This is the worst LSD song I’ve ever heard Chapter 24- Not quite sure how this is an example of genius, randomly taking a chapter from an important Eastern book but ok The scarecrow- This is fine, quiet catchy👍 Bike- outro is interesting, rest is twee nonsense I’m not sure I even like good Pink Floyd 1/5

Pigs- Obvious police song with some good lyrics and linked to that nursery rhyme that I didn’t like How I could just kill a man- Catchy hook, if not repetitive, and quite interesting. guitar in background👍 Hand on the pump-Think we’re getting a theme, this is pretty engaging👍 Hole in the Head- This is a bit obnoxious and we get it at this point Ultraviolet dreams-short interlude Light another- Probably a more positive life philosophy, to abuse drugs rather than kill people👍 The phuncky feel one- Funky enough👍 Break up- Didn’t realise this was a separate song Real Estate- Quite annoying tbh, also what is his obsession with ducats Stoned is the way of the walk- doesn’t do much for me, doesn’t feel like beat matches flow psychobetabuckdown- No idea what this means, but I like it👍 Something for the blunted- stoner interlude Latin lingo-this is a fun concept, we love a language mix and match👍 The Funky Cypress Hill Shit- This is quite long and lyrics are quite generic, not my fave Tres Equis- This truly is TripleX Born to get busy- Almost a reiteration of mission statements- smoke weed This album is a little too long for me, with many phrases noticeably repeated between songs. I think production elements are interesting and there are a variety of styles, but just not really for me 3/5

Carry on-cute little two parter, if a little indulgent👍 Teach your children- this is teetering on the edge of sentimentality for me Almost cut my hair- I like the music, but it all seems a bit overdramatic in the lyrics department. I get the long hair anti military thing now, but still, a bit melodramatic Helpless- I like the idea, wish chorus was a bit stronger👍 Woodstock- quite a funny thing to cover if the description is true, but sorry Joni, find this quite saccharine Deja vu-I like this song. Starts off quite fast paced before becoming more ruminating and vibey👍 Our House- this shouldn’t work for me, its so sickly sweet, but just so cute I can’t help liking it👍 20 + 4- bit of a throwaway Country girl- This is so overblown and too loud, good foundation but doesn’t work as a whole Everybody I love you- This definitely feels like a closing track, the instrumental does pop off👍 All in all, this is a bit incohesive for me, but I am a sucker for some of these. Enjoyed overall, 3/5

In the flesh?- Start to our concept, jaded artist The thin ice- Interesting POV from mother talking to baby👍 Another brick in the wall, Pt 1- I feel the all-encompassing metaphor of the wall is a bit obvious and will be a point we labour on. I don’t mind this song, verse lyrics are good, but outro is too long and plain Happiest days of our lives- Bit of a footnote to big song.. Another Brick in the wall pt 2- Big hit from this album, very solid👍 Mother- I like the dichotomy of starting the ‘mothers’ verse with a soothing phrase and then reinforcing negative thinking, instilling it into the child👍 Goodbye Blue Sky- Turning away from the childhood part of the album Next part(Empty Spaces, Young Lust👍, One of my turns)-Showing descent into madness/misanthropy Don’t leave me now- bit of a selfpitying dirge Another Brick in the wall pt 3- well we’ve been here before Hey you- Bit of an optimistic?? slant before diving back into to loneliness and rejection in next songs Bring the boys back home- Satirical patriotic type song Comfortably numb- The other big song, good guitar solos👍 Also liked Run Like Hell-👍 I understand this record is a behemoth that I just can’t really tackle head on right now. I’m just going to give this a 3/5 and maybe come back to it at a later date

Station to station- I have to say I’d never heard of the Thin White Duke but I guess he’s back Golden years- A little long but still a good tune👍 Word on a wing- Desperate prayer, very solid👍 TVC 15- this is catchy and inspired by a funny story Stay- great funky guitars and I like lyrics👍 Wild is the wind- Good cover, I wonder if I’ve listened to the Nina Simone version? Very tight album with good tunes, songs could be shorter (feels like padding at start and end sometimes) but enjoyable to listen to overall. 4/5

Once- this is a very full song, love the spoken ominous part👍 Even Flow- This is a sad but dramatic look at the life of a homeless man👍 Alive- Wild ride reading the meaning of the lyrics👍 Why Go- Not as compelling and a bit repetitive Black- melodramatic and not a big fan of outro but buildup of atmosphere makes up for it👍 Jeremy- very dark song about a shocking situation Ocean- lighter than most other tracks on this album lyrically, still big sound Porch, Garden- on the surface both of these songs can be seen as reflecting on a failed relationship, with a deeper meaning to be found👍👍 Deep-this is fine Release- long and has an uninteresting outro Great guitar work, I also like lyrics/concepts of songs. Eddie Vedders voice wasn’t my favourite. 4/5

Didnt love this, I just like more tight songs

Finally got around to listening to this properly. Guitar is very standout throughout, I just prefer music with more varied instrumentation. Important topics covered in quite short and snappy shouted phrases. This is a good album if a little overrated 4/5 Favourite tracks: Bombtrack, Killing in the name, bullet in the head, know your enemy

Its kinda weird how into his friends wife he is.. Favourite songs: Bell bottom blues, Keep on growing, I am yours,why does love got to be so sad, little wing, layla

You ain’t the problem- Lively and groovy opener👍 Rolling- Guitar more heavily introduced in this track, v catchy 👍 I’ve been dazed- Smooth transition into slower, more wistful track Piano joint- Intro fine, song proper is beautiful and laid back👍 Another human being- Interlude like, with beautiful harp and leading into next song Living in denial-bop👍 Hero- amazing guitar work👍 Hard to say goodbye- Not substantial enough for its runtime Final days- great melody into interlude Solid ground- This is great, especially when the instrumentation kicks in👍 Light- atmospheric closing track but doesn’t do much for me This is an excellent album, as well as working really well as an album 5/5

This is a pretty charming album, learned to love the raspy voice. I wouldn’t say I quite felt the atmosphere it was going for, but enjoyed it. 4/5 Favourite tracks: On a foggy night, Eggs and sausage, Warm beer and cold women, Spare parts I

Race for the prize- Not the biggest fan of the lyrics but catchy and luscious instrumental makes up for that👍 A spoonful weighs a ton- Bit of a confusing composition, I like riff in middle but not the rest The spark that bled- I don’t think this succeeds for me in forming a narrative The spiderbite song- Interesting percussion👍 What is the light?- cute love(?) song. Full title reeks of pretentiousness 👍 The observer- lofi study music core Waitin’ for a superman- This is just dull Suddenly everything has changed- many songs represent mundaness by grocery shopping. Wonder why that is The gash- maybe I’m just not in the mood but this seems overproduced Feeling yourself disintergrate- i was gonna like this one until i remembered the horrible intro then two remixes.. okay then This is another quite mid indie rock record. 2/5

Yeah this is just the kind of incoherent mumbling that really brings the whole album down. Music good but i can’t give this more than 2/5

NY state of mind- well thats certainly a take on that👍 Lifes a bitch- think i’m gonna have that chorus stuck in my head👍 The world is yours- Chorus a bit overproduced for me, but otherwise v solid Halftime- this is a fun track with a lot of energy and great flow👍 Memory- again not sure i like the skipping vocals One Love- love chorus, story in verses👍 One time 4 your mind- this is fine, didn’t really stick out to me Represent- Another weaker chorus It ain’t hard to tell- I like this brag track, really flows well👍 Not really my type of music, but v accomplished for what it is 4/5

This is a fun album, but defo could be cut down a bit, it overstays its welcome Fave tracks: Sittin’ Here, I luv U,Brand New day, Jezebel

The rulers back- Album starts off with plenty of bravado and great production👍 Takeover- I don’t know enough about this beef to care Izzo- god the production on this track is so good👍 Girls, girls, girls- Funny misogny?? Jigga that N***a- Just another look how rich I am track U Don’t Know- This slaps, I love the play in the chorus👍 Hola Hovtio- Great lyrics in the verses here👍 Heart of the city- Another great chorus, few questionable lyrics for our modern standards but still solid overall👍 Never change- Feel we’re reiterating some previous tracks here Song cry- I wonder why someone would want to break up with him after some songs.. All I Need- this is fine, not that compelling to me Renegade- funny in a rap collab people have to debate who beat who.. they both delivered solid verses but I wish the chorus was a bit stronger👍 Momma loves me- This feels a bit emotionless and going through the motions for me, just monotone throughout Breathe Easy (Lyrical Exercise)- I like an extended metaphor, especially the statistical categories line, but other than that this song is just fine for me Girls girls girls pt 2- I like chorus, meh about other elements This album really grabs your attention throughout with such good production. Maybe a bit overlong but still a v solid album. 4/5

Take on me- one of those timeless songs that never manages to be overplayed. Just so anthemic and joyful 👍 Train of thought- Wish the lyrics hit harder in places and it had a catchier hook, but a very solid song 👍 Hunting high and low- Slower more heartfelt song👍 The blue sky- pretty standard synthpop Living a boys adventure tale- I think the title perfectly encapuslates the clumsiness of this track The suns always shines on TV- great bombastic instrumental, wish lyrics were a bit more connected👍 And You tell me- Mercifully short Love is reason- Inoffensive filler I dream myself alive- Again feel like it could be lyrically elevated, I love the name and think more can be done with the concept. Still a good song👍 Here I stand and face the rain- Love a bit of layering to finish an album, another solid song👍 A beyond iconic song with some nice synthpop tracks to go with it. Really not groundbreaking but I’m glad I listened to it. 3/5

Fave tracks- Attitude,Ratamahatta, Dusted, Jasco The tribal influences in this are very interesting and definitely a departure from typical metal music. Just wasn’t in the right state of mind for this listening experience today. 2/5

Fave tracks: Movin’ on up, higher than the sun, damaged,shine like stars fine background music 2/5

Thank you for sending me an angel- A lively opening track, v short With our love- weird syncopated rhythms The good thing-wish this was a bit catchier tbh Warning sign- Lyrics a bit inane but still a good tune👍 The girls want to be with the girls- Lesbian anthem👍 Found a job- weird domestic scene.. advice to just make a tv show? thats easy Artists only- really like instrumental here, can take or leave lyrics👍 I’m not in love- One of the strongest choruses on this album.. possible ace anthem👍 Stay Hungry- Doesn’t do much for me Take me to the river- Pretty nondescript cover The big country- Classic Talking Heads list, just a bit dull This was middle of the road for me, as someone with a synth preference. Still 3/5

Pretty standard blues/rock album. 3/5 Fave tracks:Whole lotta love,Heartbreaker, Ramble on, bring it on home

We’ve only just begun- And its the album opener!👍 Love is surrender-Seems a bit of a drastic line to take Maybe its you- This is a catchy little ditty👍 Reason to believe- another sweet little track👍 Help- This is brought down by the Beatles being much better Close to you- a classic, so cute👍 Baby its you- I guess this is a cover staple, but this song is just too simple for me I’ll never fall in love again- This is cute if a bit on the nose Crescent Moon- I wish Richard wrote more songs on this, they’re really good👍 Mr Guder- This is just kids being little shits tbh. Its catchy and got some nice piano work I kept on loving you- I don’t believe this guy for a second Another song-Interesting closing track with an almost experimental instrumental section This is wholesome almost to the point of being infuriating, but just as Marge says ‘I just think its neat’ 3/5

Classic Christmas album

Listened to this album a fair bit, I think this is a good album but slightly overrated Fave tracks:Slow burn, Butterflies,Lonely Weekend, High Horse, Golden Hour, Rainbow 4/5

Quiet Life- groovy quite laidback track. Wish the vocals were a little more prominent 👍 Fall in love with me- lyrics a lot of nothing, but sufficiently atmospheric👍 Despair- boring piano track In vogue- this wasnt a standout at all Halloween- Bit more bombastic👍 All tomorrows parties- Feel there is a bit too much going on in the instrumental for what is essentially a folk track Alien- standard synthpop track The other side of life- bit of a dirge This was a mediocre new wave album 2/5

Quick nice Frank Sinatra album Fave tracks: The girl from ipanema, change partners, quiet nights of quiet stars 3/5

Fisherman’s blues- Nice lively track to start off 👍 We will not be lovers- The violin does so much work here, great melding of folk and rock 👍 Strange boat- Fairly unmemorable song World Party- didn’t really grab me Sweet thing- This is like a dual cover? Idk vocals feel a bit tryhard at times Jimmy Hickey’s waltz- Background music for dwarven pub or something And a bang on the ear- This is fairly lively but not compelling enough for such a lengthy song The songs from here are very folk focused, favourite was when ye go away Started off promising before diving headfirst into oldfashioned folk. 2/5

God this shit was boring 1/5 Will add to playlist Neptune City (unenthusiastically)

Classic for a reason Fave tracks: Smells like teen spirit, In bloom, Come as you are,lithium, drain you, lounge act, something in the way 5/5

Fave songs: Deep one perfect morning, Happy when it rains, down on me, about you Just a bit one note and monotone 2/5

Again this being post punk means i cannot identify genres, wouldve put this as prog rock. Solid songs if a little long at times. Fave songs: see no evil, venus, marquee moon, elevation, torn curtain 4/5

Better of Dead- intro of death penalty The N**** Ya Love to Hate- Very fun hook 👍 AmeriKKKa’s most wanted- didn’t work for me What They Hittin’ Foe?- very short track You Can’t Fade Me/ JD’s Gaffin’- very much of its time, interesting to listen to with a good beat, but v uncomfortable lyrics and flow is clunkly at times Once Upon a Time in the projects- damn not a great experience then👍 Turn Off the Radio- someone sounds a bit salty Endangered Species- Really hard hitting song 👍 A Gangsta’s Fairytale- I mean, I guess I appreciate the commitment to the bit? I’m Only Out for One Thang- …yeah no Get off my dick and tell yo bitch to come here- title longer than the song The Drive-By- another interlude, this time a drive by Rollin’ wit the Lench Mob- the chorus is a bit of a clusterfuck, and let’s just say we’ve heard this lyrical content before Who’s the Mack?- What’s with the moaning in the background? I like the storyline otherwise 👍 It’s a Man’s World- The hook is cool, like the exchange but I don’t think it achieves much for me. The Bomb- Another extended metaphor, this one is quite fun 👍 Good narratives, flow can get repetitive and the misogny is abundant. I’m gonna say it isn’t my favourite. 2/5

I Want You To Love Me- Could’ve done without the last part, but other than that pretty catchy 👍 Shameika- Funny how small moments can become defining moments in your life..👍 Fetch the bolt cutters- this is a bit too on the nose for me and isnt that sonically interesting. nice doggos tho Under the table- wish I could speak out a bit more 👍 Relay- I like this song a lot, but not really sure about the repeated line, i feel like it doesn’t mean much really Rack of his- I think the metaphor is really clever here, enjoyed this song overall 👍 Newspaper- I like the harmonies, but again a bit literal for me again and not a strong melody Ladies- A more chill song following the last one, a little meandering for me and i would say slightly condescending Heavy Balloon- So good, i love the vocals on this one 👍 Cosmonauts- One of the instantly catchier tracks 👍 For Her- Bit too chaotic for me Drumset- Quite repetitive, feels like a bit of throwaway On I Go- very percussion heavy, pretty good ending to the album 👍 I heard about the acclaim for this album back when it was released but never checked it out. It feels very 2020, but still holds up and I really appreciate it 5/5

Roundabout- I’m not all too familiar with the meme or the song, even though I guess its big? This is such a generic prog rock song I’m surprised it can even be this generic Hearing the rest of this, I’m just not taken with it. I guess it was influential.. ngl I don’t like prog rock that much bc it just tends to be a bunch of self satisfied white dudes performing drawn out songs with esoteric lyrics. also why do all prog rock frontmen have the same voice. Anyway I’m a bit tired and cranky so I’m gonna give this the benefit of the doubt so 2/5 Downloaded track: South side of the sky. Think a track about polar expeditions could be cool, and it intrigued me

Middle- call and response type Next few tracks: Born in ‘69, On A Rope, Young Livers decent enough👍 Drop out- meh Used- this track seemed pretty cheesy Ball Lightning- More of the same Fat Lip- some concept there👍 Heater Hands- this album continues to whelm Misbeaten- I feel like I would like this song if there was an attempt at lyrics Come See, come saw- could’ve been called comme ce comme ca ngl, but I enjoyed👍 Last two songs- same old same old This album was just mediocre for me 2/5

Rainy Day Women #12&35- Full of energy, really like this one 👍 Pledging my time- Catchy 👍 Visions of Johanna- Very interesting lyrics, with a good melody 👍 One of us must know- High intensity song, love the instrumental in the background 👍 I want you- Slightly generic, but probably one of the catchiest Bob songs I’ve heard 👍 Stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues again- I like the chorus, but a few too many extraneous verses Leopard skin pillbox hat- One of the less engaging Dylan tales Just like a woman- This works, sets scene well 👍 Temporary Achilles Absolutely Sweet Marie, 4th time around- 👍 Obviously Five Believers- quite generic bob song here Sad-eyed Lady of The Lowlands- this is where Bob loses me, just another level of meandering and plodding I liked this album for the most part, I think the first half is definitely stronger though. 4/5

Well arranged, beautiful folk songs. Favourite tracks: Time Has Told Me, River Man, Three Hours, Way To Blue, Saturday song 4/5

Pretty cool, with a wtf song in the middle

Not a big fan of prog rock, and this is no exception. Feels a bit muddled with the ‘characters’ at the beginning, and then atheist rock at the end. Some of the guitar parts were cool but otherwise meh 2/5 Fave tracks: Mother Goose, Up To Me, Slipstream

Black Sabbath- we love a self reference straight out the gate 👍 The Wizard- Like this one, again lyrics arent really up to much 👍 Behind the wall of sleep- Some good guitar work, otherwise just okay NIB- Again, great guitar work, but the melody is v generic Evil Woman- lol didn’t realise this was a cover. I still liked it 👍 Sleeping woman- ooh this is interesting, a lot of guitar work which is amazing 👍 Warning- This is fine, but a fair bit too long for my taste Wicked world- Heavy handed but still strong 👍 I liked this well enough, especially for being a forerunner to a genre it still holds up 4/5

Fave tracks: Bye bye love, you don’t know much, half as much, just a little lovin’, born to lose, hey, good lookin very well put together, but many tracks kinda blend together 3/5

The view from the afternoon- oh this is really good actually, clever lyricism and great rock sound 👍 I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor- A british staple 👍 Fake tales of San Francisco- some cute lyrics here, but I’m not really a fan of chorus/outro repetition Dancing Shoes- The riff here is so catchy, and amazing instrumental break.. love 👍 You Probably couldn’t see for the lights but you were staring straight at me- just like the title, lyrics are a bit too wordy Still Take You Home- some good old misogyny Riot Van- A slower song, the filter on the vocals is a bit more distracting here. Feels like it doesn’t have enough substance to be a full song Red Light Indicates Doors are Secured- love the drunk storytelling nature of this 👍 Mardy Bum- I’m leaning towards the gfs side :) 👍 Perhaps Vampires Is a Bit Strong But..-Instrumental Break build up is cool, but babes you’re successful calm down When The Sun Goes Down- The cynicism in the lyrics is very good, chorus is a bit weak but still a good song 👍 From the Ritz to the rubble- I love the chorus on this one 👍 A Certain Romance- This track is one of the dullest on the album for me Very solid debut with clever lyrics and great guitars 4/5

Tears of rage- bit slow and plodding for me, but I like lyrical themes To Kingdom Come- Bit hokey pokey In a station- I think the lyrics are a bit tryhard at times but I like this overall 👍 Caledonia Mission- I really like this track, very upbeat 👍 The Weight- I guess this is the famous track on this record? Its fine We Can Talk- Feels like a poor mans we can work it out Long Black Veil- Love a good murder ballad 👍 Chest Fever- like the organ feature 👍 Lonesome Suzie- god this is a bit of a dirge This Wheels On Fire- I think I would like this better if Bob Dylan was singing it lol I Shall Be Released- good ending track 👍 I liked this fine enough, and I can see the influence (in things like Derek and the Dominoes etc), but it just isn’t quite my thing personally. 3/5

We Don’t Care- Catchy and poignant 👍 All Falls Down- Another catchy hook, with lyrics about consumerism 👍 I’ll Fly Away- pretty rendition of a hymn leading into next track Spaceship- I really like the chorus, GLCs verse lacks for me a bit 👍 Jesus Walks- This is a powerful track, if feeling a bit put on at times Never Let Me Down- Kanyes verse is amazing, Jay Z flexing as usual 👍 Get Em’ High- meh The New Workout Plan- This is good, but not something I would want to listen to a lot, and its defo v dated Slow Jamz- a nice slower track, with some v accomplished rapping 👍 Breathe In, Breathe Out- this is fine, nothing special School Spirit- Another catchy track, also the censoring is pretty funny 👍 Two Words- Again accomplished but feels a bit dated Through the wire- v interesting story I didn’t know about 👍 Family Business- Cool sampling, evocative stories but also annoying children voices lol Last Call- Pretty self indulgent but interesting Ambitious and accomplished album, 5/5

Fave songs: Promised you a miracle, big sleep, new gold dream, hunter and the hunted pretty mediocre synthpop 2/5

Slow night,so long-like giutar, gonna ignore lyrics👍 king of the rodeo- seems like the chorus has too many lyrics in it and bad outro Taper jean girl- another quite oof song lol Pistol of fire- cool guitar solo, good transition, bad lyrics again👍 milk- this is just straight up bad, stripped down doesnt work here The bucket- meh, giving adcore Soft- thanks for the honesty i guess👍 Razz- what is with all these songs ragging on your brother 👍 day old blues- a snooze and also borderline yodelling lol four kicks- riff is fine, vocals are getting annoying velvet snow- quite repetitive and generic Rememo- bit more bluesy, interesting 👍 Where nobody knows-this is fine👍 Pretty mediocre soft rock 2/5

Nebraska- Pretty haunting first person narrative of an unrepentant spree killer Atlantic City- Great tune with a engaging narrative throughout 👍 Mansion on the hill- overly simplistic Johnny 99- Classic murder ballad 👍 Highway Patrolman- I like lyrics, musically not very interesting State Trooper- Nice ominous atmosphere, weird cutoff at the end 👍 Used Cars- Very nice working class vignette 👍 Open All Night- finally an upbeat song, but quite generic lol, still enjoy 👍 My Fathers house- Deeply personal, just not for me Reason to believe- bit rambling but still good 👍 Engaging, visceral album 4/5

Fave tracks:Living Again, I’ll be around, My kind of people, Evening News, Let’s Stay Together, Die Trying I liked the more melodic tracks, that’s a personal preference. Slightly too many tracks. 3/5

album notes got deleted >:( but great atmosphere created 5/5

Stone cold classic 5/5

Fave tracks: Exhuming McCarthy, Disturbance at the heron house, It’s the end of the world, the one i love, fireplace, king of birds I enjoyed this album but wasn’t wowed 3/5

Fave tracks: Instant Hit, So Tough, FM, Ping pong affair, typical girls, adventure close to home This is v rough around the edges but in an endearing way lol 3/5

A collection of songs 2/5

Fave tracks: Route 66, I Just Want To Make Love To You, Mona, Little By Little, Carol Competent first album, though mostly covers 3/5

The beginnings of greatness 4/5

Fave Tracks: Dig Me Out, One More Hour, The Drama You’ve Been Craving, Heart Factory, Little Babies, Not What You Want, Things You Say, Jenny WOMEN! WHO! ROCK! 4/5

SF Sorrow is born-quite annoying chorus effect, this is fine if a little overblown Bracelets of Fingers- Ahh, the old panning effects, but this is fine overall, I like the refrain 👍 She says good morning- good 4 u i guess Private Sorrow- this was fine, whatever Balloon Burning- finally a little energy, at least in the guitars 👍 Death- decently atmospheric.. surely this is quite early on in the album tho lol 👍 Baron Saturday- kinda hate everything about this The Journey- the set up to a better song next I See You- guitar shines more on this one and vocal effect is something? Well Of Destiny- doesn’t really count as a song init Old Man Going- 👍 Loneliest person i was never gonna like this lol 2/5

I enjoyed this, didn’t love it. Funnily enough, i already have a version of the last song downloaded from this project lol. 3/5

Fave tracks: Kizza me, Big Black Car, Femme Fatale, O Dana, Kangaroo, Stroke It Noel, For You, You Can’t Have Me, Til The End of The Day Some good stuff, most of it alright 3/5

Fave songs: Search and destroy, Gimme Danger, Penetration, I need sonebody, shake appeal

Fave tracks: El Harba Wine, E’Dir E’Sseba, raba raba,derwich tourbeur ,leili Just not my thing at all 2/5

If I Were Going- Already sounds like the most 90s album ever 👍 Gentlemen- Vocals aren’t doing much for me here, just feels a bit put on Be Sweet- the way this is quite charming except the first part LOL 👍 Debonair- this is whatever, my guy seems quite unhinged When We Two Parted- prefer the Byron poem Fountain and Fairfax- I do like instrumental, wish this guy would stop singing tho 👍 What Jail Is Like- this song just kinda sucks My Curse- yay a woman 👍 Now you Know- boring and slightly disgusting metaphor I Keep Coming Back- least convincing take me back song ever?? Brother Woodrow/Closing Prayer- inspiration study type music Whew we got through it in one go 2/5

WOOOWOOW 1/5

Some interesting musical motifs, but a bit juvenile for me 2/5

Didnt lie- it was cool 4/5

Pleasant instrumental album

I think this album pretty flawlessly deals with not blunt but still quite indicative political lyrics, as well as having fun melodies and great guitar playing. 5/5

This is really of its time, but is full of bops with a few questionable songs (looking at you Next Generation). Kinda hate the record scratch production but I will give this the benefit of the doubt for the era!! 4/5

Me and electronica just dont get on, and thats fine 2/5

This is very technically proficient, the production is top notch. Probably would need a few more listens 4/5

I didn’t have a great day today and that may be because this album got generated 1/5

So this is a sweet little record, with a few GREAT tracks on it, but its like the opposite of visionary. Struggling to see how this made the list, despite my personal enjoyment of it 3/5

Heard so many good things about this album, after listening to it I had to think, Is This It? 3/5

As others have said, a baffling inclusion on the list. Fine enough, if a little sleepy

I enjoyed this for what it was, not exactly my genre though. 3/5

There sure are a lot of redeeming qualities to this record, but god on the whole this was a slog. Lyrics uniformly pretty bad, which i just can’t get over, and this is a long album, defo could be half the length and that would help a lot!! 1/5

endlessly funky, with great beats and always tongue in cheek 4/5

Nice, easy to listen to soul record, but didnt excite me that much Fave tracks: lets stay together,so youre leaving, ive never found a girl, how can you mend a broken heart 3/5

As someone completely ignorant and ambivalent to the topic of music history, I cant score this on how influential it was. Just ok for me, bit too samey for me to care that much Fave tracks: personality crisis, vietnamese baby, lonely planet boy, subway train, private world 3/5

E pro- Catchy riff, not sure if the lyrics were good as they kinda get drowned out 👍 Qué Onda Guero- comical observations, its fine, production feels a bit overdone at points Girl- pov ur a serial killer missing - fairly monotonous Black Tambourine- 👍 Earthquake weather- wish the vocals were a bit more emotive but i did like this track 👍 Hell Yes- we really have gone to just listing as our lyrics, I just find this quite annoying Broken Drum- I love heavy instrumentation matching the vocal line 👍 Scarecrow- seems like filler Go It Alone Farewell Ride - And yet this album keeps on going! (I do like this tho)👍 Other songsare more of the same 2/5

The Wall Street Shuffle- Ok, on the whole I liked this I guess 👍 The Worst Band In The World- They said it, not me! Hotel- Me when I’m being abducted by aliens and then I have to perform a Beach Boys tribute act so they don’t kill me Old Wild Men- I like the instrumental, the vocals are a bit TOO earnest Clockwork Creep- this must be what adhd feels like 👍 Silly Love- just embrace that maximalism 👍 I have to applaud the audacity, but still, maybe take a couple things out next time 2/5

brain off 3/5

it sounds very competent.. but why 2/5

I think I’m just not a Bowie girlie because the album didn’t wow me. Some iconic singles but the rest of the album was just ok for me 3/5

Groovy, solid classic rock 4/5

Pleasantly surprised how much I liked this, very catchy tunes! Bit overlong but still a 4/5

Too long for me, and didn’t grip me 2/5

I enjoyed listening to this album, even if it hasnt aged well if some parts (the over reliance on autotuning being my main gripe). Some really good bars in songs that don’t quite fit together for me. Personally, I enjoy the sample driven songs more, so bound 2 was one of my favourites. Overall a mixed bag so 3/5

a fun little romp 4/5

This album is too long for something that feels like its treading water 2/5

I just found this a bit boring to be honest 2/5

Decent live album, but the live part is the most interesting thing about this as the songs are standards 3/5

Solid album full of bops but missing an oomph to get 5 stars 4/5

pretty meh psych folk album 2/5

again fine.. nothing to write home about 2/5

Pretty lively album, if not really my style 3/5

very meh

Some really great tracks in here but a lot of twee, cloying stuff as well. 2/5

its an amazing album 5/5

I don’t really know the complicated backstory for this project but I do know I didn’t particularly like it or find it interesting! 2/5

Choosing between a 2-3 for this one, starts off really strong before descending into dullness. also ive already listened to the superior depeche mode album so … 3/5

very good and compelling covers. 4/5

pretty dull album but Jump is a bop 2/5

my springsteen bias shining through 4/5

was expecting more than this as i liked the other doors album much more and the cover goes hard. some good tracks… some not so good. 3/5

obviously the singles are classics but this was middle of the road for me 3/5

Very solid album with a lot of great tracks but man am i glad that there aren’t pointless interludes on albums anymore 4/5

One of the most important albums ever, incredibly powerful but just not personally something I would choose to listen to all the way through again. 4/5
