Sounds like video game music at the start of the first track. Album is very chill and I normally hate electronic. Love it.

Truly annoying.

Most of the album was nice and would have received 4 stars, but the last track sounded like a child found those random sound buttons on a Cassio. 3 stars.

Some of this is really good, but some of it is just noise.

It was chill to listen to, good background music, but nothing really stood out.

Honestly, kind of annoying.

Sounds like one long song, not much difference between the tracks. It's chill, but it gets a bit boring near the end.

Kind of annoying.

The singer's voice is so annoying.

This is just good, silly, fun. Very enjoyable.

Just good ol' nostalgic fun, this one. It's so goofy.

Noise

Nope. Not giving streams to him.

Gets annoying after a bit.

Human NRG sounds a little like video game music, so I wanted to like it, but the overall vibe of the album is just not for me.

Reminds me a little bit of Imelda May. Very chill, with a retro feel. I like it.

This one has some nostalgia bias from me, but I still love it.

I really like The Who, but I don't personally think this is their best album, besides Behind Blue Eyes.

Kind of meh throughout, kind of annoying near the end.

It's okay. Sec Machine made me feel like I had tinnitus.

On paper, I should love this, but... i just don't.

I don't know if it's beautiful, boring or annoying because it moves between the three so frequently I don't know how to feel. 3 it is.

This is mostly just random noise and it gave me anxiety.

The singer's voice is really annoying.

1000% yes, this is what I've been waiting for. So glad to sit and give this one a listen, I haven't heard the whole album in one go before and loved every minute. Albums like this are why 1001 albums is wonderful.

This may be a bias rating because I used to play this album over and over again, but it feels like an obvious 5 to me. The whole album is already in my music library, and they're just as good now as they were then.

I love the title song, because it's nostalgic, but honestly, the rest of the album is just kind of... eh.

I like the jam sessions, but it doesn't feel like a "must listen" album, even though I really like The Allman Brothers' sound.

Yeah, I tried... I really did. This gave me anxiety.

I find it hard to keep a straight face while trying to listen to this... he's so... spirited?

I liked the first three tracks, but the last one is not for me.

Random noise

Now THIS is a 5-star album!!!

It's okay, just kinda boring. Chill background music though.

Eh... kind of boring. Okay for chill background music, but nothing special.

ICONIC

hate this

I love Dancing in the Dark, but the rest of this album is kind of a snooze fest.

Honestly, this is just annoying.

I don't get it...

It's beautiful and relaxing, but not something I would seek out for any reason, really.

Very annoying.

This was one of my absolute favorite albums of all time when it came out, and I still adore it. This may be a nostalgia vote, but it gets 5 stars from me. Every single song is amazing.

I missed this one growing up, as I was more into rock at the time, but I love everything about this. The piano, her voice, the 80's structure and sound... all of it is perfection!

The screamo is not for me.

I like some stuff by The Kinks, but this album is kind of annoying, tbh. Especially "Drivin'"... it's grating. Not to mention, half the songs sound exactly the same. Not for me.

The songs themselves sound nice... but it's like I'm trying to listen to something I might like, but someone keeps being obnoxious and covering it up with horrible noise, so I can't even hear what's underneath. I guess that was the point, but... it's not for me.

Her voice is just... kind of annoying, and the songs sound too repetitive for too long. Can't do it. DNF.

(Listened on YouTube). Sounds like the soundtrack to a German musical play. Not that that's bad in itself... I honestly can't figure out how I feel about this. Like, it's kind of fun and oddly comforting, but it's also just... weird? xD Idk... I THINK I like it? My first instinct is to give it 3 stars because I'm so hot and cold on it, but because it has me so confused about how I feel... I think that deserves a bump to 4. xD

I like this, it sounds like it came from the early to mid 90's, instead of 2008. I'm glad he stuck with that sound instead of trying to modernize it.

You're goddamn right!!!

Definitely "ran away" from Albatross about halfway through. The sound of the rest gives me a bit of Talking Heads vibes but just... not as good? I'm not sure, I can appreciate the music, and the style of vocals, but I just think the vocals weren't done well enough to work. It quickly just becomes annoying. This is a shame too, because the music without the vocals is quite good. Fav track: Poptones Least fav: Albatross 2.5/5

Some of it isn't bad, but some of it is just too annoying, and brings the whole album down. (Looking at you, Conduit for Sale!)

Not for me.

I mean, obvi...

3.5 - i like it, but i also don't think it's all that special.

3.5 - not a fan of country, in general, but I find the older it is, the more likely I am to enjoy it.

Some of the songs are not nearly as obnoxious as everything else I've heard from Sonic Youth, but they aren't enough to save this album.

Not for me.

2.5 - it's mostly okay, but sometimes it's just annoying, like near the end.

very annoying

It's not bad... it's just not for me.
