Bro this shit is my absolute jam. Like I'm not a big bluesy guy but mix it with the punk shit I rock alot and damn it sounds nice. Saved the whole album for relistens. I love it 5*
Certified bangers on here. Always loved me some daft punk. My only real issue is this is damn near a 90 minute record. Some trimming might have helped the flow but if this is 100% your jam it's good for you. More like 80% my jam 3*
Rough and tumble type classic rock. Great start, great end. Less captivating in the middle. Still a solid album
Albums a classic in the zietgiest, not sure if it's a classic to me. Starts strong with hotel California which speaks for itself. Then I forgot how awesome life in the fast lane is, saved for later. Then we get out of the fast lane for much of the rest of the album. Slow ballads pretty much from here on out. They may be good or even great ballads but they are not my style. It's been a long night and I don't "fucking hate the eagles man", but I don't see myself coming back to this hotel anytime soon.
This record rules. It has a fun groove from end to end. The electronics and synths feel like a revolution for the time, I wasn't there at the time but it feels so new. Some classic songs make an appearance that I very much enjoy and some deeper cuts kick ass. There is a marimba on this album. Wild. Love it, will come back for more.
Badass old-school flow and beats. Not a lyrics guy. Hard to follow but parts I caught were good. Good to know more than mass appeal. Give it 3.5 if I could. Love the beat on meaning of the name
This is a funny album for me. Back when it came out I remember the sentiment was this was the end for Taylor. She went pop and people weren't happy. But I've always liked the singles and radio tracks. This album hit at a spot in my life where it was ever present and I liked that. I was on a road trip blasting shake it off barreling down the highway and singing along. At the time idk of I listened to much more than metal. Out of the woods is the only real dud in the track list. That one gets an instant skip from now on but everything else is wonderful. I like singer songwriter Taylor more but pop Taylor has a place in my heart
Fine but not interesting at all. Hard to handle has real words in it? Wild
Middle school days. This album rules. It's the best Linkin Park. It's been memed to death but that just shows its massive appeal to even newer generations. The b sides also kick ass. Meteora also is good but I'll take hybrid any day. This may be the quintessential rap rock album. Thanks boys
I like this album. It's a very soiled output from the heads. I do happen to be a remain in light junkie though. What an end to this album. Take me to the river brings back billy bass memories. And big country is just so good. Maybe when I'm in a head type mood I'll throw this one on to mix it up a bit.
Come on man. This album blows. I had this whole thing typed out and thought I'd soften up a bit but no. I don't like the vocal runs that litter every inch of the track list. She just cant stop with these God damn scales. And her voice sometimes has this little boy quality that I loathe. I will never come back to this. I do have a never ending hatred for her Christmas bullshit but maybe that was just cause that holiday sucks. No it's her 100%. Hate it. Congrats Mariah you get to be my 1st one star.
This one is pretty good. I think starting off with novocaine for the soul is nice. Sets up what the hell I'm gonna listen to cause with this site you never really know what your gonna get. I liked Susan's house but I was so focused on where else I've heard that sample that I don't know how much I paid attention to it. And oooo baby when beautiful monster came on I was screaming "SHREKKKKK SHREKKKK" over and over again. Guest list may be my favorite song on here. Overall a pretty solid album. Saving a few tracks for later listens
Hmmm I knew beck had this in him but an entire album? Was not expecting that. It's a nice listen. I'm not blown away or anything. It was good background noise. I like the wilder beck to come. Give me some devils haircut, and looser over this.
This one is just fun. Bass led, funky as hell, and just good. Thundercat may be the biggest nerd I've heard in this lame. Maybe making him less cool on a wider scale but I'd chill with him lol. Black nerd to rival ghost dog. Saving for later for sure
Classic. I love the flow and delivery on this. Just smacks u in the ass. Aldo I thought Flav was just a hype man but he spits some bars too. Sick. Bring the noise with anthrax is so insane to me. Turned out great. It's like when run dmc dropped a track with Aerosmith but 100000% cooler.
Excuse me? Today? The queen is dead?
Had on shuffle, didn't mean to. Lost interest. Decent stuff but beep boops don't hold my attention all that well
Hard album to find cause I guess it's not on any streaming but thanks to illegal YouTube uploads I got it. This album is so very good. It feels like it's like a crowd of 10 or 15 people just sitting around listening to this musical traveler. He's got songs from all over and he's just the voice passing them on. Excellent all around
Pretty forgettable. Like it's fine but I'll never put it on again. I can't think of anything else but Jackson tucker and his sweatpants though
Pretty forgettable. Like it's fine but I'll never put it on again. I can't think of anything else but Jackson tucker and his sweatpants though. Woulda been a 1 but there are some premium synth tones on a few songs
This was a fun one. I like the all women vocals. Just too much fun. It's hard to rate. Is it a low 4 star or a high 3. I enjoyed it either way
This was pretty good. I was a bit disappointed though. This 70s country singer thing is usually my type but not so much this. I did like it though
Prince feels like he's in 99 on this one. Decades above and beyond his competition. Funky as fuck and fun. There is a reason Prince is goated. The mfer just says all the ny critics just love him. Ballsy as a new artist. But like draining threes against Charley Murphy this is a swish
OK so I'm dumb. For the longest time I thought kraftwerk was that shitty joke from the eric Andre show. But that's kraft punk. I'm smart. But this album is amazing. It's so ahead of its time it isn't even funny. I will save this one for now and check out the whole kraftwerk catalog.
It's Dylan. What else is there to say?
This was OK. Nothing to special in my opinion. I was interested was interested in the little talky bits that intro and outro songs more than the songs themselves. I'd like his movie scores in that context probably.
3 titans of their respective genres. What a mix. Maybe too slow for my taste at times but great nonetheless
I thought this would put me in a gyrocopic sex mood but not really honestly a little underwhelming. Maybe it needs another listen but not up to the fuck snuff.
Classic. But toxicity is better sorry. Still love rocking like a middle schooler
Very nice. I like this better than most clapton solo junk. Solid
This one is OK. It sounds ahead of its time but if u put them in time with those later 90s alt rockers it sounds kinda generic. Some good grooves but idk if that saves it.
Nice and smooth. Not super hype on it but it's nice enough. That opener is such an absolute riot I have to bump it up a star
Dat kewl m8
Too long. I gave up after 17 tracks. Made it longer than I thought I would but not particularly memorable for me. It's fine enough music just not for me I guess
This had lots of good elements and some kinda eh ones. Scooby snacks was a gem to find. I like finding something I know sometimes. Good beats when they aren't too honky and even those are interesting at least. I love the keys all over this though. Some remind me of the doors who I love and some have a persona 5 thing. Ik jazzy music does not equal p5 but still. It brings me back to a really good time in life. High 3 star but I'll round up this time. Quality
On so I'm for sure not in the majority with this one but damn I don't get Beyonce. She has a nice voice but nothing else has any kind of appeal for me. It's just too popcorn nothingness. The music's good she's good but as a whole it's so unmemorable. I skipped the bonus material but the og album had nothing I could recall and I finished 2 minutes ago. It's not bad but I won't hit up the queen bee unless she has another one on here. Bye Felicia 2*
Now this one was good. Chill and beautiful I saved multiple songs and the album as a whole. That's says alot. I'll be happy to hear these songs popping up on shuffle. I've always heard I should try these guys but never got around to it. Glad this made me. Worth it all around. I love her voice. 4*

Amazing riffs but horrendous vocals. It's classic but damn do I hate it. 2*
This is an all timer. My aunt showed me this when I was young and I've never forgotten it. I think I like most of the songs here rather than their studio versions. Those get old these do not. Idk if I've given a 5 star yet but this is one for sure. 5*
It's nice. I like Leonard's voice. My issues are my own. As a prolific non lyrics guy this is missing a huge piece. It's all on me obviously. With songs this skeletal its hard when that peice isn't my cup of tea. Good stuff spock, who I may have thought this man was as a child lol. 3*
Another one. Same thoughts as maiden. Great riffs but shit singer. Amd I like off beat singers. People who aren't the norm is my jam but no Thanks. Oldschoolers you hit it but not for me 2*
Funky goodness but maybe a bit too primitive for my tastes. I would have loved it had I known nothing of that scene but knowing what comes later kinda takes away from the accomplishment this is. I'll rate it a hit higher than because of that. 3*
I'm going in with a bad taste in my mouth cause I truely hate Steven Tyler's voice. Just loathe it. I was truly hoping to find some enjoyment in the instrumentals but even in that front Aerosmith totally drops thr ball. Everything is so simple and that hurts this record. Mixed with the overproduction it's just a recipe for some of the worst music I've heard in a while. Even with some all time classics like sweet emotion, and walk this way I still have zero interest in ever revisiting anything off this record. I hate it 1*
I wad hoping for a but more out of this one. I wanted some Spanish vocals to be more of thw focus. It's alright though. Repetitive but nit bad sonicly.i liked it and saved a song so there's that 2.5* if I could but I'll probably have to give it a 2* sadly
I'm not super well versed in the article mokneys catalog but with ny limited knowledge I would say this is just as catchy and nice as anything that hit the charts. But the other edge to that is it does not feel like they have grown or evolved at all either. Amd that bothers me. In 20 years there should be some decent change. Not saying you have to leave yr old fans behind but take them on a journey with you. More meta things aside I can't deny its a good listen. 3*
Come on now. I gotta do the white album? It's such an important album for music as a whole. Like damn. It's got history. It's got bops. It's infinitely interesting. What else would anyone want? And it's not cause I'm "supposed" to like it. The Beatles in general have always been a part of my life. It's some of the first music I remember hearing and loving. Thanks family for that one. It's a 5 easy. It's a 5 for sure
OK so I was worried it would be a bit too much yoko. She's interesting but her whelps and screeches aren't all that pleasing. But this was nice. It pales in comparison to the white album i had last night but still very good. Nothing too crazy but solid little tunes all over this thing. Minimal and not too over produced. Just a nice singer songwriter record. It also has an atmos mastering so I listened to that which is nice. Not too many atmos versions of anything out there. A nice and enjoyable 3*
Very interesting. I was not expecting this at all. Nice multi phased compositions. Always had Mr on my toes. It made me feel very anxious and on the verge of fear on my very dark nighttime walk. But also very happy at points. Wide range on this one. But I liked it 3*
Bro this shit is my absolute jam. Like I'm not a big bluesy guy but mix it with the punk shit I rock alot and damn it sounds nice. Saved the whole album for relistens. I love it 5*
Whoa Nelly! Moorhead rules. 12 tracks that just blow by. Shits fast and rocks. There isn't much more to ask for. Riffs are there. Lemmys vocals are rough but damn they fit so nice. 4*
Dancing the night away. At least half. The dancier the tracks are the better they are. The more indie/rocky they are the less interesting they are. Give me a thumping backbeat and those sick falsetto vocals amd I'm very happy. The normal singing is less cool by far. Those tracks feel pretty standard. Some great bass grooves as well. I'd give a 3.5 if I could but too much is middling to round up here 3*
Certified bangers on here. Always loved me some daft punk. My only real issue is this is damn near a 90 minute record. Some trimming might have helped the flow but if this is 100% your jam it's good for you. More like 80% my jam 3*
With no disrespect, how was this popular? It's so old school. Who was asking for lunge music in the early 00s? It blows my mind. But I love it. I never thought this would be something I'd ever list3n to but damn I'm glad I did. I saved the album and like 6 tracks. What a gem. I know Amy as a jok3 from shitty spoof movies of the 00s. Wild. This is 4*
So this one is a bit off for me. I like it but I'm I think I might like Trans- Europe Express more. This is Trim. It's has nothing more than you need but I might need just a touch more. Like 1 more song. Very classic very kraft. Some good vocals here and there. Good beep. Good boop. 3*
This just isn't my style. It's good don't get me wrong. That mallet increment is honestly one of th3 best sounding I've 3ver heard. With a mix of the soft gentle acoustic guitar it's heavenly. But it does not connect with me personally. I'd love to give it a middle of the road 2.5 vut I have to round down to a 2*
I'm a bit biased here with pretty much anything punk. This is great. I love how classic it sounds yet how far ahead at the same time. I saved a bunch of tracks and the whole album. Lots of variety and it blazes past. I love this shit

After a long hiatus back to these albums. This was the last recommendation a year or more ago when I stopped looking at this site. And it was a pretty nice welcome. I liked what they were putting down. But at the same time it wasn't mind blowing or reality altering. Just a solid listen. Only 1 save for later with "Fall at Your Feet". And I don't even love ballads vmbut this one is good. Thanks 1001 for the rec, glad to be back. 3/5 ☆s
So this isn't my speed. But it's good. The arrangements are all nice and they really use every ounce of the vocal ability that everyone in the group has. That being said it's too one note. If you are someone who is endlessly fascinated with the human voice this will be dense material. For me though, it's too much of one thing no matter how good it technically is. Not bad but no saves and I'll probably never hear this again in my life.
50 is early to mid 2000s in my mind. And get rich is 50. It's damn good. The beats couldn't be more classic. But it's not my favorite. I like it but don't love. It's hard with a straight 5 stars. It's better than a 3 but it's not a 4 either. Gotta go 3 sadly. Apologies to the whole G-Unit
This was a surprise. Thought I was getting some black sludge metal music with this but presently surprised to be exactly what I'm into. This album is like a stop gap between punk and new wave. It's sick. Couple of nice little savey saves and an album that will stick in rotation for a good while here. I like
Not really my style but pretty good. I can't deny the flute. Makes me think jazz flute in anchorman. Some bops and bangs. Good wholesome missionary classic rock.
Bop and a half. Tons of classics and Mrs. Lauren kills it. I didn't know dick about wyclef but I sure as shit am gonna find out. It's just that facial song from thugger. But good stuff. For sure gonna re listen for a whole while here
This is not me. It's my mom. And nothing against her musical taste but I've had quite enough soft rock/easy listening/ whatever it is is not for me. These songs could all be the 2nd song played over the credits of a film that was a solid 3/10. No thank you. Glad it's out there but it didn't land in this camp
This is a weird one. There are some things I liked. And specific things that bug me. The biggest is whoever produced this made the layered vocals the uhh double vocals are so unbelievably distracting. Idk what it is but none of those sections with aggressive layered vocals are done in a way like how everyone else does it. It sounds just bad alot of the times. The songwriting is nice and wild world is a banger but not too into it but not 100% against it
As a former "I listen to all music....except country" type person this is the jam. It's exactly the kind of country I like. It does get a bit too preachy at times. Maybe not preachy but the rely on God thing isn't my thing so it's just a bit awkward. But the songs man. There are some good old fashioned honky tonk badonkadonk type guitar shit on there. That one solo where he ends ok harmonics on home of the blues is insane. The oompa oompa polka type Hispanic music I don't know the name of has some good acornian and whatever else they use. I don't think there are actually any horns on the album but my brain fills them in automatically...weird. but good. I like
This is a tough one. I was not in the best headspace for this at the moment. Sleepless nights glaze you over some. But I liked what I heard. I'm also born in 94 so toy story has told me I must like randy Newman more than anyone else. So I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. It's good. Also that song from the opening of major league is here too. And as a wisonsinite loosing our beloved Bob uecker it was a trip. I like this. But I need to re listen for sure.
This brings me back to middle school. Man... some of these songs were on guitar hero so they were all I wanted at 13 or whatever. My tastes are not the same but I can help liking it even if it's 95% nostalgia. It's gotta get 3 just cause.
Damn, I'm gonna feel kinda bad for this one. Its just boring to me. There isn't too many musical ideas that stand out in any way. It's just a few little guitar embellishments or even a little bass lick but it just ends there for me. Nothing wrong with the vocals but again there isn't enough interesting in the way he delivers his lyrics. I'll have to figure out what to give it. A one is kinda harsh but a 2 is almost giving it too much credit. Man.... Its not unlistenable it's just too blah nothing for me. Jawbone is alright. but alright isn't too high a bar to set. 2*
My parents are the Beatles generation. They passed it on. I've been a Beatles fan as long as I've been alive, not that long, but still. It's always been Lennon, Harrison, McCartney, and sorry Ringo. But in recent years things have shifted. John lost his spot. But enough about anything but the album. It's very nice with a handful of amazing songs. No yoko being too much. Just simple little songs. Not the best but pretty good.
The Staten island slaughters. A stone cold classic. That midsection of the record is just one of the greatest hip hop songs of all time just back to back to back ect. It's wild. The production is so great. Every beat is the quintessential ny 90s sound. It's insane. Then just a handful of the best to ever do it just laying bar after bar down like it ain't nothing. I just can't believe it.
Well what a coincidence, I just got imagine 2 days ago and I liked it hut I brought this up cause I like it more. And I sure do like it more. Why didn't the Beatles use more of geroges songs? They are sooo good. I saved damn near every track on the first disc. And half on the 2nd. And I like the 3rd. It's all jams but jams are nice. Such a great writer and his steel guitar sound is nice. Some country vibes on some songs but that's cause it's the only place people use it anymore. I like everything about it. I get why some people wouldn't and that's fine but it feels like it was made for me.
I did not not see this one coming. Everyone knows kick our the jams from some movie or TV though I can place which one. It's loud it's wild it's in your face. It's kick ass and doesn't give a shit about much else beyond that. I'm a big punk guy so seeing it's first little baby steps or at least the first moments of existence. Cool cool cool love it
I had a decent time with fragile. It's lo5s of great musical ideas but sometimes it's just too much changing to get in the real grove. It's progressive and I do like progressive stuff it's just not 100% my thing. I will say roundabout may be one of the most perfect songs ever written so u got that yes. Good damn job. Joo reference or whatever
Oo the specials. Just s nice listen. I used to be big into ska, 3rd wave, but I think wayyyy back Pandora used to throw on some specials too. I've never listened to this one. Was more into the 1st album tbh. More is a good time though. Not saving a bunch of songs but I'll throw the whole album on again for sure. Some little dub electronics beeping and boopin like clu clu land or some shit. I enjoy
Hey it's the stranger things song. That show is sooook epic. Nahhhh I'm being a Lil silly. Running up that hill is great though. I didn't save any of the tracks other than that one but I already had it saved. Sound like I didn't like it huh? But no I did like it alot. But I don't think saving single songs does it any favors. It's a whole peice. I got sure will listen to the whole record multiple times. Very good.
This sadly didn't really connect with me. There isn't anything wrong with it. I enjoy how dynamic and ever changing these songs are. They flow nice. Laura has a beautiful voice that reminds me alot of Laura marling who i like quite a bit. I can't explain it but it just didn't hit. It is very far from bad though.
Maybe if I was British I would enjoy this more. Just nothing. Give me song 2 over and over again please. I should listen to blur
What absolute variety. This has so many moving parts. Bunch of rappers in the group to begin with and a decent crop of features too. Every beat is fire. Idk this is way better than expected
I'm not a lyrics guy so you could theoretically make a song that's catchy enough about assaulting my mother and I would be none the wiser. But when u put spoken word sections about being one of the worst people I've heard about in a minute it's hard to miss. This lady sucks dude. I understand hurt people hurt people but Jesus she just blows. At least it's honest but I really do not like her. Musically it's fine, maybe even good at times. I like r&b as much as the next guy, not my everyday listen type shit but I like summer walker. She's a good singer technically, even if she has a lower register than I find all that appealing, she can go on runs with the best of them. I was excited to see what more modern stuff this 1001 thing would give me but if it's like this I'll temper my expectations a bit next time
Just a solid singer songwriter record. Nothing too crazy but I enjoyed my time with central reservation got a couple of saved tracks. Nice and simple
I'm not very well versed I'm this goth rock thing but I might have to be. This was killer. Feels very ahead of it's time until some synths come in but it all adds to the charm. This is so solid. Give me the cure next I guess. Saved a few songs and will for sure spin the whole record again. I really liked the corrosion but it's 9 minutes long. Otherwise that would have been another save. I just want to do peanuts dances to this in all the black clothes I own
I cannot be objective about this one. This was a very important album for me. It was the ahha moment where the light bulb blinks on the first time over your head. It's like seeing a slight of hand magic trick when the magican pulls out that queen of Hearts from a moment ago. When I was younger I hated 2 things, country and pop. And this was the opening of a whole new world for me. Pop music is wonderful In it's own little way. It's beauty in simplicity. I love this album. It has moments of riding high on love and companionship and low moments where you just curl up and wait for it all to pass. And it's a "dumb" pop album. I love every second of it. Not perfect but perfectly imperfect. This is one of the good ones.
I'm a gan of the talking heads but nit too sure who brian eno is, in my head he makes movie soundtracks. After a quick search he seems like an interesting guy. But I don't like his music. I just need some more structure here. There are great grooves and little ideas that sound very heads but they sit in the amorphous blob of ambient nothing. It's just not what I'm looking for I guess. I just need more than what is here. Maybe that's a me problem but it gets a lower score than I'd like to give it because of that
This is music to have in the background while your in the tropics in a cabana chilling with a good book. Away from everyone but still close enough to observe all the party and fun going on but not be bothered by it. Pretty specific but that's what I got. Just good music and good vibes. Not 100% my thing but enjoyable non the less
This reminds me so much of Blackstar by bowie. The problem is I've had a bowie connection as long as I can remember but I just don't have that with Cohen. I've got one of his albums before but it also didn't connect with me. This isn't bad but for obvious reasons the singing isn't really that pleasant but it does get the point across. As a goodbye to all those who have been there forever this must be wonderful but I have not been here for it.
For one of the greatest rock bands of all time they sure like to play the blues. I've always heard that they and alot of other bands from the era juts stole the blues and I finally get it. It's nothing but blues. There is track that I'm assuming zz top took. There is another track where mick jagger sounds like he's attempting to do Dylan. What a wild time where everything just flowed into and out of everything else. I'm sure today isn't any different but I don't have 50 years of progress to see it at the moment. Good nice album though. Nothing too crazy but it's solid
Another classic. My dad gave me this on tape when I got my first car. It means alot to me that's for sure. It's full of top tier west coast production from greats. In my mind they wrote the book on west coast sound. Great bars on great bars from the whole crew. It's great that ice cube and Dre became pop culture icons. I wish the same could have been said for Ren yella prince and especially E. I'm sure they all did well enough but damn is nwa packed with some greats. Love it. Simple
Yikes I'm not into this. 20 minute 1st song? That's too much. I've for sure listened to little punk rock albums that are shorter than this damn song. Its kinda the epitome of things I dislike. And that's kinda it. I will give it some props for being very dynamic. The songs flow and change and evolve constantly. I thought that would be enough but it wasn't. It's better than most in this genre but it's still not enough for me
Decent time to be had here. I've never really listened to Ray Charles and I'm glad I have. The sound to my ears is relatively standard for at least what I think this era sounded like. But it's solid. Some more bumping tracks and some slow sad ones. There really is alot here. I saved a few songs but only a small percentage of the bunch. But overall good
Nothing can be said that hasn't already been said. It's the Beatles. They invented the modern framework everyone else exists in. And I love it. I do prefer Abby road and especially the white album but this is still nothing but all time classics
Very happy here. I've heard the radio Neil young plenty over the years and I never really got it. But now I do. I love his voice. It's very unique and they way it's layered is perfect. I got half th album saved. So much good stuff. A couple hit hits but some great more b side type stuff. It's very simple but honestly the sonics of his voice are plenty great for me
I was expecting more out of this one. Maybe that's just too high of expectations or just the advancement and evolution of music as time goes on, but either way it happened. I did get some saved tracks. It's just nice though. The way the 3 guys all work together and harmonize is top notch. But it's in a very simple framework. And I'm a bit hung up on that point. Still a good album but I was expecting to love it. It's a me problem for sure but I gotta give it what I gotta give it
I wish I understood percussion more than I do now. It would ave helped here. Mostly just come banging around with some chanting vocals that's do get repatatve for me. But not bad. Just not something I'll be spinning again and again
Just very cool. I was a bit skeptical in the first track or 2 but damn I was worried about nothing. Geat songs.
Ok so I might be being too harsh with this one and I wanna lead with that. Nothing too enjoyable here. Just not my kinda thing. Big band idk whatever kinda club music from casablanca. It has a couple of weird things in random places that make it seem slightly tongue in cheek. I may be very dumb and I wouldn't blame u for thinking that but I didn't enjoy it. It's a one I think. Or maybe I should have given other stuff a one recently and I'm picking in this one but I'm rolling with it.
I'm not sure how to rate this one. It has alot of the dance and electronic tropes I don't like like the repetition and not having lyrics but this does these things but in a way I don't fond offensive. I'm really really not sure what to do with this. I'm Going to give it a tentative 3. I need to listen to this a bunch more times before I truly know what's up. Maybe it's the best thing I've ever listened to or the worst I'm not sure
Strange one. It feels way ahead of it's time but I don't think that makes it good. It just feels like a nothing who cares album from 2005 instead of 1985. It's kinda interesting but I won't be returning
I just had an earlier Neil young and this current one had me a bit worried to be honest. The first half is very stripped back. And i wasn't down for this direction. It's fine. Not bad but also not what I was looking for either. The second half picks up what I want from a Noel young project. I like the multi track vocals and a little bit more rocking oomph. But I did enjoy my time with this once it got rolling
Never been a skynrd kinda guy but this was decent. It had some good tracks and freebird. It's freebird. It's the song u picked in guitar hero when u learned that was supposed to be ur last song so pioc one that's 73 minutes long. Good times
Yikes
Another not sure. I liked it generally but I'm not sure if it has staying power in my life or not yet.
Choo choo now leaving the station of idk yet type reviews. This is alot. And I enjoyed it. But I'm pretty sure ill enjoy this much much much muuuuuccchhhh more in a few more listens.
Lmfao ok here we go. I do not like this. But it's not nearly as bad as people make it out to be. It's not good nor my thing at all but it's fine. Like it's not unlistenable or anything but I do not want to listen to it. It's all the same. It's big and epic of that's what u like but I do not. This is fine
A little off to me. I thought this was going to be perfectly made for me. It looked all old-school psychedelic. It kinda is but not to the degree I was expecting. Still good don't get me wrong just not what I was wanting
Brother what is wrong with dnb jungle whoever these people are? I'm on tidal so I look to see how long the album is and it's over 5 hours longggggg.... OK it's a special edition so maybe it's bot that bad..... over 2 hours... broooooo. OK now that my whining is out of the way, this is a drum and bass thing. It does drum and bass things. Not my thing. Whatever. But this had some moments of almost being something I could see listening to but not quite. I just can't with the 3 second drum loop being nailed into my skull for 11 minutes. I appreciate some evolution. But that dumb drum beat is killing me and maybe someday it won't but for now it hurts. And by the by I have not finished the album yet and I will but the last 3 songs are not going to drastically change my mind............. it did not
It's the Beatles but a bit off. That's a bit facetious but it's kinda sorta a little bit true. I was looking for more than is here though sadly. Still enjoyable but it's not the white album of Abby road. I'll for the 100th time need to register to really get it. Maybe I won't even then but I'd like to give this another shot
This has a reputation and I dont see it exactly rhe same way. It doesn't have as many big big songs on it minus kashmir, as I was expecting. And it's solid. Very solid. Just less flash than I would have expected. I'll spin her round again to see but not that mind blowing.
Surprises here in the jt woods or whatever he was trying to do a few years ago. Some good pop here. Not a huge fan of his voice and inflections but the music itself is solid. Though it does oddly remind me of a bunch of different songs at points. Like mayhe I head another pop song in the way a synth is done or a guitar riff sounds like a Zelda song very strange and maybe it's nothing and just a me thing but maybe this is just a victim of the preset era. Either way it's decently good. The hits are hits for a reason and the b sides are still decent. Crazy to give it a 3 but I'm gonna
Common has always been an artist who is out of place and time. He feels like if you took grandmaster flash and stuck him in a time machine and brought him like 40 years ahead. Idk, he just has this old man flow. And idk if it's the samples he uses but those also just feel older. He's not bad just not a rapper I'm ride or dying with.
Hey it's the gorillaz for the British. But actually this is real good. Keeps my attention with the slower songs. It's just amazing that they can do this on a 1st or 2nd try. Wild. I don't understand how Americans like me just decided it's just song 2. This is the song 2 band. They have sooooooo much more
I don't get it. It's like a mix of a bunch of post grunge stuff. Like sometimes I hear some white stripes, sometimes I hear some deaftones, some incubus or something but I'd always rather go to the bands I hear influence here rather than listen to this again. It's not bad but it's just boring to me
Ayyy it's my ex governor. I had to look up who the hell this guy is and after a quick wiki search I think I might actually like this guys later stuff. This is still pretty early though. It's just not exciting. It doesn't do the thing I want music to do. There are a few little weird moments that make me think I'll like the Avante gaurde stuff he does later but scott 17 or whatever this one is ain't that. It's simple and not too hard to digest
Weird me one. As in I was weird. I'm a diabetic and was a bit low the whole short sweet little runtime. But it's good. I've heard most of it if not all of it before. It's a classic. The starting point if u have to put a definitive point on that of punk. Come on? What else do u want. It's a bit simple and that might be It's only thing but it's taking from bubblegum bullshit of the previous era. I do like bubblegum bullshit by the by. It's good. I'm happy. More punk for all please
OK I don't get it. Like there isn't that much to actually get but I don't. I just hear some like movie credits songs and some singer songwriter stuff. And that'd it. I guess I just don't understand this one it should at least be decent to me but I didn't even gel that much. Idk mannnnn
I like jazz but I'm a super novice. I don't know much but some stuff is real nice. This is a real nice. Just fun and eclectic but not unapproachable. Honestly perfect kind for me. A million great little runs. The whole thing is great but u catch tiny peices every handful of seconds that are interesting and cool. Real nice. I'm not sure if it gets full points but it's so close if not.
There is something deeply lame in this album. Somewhere down there is a Nugget of the cringe. Idk man this had very good production and not very good vocals in my opinion. The content feels very preachy and just like I'm being talked down to. Idk if I'm reading that right but that's what I felt in the moment. And it's just old. Nothing against the Olds but it's too close to hip a hop a hip and to the hop for my taste. Not it's own fault but it still is either way.
What us this? Who is Sam Cooke? A live album? What is going on? All thoughts I had when this popped up. We'll after a little teeny tiny listen i got it. It rules. I was skeptical with a live performance, how do you really distill a concert into just an audio stream? Well I think it was done here. The way he talks with he crowd and you can hear the crowd, he plays off them and it's so cool to hear on a record. And what a crop of songs? They rock. All of them but the cupid on and twisting the night away? What that song has an original author? What? It's not like some folk tune from olden days? So crazy. All the songs though are great. What a sick pick. Thank you 75 years ago and that fun night out.
I went into this a little down on it. After a song or 2 I was just thinking I'd rather be listening to kraftwork but it picks up. Still has some lulls of instrumental nothing imo but it's decent. Also cars is not a song I've thought of in a long time but what a song. Good little synthy popy dohicky
I didn't know Abba existed into the 80s but I guess this was the swan song until 2021 but damn. It's stuck between two worlds for me. Sometimes it sounds classic 70s Abba and sometimes it gets this weird 80s seeping in and it feels out of place. They still have good songs and alot of it here is good. It's just strange and off. Good writing and for them to gracefully just fade away rather than clawing for every second in the spotlight they can like alot of people. Class act that Abba. I'll have to check out their new album too
I always mix up Alanis and Fiona apple sorry. Both good but not the same. This is great. Packed with all time greats. I couldn't belive how many hit hit hiiittts were on this. Like every other song was mega. The less popular stuff is still pretty great too. She has a very unique voice and I love it. Like for real not just is soooo unique and fun and wow omg. Not that. It's sick. It feels a bit childish at points but she was a child so it's understandable.
It's just too subtle. Maybe if it grabbed my attention better I would care but I just don't. It's not bad it's just not good either. Sorry if this is ur favorite album 😢
I assumed I was not going to like this about 3 seconds in. It could have been worse cause it the cover I thought I was getting 45 minutes of whale sounds like you buy and the crystal shoppe. But it still really really sucks. There is no structure and I'm sure that's the point and they nailed that aspect but it still needs to be enjoyable to listen to or say something. I get it and I agree u can make whatever this is and be free and spirited or whatever but at the end of the day I needed breaks from a short record. Once I was 10 minutes into the 20 minute hellscape I put 1 down in my notes and I was hoping it would change but it only got worse. They would hit on an interesting musical idea but in 2 seconds were off to something that isn't interesting. Very very frustrating album.
Solid. That's kinda all I got for this. It's nice and has some hits here. Quite a few I might add but it's just not grabbing me. Give me the smiths for my sad sad days. It's good but idk if it stays in rotation
Ayyyy I must really be in a Depeche mode..... ahhhhhhhh... never-ending suffering. Anywho this is very similar to violator. Less hits but equal in quality. Also equal in me not caring too much. Good stuff but not getting spun constantly
This is unfair to this album to be honest. I was looking forward to the new Jane Remover record and that was in my mind alot of this listen. It's still good though. Honestly better than the last album I had by them. The one with the building on the cover. Yeeee that might not go over well to the aged sorry. It's got a few bangers. But why is can't you hear me knocking like a 6373 minute song? It just falls off the rails and turns into a jam, which is fine but I don't want to hear that jam everything I press play on that one. Solid rockers that feel less bluesy than the last record.
There are aloy of things to like about this record and even this era as a whole. There is some good to great instrumental parts but it just feels too dated alot of the time. Things have progressed in the metal world in the last 40 years. Just feels quaint. And then my biggest sticking point... Dave Mustaine. His voice and alot of voices in the whole genre are so so terrible. They all suck. Even James Hatfield is awful, sneak peak at when they pop up. They just have the worst warbbly bullshit. I like off beat vocals alot but this is the worst. If I could give this a 2.5 idk if there is another album that I love half and hate half almost exactly. But those vocal put it down
Da beeeeeeets. It's rubber soul. Don't we all know by now? It's the Beatles but it's not the best Beatles. It's in a weird halfway between boy band and drugs I guess. Some sachrine bullshit sometimes but Norwegian wood exists so 🤷.
Wow that was fun. Just pure unadulterated fun. I'm sure some lyrics are a down but I didn't hear it. All I heard was a bunch of people throwing out ideas and running with every one. It feels like everyone in the band was on EQUAL ground and if u had a suggestion everyone else would take that idea ad far as it would go. It's just nice to hear when u think about the Beatles who all hated each other. I could be totally wrong but that's how this record felt. Not every idea is worth as much time as they spend but they tried and I admire that alot. Just cool
After 3 seconds I knew what I was getting into. It's a type of album i like BUT, ad big of a but as I can convey, I need to be in a mood for it. I like trout mask replica and this feels like an evolution of something like that. It's the late 70s early 80s version of that. It's weird it's wild and it's challenging. Not for everyone but there is alot to get out of it if u put in the work.
What a sick album. Breaking the law is a perfect song. We all knew that but there's alot of other songs here too and they mostly rock. As a whole it's a little slow tempo wise for my hard rock/metal tastes but I almost didn't notice. Also the vocals are a bit too hair mentally bullshit I don't like but only a little. Guitars rip. And it just kills
Sure does make you feel classy and cool listening to this. Like your a mysterious man bathed in shadows in the back corner of a bar, smoke rising from the cigarette slowly smoldering into the ash tray in front of you with wisps gently floating past your darkened face. I'm just a dude walking my dog around the neighborhood. So many little sections that nicely flow one to the next. And I think I read this was all off the cuff which is insane. Dude is seriously talented. Being an instrumental purely drops it ever so slightly. That's just a thing I need in music 99% of the time. And it's just piano. An hour of very good piano but it can't be more than that. Damn good stuff though
Nothing wrong here but it really didn't do anything for me. It's just early 2000s pop like rocky thing. It's just not very compelling. It's not bad but it's nothing.
I'm actually surprised. Everyone knows paper planes right? It's just a part of the culture. But no one had heard the rest? Maybe that's just me. But holy shit did I hate this. On paper it sounds perfect. But none of it works for me. The weird double vocals that don't even feel synched up or even playing off each other at all. And why is the whole thing recorded on like 3 tracks? I just feel empty when I hear these beats. Like half of what is supposed to be there just isn't. She turned in her half done homework. It's just awful. Paper planes and the final track with timberland feel like the only listen able tracks here. I'm kinda bummed cause i wanted to like it but I just cannot do that
Come onnnn what do you say? It's a masterpiece. Its beautiful in every aspect. There isn't anything left to say. Everyone should listen. And that's that
This is nice. It makes sense why it's still loved. It's not really my thing. But I know it's good. That's kinda all
This is a me problem, but I was expecting something more new wave or punk adjacent. This is full of ballads. Like they are good but it's just not my speed.
Well. I first heard of the meat puppets because it seemed like Cobain loved them. I always like following the thread of your favorite artists favorite artist. And for a time nirvana was it. But they covered plateau and lake of fire on that really nice unplugged. So I had some knowledge of who these guys were going into this. But I was blown away. It's so good. Packed with a ton of great songs and great instrumental jams. I can't usually abide those vocaless tracks but these kept my attention better than any others I've seen I'm a long time. Just tons of great riffs and melodies. Must listen for any grunge head
Well I saved more than half the album so I think it just has to be a 5. Like half of those songs are slow songs and that's not me really. They are just too good. And the funky songs are amazing. Superstition is a perfect song. I didn't even realize it was Stevie wonder until emarissingly late. But it's just a part of the culture. It's in every animated movie from 2001 to now. But damn he can play the keys. And probably everything else. The absolute god. This is good. Listen. That is all
A kind of interesting mess is the best I've got here. It's doesn't have a ton of structure but there are some really interesting ideas deep down in there. I'm not opposed to working for it but I don't really want to put the work in for this if you know what I mean? I do enjoy the sort of half gibberish but half English, at least enough to make it feel unsettling, lyrical thing here. After the album finished I got an auto play of Signed Curtain and I let it play just to hear anything else this guy did and he just sings this is the verse and then here is the chorus and so on just explaining his process. That's cool. So maybe I'll be excited to get another one of his on here or just go digging on my own. I was gonna give this a 2 because it's so messy but I'm so intrigued by this guy it's getting an extra point. Maybe it deserves it maybe it doesn't. We'll the final leg of the final song was great by the way. It's of the sea in the best way. I really liked that and if he's got more of that I'm so so sooo down
I'm not sure. It's fine to listen to but nothing really grabs me. I just don't feel much of anything here. Mayne in another headspace idk
2nd day in a row I feel a whole lot of nothing for an album. This one I should like more for sure though. Well the 2nd to last track was very good no I guess it's more than nothing. Surprised though
Fugazi is a weird one. It's a band I should like but doesn't really do much for me. I liked listening to this but if I never heard it again it would be fine too. But on paper it should be one of my favorites. But it's just not
Some pretty nice psych type stuff and some country twang on some songs. Alot to unpack here. But i listened to it in the worst way. Kinda unfair. My right earbud died like 2songs in. Then it the left died at trck 10 or so. Then I finished the rest later. Couldn't have been worse foe this record. I'll give it a 3 for fairness of all that
Before listening to this the only frame of reference I had for frank black is a line from a bloodhound gang song. But I'm glad to know more. This dude has it. Super catchy but feels like it has alot to say. And an hour flew by. Very happy listening.
I like bowie most of the time and that's here along with all this ambient stuff. Mostly ambient bullshit. That I'm not into. But the albums namesake is good classic bowie. Just feels like he wrote 4 and a half songs and made it work for a whole album. Not my favorite but still has some good
Comeback stories of the century. Wow. I'm happy surprised with this record. I had eno and David Byrne and I didn't like that at all. Then I had robert Wyatt just othe other day and thought how interesting the ideas he had were but couldn't get behind the structure less whatever of that album. But with you bring these two together it actually works. Eno supplies the structure Wyatt needs and Wyatt adds the vocal flair and rhe structure that Enos stuff needs. Very happy here though. Very good all around
Was expecting something more psychedelic or experimental. And yes some of both of those things are here but not to the degree i thought I was getting into. It's more just a slightly experimental kinda Louisiana type bluegrass type bayou music. It's pretty decent though all things considering.
Just not a van Halen guy ar all. I'll start with the good. Like 80% of this record was hits. They made bank I bet. And the guitar tone really is one of a kind. I do like that. But that's where my list of pros ends. The vocals suck so very much. I hate them 100%. Eruption isn't a song. It's just a solo. What is this doo wop thing they got going on a surprising number of times in 30 minutes. Also there is another pro. It's merciful lengthwise. It's just not my thing. If you love van Halen then hell yes brother sister man friend. I'm happy for you. Just don't play that shit anywhere near me.
A bit disappointed here. The first song rules and it got my expectations a hit too high. It's all very nice and listen able but a bit boring compared to the album with the dogs running on it. Feels like it's just a bit too slow and chill for my taste
It's fine. Nothing too cool or too bad. If I could give it a 2.5 I would but I gotta figure out if it's a 2 or a 3. Hmmm. We'll I guess it wasn't bad per say.
Not that crazy. I appreciate that it's pretty much the indie blueprint for the last 30 years or whatever. There is a little peice of DNA in the new fortress and the walls or whatever dumb name they got. But this was nice nothing that blew my mind but the albums namesake is great. Everything else is fine
So freddy mercury is queen right? At least to me. There are other guys in the band who are probably all great musicians but it's really all about freddy at the end of the day. And it felt like he wasn't here for the 1st half of the record. Sure he was but he didn't have that power and look at me energy that he has on all the hits. Not saying every song has to be that but I was disappointed with this mostly. Some good stuff back loaded but not that good.
Haven't heard this one before but I doo t care. Bitter-sweet symphony is a perfect song. It rules and there is nothing you can say about it. OK the rest of the tracks are fine but I don't want to listen to them again. I wasn't angry or upset I just wandered away. I couldn't stop thinking about a book im reading and not listening to the music. It's just boring. It's fine but im bored to tears
More subdued than I expected from Stevie here. It's still good just slow. Not enough funky peices here for my tastes. But it's still a good time. Worth thr listen for sure. Just alot of slow songs
Fantano is right. It's not that good. And if you think it's one of the best of all time that's fine. I'll just know your in the cult. Kanye has always been a strange one to me. He's massively influential and that's where my love for him starts and ends. He is my favorite artists favorite artist and I'll always be grateful for that but I just don't like 90% of what he does. There are some brilliant moments here and there but before you know it is on some bullshit again. Like on the 2nd song why are all the vocals slathered in some shitty filter. Why do we need that? But then runaway comes on and it's a perfect song. I don't understand. And in the year of our lord 2025 I don't understand how people can still live in this cult of personality. He's not a good guy but then again I don't think any celebrity is good really anyway. But he's a mentally ill man who we point cameras at 24/7 and then laugh at the insanity. It does really suck. Kanye isn't great but Kanye is Kanye and that's kinda it.
Well well well. If it isn't some wife beating music. Im joking but only kinda. This is music that I would see tony soprano rough up one of his girlfriends. Maybe that Russian one with the peg leg mom. But all jokes aside it's Sinatra. That's all. From the get go it's exactly what you would expect. And it's good. All around. Not really my favorite thing but i enjoyed my time pretty thoroughly.
Bro im 30. Im wayyyyyyy past my metal elitist phase. I don't ever listen to it anymore, though I don't have anything against it just not my go to. But damn this rocks. I've been aware of sepultura for a long time and roots bloody roots is just like a metal standard right? But damn the drums on this are too sick. They really drive the whole project. The vocals also are pretty standard but they get some chants going sometimes that I can only assume are Brazilian folk/tribal in origin. Or they could be football chants i don't know but they rule. The guitar is sluge and chunky. Not too crazy and the 4 second guitar solo on a single song was a laugh out loud moment for me. I love it.
Well this was something. Im not usually a live album guy. I like live music but a recording of a live performance just is the outer shell of what a live show is. But this is remembered as one of the best for a reason. You get little interactions with cash and the crowd. They call out numbers to go visit custody or whatever. The prisoners are yelling out at all sorts of things. How did this happen? Who set this up? What a master of planning. Wow and the songs are fun and funny alot of the time. Alot of them are about prison and getting in trouble. And when his wife comes out to duet and they go bonkers. Its fun. Just all around
Pretty middling in my opinion. Im sure if I cared about lyrics this would make sense but I don't. She sings well but not well enough to keep my attention. She did do this cool thing where as she sings she pounds on her chest giving it this kinda sinchopated thing going on. Its creative and I like it alot. But at the end of the days it's just soo subtle for my tastes. Maybe if I get a few more years under my belt it would hit harder but right now it's right in the middle
We are like 60% of the way there on this one. I grew up in the pop punk era. And this is the beginnings of it being dragged out of the muck. It has that punk DNA but it's completely in the 90s here. It feels like exactly like alot of other stuff of the time but also it's own. Im not sure but it's alright. Girl from mars is funny and silly. Like a thing that a 12 year old would write but I mean so was half that stuff I liked when I was also 12. I enjoyed this but not all the way
Might be the least me album i can come up with. But I kinda love it. Im not sure how many of these songs I'll be spinning for years to come but damn. They can play and sing. The fiddle is top tier. When its in the mix im happy. And when its other things im also pretty satisfied. Just a great folk cleric thing. Idk what even it is but at the end of the day I enjoyed my time here
So I've been told this is one of the greats and it very well may be. But its just not for me. Its too subtle and too laid back in its approach. Its good but it doesn't hit that hard for me. Its not to the level I have been told about. She has a powerful voice and I appreciate that alot.
OK this came out the year I was born. So I've never heard this or even was slightly aware of its existence. But damn dude. Its not illmatic buuuttt its very very good. The beats are amazing the whole time. That 1st song with the reversed i think its cymbals but its so so sick. The flows all over rule in that old school way. The rapping is cleaver and good but that producer i can't get over. OK I just looked it up and its dh premier so I guess that's why its good. Damn dude imma be playing this for a bit
So I liked the newest lupe album. It was an enjoyable listen. And this is too. But its off rotation immediately. Its just not my style. Its too lyrical for my tastes. If I cared about that more it would get a higher score but alas I do not. A couple good beats but generally pretty middle of the road for me. Also this is just too long. And I like that it ends on a nice thank you to the hundreds of people who make things like this happen but does it need to be almost 15 minutes long? Its a nice gesture but its excessive. Pretty mid for me
I was certain going into this it was gonna get a 3 max but I was wrong. Its pretty much pop bliss. Like I couldn't have guessed this would be anything at all. But I recognized like half or more of the tracks on this. Lime in the coconut? Wtf? That's a song somebody wrote and not just an ever present construct of the human experience? Wow just wow
Its jimi. He plays guitar gud. What else? I mean in a way its slightly quaint at least compared to those math nerds who chug in metal but they wouldn't even exist without Hendrix. It was an experience and one worth having
Death by 1000 paper cuts. That's the best way to describe what I just went through. This isn't bad music. Its quite nice actually. Not exactly my style but I can get down for some amount of time. But not this amount of time. Give this man an editor, someone to tell him no. If this was like 12 tracks and maybe 45 minutes of runtime I would very easily give this a positive review but at 3 hours long its a test in patience more than an album. After 7 songs I was already fatigued. And knowing Im only 10% of the way there at that point is agonizing. I did listen to it all but I was done so fast. There are good songs probably but I could not pick them out of this police lineup of every person who ever lived. Its just insane. U have wasted my time and brother stop falling in love with every Barista u ever meet. Yes every woman is beautiful but have some damn restraint. Love isn't this and this only technically counts a music
Hey its not Garfunkel. I don't know any of either of these guys stuff outside of when they worked together but I got to know some of paul Simon today. I had a good time. Saved a few songs. But I fell off in the second half and didn't care too much for its later parts. Just good pop acoustic and songwriter type stuff. Worth a listen
OK so i understand the the armastice type situation that walk this way did for the rock and hip hop and how cool that is. But Aerosmith fucking sucks. Steven Tyler has a horrible voice. Run dmc is better. But my problem with this era or maybe just run dmc is they start the album off rapping nursery rhymes. Like ive hear glorilla do it in a balaclava on whatever radio show that is but its a novelty. Its not anything beyond that. Like damn. OK so to the actual album is heat after song 1. Tricky and my Adidas are classics. I did so many stupid Snowboard tricks on ps2 with that song playing. But after that I just dont get anything out of it other than the aforementioned walk this way. But damn I was expecting more with how much I like those 2 tracks. Bit nothing for me after that
This is not the 70s emmylou and I kinda find some issue with that. Its generally just feels more commercial and sterile. She's still a great singer but the instrumentals backing her are not it. Maybe that's just the times it was made in but it doesn't change my feelings about it. I was excited cause I liked peices of the sky quite a decent bit and just didn't get what I liked about that record here. Kind of a shame but its still decent just not me
