4/5

3/5

Might have to listen to it again but didn't really excite me. I was interested at the beginning but I felt it a bit repetitive after a while. Worth another try anyway

1/5

The beginning was almost promising.. but no, I changed my mind really fast

Fisherman's Blues

The Waterboys

3/5

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

3/5

Call of the Valley

Shivkumar Sharma

Hole

2/5

Fifth Dimension

The Byrds

4/5

Bone Machine

3/5

X-Ray Spex

1/5

Wow, that's so bad, it's like a constant whining My mother begged me to stop this torture, but I endured until the end.. it was painful

Nothing exciting

Play

The Downward Spiral

Nine Inch Nails

3/5

It has not been a pleasant nor enjoyable experience to listen to this BUT I must admit it's incredibly interesting and well crafted. Unfortunately it's not for me and I don't think I'll listen to this again.. so 5 stars for the art, 1 star for the experience

3/5

Generally pleasant, something good, something meh, not excited

2/5

That was weird

The Velvet Underground

5/5

Brilliant

System Of A Down

2/5

Absolutely not for me, but I understand the value

Wonderful Rainbow

Lightning Bolt

4/5

That's utterly crazy, it's quite the opposite of what I like and still it's so damn interesting, I would listen to it again and that's absolutely unexpected considering my taste. I wouldn't say it's one of my favourite until now at all, but still, the surprise sometimes is worth even more. Maybe it's just that I know nothing of the genre but I have never heard anything like this and it's amazing

We Are Family

Sister Sledge

3/5

Nothing special, a bit too repetitive but didn't annoy me that much

Pictures At An Exhibition

4/5

Quite brilliant

Under Construction

2/5

Quite boring

Groovy, I love it. The first tracks are perfect, the last ones are a bit less interesting to me, but still very good

Brown Sugar

D'Angelo

2/5

The instrumental part as was quite good in some tracks, I just don't stand the genre I'm afraid

Another Music In A Different Kitchen

Buzzcocks

2/5

Nothing so interesting

John Prine

5/5

I'm quite baffled that I didn't know this before.. that's just right for me, really nothing to object to Perfection

Maxinquaye

Tricky

3/5

Not for me but the woman voice is amazing

Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret

Soft Cell

4/5

I weirdly loved this, it's almost a 5star album, but I'll listen to it when I'm in a different mood and think about this again

Van Halen

4/5

Quite good

Horses

Patti Smith

4/5

Quite interesting

Idlewild

Everything But The Girl

That's nice

What the actual fuck was this Not cool man, just a french could concieve such a disgrace

Darkness on the Edge of Town

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

I've already forgot it, nothing special

Sound of Silver

LCD Soundsystem

3/5

There are some extremely good ideas in it, but it's too repetitive at times

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

2/5

A bit boring

Led Zeppelin IV

Led Zeppelin

5/5

Very good

The Slim Shady LP

Eminem

1/5

Completely valueless

Nilsson Schmilsson

Harry Nilsson

5/5

Beautiful

La Revancha Del Tango

Gotan Project

4/5

Very pleasant

The Band

5/5

Can't ask for more

The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn

Pink Floyd

4/5

The middle part is trippy, certainly unique, but it's not really for me, and then it all makes sense in the end to enjoy the nonsense medievalesque last tracks that are really beautiful

Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)

Wu-Tang Clan

1/5

Nup

Oracular Spectacular

MGMT

4/5

I don't know why but I like it

The Genius Of Ray Charles

Ray Charles

4/5

Beautiful of course

KIWANUKA

Michael Kiwanuka

4/5

Actually very good, was not expecting this, chilling but interesting, many different genres in it

Buena Vista Social Club

4/5

Lovely, nothing groundbreaking, but I would listen to this anytime

Phrenology

The Roots

1/5

Nup

Closer

Joy Division

2/5

Meh, not remarkable

The Gershwin Songbook

Ella Fitzgerald

5/5

I honestly didn't know much of Gershwin besides the Rhapsody In Blue. That's amazing and Fitzgerald just makes it better. I think that just Ella singing would have conquered me. And also just Gershwin sung by someone else. So that's a jackpot

Kind Of Blue

Miles Davis

5/5

I'm not talking about this album specifically, but this is the undebatable peak of music. This period, this genre. After this we just started going backwards, it's unreachable. And this album of course is a marvelous example of that. As an old friend of mine said, if you don't appreciate blues, you got a hole where your soul should be

For Your Pleasure

Roxy Music

3/5

That's really interesting, I've absolutely loved some tracks, but some others were quite boring. To be honest the one about an inflatable doll weirded me out a little bit, but I guess I'll have to be more focused on the lyrics next time. So, mixed feelings.

The Poet

Bobby Womack

4/5

Such a good mood

Clandestino

Manu Chao

3/5

A couple of really catchy tracks, but nothing too surprising

Slanted And Enchanted

Pavement

2/5

Not so much for me

Heartattack And Vine

Tom Waits

4/5

I've got a problem with Waits. The first album I heard was Closing Time, crazy stuff, loved it immensely. But I'm discovering it's about the only album where his voice is normal, I can't stand this hoarse sound. I truly can't. In Closing Time everything is perfect. Here the voice drives my mad, but luckily the piano is stunning as always and makes up for it

Face to Face

The Kinks

5/5

That's good stuff

Different Class

Pulp

4/5

Good but a bit slow sometimes

Hot Fuss

The Killers

3/5

It was not annoying, but left me nothing

Tidal

Fiona Apple

4/5

That's good, but fetch the boltcutters was on another level

Fred Neil

4/5

Loved some, indifferent to others, but generally good to me

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

2/5

I don't like christmas songs at all, but there are worst ones

Stevie Wonder

3/5

Mainly not so original and yet quite pleasant

Pump

Aerosmith

4/5

Very cool

Bug

Dinosaur Jr.

2/5

The first tracks were ok, then it was a bit annoying

Music From The Penguin Cafe

Penguin Cafe Orchestra

4/5

That's something truly beautiful. The beginning of each track was splendid, unfortunately it is a bit too repetetive, so that's not a 5

Dummy

Portishead

2/5

Not really for me

The Seldom Seen Kid

Elbow

4/5

That's nice and chilled, worth listening again

(Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd)

Lynyrd Skynyrd

5/5

What a banger

Raw Power

The Stooges

4/5

That's very good, I'm not sure about what, but something bugs me tho. For now is a 4, might become a 5 after relistening some times

Penthouse And Pavement

Heaven 17

2/5

A bit too repetitive

Midnight Ride

Paul Revere & The Raiders

5/5

That's very good. Most of the tracks are amazing, some are just a bit less, so I was not 100% sure about the 5th star.. but then the little girl in the 4th row (Italian version) happened. I'm Italian. I've never laughed so much. Made my night, I would listen to this album again anytime knowing what's waiting for me at the 13th track

Sweet Baby James

James Taylor

5/5

Just right for me

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

1/5

It's not even the most repetitive and unoriginal rap album I've found 'till now, so I was maybe thinking giving it 2 stars. But again, that's not even music to me, I've just regretted giving 2 stars to the others not-so-unoriginal rap albums I've met. You deserve your 1 star

Rock Bottom

Robert Wyatt

1/5

mmmmmm

Live At The Witch Trials

The Fall

2/5

meh

Unknown Pleasures

Joy Division

2/5

I don't know, I had higher expectations

Born To Run

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

Pleasant, not groundbreaking

GI

Germs

2/5

Too much screaming

Kilimanjaro

The Teardrop Explodes

3/5

That's not annoying, but it's nothing special. I wouldn't listen to this again but it wasn't painful.. so there you are

Pink Flag

Wire

3/5

Bongo Rock

Incredible Bongo Band

4/5

Noice

Ocean Rain

Echo And The Bunnymen

4/5

After the first listening I was quite doubious, but no, that's good, now I can see that

Wild Wood

Paul Weller

2/5

Meh, it's not like there is something blatantly annoying or boring, actually if I try to listen to a single random song.. it's quite good. But I just can't listen to this album from start to finish, I've tried like 5 times, I always get distracted and end up doing something else.. so I guess it's not really captivating to me. It would be a 3, but the universe is telling me it should be less than that

Here Come The Warm Jets

Brian Eno

4/5

I listened to this while biking under a storm being followed by a large group of stray dogs. I found it very pleasant and enjoyable, 10/10 would do again

Songs From A Room

Leonard Cohen

4/5

That's good, not so varied tho

Home Is Where The Music Is

5/5

Not my favourite kind of jazz.. still amazing tho

5/5

Loved it

...Baby One More Time

Britney Spears

1/5

That's embarassing

3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of...

Arrested Development

4/5

I absolutely hate rap. This was really good tho. It makes sense this way. This is music

The Number Of The Beast

Iron Maiden

5/5

That's very surprising for me, but I've love this. Maybe it's because when I bike I'm happy and everything is beautiful, but that's some awesome biking material. Brilliant

Juju

Siouxsie And The Banshees

3/5

Tragic Songs of Life

The Louvin Brothers

3/5

I really like country, but that's a bit too much all the same

The White Album

Beatles

4/5

That's good.. but it's too much stuff to be all good and, in fact, it isn't

In It For The Money

Supergrass

3/5

Decent

21

Adele

3/5

Quite commercial

Eternally Yours

The Saints

3/5

Enjoyable

Impressive. I knew the first one of course, but the rest of them is even better!

Highway to Hell

AC/DC

4/5

Not my cup of tea but undoubtedly good

The Scream

Siouxsie And The Banshees

3/5

The Soft Bulletin

The Flaming Lips

3/5

Interesting but nothing unique

Talking With the Taxman About Poetry

Billy Bragg

5/5

Not even so strong musically.. but, I mean, there is power in a union ✊🏿

The Bends

Radiohead

4/5

Quite interesting

Rum Sodomy & The Lash

The Pogues

5/5

Beautiful

Songs Of Love And Hate

Leonard Cohen

2/5

Meh, it didn't convince me

Roxy Music

4/5

There is something very interesting, not all of it is worth unfortunately

Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite

Maxwell

3/5

Good background music, but not much more

Illinois

Sufjan Stevens

5/5

That's very good. Very different from what I was expecting, but good nonetheless

Shake Your Money Maker

The Black Crowes

4/5

Quite good, but a bit generic at times

Bert Jansch

5/5

Truly beautiful

Before And After Science

Brian Eno

3/5

Unimpressed

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below

OutKast

3/5

Not even so bad considering it's hip hop. But it's really embarrassingly long

Kenza

Khaled

3/5

I'm interested because it is quite different (the sound of it) from what I listen to normally, but it doesn't sound so good everything considered

90

808 State

1/5

Is there actually someone unironically listening to this? I'm not sure this is music

At San Quentin

Johnny Cash

5/5

What should I say I love everything about this

LP1

FKA twigs

2/5

Not really my stuff, I recognise the value and it reminds me of GRIS, so that's a plus. But in the end I wouldn't listen to this again

Imperial Bedroom

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

4/5

Nice

Siembra

Willie Colón & Rubén Blades

5/5

During the first minutes I was thinking "yep, this will get three stars, usual spanish stuff, pleasant but nothing interesting". NO, that's beautiful, carefully crafted and addictive. Will definetely look up other stuff of this genre

Solid Air

John Martyn

4/5

Very good and smooth

Welcome To The Pleasuredome

Frankie Goes To Hollywood

4/5

It took me 4 times to get this And the fact that I kept coming back for it already meant something It's good

69 Love Songs

The Magnetic Fields

4/5

I was so sure I would have hate this. Of course it is impossible to keep a constant good quality for such a long time, but this songs are terribly different one from the other, and that's already incredible. But I've gotta say that I've enjoyed most of the tracks anyway, listening to the whole thing in one session might be exhausting, but I discovered that any random pick drove me to a good place. So, most of them are actually good, some bored me out, but all of them had that genuine mood of an embarassed first love. Good stuff

MTV Unplugged In New York

Nirvana

2/5

Meh. Mainly because it's live

My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts

Brian Eno

2/5

I just don't understand what it is trying to tell me. It's not even so unpleasant, but quite empty

Deloused in the Comatorium

The Mars Volta

4/5

Interesting

Forever Changes

Love

5/5

Soo good

Calenture

The Triffids

3/5

I don't know, it's nothing interesting, but I don't understand the very low score.. it's just meh for me

Reggatta De Blanc

The Police

3/5

Not so interesting, a couple nice ones tho

Vulgar Display Of Power

Pantera

4/5

Not really my stuff, but it served a very specific purpose. I mean, this is not interesting enough to be something that I listen to while focused only on the music. It is not pleasant and discreet enough to be listened to while I do some other mental work. But, oh boy, if I'm late and I have to bike, that's the solution. This morning I was really late for my first lesson, but I managed to get there on time and that's just because when I felt like I needed to slow down a bit, there was someone screaming "FUKKIN' HOSTILEEEEE" in my ears. Never been so fast in my life. Zoom zoom

The Renaissance

Q-Tip

2/5

Some good ideas, but mainly repetitive and annoying

Björk

4/5

Exceptional

Cheap Thrills

Big Brother & The Holding Company

5/5

Woah, Janice Joplin was in a band? I had no idea! Anyway, she's just unreachable

Siamese Dream

The Smashing Pumpkins

3/5

It's ok, but I don't understand the very high score, it's not so interesting after all

Toys In The Attic

Aerosmith

5/5

Incredibly interesting and very catchy Wow

Alanis Morissette

5/5

That's interesting

Arrival

Meh, British angry boi

Bluesbreakers

John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers

4/5

Nice, not so varied tho

Channel Orange

1/5

Less annoying than pure hip hop, but utterly irrelevant

Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not

Arctic Monkeys

5/5

Ok, that's neat. The brain says 4, but the heart says 5

The Next Day

David Bowie

3/5

Not really my stuff

All Directions

The Temptations

3/5

I don't know, it's very strong musically, but it keeps leaving me unsatisfied, no idea why

The Last Broadcast

Doves

2/5

Meh, quite bland

The Boatman's Call

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

3/5

A bit boring

The Chronic

Dr. Dre

1/5

Painful

Head Hunters

Herbie Hancock

4/5

I understand the appeal and yea it's really groovy. But come on, do we truly want to compare this version of watermelon man with the one with Hubbard? It's a completely different genre, I agree, but my heart lays there. 4 stars anyway because Hancock is a genius

In The Wee Small Hours

Frank Sinatra

4/5

Very nice

At Newport 1960

Muddy Waters

5/5

Astonishing, this man is made of blues

Chicago Transit Authority

Chicago

4/5

They are very good, generally very catchy and well built, but also original and experimental at times

Django Django

5/5

If you listen to it ten times in a row and you just keep liking it more every time, it's the right album. I don't know why, it's very original, and it's for me

After The Gold Rush

Neil Young

2/5

Honestly it's not even that bad. I like this sort of things. Unfortunately his voice is unbearable

Destroyer

KISS

4/5

Quite good

Sincere

Supertramp

5/5

Loved it

At Fillmore East

The Allman Brothers Band

5/5

I could listen to this 24/7

Grace

3/5

Hallelujah is very good, but almost everything else doesn't really excite me. And that's a cover.. well, that's still good, makes a star of his own

The Age Of The Understatement

The Last Shadow Puppets

5/5

That voice makes it for me

Triangle

The Beau Brummels

4/5

Honestly liked it. Quite dull, it's true, and some tracks were forgettable, but overall there's a quite pleasant mood and I'm fond of it

Fever To Tell

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

4/5

Woah, what a voice. There's this italian song that goes "I didn't know what kind of voice he spoke with, what kind of voice he used to sing with" to express the fact that the author really didn't know the person he is talking about that much. Now I understand this a little better. I wouldn't go anywhere nearby anyone singing with this kind of voice, it's really insane. I'd listen to it from afar gladly tho

In Rainbows

Radiohead

3/5

Damn, I tried really hard to like this, but I guess it's just not for me, it doesn't tell me much unfortunately

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

4/5

Nice stuff indeed

Basket of Light

Pentangle

5/5

I truly don't understand the low scores, that's something beautiful! Incredibly interesting fusion of genres

Too Rye Ay

Dexys Midnight Runners

4/5

Funny shit, the voice is a bit annoying, but overall nice

Murmur

R.E.M.

4/5

Very nice

2112

Rush

5/5

Amazing, loved it. Beautifully crafted

Grievous Angel

Gram Parsons

4/5

Country is always nice to me, but it's a bit plain

Duck Stab/Buster & Glen

The Residents

1/5

Wow, unbelievable. Not in a good way

Shalimar

Rahul Dev Burman

3/5

Mostly nice, original and catchy, but really puzzling how the author choose the non-english/american songs.. I'm baffled. I would also have preferred the few foreign songs to be more "foreign" and not so westernized as this

Jazz Samba

Stan Getz

5/5

Perfection

The Stooges

4/5

It's not really for me, but I can see the greatness

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

3/5

I was expecting something very different, listened to it countless time, but I can't grasp it, sometimes I'm excited, sometimes indifferent. I'll leave a balanced rating and keep thinking about it

Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus

Spirit

5/5

Brilliant

Fever Ray

5/5

Weirdly loved it

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

4/5

There are some bangers, but I was expecting to like it more in general

Let Love Rule

Lenny Kravitz

4/5

At first I was very skeptical, but it grew on me. Impressive instrumentals, less impressed by the voice, but overall a good experience

Tuesday Night Music Club

Sheryl Crow

4/5

Nothing incredible, but it's very pleasant

Moondance

Van Morrison

5/5

The whole album is quite solid, but moondance is a masterpiece

Music For The Jilted Generation

The Prodigy

1/5

Woah, it was hard to endure this long ass sequence of minimalistic noises. I'm sorry but that's not even music for me, might be a pretty lame base for some uninspired song at best

Antichrist Superstar

Marilyn Manson

1/5

Sounds like a bad person And a quick glance at the other reviews (followed by a rapid search on google) confirms the impression. Ew. I think we should be able to distinguish between art and artist, but, unlike Hitler, whose art I appreciate, I hate this music deeply. Simply ungraceful voice with bland instrumentals, overall a bad experience. He's just a criminal that makes poor music

Survivor

Destiny's Child

3/5

I had very low expectations, it's not that bad, but nothing more

Blood Sugar Sex Magik

Red Hot Chili Peppers

3/5

A couple interesting ones, but it doesn't capture me unfortunately

It's Blitz!

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

5/5

On the first run I loved the first few tracks and got bored later on. On the second run I learned to appreciate one more song, and so on. Now I love it all and I've also revalued fever to tell, they both deserve 5 stars, this woman is amazing

Close To You

Carpenters

4/5

Generally pleasant. Help is awful, but Mr. Guder is pretty neat, worth it

Cupid & Psyche 85

Scritti Politti

3/5

Not so hideous as the score made me think.. I mean, not interesting, but not unpleasant

american dream

LCD Soundsystem

4/5

Great stuff

World Clique

Deee-Lite

3/5

It does get repetitive very soon, but there are some brilloant ideas in it

Smash

The Offspring

5/5

Amazing, relistened multiple times already

This Year's Model

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

3/5

A couple interesting, a couple annoying, all in all nothing special

Beach Samba

Astrud Gilberto

4/5

Very pleasant, but not so varied. Plus points for making me discover the origin of "la banda" by Mina

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

3/5

Despite son of a preacher man I'd say this is mid to me. It's good, but I wouldn't listen to it again

Coat Of Many Colors

Dolly Parton

5/5

Beautiful

Nick Of Time

Bonnie Raitt

3/5

Not so interesting to me, but very pleasant and incredibly well executed. Yet I don't think I'll listen to this again unfortunately

People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm

A Tribe Called Quest

2/5

Just not my kind of music unfortunately. Surely better than many others I've listened here, so I'll give it a +1, but still just annoying to me.. I'm pretty sure I'll never feel the need to listen to this again

Chirping Crickets

Buddy Holly & The Crickets

4/5

A very pleasant classic
