Too many shitty intros and outros ruining the songs/album. If they were separate intermissions and could be skipped from the album, then maybe it could be saved.
2/5. Shit.

Not Björk's best work, but good practice and I am glad she went solo later. This album just felt messy, she's just screaming with some shitty music in the background.
Birthday was a good song, everything else was pretty bad.

It's comfortable music that's pleasing to the ears, but I wouldn't listen to it again

In The Wee Small Hours
Frank Sinatra
Incredible voice, absolutely amazing to listen to in the background of a romantic movie scene, but sadly not pleasant to listen to on its own.
The old-school cadence and sentence structure makes it feel like I'm listening to non-stop ad libs, and the volume varies WILDLY withing a single sentence. Frank could be halfway through a lullaby and suddenly starts shouting the 5th word, shaking you out of your slumber ... just odd.
Gorgeous voice, great effort, but a 3/5 for me.

First song is a classic, and seems used in like every skateboard-ish commercial ever.
Supply and Demand is a fucking war crime disguised as a song.
And it just went downhill from there, like the Tony Hawk Pro Skater levels these songs belong in

No, this isn't it.
Most songs were too calm for my tastes, and despite me not liking La Grange much in Guitar Hero, it sounded even worse this time around.
They know how to play the guitar, but I'd like to see them play the guitar somewhere else.
2/5.

The Seldom Seen Kid
Elbow
Absolutely delightful.
The singer's excellent voice and range is accompanied by a band that knows exactly what it's doing. Pulling out all the instruments, and switching between being delicate and bold playstyles to fit any song.
There's quite a lot of variety on the album, but all of it is memorable and impactful.
5/5.

Let's Get Killed

Offensively boring.
The song Let's Get Killed was alright, but this whole album is just very mediocre beats played on repeat. There is zero progression throughout the songs.
You'll have a better time clicking through samples on Fruity Loops.

I like the part where Yoshimi goes " wop wop woooooop", but I am not sure if he had to do it for 5 minutes straight.
It's okay, it has a unique sound, feels interesting, but doesn't blow me away. I expected much, MUCH more from such cool art on the cover..
3/5.

Black Sabbath
Overall a solid entry.
Intro is cool. I assumed it was a talkative intro and then the second song was a banger, but it turned out to all be the first song.
Second song is a travesty, too much harmonica.
Evil Woman is awful.
And I should've listened to the song called Warning, because it was a warning for the god awful solo about 6 minutes in... dropped it there.
3/5 at best

This sound is a dime a dozen.
The first song sounds like a commercial, it feels like I'm being sold something.
This album/band is not horrible, it's just nothing special. I personally find it tiring to listen to.
And they've completely lost the fucking plot with Rococo.
There's like 30 more minutes of this shit, nah I'm good.

An absolute classic, with quite a bit of noise in between bangers of songs.
Paranoid Android and No Surprises are timeless, and while this album (and Radiohead in general) is forever ingrained in my memory for being amazing soundtracks to Ergo Proxy and Confessions (Kokuhaku) I can't give this the full 5/5 because a lot of songs are just a bit too noisy/weird..

Overall not a big fan of their more Rock-y sound, I wish they'd stick to their creepy electronic stuff.
I was thinking no song really stands out, but then Backdrifts hits with an absolutely wicked intro.
We Suck Young Blood could've been shortened to We Suck, that song is awful.
The whole second half of the album was disappointing to be fair..

Ah yes, chill and relaxing music that makes my blood boil.
I dreaded this album because i can't stand reggae, so i was surprised that the first song Natural Mystic was actually good. Maybe i was wrong about Bob Marley.
No, i was not. Reggae is still shit, and the rest of the album was hard to get through.
I'm being generous with a 3/5
