BlurI can see why this album is important. It feels like the beginning of something special. Captures 90s culture well.

As I get older, I appreciate Radiohead more. A lot of their songs still make me sleepy though. When it came out, I had no idea how political this album was. The blending of electronic and rock is really interesting. I can see how this influenced a whole wave of alt rock.
I never really fully understood James Brown until I listen to this live album. I get it now. He was a true showman.
This album perfectly captures living under Bush era politics and the beginnings of alt-rock. Peter Buck has such a unique sound that guitarists are still trying to replicate. I never noticed the punk and proto-punk influences before on the band's sound, but I should have. A solid album from start to finish.
It's clearly inspired by the Blues, but it's somehow lacking true emotion and feeling. Kind of like if AI generated Blues. Has 2 great songs, though. Overall, it's fine.
Getting this out of the way- Elvis was a horrible person who made money from "borrowing" from black musicians. That being said, Elvis introduced folks to music they wouldn't have been exposed to otherwise. This is a solid album and the beginning of something huge.
1977 and using no guitars. Cool to see the beginnings of new wave and synth pop. A little monotonous for me- decent background music.
Some of these lyrics didn't age well. That being said, this album is brilliant. Their punk roots are evident. Their sound is iconic. This was my first time listening to this album and I wish I did it sooner.
Muse has secretly been one of my favorite bands since I first heard "Muscle Museum" in high school in my quest to find bands with good bass lines. This album was a continuation of the group's evolution away from a Radiohead clone, leaning heavily into political and dystopian themes and experimenting with more prog rock, post punk, and new wave influences. To me, it doesn't touch "Absolution," but few albums do. Exceptionally solid from start to finish.
English punk from this era has a very distinctive sound. Personally I'm more a fan of US punk and how it feels more assertive. Surprised this band doesn't get spoken about as much--solid album.
This reminds me of the soundtrack to Two Point Hospital. Until the parade song. And then the kid song. What the heck are those???? This album went downhill from decent background music to unbearable noise quickly. No kids should ever sing on non-kids music.
This is the album I think of when I think of Blur, but not because of Song 2. I really enjoy the more serious/intense and less playful energy on this album than on their earlier releases. Beetlebum is an iconic song and a great start to the album. I can't not play along to the guitar riff in my head when the chorus kicks in. The last two songs are a little slow, though, and lead me to take off one star.
This album would be great to listen to on drugs. I see the psychedelic pop and neo-psychedelia influences. I forgot how many great songs were on this album.
Björk makes me feel what folks who didn't study contemporary art feel when looking at it- I have no idea what this is, I don't think I like it, but I feel like I think it's important and there are clearly lots of people who get it, so I will just smile and move on. Decent background music. I think I need drugs to get it, though. Update: the more I listen to this the more I think I like it. I think I'm getting it.
The beats and music are great. Most of the lyrics are narcissistic. Essentially it's my favorite part of 80s hip hop meeting my least favorite part of 90s rap. 4 stars for beats, 2 for lyrics, averaging to a 3.
This is a solid post-punk album. It doesn't particularly stand out to me from others in both good and bad ways.
The actual music is fine. Don't get me started on Maxwell's lyrics...
This is an iconic indie rock album that brings me back to high school when it first came out. Not every song is great, but the album paints a beautiful picture of 2000 NYC, like an impressionist painting. Also there's a syphilis reference.
This is decent background music. I'd like to listen to some of his source material over this album, I think.
This album brings me back to college- they played on our campus when I was a freshman. No one cared, though. I'm surprised by how much I like this album! Nice beats and lyrics--I'll have to check out more of their music.
This music sounds really familiar. If you isolate the individual drumbeats from the first song and arrange them in a circle, it unlocks a cheat mode that allows you to pass through solid surfaces at will. This album has a BPM of 125, the same as the heartbeat of a cat at rest. It serves as the inspiration for the iconic Belgian techno anthem \"Pump Up the Jam\" by Technotronic. Other musical acts whose names begin with 'T' include The Cure, The Isley Brothers, and The Velvet Underground.
One of the best live albums I've listened to. 5 stars for the music, 1 star for Jerry Lee Lewis as a person, averaging to 3.
The brilliance of this album is overshadowed by the gigantic hit she had.
This is like the GoBots's version of Bruce Springsteen.
It's fine.
Nice bass lines. I do like Public Image Ltd. I am getting tired of listening to albums by white dudes inspired by the culture of POC instead of music by those folks.
It's debatable if the Ramones were the first punk band. What isn't is how good this record is.
Boston's debut album kicks off with More Than a Feeling. What a way to kick off a career. Entire album is solid from start to finish. It's just great 70s rock without all the excessive and unnecessary bits.
This sounds like every decent 80s band...
I like it, but I wish it sounded more different than arctic monkeys.
I like it, but I wish it sounded more different than arctic monkeys.
This is incredible. On one hand, it sounds like blues-inspired African music. But then the blues was inspired from African music. So far, this is my favorite new discovery from this list. I've never heard anything quite like this, and I want to hear more! (And maybe figure out what they're saying...)
They lyrics are so poetic and complement the music perfectly. This was my intro to Pulp and I think I need to listen to more.
I thought the different time signatures were really neat. I think the music was interesting, but I wish it didn't include the lecture beforehand. Maybe as separate tracks?
I'm such a sucker for walking bass lines. This reminds me of home, specifically Cardy's.
This album is everything I hate about the 80s. Over-inflated ego of the lyrist. Bass replaced with synth. False depth. It's bad.
Music is great. Lyrics are clearly by a 19 year old. Doesn't remotely touch Back to Black, but most things don't.
I've always associated The National with music to fall asleep to. This should be something... It's interesting how the lyrics are written around the music, I feel like it gives their sound a different vibe from other bands. I think I might be liking this?
One time I listened to Idina Menzel perform random songs in a park. This album is like if that performance and Astrud Gilberto's Beach Samba had a baby. A very boring baby. I would love to know how exactly this album came to be. Who decided this was a good idea? This album is getting worse the deeper I get. I give up, I will not be listening to the final 4 minutes of the last song.
This album is fine, but glam rock is not for me. I cannot get into the over the top and excessiveness of the genre.
It's a Mingus album.
The beats are pretty interesting. This album is unlistenable because of the lyrics. Can Kanye rap about anything aside from how great he is?
Thus begins the Jason Newsted era of Metallica. I miss Cliff Burton. The production on this album is awful, and I'm not sure if it's a good or bad thing I can't hear the bass. Even if the bass wasn't mixed low, it literally just follows the guitar anyway. There is some solid guitar work here and it's not the worst I've heard Lars sound, though the drums and guitar sound a bit compressed.
This is the 90s alt rock version of a glass of warm milk.
I will admit, the album art for Iron Maiden always had me thinking a certain way about their music. Previously, Run to the Hills is the only song I knew. And boy howdy was I surprised by this album. The technical skill these guys have is very impressive.
Some duds on here
I feel like I'm listening to post-punk music, but this came out before punk! These songs are a little too long for me, though.
It's fine, though this is not the Neil Young I think of when I want to listen to Neil Young.
This is what I hoped the Astrud Gilberto on this list album sounded like.
Music is fine, but the genre is not for me.
Hauntingly beautiful.
It was hard to separate out this album from how most of its songs are very overplayed nowadays. The songs are very strong in songwriting ability and I remember and can see why the album was as big as it was. The album does seem to drag a little at the end.
Yes, the band and the music is pretentious. Still solid, though.
I listened to this album twice and had two different experiences. Using headphones made me appreciate how intricate the music is. I was really missing lower octave notes, though.
This album didn't make me feel one way or the other. Which, maybe I should rethink my rating scale because music should bring out emotions, even if that emotion is hatred.
Hauntingly beautiful. Not a fan of it reminding me when I was a depressed 14 year old (lmao compared to currently a depressed 38 year old).
While this isn't the strongest White Stripes album, it's super solid. I love their sound and influence of blues and garage rock.
I'm pleasantly surprised! I'm not into this genre, but this was a fairly decent example, though it feels like it's soooooo long. Standout track- Around the World.
4 stars for the album. 1 star for Morrissey's personality
I really hate how much I am enjoying this album. I still hate Kanye as a person and overall his later music. Ah, this last song is the Kanye I know and hate...
I had no idea how intricate their music is.
Have I just been bamboozled into listening to Rod Stewart?
The lyrics are interesting. The synth/keyboards kills it for me.
Is every Lynyrd Skynyrd song like 18 minutes long? Or do they all just feel this way? 3 stars, -1 star for racism.
Herbie Hancock is always someone I wanted to listen to but just never did. This is an interesting album but I found the bass lines lacking on some songs. Really cool fusion of funk and jazz.
It's weird this is the Foo Fighters album they picked for this list as they have better albums in my opinion. The other day I was talking to an internet buddy about why I don't like the Foo Fighters a ton (they sound like a generic rock band) and he made a good point- they sound like that because their sound has been copied so much it's now generic. Anyway, decent album, not their best. Band has been ruined for me because of their support of some crackpot theories and organizations about AIDS.
Wow, does this album sound different than their first. I'm pleasantly surprised!
Just because you can make something doesn't mean you should. The music was cool but the whole album felt like it was lacking substance. Maybe it's because I feel like soundtracks should compliment and help drive the story instead of telling the story.
3.4
Jazz double albums are very long. I'm not generally a fan of live recordings, but this was a great example of one. Sax solos were epic.
The badass album cover actually live sup to the music. Wow wow wow!
my bloody valentine is a band I always confuse with My Chemical Romance. I am aware the two bands are nothing alike. I'm not really into shoegaze, but I could appreciate the guitar work on this album.
If the people who wrote the music and performed the music were given credit for it, I would rate this album much higher. I'm getting tired of all of these British records stealing music from people of color.
For some reason I always thought Belle & Sebastian were a male/female singer songwriter duo where the male looked like, or may have been, Sebastian Bach. Boy was I pleasantly surprised to be wrong! I wish I got into this band earlier.
This was a great album. A very long, great album.
Brilliant Corners is one of the most incredible jazz songs I've ever heard.
This might be one of the best rap albums I've ever heard.
I am really enjoying their sound. They've clearly influenced many other artists I like.
All alt rock from this era came from this album. Some of my favorite Pixies songs on here.
The first 6 songs are pretty great. And then you realize how stupid the lyrics and vocals are of every RHCP song.
I can see the massive influence this album had on a lot of the music i listened to in high school.
Kind of cool to see lyrics like this coming from a woman. She's no Dolly, though.
I love his voice. Instrumentals are awesome. Songs are way too long- punk music has killed my ability to listen to a song longer than 5 minutes.
I feel like everyone around me loves Bowie. No matter how hard I try, I just can't get into his music. The excessiveness of glam rock just isn't for me.
I understand why this album is on here, but this genre isn't for me.
I enjoyed this album more once I got past the grit of his voice.
"Why isn't everyone trying to sound like U2? It's not a very cool thing to do Why would you want to sound like U2? Just press record and play it straight through"
This album is pure genius. Trent is a master of weaving musical textures together as well as playing with the dynamics of loud vs quiet. A powerhouse of a concept album.
This album feels like the beginning of soul. Relevance to this list: 5/5 Personal Enjoyment: 3/5
The "live" aspect didn't really enhance this record much.
I know this was an important album. I really enjoyed the beats and the sound of Snoop's voice. But boy howdy these lyrics... Relevance to this list: 4/5 Personal Enjoyment 2/5

I think I like the idea of Pixies more than I like their music.
This might be one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard. It stands strong on its own as a concept album as well. I'm blown away. ::shakes fist at that other \"soundtrack without a movie\" album::
Not what I was expecting.
Goes to show you shouldn't judge an album by its cover. I'm surprised I really liked this!
I feel like they were just trying way too hard to create a sound and vibe. I rarely say this, but the drums are killing this album for me.
One of my favorite albums of all time.
WOW. I think exposing me to more jazz with this project led me to appreciate this album more. The blending of hip hop and jazz is perfection. Lyrics are insightful and reflect NYC life of the 80s/early 90s.
This album reminded me of background music id hear at a grocery store. Perfectly inoffensive and unremarkable.
When this album first started I wasn't feeling it but by the 4th song it really grew on me. By Tennessee I was a fan.
This really brings me back to college, walking around campus with my iPod. Relevance to this list: 5/5 Personal enjoyment: 4/5
I'm In Love With My Car is a horrible song. I can appreciate and recognize Queen's greatness, however, the music just isn't for me. Too excessive and glitzy. Relevance to this list: 5 Personal enjoyment: 3

Given my love for punk and 80s alt it's remarkable I've never heard of this band before. Where have they been all my life? Kind of cool the drums don't really use cymbals. Personal enjoyment: 5/5 Relevance to this list: 4/5
There were moments I enjoyed very much. There were also moments that put me to sleep. Overall I liked it more than I thought I would.
Interesting to see how early this album was released given its sound.
I love me some CCR.
Chris Cornell's voice is so iconic. Album felt a little long, though.
What did PJ Harvey do to Nick Cave?
I think listening to all of those jazz albums helped me appreciate this album more. While I appreciate the importance of album, it's not for me.
I thought the sound of this was pretty neat.
This album seemed to drag on.
Iconic.
My introduction to Common was when he was hosting a furniture making competition show. I enjoyed this album equally as much as I did that show.
I really hope this album wasn't included over Zen Arcade. I feel like that album is much more important and influential than this one. Relevance for this list: 3/5 Personal enjoyment: 4/5
I think I can listen to Q-Tip rap all day. (That's not true, I can't listen to that much rap. But I'm really enjoying his catalogue and blending of hip-hop, jazz, and soul.)
This is actually one of my least favorite Beatles albums, though Yellow Submarine takes that cake. I feel like it runs a little long and there are some fillers like Revolution 9. I really dislike Why Don't We Do It In The Road? Relevance for this list: 5/5 Personal enjoyment: 4/5
