People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm

Popular Reviews

I fell asleep during a Van Halen concert in 1994 or 1995. Got my 1st bj in the parking lot after the show though. So that was nice.

Is Radiohead emo? Do they need a hug?

I'm not even sure how this album got made, much less why it's influential.

All Ratings (864)

This is nice Saturday morning listening. I will be adding Ray Charles to the rotation.

Solid but not spectacular for me. I listened all the way through 2x though so I'm torn between a 3 and a 4.

We used to listen to The Streets in college and I definitely dig The Streets, but if this Rap Opera is considered influential, then Prince Paul's A Prince Among Thieves better be on this list, since Paul did it first...and better.

The highs are high and the lows are low.

Did you know Canadian bacon is just ham? Wild.

Solid record. There's a hilarious track about Kentucky Fried Chicken. What more could you want??

Nah. I guess it's fine background music, but this one isn't for me.

Tomorrow Comes Today is a great Track. Del ABSOLUTELY SOARS on Clint Eastwood. Man Research makes me feel violent (SKIP!). Del rules some more on Rock the House. LEft Hand Suzuki Method was a hard pass.

This album is pure science fiction. Music, like no machine that will ever be created, has the ability to serve as a time machine that transports you to a very specific period of your life. I hopped on this album, pushed the triangular shaped go button and um..ummm...wheeewww was transported back to my college apartment.

This album makes my penis soft.

I wanted to go 5, but a couple tracks in the back half were just not for me.

Artificially flavored laboratory developed music specially designed to say all the words corny Americans live to hear. It must be good. He said Hometown and USA and work and young girl and by-god he's just like us.

Songs of Leonard Cohen: The Soundtrack to the Color Beige.

Better than expected doesn't always mean good.

Cloudy with a chance of Jazz!

This started terribly, but it sort of grew on me like an eruptum of mold

This album is superb!

SHAFT: Music to Polish Your Bedpost To

I have never listened to this album, but somehow I never every single song.

Fun fact: DJ Shadow's favorite holiday is Groundhogs Day.

Cheer up guys! You're in a band!

Meh.

This album slowly and surprisingly won me over.

This is a yard sale of albums. A random assortment of junk with a couple scratched up gems mixed in.

Everyone is so sad...

This was dope. Nice that Amazon rolled right into Seu Jorge.

Finally! An upbeat song about a girlfriend in a coma!

I fell asleep during a Van Halen concert in 1994 or 1995. Got my 1st bj in the parking lot after the show though. So that was nice.

Is Radiohead emo? Do they need a hug?

Is that lightning in space?

Meh

Puppies and rainbows and mass graves.

I want to like it because it's sub pop.

This album made me smile.

Some good old fashioned spin in a circle hippie dance music.

Legalize what?

Oh, Mothers.

Nowhere: Music to eat a bowl of broken glass to.

Great soundtrack for bickering about who should've looked at the map.

In the right situation, I could listen to this one again.

OK: Music to Pretend Your on Hold to.

Classic Rod Stewart. And by Classic, I mean yawnstipating.

Mucho bueno!! (Oops...I guess this is Portuguese...)

I can deal with the unsafe driving. I can live with the tale of pedophilia...errr...illicit love. I am fine with African cult rituals, but why does he have to whisper everything?

It's Whisper Week on 1001 Album Generator.

There were a couple of tracks that I dug.

I've been trying to listen to each album 2x though when time permits. I would like to listen to this album negative 2x through. Is that possible?

I just realized that my amazon music was playing this album on random. I didn't notice for an hour.

Incredibly non-offensive album

Terrible.

We used to listen to this album on the bus on the way to school. We were little and in love with rap.

There were actually a few tracks on here that I liked, but a lot more that I very much disliked.

I've tried to see Wu three times in my life. Two were cancellations and one was a no-show. Classic Wu...

Never heard this album before. It was a lot better than I expected.

This is, by far, my favorite Metallica album.

This sounds like every 90s band ever.

Make my sh*t the Chronic.

The Ghostface track was the rug that tied the whole album together. Now it's missing??

This is some warm bathtub and a razor shit.

I'm not even sure how this album got made, much less why it's influential.

Nope.

I dug it. Though I especially dug the music Amazon recommended after the end of the album.

The final song was the only interesting track on the album.

I don't know man, Kendrick is boring.

If the options were to five up music forever or listen to this album once per week, I would take a bath with a toaster.

Is every chorus just 6 words repeated over and over and over and over?

Sulk?? More like Suck.

Nearly every song sounds like a sitcom theme.

Yuck.

I wanted to give this 4, but the same track is on here like 5 times.

This is, by far, the least terrible Bjork album you've forced me to listen to.
