1001 Albums Summary

Its like listening to the Beatles but not as good. Imagine is great if it wasnt tainted by fucking celebrities and covid. There were a few decent songs and some that i wished ended. Nothing from this album is going on any playlist of mine.

My mom used to listen to this band and I hated it. The singers voice sounds like if a leather jacket could speak. Leather Jacket Vocal Fry. The first song is bad. The off with yer head song that is popular is on here. The rest of the album is alright.

Paint it black is the best song on the album, its like not even close. Under my thumb is a fucking meme. There is a song on here that is 11 minutes long. A lot of the songs just repeat the same chorus over and over. Its not bad but its just kind of forgettable. Dirty Beatles. 4/10

Is this butt rock? Singer sounds like he is having his balls squeezed. I’ve heard Sharp Dressed Man but I think it was just the intro guitar lick. Music by Duck Dynasty. Kidney Stone Vocals. I need you tonight is BAD and tone deaf, did it really need two three minute long guitar solos? I Got The Six was ok, little too generic still. I literally thought the same song was replaying every time a new song started. Thug had slappa da bass solos. Were they in the Blues Brothers? “I like the enchiladas and the terriyaki too and even the chicken if its not too blue” - Z Top on the subject of Tv Diners. This music tastes like Nascar. What a boring repetitive album. 3/10

COME TO BRAZIL!!! Brazilian Funk, hell yeah. The ‘record scatching Animal Crossing noise’ (Cuíca Monkey Drum) stressed Mochi out. O Plebeu was a fuckin jam. Taj Mahal is a certified banger 🔥. His voice is great, the instrumentals are great, the back up singers are great, album is great. A História De Jorge was the weakest song and still pretty damn good. Super solid album from start to finish. This will make its way into my playlist. I have already relistened to this album 3 times. 9/10

Did you know that Kurt Cobain killed Dave Grohl and has been disguised as Dave Grohl for nearly 30 years? Scentless Apprentice - Mic peeking the song. Meat Eating Orchids is such a grunge phrase. Heart Shaped Box is the best song on the album easily. The songs where he is more soft sung and not angry yelling are much better. Very Ape is a certified banger. DOLL STEAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh cool a song about Milk, oh god…. I’m anemic royalty. l think I could taste the heroine from listening to Radio-Friendly unit shifter. The tonal whiplash from going from melancholic bangers to deranged bestial roaring is immense. This was a stressful album to listen to. 8/10

The best part about Blur is that they died to give us the Gorillaz. One song would end and I had already completely forgotten it. If you look up the definition of ‘generic’ it just says Blur. Once again these songs are way too damn long. I waited for a hidden banger but alas, said banger never came. I don’t like Song 2. I don’t like this album. If held at gunpoint and told to pick my favorite song from this album, I would die. 2/10

Ooooo its the Violent Females. Adult Books was a jam even it was a little repetitive and went on a bit too long. They really could have used better mics and it would have made these songs 100% better. I like punk because they get to point, they scream at you for a minute n a half and leave abruptly. In this house that i call home has a smooth bassline. Female singer sounds like one of the chicks from the B52s. I enjoyed the dueting punk style of the two lead singers, their vocal styles complemented each other. A few of these songs sounded a bit similar and could have used something to set them apart from each other. The songs themselves were a bit repetitive but don’t overstay their welcome, so it works out. Still a pretty solid album that makes me want to listen to The Violent Femmes. 7/10

The woman in the album art looks like she gives teethy blowjobs. At first I thought it sounded like the rolling stones. Then he started singing and it was like Devo was fucking David Byrne. He sounds like he is being viciously shaken while singing. This guy definitely did acid in the sixties. The drummer on 2.H.B was fuckin jammin. Chance Meeting sounded like he was making up the lyrics on the fly. There were no lyrics on the youtube videos and I don’t think I understood one word. Most of the songs sounded like a mish mash of instruments interrupting each other while a man has a violent stroke into a microphone. 3/10

Got scared when I saw how long the songs were. There are three different saxophones on this album. The vocals came in so late on Zombie that it actually startled me. Mister Follow Follow is the epitome of night time driving through the city with the windows down music. After two really long songs, I did find myself tuning out. A body can only take so much sweet saxophone and this pushed me to my limit. I thought perhaps this would be the album that I made an exception to long songs, but no, it was not. 6/10

Robert Plant sings from his balls. Whole lotta love goes from a nice rock song to acid trip real fast and back to rock song just as fast. The second song on the album that has a title that is too long to type out but by the point I have written this have written more words than the song title because I am just rambling on is a banger. The juxtaposition of the guitar solos being at a much faster tempo than the rest of the song on The Lemon Song was fantastic. Thank You is a fucking ballad banger. Ramble On is the best Lord of The Rings song ever created. Moby Dick has a drum solo that will edge you to completion. Bring It on Home brings it on home with a bluesy intro into a hard rock jam. I was hit with melancholic emotion every time a song ended because I wanted more. 10/10

This is what I imagine clowns listen to. Am I being pranked, this is joke music right?…. Right? Elvis Costello is my sleep paralysis demon, freezing me and singing goofily into my terrified face. This album is presented as Elvis Costello & The Attractions, I would have preferred it just be The Attractions. What an awful day to have ears. Possibly one of the most annoying voices I have ever heard. All around terrible experience that I wish I didn’t take part in. 1/10

Peace, love and white boys singing in harmony. Each song has a different tone all while screaming this was made in the 60s. Not really too much to say about this one. A bunch of pleasant songs finished off with an absolute banger. 7/10

The Bob Dylan song structure: Bob sing talks two sentences at a time. They always rhyme. Background music that really doesn’t matter. You are distracted by his chitter chatter. The lyrics do not repeat. He is telling a story, very neat. Sometimes he yells out. Sometimes it’s a shout. Harmonica solo to end the song. Thanks for listening along. Next song starts. Bob Dylan farts. 3/10

It’s crazy that an album put out in 81 sounds sooo incredibly 80s. This album must have been extremely influential as it seemingly defines 80s synth pop. Souvenir is one of my favorite 80s songs that is still in my 80s bangers playlist. With that said no other songs on this album will be going on the 80s bangers playlist. A bunch of these songs would fit perfectly into a psychological horror movie or a video game. Upon relistening to the album with the mindset of: the other songs are not going to be as good as Souvenir; I did enjoy it a lot more. Each song has a uniqueness to it while staying within the Synth Pop genre. 7/10

This is Cowboy music. Delightfully simplistic in its approach. A voice, a guitar, and a stringed instrument. In the same vein as Bob Dylan in that it is a story told through song, but this is better. I am pretty sure he is one of the bears from the Country Bear Jamboree at Disney. The stringed instruments add an emotional presence that at times is overwhelming in how it affects the songs tone. This album would be best listened to sitting around a campfire gazing up at the stars. 9/10

These mothafuckas are funky, God damn. City Country City was an absolute jam, 13 minutes flew by. Also the title of the song was exactly the vibes the two very distinct parts of the song gave off. One second your wandering through the frontier of wild America and the next your in the hustle bustle of a big city. I was not ready for how instrumental this album was going to be. It was kind of like the vocals were interrupting the background music which really took the spotlight. Freight Train Jam was a fucking jam. Really solid bluesy soulful funkin album. 8/10

Leave it to Paul Simon to make a song about allergies that makes you feel good, the opposite of what allergies actually do. The titular song of the album is just delightful. A wide range of sounds on this album all complemented by Simon’s pleasing vocals. I really enjoyed the first three songs then didn’t really enjoy the remaining songs. Cars are cars is one of the dumbest songs I have ever heard. Didn’t love it, didn’t hate it. 5/10

I grew up listening to the Smiths. I have listened to this album thousands of times. The smiths live rent free in my head. If only Morrissey wasn’t such a huge fucking twat. My favorite part of this album is how playfully aggressive the lyrics are on bordering between being a massive edge lord and a depressed boy whose just been dumped. If the Five Night at Freddys bus crashes into us, to die by your side what a heavenly way to die. The odds of getting a Smiths album after discussing a meme about the smiths is absolutely insane, let alone the song that said meme is about being on the album. The universe is looking out for us. The last song is about fat girls lol 10/10

I’m probably going to upset someone but the lead singer sounds just like Jack Black. Bruce Dickinson can fucking sing, dude is giving it his all every note. The background music is so clean its upsetting. The bass, the guitar and drums are so in sync on every song. My foot did not stop moving the entire album. Run to the hills brings back great memories of playing guitar hero/rock band and is such a fucking banger. My only issues are that the songs do start to sound very similar and I cannot understand half what is being sung. 7/10

This is the music they play in Insane Asylums in movies. Why is ‘Start’ not the first song on the album? By the time it got to ‘I don’t remember’ I was wishing I didn’t remember having listened to this album. Peter Gabriel sings like a deaf person. These songs have no right being as long as they are. I would have preferred sitting in a padded room for the duration of the album, then I could justify how repetitive these pretentious ass songs were. 2/10

I suddenly have the urge to play Red Dead Redemption. What’s worse than Country music? Christian Country music. There were parts I enjoyed, banjo pickin has a great novelty sound to it. Not sure if there were two singers but whoever was singing on ‘The Christian Life’, I did not like his voice or any songs he sung. There are two tempos on this album: square dance & slightly faster square dance. Really generic country music all said and done, felt like I had heard all these songs walking around bass pro shop. 4/10

The background beats were too repetitive and not interesting. His flow was almost exactly the same on every song, just changed up the lyrics. You could take one verse from one song and put in into another and it would be unnoticeable. I did like Bladerunners since there were other people rapping other than Mike Ladd. To the Moon’s Contractor had a great section of instrumental beats and a nice break from having to listen to Mike Ladd. He used Skywalker to rhyme with Streetwalker multiple times in different songs. These are truly the drunk almost incoherent ramblings of a homeless man that happens to rhyme sometimes. The last song he evolved into an end of the world street preacher. Overall pretty unpleasant experience that I struggled to keep focused on due to wanting it to just end. 2/10

This is the music they play when the main character has to walk through a gay vampire nightclub in a tv show. Nickelodeon gross out humor but music. Closer is about cumming, nice. This album borders on being too industrial to actually enjoy and being just industrial enough to be bearable. Trent Reznor is a horny freak. Every song is about fucking something or someone, nice. In conclusion, I would listen to horny angry man scream at me with aggressively industrial beats in the background again. 9/10

Just a girl and her Taylor guitar. Teeters between music that would be featured in School House Rock and an emotional scene in an 80s movie where the teenage main character walks through a wooded road thinking about their mistakes and it is kind of a montage but not really. Suzanne Vegaina. Ok, it could also be a scene in a teenage drama movie where the main character is a misunderstood bullied girl and she has reached her last straw and turns to cutting, with a Taylor guitar perfectly placed in the background, it’s a montage. ‘Straight lines’ are the cuts from the montage girl. Hear me out, it’s a teenage drama movie based in a small town of Washington State and the main character is a quiet girl who hasn’t found her voice, there is a big school talent show and her single dad who is played by some generic B list white actor with a mustache, thinks that she really should sing a song for the show, so she builds up the courage throughout the 85 min run time and after a big fight with her dad she sings on the stage ‘Undertow’ by Suzanne Veganus, as she finishes the song she peers out into the audience to see the crowd crying with amazement and her dad is in the back smiling and does the head nod of approval with arms crossed thing, in the final scene she sets her guitar down on its stand as her mustached father calls her down for dinner, as the camera pans out it reveals the logo of the guitar, Taylor, credits role over a montage of pictures of Taylor guitars. 4/10

I would describe this as safe sex jazz rock. I could hear the influence that rubbed off on other bands/artists who then did more interesting things with it. The instruments were clean but almost predictable on what was to come next. Got Stevie Wonder vibes from the vocals but just nowhere near as good. There were a few times where the singer tried to hit some notes that I just don’t think he was able to hit. The audio mixing was also off, some of the instruments were too quiet and the vocals would sometimes too quiet as well. There wasn’t anything majorly wrong with the album but there wasn’t anything that really stood out either. 4/10

I like the song where he calls me a pussy and then a gay man tells me he is going to kick 50’s ass cus he ain’t no pussy. My favorite song is ‘21 Questions’. Trigger Warning. I can’t take this music serious. The beats and lyrics are borderline comical. I just don’t believe rap ages well. This is meant to be taken seriously but it just sounds like a joke. I appreciate that he carved his name in the industry and created a sound that is indistinguishably 50 cent, even if he has to tell you who he is every song like you have brain damage and forgot who you were listening to. The musical aspect is like 3 sounds per song so its really just rapping which he does have great flow and catchy choruses but its just not enough to win me over to genre. If I can’t relate to lyrics and the instrumentals don’t do anything for me theres not much left for me to enjoy. 4/10

All that stuff about heavy metal and hard rock, I don't subscribe to any of that. It's all just music. I mean, the heavy metal from the Seventies sounds nothing like the stuff from the Eighties, and that sounds nothing like the stuff from the Nineties. Who's to say what is and isn't a certain type of music? - Ozzy Osborne Being sober on a bus is, like, totally different than being drunk on a bus. - Ozzy Osborne I used to fantasize that Paul McCartney would marry my sister. - Ozzy Osborne I'll only retire in the day I should be dead and they have me buried, and some idiot spell over my casket some stupid gospel stuff. - Ozzy Osborne You gotta be really careful what you bite off. Don’t bite off more than you can chew. It’s a dangerous world. - Ozzy Osborne I’m not a musician – I’m a ham. - Ozzy Osborne System of a down’s cover of Snowblind is better. - Ozzy Osborne 7/10

Holy shit what is this? Out of tune singing coupled with out of tune instruments. ‘Sea Song’ has a piano solo that just sounds like someone slamming their dick on the keys. Then it has a vocalization solo that sounds like he is getting slammed in his dick. This guy sings like he is making up the lyrics on the spot. This album is like a make a wish foundation child with no musical talent wished to make an album but the kid is a grown British man. The best part of the album is when Robert Wyatt is quiet which he rarely is. Alifib or Anus Licking is for interesting bitches is just a dude sounding like he’s getting pegged with noises in the background. This album made me wish I was deaf. 1/10 This is the worst album I have reviewed so far.

‘Green Onions’ is such an iconic song and I would never have been able to tell you the name or artist that made it. This is the music that plays during a montage in a kids coming of age movie where the kids have to work together to make money to buy some pointless object that in the end just shows them that it was actually the friends they made along the way that matters. The instrumentals are very clean and Booker does indeed kill it on organ but the sound can get a bit tiresome. I believe this is great intermission music, where listening to one song in between other songs of other artists/genres is great but listening to the album front to back detracts from the experience. 6/10

YAS QUEEN SLAY! What a diverse set of songs with so many unique sounds spread throughout. Its insane how different every song sounds while still maintaining the Queen vibe. They did some genres better in one song than we have heard from full albums of other artists. There were multiple songs that left me with a big smile. Fuck AIDs for taking such an angelic voice away from us. A fantastic album from one of the greatest bands of all time. 10/10 I would give this higher than a 10 if possible.

I had to look at the wiki to find out what genre of music this is considered, jazz pop. This music sounds like what would play at the end of an 80s young adult comedy movie to get people out of the theatre but like happily. ‘Green Flower Street’ was almost a banger, at times Fagen tried to hit notes that were a little above his pay grade. Ruby Baby went on way to long and I was waiting for it to end after the first couple minutes. I enjoyed the instrumentals a lot more than the singing. It’s not that his singing is bad in anyway, I just can imagine a different singer really elevating the sound. Why isn’t ‘The Goodbye Look’ the last song on the album?! It’s not that I didn’t like it, it’s that I didn’t like it that much. 5/10

Really makes you feel like your in an Irish Pub. The lead singer has teeth like a piranha. Pub Punk. This is the music that plays in the shire during Bilbo’s birthday but like a really drunk angry hobbit is singing. The album cover looks like one of my thumbnails. If your in the mood for Celtic punk its great. If you hate accordions ‘you’ won’t like this. 5/10

Vadhā'ī'āṁ, tusīṁ isa vāka dā anuvāda kītā hai. Iha uha sagīta hai jō sōnika aiḍavain̄cara vica madara padhara'tē caladā hai. Ādamī, jē maiṁ madha pūrabī hudā tāṁ maiṁ isa samēṁ jaimina hudā para maiṁ nahīṁ hāṁ. 2/10

Young kid version of myself would call this music ‘gay’. His voice is just kind of annoying. The instrumentals were fine just kind of boring. 16 songs is too many fucking songs for an album. His wiki page is way more interesting than his music. 3/10

More brit pop rock that doesn’t exactly wow but is at least listenable. A Blurrlike band where songs were basically deleted from my memory as soon as they ended. Some of the noises this singer made were making me chuckle because they were soo strange. It was strange, I felt like I had heard every song before but this was caused by the songs almost being predictable in how unoriginal they were. I would still rather listen to this than Blurr. 5/10

This album is the reason I wish there were more modern albums on this platform. It’s so refreshing to hear something this good that is a fairly recent release and not some 70s band that has been cultivating a cult following for 50 years. What a satisfyingly smooth sound this album carries. Combining so many different genres of music to make a Michael Medley Masterpiece. Michael has a fantastic voice that carries so much with his lyrics. The instrumentals are not just background noise but actually meld insanely well with Michael’s singing creating a truly unique and interesting sound. There is not one bad song on this album, even the intermission songs are interesting and kept me listening. I putting this as the best front to back listen album on this platform. This album fucking slaps! 10/10

This guy sings like when you’re a kid and you want to scream inside but you have to use your inside voice. It’s funky, it’s soulful, but it’s also just not different enough from other albums in the genre. The lyrics are meaningful so if that is something your into there’s that but the rest of it is just kind of boring and generic. At first I thought his voice was alright maybe even kind of nice. After a few songs I just found it annoying and it made my throat itchy listening to him sound like he was letting out a death rattle for 5 minutes. If I wanna listen to love makin’ music I’d rather listen to Marvin Gaye. 4/10

Feel good music to feel good to. Nothing overly exciting or unique but it really does a good job at the genre its sticking too. It is pleasant to listen to, the instrumentals are clean and the singing is nice. The titular song ‘Groovin’ is a banger. Didn’t expect to be blown away and I wasn’t, nevertheless I enjoyed it. 7/10

Excuse me while I blow my fucking brains out instead of listening to this. People always shit on teenage girl music and you know what they are right, this sucks. The lyrics sound like they were written by a child and I find out that three grown adults co-wrote this garbage. The background music is so overproduced and still somehow sounds like the most basic shit imaginable. She sounds like every other white girl with a guitar artist like they are made in some kind of white girl singer factory. She sings like one of those Nation wide insurance commercials that plays in between music you actually want to listen to. I would honestly rather listen to diarrhea slosh around in this woman’s acoustic guitar than have to listen to this album ever again. 1/10

Skateboard music to thrash to. I’m pretty sure this entire album is in Tony Hawk Pro Skater. With a band name like Turbonegro and an album name with the word apocalypse in it, I thought this would have been darker and heavier. Combining synchronized vocals and standard heavy rock sounds this album doesn’t do much to blow you away but is still enjoyable enough. It’s not the worst I have heard in this genre and not the best. You could have replayed the same song over and over and told me they were different songs and it would have been no different from listening to this album normally. The whole time I felt like I had heard them before then realized they sound just like The Hives but heavier. 5/10

You like jazz? 5/10

I can’t believe they made an album of the ‘You wouldn’t download a car commercial’. There are three massive hits on this album that are absolute bangers in the sense that you end up chanting along to the simple lyrics of smacking of bitches and starting fires. I enjoyed Narayan and Fuel My Fire quite a bit but the other songs were a little too similar to really shine. In the same electronica vein, The Chemical Brothers I believe provide a more distinct and diverse sound and this really just made me want to listen to them. Still a pretty solid heavy electronica album. 7/10

How can an album sound so 80s but not be from the 80s? Gary Numan is the father of synth pop and paved the way for the sounds of the 80s. His influence is undeniable. There is a sense of nostalgia in every song that leaves you longing for more. Albeit simplistic in rhythm and lyrics, the songs form little masterpieces sprinkled throughout the album. ‘Cars’ is a song that I have listened to thousands of times starting at a very early age. That song helped me appreciate this type of music on a new level and seek it out to further my musical tastes. An extremely enjoyable experience from start to finish. 9/10

What a voice. Otis was a staple in my household growing up. Listening to this album today is like listening to a part of my childhood. Booker T. & the MGs provide a fantastic background sound that elevates Otis’ voice to maximum soulfulness. Half of the songs are covers and it is difficult to even tell as he completely envelopes each performance with his style creating versions that are completely his own. Covering absolutely fantastic songs for half and creating some of the most well known soul songs with the other half, this album is a soulful masterpiece. 10/10

New Order is definitely in my top 10 most listened to bands of all time. With that said I have listened to this album only a couple times as I really enjoy their earlier works a lot more. Some songs capture the synth dance rock sound that I love from New Order like ‘Round & Round’ while others start to move away to a different sound entirely. My favorite bits were the sections when the singing stopped and instrumentals took center stage. Although I don’t believe this album stands up to their other albums, I still fancied it quite a bit. A few of these songs might find there way into my playlist. 8/10

Smooth. Clean. Relaxing. Nick might have one of the most serine voices I have ever heard. The backing music helps bring his voice out sharing the stage with his immensely melancholic tone and creating some truly wonderful sounding music. If you ever need to unwind and clear some stress, this is the album to listen to. 9/10

Judging this as music, it’s not. Judging this as a really long meme, it’s a masterpiece. If I wanted to be yelled at by white boys, I would just hop into The Chunts discord. This awakened memories of my mother listening to this album and child me instantly leaving the room to not have to endure it anymore. I guess I forgot that I absolutely hate the Beastiality Boys. If you want to give yourself a headache this is probably the best and fastest way to do so. 2/10 Music (One point for Brass Monkey) 10/10 Joke

Im stricketh, sometimes I think her voice sounds nice and then sometimes it borderline goofy & annoying. The hand against ear rising and falling pitch type of singing gets really old really fast. Some of the lyrics are… explicitly cringe, like the female comedian trope of just talking about vaginas. But then some lyrics are rather nice and you wouldn’t ever guess that the previous song was about mentally cheating on someone by imagining their partner is someone else. The songs I enjoyed the most were the slower jazz/soul backing tracks while the more pop/r&b tracks sounded a lot more generic. With all that said the background music was pretty much chef’s kiss for the entire album. I actually ended up enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would. 7.5/10

This is the music that plays in Department store make-up sections. My experience with The XX is every time they come on my Spotify Indie playlist I skip their songs. The instrumentals sound like what plays in a perfume/cologne commercial while the vocals give off people who try too hard at karaoke. I know this is labeled as indie pop but it just gives off a soulless soul vibe. I can imagine someone listening to this thinking it’s deep and they relate on a spiritual level all while sitting staring out of their parents mansion, misunderstood to the world, painfully generic. Also the entire album is just incredibly boring and safe. Of course it did well, this is what people who have no musical taste think emotional music sounds like but it’s just a vapid shell that checks off points to make a successful pop album on the stage of modern music. 1/10

The first song was so confusing and felt like three different songs mashed into one. I didn’t mind the background music as it is pretty interesting, I actually enjoyed it quite a bit but the vocals take me out of it. As the album went on I guess I grew more accustomed to the vocals as they started making more sense with the instrumentals. The sections with no singing were still my favorite as they felt like musical adventures telling a story without words. Going into this album not liking Peter Gabriel’s solo stuff very much at all, I was pleasantly surprised how much liked this. The songs are very long and could have been cut into individual songs. I believe this would have made the album flow a lot better. Did I enjoy this album? Kindof. Will I seek out more genesis or relisten to these songs again? Probably not. A very strange album in general that brings some interesting sounds while being held back by weird vocals. 7/10

Snoop’s flow is addictive. The beats are great, especially when compared to the other rap artists we have gotten on this platform. They are simple and repetitive but they do such a fantastic job elevating Snoop’s verses. In terms of lyrics, can’t relate to anything and a lot of it comes across jokey. I guess I am just not a fat G dawg bow bow mother fucka biatch. This isn’t a huge issue as the beats and Snoop’s flow carry this album for the majority of its runtime. I enjoyed it but I did get fatigued during the second half. 6/10

The beginning of this album is quite literally banger after banger. I have never really sought out Elton John’s music but just through sheer popularity I have heard the majority of his songs. Even if you don’t like this type of music you have to admit the widespread success of the songs of this album is extremely impressive. The middle of the album starts to teeter totter from great song to forgettable song. The latter half of the album is borderline country which really confused me. This is a LONG album. At one point I thought we might be getting close to finishing and we still had ten songs left. The album is banger filled, the album is too long, the album is diverse in its sound, the album has a few songs that sound really similar, the album is probably the best way to listen to Elton John, the album is kind of too much Elton John. Great album. 7/10

This is granpa music. This is country music. This is not really my kind of music. It’s not that I don’t like country music, it’s more that I don’t really enjoy it very much. The composition of the songs are just fine, slide guitar (if it is actually a slide guitar) is nice, if not a bit repetitive and overused. Merle’s voice is nice but once again pretty repetitive. Each song tells a story about working class, women, and such but they really all sound the same. Just not for me. 3/10

Banger followed by absolute jam followed by banger followed by absolute jam. What a solid sound this album has. Everything aspect of this album is clean. I did actually prefer the bits with no singing which was most of the album as instrumentals were just so good. Fantastic listen. 9/10

The first group to combine jazz and hip-hop and damn does it sound good. Great verses paired with smooth instrumentals. I don’t often listen to hip-hop but when I do most of the time it’s A Tribe Called Quest. Q-tip has such a fantastic flow and voice. A paramount album of the genre. 9/10

God fucking damn it. Elvis Costello sounds like he is passing kidney stones every time he opens his mouth. The background music is fine if that is your cup of tea, it’s basically diner music to drink a milkshake and eat a burger to with a goofy ass motherfucker yelling over it. His voice really is extremely annoying and has no redeeming qualities. Now I want a milkshake but instead I just have this aggravating fucker making a fuss. 1/10

This is not quite what I remember Marvin sounding like. I like this but I don’t LOVE this. The lyrics to every song are basically the same exact thing repeated through this very very long album. The fatigue hit hard on this one. Marvin Gaye is another childhood household name but I somehow have never heard anything off of this. Middle of the road Marvin Gaye album. 5/10

This is one of those bands that I have heard the name and actually heard a couple songs but I could never tell you what they sound like. I still am not sure what their sound is. The lead singer sometimes has a nice voice and sometimes he pronounces word very strangely. I preferred the bits of instrumental over the more structured vocal sections. I wasn’t sure I was going to like this going in and I am unsure if I liked it going out. They killed a cat on the songs. 5/10

Never really listened to Radiohead. I know what they sound like and know people really dig em. They just never really clicked for me. I think it has been a combination of not liking some of the vocals and mixed feelings on the instrumentals. There were a couple songs I did enjoy on this album like “2+2=5” and “Sit down stand up”. I really did not like “Backdrifts” at all. Then there were songs like “We Suck Young Blood” that I hated. I feel like the singer to Radiohead jacks it to his own voice. He doesn’t really have the greatest voice, I mean it’s ok, but the way he isolates himself and puts the spotlight on his vocals is pretentious and annoying, especially when it all kind of sounds the same (not just this album but any Radiohead song I have heard). 3/10

This guy sings like he is doing a fake British accent. Theres really just not much to it. I feel like there is only one dude in this band because the lack of other instruments is telling. He’s telling stories but 1. i could barely understand him 2. They are boring stories. “Honey, I’m a Big Boy Now” was utter shite. Why did it randomly become country? Deportees was hilarious and so completely out of place. Man the longer it went on the more annoying it got. Waste of an hour honestly. 2/10

This fucking sucks. Why is this on here? There is nothing redeemable about this. It is actually tiring listening to this garbage. Kayla missed the review but said “it’s shit. You know when you eat corn and it goes right through you? This is the corn.” 1/10

The most classic hard rock band putting out the most classic hard rock album I have ever heard. Pretty much banger after banger. These songs are so well known that they have entered into the overplayed status. The production on this album is insane. Every sound is deliberate, every scream is intentional, every thing is as it should be. If you needed to show someone who has never heard hard rock a hard rock album this would be the one to show them. 9/10

This album has parts that on their own might sound good, catchy choruses, decent 80s background beats and somewhat interesting composition. When put together it is confusing, annoying and overwhelming. I like the guy in “Inna City Mama” who comes in and says the title in a voice that sounds like he is shitting his insides out. Each song is obnoxiously overcrowded with noises. My ears are raw like sushi after listening to this. 3/10

Serene slow music with a tone deaf man sing talking nonsense. 4/10

I like R.E.M. It sounds like R.E.M. I really wanted to like this more than I did. It’s not that it’s not good, it’s kind of just ok. Some songs like “The Wrong Child” felt unorganized and crowded. “Orange Crush” is the best song on the album. The others are not even really close, no not “Stand” STFU. The majority of the songs really are just cluttered with overlapping singing and unnecessary extra sounds. Not the worst but there are better R.E.M. albums that could have been picked. 5/10

One two cha cha cha doo doooo. 4/10

Much too fat and a little too long. A bit unfocused on what the sound of the album was but maybe that was what they were going for. Every song was pretty unique and did not sound similar to last. I did really enjoy the weird jammy jazzy sounds like “Space Child”. Sometimes I heard Zepplin, sometimes I heard Yes, I liked pretty much all I heard. 8/10

He sing talks and it works most of the time. The background music was nice at times and then really forgettable some other times. “Walk on the wild side” is great, didn’t realize that it was the sample for “Can I Kick it?”. “Make up” made me uncomfortable, the clown music, saying little girl, and describing what turns him on, ew. I can hear a bunch of different singers in the songs so I guess he was pretty influential. Heavy Violent femmes vibes but less unhinged. Minus the clown songs I rather enjoyed it. 7/10

Never really listened to The Kinks, I know of them and have heard some songs. On the outside they sound Beatlesy but like more psychedelic rockish. “Australia” is a fucking delightful banger, what a weird masterpiece. We have heard some albums that sound kind of similar to this but there was just more in this one than the others. A strange mix of a bunch of different genres and sounds from the 60/70s that make up a fairly satisfying album. 8/10

I don’t know what I thought LL Cool J sounded like but it was not this. Pleasantly surprised by the banger beats and his flow. “Around The Way Girl”s’ chorus was so smooth and weaved perfectly into the song at the right times. His lyrics are witty and full of finesse. This is possibly one of the biggest surprises so far with just how much I enjoyed this. “Milky Cereal” is probably my favorite song on the album. It was basically banger after banger. I found myself nodding along to every song and will probably relisten to this album a couple more times. 10/10

A dream-like album in which it’s a nightmare that I cannot wake up from. Bjork graduated from the School of Mispronounced words with Honors. English is Bjork’s fifth language. This album is a fever dream of technobeats and a clinically insane person singing, often times layered with her own voice like five times. Each and every song is waaaaaaaay too long and drags as she mispronounces the same lyrics for up to 6 minutes. Bjork created the genre of breathy women singing, where the vocalist exhales on every word without ever inhaling (many have died trying this technique, Bjork claims their souls for her pagan god). If anyone rates this over 3 out of 10 they are insane and Bjork’s witchcraft has already taken hold. 3/10

This is the music I wish was left in the 80s. Prince goes from sounding like a women to a cat dying to a man in an outfit that is tight around the crotch. I’ve never listened to Prince and have only ever heard one song of this album: I would die 4 u. The sounds are cheesy and loud for no reason. I thought he was known for being this amazing guitarist so I was pretty surprised when there really wasn’t that much guitar and it was not even close to amazing. I actually found his singing and guitar playing more annoying than anything. 2/10

A group that created the hip-hop jazz fusion sound that paved the way for De La Soul and Tribe Called Quest. I can hear so much of those two groups in these songs. I did feel that I wanted a bit more. The flow was a bit repetitive and made a few songs blend together. Even with that said they are great songs. There are few stand out songs that are bangers “Acknowledge your own history” “Tribe Vibes” & “Doin our own dang”. Solid album. 7/10

A pop album that really stretches the genres sound. Melancholic ballads to upbeat sad happy songs. Really nice singing backed by solid instrumentals. It’s pretty weird. It’s really weird. It’s borderline bizarre a few times. I only have ever heard “Dancing Queen” so this was quite shocking to hear how different their music is from their mega hit. There were a few songs I really enjoyed and a few I didn’t really care for. 7/10

Some needs to stop shaking this man so he can sing. Music to get depressed to the album. I can’t decide if I like his voice or if it bothers me. The songs are nice, slow, and emotional but a bit repetitive and kind of overstay their welcome. There are parts that I really really liked but then there were parts that I could have gone without.

Spectacular flow, perfect beats, delightful singing, bits at the end of songs that weren’t needed and went on too long. 7/10

Serene indie folk rock with heavy acoustic guitar and sometimes Mexican classic guitar riffs. The songs that did have singing, complemented the tasteful instrumentals. A unique album that showed a great amount of range stretching from genre to genre. 9/10

Anthony Keidis says words funny. Probably the most popular RHCP album with the most well known tracks. As a teen this was on HARD repeat, so I know every song on this album basically mispronounced word for mispronounced word. As an adult I kind of dropped off of RHCP and really don’t listen to them very much anymore. Nevertheless it’s impossible to deny the fantastic sound and flow of this album. 9/10

Merry Chuntmussy! 9/10

One of the most recognizable voices that I didn’t recognize. 50s music to fine dine to. I like the gigalo song. 8/10

Sad Christmas music to be heartbroken to. I realized I haven’t listened to very much Frank Sinatra but it doesn’t really matter because this album is like one extremely long song. There were a few “songs” where I literally thought I just listened to the same one back to back with how similar they were. He has an amazing voice but the way he sings and the actual lyrics of the songs started to actually drive me crazy. Some of the lyrics were so bad that I had to turn my ears off. This sounded like someone just writing down whatever comes to mind and then singing it the same way over and over. 3/10

This is an album that I have been listening to since I was a wee shit ska kicker. I wore this album out when I was heavy into Ska and Reggae. I have stopped listening to this type of music in the past couple years but I still always return to The Specials. A unique voice that could either make you love the song or turn you away instantly. There are a few of the biggest songs in Ska on this album. There are also a few songs that don’t quite hit the mark but I still appreciate them. My view of this album might be skewed by nostalgia but I still believe this album deserves credit for being genre defining. 9/10 R.I.P. Terry Hall

Man I really love the three biggest hits on this album: Turn to stone, Sweet Talkin’ Woman, Mr. bluesky but the rest just don’t do it for me. Songs began blending together and at the same time sounding like amalgamations of other bands of the time like Queen, Floyd, Boston, Beegees and the Beatles. I dig the Sci-Fi themed instrumentals but the vocals were just too repetitive and the harmonized effect was overdone like 4 songs in. An interesting album with a couple bangers, that in the end overstayed its welcome. 7/10

A guilty pleasure of mine. Discovered this band through the youtube algorithm like 7 or 8 years ago. I really wanted to see what they sounded like after hearing “Rip it up” and was pretty surprised how different all the songs on this album were. Another singer with a really strange voice that probably makes or breaks peoples first impressions. I do prefer their more upbeat funky stuff to the slower songs but in the end I really enjoy this album front to back. Tenterhook is not a good song and should have been cut from the album. There are songs on this album that I still listen to and find myself humming from time to time. 8/10

Please fucking kill me. 1/10

Another one of those bands that I know of, have heard one mega hit song and didn’t know what they actually sounded like. I would describe them as Trent Reznor (NIN) and Foo Fighters’ friend who was almost in their respective bands but ended up doing their own thing. Also Soundgarden came way before Foo Fighters so I guess Foo fighters would be like the friend in this situation but Dave Grohl was too busy murdering Kurt Cobain at the time so he probably would’ve been like the friend of a friend in this situation. Black Hole Sun is the best song on this album and not just because of it’s super mega hit status, it’s just a great song composition wise. The only other song that kind of comes close but not really is Spoonman, fuck yeah Spoonman. I enjoy Chris Cornell’s vocals on pretty much every song but the background music is just kind of boring on most tracks. There are some outliers for this but even then I wasn’t blown away or anything. 6/10

Space, no one can hear you synthesize in space. This is a heavy sci-fi blues jam album. It’s very atmospheric and keeps a very solid theme throughout. It also does a great job of leading each song into the next making it a nice front to back album which Floyd is known for. It is a bit slow at times and some songs drag a bit with all the solos. I got really confused when the first song played at the end of the album again only to find out that it is a 9 part song spread through the entire album. Kind of took me out of it as I wanted to hear more varied tracks and instead just listened to the second half of a nearly thirty minute song (the album is 45min…) 7/10.

This is my favorite version of Nirvana. It’s live but sounds so crisp. It’s acoustic but really elevates all the songs they play. It’s mainly covers but they are my favorite versions of these songs. I have watched this front to back at least a hundred times. Dave Grohl looking like a midwife weasel in a turtle neck. Kurt bantering with the audience. Krist’s bass stank face. Pat’s feet and happy demeanor. This album is best consumed by actually watching it. It really is a great experience that even people who don’t like Nirvana I think would enjoy. 10/10

Prairie music to settle down and make a farm family to. Shes got a very pleasant voice. I feel like I have heard her in the intro to an old animated film or something. The audio mixing wasn’t great. The background music and her voice would be very quiet then she would hit me with the full yell and make me go deaf. Songs didn’t vary enough for me and kind of started to sounded the same. SPANISH SONG. There were two songs back to back where she was just talking about people named Mary. Lot’s of storytelling in the writing which was very nice and helped create a scene for the songs. Pretty decent country folk album 7/10

This guy sounds like the singer from Blur. A unique almost genre defining album which I cannot even tell you what genre this is. I was obsessed with Gorillaz growing up after watching the music video for Feel Good Inc. on TV. The idea of an animated band was so fucking cool and continues to be an extremely unique idea 20 years on. There are some absolute bangers on this album. There are some really weird songs on this album. There are some skippable songs on this album. I’ve always thought of Gorillaz as a singles band where there albums are good but the hits are top tier. The intro to M1A1 genuinely creeped me out as a kid. When we saw them in concert they opened with M1A1 and it was the perfect song to start a concert to. The nostalgia rating is heavy on this one and its basically impossible for me to rate this with without rose tinted glasses. 10/10 Why the fuck is Demon Dayz not on this list?!

Great vocals, great musicians, sounds like every other older Hispanic group I have ever heard. It’s pleasant to listen to but man does it get a bit repetitive. There are some very nice songs sprinkled in but for the most part it’s comes across pretty generic and unoriginal. 5/10

This sounds like they listened to a bunch of different 70s rock and decided we can do that. The balloon squeal solo on the first song was horrific. Singer sounds like Bob Dylan on cocaine. Pretty run of the mill 70s rock with a few strange sounds that in the end kind of just left me thinking ehh it’s not bad it’s not good. 5/10

Arguably the hard rock kings. Bordering between hard rock, traditional metal and grunge they are ones of those instantly recognizable groups. This and Nirvana were on heavy rotation in my teens and similarly to Nirvana I don’t really listen to this kind of music anymore. Even though my musical tastes changed they are still an iconic group that sounds just as good as when I listened to them almost twenty years ago. 8/10

The best religious album ever created. The icon himself, the face of reggae, the inspiration to the hundreds of white reggae bands that try to emulate his greatness. It’s reggae but it doesn’t fall into the trope of stoner music, it’s just so satisfying and smooth to listen to. This album has most of Marley’s biggest hits as well as some other not as well known songs. Another album that I have listened to hundreds of times and it’s still as good as it’s ever been. 10/10

I like the part where he spoke moist French into my ears. 6/10

This is some of the worst shit I have ever heard in my life. Every single song was overproduced, over sexualized garbage. The beats are generic crap that play on a cheap drum machine from Walmart and even then they can’t keep a beat. Half of the sounds that aren’t electronic noise are out of tune. Her breathy voice is so fucking annoying, her tempo is dog shit, and her lyrics are horrible, like they were written by a confident teenager who thinks they have talent. I actually struggled to make it through this repetitive STD of an album. 1/10

An album that was on repeat for me about 15 years ago. The bass is stanky, the guitar is crunchy, the drums are marchin, the vocals fit perfectly. There are a couple songs that I would usually skip but with a full listen this album flows pretty fantastically until the last two songs which would have been fine if they weren’t nearly 10 minutes each. Other than that there are some really fantastic songs. 9/10

Slow, electronic, experimental, emotional. The vocals wallow in the heavy dramatic instrumentals. This is once again not what I thought Radiohead sounded like. Much better than the last Radiohead album we got. I feel like you have to be in a very specific mood to listen to this album by choice. It seemingly sucks the energy out of you and makes everything heavy. A tonally haunting album. The latter half of the album dragged a bit and became a bit repetitive. I still can’t understand anything he is saying. 7/10

Like Elvis Castello, The Rolling Stones and Van Morrison had a threesom and out popped Tom Petty. Rather annoying vocals backed by some very unimpressive instrumentals. Not the worst thing we have listened to but pretty low down on the list. 3/10

Beck Beck Beck, Beck is weird. Beck has always been one of those names that I know pretty much all his big hits but have never sought out full albums. I don’t even know what genre you would put this in, rock? Folk? Country Punk? Some of the songs are pretty experimental in their sound, almost to much so. The hits are bangers and are very apparent when compared to the rest of the album. Over all an interesting listen but not something I will seek out again. 5/10

This guy wants to be Michael Jackson soooo bad. If Michael went down the road of R&B/Soul instead of pop. He’s got a great voice but it gets a bit tiresom hearing the same vocal progressions on pretty much every song. The instrumentals were kind of just there and didn’t really elevate his singing, not that it needed to be but left me wanting more from each song. Not my genre of music generally but I can appreciate the talent. 6/10

This is the funk I crave. Inject this directly into my veins. I must become the funk. Banger album filled with bangers. I loved every song and find no faults in this masterpiece. Actually sad when it ended and I wanted more. 10/10

This is like if someone listened to one Bob Marley album and said I can do that. Not quite reggae not quite R&B not quite rock not quite good. Very strange voice that just didn’t go with the instrumentals at all. Not a good sign when the most popular song is a remake of a Bob Marley song. I love reggae but this is not it. 2/10

I have never liked Kanye, this album did not change that. He is an obnoxious artist with obnoxious lyrics and an obnoxious fan base and this has always been the case. Every song follows the same format: he raps about how great he is and why everyone should bow down kiss his ass/balls. He is the epitome of a crybaby. None of these songs were enjoyable and he parrots the same shitty lyrical style in every song. Each generation that he is still idolized he’s dumbing down each generation. This is one of the only artists that I simply cannot separate the person from their music, mainly because he refuses to shut up about himself and how amazing he is, then is a fucking lunatic sociopath in real life. Could not wait for this selfsuckfest to be over. 1/10

He has a sultry voice but the music was a bit overplayed and didn’t really do anything for me. This is love makin music but Im not makin no love. 5/10

The definitive one hit wonder band. I know I say this a lot but man so many of these songs all sound the same. At one point I thought we were listening to Wonderwall but it was a song that sounded almost exactly like the lead up to chorus of Wonderwall. It’s not terrible but it’s not great kind of just repetitive and forgettable. 4/10

It’s good. 10/10

Realized I have always liked a couple Artic Monkeys songs but never sought out more from them. I should have? Really enjoyed this front to back. 9/10

I have come to realize that I find the love making music genre just ok. It doesn’t do anything for me. The music is fine and the vocals are great but overall I am just whelmed by it. 6/10

I have never listened to an Elvis album front to back, only singles. Had a decent amount of variety while keeping a tonally equal sound. I thought it was funny when he kept making them restart the song on “Such a night”, also my favorite song off the album. The songs were short and sweet which I really appreciated. Really solid album with no songs I have ever heard from The King. 8/10

A very interesting album that borders on sounding like a day at the carnival, opera house, and rock stadium all at once. A few songs I wasn’t too keen on but handful of great ones. Then, “Bohemian Rhapsody”, what I believe to be possibly the greatest song ever created. It alone deserves a 10/10 but the album in full is more like an 8. So 9/10

The first quarter of the album is very classic hard rock sounding. I prefer the more whimsical rock sounds of Zepplin II over this more generic sound. With that said I would still rather listen to Zep over most other Hard Rock artists. Then you get to the masterpiece that is Kashmir and man it feels like this album is just centered around it. It keeps the classic zep sound and deserves all the recognition that it gets because it really is perfect. The rest of the album is sprinkled with heavy serene songs like “In the light”, “Ten Years Gone” and then some more folk rock songs. I enjoyed the later half much more than the first quarter. Although I still prefer Zep II this is still a fantastic album was some really unique bangers. 9/10

Very nice voice with music that’s trapped in the 80s. This is a dated album that sounds of its time. Doesn’t mean it’s not good just kind of left in the past. This is the 80s music that just didn’t make it to the modern age. 5/10

Very relaxing, very harmonizing, very acoustic. Their sound is pretty similar throughout but it’s iconic and enjoyable to listen to it doesn’t matter. I did think every song was going to be “The Sound of Silence”. 8/10

Ray Charles is a legendary status household name and yet I have never heard any of these songs before. Seemingly two distinct tones in this album: love & sadness. Some of the songs started to meld together and could have possibly just been combined. He had a great voice but It wasn’t amazing or anything. At times I also felt that his voice was sort of jarring against the accompanying instrumentals. Couple pretty good songs with a handful of more forgettable ones. 5/10

Strange, aggressive, moist. This is music to trip on acid to in the desert. A musical adventure. 8/10

Incoherent, repetitive, piano man. I shouldn’t have looked this guy up. Why is every famous musician fucked up. I mean I wasn’t really enjoying it before looking him up anyway. 3/10

“Stairway to Heaven” & “Going to California” are masterpieces. The rest are more classic rock styled and I don’t feel have the same impact. Still great songs. Still doesn’t compare to Zep II. Still would rather listen to Zep over most classic hard rock bands. 8/10

Dirty, loud, terrible audio quality, PUNK. 5/10

Taylor Swift of the sixties. The entire album is basically a dis track. 6/10

Instantly recognizable. The band that brought punk into the mainstream and made it accessible to wider audiences, even if die hard punks don’t consider it punk. Some of their best and most notable songs on this album including my favorite song of theirs “Longview”. The later half of the album is a bit weak after “Basket Case” and is a bit forgettable. Still a fantastic album. 8/10

What a strangely unique voice. Some questionable lyrics but man was this jammin. Reminded me a bit of Talking Heads which Im all for. Pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this album front to back. 9/10

This is one of my definitive childhood albums. As a baby my dad played this for me and I have heard stories of how I always would giggle at Ian’s vocals. I blame this album for my cynical views and gloomy outlook of the world. This album heavily shaped my interpretation of music and how I view it. This is the best musical documentation of depression and how it alters your state of being. Ian was a troubled man who did not win the battle of his troubles. You can hear this in his music. Did not need to listen to this one as I know each song but did so anyway. Whoever runs the Joy Division Youtube account and created those Reimagined music videos for this album should be shot. What disgraceful, unimaginative, garbage those videos are, holy shit. Those videos are made by people who bought Joy Division shirts thinking they are cool not knowing anything about the band or the context of their music. 10/10

This might be the most American album I have ever listened to. It’s got country lyrics with not country music. I’m about half and half on the songs. The songs I liked were pretty good “Cover Me” “I’m on fire” “Glory Days” & “My Hometown”. “Dancing In The Dark” is a banger and the best song on the album, its not even close. The rest of the songs bordered on forgettable to I straight up didn’t like them. Hard to rate this one honestly. 6/10

Another great album from Jimi. This one doesn’t have any huge hits and most likely isn’t an album that non-jimi fans would know. But thematically I feel this album does a great job of having a consistent sound while mixing things up throughout. 8/10

“Tuesday’s Gone” & “Free Bird” are iconic bangers. The rest range from good to forgettable. 6/10

This is simply fantastic. Great musicians making great tunes. I had to get used to the singers style but after I did I felt it complimented the music very well. The mandolin is such an underutilized instrument. The later half of the album slows down a bit and leans much more into the English Folk sound, lingering just a tad. Very solid album. 8/10

What lovely hotel lobby music we have here. 6/10

There is a version of this album with 30 songs on it, fuck that. Weird, tone def sometimes, slightly annoying. Simply did not vibe with it. 3/10

*Record Scratch* You might be wondering why this album is on this list, well so am I. Its a bunch of DJ samples, the same funk beat, and record scratching for an hour. Each song is just too long and overstays its welcome. This would have been much more enjoyable if it was 3 times shorter. 2/10

I think they might be black. At times soulful, at times repetitive, at times motivational speech. When it was music it was ok and when it wasn’t I didn’t really get why this was on this list. A bit too long, 20 tracks that pretty much do the same thing over and over is just not needed. 5/10

Two absolute bangers that defined the 60s and a bunch of wholesome tunes. 7/10

David Bowie is weird. This album is weird as it sounds like its sometimes trying to be classic rock and then some weird shit happens and then Bowie sings a line like an alien. It also sounds like Bowie is recording his audio from a different room. “Starman” and “Suffragette City” are great, the rest are good but nothing that lives up to his other massive singles. 7/10

This is not music. Why the fuck is this on here? 1/10

Got a singer for a vegas casino vibes at first but then his voice grew on me. I like how he pronounces words funny. Pretty solid background instrumentals that really elevate his singing that on its own I don’t think it would have as much of an impact. Really dig the songs with the backup singers creating gospel ballads. Songs are a bit long and I wonder if the album would be more accessible if it wasn’t a double album. “Breathless” is a fantastic banger. Overall a pretty surprising album that I really enjoyed. 9/10

I wanted to like it but I kind of just didn’t. There were bits where I thought this is almost good and it would be turn into some of the worst singing and music playing I’ve heard. 4/10

Great voice, great backing band. Every song sounded exactly the same. I had to check to make sure it wasn’t accidentally playing the same song on repeat. Also would have rather just listened to a studio version without the crowd interrupting between every line and clapping over the songs. Kind of just annoyed me for the entirety. 4/10

Skater music to skate to. I really enjoyed the music when the singer wasn’t purposefully singing badly. He has an interesting voice, kind of in the same vein as Smashing Pumpkins but sometimes hit a note so badly it made me cringe. Don’t listen to “Don’t”. Overall there were bits a liked a lot and bits I didn’t like a lot. 6/10

There are some great songs on here and there are a lot of filler funk songs that all kind of sound the same. The album is pretty long and the songs are really long on top of that. I would have really enjoyed it if it was just the great songs and not filled with so many forgettable ones. Once again an album I loved as a teenager that I now don’t feel as fondly for. 7/10

A very solid, clean, heavy metal album. Pretty great for the bands first album although there are no huge hits. 7/10

Hippie folk rock to shoot a woman down the river to. Pretty good, songs were a bit long. Wasn’t the best thing I’ve but definitely not the worst. 6/10

You know after 3 albums I think I am starting to like Elvis Castello… just fucking kidding I hate this shit. The musicians are talented and some of the background music is good but man does this fuckin guys tongue hanging out of his mouth borderline saying racist words and derogatory descriptions piss me off. 1/10

I pretty much forgot what everything sounded like after finishing it. It was fine while listening but I don’t think it should be on this list. 5/10

God I love New Order. 10/10

Punkyish, Ramonesish, Buzzcockish. It’s not bad but not sure it should be on this list. 5/10

What a mighty fine penist we have here. It really is just a dude playing piano for 1 hour though. He’s great but I feel you have to really like piano to fully enjoy this. Didn’t realize this was live until I heard the faint sound of people coughing in the background. 6/10

Their energy is cosmic and addictive. T 8/10 K 7/10

The music is simplistic but that seems to be what rose them to such fame. They are really are an aesthetic choice. Never really sought them out but have always known of them. I have more of an appreciation for the band than a likeness for the music. 6/10

Great voice, great music. Every song sounds almost exactly the same. 6/10

I got lost in the jungle. 10/10

Indian Beck 6/10

More Björk mispronouncing words in a poetically nonsensical way. The background music is really just noise and she keeps the same vocal tones as well as rhythm through every song. Don’t really know why this is on here. Her other album we had was better. 3/10

I like “Man on the moon”, the rest eh not so much. Coming to the realization that I like a few songs from R.E.M but not their whole albums. 4/10

90s dance music with 80s vocals. At times it bangs at other times it drags. 6/10

Two women yelling jibberish over each other with some of the most generic 80s background music. T 3/10 K 2/10

This is the rainy days jazz that I love. He did some things with that trumpet I have never heard before. 9/10

Love me some Dexys. “Geno” is a regular on my 80s playlist. I’ve heard this album before and I feel the same, I enjoy the faster paced songs a lot more then the slower ones. 7/10

Smooth, nice beats. Mix of r&b, reggae and hip hop. There were a few songs I enjoyed and a bunch that kind of just played. The album is a bit long and there is some variety but the majority are pretty similar which makes a front to back listen less than ideal. 6/10

I feel like I am inside his throat. He’s got a great old person voice. Good backing music. Lyrical style was very repetitive to the point I thought I was listening to a duplicate song. Not as good as the first album we had of his. Definitely have to be in a certain mood for this kind of music. 6/10

La Grange is a classic. Not a huge fan of the rest. A bit too generic. The singer has an interesting voice and does some unique stuff but the background music is pretty forgettable. 5/10

If you told me this was Genesis I would believe you without a doubt. A bit funkier than Genesis which I think does help differentiate it. Couple absolutely huge songs like “Relax” and “War” sprinkled with a bunch of perfectly serviceable songs. “San Jose” was completely random compared to the rest of the album and I loved it. Pretty great album. 9/10

My uncles bio dad is the bassist. 5/10

This music is like recent Disney Pixar movies. It checks all the boxes that are needed to make a huge profit but lacks any kind if soul or meaning. These songs are shallow pop anthems to be chanted by braindead followers of the Swift Cult. They lack any kind of substance and while they all sound vaguely different, they follow the same basic outline making them repetitive within their own lifespan. I will never understand this music but I understand why it’s popular. 3/10

Why does he sing like the colon frog from South Park? 5/10

Punkabilly, countrypunk, cowpokepunk, slideguitarpunk, trailerpunk, outontherangepunk punk 4/10

Two slapping bangers and an array of decent hippie rock. 7/10

Solid vocals, solid instrumentals. 7/10

Bjork + Radiohead = Bjorkhead 4/10

Dolly Fartin’. 4/10

I liked every other song on this album. Felt like this wasn’t on this list then Stranger Things happened so they put it on this list. 6/10

Delightful. 60s music is so serene and wholesome even if the lyrics don’t always match that tone. I knew what a lot of the lyrics were going to be as he sang them as they just worked and flowed very well. This is definitely a stand out among the other 60s albums we have had. 9/10

This shit is weird, but it kind of works. You somewhat get lost in the strangeness and forget your listening to an album and becomes something different. I also like the European guy shouting random things throughout. 7/10

Another “not sure why this is on this list.” It’s not bad but it’s not good. 5/10

Some of the most generic shit I have ever heard. I had to fight the instinct to skip every single song. My finger would hover over the skip button and I would have to pull myself back. I think a Muse song snuck its way in the middle. Excuse me while I go stick chopsticks into my ear canals. 2/10

In your ass, I complete. Your ass, skeet skeet skeet. OH I can’t wait to be back inside your ass! 7/10

Fresh Frunky French Frbeats. 6/10

A great mesh of modern and 80s rock/pop. Singer is like Bob Dylan if Bob Dylan was good. Enjoyed the faster paced songs a lot more than the slower ones. Overall super solid album that flowed very nicely. 8/10

Makes you really feel like an angsty punk. 5/10

At first the vocals shocked me and then I loved them. The two singers(?) different takes on songs on how they went about the their styles was great. Fantastic instrumentals with some just fantastic drumming on certain songs. I fancied every song on here as they kept to their own style but varied the music enough that each new song was unique. 10/10

It’s like Eminem mixed with Korn. 4/10

Solid blues rock album that utilizes a bunch of instruments that are typically associated with specific genres yet makes them work together perfectly. 8/10

TfT makes me teary eyed with fantastic they are. It has their three biggest songs, it’s short and doesn’t overstay it’s welcome. Absolute masterpiece. 10/10

Not sure if this is punk rock. Not sure if I really enjoyed it. 5/10

What a jam. 8/10

Love, great voices, and love. 9/10

There are two things you will learn from the album: 1. N.W.A. hates the police. 2. N.W.A. hates women. Front loaded album with the first two tracks being the most well know, the middle being not great to straight up bad, with the end being ok. It was strange hearing so many Beastie Boys samples in this album to the point where it made me think they produced it but after a google search found N.W.A. was heavily influenced by them. 6/10

Dude’s will listen to this a go “Hell Yeah”. Now give me Wu-Tang. 10/10

Another R.E.M. album. Another album where two of the songs are bangers and the rest are forgettable. 5/10

Very dark and depressing album. Great story telling, great instrumentals, a bit repetitive at times with the longer songs (14 mins) where the story takes a while to tell. I enjoyed the double album a little bit more but this was still an interesting listen. The last two songs were not very good. 7/10

Gurlvana. 6/10

Short, blues, fat. 6/10

I love this genre but man this was waaaaay to long and not varied enough. Felt like one really long song that just kept repeating. For someone who doesn’t like this music I am sure this is pure hell. 6/10

Nice beats you got there, be a shame if they were repetitive and had some lady singing the same line over them for the entire duration. Still enjoyable. 6/10

Solid album from front to back. Wasn’t the greatest but was not bad at all. 7/10

Not my favorite Marley album. There are a few decent songs but even the hits are lesser known on this one. Even the topics are more serious and not the usual joyous tone of the big Marley hits. 7/10

James Bond ass music. At times I swore this was the Alien Opera song from Fifth Element. Super weird but I enjoyed it. 8/10

The definitive Vana album. 10/10

The big hits bring me back to 2004. The rest of the album reminds me why I no longer listen to Green Day. This album is long and when the song isn’t one of the hits it’s just super repetitive. Cut out the extra songs and this would have been a much better album. 6/10

I honestly couldn’t tell if this was a man or a woman until they identified themselves as a woman. Great voice though. Very lounge jazz soul rainy day music. 7/10

OK Radiohead. He sings like his tongue is numb. There were parts that I liked (instrumental bits) and parts I didn’t like (when he gets a bit too whiney with the vocals). I actually enjoyed the more experimental album we had last from them more than this and this is their biggest album. Karma Police is their best song. 6/10

Never really listened to Slipknot, wish I did because damn this was a fantastic album. At times reminded me of SoaD but angrier. It is a long but the time flew by and found myself wanting more when it was done. This is going on the metal playlist for sure. 10/10

Prime Shamona Te-He! Michael Jackson. I haven’t heard over half this album before but the songs I have heard are some of the most well known Jackson songs. The songs I hadn’t heard didn’t really do anything for me but the hits absolutely bang. 8/10

Just because something is a national phenomenon doesn’t mean it’s good. 1/10

Someone take the mic away from this old smoker lady. 1/10

The definitive Beck album. A great country folk punk pop funk techno album that has a wide variety of music with Beck’s distinctly monotone voice bringing it all together. 8/10

Concentrationcampcore. This is not music, just an angry German yelling and bashing pans for an hour. 1/10

The first two Chemical Brothers albums were my introduction to electronic music and I still to this day have not found another group that I think sounds similar to this. Their sound is defined and unique. Partly nostalgia speaking but these two albums are easily in my top 10 most listened to albums of all time. 10/10

Horniest album on this platform. Man there are some bangers on here, “Diggin on you” & “Waterfalls” but when over half of the songs are about fuckin and being a slut it really drags the listening down. Theres also 5 “songs” that are bits and just people saying Crazy Sexy Cool. Andre 3000 in the last song just shows how he can steal the spotlight instantaneously. I started to feel like some of the singing and rapping was almost a parody of itself as the voices began sounding humorous instead of serious. A bit dated and waaaay to horny. 5/10

This was better than the last Pogues album we got but it’s really kind of just the same some over and over for an hour. Another Christmas song for some reason. I liked the part where the lead singer got too drunk to sing anymore so for half the album so other guy comes in and sings and then theres like 5 songs with no singing so I guess that guy got too drunk to sing too and the band was like well I guess we will just jam for a bit. 6/10

Run of the mill 60s music. 5/10

It’s The Smiths but missing the best part, the instrumentals. It’s decent but I don’t think it really does anything special of note. 6/10

A delightfully melancholic listen. 8/10

Missy does what popular artists like Meghan and Minaj do now but with more fines and less brain rot. Still not my cup of tea. This is a long album and after a while I became desensitized to it and it just became background noise. 5/10

Better than the last Beastie Boys album since half of it is just beats and jams. It’s also got Sabotage which is the best song they have made. 6/10

One of the first introductions into electronic music. My first introduction to electronic music. It’s just as weird and oddly satisfying as the first time I listened to it as a kid. 8/10

Better than the last Rolling Stones album. Tonally every song sounded the same. Pretty long and towards the middle It all melded into one long song. This is one of those albums that made it on the list because it is a big band but the album is mediocre at best. 5/10

Pretty generic. Songs were very repetitive and just generally kind of boring. 3/10

Marvin’s best album. Smooth, funky, short and sweet. 8/10

Funky, expressive, very nice. I was not a huge fan the slower songs. Songs did start to meld together a bit towards the end. 7/10

Messy, chaotic, blues punkabilly rock. I liked small bits but mostly was unphased by the majority. More than half of the songs I listened to about 30 seconds then skipped. I don’t think this a very accessible album to most and not sure it really deserves to be on this list. 4/10

This is a band that my mum would put on constantly and I loathed it as a child. Her throaty frog voice pissed me and the instrumentals dug into my wrinkly little brain. Now as an adult I actually rather enjoyed this listen. This is also not the album my mum overplayed the shit out of so that helped. The more 80s vibe to the instrumentals changed the song dynamics quite a bit from the album I remember listening to which I believe was more 90s themed. Pretty great vocals and lovely instrumentals. “Apron Strings” is definitely a song that has been played a child’s funeral. 8/10

Really funny how he went from rappin about gangbangin and bangin hoes with his very descript dick to being a nazi and doing kids movies. The best song on the album is also about not doing any of the above listed things and it’s great. Rest of the album is extremely repetitive but kind of crazy how he could say the same things over and over in different ways. 5/10

My introduction to hip hop. The only group that has come close to this vibe is Tribe and Q-tip is in this album. Could be nostalgia but I think this album just slaps from front to back 10/10

I think I wanted to like it but kind of just didn’t. Every song felt like it should have ended but then there was like 2 minutes of guitar noise or some bullshit. 4/10

Very similar to the first album we had from them. Less chaotic, more generic. Still can’t understand anything she be yodeling. 4/10

The best modern rap I have heard but still just not my cup of tea. The biggest difference I noticed was that of the instrumental production. Other modern rap artists simply do not have enjoyable background instrumentals and this album did. Take that away and I don’t think it would be much different from the other artists. He raps about pretty much the same stuff others do and his style does differ slightly but not enough to be that notable. The Kat Williams voice consistently made me chuckle, I was just waiting for a pimp named slick back reference. Overall decent listen and I can now see why people like him so much. 6/10

Pretty generic psych rock. Feel like there have been 10 other albums that sounded just like this. As the album went on, the singer seemingly kept getting farther and farther away from the mic until it sounded like he was in a different room entirely. Bathroomcorepschyrock. 4/10

Started out like a early 2000s rock band trying to imitate classic rock from the 70s/80s then morphed into something entirely different. Half way through I really noticed the sax began to shine. Suprisingly around the half way mark I think the album really hit its stride. The folky blues rock of the latter songs really fit their vibe and if they had stuck to that theme for the entirety I think it would’ve been a much better album as a whole. Still enjoyed it. 7/10

Honestly what the fuck is this doing on here. One of the ear grating, annoying albums I have ever had to listen to. The instrumentals would have been O.K. at best if they didn’t just loop for over 5 minutes at a time. Don’t even get me started about the little man drunkenly yelling into a megaphone on the lowest volume possible. What. the. FUCK! 1/10

What a fun album. God I love the basslines in throughout the whole runtime. Awesome vocals that really fit the tone and backing instruments. I still prefer the Fun Boy Three version of “Our Lips are Sealed” but I think is the more successful version. Bunch of great songs on here. 9/10

My second favorite Joy Division album. 6/10

Science center ambiance sounds. 1/10

Background classic metal which to background music to. 5/10

Background classic metal which to background music to. 5/10

First half: A handful of very unique Bowie songs that were definitely before their time and inspired an entire era of music that followed. Second half: A masterpiece of instrumentals that take you on a wordless journey. Honestly could have taken an entire album of just this and a separate album with the first half. 9/10

I like beats. I didn’t really like the beats with singing. Songs were a bit long and repetitive. Don’t know if this really deserves to be on here as it didn’t do anything to stand out. Another album that came and went and I will have forgotten about it by tomorrow. 5/10

Moody, mellow, rainy day jazz. Just delightful. Great album to start the day with. 8/10

German Jam Background noise barely any singing and when there is the audio for the vocals is way too low. 3/10

Man I have always despised this type of singing. This album did not change that. 2/10

I’m not listening to this god damned album again and getting.. Parklife! Ahhh fuck me now I am going to be yelling Parklife randomly the rest of the week. 4/10

The best Morrissey album yet. Even without the band mates of the Smiths this still has some reminiscent vibes but also does a good job standing away from The Smiths sound at the same time. A few songs that were a bit forgettable but overall a much better listen than the last one we had. 8/10

Honestly, I could have listened to “Rio” over and over and been satisfied. But the album proceeds to bring banger after banger. What an icon band and album that defined the 80s. 10/10

The singer has a way with words and by that I mean I don’t know if he knows how words are pronounced. Jokes aside they have an addictive sound that borders on folk rock with a bit heavy rock. I’ve never heard this album and only know them from their super popular album but I see that they had fame even before that. Funny though that I enjoyed basically every song that was in the million view range on this album and didn’t really like the popular ones. 8/10

80s fetish music. Each song sounded basically the same. Loud overproduced 80s crap that has not aged well. Microplastics in the balls right here. 3/10

Mellow, serene, absolute disaster of a last song. 5/10

Little bit folk little bit blues little bit rock. An interesting album with my favorite song of their’s “My doorbell”. 7/10

The buzzcocks but faster and a bit more modern. “Alright” is a great song even it has become know through commercials. 7/10

Possibly one of the best live albums I’ve ever heard. Everything is so crisp and the solos are phenomenal. All around a fantastic listen that just flew by due to how much I was enjoying it. 10/10

School house rock voice. 6/10

Some albums are front loaded, some are back loaded, this one is middle loaded with the biggest songs of all time. These songs are iconic and if the album was just the middle it would be a 10/10 masterpiece because of the magnitude of the hits. Unfortunately the songs surrounding these are just no where near as good and bog down the beginning and end. 9/10

Three of the biggest songs from my middleschool/highschool time. These songs were everywhere. They still hold up and are absolute bangers but the rest of the album is pretty mediocre to not great. I also have not heard anything else from MGMT since so no idea if they are still making music. I guess technically not one hit wonders but more like 3 hit wonders. 7/10

Another noise in the background album. When there was “singing” I wished there wasn’t. Very forgettable, very questionable why it’s on this list. 2/10

This is the punk I was raised on. Henry Rollins went from being one of the angriest violient dudes ever to an absolutely amazing intellectual human being. I have sense moved away from punk in general but I will always appreciate Black Flag and this album in particular. 8/10

Some really unique stuff here. Talking Heads is one of my favorite bands so any album by them will be ranked highly, even if David Byrne does go on nonsensical tangents pretty often in this one. The biggest song “Take me to the river” is not my favorite off the album and I actually enjoy pretty much every other song more. 8/10

Another album that I appreciate more than I like. They are the godfadders of techno and electronica but when it comes down to it, most of the album is just a collection of sci-fi noises played repeatedly for far too long. 6/10

Mellow duet country classic rock. 5/10

I want to crucify myself after having to listen to this. Sad piano girl music. Every song is basically the same song. They are all too long with not enough changing throughout the songs. 3/10

I made it half way through the first song. 1/10

Not the Bee Gees I was expecting. Really mellow relaxing music. 5/10

Bottom of the barrel or whiskey. British gibberish. 2/10

Short sweet Bowie, delightful. 8/10

Bar music, bluesy blues bar music, bar music where they do the square dance every Saturday night. Too long bar music. 4/10

I’m sure this band has some unique genre attached to them but it’s just classic rock to me. It’s good classic rock but that’s what it sounds like. Some pretty big hit on here even though Born to be wild doesn’t sound like it was made by them and I’m too lazy to fact check that. Perfectly serviceable classic rock. 7/10

Love wakin up to some nice smooth jazz. Great composition and some really amazing sections throughout. Some parts got a bit repetitive and could have gone with a few minutes less but still fantastic all around. 8/10

Best Frank Sinatra album I’ve heard. A little bit on the long side with 15 songs, especially when the second half of the album starts to get repetitive. Would have been great if the album was cut in half. 7/10

I won’t put myself through any more of this narcissistic losers music. 1/10

Listened to 5 of the 25 songs and decided I had heard enough. 3/10

Slight nostalgia rating from the first song being sung by my grandpa growing up but man this album slaps if you are into this kind of music. Fantastic storytelling with intertwining lyrics and background music that really highlight the singing. 10/10

I think I charted my pants. 4/10

Did Faith No More copy Red Hot Chili Peppers or did Red Hot Chili Peppers copy Faith No More? The world will never know… 6/10

Background music that was grounded to to the back. 4/10

Indie girl screams in one tone for an hour with random noises playing. 2/10

I don’t hate it - My wife 7/10

I remember not liking Coldplay and thinking his voice was annoying and kind of fake. Now with a relisten and 10ish years since I last tried, they are way more enjoyable. Nice mellow backing music mixed with his soft voice makes a delightful listen. 8/10

Storytellin’ blue collar tales spoken word with religious undertones. 6/10

Reminds me a bit of The Buzzcocks. Some pretty interesting musical sections that on their own are fantastic. Vocals at times fit and other times don’t. Pretty mixed about this one as there were bits that I really enjoyed and bits that just fell flat. 5/10

4/10

What a voice. Starts with a banger then a bunch if love songs. 7/10

Bano is a terd. 5/10

Damn near a masterpiece. The songs that I hadn’t heard were bangers and the songs I have heard are ultra bangers. “life on mars” is Bowie’s greatest creation. Insane to me that this album is from 71’ and his fourth album. Bowie is eternal. 10/10

This is in my top 3 childhood albums. I have listened to this album hundreds of times and it holds a special place in my heart. Nearly a perfect album in my eyes except that I have always skipped “One Love” as I feel it interrupts the vibe the rest of the album lays out. It just fuckin slaps. The beats, the raps, the singing is just phenomenal. I still to this day say “Massive” when I wanna describe something that’s awesome. I wish more people knew about Massive and I know they have had success and a following but they are definitely overshadowed in how great some of these earlier albums were. Nostalgia rating 10/10 , nonstalgia rating 9/10

Girl punk. Sounds like music made for a tv show or a movie about girl punks. Borderline video game music made to be a big moment in a video game for the female protagonist. The instrumentals are fine to good throughout but the singing is just one tone yelling. Can’t understand anything she is yelling and there is zero vocal range. The vocals really just drag the whole thing down. 4/10

All this lady’s music sounds the same. Honestly if you took away the gaps this could have been one long song since each song follows the same exact format without fail. Her voice is fine but she really is just rambling and describing things she “sees”. 4/10

I’ve heard of him but thought it was rap. Pretty surprised to find out its more R&B. Not my cup of tea. Long album where most of the songs were repetitive and sounded similar. 5/10

You like jaaaazz? 7/10

Pretty in pink is the big hit while the others kind of just become background noise. The lead singer has one tone/sound that is so consistent throughout that it makes the album sound repetitive. 5/10

This sucks. Super generic crap. This is the shit they play at sports bars while you mindlessly shovel wings down your gullet. 2/10

Wow! This is awful stuff. Unorganized, cluttered, messy. Every song has really weird tempo issues with the singing and the music. The album is mixed terribly so the levels are all over the place. Really just annoying. 1/10

Culturally, political beats to impend doom to. 8/10

Wasn’t a fan of Bob Dylan’s early works, still not a fan of his later works either. Raspy old man voice sing talks to some bluesy backings. 3/10

Me: “It’s all bangers” “It always has been” :Billy Joel in a astronaut suit holding a gun to the back of my head 10/10

British noises taking place in the background. 4/10

Not as good as the last album. Even harder to understand what he is saying. Background music was meh. 5/10

My favorite rap album of all time. Every song is a banger. The lines, the beats, the various artists that come together to bring solid song after solid song. The fact that this is a debut album still blows my mind. Masterpiece. 10/10

Favorite Stones album that I have gotten on this list so far. Can you hear me knockin is probably my favorite Stones song. The album lingers a bit and is a lot slower/bluesy? than the others I have heard. Solid listen even if it overstays its welcome a bit. 7/10

Maybe the most 80s album I have ever heard. Parts are catchy while some parts are cluttered and chaotic. I didn't hate it but I didn’t love it. 6/10

Best Christian album I have ever heard. 7/10

Sad sad Beck. A bit boring with it being so slow and each song sounding very similar. 4/10

Add this to the “one big song so the album should be on the list” list. 3/10

Add this to the “one big song so the album should be on the list” list. 3/10

Started with their most recognizable song. A generational banger that has continued to be a huge hit for decades. Then I realized after half way through the album that all the songs sound incredibly similar which made me wonder why Blitz was the one that was the most popular. It’s slightly more catchy than the rest but honestly they all sound so similar that any other songs could have also been mega hits. Over all a bit too long and not varied enough to discern song from song. 6/10

The most classic of classic rock. They have a rollercoaster at Didney. I liked the song about big fat 10 inch cock. 5/10

Wow. I was worried it would be another 1st song is the big hit followed by a bunch of ehh songs but this had 4 of the biggest hits of the 70s that are still extremely recognizable today. Amazing voice, amazing instrumentals throughout. Truly a fantastic listen from start to finish. 10/10

Only knew the first absolutely huge hit on this album but there were a couple bangers throughout. I enjoyed the more upbeat songs to the slower paced ones. 7/10

Another album slightly ruined by childhood experience. My mum would play this album on repeat while driving around so these songs are ingrained into my memory and as a kid, I fucking hated this band and this album. With a wildly different perspective as an adult now I still hate most of the songs on this album. The first half is borderline cringe with songs that are just too loud and fast with most of lyrics being either guttural noises or unintelligible. I counted 4 out of the 12 songs that I actually enjoyed and they were all in the slower paced second half. Not as bad as it was when I was a kid but still not my thing. 5/10

Great jam live album that feels like one song. Compared to the other album I have heard this one falls a bit short with the other have much more variety and song variation. Still a fun listen. 7/10

No

The perfect example of Radiohead’s “Im unsure if I love it or hate it”. The ambiance, theming and some of musical aspects are great but then his mindless unintelligible babbling is at points honestly horrendous. No song stuck out as being very great and even the songs that had good parts also had parts I really didn’t enjoy. Actually kind of disappointed as I hear Kid-A mentioned as one of if not the best Radiohead album, but after having listened to like 4 albums it might be one of my least favorites. 4/10

Another Morrissey album that just reminds me why I love The Smiths, the instrumentals. Every Morrissey album has been fine but just missing the specialness of The Smiths music. I don’t listen to The Smiths for Morrissey’s singing and each solo album just cements this in even more. 5/10

Serene, melancholic, genre bending. An interesting voice bolstered by unique instrumentals. Pretty solid listen throughout. 8/10

Acoustic punk masterpiece. This is an album that I grew up listening to basically on repeat. Every song is a banger. It’s structured so incredibly well in the sense of how you listen to it. This is easily is my top five favorite albums of all time. It’s a rollercoaster of stress, hate, late, envy and melancholy wrapped into what I think to be a almost perfect experience. 10/10

The best country comedy prison themed live from a prison album I have heard. 7/10

The best Jackie Chan themed song I have ever heard. The entire album sounds ad libbed. The singer uses the word “you” so much that you would die if you did a drinking game everytime he says it. Aggressively mediocre. Add this to the list of “albums not to listen to before you die”. 2/10

This paved the way for Flavor Flav to make trash reality television. 5/10

Two commercially known songs and 7 songs that were the definition of ok. 5/10

The best Genesis album I have heard yet (what is this like the 4th or 5th?). More of a jam album where each song leads into the next with multiple songs that were just noises. Really long, maybe the longest album I have listened to on here but it does somewhat go by pretty fast. At times kind of becomes muddled with being very similar throughout. Reminded me of Yes a lot throughout with some of the music and singing sounding like them. 7/10

Very strange. Sometimes good. Sometimes bad. The last song was awful clown music. Its like if you took a bunch of genres and artists and mashed them together like potatoes. 5/10

It took me almost the entire double album to figure it out but I hear so much Hall & Oates in this album. I can’t say that double album helped this one as there were a handful of clownlike songs that really werent great. There was a few fantastic songs, the album opens with “Saw the light” the most recognizable and best song on the album. It definitely struggles to keep up the momentum after the first song but is still a pretty solid albeit long album. 7/10

This is not what I thought Janis Joplin sounded like. The voice of a heavy smoking angel. The a cape lo song was awful. Why do these 70s albums go country halfway through, so strange. Not really my kind of music but I can appreciate the talent that is there. The biggest song has been ruined for me by an extremely cringey perfume commercial featuring Natalie Portman, bleh. 6/10

Conflicted. Lyrically a mess and the first half to middle of the album is trash. Even with the instrumentals on some of the early songs be pretty great it is ultimately destroyed by the awful lyrics. The latter portion of the album is much better and man if it would have just been those songs this would probably have been a much more enjoyable experience. 4/10

Girl grunge. Every song sounded the same. For grunge being the edgy 90s genre this was so tame and boring. Found myself skimming through each song and eventually just skipping the last few. 2/10

If My Chemical Romance and Radio Head had a baby. 8/10

Maybe I need to be a certain mood to enjoy this but I was not in that mood today. Monotone man sing talks over very basic music that sometimes looses all structure and turns into nonsense. 4/10

Is this real? I feel like this is one of those skits where some comedians make country songs and the bit just goes on a little too long and enters into not funny territory. They literally pick on sentence pronounce all the words incorrectly and then repeat that sentence for like 5 mins per song. Throw this on the list of “Why is this on here?” 2/10

A very strange album. Has some unique techno/pop aspects to it while still sticking with a early 2000s indie vibe. The monotone sing talking and repetitiveness of the lyrics does not work for me and kind of takes away from the album. Either without vocals or a different direction this could have been great. 5/10

Not my favorite Smiths album but there are some great songs on here. “Unhappy Birthday” is fantastic and I hum the lyrics all the time. There are couple skips on this album just because they are too long and slow for my taste. If I would have grown up listening to this one more I maybe would have a better view of it but this was not one The Smiths albums of my childhood. Solid album which some great variation of songs but just not on the same level as their other albums. 7/10

I know this is from the 70s but the audio quality/mixing is just terrible. Still don’t think live albums should be on this list except for a few exceptions. 3/10

I know the joke about Bob Dylan is that all his songs sound the same but hear me out, they all sound the same. 3/10

I will continue to love listening to jazz in the morning. There was nothing that stood out on this one as being really worthy of the list other than just being solid jazz. I appreciate that it is shorter as it does not overstay its welcome. 6/10

Possibly the most 80s sounding album ever created and not in a good way. 3/10

Wow, this was bad. 2/10

The most jazzy jazz jazz could jazz. If you want to feel like you are in the lobby of a fancy hotel, this is the album for you. Jokes aside it’s solid if not a bit repetitive. 7/10

Strong confederate soldier loosing the war vibes. I’ve have heard The Band mentioned a lot in various musical discussions but never actually listened to them. Also never have I heard any of the songs on the album so I am still unsure what their big hits are. A bit too trailer trash core for me. Sure they are talented musicians but this just isn’t my style. 4/10

A forgotten gem from my childhood. I had this album on CD and would use it to fall asleep at night. The songs can be a bit repetitive in nature but they are such bangers that it just doesn’t matter. “Groove is in the heart” is the best and most 90s song in creation. Absolutely adore this album. 10/10

I could hear a bunch of different bands in this. For example: The Smits, Nicolas Cavern & the Okay Seeds, and David Mathias Group. The latter half when it became much slower and melancholic was the best part. 6/10

Rainy day jazz with three guys absolutely destroying their respective instruments. The bass player was a tier above the other two. Another live album that I feel is ruined by the constant chatter of people in the audience. 7/10

This album has three of my favorite Talking Heads songs: Cities, Life During Wartime, & Air. The rest of the album can be a bit experimental and chaotic. I don’t dislike the other songs, they just don’t scratch that Talking Heads itch like the three I listed do. Might be a bit biased based off have three of my favs but this is still a great listen. 8/10

School House Rock for adults. The name was familiar so I looked her up and was surprised to find out that this is not some new upcoming singer that made a debut during covid but someone who has been around since the 90s. She has an interesting voice that feels unrefined and after reading the wiki maybe that was what she was going for? Made with garage band and you can tell, there is a heavy amateur sense throughout. I didn’t dislike any of the songs but I didn’t really like them either. A nice luke warm 5/10

Wow this is bad. Generic crap. Sucks that whenever I see an album made after 2010 there’s a huge chance is going to be this shit. It’s like this music is made in a factory where the workers plug in a couple random things and poop out an album. Super overused backing beats, a style of singing that gets annoying 10 seconds in and then proceeds to not alter the rest of the album, disgusting description of sexual activities like a horny 14 year old wrote the lyrics and the list of mediocrity goes on. Then they input these messages about women being abused in between the songs that seem to only focus on sex, like what the fuck is that about? Sexualizing and demoralizing yourself, then immediately crying about being sexualized and demoralized? What a joke 1/10

Amazing voice. Kind of dull lyrics. Almost every song is about falling in love with a man. That’s great but when the backing music and her voice barely change, it’s like listening to the same song over and over. My favorites were the songs not about falling in love with a man. 6/10 *I guess I only listened to part one of the box set? I couldn’t make it through three hours of this…*

Unhinged Dracula core. 4/10

This is video game music. I have heard so many games BGMs try to mimic this style over the past 10 years of playin indie games and this is it. If you like this kind of house jungle music this is great. I could see how this would not do it for most people though. 8/10

I went from never having heard of Fionna Apple to having listened to two albums within a week. This album was definitely better than the last one which was her most recent from 2020. Feels 90s but in a good way? I do think this is the kind of album that teenage girls based their entire identity around and I would love for someone to confirm that. She has a nice voice which touches into a darker deeper side of singing that most female singers never seem to really go into. The background music fits the bill but is pretty shallow as to let her vocals really shine. Overall pretty good album even if its not my preferred style/genre of music. 7/10

I somehow have avoided listening to Madonna other than mega hits that I probably didn’t even know was Madonna. The super 80s style songs weren’t great, pretty dated and just kind of annoying. The songs that didn’t push the 80s theme in your face as much were better. Till death do us part was my favorite on the album. I enjoyed Dear Jessie and its innocent nature. I could just feel that something sinister was to follow and it did with Oh Father, a song about child abuse. Overall some hits, mostly misses for me at least. 6/10

Its like Amy Winehouse baby talking through medieval music. If Bjork was an American teenager who could play the harp. I will never understand this singing/style of making it sound like you have shoved a bunch of nuts in your cheeks and then sucked all the helium out of a balloon. Was that a smoke detector? The instrumentals in the first song not only didn’t match the singing style, they didn’t even match the tempo of the singing. At points I actually thought I was hearing one of my dogs squeaky toys but no it was her hitting notes that were to say, unhuman. Each song was waaaay too long, I know she is telling nonsensical stories but sheesh. If she is playing the harp and singing that’s impressive but that’s just about the only compliment I can give. This would have been great as an instrumental album. It does remind me a bit of bands like Alt-J and Bombay Bicycle Club but I would just rather listen to them over this. 5/10

Always start an album with a guttural scream. More unhinged Rolling Stones. The first three songs were pretty generic classic rock. I enjoyed the softer 4th song Lonely Planet Boy. The perfect album to listen to 30 seconds of each song and move on to the next. 4/10

Bit of a front loaded album. The first few tracks are fantastic. Band on the run is obviously the stand out and they bring it back in different from throughout the rest of the album. The slower songs were a bit of a miss and I found myself wishing they kept the upbeat tempo from the beginning of the album. Overall still a solid album just could have been even better. 6/10

Theres good and bad here. First the good: the drummer is amazing, at times it reminded me of SoD which is always nice, theres not a lot of heavy metal on this platform so its always nice to see it pop up. Second the bad: the singer is not great, sounds like he is going to hawk a loogie through the speakers, the british versions where he is not doing flemo is ok but doesn’t really match the tone. His tempo was kind of off throughout the whole album. The other instrumentals other than drums were super mediocre. The songs were too long and I got sick of each one after like a minute. Overall mostly negative with a couple positives. 4/10

Very strong voice. Super fun album. Pretty sure that was the lion king song. The song about the flea was great. The song with the guy laughing was also great. I’ve said it before, I would love more world music on this list as it really changes it up and makes you listen to something you would otherwise never have heard before. 7/10

Never been a huge Metallica listener. I figured this might be their biggest album, especially since Master of Puppets was brought to the global plane recently with Stranger Things using it. I had never heard any of the other songs on here. They are great muscians all around and definitely deserve all the credit they get. There were some points where I lost track of the song and couldn’t tell if a new song had started or if I was still listening to the same one, I guess this comes with the style of their music/singing. Overall still a great album. 7/10

China Crisis meets Flight of the Concords. 5/10

With no due respect, fuck no. 1/10

Blondie meets the soundtrack of a Katamari game. Very 90s, very weird at times but some really great songs on here. Could be considered a one hit wonder album with Lovefool being such a massive hit but there are some other fantastic songs on here. Her breathy airy voice really works with the genre of music they produce, which I dont even know what to call it other than 90s rock pop? 8/10

Is this the acid India trip album? A couple pretty big hits but overall didn’t really do anything for me. The songs in-between the hits were instantly forgettable and even a couple I debated skipping because they were simply unenjoyable to listen to. Makes me wonder if this album came out before they were global phenomenons would it have been as popular? A somewhat overhyped album that radiates with fart smeller aura. 6/10

Why the Disney man say the n word? A lot more politically charged than what I thought Randy Newman’s music would sound like. 5/10

The doors, the stones, violent femmes and a man who either is super drunk, congested or both. 7/10

Brilliant poetical songwriting. Everytime I get a Leonard Cohen album I always think, “He’s just better Bob Dylan”. 7/10

There were two songs I thought were okay, the one where he kept saying next and the last song. Partly because they were so different than the other generic crap on the album and partly because the last song was the end of a not great album. 3/10

Painfully generic country garbage. I don’t even really like old Springsteen so 12 albums in definitely not going to do it. I guess once you’ve done everything in your previous genre you have to do the country voice and talk about God. Why is this on this list? 2/10

A masterpiece of perfection. Every song flows deliciously. The perfect length of an album where its not too short or too long. Each song is unique in its sound while all staying grounded to a specific style. Stevie Wonder is one of the greatest musicians of all time. So glad I grew up listening to this album as it still is an absolute banger to this day. Eternal perfection. 10/10

Perfectly 60s. Very clean sounding album with some great tunes. Nothing extremely memorable and I most likely won’t seek it out again but it was a nice listen. 7/10

Almost two Stevie albums back to back, blessed. This one is a bit longer and more drawn out than the previous. Couple bangers with a bunch of pretty good songs but I feel the last album was more tight and a masterpiece. 8/10

Love The Jam, never listened to one of their albums from front to back so this was a treat. Some pretty tasty British pop punk jams in here and some interesting compositions. I do still like Style Council more but this is still some great music. 8/10

Great singer, great musicians, the same song sung the same the over different backing instrumentals for the whole album. 6/10

I think I have heard more Radiohead on this platform than I have in my entire life. I now have a love hate relationship with them. Some songs I enjoy some I really don’t. This album didn’t really do anything for me. None of the songs really stood out as great or bad. His voice was a bit more whiney in this one than previous and that annoyed me somewhat. Hopefully this is the last Radiohead album I get on here because anytime they pop up now I get PTSD. 4/10

Probably my favorite R.E.M. album. This is what I listened to as a kid on vacation in a shitty cd player. The last song on the album “West of fields” is my favorite song by them and a few others on this album are pretty close. There are a few songs that I kind of tune out or would skip but overall love this album. 9/10

Dave Bowy. If you like David Bowie you’ll probably like this. Super surprised to see this is one of the members of Roxy Music as I have not liked any of the Roxy Music I have listened to. This was pretty good except for a song or two where I either just didn’t enjoy it or thought it went on too long. Still would rather listen to Bowie from this era but this is still good. 7/10

Love Outkast. There are some bangers on here. Some bangers I have never heard before. There are also a handful of I would say skippable songs, including the skits/bits in between songs that just don’t do anything for me. Not sure they were trying to tell some kind of short story or just messing around but they just don’t add anything of substance to the album. It’s also a really long album that towards the end you really start to feel the run time as I found myself checking how many songs were left. Overall a solid album with a few caveats. 6/10

Fine for what it is. Kind of like a more edgy beatles? A band that used to be a household name but has perhaps faded into the past a bit. Does sound a bit like a lot of other music from the time but that could mean they were that influential. Not my cup of tea but I can see how people would love this. 5/10

Like a mix of Will Smith and De La Soul. 6/10

“It’s just one song” me “It always has been” John Coltrane, standing behind me wearing an astronaut suit holding a saxophone like a gun. 7/10

Borders on drunken rambling and annoying off tempo noise. Not a great combo. 3/10

Spanish chanting intensifies. It would be a lot better if each song wasn’t the same 10 seconds of music repeated for 5 minutes. 3/10

Two absolute banger hits that I have heard before. A bunch of tasty jams. One song that was someone just rubbing a pick against guitar strings for 5 minutes. And a lot of soul jazz funk deliciousness that reminds me of Hendrix. 8/10

Great album by a solo Beatle. Never heard any of these songs but there is a wide variety for such a long album. The latter half of the album does become a long jame session which I honestly could have gone without to cut some time on the full runtime. 6/10

Pretty standard 90s rap with very repetitive beats. 4/10

Aggressively obnoxious, loud, and annoying. 2/10

Depressed Mode. Moody gothic techno christian music from the 80s. Not the best Depeche album but its got some good songs and a somewhat short runtime makes it more palatable. 6/10

Wow, theres maybe one whole song that is intelligible in this entire album. 2/10

I only know two QoTSA songs and neither of them were on this album. Starts off pretty good with some great alt rock/90s style rock songs but then they just decided to stop singing and repeat the same sound/riff/noise for like 5 minutes until a random song would come in. Very strange pacing on this album. I liked what I heard in the first half but they lost me halfway through. 5/10

I wrote a whole review and it deleted it after I submitted it. Oh well, the album was alright. 6/10

Lovely songs that all are about the same thing and sound the same. 6/10

Jamiroquai makes music for PS2 era SEGA games and I need it injected into my blood. 10/10

It became background noise. Ameturitistic but a very clean sound. Generic. Seems like they liked to jam a bit more than have a structured song as there was not a lot of lyrics/vocals throughout. 4/10

He sings like he is trying to use his inside voice while being shaken. I’ve heard two of these songs while shopping for groceries. Perfectly suitable country/rock 70s music that I really don’t have a big opinion on. 5/10

Masterpiece. Possibly the greatest musicians of all time. Everything is so clean and technically insane. 10/10

If you thought Glam rock died in the 80s, it didn’t, it had one last spurt of life in 2003 before fading away. I believe in a thing called love was a massive song when it came out and I think people still know about it. The rest of the album, I can’t attest to the fame but they are no where near as catchy. Not my thing in the first place so still not my thing with the attempted revival. 4/10

Why isnt it called teenage wasteland? 4/10

Possibly the most modern sounding 90s album I have ever heard. Before checking I could not peg when this was made. At first I thought 80s but then thought the production value was to high and sounded more like something from the early 2000/10s. Really nailed the sound of a lot of rock bands from 2000 a whole decade before. An album that possibly is made even better knowing the backstory to why there isn’t more music from them. 7/10

He has a nice rasp to his voice but the music is a little generic. Songs go on too long with nothing changing them up so they become repetitive. 5/10

This is like my 9th jazz album on here. I like jazz but some of these albums just become background fodder noise and don’t really stand out as to why they are deserved of being on this list. 5/10

Great jazz album with one of if not the most recognizable jazz songs of all time, “Take Five”. The rest of the album is solid if not a bit overshadowed by the legacy of the biggest song. 7/10

Early 2000s British children show music core. To a normal persons ear, it’s off key, strangely composed with the singing style, but to a little British child from early 2000s this is like a lullaby. Too bad I am not an early 2000s British child. 4/10

From the same era as Tribe and De La Soul but doesn’t quite reach the same highs. Some nice beats and lyrical prowess throughout but brought down by a long runtime. I enjoyed it but did start to check times and how many songs were left a little over halfway through. 6/10

Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque. 8/10

Chuck’s style, lyrics and commentary is great. Flavors’s style, lyrics and commentary is not great. While Chuck forms coherent sentences that speak on social issues of the time, Flavor can be heard just saying random things that are completely irrelevant. Almost all the songs featured an ear grating noise that continued throughout the whole song and almost drove me crazy. Its the equivalent of having a smoke alarm going off while someone is rapping to it. Could have been an amazing album if Flavor shut up and they replaced the batteries in their smoke alarm. 5/10

I love The Jam and Style Council but have never listened to any of Weller’s solo stuff. I enjoy his voice but the backing music just doesnt do it for me. A lot of it just comes over super bland and generic. Still a solid album but I would rather listen to songs about how hot summer is while Weller touches himself in a john boat half naked. 6/10

Never heard any of these songs from the Pixies. Could be because they are very ok. They are not bad by any means but not great either. Kind of one of those play in the background kind of albums. 5/10

If Ace of Spades was the entire album I would have been satisfied. Its not that the other songs are bad but that Ace of Spades is soo good it makes the others just sound like lesser versions of it. Since the vocal style and musical themes are so similar throughout it makes this even more apparent. 10/10 Single. 6/10 Album

Sly & the squeezing of the family stones. 90% of this album is someone peeking a microphone while making noises that I can only describe as guttural. The backing music instruments while nice but are a bit generic and kind of forgettable. All I could hear from the drums was that they were using drum machines which is kind of crazy for 71’. Another background album to background music too. 4/10

He raps like he is reading a chemistry textbook. Lots and lots of metaphors. Very 90s beats with so many record scratches. I got to the skit where a “man” (don’t know if that was supposed to be Dr. Octagon) impersonates a gynecologist and proceeds to sexually assault a woman and I just had to tap out. It was very ok for what I listened to but once again not something I think I needed to listen to before I die. 3/10

The safest 90s album I have ever heard. Every song is very simple in that they are formatted the same way, guitar riff with like 3 progressions, the same tempo for vocals, very basic drumline, the bassist does his job and then the song is done. Just really not for me. 2/10

Modestest Mouse. It almost lulls you to sleep in like a siren song kind of way. Very simple yet pretty effective. 7/10

The Ramonots, The Buzzcants, Sex Pisdonts. 3/10

I have heard this album once or twice before. Two of the songs on here were absolutely massive when this album came out. You heard both of them everywhere and certainly started to get that played out feeling when they would come on. Even with that it is hard to deny that this group is extremely talented and their music is very emotional and gripping. I think they might be the pioneers of yelling with a bit of reverb indie music. 8/10

I’ve heard this album at least 50 times. Basically the entire Marley discography is all I listened to like 15 years ago. Great stuff with a couple absolute bangers on here. This is one of the albums that has a more melancholic sound while talking about political topics that were very heavy for music that is normally associated with weed and happiness. 8/10

What a unique genre bending experience. Starts out funk, melts into reggae, slows down to mellow indie all while keeping a thematic sound that is complete throughout. Feel like this one will need a couple relistens to fully appreciate it. 9/10

Didn’t I Only Nut Man, I just wasnt feelin this one 2/10

As soon as I saw Rod I heard it. A quite raspy screeching in the back of my mind. An insidious countryish backing and a man intent on destroying his vocal cords. I will admit I have never heard anything of Stewarts past his ultra megahit which shall not be named. This was a pleasant surprise except for that first song, that song was pretty awful. I didn’t mind his raspy voice as much as I thought and actually ended up liking at least one of the songs (the hobo one). Still not my typical genre but it was perfectly serviceable. 6/10

I simultaneously have heard every one of these song and none of these songs before. If you played the first song and last song and last song and told me they were the same song, I would believe you. 99% of this album is songs about chasing girls, 1% is an ad for Mars Bars. 3/10

Man, what a depressing first song. Essentially every song is about women and activities surrounding women. The second half is almost entirely about cheating and being cheated on. With that said are the songs short and bitter sweet, which is nice because it makes the entire album go by like a flash. Great country voice and vibe coupled with slightly upsetting lyrics make a pretty great album. Plus the slide guitar go waahhoo. 7/10

Ah a throwback to my reggae pothead days. There’s two songs on here that are notable and the rest kind of become background music. Most of it sounds pretty similar. His best work was with Bob but is still decent as a stand alone artist. 6/10

I’ve seen Shaft but after listening to this I assume the story is he is a cop that plays by his owns rules while fucking every piece of tail he comes across. The music also sounds like music that plays when your on the home menu of a hotels tv guide. 4/10

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm yeesh. She simultaniously sounds like she is singing in baby talk, talking through her teeth and like she is being shaken. If Bjork was British and made more 80s sounding music. Borderline experimental at times. The songs with videos were much more structured and almost felt like they were made to be the big while songs while the rest of the album slips into fever dream territory. 7/10
