The first album I have to listen to with a song that's 10+ minutes. I have a long road ahead of me.
Is this extremely slow burn of an album worth it in the end for All Along The Watchtower and Voodoo Child? It's so close but just barely not.
THIS ALBUM IS SO AMERICAN I TOTALLY PAID ATTENTION TO THE LYRICS AND THEMES OF THE ALBUM USA USA 🦅🦅🦅
*1 second in* OW MY FUCKING EARS
I wasn't expecting to like this but it honestly goes kind of hard? The second half isn't as good as the first but this was a pretty good album.
I love hearing the same words over and over again
I got war flashbacks from having to hear Morrissey 's voice again. Why does this book like his music so much his voice is so irritating!
And I thought Ramones was repetitive
Yep that sure was a piano concert with occasional moaning in it for some reason.
Dear Robert Dimery,
You know there are good albums that aren't punk and grunge right? Like I've had to listen to 20 punk albums and it's starting to get tiring.
How has someone who has written lyrics for over 50 years still write some of the worst lyrics I've ever heard?
Mom, can we have REM?
Mom: No, we have REM at home.
REM at home:
This album was great but oh my god it was so annoying to find
The Eagles will really make one good song for every 10 bad or boring songs.
An album that slowly chips away at your soul and leaves with nothing in the end other than looking like the guy on the album cover.
DINGALINGALINGALING DONG DING DINGALINGALINGALING DONG DING DINGALINGALINGALING DONG DING DINGALINGALINGALING DONG DING
Goes into the forbidden realm of country music where it just sounds corny.
God I hate Morissey and his stupid sharpied-on eyebrows.
Did I listen to the right album? I'm pretty sure calling this "rock" is a stretch.
There was a guy in one of my classes who would play this on his computer (it was so loud you could hear it through his headphones) and all I could think is "Who would listen to this unironically?" After listening to this I think I'm even less sure.
No wonder this is called Imperial Bedroom, Elvis sounds like he's about to fall asleep the entire album.
Mediocre music with mediocre vocals. I don't really think I needed to listen to this before I died.
I almost really like this but the aimless jamming just goes one for a bit too long.
If you are under some very, VERY, heavy drugs you might get something out of this? But as someone who does not do drugs, this feels like a waste of 2 hours of my life.
This sounds like something that spotify would put on my discover weekly.
This music absolutely funks
I just want to know what Andy Summers was thinking when he wrote Mother.
It wasn't even that long but it felt like it took forever to get through
I AM SO GLAD THAT I DIDN'T SLEEP ON THIS FOR IT NOT LOOKING LIKE IT WAS ON SPOTIFY THIS GOES SO HARD
George: "Hey, I was wondering if a couple more of my songs could be put on the album?"
John: "Nah, sorry mate. We gotta have room for Yoko and I's 8-minute noise session."
HOLY SHIT THAT'S THE FUNNY DANCING TRIANGLE SONG
This album is. Not very good. I'd rate it. Two out of five.
Somehow only the second worst thing that Phil Spector ever did.
Probably the best Aerosmith album I've listened to and it's still mid.
I can't believe that a singer as big as Bon Jovi would rip off the hit "Squidward on a Chair" for his infinitely worse song "Livin' on a Prayer". Truly disgusting behavior.
Maybe modern country wasn't a mistake?
I swear to God if I get one more Metallica album in a row I'm going to find a way to bring back Napster just to spite them.
Oooo I can just picture the Cheeto-eating, fedora wearing, ponytail having, katana wielding basement dweller who thinks this is the best album of all time.
It's Rumours. What do you want from me?!
I almost really like this album, but of course it wouldn't be a Sonic Youth album if the actual good songs were outweighed by the sheer amount of pretentious bullshit.
What a nice album to get after the 4th of July.
Gotta love how most of the worst albums stretch to near or over the one-hour mark just to extend your suffering for as long as possible.
An album as good as its cover.
I got really scared when I saw this album cover because I thought it was just gonna be Madonna doing country badly. After listening to this album I wish it was just that.
Less like music for the masses and more like music for a bad Netflix show.
Reminds me of Scum but without the kindness to have 30 second songs.
You gave this album a low rating because Eric Clapton is an anti-lockdown, anti-vaxx, racist piece of shit.
I gave this album a low rating because Clapton just isn't that great of an artist when he's not backed by a great band like Cream or the Yardbirds (but also because he's an anti-lockdown, anti-vaxx, racist piece of shit.)
What an interesting little indie band, excited to see more of them in the future!
SEE???? Electronic music CAN be good! All it has to do is not be the same looping beat for 12 minutes to be good.
Those bongos were pretty incredible
The Undertones? More like... bad!
Oof. Really represents how I'm feeling on this very specific day.
Jesus, I still have one more Elvis Costello album to listen to?! I bet I could name 1001 artists who deserve an album on this list but didn't get one because we just HAD to have 8 billion shitty Costello albums on the list.
I genuinely don't know what to think about this.
This album is actually great, you all are just mean (the rap song does suck though)
80s cheese in its purest form (is still 80s cheese).
Bjork is carrying this album so hard and even she can't save it from being a 3.
An album! That you can listen to! With your ears!
This album gave me tinnitus.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW this album sucks.
More annoying than offensive if anything
Fuck Kanye but I can see why his fans are so annoying about him
Ugh. Reminds me of my gym class. Fuck that gym class.
Come on, it's not THAT bad. It's just not that great either.
I think that any album that straight up gives you a headache while listening to it is not that great of an album.
First album since I think Wonderful Rainbow that I just straight up did not finish. More like New Forms of torture.
Marvin Gaye is the one guy who could make whining about his divorce for an hour sound good.
Take notes Roni Size, take notes.
Another reason to hate the French
I'm about to unleash a primal scream after having to listen to an hour of this crap.
Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer. That means I solve problems. Not problems like "What is beauty?" Because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems. For instance, how am I going to stop some mean Mother Hubbard from tearing me a structurally superfluous be-hind? The answer, use a gun, and if that don't work... use more gun. Take for instance this heavy caliber tripod mounted lil' old number designed by me, built by me, and you best hope... not pointed at you.
Is this album good? No, not at all. BUT it was short so I don't care.
I'm sorry but the singer sounds like it's 2 in the morning and he's trying not to wake up his parents
Even when the songs were only 90 seconds long, they still felt just as long and the 9-minute closing track.
What people who don't like prog rock see prog rock as.
Everything I could want from an album.
I try my best not to be overly hateful of electronic music, but this list makes it really hard to do so.
I listened to this while driving to work and I thought that the bad audio was just my car being loud, but no. The production was made to make this album sound like it was recorded with a white noise machine in the background. Also fuck Marilyn Manson.
I sat here for an hour and all I got was this lobotomy!!!
Please. No more specials.
I half expected some guy to start screaming "HEY" in the middle of No Intention.
It's trash but it's my type of trash.
Looking forward to my public execution after giving this a 3 but giving Sweet Baby James a 5. The stretch from Golden Slumbers to The End is actually perfect though.
I will not remember this album in a week.
Did not need to be an hour and a half, especially when 40% was dedicated to George Wallace and Lost Cause glazing.
NORTH DAKOTA MENTIONED 5 STARS (but -1 star for mentioning North Dakota)
Worst. Birthday party. Ever.
Take the 4 and get out of my sight.
I've gotta go re listen to Daft Punk man.
Three words. Tomorrow Never Knows.
Listen in awe to this drunken karaoke night at the local Manchester pub.
This album is just nice and sometimes that's all you need.
Throw the second disc into the fucking sun and this album is still just meh.
Might've satisfied red snapper but it didn't satisfy me
My parents in 2002 (probably): Oh wow a double Outkast album? Sweet!
Me, 23 years later: UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
The Love Below is a 5 and Speakerboxx is a 2
This tries to sound all serious and talk about "the revolution", but the music sounds like it's for babies.
I unfortunately listened to this while eating a burger. Sorry heifer I do believe you were a beautiful creature.
More like the super boring music
Dear Robert Dimery,
I get that you're British and all, but I can assure you that there are better ways to represent the music of France rather than HON HON HON I LOVA DE FIFTEEN-YEAR-OLD. I felt like I was on a watchlist the whole time I was listening to this. The music itself is good though I cannot deny.
Taylor Swift if she made music for 16 year olds rather than 13 year olds.
Sometimes you get the Incredible Bongo Band and sometimes you get the Not So Incredible Conga Band.
I can't believe Woody would say this 😔
Someone PLEASE tell me why these guys have 2 albums on the list.
The guy who gave this a 1 for not being in English and everyone that upvoted it should be sentenced to listening to this for the rest of their lives.
