Why is this on the list?

Why is there a cat screaming in the first song? He was horribly out of tune in the bride. Why is this on the list?

Great album

Dear doctor is the best song

Not a fan, no good tracks. If I wanted to kill myself id just think about my life.

A middling album that showcases the lyrical talent and, at the time, uniquely bilingual rapping of the group. Unfortunately does not have insane in the membrane so it only rates a 3

This was like stepping into a time machine. I loved this album in 1998 and I love it now. Unfortunately I don’t really do hallucinogens anymore so it didn’t quite fuck as hard. Sexy boy will forever be one of my favs!!!

It’s like a bunch of asshole 14 year olds ran into a McGuire store and hit random on 3 of the 36 Casios and I can’t find which ones to shut off. Gross

I enjoyed it. It was nice to hear the old songs again. I was confused why the album cover didn’t have raisins on it though.

Imma be honest. Other than tainted love I was not feeling the first half of this album. Then came say hello, wave goodbye. That was artistic brilliance. Unfortunately, no other song came close to giving me downstairs tingles like say hello. That song is a virus and I’m in love with the infection.

Solid songs and a decent album that I wouldn’t mind listening to again

Not bad. Not really my style but enjoyable

Not terrible, kind of like early bill Joel and Irish dido teamed up with the power of drum machines and synthesizers. Nu wave at its middlest.

I wish I liked the pixies. I feel like I’m supposed to like the pixies. Why can’t I get into it? Is there something wrong with me, will I never find musical love?

Why is there a cat screaming in the first song? He was horribly out of tune in the bride. Why is this on the list?

Oh wow this hit so hard today! That arrangement of girl from ipanema is perfection! All stars!

Good album. Very easy listen. Not my fav Tom petty but really good

I enjoyed the songs with lyrics. Def not my fav Bowie album

It was……interesting. Not really my style

I love Jerry Lee Lewis! But with all the girls screaming really hurts the quality.

I love this album! It’s like a musics sushi roll of funk! That smooth sultry voice is the best spicy tuna you’re gonna find and the bass is the unagi of phat beats. Topping it off with the horns coming at you like little masago balls of joy. 12 stars!

I liked it. I didn’t love it. I liked it more than I didn’t though

Thank you 1001albums for showing me the majesty of Animal Collective. They have somehow learned how to turn my idyllic hopes for my childrens futures into song! It’s what I imagine charging a spirit bomb feels like. How three people?(One is listed as a panda bear) managed to harness the power of hope and weaponize it into synth folk pop is flabbergastery of the highest order. I wonder if this is what saint walker felt when charging his ring? Anyway check out merriweather post pavilion if you want to feel better about literally everything in the multiverse.

I’m not sure who thought it was a good idea to put Elvis Costello doing David Bowie impressions for a Cure album on this list, but thanks! I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would.

Not too shabby

Good stuff!

Not a fan. Maybe because it’s 30 years later but the message seems muddled at best

I really liked it at first but it started to get repetitive with the beats.

Please stop giving me morrisey!

I really dug this album. It was so peaceful and dreamy.

It was good for background music

Did not care for this one

Eh. No thank you

I like

I liked it a lot but the songs were really really long

It’s good

Two buffalo girls gets two stars

The album ever!

No thank you

I felt this

Why is this on the list?

Not bad

Perfect!!!

I loved this album

Gross

Couldn’t listen
