Nearly every song overstays its welcome. The album has some decent tracks though.
Most of the songs are really good, the highlights being: - Bat out of hell - Paradise by the dashboard light - All revved up with no place to go
Very mellow sounding, bit too much for me. Barely noticed the album was even playing sometimes.
The first 8 tracks are bangers, unfortunately I didn't enjoy the subsequent songs as much. Still a very good album overall.
Felt like an experimental album. Did not enjoy at all.
Thought it was a decent album
It's a pretty long album at 30 tracks but was found it quite enjoyable overall.
Couldn't bring myself to enjoy even a single song on this album
A few of the songs seemed alright but the album isn't really for me
It was a nice album to have on in the background but I couldn't pick out any standout songs.
I haven't listened to this album for a long time. Brings back a lot of memories. Really enjoyed listening to it again.
I liked the first two and last two songs which is 40% of the album.
A really good funk album, enjoyed almost all the songs. Was nice to listen to something I wouldn't usually pick.
Thought it was okay, nothing stood out to me.
It gets a bit samey but works alright in the background like a retro video game soundtrack.
A mellow jazz album that works nicely has background music. Not sure I concentrated on the music enough to appreciate it fully.
Has some good tunes, I prefer some of their other albums though
Thought it was decent but I enjoy their later albums more.
Thought it was fairly "meh" for glam rock. Didn't particularly dislike it but nothing stood out either.
SMBU, Breathe and Firestarter are classics but the rest of the album is pretty great too.
Thought I would have enjoyed this more. However, the bizarre 10mins of "We Will Fall" taking up 1/3 of the runtime left a sour taste.
Thought I was listening to The Beatles or The Who in some parts. Quite enjoyed the rock opera story of it. Listening to the album on my earphones I wish the mono and stereo mix wasn't so jarring, that might have been an artistic choice but didn't work for me.
A few good songs with Bitter Sweet Symphony being top tier. Overall an alright album.
I can definitely see how this was a precursor to punk rock, but I didn't enjoy it much. None of the tracks really grabbed my attention.
A very enjoyable jazz orchestra album. The tracks are short and sweet, nothing overstays its welcome. I really enjoyed it.
I'm not really into R&B but found this to be a decent album. We Are Family, Lost in Music and He's the Greatest Dancer were the highlights.
I'm not a big fan of live albums and this one didn't change my mind. I would have liked to hear the instruments more but they are background noise to Sarah's singing. Lot of the songs sounded very similar and I got easily bored before the 20 track album had ended.
Couldn't even make it through the whole album, thought it was shite.
Quite mellow and chilled out. Thought it was good, gave it a couple of listens. Stupidity Tries was a highlight.
I don't have much of an affinity for Country music and this album didn't change that.
Thought some songs were okay but didn't really enjoy it.
I haven't really listened to much Radiohead, was a lot more instrumental than I expected. Thought it was okay, I may enjoy it more with subsequent listens.
This album is short and sweet, a great classic punk album. Highlight of the album was Pink Flag.
Album starts with a banger and doesn't quite reach that height again. Still I really enjoyed it and thought it was a great album overall.
Overall a weird but enjoyable album with a great variety of instruments and styles. The absolute classic tracks on this album are fantastic.
Liked the big singles from the album but overall thought it was just fine.
A really good funky ska-ish album. Enjoyed almost every song and will definitely listen to their other albums.
Youtube Music combined Born to Be With You with another Dion album called Streetheart. I did not like the former album, mostly very slow and soppy. Highlight of the album was Good Lovin' Man. I did enjoy the album Streetheart, had more of a rock n roll sound. However, that album still has a few soppy songs too.
Has a bit of a pop punk style to it which I liked in parts. But overall wasn't a big fan.
A super short album but had some enjoyable rock n roll. I'm not a fan of live albums but this one sounded quite balanced between the vocals and instruments.
"Drop the Pressure" was the highlight. Otherwise I found it a fairly forgettable album of background house music.
Enjoyed it more than I expected but each song and the album definitely over stays it's welcome. Wouldn't listen to it again.
I liked parts of the album but don't think I'd listen to it again, his warbly singing becomes tiresome. The opening track didn't start the album off well and should have been removed in favour of "The One You Love" which is far superior. Other highlights were "Little Sister" and "Waiting for a Dream"
Had not heard of her before but I ended up liking it a lot. "Crucify", "Precious Things" and "Leather" were my highlights.
Just like the name of the first track I also wondered "is this it?". That's a bit harsh because I did enjoy more than I disliked. I thought "Someday", "Last Nite", "Hard To Explain" and "Take It Or Leave It" were the best tracks.
A chilled out album that I thought was decent. "Heart Skipped A Beat", "Islands" and "Crystallised" were the highlights for me.
Had no heard this before but thought it was a fantastic bluesy rock album. So many great tracks, loved it. Highlights were "L.A. Woman", "L'America" and "Riders of the Storm".
Found it to be quite an interesting album that I ultimately liked. Not understanding the lyrics didn't take away my enjoyment of the album. I think the first half of the album is the stronger side. Highlights for me were "Nick" and "Soubour".
Didn't think it was good as their L.A Woman album but I still really liked this. "Break On Through", "The End" and "Light My Fire" were highlights of the album.
As others have said it's not as good as SFTD but I did really like it. Highlights for me were "Mexicola" and "Regular John".
Had a very mellow dream like sound to it which I enjoyed. I think I might like it more with some extra listens but it was quite nice as background music. Highlights were "Real Love" and "Silver Soul"
Had only heard the odd song from Simon and Garfunkel before and didn't particularly enjoy them. Unfortunately this album didn't change my mind. Highlights were "Baby Driver" and "Why Don't You Write Me".
What a fantastic short and sweet blues rock n roll album. Really enjoyed almost every song. Felt like I should have been listening to it in a smoke filled bar wearing a fedora. Highlights were "Blue Monday", "Reeling and Rocking" and "Blueberry Hill".
Quite a strange album, liked only "Hero Worship". Wasn't really for me.
This isn't Metallica's best album but its still pretty high up on my list. Could the album be shorter, yes. Would I want it shorter, hell no!
Not really my kind of music. Didn't like any song, sounded very repetitive.
The more I listened the more it grew on me. Might get a higher rating with a few more listens. Highlights were "This is Hardcore" and "I'm A Man".
Think I've listened to this four times already. His voice sounded like he smoked and drank his whole life but it fit the style and lyrics of the album perfectly. I really liked the darkness and melancholy of the album. Easily goes into a list of best albums I've ever heard. Highlights were "Steer Your Way", "You Want It Darker" and "It Seemed the Better Way".
"Hard to Handle" is the best song by far but I thought the rest of the album was alright.
The nicest thing that I could say about this album is randomly discovering the album art was an optical illusion. Unfortunately I thought all the songs were shite.
Found it quite chilled out but I didn't really like it. Not understanding the language feels like I'm missing out on a lot of the album's nuance.
Not usually that into R&B and thought this was okay. I think the songs just go on longer than they need to. "Shit, Damn, Motherfucker" could have been easily cut in half to make the same point. Highlight was "Brown Sugar".
Great album with so many good tracks Highlights were: With a little help from my friends Lucy in the sky with diamonds When I'm sixty four
I had heard her famous tracks like "What's Love Got to do with it" but never properly listened to her music. She has a great voice but it's quite a dated album.
Had not really heard these guys before but I really liked the bluesy rock style. Definitely will be listening to their other releases. The album flies by in 30mins and I really enjoyed it.
Hadn't heard anything from Dusty except the popular song or two. The album has a chilled out relaxed sound to it which I liked. Highlights were "Son of a Preacher Man" and "Don't Forget About Me".
I found very little to enjoy in this album.
Previously I had only heard "Another Brick In The Wall" but that was because of the cover by Korn! However, I was very impressed with the album, I've always enjoyed a good rock opera and this one is top class.
Adele has an amazing voice and I'm not usually into her music. However, I did like it more than I thought and when I am concentrating on the music I found I liked many more songs. Overall I thought it was decent. Highlights were "Hello", "Water Under the Bridge" and "Sweetest Devotion".
When "Bamboo Banga" started I thought I was going to hate this album. However, as the album progressed I found myself slowly enjoying it. I wouldn't listen to it again but overall I thought it was surprisingly decent. Highlights were "20 Dollar", Paper Planes" and "Come Around".
I'm don't particularly like Iggy Pop's music but because this is produced and composed by Bowie it had a more interesting sound. However, nothing stood out to me and I didn't really like most of the songs.
I like a bit of Rammstein and I can hear they've definitely taken inspiration from Laibach. I think the album is too long and the last third of is pretty awful. I swear it sounds like they're saying "I have not pooed" in the song "Herz-Felde". Highlight was "Leben - Tod"
Think I expected more rock from this album and instead got a mix with quieter ballad type songs. Highlights were "Beginning to see the Light" and "I'm Set Free"
Fantastic rock album, short and sweet. Must have listened to it about 4 times. Apart from "Bad Company" and "Can't Get Enough" they're fairly forgettable songs but that didn't stop me enjoying the album.
Only managed to listen to a quarter of the album, thought it was shite. What is this album doing on this list?
Album has an interesting mix of glam and the classic 80s rock sound. Overall thought it was decent album, might get an extra star with more listens. Was interesting to learn "Gunter glieben glauchen globen" came from "Rock Of Ages" because I always thought it was a weird way for The Offspring to start off "Pretty Fly For A White Guy". Highlights were "Rock Of Ages", "Rock Rock Till You Drop" and "Too Late For Love".
Wasn't really a fan of this. Best thing I can say is that it seemed alright as background music. Highlights were "Mr Disco" and "Vanishing Point".
Not really into folk rock but thought this was decent. It has a relaxed sound to it and I enjoyed more of the songs than I thought I would. Highlights were "Hoodoo Voodoo", "California Starts" and "Christ for President".
I love a good rock opera or concept album and thought this was really good. The first 7 tracks are especially strong, I just wish they didn't sound so much like The Beatles. Highlights were "Yes Sir, No Sir", "Some Mothers Son" and "Shangri-La"
Did not like this at all, was almost a mess of incoherent sounds. Perhaps this album did something revolutionary when it came out in the 70s but it just doesn't hold up.
Found this to be a very dull and boring album. It's not terrible but it's just not the type of music I enjoy.
There's not much to say about this, a Christmas album of mostly Christmas classics. The recordings sound pretty rough compared to modern standards. Everything is overplayed at this point so can't say I listened to the album properly.
I don't mind Coldplay too much, unfortunately their stuff is overplayed. However, apart from their singles I'm not sure I've ever properly listened to a Coldplay album. This debut album is pretty good, I liked a lot more of the tracks than I thought I would. But by the end I did get a little tired of the melancholy. Highlights were "Shiver", "Yellow" and "Spies".
I'm sounding like a broken record, but again I had not properly listened to Supergrass before. They have an interesting sound which means the album never became boring. I really liked it, will definitely listen to this again. Highlights were "Tonight", "Richard III" and "Cheapskate".
I love some classic British punk and this was no exception. It's less political and more silly but found that a refreshing change. Highlights were "Sometimes", "Peaches" and "Hanging Around".
This is an album I'll never listen to again, basically someone fucking about on a guitar for 30mins. While I did enjoy parts of the guitar work, the album as a whole was not that interesting. Highlights were "Hit it and Quit it" and "Maggot Brain".
Had never heard of these guys but I really enjoyed this. The prog rock sound on the album had an enjoyable funky sound. The album is bookended by two great tracks but "Roundabout" is definitely the highlight. It's a shame the rest of the album never quite reaches those heights.
Enjoyed this more than I thought I would, it has a nice mellow sound. Their voices work really well together. It's not something I'd listen to again but it was alright in the background.
Really enjoyed this album, has a great raw grunge sound to it. I don't know much about guitars but it sounded especially good to me! Definitely will give this a few more listens.
Finally some heavy metal! Pantera kind of passed me by in the 90s while I was in my Punk phase but I really enjoyed this. Some great riffs and a high level of anger/shouting throughout (what more could you need). The first 4 tracks are my highlights.
Overall quite a beautiful sounding album. The album switches between Jazzy songs to Folk tunes, I preferred the former. I found "Four Women" to be an especially powerful song. Highlights were "Either Way I Lose", "Break Down And Let It All Out" and "I Love Your Lovin' Ways".
I found it difficult to enjoy this album the first time I listened because I wasn't paying enough attention. On a second listen I realised it was far more interesting than initially thought. Especially after I read the background about the album. I think I'll like this album more and more with subsequent listens. It's got a really good production so everything is really clean and easy to hear. I listened to the "Deluxe Edition" to hear the bonus tracks and "The Recipe" is a fantastic track that should have been on the original. Highlights were "Backstreet Freestyle", "M.A.A.D City" and "Money Trees".
As soon as this album started I knew I wasn't going to like it, I found it to be very boring. On one of the public reviews on this site someone wrote, "So inoffensive it makes me want to go commit crimes just to make up for how fucking boring it is.". That is a bit harsh but not far off how I'm feeling.
Not a big reggae fan but found this to be a nice mellow album. Some of the songs seem to blend together because they sound so similar. I probably wouldn't listen to this album again. Highlights were "Concrete Jungle" and "High Tide or Low Tide".
I had never listened to a David Bowie album before but I really enjoyed this. I recognised a lot more songs than I thought I would. I found the first half of the album to be stronger than the second. Highlights were "Changes", "Light On Mars" and "Oh! You Pretty Things".
Never listened to a Beastie Boys album before but I recognised quite a few tracks. I thought it was pretty good overall, some great guitar riffs that work well with their rock rap style. Highlights were "Fight For Your Right", "No Sleep Till Brooklyn" and "Brass Monkey".
Had not heard any Jeff Beck before but I enjoyed the albums kind of blues-ish rock sound. So many of the tracks have some great guitar riffs, "Becks Bolero" is especially packed with them. Highlights were "Rock My Plimsoul", "I Ain't Superstitious" and "Hi Ho Silver Lining".
This is nowhere near as good as his second album 2001. I don't think it ages particularly well. I can understand the cultural significance of this album but apart from starting Snoop Dogg's career there wasn't much I liked on this album.
Not listened to the Pixies before but I enjoyed it more than I expected, they have an interesting style for the late 80s. The lyrics are not the strongest aspect of the album. A lot of them just end up repeat the same lines over and over again. Highlights were "Monkey Gone to Heaven" and "Debaser".
Overall I thought it was good but it didn't move me like his album "You Want It Darker", his voice and lyrics felt quite raw on that album. Although his gravelly voice really comes out in "Diamonds in the Mine". A very good album that I'd have not heard without this list. Highlights were "Avalanche", "Diamonds in the Mine" and "Joan of Arc".
Thought it was just okay, not many of the tracks stood out to me. Felt it was quite boring compared to their other albums. Highlights were "Drive My Car" and "Run For Your Life".
Thought it was okay, had some good tracks but many of the tracks sound quite similar. Highlights were "Separate And Ever Deadly" and "Only The Truth".
I love the heavy metal sound of Slipknot, the big drums and Corey Taylor's voice are amazing. This was never my favourite Slipknot album but it was better than I remembered. Highlights were "(sic)" and "Wait and Bleed".
I didn't like this album at first but felt there was something there, so I gave it another listen and I'm glad I did. I preferred the more electronic/psychedelic tracks and the longer songs were some of were my favourites. Highlights were "Each Time We Pass", "Opener" and "Ullswater".
