I love this album. Sooo…yep.

Groovin'

The Young Rascals

3/5

Quite easy to listen to and Groovin’ is a classic song. I don’t know if this is an album that everyone “has to hear” so I’m not rating it that high.

The Fat Of The Land

The Prodigy

4/5

Classic solid

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

3/5

I liked it and you can definitely hear how they influenced other bands.

Melody A.M.

Röyksopp

2/5

It’s just fine

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

3/5

It’s ok. Not my favorite style of hip hop though

Blood On The Tracks

Bob Dylan

5/5

Aladdin Sane

David Bowie

5/5

Deja Vu

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

5/5

So freakin good. I love these guys.

Rum Sodomy & The Lash

The Pogues

2/5

I don’t know. All the songs sound the same. It’s not bad but I don’t think I’d listen to it again.

Bandwagonesque

Teenage Fanclub

1/5

Blep. Why was this on here? I didn’t listen to the whole thing but it basically sucked.

Ten

Pearl Jam

5/5

Pearl Jam rocks my ass. I wish I would have appreciated them more when I was younger. This album rules.

Dear Science

TV On The Radio

4/5

How do you sound like the Cure and Prince and Bowie and Radiohead? I guess you be the dudes from TVOTR. I liked it and I’ll probably check out their other stuff now. I can’t decide if that deserves a five though so I’m putting four stars.

Groovin'

The Young Rascals

3/5

Quite easy to listen to and Groovin’ is a classic song. I don’t know if this is an album that everyone “has to hear” so I’m not rating it that high.

In Utero

Nirvana

4/5

Good thing I already know most of this album or I wouldn’t really be able to appreciate it over Eric’s singing and air guitaring.

The Real Thing

Faith No More

4/5

Perfect example of 80’s metal crossing into 90’s grunge time. I love it, but apparently Angel Dust is the one I listened to more.

Lost In The Dream

The War On Drugs

3/5

I guess I’m the odd man here. I didn’t hate this. But I look boo boo downer tunes quite a bit. Still don’t know that I’d rock out to this again.

The Poet

Bobby Womack

3/5

I generally enjoy this kind of music. I could put this on and carry on with my day. None of the songs particularly stood out though.

São Paulo Confessions

Suba

4/5

I love it. I will be rocking this another time. Probably like during the next party we have.

Odelay

Beck

3/5

Oh lord. I know this whole album, but that doesn’t mean it deserves to be on this list. It’s fine. So far most of the albums are “just fine” and I don’t know how I feel about that.

Femi Kuti

3/5

Approved. I must be listening to these albums at the right time because I don’t hate any of them as much as everyone else.

Dare!

The Human League

2/5

I feel like this is a band I should like, but I just can’t get into them. It’s not like this is a shit album, but even the most popular song is one I’ll change when it’s on the radio.

Fever Ray

1/5

This shit sucks. I didn’t even listen to the last few songs because it was bugging me so bad. I read some critic reviews saying it’s not catchy and you have to listen to it a bunch of times to get all the nuances. No thank you.

Ogden's Nut Gone Flake

Small Faces

2/5

Didn’t hate it. I felt like watching Austin Powers after I listened to it. I’m not sure if that’s insulting or not. I don’t think I’d listen to this again.

Graceland

Paul Simon

1/5

Nah. No. I don’t think this needs to be heard by anyone. The word that comes to mind is Fartknocker. It’s fartknocker music. Sorry Paul Simon.

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot

Wilco

1/5

Uuugghhh how many more shite albums do I have to be subjected to on this list? Boring. This is boring.

In It For The Money

Supergrass

3/5

Ok, this was pretty alright. Not fully my cup of tea but good and not annoying.

The Sun Rises In The East

Jeru The Damaja

2/5

Biiiitch! That is all.

Music

Madonna

4/5

I love this album. Sooo…yep.

Madman Across The Water

Elton John

4/5

Levon never gets old. This is good album. I’m going to start rating stuff one star higher because I feel like I’m low balling everyone.

Homework

Daft Punk

1/5

Fuuuck. So annoying. I don’t understand why people like this shit. It makes me want to pull my ears off. It’s like sitting with an annoying kid in class that keeps tapping on shit or something until you want to scream and punch him in the face.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Elton John

4/5

I like all the non radio played songs way more. This album is great.

Leftism

Leftfield

2/5

I know and like Open Up. I don’t really care about the rest of this album though.

S.F. Sorrow

The Pretty Things

3/5

Mmm. Meh. Sounds like 1968 I guess. Wouldn’t listen again, but wouldn’t be bugged if it were on in the background

New Boots And Panties

Ian Dury

1/5

I’m uh, I’m not real impressed with this fuckin list.

Rage Against The Machine

5/5

Fuck yeah dude. This album is great. You do have to be in the right mood I think.

Aja

Steely Dan

5/5

If you don’t like Steely Dan you need to check yourself. You can listen to this at a pool, in a bar, doing drugs, cleaning your house or on a road trip and it would be the appropriate selection.

In Our Heads

Hot Chip

1/5

Boooo! Shite.
