I’m in two minds about this one. On one hand it’s a great rap album. Really catchy productions and it put me in a good mood. On the other hand the lyrics are cringeworthy misogynistic. It’s both a 5 and a 1 at the same time so I’ll put a 3 and be done with it.
So bland and boring it actually pisses me off. All the tracks sound exactly the same. It MIGHT work as background music.
I have no problems with really heavy music. Watain is one of my favorite bands. With that being said: this was shit. It sounds either like a demo or a parody. The A-side was slightly better but still not an album I enjoyed.
Scenes from an italian restaurant Is a real banger! Love the 70:ies production sound.
I don’t which is the best album of all time but I know it’s not this one. It might be the most overrated though. Standard nineties alternative rock. It’s ok but I can’t hear the greatness.
Half the songs are great and the other half a plodding bore.
Not bad per se but boring. It sounds extremely generic 90s girl countryrock. Will probably not listen to again.
A solid pop album.
All the tracks sound the same. Granted they rock but it gets a bit boring after a while. You shook me all night is the best track without a doubt.
Generic sounding 2010 pop. The bits that sound like LCD soundsystem are good but I rather listen to LCD…
Glam Elton is better than prog Elton.
Meandering and shapeless.
Almost a 5 but the second half is weaker than the first.
Ayn Randian progrock?
This might be the most middle of the road-album ever made. And the whitest reggae ever made too.
An album I hadn´t listned to in full in many years and I had forgotten how much I love it. There is not one bad track on this. It´s probably the most solid album Pet Shop Boys have made.
First album I couldn’t finish. 2h DnB? Not when it sounds this annoying and generic. This shit was dated back in 97 already.
Good but too long. Should have been a single disc album.
I didn´t but this album when it came out and I have no memory of listening to at a friends place or anything like that. Yet I recognized every last song of the album, not just the singles. I guess that´s a testament to how ubiquitous The Cardigans where in Sweden in the nineties. I actually don´t remember why I didn´t buy this one. I bought and loved both Emmedale and Life but I guess they where one of those bands that kinda drifted away from or maybe it was more "I loved them before they where famous"-type of thinking. Anyway: I realized that I really like this album though. It has that jazzy pop feel that I liked from the earlier albums. It feel a bit like summer and that is something I really want right now in a cold january.
Unoffensive and..nice. That is not bad qualities for an album but in the end this is very timebound bubblegum pop. A few tracks like California dreamin has a haunting quality that is interesting.
I bought this album back in the nineties but the only track I could remember was On a rope and that was the track that stood out this time too. Standard American hardcore punk in too many tracks.
A lot of blues rock and the greatest song ever put on vinyl by a rock band.
The first side is amazing. 5 without a doubt. The B side gets grating really fast with the nonsensical narration. All in all a 4.
Not BAD but very forgettable.

Oh no, love, you're not alone No matter what or who you've been No matter when or where you've seen All the knives seem to lacerate your brain I've had my share, now I'll help you with the pain You're not alone And this is where Bowies voice breaks and you KNOW he’s singing the truth just as you KNOW this is the greatest album ever made.
I hadn’t heard this album in full since the eighties. Back then it was everywhere and you couldn’t avoid it. When I listen to it now it strikes me how dated it sounds. I know it’s one of the most important pop albums of all time but apart from the three BIG singles it sound like any other Quincy Jones production from 81-85.
Bauhaus sounds like a Bret Easton Ellis novel, and that is a good thing.
Theme from Shaft is a banger but the rest of the album is just background music.
The Stones got a lot more interesting when they started writing their own material. It’s telling that the best track is Tell me, the only one that’s not a cover.
All over the place. I don’t think I’ve knowingly listened to Blood, sweat and tears before and I’m not likely to do so based on this album.
Perfect energy for cleaning the house but as an album it got a bit repetitive.
The Brel-covers are by far the best part of this album. The rest is "of it´s time". He had a lovely voice though.
Heroes is of the greatest songs ever written but the rest of the album is kinda meh.
Blandest bland that ever blanded.
This sound like every other dance/pop album from the late 80s, early 90s. All its nostalgic value has outstayed its welcome around the 40 minute mark and then it’s just annoying.
Some albums work best when you are in the right mood. Turs out the right mood for this one was "slightly annoyed with a lot to do". Cranked it up in my headphones at work and got shit done. Thank you Sonic Youth! p.s I really like the songs Thurston sings on a lot better than Kims d.s
The original track listing is not very interesting. Three covers and a whole side of guitar solos.
The good parts outweigh the proggy parts
A Beach Boys album I hadn´t heard before and it has a lot of interesting stuff going on. A few tracks don´t work and Student demostartion time must be the worst song they ever recorded. Amazingly out of touch. All in all I think I need to revisit this album a fem times.
Good but way too long. I’m tired of overlong hiphop albums.
Epic is, well.. epic but the rest of the album is kinda standard fare metal. But then again Faith no more has always been a metal band for people who don’t like metal.
In retrospect it´s funny that a lot of the "tough" guys back in high school in the eighties were actually listening to what amounts to pop. I love pop but don´t go around pretending you´re listening to hardcore antisocial violent shit when it´s more akin to Brittany Spears than Watain.
This is NOT an essential album to listen to in full. It might be the perfect record to play in the background of a dinner party but if you try to really listen to it, it gets really boring after an hour or so. A three hour box set shouldn’t be included in the list no matter how lovely Ella Fitzgeralds voice is. I’ll remember it for my next dinner party though.
The singles are great but the rest of the album tends towards droning neo psychedelica and gets a bit boring. Still, I love this album because it reminds me of a formative time in my life.
A great album marred by casual homophobia and misogyny. Some of the incel-level fantasies about hurting women leave a bad taste in my mouth.
A bit strange that I´ve never listned to these guys before. A great album! Si Tu Dois Partir must be one of the best Dylan covers of all time. I really loved the creole vibe on that track.
I guess I got used to it because I found the back half of the album a lot better than the first. The title track was a banger and I would put it on a playlist any day. Still a bit of a chore to get through.
IMPORTANT NOTICE! The album on Spotify is NOT the full album. The full album runs 41 minutes and can be found on youtube. The 22 minute cut on spotify doesn’t give the full picture. This album is rock n roll in its purest form. Jerry Lee might have been a despicable human but he could ROCK.
I wasn´t expecting an album this traditional when I saw that it was an african jazz album from 86. It´s just... jazz. It could have been recorded in 1946 by the it sounds. It´s not a bad album. It´s just very conventional.
I have no problems with really heavy music. Watain is one of my favorite bands. With that being said: this was shit. It sounds either like a demo or a parody. The A-side was slightly better but still not an album I enjoyed.
The most generic waste of time this far on the list.
I would have given this a 5 if it wasnt for Einars stupid "singing"
Outdated beats, outdated rhymes, outdated flow. REALLY outdated attitude against women.
A shitty person made a shitty album. Big surprise.
This album is on the list but nothing by Bo Diddley? Really?
Wow! I was expecting ambient noodling and instead I got rhis weird and wonderful pop album full of layers. A very pleasant surprise and an album I will be returning to.
First 4 tracks are fire. Then it turns tedious with 8 minute songs about fucking that leaves me feeling a bit sticky.
An album that is not as good as you remember it being when you were 19..
This must be the whitest album ever made.
This is Ur-punk. It’s so punk that it manages to piss off people who like punk. You either get it or you don’t.
Prince: *overrated sex noises*
Two absolute bangers and a lot of nondescript 60s pop.
Raped and freezin? Really?
There actually is a more iconic hip hop duo than Big Boi and André 3000. It´s hip hop albums and being waaaaay too long.
White guy blues is so fucking boring.
I was expecting something idiosyncratic in the vein of Becks earlier albums so I was surprised when I instead got a melancholy alt country album. Sad but beautiful. It also matched my november vibe perfectly.
A 5 with suspicious minds, 4 without. Since I only rate for original track listing it´ll be a 4.
I really try to separate the artist from his/hers work. I really do. I feel that if you don´t a lot of classic rock I impossible to judge because they were assholes the whole lot of the Whit that said; I can´t do it with Clapton. I fucking loathe him as a person. Motherfucker built his career on plundering black music and then he gets on stage and is such a racist fucking cunt that people actually start Rock against racism to counter his cuntiness. Can you imagine how much of a racist you have to be to get a fucking COUNTER MOVEMENT? People get together and hold benefit concerts against you. If not Hitler-level cuntiness, the at least Idi Amin-level. Fuck you Eric. Really fuck you.
Why does the names of half the tracks sound like third rate crypto currencies? Xtal, Heliosphan, Delphium and Actium sound like shit coins some low rent crypto-bro would try to sell me. Come to think of it, he probably listens to Aphex twin. Not actively bad bud a lot like beige wallpaper. Or a gilet vest from Patagonia.
I can’t for the life of me understand why the audience is so excited by this.
