The thing I have learned after more than 400 albums is that if an album is almost 2 hours long, chances are, half the songs can be scrapped. I don't see why we needed two hours, so in that it fails as an album. It wasn't even bad, but I kept looking at the time wishing it would be over sooner than later.

Listening to this album again after many years hasn't changed my mind on him. Kanye is a gifted producer, mid rapper and he turned out to have a despicable personality. This album gets three stars for the beats alone.

So funky, music that makes it hard to sit still while you listen.

Not a fan of the genre, but there were a couple good hits. Rest of the album didn't change my opinion of the genre.

I didn't hate the music, which is why it gets 2 instead of 1 star. The music was good, actually. Liked what I heard more than I expected. But two hours? As an album, it fails for me. It is too much for what it is.

Nice beats, the rap itself is not great but better than almost every white rapper at the time.

Very poetic lyrics. Lots of Indian/eastern and medieval influences.

Nice blues inspired rock. Loud, rough, good lyrics, nice rhythm and excellent guitar play.

Wonderful, wish I was there.

Love it, listen to it all the time!

So good, nice and jazzy

Not my cup of tea at all. Was a real chore going through this album.

Wasn't a fan of his flow but I liked the subjects and the beats were amazing. Lots of different genres which made it a joy to listen to.

The music was nothing special but his voice and lyrics were amazing. What an artist!

Enjoyed it well enough, nothing special though.

Dragged on a little but it was an interesting showcase of Indian classical music, which no one can deny was very influential in the decade later.

A few classics but wasnt a fan of the faux southern drawl in some of the later songs. Still a very good listen

Dreamlike and very catchy, I actually enjoyed it a lot

Wonderful album, one song is better than the next and every song is great. I should listen to more Billy Joel, seems he knows what he is doing.

I love good funk and this is great funk.

Wonderful album, definitely going into the library

Eh, it was alright I guess. Nothing earth-shattering.

Fantastic beats with a nice blend of genres, the lyrics are awesome and Lauryn Hill elevates this album to 5 stars easily. What a singer/rapper!

This came as somewhat of a surprise. I only knew Cars but the other songs ive heard in one way or the other, mostly through samples. That makes it a very influential album, not just because of its early use of digital instruments. Loved it a lot.

Psychedelic, chill and a fun listen overall.

Hallelujah makes this album, the rest was I enjoyed but didn't think it was amazing.

Enjoyed this album more than I expected. Some songs dragged on a little but the guitar play makes up for that.

A few good songs but overall the album did not move me. Didn't hate it, didn't love it.

I write usually write this bit the next day and I can honestly not even remember the album. This hasn't happened before. Completely forgettable.

Few good songs but so sweet it made my teeth ache.

Better than I expected. I loved the general vibe and nodded my head more than once.

She's Fresh, Scorpio, It's a Shame and The Message are the best songs, sadly the rest of the album doesn't hold up to this high standard. I appreciate the album for helping to make one of my favorite genres, but it hasn't aged all that well. The good songs are really solid, though.

I feel like I've heard this album a dozen times already and I don't mean this in a good way. Very run-of-the-mill, nothing really stood out to me. Boring.

Two good songs, the rest was boring. It's a small album, though, so I didn't feel like I wasted my time.

Lots of covers, and their original stuff didn't stick with me. It is ok, but not more than that.

Lovely album. Slow or fast, every song is good.

So good, I love this band.

Only good thing I can say is that it was thankfully short. Couldn't even go through the last song when I realized it was 9 minutes long. To me it is just a barrage of noise and it doesn't really seem to end. Horrible, I never want to listen to this album again.

They had their heart in the right place. Sadly they didn't have the raw talent to back it up.

Was an enjoyable album, but it didn't blow me away.

What a great song to start an album with. I never really listened to a Metallica album before, but I'm glad I did.

I hate ("modern") country music, but somehow the older stuff always clicks with me. I enjoyed this album. The subject matter is depressing, though. Every song is about alcohol enthusiasm, but I guess country music is always about how shit it all is. Would listen to it again.

It was ok, didnt move mountains but I enjoyed listening to it.

Good songs and it was a surprise to suddenly hear Corona.

Never heard of this band before but really enjoyed their sound. Unbelievable that this was made in the 70s, it sound like it was made not that long ago. Good stuff.

Beautiful.

Quite boring, really didnt grab my attention, even though I normally like this stuff. Didn't hate it, but I have heard much better.

Gimme Shelter makes the album, but the rest was good to listen to too.

Classic album, highly influential and the beats are still great.

So edgy, a little too edgy. Didnt quite come across as believable. At least the sound was ok

Wonderful! I love jazz so much and this is a really good example.

Actually enjoyed it, altough at the end it started to slow down a little. Nice variation of pop music.

Beautiful voices, but in a genre that is completely wasted on me. It was a struggle getting through this one.

Good beats, but not a huge fan of the raps.

Weird, quirky and very good. More people should sing about Martian spiders.

Wasn't a huge fan, thought it was a bit boring.

Couldnt stop moving listening to this, what a great collection of songs. The *real* King of Rock n Roll!

lots of good songs on this one.

Eh, it was alright. I've heard better of him and I have heard a lot worse in general.

Better than I expected. I only knew Cult of Personality but the other songs on this album were nice too.

When I saw the length of the album, I rolled my eyes. And while it does feel a bit self-indulgent at times, overall it was really good. Enjoyed it quite a lot and it has an interesting message overall.

Really enjoyed this, good combo of very good beats, good flow and lyrics.

Horrible album, filled with vapid pop songs. I was the right age for it at the time, but even then I hated it. Me getting older hasn't made it any better. The only reason why I won't give this album one star is because The Beat Goes On is actually a great song and I wish I knew it when I was 14.

Actually pretty good, nice and relaxing.

Loved it overall, but it was a little too samey for 5 stars.

Nothing special, but easy enough to listen to.

Somebody to Love and White Rabbit are absolute classics, of course. Sadly the rest of the album didn't grab me as much.

What a legend. Consider me Experienced.

Bit pretentious but not half bad

The Sinking Feeling sounds like it was made in the early 2000s, I'm sure I have heard the same melody at the start in Drum and Bass tracks. Just has a very modern (or timeless?) feeling to it. Good stuff.

Kinda went by me without making an impression. It is ok, i guess.

I grew up with this, my dad was a big fan. And you know, it rubbed off on me. Lots of good songs here with great guitar play.

Some really good songs on here.

Great album for a halloween party.

Exactly my kind of music. Chill, funky and dreamlike.

It was fine, didn't blow me away.

My kind of music, surprised I haven't heard of it before.

Wild World and Father and Son are such great songs.

Bit messy at time, especially the singer, but the music was good enough. Nothing great though.

Couple good songs but mostly forgettable.

This album just didn't blow me away. I'm used to better from them.

Black Hole Sun is a really good song, but for me the rest of the album didnt reach the same quality.

Pretty decent 90s electronica. Funky as hell.

Good lyrics, awesome vibe.

Didnt expect much but actually enjoyed it a lot.

Didn't grab me but good background noise.

Love this kind of music

Very good

Sometimes a little too experimental but the album had a lot of good songs.

Honesetly hated it first. Far removed from what I like and the singing was sometimes really bad. But the heart is in the right place on this album, I feel and it somewhat grew on me when it ended. Weird one.

Took the album title's advice and was not disappointed.

Loud, proud and with a tight drum. As a not-fan of the genre, I loved this.

This album was a trip. From calm, beautiful tones to an absolute barrage of noise.

I love Heart-Shaped Box, it is a great song, but honestly the rest of the album wasn't as good. Bit of a dud, really.

Instant 5 stars. I love drum and bass and I love Roni Size.

Wholesome but not amazing.

Bit too hipster for my taste.

Very 80s.

Feels very gimmicky

I thought it was boring, felt like ive heard it before even though I never heard of this band.

Messy, but interesting.

Some things are best left in the 90s.

Fun album, but it didnt grab me.

Alright, must have been a blast to see live.

Good stuff

Very 80s, not always a good thing but it works great here.

I can see why it is such a famous album and band. Never listened to the album before, but it had a unique sound and diverse genres that somehow seemed to work together

Quite a few songs I liked, but I really don't like the Beatles. They've made some of the most beautiful songs know, but to me, most of their songs are just boring love song fare. Still, 4 stars, because this album had more good songs than bad.

Never heard of this. Surprisingly jazzy. Weird. Good.

It was alright

Surprisingly good.

Weird experimental music that sometimes hits the marks and other times misses it completely.

It's like being told a story, one track at a time. Very nice.

Me: "Mom, can we listen to Joy Division?" Mom: "We have Joy Division at home" Joy Division at home: Jokes aside, I didn't hate it, but a song about fish cakes was a bit too far for me.

I cheered when I saw today's album, I love Gang Starr. Wonderful beats with jazz and soul samples, chill vibes and the rapper with the best voice (RIP Guru). Undeniable classic.

What a great musician, not a bad song on the album.

Interesting but it did drag on a little.

Smart lyrics and good music. Really good stuff.

Can't bring myself to care much about country.

Nothing stood out, but good background music.

This is one of those bands I've heard of but never really listened to. The music itself didn't blow me away, but the lyrics and general message made it very interesting. Nice slice of early 90s angry politics. Very dark and angry.

It wasn't as good as I expected, knowing only Killing in the Name. Good lyrics overall, topics I sympathize with generally, but often repetitive and musically it didn't touch me. I respect it, though.

didn't blow me away. Some good sounds here and there but it leaned too much into the sullen indie vibe than the more exciting mariachi sound.

Felt a bit generic at times, but it is still Bowie. Not-so-good Bowie is still good music.

Honestly just boring.

Neil Young is so good, always a pleasure to listen to one of his albums.

Banger after banger after banger. Even the songs that aren't that good in comparison to the hits are still fantastic. There is a lot to say about Jackson, but his musical talent is beyond reproach.

"Forrest Gump had a lot goin' for him Never without pussy Y'know, Jenny almost gave it all up for him Never even pushed for the pussy Where's Forrest now when you need him?" Yeah. The music was good at least.

It's fine, nothing special.

Good, but not as good as I expected. Must have been amazing when it came out, though.

Could not get into it at all. It sounded bad at times, but I think it was done ironically. Not that it changes much for me, because it still sounds bad even if done ironically.

This was a side of Dylan I hadnt hear before. Very dark and dirty.

Eddie plays the guitar like it is a piano. Wonderdful.

It is currently 36 degrees celsius where I'm now, and an album like this just hits differently then. Very much enjoyed it.

Best thing about the album was that it is only 37 minutes long.

When I read "dub", I got excuted. King Tubby this isn't :(

It was alright. Cant say much more about it.

It was alright, but it didnt pop as it should. Felt like it tried to be James Brown but without the energy.

Very nice, not enough jazz on this list.

First punk album so far I didn't hate and it got even better when it was only 30 minutes long. Loved the rhytmn and speed on this one

Great album, every song is good. Wish it was longer, though.

Couple good songs (the title track, really) but mostly forgettable.

First time i properly listened to LZ, but this was really good.

Sometimes it was just noise, but I didnt hate it.

Lost me completely when he started singing in falsetto, but got me a bit back at the end with Butcher Boy

The singing isnt great, the music itself is samey, it all sounds very depressing, but for some reason it just resonates in me. Good stuff.

Easy 5 stars, I love this album so much. Super chill and it transports you to a far away place, where the sun always shines and the beaches are always beautiful.

Just boring. Not awful, mind, but I that is the most positive thing I can say about it.

Super energetic, cant stop moving listening to this.

Not entirely what I look for, but I can't deny that it is good.

Classic album, every song is great.

Fantastic beats, the lyrics sometimes falter a little, but the whole picture is very good.

Boring.

The music is pretty good but boy does the singer's high-pitched become annoying after a while.

This was really good. Didn't know what to expect, but good beats were definitely not on the card. Simply great.

Something different for a change. I dont think i could listen to this music every day but it was a nice change from all the rock albums I've been getting lately.

Smooth

Dark and emotional atmosphere with a few absolute classics.

Wonderful

So funky, music that makes it hard to sit still while you listen.

Helplessly Hoping alone makes this album 4 stars. What a song, it gave me goosebumps and had me stifle a tear. The rest of the album was ok, I guess, but that song elevated it.

I basically love anything wutang related.

Completely unremarkable

Didn't expect it to like it this much. Sounded raw and heavy and at other times like soul. Good stuff.

Honestly just forgettable. Not for me.

Pretty good

Much better than I expected, looking at the other comments. Her voice is certainly unique but not at all annoying. Good stuff, too bad it wasn't on Spotify.

Nice and energetic, the singer voice was pretty made it all come together.

All aboard the Coltrane!

Felt like I've heard this album 5 times on this list. Doesn't make it bad, but just more of the same.

Didnt do anything for me, but I also didn't outright hate it.

My mom loves this album, so I gave it a shot. Aside from the two famous songs (Paradise and Took the Words), none really did anything for me. So yeah, sorry mom, I can't see it.

Couple really good songs on this one. Lyrically theyre all amazing, but some fail musically.

What I love about Hancock is that he saw the advent of synthesizers and instead of being a purist about jazz, he recognized its worth and made it work.

Bridge Over Troubled Water is a classic for good reason, but I couldn't get into most of the rest of the album. It certainly wasn't bad, just not entirely my thing.

I like "Scoobie Snacks" a lot, the rest of the album is a bit less... it is not grating, thankfully, so not an entirely bad listen.

Better than I expected. Simply a fun album.

Lots of different vibes on this album. Normally not a huge fan of this kind of music, but it hit well today.

Actually pretty good, still, after all these years and many new ways artists have found to make electronic music.

It is af he tried to figure out his genre for himself, while having the talent to back up such a project. Fun album!

Good album, really worth it to listen on headphones.

Couple really good songs, and more songs that didnt really move me at all.

Pretty good, do wonder if the faux accent was necessary, but different times, I guess.

This was definitely one of the albums of all time! But seriously, it is obvious that the person who made this album has a taste (as is his right!) except it not entirely my taste at time. To me this sounded a bit too familiar without it moving me. Not bad, but boring.

Hell yeah, good stuff.

Neil Young is always good stuff.

Easy 5 *, listened to this album my entire life, one of my favourites of all time.

Actually a lot better than I expected.

Must've been a trip when this first came out.

Guess this is where Duran Duran got its inspiration from. Sadly, aside from the title song, none of the songs really stood out to me. Nice history lesson, though.

Wow, makes me want to watch the movie.

I'm not going as far as saying he thinks his character is in the right for shooting his unfaithful partner, but two songs about it? Leaves a bit of nasty taste in the mouth, because writing a nice song about it does romanticize the sentiment, if even a little. Also a moneylender named Saul? Pfff. Musically I didn't mind this album, which is rare for country, but it is clear that I just don't understand the genre.

"I was feelin' kinda lonesome and blue I needed somebody to talk to So I called up the operator of time Just to hear a voice of some kind When you hear the beep It will be three o'clock She said that for over an hour And I hung up" This made me laugh. Wonderful album and it is easy to forgot that Dylan performed it all by himself.

Lots of classics and a showcase of few different genres from the 90s

Eh, it wasn't bad, but I both loved and hated her style of singing.

Not a fan of the genre, but there were a couple good hits. Rest of the album didn't change my opinion of the genre.

There's good reason why they call him the King.

Very poetic.

Monday Monday and California Dreaming are rightful classics, but looking at the album as a whole, none of the other songs come close. I would even go as far as calling them boring.

Honestly all sounded the same to me. Unremarkable.

Pretty album.

Yeah, bit boring, innit?

Didn't expect much, but I really enjoyed the album.

Very unique sound, lots of genres mashed together by a band that seems to have a lot of fun with it.

It is not that I think it is bad, but I find it all very forgettable. The way I see the Beatles, and McCartney by extension, is that theyve written some of the most beautiful pop music ever, but it is surrounded by some of the most boring schlock. Sadly, this album was mostly the latter. (As a side note, I'm happy this site does not have a comment section, because I'm sure these are fighting words for some)

What a trip. One thing Ive learned from this list is that Zappa is really good.

Had to keep reminding myself that this is live. Must have been a special experience.

Bit to sweet for my liking, but very well produced and accompanied by a beautiful voice.

Wow, what a nice, quirky album. Iconic voice, different genres and a singer with a vision.

I just really like Joy Division. It's the atmosphere, the rhythms, the sound of the instruments. It all just comes together for me even though I generally do not care much about the genre.

I love Song Number 2. Honestly the only song of theirs that I know, so I was very exciting to finally hear the album it was from. I'm writing this review the next day and I honestly struggle to remember any of the other songs. They all blur (heh) together. Nothing else stands out or is even remotely memorable. One song doesn't make an album, but it does save it from a 1 star rating.

Nice beats, and while often vulgar, Missy had something to say.

Unfair, because this is an album I listened to for months whenever I was on the train to school. Happy to report it still holds up after all these years, but that might just be nostalgia and memories talking. Who cares if it does, though?

It was alright. Not much to say.

Shouldve been called "The Afghan Whines" instead. Man, I can only take so much moaning about everything.

Nice pop edm from the 90s.

Short and sweet with a couple really good songs on it ("This Fire" being a standout for me). Wonderful, better than I expected.

Raw, broken, and dirty. That's how I'd describe this album. Interesting too. Unique. Not sure if I really enjoyed it, though, but maybe I'm not supposed to?

Yes!

Boring. Unremarkable. Ive heard similar things too many times on this list.

Other than a few hits, I haven't listened to a lot of TH, but this album showed me that this was a mistake. Love the lyrics, Byrne's voice, style and the unique-sounding music.

I know it is good, just not for me. As usual with a Beatles album, one song is really good, the rest are just so-so. I just don't see the magic.

Very 80s, but in a good way.

It was nice, just didnt blow me away. At times a bit boring, even. Nice background music, but listening to it made me look for other stuff to do.

Same ol same ol.

Ethereal, pretty, but also a bit vague. Good listen, but didnt blow me away and none of the songs stood out.

Lots of different style made for an enjoyable album

Ive hear better of him, but the album deserves to be on the list since it is the last one of a legendary artist.

Good noise but not great.

What a weird album. Not a huge fan of his flow, but some songs really came in hard. You know, think I'm deciding it wasn't half bad, despite the poo poo pee pee humor.

Only really familiar with the title song before listening to the album. Enjoyed it a lot. It did get a little less good at the end, but not enough to ruin it.

Classic.

Goddamn, powerful, straight-to-you-face album. Fantastic beats, fantastic lyrics. Love it!

Short and boring, quite impressive actually.

Great stuff

Good, but this style of music does not do it for me at all.

Next day and I barely remember it.

Good, but went on too long. At the end I was really done with it, could've dine with a little cutting.

Something different at least.

I liked the music, but Robert Smith singing style is too whiny.

I like his loud, cool and raw style. The album is also not too long, so it doesn't outstay its welcome. Pretty good!

Idk, sometimes you just like it.

Wow! Went in with no expectations, enjoyed every minute of it. Just super chill jazz piano.

Massive Attack always has a special place in my heart. Extremely cool, chill triphop.

Just an awesome album, takes big balls to start your album with a song from the pov of a stalker.

This is a tough one. One the surface, it is kinda crap. The beats are great, don't get me wrong, but the raps especially just feel off. But as a whole, it just drives the theme down of a normal bloke who is a bit of a loser, who lost his girlfriend and is going through it. From that context it all comes together for me. Idk, always had a special place in my heart for the Streets.

Couple bangers, couple songs that kinda missed the mark but not awful. Enjoyed overall.

I was bored throughout.

What a joy to listen. This band is just legendary. Unique sound, great singer, great musicians and they have a lot of fun. Not many bands are like this.

Very good voice, very good songs. Loved it.

Boring schlock. Nothing interesting to say about it, other than Heatwave being fine.

Raw, honest and unfortunately still very relevant.

Smooth album, although I didn't feel the need to masturbate to it.

Very chill, although samey. Not that it hurt it, though.

I was skeptical at first, but it turned out to be a very funny and fun album.

Classic.

Not bad, not great.

As I'm laying sick in my bed, this was a comfortable distraction. Only real issue I have is that it is too long, got a bit bored of it near the end and it cost it the 5* rating.

Can't muster up the enthusiasm that others seem to have with this album, but it was a good listen nonetheless.

Banger after banger after banger. This album, and band, was the soundtrack from my pre-puberty till early adulthood and I am glad it aged like a fine wine.

Not a word said, and I made a 1000 stories up in my head. Just a super chill album.

Of course already familiar with this singer, 7 Seconds being such a big hit and all, it was nice to hear some of his early work. And especially nice to hear this type of traditional music with a heavy 80s synth vibe to it. Very enjoyable!

Obvious passion project, but I thought it went on a little too long. Hope to see the other albums on this list, though.

God, this was boring.

Can never get enough of good Jazz.

Enjoyed it, at least.

Normally not a fan of punk but this hit different. Bri'ish guy shouting over noise.

I get what they're going for and they are doing it very well. Shame that what they were going for is making an anthem for the edgy, anti-social, unkempt guy whose main goal in life is driving his shitty beater and being a menace to his small town. It's not even that the music is bad, it is actually pretty good most of the time. It is hard and dirty, sometimes with other genres mixed in. And Wait and Bleed is still a banger. The big issue is just that the subject matter feels so juvenile, it makes it hard to take it seriously, even though it feels like Slipknot takes itself *very* seriously.

Right amount of jazzy, right amount of blues but ultimately felt like it took a little too long. What a voice, though.

WHAT. A. VOICE.

Some say repetitive, I say it is hypnotic. The beats are good enough that they don't get boring despite repetition, accompanied by a powerful message. Just don't expect te learn anything new, empowerment and pride seems to be the goal here. If you want more out if it, it probably isnt meant for you and that is fine. As an aside, this is why I listen to a new album every day. I find stuff I wouldn't have discovered otherwise and it is amazing.

Pretty good BD album

Good stuff

Bangerz

It was alright, got a but boring after a while. Duran Duran lite is a good description indeed.

All I wanna do is have some fun, but sadly this album wasn't that fun to me. Obvious talent, great voice but not for me. Did Coldplay steal from Crow, btw?

Good stuff, but started to get a little samey after a while

Couple really good songs here and overall high quality. J

Blegh, this was so boring. Half hour was too long.

it was ok

couple really good songs on this one. Always nice from a band you've never heard before.

Hard time remembering anything about the album a day later, but I didnt hate it. Wish there was a 2.5 option.

Bit of a downer, but in an excellent way.

It was good, just not very memorable.

Nothing special, nothing band.

Im sure it is good, but it just feels like an hour long moaning session. I'm not getting anything else out of it.

Cool style.

So much energy and fun from beginning to end.

Smooth sounds, not what I expected.

When this album popped up I felt a little despair. A genre I don't care for, edgy name and edgy album art. Fortunately I was pleasently surprised and once again reminded why I do this every day. Get out of my comfort zone, hear something I normally wouldn't and find out that it is pretty good.

Expected to hate it, never listened to a Swift song before (not that I could recognize, anyway). She makes the type of music I normally try to skip. But this was far better than I expected. I can see why she is so popular, because if I liked her genre, I'd be all over it. Best song was 'no body, no crime', its conclusion made me laugh

Great from beginning to end.

I was glad this album was done. Boring.

TRANS-EUROPE EXPRESS. Always nice to hear the humble beginnings of electronic music. Yeah, it is a little samey, but who care? What's there is solid.

Good sounds throughout.

Good vibes, at least. A bit samey.

Masterpiece.

So many good songs on this album.

Very pleasant surprise. Wish I found this much sooner.

Cute album for the day.

Always super chill

Bleh, I find him whiny.

Powerful last album, even though most are covers. Good stuff.

What a voice. I forgot it was live a couple times.

Was alright.

Liked it.

Alright

Sounded good, but it got a bit samey after a while. Think it would've been better if it was a half hour album.

Blegh, better than other similar albums I've heard but not by much. Just a lot of noise, can't get used to it.

It was ok, couldn't get into it.

Two good songs, the rest was quite boring.

Two songs were good, the rest I don't even remember.

Just fine.

Bossa Nova is my happy place.

Forgettable

Fun to see where Belinda Carlisle cut her teeth. Never heard of this band before, enjoyed it nonetheless. Good tempo, nice and short so it doesn't outstay its welcome, which is a quality I've come to appreciate since starting this list.

This wasnt fun at all.

Couple really good songs, quite a few that shouldve been cut if it were up to me. 1h30m is too much when half the songs are just ok.

Good, but too long. I do not need 15 minute 'ok' songs in my life. Shame, because i really liked what heard, it just draggsd on and on.

At times boring.

Good from start to finish. Right rhytmn, rough style. Love it!

Bit slow, too long, but not too bad.

Classic.

God, this took way too long, especially given how boring it was.

I found it very dream-like, like Nick Drake took me on a trip.

Good enough.

I don't give a 1 star often (this album is my third after 300+ albums), because I can usually find something redeemable, but this album was just a pain. The singing/screaming is often incomprehensible, it is a lot of harsh noise and the worst sin of all (which knocked it down from 2 to 1 stars) is that it is 1h20 minutes long. You have to come with something really special for me to want to spend ~1/24th of my day listening to you and this is very far from that. Couldn't even finish it (first time that happened!!!) once I realized I barely made it half way, This is too self-indulgent.

Very funky.

I expected more from them, at least they got better as time went on. But damn, this was a hard album to get through. Completely mediocre, could've been written by a dozen other bands. Blegh.

Smooth and chill.

I listened to the abridged version. I dont think I could handle 3 hours of any album, no matter how good. That said, beautiful voice, great songs with some of them a bit too slow at times. Loved it, though.

So many bangers.

Pretty chill. Jazzy.

Classic through and through. Fantastic beats with some of the best rappers in their prime. It is raw, creative and in your face.

What a voice!

Completely forgettable. Not bad, mind, but I see no reason why it is on this list.

Chill album, wonderful to sit back and close your eyes.

2h34 minutes? Gtfo. This album was not nearly good enough to justify it, soured me on the whole experience.

What I'd expect from Swift. Very well done, obviously high quality both in music and lyrics. Just definitely not for me.

Im sure it is good if you're a country fan, but I rarely see the appeal.

Bad in many ways, but also catchy as hell. What a weird combo.

Love to get an album where every song is great.

Very smooth jazz but missed a bite at times.

Requim was pretty good, rest of the album just passed me by,

Good stuff

Hard to to do better when you start with such a great first song. Everything else was good, but never hit the quality of Roundabout.

Simply good from start to finish.

Enjoyed it more than I expected. Love the grandiose story-telling.

I always say the same when Ive listened to a Beatles album, but it is the same here. A couple really good songs with a majority of forgettable songs. I don't hate them, but I also don't see the hype. Guess I'll just have to stick to a Greatest Hits collection.

I didn't hate the music, which is why it gets 2 instead of 1 star. The music was good, actually. Liked what I heard more than I expected. But two hours? As an album, it fails for me. It is too much for what it is.

Forgettable slop.

Blegh.

Good from start till end.

Honestly fine, didn't blow me away. Felt like I had already heard it throughout this album-a-day journey.

I enjoyed this album more than I expected. Just clean, simple fun.

Normally I can't this kind of music but this album is just great.

Was chill enough, just couldnt get into it. Album was only half an hour and halfway in I was looking at the time.

Refreshing.

One of those albums where I thought I would hate it. The melodies and guitar play brought me over.

I grew up listening to Bob Marley, I still listen to him regularly (should be more often) and I hope when I'm old and gray, I still listen to him. The lyrics of his political songs still work today, it is universal.

I like the original a lot, so it was a surprise to see there was a prog rock version. And it was actually good, it was a nice cover with the same feeling as the original while giving its own spin. Point docked for the singing, though. Did not add anything.

It was nice, not much to say about it. Middle-of-the-road.

I went in hating this album. 2 hours! Are they insane?? It is too much! But hey, I loved Stankonia back in the day and I like Outkast in general, so I kept on going. I am glad I did. The first disc dragged me right in, but near the end I was wondering how far I'd get on the second disc. Well, let me tell you, dear reader, I did not stop nodding my head the entirety of disc 2. Engrossed, is the word. So yeah, long ass album but worth it to me. Which is a rarity.

Otis Redding doing classic covers. An album full of cover would normally not do it for me, but this was so good.

Wasnt blown away by the album, but it is Black Sabbath. A bad song of theirs is still good.

Bit too slow for my taste (at the start I was checking if Spotify somehow had a feature that slows down the bpm) but undeniably good.

Getting tired of all seeing every Beatles member's side project on this list. It's not bad, but it is not that good either.

Refreshing, and hey! That's that song from GTA.

Couldn't really get into it, sounded quite samey very quickly. La Grange was a good song, though.

There are other albums that deserve a place on this list. I'm ok with Deep Purple, but this album is too long and has songs that another album on this very list has too. It is already hard to make a case for live albums on this list and the only thing I know for sure is that this isn't it.

This is bad in many ways. In the bin.

I did not understand a lot of it (probably because I'm ESL) but you can't deny the wonderful flow of Irish. Great stuff.

Nothing special, not bad either.

Good stuff.

Nice old school electronica. Brought me back to the early 90s.

The first two songs, I was into it. But the longer it went on, the more I realized I was listening to a cheap imitation of the genre. The drums were messy, the singing flat. The guitarplay is all that is really good, but I feel like it mostly hides how bad everything else is. Weird album.

Very edgy, I liked it when I was 15.

He's such a wonderful storyteller.

Where Is My Mind is the best part of this album. The rest was ok, not great.

It is very gimmicky. Not bad, but "famous songs played with sitar" gets old before the album is done.

Legendary album, definitely deserves its place on this list.

It was good, second Pixie album of the week, though.

"Take it is easy" made the album for me, sadly the rest of it never hit that quality. Still enjoyed it throughout.

Stuff I would have never listened to otherwise, but is very interesting and good.

I came in expecting comfortable pop tunes like Red Red Wine, instead I was treated with fantastic dub music. What a pleasant surprise!

Im very unfamiliar with Morrissey sn what he said or did. All i really have to go by is his work, and idk, I just find it so whiney. That's the general feeling I get from it.

Normally I like New Order - and maybe it was the wrong day for it- but I found it absolutely boring.

Blue Orchid was great, everything else less so. Bit boring overall.

What a weird album, but I didnt hate it. Not at all.

Generic British rock album #2489

Great from start to finish.

A nice history lesson, shame it is a little too long.

What a fun album.

Nice and funky, exceedingly weird lyrics.

I love jazz so much.

Yeah, what can you say. It's a S&G album, and it feels the same as the others did.

Went on a little too long for my taste but I liked it.

Such a fun, energetic album

My dad used to watch the dvd of this concert all the time, but I never got into it. Sitting down and listening made no difference.

Yeah, this was one of the country albums I have ever listened to.

You ever have an album that just doesn't register? You hear it, but it just becomes backgrouns noise. It's not bad, it's not offensive. It's just there, making no impact whatsover. This is that album for me.

Definitely not for me, but what a great voice. I can't deny that.

Didn't hate it, love her lyrics and voice. But damn, it was boring. It just didnt come together for me.

Hueuueheueheueheuhe is the only thing I heard after a while.

It's decent ska, but I've heard so much better. I love reggae and all its subgenres it's just that this album just didn't hit me like this genre often does. It meandered on without really taking it anywhere. Whenever it bent to another genre, it fell flat.

Oh man, I wanted to give this album 5*, because the good songs (Do It Again, Only a Fool, Reelin' in the Years) are excellent. The rest just fell short for me and sadly dragged the album down. Shame, was looking forward to this one.

2 great songs, the rest was decidely blegh.

It was alright, nothing exciting. Rather see him with Crosby, Nash and Young.

Just sounds all the same.

Was alright, nothing special

I feel like ive heard this album before on this list. I get that a lot of people like it, but it is just so... bland. Like so many rock albums, it is loud, abrasive and at times politically engaged. There's nothing unique and exciting about it. I'm not saying I hated it (and it was mercifully short), it's just that this scene completely passed me by in 2001 and I do not have the fuzzy nostalgic feelings that could make it a classic in my eyes.

Heard it so much in my youth, can't stand it now.

It sits between too silly and damn good.

Horrible, atonal noise. Not my thing at all

Fine, nothing special.

Every song a banger.

I love Lone Wolf and Cub (although the samples are from an American recut called Shogun Assassin) and I love Wu-Tang, so this was just great from start to finish. Mid 90s hiphop beats just hit different.

I remember when it came out that it had such a fresh, unique sound. Still holds up after all these years.

I wanted to give 2 stars for including eminem before he got really big. But "smack-selling" what? Minus one. God, this is worse than normal country.

Nothing special, very chaotic.

Simply boring. Not horrible, though.

Couldnt stop tapping my foot from start to finish.

Good, but way too long. I zoned out near the end.

Bit boring, but +1 star because I recognized a song from GTA4 and nostalgia is powerful.

50s country sounds all the same.

A lot of noise, but I get what they were going for. Unfortunately it was mostly annoying to me.

The thing I have learned after more than 400 albums is that if an album is almost 2 hours long, chances are, half the songs can be scrapped. I don't see why we needed two hours, so in that it fails as an album. It wasn't even bad, but I kept looking at the time wishing it would be over sooner than later.

Glad it was only 20 minutes long.

It was fine, didn't blow me away.

Great beats, sometimes a little preachy. Wanted to give it 5 stars because I was nodding my head constantly. But then after the album, Spotify gave me a Brand Nubian song and I was reminded there is better in this style. Still a very good album, just not entirely there.

It was fine. No big surprises, nothing standing out. Just a very 80s album that came out in the 90s.

Far more soulful than I expected. Short and good.

Too long, not interesting. I expected better from Beyonce, like her when she was in Destiny's Child.

Petty good, made me feel like I was watching an old talk show at times.

Some of the reviews are a bit overly harsh, there's some good stuff to be found. It just drags on.

I couldve done without his singing, but I nodded my gead throughout. He did sonething right.

It was ok, nothing special, not much to say.

Somehow reminded me of a chanson.

This album sounds like 10-20 other albums ive heard on this list. Very basic, nothing sprung out.

It's alright. Hated the free flow guitar song, though. That was horrible.

This was boring amd at times bad. No need for it to be on this lost, no matter what his credentials are.

Classic, could not stay still.

Tainted Love great, everything else is not. Didn't hate it and didn't want to throw it away, but it was very boring. Mostly just passed me by.

Amazing voice, my day instantly started great when I found out that this was today's album.

It sounds fine, but also very samey.

Every song sounds the same.

Weird album, but I couldn't get into it. Some songs are great, it's just that the complete picture is a complete mess.

It felt more modern (early 90s) than I'd expect from a 1986 album, so I got to give them credit for that. Sadly this style is mostly wasted on me.

Started really good, first song is wonderful. Then it turned into what I can only describe as city center hotel lobby vibes.

I was excited for this one, because I love Massive Attack and hadn't heard this album yet. Sadly I think their later work is better, but I enjoyed it a lot. Smooth triphop, can't really go wrong there.

One song sounded like the other. Nothing stood out. Boring.

Interesting music, never really knew that NIN was this electronic. Just wish it wasn't all woe is me, though.

Hard to understand as ESL, but very charming nonetheless.

Nice guitarplay, reminded me of the dwarf fortress soundtrack.

Mom, I really want that Prince album! We have a Prince album at home. The Prince album at home:

Grew up with these era of U2, but I found this album pretty forgettable. Still decent, though.

Good but samey.

Very good, very smooth.

Boring, that's all I have to say about it. I expected some nice cowboy tunes, but instead got run-of-the-mill prog rock. Nothing awful, mind. Just unremarkable.

Quirky. Took me a few songs to get into it, but I somewhat liked what he was cooking here.

I listened to it the day before and it is so unremarkable, I can't think of anything to say.

I liked this mix of genres. Nice album Ive never heard of.

What a dumb album.

This was fun. Idk where I recognize the first song from, but what a way to start an album. I was happy that it kept that energy and that it was short but good. No complaints.

Not as good as their other stuff, but I loved it nonetheless.

Classic. After his excellent (and more radio-friendly) album Infinite failed commercially, Eminem decided to embrace his unhinged alter ego. Yes, the lyrics are crass and disgusting, but it is also clear that Slim Shady is an awful persona. See Role Model. Eminem begs you to not take it seriously. The absurdity of the violence and insanity pushes the album into dark humor and I can't help but laugh at the clever turns of phrases. Excellent stuff.

One of those albums where you wonder why it is on the list.

Fantastic stuff.

Great beats but I cant stand Jay-Z's voice and flow. He's not awful, just not for me.

First time listening to My Bloody Valentine and I hope it's my last.

What a great album for many different reason. A nice mix of genres, great funk short but powerful and not one wasted moment. Love it!

One of those albums I remember little about the next day. Made almost no impression.

I'm of the opinion that any album longer than an hour usually has songs that could easily be cut and it would improve the album. Yes, every song on this album is between good and great, but even good and great songs lose their lustre when they go on too long. Now imagine a single album with only the best songs, it would've been so tight. Now it just meanders on at points, it is a shame.

So many non-English language albums in the world, so few on this list. And what do we get? A weird pedo story. No thanks.

Very americana.

I get that Thom Yorke has his own style, but man, I'm getting bored of it. The whole album just washed over me, it felt like one long whine.

Great guitarplay, lovely album. Not more to be said.

Femi Kuti is so good, I could listen to his music for hours.

Couple really good songs on here, but near the end it got boring. Shame.

It sounds good, but it also misses something. Feels very much like a copy of something.

Made it halfway before I had enough. Not nearly interesting enough for an hour and a half, let alone almost three!

What a trip. For some reason I always ignored Ice-T's work, and I really shouldn't have. Intelligent lyrics, variety in beats and wonderfully politically engaged. Loved Midnight in particular.

I couldn't finish this album, which is rare. I always try to give the albums on this list a proper listen. Her style of singing, however, annoyed me to no end. It's too similar, and while technically good, it feels too insincere. I don't know if the latter is actually true, but that's how it came across I couldnt get through with it and all this supposed homage to the classics evoked in me was the feeling to shut this shit off and listen to the actual classics this album was dedicated to.

This is amazing. M.I.A herself is good enough but what really shines on this album is the great production. These beats are so good, excellent stuff!

Short and strong.

Today I learned that I do not like Tori Amos. I like her lyrics, they're very poetic. Sadly it wasn't enough to save her performance.

One of those albums that is entirely unremarkable. No hate, no love, not even a memory of it a day later.

Typical 3 star fare. Wasnt great, wasn't awful and it was good at times. Nothing special, though.

Is it special? No. Sounded good, though, but it sometimes it missed the mark.

Bit loud but good.

I really cant stand this kind of country.

I liked the sound, just thought it was nothing special. Joan of Arc are the two exceptions.

First song was pretty good, I was excited to hear more. And then it all fell down.

Great album, fantastic beats. I forgot how much I love Common.

Normally I vibe with Crosby, but this album just washed over me without making any impact.

Fun album.

Forgettable

I expected to hate it but I was pleasantly surprised.

Excellent. I'm probably biased because I love reggae and it's 30 degrees celsius where I am now, so the album sounded even better. Now to track down the original release.

Groove is in the Heart is such a banger, sadly the rest of the album does not come close.

The sampling on this album is so good, wonderfully intelligent rhymes and delivered with an excellent flow. Enjoyed it from start to finish.

Weird album, I get what Newman is trying to do here but (in 2024 at least) it is missing its mark. Too crude, the point often hammered down. Maybe it was necessary when it came out.

I wanted to listen to anything but this. Just felt too much like other, better artists.

Coldplay is best when you don't pay much attention to it. Nice background tunes while you focus on something else. Not the most ringing endorsement, but it is comfortable. Nothing deep, nothing difficult. Like a piece of gum.

The man is a mess but he can perform like an angel.

Really nothing to say about it. It was boring.

This album hasn't convinced me into loving this genre, but I was on board for the duration.

One of those albums that I've apparently listened to 100s of times because it was on rotation at a previous job. So yeah, this is hotel reception music.

It is an Elvis Costello album.

This album washed over me. Generic sounding rock music. I can't think of anything else to say about it.

Deeper Understand and This Woman's Work are great. Loved the imagery. The other songs didn't hit as hard, but I still enjoyed it overall.

Troubadour 60s folk with sitar. You'd think it'd be unique, but this is not the first album I've heard like it on this list. The 60s were something else.

This was bad, glad it was over with quickly.

Short and steady.

The first song was just annoying. As if it was designed specifically to irritate me. The rest was a little better, but not enough (not even close) to win me over.

This is the secon time in a week that I get Costello, and it really makes him worse.

Nothing special, didnt hate it, didn't enjoy it much either.

Wonderfully weird. I couldn't always follow what she was on about, but I liked the music, I liked her weird singing. Idk what else to say.

I like his lyrics, they evoke an image that hits home with me. Sadly the music was a bit too simple and instead of turning it into an intimate whole, it felt bare-bones instead. That's what makes it a difficult album for me. I like Cohen's voice, I like the lyrics on this album but as a whole I didnt feel as much raw emotion as I shouldve. That puts it in the middle-of-the-road category.

I just don't get the appeal. I can tell a lot of care and talent is put in this album, a lot of emotion too, yet it leaves me completely unfazed and it quickly turned into background noise. It does not grab me.

Fast Car is a classic, don't think that can ever be taken away. Sadly the rest of the album isn't as good, but it came close enough.

As far as country goes, it was alright. Nothing special, though.

Turn You Inside Out is awesome, the rest was boring.

I saw all the 5s and got excited. What a letdown. Love the music, but couldn't stand the singer's voice.

Music from a bygone era retreaded. Its fine, but definitely nothing new and exciting.

What am I missing? I had to keep reminding myself that this was not the Beatles.

Couldn't get into it. Boring, weird.

Listening to this album again after many years hasn't changed my mind on him. Kanye is a gifted producer, mid rapper and he turned out to have a despicable personality. This album gets three stars for the beats alone.

What a great album, only half an hour and most of the songs are classics.

Very unique sounding album, We Carry On was amazing.

Amazing music, notes go in directions where they shouldn't work, yet they do.

I like drums. This album has a lot of drums.

Interesting album, albeitb abit meandering. Loved the last track, though.

Meh. Boring and it went on for too long.

Music was nothing special, but it vibed.

Typical Waits album. Raw voice, raw lyrics and raw music. I'm here for it.

Nothing special punk and 2h15m of it. Lol. Lmao even.

Uneventful, forgettable, in fact, I can barely remember it a day later.

Fun pop rock album, nothing more to say about it.

Yay another Smiths album and Morrisey's whining singing. This is getting so old.

Thank you Miles, very cool!

I hate country, I like Dolly Parton as a person and I like the music she makes (despite being country). Fun stuff.

Nothing special.

Raw and heavy, with rap and beats that left me wanting more.

It was alright. Loved that it was so short.

Fun lyrics, but I didnt care much for the music. It was alright.

Waits has such a distinct style and it is growing on me. Some albums are more of a miss, but this one is definitely a hit.

Idk what it says about me when I didnt think it was outrageously horny. Like the music, always had a soft spot for Aerosmith.

Messy, loud and boring

Great disco.

Awesome beats, still a mid rapper. I liked it better than TCD.

But boring at times, great at others. Really a middle-of-the-road album.

Master of rhytmn, this goes so hard. My only complaint is that it makes me want to learn french.

Intimate rendition of some of their biggest songs and somehow making it the better version. Wonderful.

I figured I would hate this, but I love what she did here. It's a unique experience, an album that's mostly acapella but if you stop listening to it intensely, it sounds like normal music. That's an achievement.

I can't believe some of his biggest hits were made in his early teens. Massive talent.

Absolutely nothing special, but not bad at all either. Good background noise.

Boring and messy.

Awesome album, but not reaching the greatness that the name recognition suggests it should.

This is crap. If this is all you knew about Lennon you'd think he was an awful singer who thinks too highly of himself.

Ive heard so many variations of this on this list, but it all sounds the same. It's getting boring.

Was fine, did fall asleep while listening but I was very tired and I dont think it is fair to blame Bob for that.

Interesting classical Indian music but I didnt care much for it.

Awesome beats, especially if you consider how it was made. In 2024 this would be much easier to make, but back then he had to cut and paste it all using a sampler, which is a PITA to work with. Impressive albeit a little repetitive.

Why did I move here? I guess it was the weather. Or the… Ah, I don’t know, that thing. That magic. You see it in the movies. I wanted to retire. From what I was doing, you know? From that, that… line of work. Be a good guy for once, a family man. So, I bought a big house. Came here, put my feet up, and thought I’d be a dad like all the other dads. My kids, would be like the kids on TV. We could play ball and sit in the sun. But well, you know how it is. Anyway, first song slapped, went downhill from there.

The first and last song are the best, really great. Rest was ok.

I don't really get Nick Cave.

First song is a banger, the rest is decidely "eh"

It is fine, definitely not his best work.

Classic. The lyricism is incredible, the flow is impeccable, the beats are fantastic.

Nothing special

Very chill, loved it throughout.

I like Dylan, but this was a weak album. I started getting into it up when Don't Think Twice, It's Allright started playing, only to realize the album was finished and Spotify served me something else.

Very basic, thankfully it was less than 30 minutes long.

Didnt finish it. An hour too long and it is mostly experimental noise.

Very pop, not much else to say.

First couple songs I've hear in a remixed form in a completely different genre (jungle iirc) so that was a nice surprise. Beautiful voice, but not enough to woo me.

Brown Sugar is one of those songs that sticks with you for a few days, it is just so good. I wished the rest of the album hit that high but that sadly wasnt the case.

It is impressive that something this noisy can be so boring.

Album full of covers that are worse than their original. I actuallt like their sounds-it is nice and raw- but the covers suck. Best thing about the album is its length.

First song is great, the album peters out after that.

Nice old school beats but nothing special nowadays.

Very typical 80s pop music. Did not blow me away.

Good lyrics, voice gets annoying, though.

Interesting sound. Not very great, though.

Singer has an annoying voice, turned me off the album entirely.

I feel like I've heard this album a lot. Sounds great, but very similar to others in the genre.

I assumed I was going to hate this album. Wonderwall is a cliche at this point and the brothers have made a fool of themselves more than once over the decades. But you know what? It works. It's a very pleasant album to listen to and most of the songs work really well. Pleasantly surprised.

Nothing special.

Excellent breakbear album, could not top nodding my head to it.

Took me a few songs to get into it, but once I did, it became very good.

Good stuff, positive vibes, great beats, good message. Don't know what more you want.

What a strange album. But in a very good way.

Fun album! Just dragged on a little too long.

This album is exhibit A of how Lamar dogwalked Drake during their back-and-forth earlier this year. The man is sharp, smart, obviously well-read and extremely talented.

Nice folk sound.

Surprisingly full of bangers.

Oh, this difficult. First impression was "2 hours? For fuck's sake!" I automatically dock a star, it's just what it is. But then I heard that familiar beat, like an old friend who I haven't seen in years. It is a garage album! That genre I so loved in my late teens/early 20s. I got really into it, but near the end of the first hour, the repetition got to me and I still had another hour to. Once again strengthening my opinion: an album that long can easily lose half the tracks (or more) and it will always be an improvement. Cut the fat, stop being so in love with yourself. This could've been an easy 5 stars for me, if it did not outstay its welcome. Old friend or not, stop the yap.

Very basic britpop, easily forgettable

Excellence. Fantastic jazzy hiphop beats with socially concious raps. This is so good.

Nice music, lame lyrics.

Yeah, 80s coumtry inspired pop. Cant make me happy with that.

Sad stories told by the Chairman of the Board. Got a little old by the end of it.

Very old school, unique style but I got a bit tired of those simple 80s raps. The genre has evolved over the years.

God what a noise. Good noise at first, but it also gets old quick.

Very very very standard. Idk why it is on the list. Not that it is bad, but is it one of the best albums ever? I can't see it.

Couple good songs on this album, especially Celebrity Skin, but mostly mediocre.

This man is horny. I wanted to give it 4 stars, but the titular track pushed it over to 5.

The kind of punk album I could've sworn I've already heard on this list.

Little bit monotonous sound but decent. Good lyrics.

It's a (fake) movie soundtrack, but not like any of the good ones like Morricone, Poledouris, Zimmer, Williams, or countless others. Weird album.

Shout and Everybody Wants to Rule the World are great, everything else is just fine.

Good stuff.

2.5 hours and none of it is special in any way. Wtf is this.

Britpop, what else is there to say. It's not offensive, but not very good either.

Like the Beatles but slightly different. And I already dont care much for the Beatles.

Too sweet, did love the use of the Shook Ones sample. Great voice though, just not for me.

Lots of nice tunes, not entirely my taste tho.

So edgy, I cut myself several times. I can't take it seriously. Raining Blood was alright, I guess. It had a discernable melody.

Fun sound, but it didn't blow me away.

Passin Me By is what brought it to 5 stars. Classic album, fun album. These songs bring back a lot of memories.

I love funky music like this, but I felt something was missing. Cant put my finger on it, maybe them playing around with different genres?

Lots of good hits and very short. What more do you want?

Love drum and bass, but this album is too long. I dont even mind the 20 minute song much, it's pretty good actually. But half of the songs couldve been cut easily and the album wouldve improved immensely. Sad. I was happy to see another DnB album on this list (a little diversity after a shitload of britpop or obscure american bands from the 60s) but Ive got to be honest and say that this album just doesn't hit the 5 star level.

Pretty mid, songs go on for too long.

Old school Method Man and WuTang sound, whats not to love.

Pretty good for country album. That's high praise from me.

Never hear of him before, but this was great. Great beats with an old school feel, nice lyrics and flow.

Ironclad flow, beats that make it impossible to not nod your head and lyrics that still manage to make people upset after 24 years. What a follow up to the Slim Shady LP.

Normally I hate overly long albums (and I'm glad I found the review stating that the wrong album is linked, because that one is over 3 hours long), but this flew by. I love jungle music so much.

Blegh. Boring, mostly. 1 star for effort, I didnt actively hate it.

Very edgy, so-so music.

Lots of shouting, weird. Couldnt get into it.

Made a cold miserable day feel warmer. Chan Chan is an amazing opening track.

Very mid.

Good. For a country album. Mercifully short.

Couple good songs, boring stuff otherwise.

It's fine, nothing mind-blowing. Decent lyrics but I doubt anything will get stuck in my head

So boring, im sure this is great for some people, but for me I was done after the second song.

It is alright.

So many hits on this one. The songs in between didnt really stick, tho.

If I listened to any individual song, I wouldn't be very impressed. But as an album it is fantastic how so many genres are woven throughout. You never know where they're taking you next and that gives it a lot of charm. Fun!

I respect what this album did for music, but I'd be lying if I said I loved it.

Not bossanova and forgettable to boot.

Absolutely wonderful. Politically engaged, sharp lyrics accompanied by good music and the soothing voice of Marley. Can't get enough of these songs.

It's fine albeit a little dated

Okay stuff but dragged on a little too long.

Very sweet, too sweet. Despite that, it wont really stick with you.

I didn't look up the translation, because I don't roll this way. Good music is good wether I understand what's being said or not. And this was good. The type of music that makes you feel like youre walking in a dream, or as a character in a movie when you walk through the familiar streets of your hometown. Music that gives you goosebumps because it just hits the right way. That's all you really need. Only complaint is that it dragged on a little too long.

Ok rock album, not much to say. Singer was hard to understand at times.

Way too long, but it sounded alright.

Nice and energetic. 2hrs tho, pah.

Listened to the deluxe version. I love this type of music, but barring the song sung by Hayes, this was capital b Boring. Songs dragged on too long, album was too long. Woudlve been better as a medly.

Couple great songs, mostly mediocre overall.

The best song are at the start and then it meanders on until the end

Forgetabble but inoffensive.

Very late 90s, early 2000s. Cant say I missed it much.

Very cool mixture of different styles and cultures, this is the stuff I enjoy finding on this project.

It's not bad, but I rather listen to the originals.

It's alright but it all started to sound the same real quick.

Sounded alright, but it lost me once they started doing covers.

It's alright, heard better in the genre

Consistently drew me in.

Decently played blues, but it feels like it misses the soul.

Luckily it is not garbage, I enjoyed it enough. It just didnt blew me away as I suppose it did to others. Felt very samey very quickly. Good background music, though.

No suprise it didn't leave much of a mark when it came out. It is pretty standard, nothing mindblowing.

Maybe I'm missing something, but it was very basic. Probably should have been there.

I don't think I finished the majority of songs on this album, which is a rarity. Painfully boring, that's my main takeaway.

Dull.

Every song a banger, loving the Marley influences throughout. Liked the little interviews in the classroom too.

I did not like the singing at all.

Depressing, edgy and worst of all: boring.

Country *and* boring. Pass.

Love the diversity of genres on this album, although I felt it kept going on a little too long. 1 hr was too much.

Weird noises, weird music and boring to boot.

Made me want to take a train. In all seriousness, this was a hard listen. Repetitive, and not at all interesting.

Weird album. It was a constant ebb and flow between digging the album and wondering wtf I was listening to. Sort of enjoyed it, I guess.

Boring, derivative, each songs sounds like the other. Glad it is over.

Awesome album, every song is great.

Really good music, just one or two songs that didnt do it for me.

Idk why everyone is nasty about this album, there is a lot of good on here. Funky, disco, tight beat. Ostentatious coke-fueled 80s vibe. What's not to love.

It sounds good and all, but it never gets great.

Decided to give it full points because damn... every song is good and it is not too long. Just great.

Very troubadour, but I have to admit I like the band's later work better.

Great beats, great bars. There's not much else to say.

Even though I was freezing my ass off listening to this, I felt warm inside. Not as great as other Bossa Nova on this list, but still good enough.

What an amazing album, short but very powerful. Vibes so funky, it cured my arthritis!

Wow, an Abba album my mom didn't listen to death. It's fine, didn't blow me away. Very similar to their other work, light Disco for people who don't listen to Disco.

Idk. This is one of those albums on this list where I enjoy listening to it, but will also forget about it within a few days.

Someone else already made the "bla" joke, but it really fits well.

Great beats, decent lyrics. It just felt a little too much like Public Enemy. Not as orgininal as it couldve been.

Didn't finish it. I like Dylan, but not enough to listen to an hour and a half concert. I don't think concerts have their place on this list, really. Unless it it is really exceptional (this wasn't it)

Very 80s. I enjoyed it for what it is.

Nothing happens. All build-up and no payoff. I'm sure it was revolutionary when it came out, but even back then there were better examples of electronic music (namely Kraftwerk).

I love The Doors. I love so many songs of theirs. But this album was mostly a dud. The famous two or three hits were great, everythint else was a huge dud. Shame, did not expect this.

One of those albums I can't remember much of the next day.

Reminded me of a worse version of Massive Attack.

Interesting stuff. Can't say I enjoyed it all, but I kept nodding my head an it did grab me somewhat. Might need a couple more listens to truly decide if I like it or love it.

Beautiful voice and something entirely different.

Another Beck album, there are a lot of them on this list. It was alright.

Title song is great, the rest is same ol same ol.

It is a lot of noise, but within the noise there is a tight rhytmn that activated my almond.

This album sounds like it would be used in the background of a government PSA or work safety instruction video in the 90s. Boring.

Short and very sweet.

The best songs were the ones without vocals. The singing was horrendous. I had to go outside and listen there to make sure my neighbors did not think I was hurting my cat. It should be a 1 star, but the music itself wasn't too bad. It was pretty good, actually, just completely ruined by the singing.

Forgettable

Very 80s, but what a voice. The classics on this album (Private Dancer and What's Love Got To Do With It) are forever classics. Only thing that bothered me is that the album felt a little too long.

Very pleasant surprise. Never heard of him but wish I had 10 years ago. Cool combo of soul and rock and the quality stays up throughout. I want to hear more from him!

Excellent songs, but there were a few that just didnt reach that quality.

Chill reggae, just as I love it.

Couple songs on this album still sound great (the hits, basically) but overall it just feels really dated. Worst of all is that it really drags on, I had to start skipping tracks.

Cover album, what more is there to say? Id rather listen the originals even though this wasnt bad.

Boring, but not awful.

Wonderful old school hiphop. Great beats, good lyrics. No complaints.

This sounded awful. Looking into it more, it did not make it better. Someone should have told Beefheart "no" and not let this failed project get as far as it did. I honestly feel like the kid in The Emperor's New Clothes, where everyone says it is amazing and all I see is a floppy dick.

Milquetoast is the word that kept jumping up in my mind while listening to this album. It doesn't help that it is over an hour long, I feel like all that couldve been said musically was said in the first 20 minutes. Mr. Blue Sky is a nice song, though, but that is the only one that really stood out to me.

I don't like country and this album did not convince me otherwise. What a drag.

Great music. Love her songs. This album gives plenty of nods to the classics but I cant get myself to call it a classic.

Boring, both in music and lyrics.

Lame.

Its amazing to finally listen to this album and recognizing so many small, throwaway lines as the basis of songs by other artists in completely different genres. *That* is influence.

Very enjoyable, although a little too long/repetitive.

When I was presented with the cover, i had to suppress a groan. Another 60s band where the band poses together, preferable in nature. But I try not to let a cover guide my opinion. Sadly it was just as expected: nothing special. Ive heard so many albums like this so far.

Interesting sound, especially for the time. Sometimes it sounds like youre listening to a much more modern album.

At least we have the titties.

Enjoyable, lots of variation.

I appreciate that this was an inspiration for many bands to come, but some of the noise that was produced made me grimace involuntarily. It's shite.

Smorgasbord of mediocrity.

Great album, littly too poppy for my taste, but the hits hit good.

This is the fifth Nick Cave album I have gotten. I get that people like Cave but enough is enough. I liked this album better than his other albums, but I still don't get it.

Enjoyed it, lots of skill on display here.

Unvelievably dull. I get Eno was ahead of his time, but it feels like it goes nowhere. Ambient shouldve been called meandering.

One of those rock albums that sounds a lot like other rock albums of the time. Nothing special.

When I read "proto-punk" I already lost all interest, but I was pleasantly surprised.

I must say, after hearing many Dylan albums on this list, that I kinda felt tired about the prospect of hearing *another* Dylan album. Luckily this one was great, probably one of his best.

Forgettable.

This album only strengthened my belief that you can best experience the Beatles through a Best Of compilation instead of the individual albums. On each album are one or two genius works of art while everything else is boring and forgettable.

More of the same, one of those artists who get all the hype and leaves me baffled.
