Make Yourself by Incubus

First Incubus album I owned, and probably still their best, even though I’m partial to S.C.I.E.N.C.E.

1-Star Albums (1)

All Ratings (117)

Ten by Pearl Jam
Oct 14 2022

Three songs already liked from the album (Even Flow, Alive and Jeremy) added Once, Black and Porch. All other songs weren’t bad, no disappointments

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Oct 15 2022

Two songs already liked on Spotify before listening (Scar Tissue and Californication). Know a few will be liked for sure, like Around the World, Parallel Universe, Otherside and Get on Top. Feels like after the first 6 songs the rest of the album is a write off (except Road Trippin’) Purple Stain would have been better as an instrumental Disliked: Right on Time Hated: I Like Dirt Great band with a terrible frontman

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Oct 15 2022

Not really listened to much Elliot Smith in the past, he’s one of those artist I keep meaning to check out. No Spotify likes previously on this album. Didn’t think I’d have be contemplating Søren Kierkegaard on the weekend. Liked: Speed Trials, Alamada, Ballard of Big Nothing, Between the Bars,

Oct 16 2022

Mostly a covers album but Cash’s vocals really give these songs a really different feel to them. Love his cover of Hurt and Personal Jesus and the original song The Man Comes Around

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Oct 18 2022

I didn’t expect to enjoy this one, at first I thought his style was too monotonous but I really vibed out with this one

Little Earthquakes by Tori Amos
Oct 19 2022

The first real masterpiece I’ve discovered on this list.

Oct 20 2022

I never really understood the appeal of The Hives (and The Strokes) but there are some catchy songs here

Skylarking by XTC
Oct 23 2022

Stylish but the only read stand out for me was Dear God

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Oct 24 2022

War Dogs is such a great song. I also like Paranoid and Iron Man, but not sure if I've heard the rest of the album before. Musically; this is a great album, I probably would prefer listening to this album without Ozzy singing, and just enjoy the music.

S&M by Metallica
Oct 25 2022

Amazing album, the only Metallica album I still listen to.

Make Yourself by Incubus
Oct 26 2022

First Incubus album I owned, and probably still their best, even though I’m partial to S.C.I.E.N.C.E.

Oct 27 2022

Why Tainted Love is by far the standout from this album/band, this was a great listening experience.

Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones
Oct 29 2022

Not a fan of the blues style here.

Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Oct 30 2022

I'm Glad, Zig Zag Wanderer and Sure 'Nuff 'n' Yes, I do are standouts on this album

Foo Fighters by Foo Fighters
Nov 01 2022

The back story of this album is heartbreaking, but Foo Fighters went on to be just as big as Nirvana.

Medúlla by Björk
Nov 02 2022

I really need to listen to some more trip-hop, it is aesthetically pleasing to my ears

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Nov 09 2022

Wild World and Father and Son are truly iconic songs, Cat Stevens created a beautiful album that is still well worth listening to.

Mott by Mott The Hoople
Nov 10 2022

All the Way from Memphis is the only stand out song here.

Nov 16 2022

So many good memories from this album. Wonderwall, Champagne Supernova and Don't Look Back in Anger still in high rotation.

25 by Adele
Nov 17 2022
Brothers by The Black Keys
Nov 19 2022

Great album, but Howlin' for You is the true standout

Melody A.M. by Röyksopp
Nov 20 2022

decent muzak, but not my style

Melodrama by Lorde
Nov 29 2022

Never really paid much attention to Lorde before, but this album slaps!

The Clash by The Clash
Dec 09 2022

I like the rockability nature of these punk songs.

Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves
Dec 10 2022

great voice and songwriter, but not a fan of the style

Vespertine by Björk
Dec 11 2022

I have the album Medúlla generated for me very recently, so can't tell if it is fatigue from Björk music or if that other album was better.

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Dec 13 2022

funky background muzak

Repeater by Fugazi
Dec 18 2022

Turnover, Repeater and Blueprint were good songs

Mama's Gun by Erykah Badu
Dec 19 2022

Super stylish R&B album.

Imperial Bedroom by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Dec 21 2022

Standouts include Beyond Belief and Man Out of Time

It's A Shame About Ray by The Lemonheads
Dec 22 2022

I like their style, but every song felt too similar to get any appeal from this album

Drunk by Thundercat
Dec 24 2022

Oh my god that's some funky shit!

Suede by Suede
Dec 25 2022
Jan 06 2023

At times Cornershop sounds like Eels and I'd rather listen to them. Also prefer the Norman Cook remix of Brimful of Asha more than the original

At Budokan by Cheap Trick
Jan 07 2023

Not a fan of Cheap Trick, they have one good song, I don't care about a live performance.

...Baby One More Time by Britney Spears
Jan 08 2023

Nothing against Britney, plus there are some iconic songs on this album, but Max Martin doesn't write good lyrics, catchy songs yes, but those lyrics are cringe.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Jan 12 2023
Jan 13 2023

Not really a Devo fan, but Uncontrollable Urge and their cover of (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction were the standouts.

Os Mutantes by Os Mutantes
Jan 15 2023

Would enjoy this more if I was high

Cafe Bleu by The Style Council
Jan 16 2023

I like the instrumental tracks, but don't think Paul Weller's vocals did this any justice.

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Jan 17 2023

She is iconic but not found any country music I liked...also WTF was Traveling Man

This Is Fats Domino by Fats Domino
Jan 18 2023

Iconic singer, Blueberry Hill the obvious hit from the album

Parklife by Blur
Jan 30 2023

I never really got into Blur, I think Parklife and Girls & Boys are decent songs, but not for me.

Hejira by Joni Mitchell
Jan 31 2023

Great album, even if I had to search elsewhere for it because it's not on Spotify.

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Feb 01 2023

Dusty has a great voice, her cover of Lesley Gore's You Don't Own Me is good, but a little too stripped back to what I want from that song.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Feb 03 2023

There isn't much of the hits from Fleetwood Mac here

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Feb 15 2023

I'm not high enough for this

Southern Rock Opera by Drive-By Truckers
Feb 16 2023

Should have just listened to Lynyrd Skynyrd

The Chronic by Dr. Dre
Feb 17 2023

Not really a big fan of hip-hop, but I have to appreciate an album like this, it was a landmark piece that pathed the way for the 'Gangsta rap' scene in the 90s

Sign 'O' The Times by Prince
Feb 18 2023

I like Prince's voice but can't say any of these songs stood out to me.

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading
Feb 19 2023

Great singer, but all songs felt too much the same

Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Feb 21 2023

If you told me this album came out in the 80's I would assume you were lying. For an album released in 1988 this has an iconic 90's sound.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Mar 01 2023

(What's the Story) Morning Glory? is a far superior album

The Nightfly by Donald Fagen
Mar 02 2023

Steely Dan singer attempts a Jazz album

Peter Gabriel by Peter Gabriel
Mar 04 2023

I only knew Solsbury Hill from this album but such a cinematic (is that the right word?) album

Arise by Sepultura
Mar 08 2023

It's that weird period between their Thrash metal/death metal style to their industrial style which I prefer,

The La's by The La's
Mar 09 2023

There She Goes is a hit. While I like the style (it felt like a blend of 80's synth pop and 90's butt rock), not much on this album stood out.

Raw Power by The Stooges
Mar 10 2023

Search and Destroy is the only song I enjoyed

Country Life by Roxy Music
Mar 11 2023

I really liked The Thrill of It All, the rest of the album was okay.

Debut by Björk
Mar 12 2023

This is probably one of the best albums from Björk

The Healer by John Lee Hooker
Mar 14 2023

Great blues album for a Friday afternoon

Mar 16 2023

I feel like the style of songs were far too similar, but a decent 90's R&B album

Aja by Steely Dan
Mar 17 2023

jazzy album

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Mar 18 2023

Beautifully depressing album.

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Mar 19 2023

Much like A Girl Called Dusty, this is a good album, plus it has the iconic Son of A Preacher Man on it.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Mar 20 2023

Is this the most recent album on this list? I'm surprised to see it on this list. A great indie folk album.

Scott 2 by Scott Walker
Mar 22 2023

I like the orchestral aesthetic, I just didn't love any of these songs. The songs all felt far too similar to all the other songs.

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre
Mar 24 2023
Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Mar 25 2023

Makes me want to be in a cool snowy climate, listening to this

Low by David Bowie
Apr 08 2023
