The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars

It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

Popular Reviews

4.5. Loved it, need to look into more of this type of music

I know this is a big rock opera that some people love but it doesn’t do much for me. Kind of boring and long

1-Star Albums (11)

All Ratings (662)

Decent but kind of repetitive. Could have been half the length with pretty much the exact same vibe

Don’t personally get why Coldplay is so huge, most of this seemed generic, forgettable, and boring

Like a lot of these long jazz albums, it’s fine but gets very repetitive

Long album but unique

3.5, some good songs, not among the best rap albums I’ve heard though

Harsh and I could see why someone might not like it but I still like it after hearing it to the first time years ago

Boring, long, repetitive

I know this album is well regarded but it really didn’t do much for me, maybe I just don’t like this type of R&B but I was just bored for most of it

A lot of great songs, seems almost like progressive rock in parts

Really don’t understand the appeal, nothing really drew me in, just seemed like generic at best, boring indie rock

Lots of good songs besides All I wanna Do (which is a great song too)

Got me to listen to more country, good sound overall, some songs seem a bit similar, but overall good quality

Not sure I get why this is considered a great album, didn’t do much for me. Just seemed like kind of boring, generic indie rock

3.5? Interesting mix of genres, a bit repetitive in spots

Most of album missing from Spotify

Great album, very different and seems like early alternative

Like other punk albums, seems a bit similar after a while, but decent overall

Decent, not quite in the mood for it but not bad at all

Maybe need to relisten but did not care for it at all, not interested in the weird, whimsical, almost fantasy-esque stuff. Maybe just not in the mood for it now, but did not like it

3.5. Interesting to hear something different, in another language, nothing too spectacular though

Great classic rock album!! Several great songs

Maybe just not in the mood for this but it didn’t do much for me

4.5. Loved it, need to look into more of this type of music

Great album, felt like experiential or progressive rock and classic rock, but some other stuff like even hip hop mixed in

Cool to hear something different, don’t listen to much African music

3.5? Kind of different which is fun, but nothing spectaular

4.5, cool to hear different music I wouldn’t normally hear

Classic sounding jazz but maybe I’m just not a huge jazz fan, just feels repetitive and like the same thing after a while like you could just loop 10 minutes and it would all be the same

3.5? Interesting type of country

4.5 at least

Well made album, just for whatever reason not really my thing. Feels like too much chanting instead of actual music

Decent 60s music but nothing too special

Pixies singer, good stuff

Interesting kind of old fashioned sounding music like easy listening but also modern elements

Seems like well made music but heavy metal just isn’t what I’m feeling now

Different African music that I wouldn’t normally be exposed to

More shitty, generic, boring indie folk. I don’t know why these type of albums are so highly regarded or why this website lists ones like this. It all blends together and is completely unimpactful.

Liked the orchestral rock feel

4.5, need to listen again, may be a 5

3.5, different sounding rock

Fine but really what in the mood for at all

It’s fine, but not really what I feel like listening to at all

Fun and different, ethereal and love the vocals

I know this is a huge album but it just doesn’t do a lot for me. A few good songs and well made, but just not quite my thing

Boring shit. Couldn’t finish it

Interesting type of music, almost spoken word type stuff in parts but hard to rate it too highly, it all has a similar sound after a while

Great vocal jazz, different from what I normally listen to but really liked it

Love the electronic, different sound of this

I know this is a big rock opera that some people love but it doesn’t do much for me. Kind of boring and long

Unique, interesting sound, love the poetic lyrics too

Another different kind of music I wouldn’t normally hear, good afropop/African music

Maybe just not in the mood for this genre but really did not enjoy it

4.5, love the medley and the first few songs but a little slow in the middle

3.5

4.5

3.5, good classic rock

Not even Lana’s best album but still an easy 5 stars, love her voice and the atmosphere of the music

4.5

4.5, love a good riot grrrl album

Boring, unremarkable, maybe just not in the mood for this

The music and instruments are decent but the lyrics are some of the cringiest shit I’ve heard. Like an immature 12 year old boy’s idea of how to be edgy and cool

Great psychedelic 60s music

3.5? Kind of interesting for something different. Gravelly stranger voice but an interesting album.

Great classic country

Maybe just not in the mood for this now but found it boring and songs were way too long

Good electronic music

Fun and different ambient from stuff I usually listen to

3.5

4.5?

2.5

3.5?

Wanted to like it, different and old fashioned but boring, the songs sound the same

A bit odd but kind of liked it for being different

A bit repetitive, like decent overall but why as long as it is

3.5?

4.5

Kind of strange 60s music but I like how it’s different

Kind of strange and different, I love it, interesting mix of genres

Interesting hip hop/electronic mix

3.5

Relisten?

3.5

Love her voice

3.5

Good but kind of sounds the same after a while

Not a fan of that voice but the chill music is kind of nice

Surprisingly good, I thought I tried this band before and wasn’t impressed but I liked this one

Pretty boring shit

3.5

I know this is supposed to be a best album of all time, I guess I’m not musically literate enough to understand why. There are some good songs, but it’s not nowhere near one of my favorite albums. This is the third time I’ve heard the album and I always have this same reaction. I know it was groundbreaking but personally I wasn’t wowed by it

4.5

3.5

Interesting sort of ethereal, different feel. Not even quite sure what genre this is

Some songs are decent but overall a bit repetitive of an album. Do we really need a 2 hour live album?

3.5

One of my favorites, love the connecting music and themes, something about it is just always compelling to me. I can’t tell if it ends on a hopeful note talking about others trying to reach you through the wall, or if it’s pessimistic because it alludes to them giving up and then the album cycles back to the song at the beginning

Interesting industrial music, will have to try more of this genre

3.5? Interesting different kind of genre, like pop metal or something

3.5?

3.5

Seems decent like well made but just not what I’m feeling like right now

Decent but a little repetitive even at just a 34 minute album

3.5

Wow, I found this to be some boring, lame shit. I like this website but I feel like there’s a fair amount of awful chill indie shit on here. I love some indie but this ain’t it. To me all the songs are boring and sound the same, and the guys breathy falsetto voice isn’t my thing at all. Yuck.

3.5

4.4

3.5

3.5?

Different, worth relisten probably

A few good songs but kind of boring and so many sound the same

4.5

Not sure what the big deal is with this album, it’s decent but I think it’s considered a classic, but it didn’t really stick out to me much

Yikes. This is guy was huge a few decades ago? I find his voice whiny and annoying. The famous “cry me a river” song isn’t even very good either

3.5?

Great trip hop. 4.5?

Great riot grrrl album. 4.5?

4.5
