Lemmy sure sang about fucking a lot for a man with a face like a soldering bench

Inaccurate name

There’s longer tool songs than this album. Great little spike of angst.

Nearly flawless, no skips

I found this more exciting blues than the earlier stones album. And great vocals from Rod.

I enjoyed "almost blue" - his voice is a bit less affected here and has room to breathe. It's almost the oppposite of something like "the loved ones" with the crazy sampled orchestration. The album overall has pretty drastic shifts in tone but flows well overall.

Didn’t know this was the coconut and can’t live guy. Interesting overdubs, on the verge of experimental. Loved the bass on jump into the fire.

Lots of childhood memories. Love what tims vocals bring to this album, but I understand the dynamics where he couldn’t bring himself to be a supporting character in his little brothers band.

Slow, and kind of a weak voice. Thought it would pick up with “Macbeth” but his voice maintained the weakness even when the band added some edge. Not a fan.

Great songs, but I still can’t stand Morrissey’s voice. Bass is oddly loud and bouncy considering the mood of the album. Some interesting production with the vocal doubling and synth strings.

Found myself listening a lot to Brett Anderson’s vocal squeak on every note. It takes some getting used to. Cool fuzz guitar work and chord parts. Animal Nitrate is a banger.

Really enjoyed this, very experimental sounding psych rock with in my mind clear beatles influence. Have to listen again now knowing it’s all one story.

Not really my style but enjoyed a lot. The hits were all worthy, interested to notice lots of live instruments and non traditional rnb production. Not the biggest fan of the skits.

Loved the beach boys psych era wall of sound, aggressive guitars doing everything short of distortion contrasting a singer who, not to be cruel, had a pooh bear husk to his voice.

Not for me. Oldest sounding band forever, can’t believe they were young when recording.

Loved when the keyboards augmented Lanegand voice. Really atmospheric and quite quiet for how I remember the era.

Pleasingly sneery. Liked the punk and noise elements. Hear a lot of the vines in it.

Fuck yeah.

Unbelievable amount of singles. Weird to listen and notice he’s kind of a weak singer that brings incredible energy with a great band. Obviously a classic.

I can see the influence, and love the crooning. Not so crazy on the poetry.

I feel context is important with this one. I didn’t know that it was a three track solo demo by a guy who just got out of a mental home. Having said that, it sounds just like you would imagine.

Short and interestingly noisy. Have preferred other albums by then with more actual “songs” but I guess it’s at least pure.

Great, shorter than I imagined. Daltrey often doesn’t sing, even though he clearly can.

Dug the backing vocals, seems a lot of sneer in this list…

Easy listening. Or as much as it can be with that voice.

Liked this one a lot. Emotion and humour and surprise. Even the instrument introduction came out as funny. Just wish that he’d learned to properly fry scream on side 2!

Great, but makes me feel like Michael Bolton from office space

Just slow

Kinda fun and soulful but lacked a certain something to hook me in

Obviously brilliant, but they’re best? Well, my kids love it. Still a sgt peppers stan though.

Kinda warbled love poetry, less melodic than the smiths stuff. Kinda liked some of the production. Incel vibe on some of the lyrics.

Never noticed the auto tune until this time around. But I guess that was the price of Anthony’s singing. Still has great Melodies, their third best album.

Sorta more art noise with a guitar minimal, percussion bent. I thought it had enough attitude to be Japanese, if that means anything.

Loved the extended version. Learning it was all made with vinyl samples blew my son away.

Like hearing very hip hop track from the 90s expanded into songs. Loved the songs more than the guitar jams.

Less melodic and more chaotic than I was expecting. Felt like the intersection of punk and later art noise bands.

Kinda white for a black band. Not my thing.

Sorta light and poppy as I remember. Backing singer is out of tune a lot.

So slick and well crafted I thought they couldn’t have formed on their own.

Raw. Amazing playing. Great choruses and structure. Emotional. Loved it.

Smooth - loved the vocal numbers with nick cave and Jarvis cocker most. Interestingly complex jazz at the end considering how chill the rest is.

Lovely recordings, sweet harmonies, didn’t grab me like I hoped

Enjoyable ambience that I sadly now associate with stock music due to how many times it has been ripped off

Loved his voice. Crazy how similar in tone and range he was to his son he had nothing to do with.

Really was quite amazing by Ian gillains vocal range. Surprising deep purple don’t get the props led zeppelin and sabbath do.

Really appreciated the ambition on this

Just sort of sweet light folk, some times it gets a bit more uptempo for variation which helps…

Really enjoyed the jammy vocal layering. Prefer this to the way Chet faker does it.

Classic, especially with Thundercats additions

Sort of folk jazz with some English earnestness. Some really epic upright bass playing.

Great vocal range, vocals maybe way too high in the mix. Sort of big band jazz.

Apex level smooth

Cool attitude, nice post punk sort of feel, but a bit more minimal than my taste.

Sort of a hodgepodge exploration of the singers admittedly great vocal range but imo a tough listen. Lots of innuendo and cheeky lyrics.

Enjoyable, liked the wu tang guest tracks.

Proggier and more intricate than I expected. Really well recorded, great flow. Songs didn’t really jump out individually but definitely changed my scope of what I thought this band was.

Quite a stripped down guitar album, more than I was expecting at the time. His voice was showing some age, but still lots of variety

More stripped down than later stuff, hangs so much on Byrnes voice. Great bass though.

Voice has all of the ability that it does later, production is nowhere near what Ronson adds. Enjoyed the lyrics and the cheek, insane that she was 20.

Best debut from a second singer?

Light and dreamy but not as lush as the other album I heard. Didn’t give the emotional punch.

Wish this style of rhyming had been more popular. Intelligent and old school.

I know this record is important but I kinda hated it. The bandsaw vocals, thin production and terrible bass playing made this a tough listen, and I needed a lot of imagination to picture the live energy.

Really nice sounding record considering the technology. I finished thinking I missed the edge and scream of little Richard etc, like it was a bit safe.

Lots of range, even some soul. Neil’s voice less offensive than usual!

A few cool bits of production.

All my life I thought John was the best beatle. But after listening to this, I think it was actually Paul.

So much depth, some really pretty moments too. Had never listened all the way and loved it more than I thought I would.

Really quite enjoyable instrumentation, particularly the synth wobble bass and calypso percussion

Enjoyable if I’m in the right mood. Found the gibberish lyrics kinda grating.

Didn’t realise it’s all one narrative, kinda cool even if I usually find lower class English stories depressing af

Long album but great pace, esp with comfortably numb coming in towards the end

Great songs, interesting recording. Lots of plectrum noise.

Kinda boring except for the sonic experiments

Alt country needs the best lyrics or vocals in the world to earn a pass and these are just ok.

Good bit of variety

Can hear so many modern prog bands here

Classic and so influentual, trad percussion plus metal gave us slip knot.

Just a beautiful album with so much depth, hooks and range.

Amazing musicianship, genuine style.

Hard to seperate from the man.

More attitude than most punk

Full of classics but couldn’t get past the Chester Bellow

Still on my playlist today. Timeless.

great bass playing, full of classics, and before what i think is their best album. shame they didnt fire on as many cylinders afterwards.

Enjoyable instrumentation, voice a bit straight forward melodically. Clearly a Bergman fan.

Love the grace slick tracks, blues stuff not so much

Another classic, but a softer jammier album than it was in my memory

Obviously have a lot of love, hard to believe they went this out there with that much attention on them.

I’ve heard this album a lot but it doesn’t hit me, I call this genre claratyne house, because it’s all allergic white dudes.

Listening to this album I better understand why my metal loving friends wished nu metal bands would go harder.

I wish his voice had more variation, silky as It is

I think these guys are underrated as musicians

Enjoy the minimalism but the songwriting chops feel like they don’t come til later

Owe these guys heaps for rhcp and songs like damaged goods still get me going

Pretty great mix of goth and blues and rock, enjoyed.

Decent blues rock, some really impressive guitar playing, but some so so lyrics from Jim

Enjoyable pop, nothing jumped out

Great album, good balance of jams and bangers

Love the title track and guitar but I’ll never love mustaine’s gargle

Tough one for me. Interesting to hear how low her natural voice is on the filler tracks. Saga more interesting than the music.

Got a layered beach boys vibe, surprisingly textured and complex. Great great bass, even though his voice is kinda weak.

The 80s production and backing vocals really suit his style. Really got into it.

Brilliant, and timeless

Didn’t hold up as well as I hoped, although I admire how liam can get so many syllables out of the word “shine”

Sounds like standard jazz to me…

Just such damn great writing, and I love the live participation

Loved but production is so treble and cjorusy

Enjoyed the feel but found myself irritated by the looseness, like I was straining for the great moments to break through

Great guitar, less great singing. Old before his time.

It’s sort of histrionic and the lyrics are a bit silly but I got into the proto-elo vibe

Really love this era of reverb soaked harmonised pop and it’s probably because of David Lynch

Unique, but I got tired of the falsetto vocal. Felt like it needed visuals.

Enjoyed the jump in complexity, although still not where it would get to later.

Surprisingly deep and varied, ozzy sounds huge.

Really enjoyed when it got a bit darker and eerier mid album. Great atmospheric production.

Liked the new wave and hearing her with a band

Preferred the production but songs got weaker towards the end

Great playing, technical, epic but left me kinda empty

Love the storytelling, the humour, the production

A hard listen with small nuggets resembling proto industrial, I guess

So sloppy I kinda hoped this was a mental asylum recording like skip Henderson

I don’t get it. Sounded like amateur ramblings.

Underrated band that weirdly didn’t have the staying power of Elbow. As good? Yeah probably.

Was not expecting soft jazz

These guys really churned out the work. Loved the big band touches. And the long versions.

Slick trip hop/intellectual rap, nice international samples, clever lyrics

I just love the djing and this style of sample. And figuring out what exactly flav does.

Kinda hilarious to compare this record to the precision of what the beach boys were making at the time. But the swagger is all there.

The clever rhymes come so thick and fast you have to rewind

Legendary and relentless

Crazy complexity for such cheesy songs

I found this more exciting blues than the earlier stones album. And great vocals from Rod.

Pretty interesting and complex from a former punk bass player.

Not the best blur album, but still super enjoyable

I probably prefer the later albums with more lush instrumentation and harmonies, as his voice is sort of lispy on this. Still some great lyrics and tunes.

All the soft loud, trilling, whispering and cheesiness I’ve always disliked about Mariah for a whole album

Definitely preferred the originals over the standards

Impressive how tight the guitar and drums are and how loose the bass is and it still works.

I’ve been sleeping on Karen o as a singer.

The smoothest

So self serious. But ahead of its time.

Short and sweet. Really a surprised by how feminine his range sounded when younger.

Was really impressed even though the synths sound so basic. Way ahead of its time, although the first track kinda sucks

Some great production, but the lyrics of a spoilt toddler

Contrary to belief, goths are some of the funkiest people out there

Enjoyable, always wished it was a bit heavier

I’d never listened all the way through, but that’s definitely the way to do it

Long and kind of interesting, especially the really long bit with the molestation. Sloppier in timing and pitch than I expected. An achievement though.

Such beautiful arrangements like an old movie, just can’t get over that belted cheesy delivery

Joe Rogan somehow means I can’t listen

If this was what country was like I’d listen to country

Jammier and simpler than it sounds.

Industrial art noise, really not my thing

Great playing, listenable for prog, didn’t set my heart on fire

Honestly seemed fairly generic, could have been Sza or FKA twigs

Kinda my dads blues rock band, fairly shakey singing and some decent tunes but not inspiring

I love the structure and felt the journey of the album particularly with the reprise, but didn’t grab me as much as I’d hoped.

Maybe their darkest and sparsest album but still with the great dynamics and guitar creativity that made me love them

Aside from the dumb lazy religious track, this album is just legendary.

Really great considering where rock was at when they wrote it

An all time classic, I still can’t believe the chutzpah of eddies vocal sprinklings and Jeff’s fret less bass at their young age. The confidence of youth.

Full of great tracks but damn do I hate the skits and filler.

Amazing voice but the band confuses me whether it’s rock or pop sometimes

I guess this is almost experimental for this band?

Some nice complex arrangements but imo a little overrated

Pretty nice sounding considering how loud they were. I’m far more inclined to call them a punk band after listening all the way through.

Lively, smooth, not gangster. I miss hip hop being like this.

Sort of forgettable shoegaze drone saved by a bit of vocal harmony and occasional heaviness

Not much more to be said than it’s a shame they didn’t write more music

Puerile revenge fantasies

Nicely experimental given the era

Great but I really like the later stuff with more harmony and instrumentation better

Would like more without the jello biafra warble of the singer every time

Really cool, stylish sound with attitude for the time and great harmonies

Good but just sounds so old!

Loved it. Great discovery and so unique.

Sort of like a bright Johnny cash?

Really great, and surprisingly riffy for acoustic guitar. Little experimental bits were unexpected but evocative.

Classic, and can really still hear bowies backing vocals

Perfect album.

Sort of an odd duck with the religious allegory, flute and smatterings of prog. But it all comes together well.

Doesn’t hold up, given how much I used to thrash it. But clear that what makes this band great is all three are pulling their weight musician wise.

One of the best instrumental albums I’ve heard.

Better than I thought it would be.

Odd and soulful and sometimes meandering but funky

Energetic. Bluesy and kinda funky but also loose.

Virtuoso playing and singing with weirdly inconsistent song writing.

Not much more to say other than eddies tone makes you feel like he’s in the room there playing through a small amp.

Enjoyable but his voice is just so affected…

Boring folk?

L carried by that sandpaper voice for sure

Was expecting to not enjoy this country blues but he’s a pretty witty lyricist

Great, and the skits were at least musical.

Of its time but interesting to see the more traditional feminism in the lyrics of its era

Big production, tiny voice

Some great moments but a little uneven.

Lots of good, lots of stoner jamz

Just lots of jazzy sort of dischordant jams. Had its moments.

Aside from the famous tracks I enjoyed the lead singing from keef, wished there was more lead guitar.

Singer has heaps of range, some of the keyboards are, as they themselves put it, “juicyfruit”

If you’re not swept up by the lyrics it kinda falls flat. Maybe just the morning I’m having.

The mix of rap and soul really made this album feel on the cusp of a big change, like it was. Also sick bass.

Sorta dorky but fun. Backing vocals aren’t exactly Simon and Garfunkel.

Perfect from start to finish

Some moments but Bruce’s wobbly howling doesn’t grab me like it should

Fairly limp country with some nice harmonies.

Punk without the energy

Enjoyable esp with the eeriness that creeps in

Lemmy sure sang about fucking a lot for a man with a face like a soldering bench

Some lame lyrics and sparks of cool production. Overrated.

Stellar guitar and drum work but not as good as ritual

Dominated by jaco, just bass playing like no one else can.

A lot of experimentation only possible with a band this skilled

Almost entirely sad content about a guy scared of dying which was kind of a surprise

Helped a lot by the guest instruments and bvs

So fun and timeless

Loved the atmosphere and felt like adding melody from the sparseness

Needs the lush instruments

Sadly I found it dull and monotonous

Enjoyable folky soul

Enjoyably chaotic

Great energy but could do with less stoner jam outro

Nearly flawless, no skips

Overrated and boring.

Maybe too intellectual for me, but compelling

Can’t listen due to rogan

Cool background jazz that never calls too much attention to itself

Boring jazz

Loved the emotional intensity and the seemingly twisting chord lines and Melodies. Too short.

Great band but no certified bangers

Haunting, great playing. Political.

Timeless

Some nice Melodies in that dirty 2000 brit fashion

Love his guitar, less excited about the shoegaze slacker singing

Kinda love the idea of a band that only does epic buildups

Was really shocked by the yodelling

Inaccurate name

I just love him

This album will always be funereal for me

Stylish but kinda hollow for me

Really fantastic clear voice, harmonised guitars… sappy tho!

It’s a unique jam phase for a band but I feel like the songwriting came later

I don’t get it. Rubbish.

God this is a dumb band. And a dumb album. But not as bad as I expected? Except the outro. Ugh.

Just a flawless album. Not a bad track on it.

Not their jazziest but one of their most consistent

Proggy

I loved how it went from 70s French to soundscape and indie.

All of the four tracks available sounded pornographic, regardless of scene description

Pure and great sounding, but I missed the solos from other bands in this genre

Can’t help but enjoy the vocal histrionics

Interesting level of cross cultural hip hop, considering the British origin. Really enjoyed the production.

A great soundscape with even greater songs punctuating

Blocked on spotify

Some nice tracks but his mid tempo nasal delivery can be a bit samey

It’s a classic but it was interesting to hear all the guitar mistakes listening closely.

Some cool sketches and rad playing but all over the place

I mean…

Interesting post punk similar to at the drive in

Kinda ponderous but still more listenable than her sister

Stylistically iconic, crazy how little you can hear cymbals on this whole album, makes the production feel so sparse.

He was sad but, he rocked too.

Amazing bass, and great energy from the performance. Was weird that the signature crowd part was a failure but kept in.

Raw and real. But lacking in tunefulness.

Just amazing start to finish

Classics but you know, still piano ballads

So cheesy but so damn good

Thought I’d hate it but the humour and gothiness pushed me through

Timeless, brilliant, great production also.

Cool cafe sort of music but doesn’t grab me. Don’t get the hype on Carlos’ playing.

Bonafide start to finish classic, actually the best grunge band.

Couldn’t listen

Really no weak points.

Not their finest due to the recording quality. They improved massively later.

Slacker indie country - I remember hearing these guys and wishing it was Gomez

Really liked the mellotron playing, and love the more lush arrangements with harmonies

Classic and nostalgic but man I have never heard such stuff drumming

I love trip hop but this is more 90s cafe music, didn’t make me feel anything

Falls off at the end but enough bangers

So many surprising moments and depth.

Better production than others

Groundbreaking and amazing particularly with how Trent’s production skills skyrocketed

His lyrics hit me like few others. And if this is the start of his weird cave marimba percussion then it’s my favourite era.

Beautiful without being overwrought. Becks seachange and Jose Gonzalez owe a lot.

Boring 90s solo indie girl stuff

There’s longer tool songs than this album. Great little spike of angst.

Incredibly strong opening even if the album falls away in quality at the end.

I loved the soundtrack feel and instrument experimentation.

What more can be said. The production is dated but the sound is so distinctive and the themes so diverse.

The horns and arrangement lift it above others of its genre even if I found it a bit samey

Totally underrated in terms of songwriting, even if things fall off on the end of the album.

If rap went nowhere since 79 except adding redneck guitar

A little bit African a little bit low fi a lot bit soundtrack

Great voice but honestly bored me

So damn tight!

A really great melody writer and an album that improves towards the end

The way they are able to shape noise into movement means there’s moments where it all comes together and makes sense.

Love the prog, the vocals from may are just so so, surprised how few singles are there.

Insane voice, and interesting in that English folk tale style storytelling

Enjoyed way more than I thought I would.

Punk sneer, grooves and surprising level of chops. Makes for a really captivating sound.

The type of lame shoegaze I can’t get into, because it never goes anywhere

The tightness and musical skill already puts them above most punk bands of the era

Gloriously gay with such distinctive production

Flawless, and impossible to copy

Moody post punk rhythmic noodling. Some cool song structure.

Stressful half classical prog

I never appreciated it enough at the time

It’s really not my thing, but it is sweet

I’m really struck by how metronomic and precise they are live, this is almost like a studio recording with live acoustics.

I never knew how amazing young bbs voice was

This must have been before his voice became the meme he was known for

Semi experimental post punk with some so so live tracks

Somewhat random art noise that didn’t excite me

Great power but the autotune was kind of a let down, and was kinda underwhelmed with the string arrangements.

Classic, iconic, great bg listen.

What more can be said? Still classic.

Dreary alt country and Lo fi jangle

Somewhat average rnb helped by guests like paak

Much more listenable than their 1989 release, and it has Jesus built my hotrod

He really can sing, but it’s a little too white and soft for me

Nothing standout for me

Fantastic although not lars best work

Elvis just always sounds the same to me, but this one has Alison which is a pretty memorable tune

Was ready to dismiss as southern fried rock but the storytelling and lyrics really are a cut above.

Sounds suspringly good considering the low fi recordings. But the songs aren’t as memorable.

Couldn’t listen due to blocked on spotify

Enjoyably weird multi genre space funk with great bass

I’ve grown up and realised that I underrated Paul massively

The sample choices and guests elevated it.

I love it except for the simultaneous vocal takes. The instrumentation and concept is amazing though.

Seems really innovative in terms of style, but what is with the hoedowns?

Better and more metal than I realised these guys were capable of

It’s a Kate bush album? Airy and a bit cinematic and 80s ish?

Just so damn light and folksy and sparse

Some classics, but bonos sincere yelping can grate in this much later context

Dreamy sad Las Vegas soundtrack music

Cool, and diverse in style, but of its time.

Iconic and brilliant. But obviously only the ground work for what they would really do.

Epic and still so english

Crazy to me how much sloppiness there is in the drums, but the guitar is always rock solid. Defs some indulgent moments from Mick

The first tastes of something more but I’ll take the white album

Lacks a bit of the spark and danger of the Beatles, and they don’t sing nearly as well

One hell of an album of bangers.

Way punkier in the later half than I expected. Evolutionary.

A nearly flawless album.

So fully formed even at this stage

Fairly standard country to my ears

Irish music with a hint of punk, extended tracks are far more traditional

Super heart felt but I feel like he hits the same voice crack every note.

I tend to agree with the interviews calling it a bore…

Weird experimental proto electronic punk that I appreciate rather than enjoy

Enjoyed the proto metal vibes and of course the drumming

Some really beautiful lush moments

Amazingly skilled vocalist, probably a shame he had to live in princes shadow

Some great funk, and some cheesy porn music too

Interesting experiments but needed guest vocals, and better when it does. Also some sick session bass.

Cinematic, slow, like the slower gorillaz tracks. But enjoyable.

Obviously awesome but shit recording, no bass and drums sometimes are just bad

Proof voices are hereditary

Some sophisticated song structure but such a downer

Lame jazz

Just an endless moody stonery dirge, but some of the changes are really powerful when they break up the repetition

I prefer this Irish meets soul take on their sound to the synth of later, a lot more songwriting and interesting takes on manhood

Was never my favourite, continues not to be.

Unexpectedly good, skits actually match with the song, different genres and even social commentary beyond gangster

They were so good once. The right balance of pomp, heaviness and complexity.

The usual off kilter detached cool mush, didn’t stand out for me

Some depth and even politics!

Classic although it’s crazy how shredded she will let her voice get compared to say son of a preacher man

Spanish cafe music to my uncultured ears

Almost hated it but it becomes almost proto industrial rammstein meets Frankie goes to Hollywood.

Karen O sure does a lot with an overdrive mic. Loved the guitar tone, wish they had bass.

I miss this sort of rnb, the mix of live and samples and understated vocal

I liked that he brought back theme reprises from what’s going on, but it is kinda funny to hear him go so sexual after the social conscience.

Beautiful, complex and lyrically complex

Just boring jams where cannabis does the heavy lifting

Funny, soulful, jazzy

So simple but done so well. Astbury does the inter lyric yowl better than almost everyone.

Irish folk with some interesting rock syncopation moments

Slick, lush and interesting, in spite of the weird young conservative lyrics

A good punk band with great marketing.

A proper head trip and descent into madness

Is this the best pogues? Probably.

I guess not everything French is worth exporting

Interesting in that there’s two concepts, but still plenty of filler. Ok for a pop artist?

Easy to forget all the production novelty here with todays hip hop

Just a really classy player and singer

Really good bridge to thrash from classic rock

As full of 90s cafe jams as actual songs, I guess it was innovative at the time?

One of my favourite albums about your place in the universe

The sex stuff was like being read porn by zippy from rainbow at times. The rock and punk stuff was better.

Cool 80s funk, like Duran Duran but less edgy if that’s possible

Like a slightly cheerier, bluesier sisters of mercy

Obviously classic but can’t help but wonder what it would sound like with modern amps and recording.

Standard smooth sax jazz?

Some bangers but the diversity of styles doesn’t really work for me

I don’t rate his rapping, and his singing can be borderline harsh.

Classic, diverse maybe a little long

Foundational and varied

Legendary with sick bass

Love the Kim tracks and the vibe but just not for me

Proto metal blues with a bit more soul

Flawless, and it’s a shame we didn’t get this sort of classic production on later MJ work

Stylish pre punk with some great bass and inventive rhythms

Nice recording, not sure if the songs match the hype

Just so much prog

Important to punk but maybe not to me

Really interesting arrangements and Latin flair

Brilliant but over so soon!

Proto industrial with some sick riffs

Sounds like Elvis to me…

Crazy how much of his legacy is on this one album

Kind of a ln attitude laden rockabilly b52s meets Violent Femmes vibe

Arty sneery post punk record collector stuff

Wobbly moddy English late 80s pop

Still love all the excess and fun they’re having genre wise

More art punk

I miss this era

Clearly Tom waits north star

Beautiful opening, still wish he wasn’t singing

Almost a full album of singles

Better musicians than I was expecting. Has lost its shock.

I really hated this era of rnb, so it colours my review

Iconic Americana, but had me wishing it was the beach boys instead

I was not expecting weird samples and a tubular bells esque soundtrack

Kinda dreary except for riders, which has the dreariest name, ironically.

Dreary

Varied, but weirdly nervous

Iconic stuff but with todays ears I find the production tiring

Undeniable classic but also it’s true that disc two is weak.

Weirder and more discordant than the skinny boy whining I was expecting

Crazily self assured album for her age. Even so far as to make the breathiest song first.

Was expecting more wasted waif pop rather than the dueling swagger that comes later in the album, although last shadow puppets do it way better

I never realised all the samplers in the 90s only owned one album

Genius, brilliant, my only criticism is that Brian didn’t get to record it this way when his voice was younger.

I always thought it was too cheesy, and I still do, but just on great singles it deserves stars

A very raw album with only samples as backing, which allows you to extra concentrate on Dizzy’s high pitched, gasping flow.

The most I’ve been able to enjoy a country album

Lush, pretty, lasting, not quite as good as want one

Twangy electric blues country

The downfall of a great musician chapter 1

Almost stressful in arrangements, without enough relief

Too many classics and famous samples galore.

Sad, haunting and pretty

Musical half erect edging. They muse be able to tour endlessly as their singer so rarely passes a droning mumble. Good drums?

Some daft soft dance?

If this was the dawn of her eager era it’s about as edgy as a meringue

Classic and maybe a classic case of peaking too early

I still heard new stuff even this time around

Supreme white boy, but at least some variety

People made fun of them before this album

Perfection. Yes, even the warbling.

Perfectly fine sneery art punk

Admit it. A lot of the songs on this album sound just like “cars”

Bold, weird and confident

I feel like this was just fulfilling yearning from a missing stone roses reunion

Really stylish and funky synth pop

Beautiful and poignant
