Beatles
5/5
Starting off with what will probably be the best album of the entire list.
The Velvet Underground
4/5
Duke Ellington

R.E.M.

Miles Davis
3/5
The Prodigy
3/5
Metallica
3/5
With very few exceptions (Bleeding Me being one), the orchestra make the songs worse.
James' singing in Master of Puppets is terrible.
2/5
The Clash
4/5
Sister Sledge
2/5
Album started off strong but the quality quickly faded.
The Sonics
2/5
Always loud, never interesting. Thankfully short.
Beck
3/5
This is the higher end of a three.
Supergrass
3/5
Another album where the one famous song isn't best
Destiny's Child
1/5
Never-ending. Who thought a double album for a singles-oriented girl group was a good idea?
Belle & Sebastian
2/5
The Pretty Things
1/5
Muck.
LCD Soundsystem
3/5
All My Friends is an amazing song. Still not sure if I really like Sounds of Silver or if it's annoying. Rest of the album is forgettable.
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
3/5
The Electric Prunes
2/5
Another boring 60s album from a band I've never heard of.

Would have preferred some Wee Daniel

3/5
Bob Dylan
4/5
Dylan's best album.
AC/DC
2/5
Hadn't listened to this in 10 years. Was enjoying the first few tracks before I remembered that I don't listen to AC/DC because all their songs sound the same and are about the same things.
Piss off/10.
Nirvana
2/5
Mostly a bunch of songs I don't know and don't care about.
The B-52's
