"Django Django" was one of the bands I meant to listen to for a long, long time. So when 1001albumsgenerator revealed the album to me, I couldn't wait any longer. I wasn't disappointed! Now let's click the repeat button and play "Default" nonstop. ;)

Welcome human! You request has been approved! Album review: "The Man Machine" by Kraftwerk PROCESSING... 10%... 60%... 100% REVIEW GENERATED! Algorithmic creativity, smoothly blending electronic beats with synthesised melodies to create a harmonious sonic experience. BEEP!

"If they say I never loved you You know they are a liar"

"Don't judge a book by its cover" was my first thought after listening to the first song. The cover, after all, is horrible. Based on it, I was expecting a 1/5 album. I appreciated the first song and that's it - unfortunately, the longer I was listening the worse it got. Don't give me hope and then take it violently!

Remember that day your mom told you to stop singing? Yeah, well. Then why did you release an album?!

No, no. Just no. The harmonica just isn't for me. Except for it, the album was fine it easily blended into the background. So easily that, to be fair, I could quickly forget that I listened to this album.

I should get to know Peter Gabriel's work better. This album was really good. It won't surprise anyone that I liked Solsbury Hill the most and Here Comes the Flood takes the second spot. I really appreciate the diversity of this album.

...yawn so boring. Is it really an album I had to hear before I die?

Yesterday I'd give it a strong 4 out of 5, yet today it's 5/5. Maybe it's my good mood, idk. Anyway! I had a great time listening to this album. Even the harmonica couldn't take away my pleasure.

I liked it. Nice to have it in the background.

Similar to Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde - I could easily forget that I listened to this album. It's fine in the background, nothing special.

I think I should get to know Elvis's music better. It's nice to listen to, unfortunately easily gets repetitive. I love his voice and charisma.

"Going Home" made me love the album. I can hear how the musicians feel the pleasure of playing the song. It's interesting to read about the history of the Aftermath. I didn't know that there were such big differences between UK and US markets.

What's there to say? It's a really good album.

It's one of the albums I had saved on my telephone back then when Spotify didn't yet exist. "Okay, boomer!" - somebody yelled in the distance. Anyway, I could listen to it on repeat. One of my favourite albums ever. Maybe not top 10, but definitely top 100. That makes me think... What's my top 10?

How do I rate an album which makes me think: "Hmmm, interesting"? I guess it's a 3.6/5 The music isn't very memorable, for sure the cover is. Favourite songs: Rendez-vu and Red Alert

I liked it. Nice music to chill to, to have in the background. Great rhythm

Mixed feelings "eh, it's not that bad" with "when will it end??". Nothing changed in my life after hearing this album

Psst. Hey, you! Yes, you! Let me tell you a secret. Please don't tell anyone. Even though I consider myself a big rock fan, until today I haven't listened to any R.E.M. album yet. I know their songs mainly because of various radio stations. Alright. What about the "Document" album? I liked it. I appreciated that it felt homogeneous, and created a whole. 4.5/5

I feel as if it's a random compilation of songs not an album on which the order is important. Huuuge disadvantage. Altogether I liked the songs. 3.5/5

Ugh, no. She's constantly howling. I could only listen to it because of background music.

Reaaaaally good! 4+

I think this album was my second step of my relationship with electronic music (the first one being Daft Punk). Justice with their kind-of-chaotic music opened a door to a whole new world to me. The thing I appreciate the most about Cross album is the feeling of unity of the whole album, I love it.

It was tough to decide how to rate this album because of how much it sticks out from the rest of the albums I listened to. Alright, let's try it. In my opinion, Frank Sinatra's work is an excellent representation of his decade - both his music and the text (sometimes with sexist remarks). I appreciated the general vibe of this album, even though sometimes it reminded me of old Christmas songs. Weird, I know. :')

Thank you, next.

She has a beautiful and powerful voice, it was a pleasure to listen. All of the songs were creating a strong, unite whole. In my opinion it's much better to listen with headphones on.

I may have heard it a million times. Who would have counted it? Nevermind...

The album has its moments. "Water from a vine leaf" is amazing, "The story of the light" 5/5. Unfortunately... the album quickly gets boring.

I get it - he's the King of Pop. And I must admit, his artwork is thrilling (lol), but after all these years he has become quite dull to me. What is more, the album feels more like a compilation than an album. Just a mix of different sounds, and yeah, deal with it.

I'm glad this is over. Nebraska was such a boring album. I don't like his vocals, I hate the harmonica. Yawn. I gave it +1 point for the "Open All Night" track and for being consistent.

Take a pinch of Radiohead, add a bit of Coldplay, mix with Oasis. Then why, oh why am I SO BORED?

I assume his mom didn't tell him to stop singing

Okay, I guess. Nothing special, nothing bad either. Not my vibes.

Rock Lobster is one of my favourite songs. Great energy and creativity.

This is one of the albums you should listen to with your headphones on or with the best speakers. I highly recommend listening while the sun is setting or during the night. The album is really good, it has some magic in it, but I couldn't yet fall in love with it. I wonder why it's categorised as a rock album.

"Django Django" was one of the bands I meant to listen to for a long, long time. So when 1001albumsgenerator revealed the album to me, I couldn't wait any longer. I wasn't disappointed! Now let's click the repeat button and play "Default" nonstop. ;)

I'm shocked that this album is so... unpleasant? I expected something different. Sometimes Sting sings out of tune, ugh. The rest of the music is good. Only 2 songs were good, the rest were so-so.

Being innovative, unfortunately, often means that you won't be a master of a particular skill - voice sampling in this particular case. The album seemed dull. To name at least one advantage: I like that cover.

Remember that day your mom told you to stop singing? Yeah, well. Then why did you release an album?!

I need to listen to the album with my headphones on and without any distractions. It's a masterpiece.

Having a broader grading scale available here on 1001 albums would be nice. "Gasoline Alley" by Rod Stewart is better than 3, but not good enough for a 4. Oh no, the first world problems. I'm sorry Rod, you're getting a 1-star rating. His voice is intriguing. As if he had a great party yesterday and now he's singing with a huge hangover.

Tonight, tonight... I'll rate this album tonight. Yes, tonight... Huge respect to the band for recording a 2-hour album that is not boring. I think their recording session might have been one of the most productive sessions ever made. Billy Corgan's voice is interesting. It fits those instruments perfectly. I'd give the album 5 out of 5 if it was shorter.

At first, I was disappointed. Truly disappointed. Maybe my expectations were too high. They were based on a couple of songs I knew, and this album seemed um... nothing special. The only song I truly liked was (obviously) Pinball Wizard. Everything changed when the fire nation attacked. No, wait. That's not what happened. This album was a massive surprise after reading its description. Wow, one of the first rock operas? An album that tells one whole story? I'm impressed! I admit, it's not one of the best albums ever, but pioneers usually aren't perfect.

I don't buy into the hype, and I don't feel what's so special about this album. Bowie's voice sometimes feels like howling. Okay. It's interesting to observe a creation of a person influenced by drugs.

Great energy and an incredible "Maggot Brain" song. 4.5/5

I like it, it's lovely. The album forms a whole, and the songs fit each other. Well, except for "Layla". Don't get me wrong, the song is brilliant! It's just that it sounds out of context.

Music pleasant to listen to, easily blends into the background. The biggest flaw - as soon as I finish I forget the content. 3.5/5

It's been more than 50 years, and tracks such as "Gimme Shelter" still rock! Wow. Let's switch "Country Honk" to "Honky Tonk Women" - it's much better.

The more I listen to it, the better it gets. At first it was a 3/5, but now it's a 4. "Sweet Life" is my favourite

a nice album to chill to. beautiful voice. Although is it really an album I have to hear before I die? It's not memorable. btw, I love a review I saw today "I appear to have wandered into a Starbucks."

Today I decided to return to 1001 albums after a week-long pause. *click* "did not listen", and the next album showed up. Judas Priest - British Steel? No way! I listened to it last Wednesday - it must be destiny or a sign. What do I think about the album? I can appreciate a good album if I hear one and for sure it's an album we must hear before we die! Its history and influence on other artists speak for itself. The best tracks: Breaking the Law (obviously), Living After Midnight, United. I've to admit I can't stand looking at the cover.

Boring. Forgettable. Squawking at the end. Thank you, next.

So this is what space music sounds like! Woah!

I can listen to it in the background while working or cooking. However, it's nothing special.

Thank you 1001 albums for a new discovery! Earth, Wind and Fire, it's been a pleasure to listen to your music.

I keep thinking what would be the best mood to listen to this album. Laying on the grass with a glass of your favourite drink? The album has some good tracks, my personal best is The Stars of Track & Field. I can't rate it as 4/5 because I don't like the manner with which he's singing.

3.5/5 This album is inconsistent. It has some amazing hits - "Sledgehammer" & "Big Time" are great. And some songs make me think "How did it get in here???". After all it deserves a 4 out of 5

Stunning voice. I would appreciate this album the most after a breakup or while drunk. Unfortunately, I don't fully value an album which mainly consists of covers. After all: mixed feelings...

Great vocals and amazing energy, but nothing more. However, isn't that what punk's about? (art punk & dance-punk, according to Wikipedia)

I'd give it 5/5 if it only had Suspicious Minds. However, I should rate the whole album and there's nothing exciting about it

I can feel a spark of magic in this album. It reminds me of The Snow Queen. Lol, I've just realised that Bjork is from Iceland. Coincidence? I don't think so. I have a love-hate relationship with Vespertine. There is a lot of beauty in the album, but also there are some tracks which should be skipped.

The perfect album when it's grey outside and you don't feel like doing stuff. I appreciate its consistency and how hypnotic it is.

Oh yesss, psychedelic rock. My favourite And that voice!

Boring. I even liked the beginning, but the further I go the worse it gets. Thank you, next.

Shadowboxin' and B.I.B.L.E. are interesting, the rest of the album is quite bland, repetitive. I don't really feel the vibe

Amazing debut! Great energy. Much, much, much better while listening on headphones. I'd love to see them live. I'm shocked at how many of my favourite songs are on this album.

I love Moby His performance in 2022 in Katowice (Fest Festival) was one of the best concerts I've ever been to I love his songs But damn, this album is more like a medley or a compilation. The songs haven't got any connection between them whatsoever. I'm here to rate albums, not individual songs

I've heard "Alright" before, it stands out from the rest of the songs. Even though it's a one-hit wonder album, I liked it. Great energy

Some of the songs are cool. Yet, parts of the album, are almost invisible, playing in the background, one after the other. I like the singer's voice when she's singing, but not so much when rapping. Talking between songs is a huge minus. I think I might be allergic to all those "yo" and "aha aha". Doo Wop 5/5 Lost ones 4/5 Overall: mixed feelings

not my vibe. it bored me "Let's pretend we're married" and the beginning of "D.M.S.R." are good

if I don't rate it a 5/5, Ozzy Osbourne will hunt me in my sleep. am I being paranoid?

"Don't judge a book by its cover" was my first thought after listening to the first song. The cover, after all, is horrible. Based on it, I was expecting a 1/5 album. I appreciated the first song and that's it - unfortunately, the longer I was listening the worse it got. Don't give me hope and then take it violently!

take a handful of boredom, add a pinch of an ugly male voice, and some sad guitar in the background - that's the recipe for the album.

I'm glad I got this album - it's great. It's a 9 out of 10, so a strong '4' or a weak '5'.

I could feel the author's hatred, pain and disgust while listening. Probably that's why I wanted this to end so badly. All around me were negative feelings... I'm giving it 3 out of 5 because the artist can convey feelings through their art, however, their art style isn't unique, and I don't appreciate the vocals.

The 00s was a crazy decade. Sex was omnipresent in pop music. Here in "Stripped", sexuality is also clearly visible, yet, the album raises topics such as self-respect and feminism. Respect to Christina! Incredible energy, beautiful voice, wow

Boring, noting special, noting bad either

The beginning of the album is excellent. I love: Dance or Die and Faster. Wondaland is also great. The album is innovative, diverse, and memorable. Wow

Pleasant voice, nice for lazy afternoons. Unfortunately not really my vibe.

The album is the definition of boredom.

Nah. Not for me. The vocals are annoying, the music is boring. I wanted to finish the album as soon as possible and it shouldn't be on the list.

Easy to listen to, I liked it. Favourite track: This town

Pros: Nice background music. Pleasant voice. Cons: Recitation instead of singing. Disgusting plot: "This album is about a man hitting a 15ish year old girl on her bike with his Rolls Royce, who he then promptly falls in love with and seduces." It gets a 3 out of 5 thanks to good instrumentals.

That's a mix of 4-score songs in the beginning with some 2's and 1's in the end. That's why "Three that's the magic number"

I could give one song a 5 out of 5, yet the album altogether... meh. Too long, too repetitive. His flow is impressive, but it's not really my vibe.

"If they say I never loved you You know they are a liar"

Exhausting. However, I appreciate the variety this album offers - for example there are some funk samples. Also "Bodhisattva Vow" is quite surprising

Once Rufus sang "Still, I think I'm doing fine". Yes, he's doing fine, the album is nice. The first part is much better than the end, the album could be shorter. It was a pleasure to hear, I think I'll forget about it quickly. 3.5/5

Listening to it is - quote - "That's the last thing I want to do" I seriously don't need to hear it before I die. There're tons of bands like this.

Beautiful music

Boring

I think I've tried to rate it 5 times already. I start this album and I easily forget about it. It's not that it's bad... It's just soooo repetitive & boring.

Just the day before that album appeared on 1001 albums, I decided to listen to an album just because of one song that was on my favourites list for a long, long time. That song's name is "Take Five", and the album's "Time Out". And suddenly, the next day the album shows up in here! I've always thought stories like this happen only in fiction novels.

There's something special about this album. At first, I thought it was just a 2-hit wonder. "Stupid Girl" and "Only Happy When It Rains" seem different to me - or it's just the fact that I've heard it a thousand times. The rest of the album has some kind of boredom in it. Or rather "whatever" in her voice. They perform as if they don't care. That's unusual.

Average. Indifferent. As if The Clash played without energy.

It automatically gets a lower rating because of the background noises. It's tiring...

Chaos. There's something fascinating about it.

Why not "Back to Black"? Still, beautiful voice, great album.

An interesting new discovery. Pleasant sounds with not-so-nice lyrics. The longer I listen to it, the more attractive it becomes.

I liked the first half of the album, the second part gets boring. It's a strong 3 or a weak 4. I think there's some magic in his voice. 3.5/5

I feel how this album influenced the music industry. At first, I thought this album was younger. 1970-ish? Thank you Jefferson Airplane for influencing psychedelic rock! Somebody to Love & White Rabbit 5/5 Personal enjoyment: 4/5

It's one of those albums that plays in the background and you quickly forget about its existence. Except for one song - "I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night"

vocals: 1/5 instrumentals: 4/5 I liked the jazz influence. I'd appreciate the album much, much more if it had only instrumentals.

This album gets better and better every time I listen to it. I'm surprised that I appreciated the most not the song I already knew - and usually I do! Amazing vocals! Wow, good job Alanis!

Simply beautiful

My mind is confused about whether to love or hate her. The album's chaotic and appealing at the same time. It's entirely unique, it's hard to think of any other so distinctive debuts.

I like it, although I prefer "Only By The Night" album.

It's fine I guess. The beats are good - that's it.

It's been many years since I fell in love with Dookie. After all those years it still easily evokes strong emotions in me. 5/5

yawn. when will it end? It's not my vibe. Minus 1 point because of the lyrics

1. Creating a new apartment in the Sims 2. Just some random *twang twang twang* 3. My head hurts 4. Sudden teleportation to a classical music concert 5. Is that a museum of contemporary art in Dusseldorf? Someone left the kettle on at the end! 6. Why is it in here? 7 & 9. Those are actually nice! 8. Aliens are visiting or dialing a number on an old phone. 10. Looped sample. 11. And once again we're playing the Sims. Overall - I'm confused. That's not pop music!!!

There was 1 - ONE - song I liked. The rest was tiring, boring, monotonous. Rap isn't for me.

Sometimes it sounds like I'm at a construction site. The title reminds me of The Crypt of the Necrodancer, and unfortunately, it's far, far from it. Summarised in 3 words: boring, random, pointless. I was glad when it was over.

Why is there so much rage? What did the poor machine do?

a masterpiece. especially considering that this album is a debut!

When I see "Bee Gees" I don't want to hear such wailing. Please stop. It's boring.

Significantly better on headphones, best listened to in the middle of the night

First half 5/5, I could play it on repeat. The other? Meh.

One of the most boring voices mixed with good instrumentals.

Great energy

It can be seen, heard and felt that they were innovators. Always a pleasure to listen to some psychodelic rock

I easily forget that this album is playing. It might not exist and the world would remain the same.

First impression: "Boring. I don't get the hype." Yet, it got much better when listening on the headphones.

I love that global reviews range from "utter garbage" to "it's the best thing that happened to music" :D 5 stars for being able to stand the test of time so perfectly.

Maybe it's one of those albums I should listen to before I die, but honestly, it's boring...

3.5/5 he's just not my type...

That's the first time I've appreciated a part of a rap album. What a change! "Nuthin' But A "G" Thang" has a nice vibe. The whole album is too long tho. And come on... those lyrics? Nah 3.5/5

No, no, take this genre away from me. I can listen to country music only when I'm driving through USA or while playing Red Dead Redemption. I appreciate the story in the album, unfortunately, I can't stand his voice. Compared

I'd like to cut the album in half and rate it separately. The first part is amazing, but the second is eh. What's the best thing about the album? Those eyes!

I hate harmonica.

Now that's a love-hate relationship. A mix of songs that give me goosebumps with some that I can't stand. Yet, I'm here to rate albums, not individual songs. It would get a solid 5 if it consisted only of Time to Pretend, Electric Feel and Kids. Now with the rest, it's shit.

This one is weird. Appealingly bizarre. It's growing on me the longer I listen to it.

One of my favourites

How come they had only one album?! What an amazing energy.

My personal guilty pleasure.

This week I fell in love with the Beatles. It could play on and on and on. Yes... Don't stop.

Am I in a modern art gallery? For sure? Is my computer broken? No? Then what's wrong?

Oh, shoot! I can't wait for their next album!

Too monotonous.

The album would be much better without his voice. ugh. Maybe he's just not my type.

I liked it. Good energy, nice vocals. You go girl!

I can feel anger in the instruments, and boredom in the voice. How unusual. Yet, the whole album is too monotonous, repetitive.

That's the definition of boring.

I have mixed feelings about this album. Some of the tracks are terrible, I just have to skip them. And then there's "Wouldn't it be Nice" which is great. My enjoyment: 2/5 Did it belong on this list: 5/5

I hate his voice

Pleasant, but I don't get why it is on this list. It's nice to hear and that's it.

Beautiful voice. I needed to be in the mood for this album. It's good to study or to relax to. I'd love to hear it live.

It's intriguing. The album can be loved and hated at the same time. It got better with time, although you shouldn't listen to it on replay.

I need to feel in a mood to appreciate the album fully. It helps when there's heavy rain outside and I'm in with a cup of tea. I love that the album creates a beautiful unified whole. Sometimes they moan.

A good album with a great start.

The album is pretty but bland. This album lacks a unified character. It is more like a compilation of different artists. If the rest were as good as "Hotel California", it would get a 5/5.

I needed time to appreciate Elton John's work

I just can keep on listenin' and keep on listenin' and keep on listenin'...

I was glad when it was over. The background was nice.

The chaos of this album is mesmerizing. The further I go, the better it gets.

I hope my friends won't see this rating because they hate The Police.

Masterpiece

it's good

"Poor Boy" and "Sunday" 4/5. The rest is okay

Amazing album! I could listen to it nonstop. It's 4.5/5 because it's a bit too repetitive.

I can feel magic in this album

He sounds like a duck. It's bad.

Lots of memories linked to this album. Some better, some worse. That's what makes this album special, even though I won't listen to it often.

3.5/5 pleasant but hardly memorable

Wow, I rarely like hip-hop/rap but this is amazing. Lauryn Hill's voice is beautiful. I get goosebumps when I hear "Killing Me Softly". How did they achieve it? The album is diverse and forms a homogeneous whole at the same time.

The title of the album is truly accurate. The songs are tragic.

Nothing special

Boston, it's not about you, it's about me. I appreciate your influence on the music industry, but sorry, your music is quite repetitive.

Disturbing. Scary. Gloomy. Depressing. Unique. It's beautiful that an album can evoke such feelings. I suggest changing the name of the band to Joy Subtraction. 5-

One of the most beautiful voices ever

Pls stop giving me with live albums

Nice

It's perfect for an evening with friends. Music, something to drink and long conversations.

"Touch too much" is my favourite

Not my type

Boring, nothing special. I was waiting for it to end.

4+ The beggining is a 5, the end a 4.

Honestly, I don't know how to rate it. Sometimes intriguing, sometimes squawks

Quite pretty yet boring

Alright

Welcome human! You request has been approved! Album review: "The Man Machine" by Kraftwerk PROCESSING... 10%... 60%... 100% REVIEW GENERATED! Algorithmic creativity, smoothly blending electronic beats with synthesised melodies to create a harmonious sonic experience. BEEP!

How she howls... My head hurts

That's a good album. 4+

Too long.

I don't have to hear this album before I die.

Great energy

Nice vocals. Unfortunately I don't think I'll remember the album for long. The album was okay and that's it.

If not the most beautiful, then one of the 5 most beautiful female vocals.

A number of positive surprises. "Without You" is beautiful, "Gotta Get Up" has a Beatles vibe. Overall - an interesting diversity

No, the album shouldn't be on the list. The elevator music of 1971.

No...

A beautiful start

"AI, please generate a hard rock album." And that's how this album was created. Nice guitar riffs.

It might be band's goal to dislike the album. Ugh. My head hurts.

There's some kind of magic in this album. Mbube track was an interesting surpise. 4+

Should other people's views affect the reception of their music? Tough question. This is the rating of the music, not the person.

It has potential, but gets boring easily. Great instruments, but not my type of voice

The album gains a lot when listened to without stress, without distractions, without rush. Just me and the music. Yes please

So tiring

The title speaks for itself. It feels like an intro to an album, so please tell me - where is the actual album?

Amazing energy

Deep inside hear a voice saying "You HAVE TO like this album. It's Queen after all! It's Bohemian Rhapsody!". The album has it's moments, though it's not my favourite.

It has some classics

It'd be great to hear it live. 4+

I'd describe his voice as drunken or bored - it depends on the song. The only song I liked a bit is "Fame".

Sadness.

I've made some *changes* to my opinion about David Bowie after this album. As you can see, time may change me.

Easy to forget. Bland. Sometimes boring.

Noise all around me

That's the first time I'd found soul boring. There's one good thing though, thanks to this album, I've discovered similarities between soul and rap/hip hop.

Which button is the hardest to button?

Not my vibe

Why is this album here?

I highly recommend listening to the album on high-quality headphones. You can get goosebumps!

Me and Radiohead are not meant for each other.

Yawn

Yee-haw!

Nice in the background

Mixed feelings. Great instruments, so-so vocals

Please stop singing.

Let me tell you a story about Anita. In a land far, far away, there lived a man who owned a bakery with a young daughter. After she was born, he quickly recognised her beautiful voice and said to her: "You must sing to bring glory to your family!". "But dad... I want to be an astronaut!" "No, child. You must do it!" The whole story is fake, that's only a justification why I feel she didn't love what she was doing.

3+ too monotonous

5/5 start, and the rest is 4/5. One song got stuck in my head.

Arular is intriguing, yet it's exhausting and repetitive

Good instrumentals and that's it. It's bland and forgettable. After listening it's hard to distinguish at least one song from the album.

Am I being nostalgic? Perhaps.

I liked only one song, the rest was boring

Please stop singing. +1 star because of the guitar

The songs flow pleasantly in the background

Diversity

More like: My New Neutral Band

Change it to instrumental version and you'd get 5/5!

Good energy

He's either drunk or depressed. Maybe both?

Except for The Suburbs, the album is bland. 4-
