Fun. Mix of funk with African rhythms.

3.5 Enjoyed it more than I expected (haven't listened to Metallica in a long time)

3.5

A mixed bag, and much too long.

Some cool moments, plus a bunch of proggy nonsense

Synthy dance-punk vibes

Queen (in general) are too faux-opera/ music-hall for my tastes. This album being no exception.

Ballady pop with classical moments. Sometimes has Radiohead type vibes. Not to my taste.

2.5

No thanks

Kind of ballady country-rock/pop

3.5 Apathetic indie vocals over either jangly guitars or "Jesus and Mary Chain" style fuzzed-out pop. Not bad overall.

Should really have been two separate albums. Speakerboxxx: 2 Fairly straightforward hip hop. Struggled to get through it, since it felt a bit samey after a while. The Love Below: 3.5 Kept my attention better due to its eclecticness. Was a bit too long though, and rather hit-and-miss.

Sounds almost more classical than jazz to me

Fast and bulbous. Also, tapered.

Meh

2.5 Country rock. A bit boring overall.

Different to their earlier stuff, but still rather enjoyable.

Kinda bossa-nova-ish stuff, with some funky moments

Fairly boring country-esque pop-rock

A kind of overproduced, fairly poppy take on garage rock

Synth meets drum machine. Some cool tracks, some annoying tracks.

Better than I expected it to be.

3.5

3.5 Dirty (sometimes quite fuzzed out) grunge. The whiney sounding vocals prevent me liking the band as much as I might otherwise.

Vocal jazz isn't really my bag

Pretty cool. Bluesy rock/rocknroll/rockabilly/garage stuff.

Not really my thing, but more enjoyable than I expected. Maybe I really did listen without prejudice...

Dark trudgy folk

I enjoyed beats, and rap style. But there's a bit too much R&B vibes for my liking.

Some cool moments, but too all over the place to be consistently enjoyable.

2.5 Fairly boring country-rock/folk

3.5

Mostly clean, yet often dissonant, "rock"-ish music. Pretty cool.

English rap, with heavy minimalist beats.

Pretty generic southern rock

Boring trad-pop covers

Proggy prog. Not bad!

4.5 One of my favorite bands. Not my favorite album of theirs. Also, it goes on too long.

3.5 I enjoyed it more than expected. Perhaps one of the better so-called "post punk revival" bands.

Enjoyable.

Some enjoyable moments, especially the more syncopated beats. A lot of stuff that's not really my style though.

I kind of liked one song, and thought there was some interesting basslines here and there, but otherwise found the album rather intolerable

At this point he still has that jazzy/bluesy singer songwriter vibe. Maybe with a bit of a sense of the transition to come. Enjoyed overall. Maybe a bit too ballady in parts.

Fairly funky dance music

Slow, dark, minimalist, electro-synth stuff. Pretty cool.

Meh

2.5 Quite poppy, rock'n rolly, glam rock.

3.5 Pretty cool (except for one or two tracks I didn't enjoy), chill trip hop with Indian influences (alongside other stuff like flamenco, classical, etc)

"Jump into the fire" is pretty cool, but the rest is a bit meh

A few decent moments, but mostly just silly, badly-done genre mashing

The track with Santana was a bit meh. The rest of the album was pretty cool.

Never got the hype about Kanye. The best moments on this album are due to guest vocalists.

1.5

Sounds like a disco / new wave Bowie.

Some cool moments. Nice basslines. But too many jangle-pop vibes overall for my liking.

A bit of a mixed bag. Enjoyable overall though.

2.5

An interesting mix of electronic music with jazz/funk and Brazilian styles. It would take more listens for me to figure out what I really think of it.

2.5

2.5 Too much silliness for my liking

First three songs were enjoyable. The rest was pretty boring.
