Its like Boney-M and Depeche Mode fucked and had an unwanted child that was raised by it's grandparents. Not bad, but unloved.

This is a hot mess.

I was going to give this a 4. It a great album. However, I am going to up that to a 5 as a finger to all of the unfun people who take music so seriously (looking at you Cohen and Dylan fans). Cheesy, yes. But cheese is fucking awesome.

Going to give this three stars. Not for me, but no denying the talent. A couple of gems in there. Overall annoying to me. More runs than a taco bell bathroom.....

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Nostalgic album that has aged so-so. Great start to a great career, but hardly their best effort.

Great classic rock album.

No single song stood out as amazing, but the whole album was enjoyable.

Meh. First two tracks are obviously classics, but after that I would give the album a C-. I mean, do we really think Elton should be singing about Native Americans like he is super familiar? Not offensive to me, but a bit weird.

Not a Dylan fan, but appreciate why he is so valued.

Incredibly unremarkable. Hate all the effects put on voices. Pretty much done because people can't hold their notes in tune. Very untalented.

Not my favorite genre, but I was able to listen to the whole album. So not bad.

Not a huge Sinatra fan, I think he has a completely average voice that is wildly overrated (even when compared to other artists of that time). That being said, the album was pleasant to listen to, and I love the music from this time period.

Not a bad album. Easy to listen to. My biggest problem was that the two best songs were done better by other people. Hey Joe by Hendrix and Hey Mr. Spaceman by........ Jimmy Buffett and Gonzo o.O

The Doors meet punk. Great album.

Sorry, you have to have a good voice and good music to get a good review. Lyrics are great, but this is not a poetry rating. Same for Bob Dylan.

Man, new wave is hit or miss with me. I don't think it has aged well over the years, but there was nothing bad in this album. Just not my cup of tea.

Nice voice. Relaxing music.

I like metal, but this style of metal is ridiculous. It is overly repetitive and the lead vocals are absurd. No one needs to hear this album before they die. The fact they haven't broken 1,000,000 plays on most of their stuff says it all. No one likes this crap.

Not my wheelhouse. Funny lyrics, but not enough music. Reminds me of Zappa a teensy bit, but without the musical genius. 3 for the words tho.

Let's face it. Disco sucks. Hello Abba and BeeGees... This album is only saved by a healthy amount of funk influence. If you can ignore the screams and pleas of kids being raped in this monster's bedroom, I guess this album is ok. Would have rather listened to Thriller or Bad. Glad none of the fractions of pennies that Spotify is paying the owner of the music is actually going to this horrible human.

meh.

Boring and repetitive. Way too brooding and moody. That being said, it was ok and wasn't overly annoying.

Kind of dumb. Annoying.

Tough. I get why people won't listen to this. He has said some pretty hateful things about Jewish people. However, he also has some serious mental health issues as a root cause. I mean, he also said the earth was flat. Not saying this to excuse, but to put in perspective. Keeping that in mind, I chose to listen to this. While I don't think he is as talented as others, this was a very good album.

I'm sorry. This is just dumb. Anyone pretending to enjoy this is a pretentious gimp.

I think "A Thousand Suns" is their best, but this is a very solid album. Linkin Park to me are one of the only memorable artists to come out from this time period of rock.

Reminds me of some of Beck's work, but not as unique or memorable. It was OK. Starting to think this list should be "1001 forgettable and mediocre albums no one will remember".

Vanilla ice cream is good, I guess. Another album that is fine, but literally like "no one listens to this and gives a fuck".

Its like Boney-M and Depeche Mode fucked and had an unwanted child that was raised by it's grandparents. Not bad, but unloved.

So this list is confusing. This isn't even close to being KoL's best record. It was neat to hear their beginnings, but they develop so much in both voice and music. This album was not bad. But not an album I had to hear before I died.

Ummm. It didn't suck. Yup. That about it. Just good enough not to suck. Not one memorable track. Nothing I would add to my favorites.

It's fine. Sounds like every other New Wave album.

Bit of a snoozefest. Wasn't bad, but nothing stood out. I would listen to it again while working. I think it is best suited as background music.

not my thing

I love Beck, but this is not my favorite by him. Solid, but a bit boring and pretty sad.

I love Phil Lynott. This album was just really good rock.

This is a hot mess.

I hate Rush. Musically they are great. However, Geddy Lee has about the worst voice I have ever heard. It absolutely ruins the music for me. Nails on a chalkboard bad.

Surprisingly good, but faded late in the album.

Sorry, this album sucked.

more fun than i remembered

Pleasant.

I just found some great work music. Very relaxing.

Weird. I went in with super high expectations. The first half of this album blows. Second half is super strong.

Her voice got annoying at times. Love the horn/sax section.

I like punk, but this got pretty weak towards the end. Maybe I Just wasn't in the mood. Still pretty good though.

Completely fine and completely unremarkable.

I feel like I would have enjoyed this way more if marijuana was involved during listening.

I understand that her lyrics and message are very powerful. The first two songs were decent. However the music and her voice were problematic. The songs were sloppy and nor well put together. Her voice is great at times, but out of tune on runs and other moments. Not great.

Whole album is great.

It wasn't annoying? 2.5/5

They decided to be the Beatles after the Beatles. That's cool, I guess.

There were one or two songs that were good, but honestly this album's rating seems a bit overblown.

Dumb. Nonsense. Not pleasant to listen to at all.

Not a huge blues fan, but god damn, what a good singer and musician. Loved the entire album.

Like two of the first three songs, then the album completely petered out to ridiculousness.

nice background for work. Highly repetitive if you are paying attention.

No notable songs at all. Wasn't horrible, but another solid "Meh" from this list.

Another Beatles clone/revision. It seems like 1 out of 25 albums on this are actually "must hear before you die". This is not one of them.

another vanilla ice cream indy album.

Sorry. Pretentious and annoying.

Um. Another one that didn't suck, but was completely forgettable. Giving them a 2. I think they were middle of the road, but I am just pissed they are on this list, so it got lowered to a 2.

I feel like if you put all of the Taking Heads good songs on one album, you would have an album that really kicks ass. As it is, there are really only 1-3 great songs on each album.

Overplayed, but there is no denying how good this album is. Not a huge fan, but there are some really good tunes on here.

Look at my extensive knowledge of music. This is a must listen! - said no one ever

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Pretty good, but pretty repetitive.

Good 80's pop.

I just don't get any appeal.

Willie is great.

this is why i joined this list. badass.

Wasn't familiar with this, but I really liked it.

He sucks.

The screeching. My eardrums hurt. Music was ok.

It was ok. Felt like it was from the early 90's rather than the 2000's...and not in a good way.

I like this more than a 3, but less than a 4.

Made an entire genre of music center stage. Sound of a generation.

One of the few albums that was a nice surprise from this list.

not my thing.

Lou Reed is like Dylan. poor singer, good song writer. Do not enjoy listening to him sing.

Irritating.

2.5 - tough to rate. I didn't like it after one song. Her voice grates on my nerves, but I see how people love her.

Pretty terrible. Hope this was meant to be satirical and not real music.

For those giving this album bad reviews because or recording quality....get over yourselves. The dude's voice is amazing. This makes me want to sit by a pool on a hot summer day, friends near, with drinks in hand. Love it.

duh.

I was going to give this a 4. It a great album. However, I am going to up that to a 5 as a finger to all of the unfun people who take music so seriously (looking at you Cohen and Dylan fans). Cheesy, yes. But cheese is fucking awesome.

So Duran Duran stole their sound, but made it better. Got it.

Something about his voice annoys me. It is piercing in a way that make me irrationally angry.

Gonna admit it. After listening to two other albums of his on this list, I gave him an auto 1.

I mean, it's fine. They are also called Oasis. If these Brit pop bands all sound the same, are they really "must listen"

I love the dead, but this is excessive...even for them. Self indulgent repetitive solos that go literally nowhere. You have to be high to enjoy this. Wish I smoked before listening.

Something about his voice/style sets me on edge. Couldn't wait for it to be over.

sorry. repetitive crap. one song is fine, but a whole album is just tedious AF.

probably a 3.5, but not a 4. Fine for backgrounds, but nothing that great.

He gets one star. And only because the backing music can be good. His voice is fucking gross. It is so gad damn wet sounding. Get the mic out of your mouth and swallow some spit before singing.

Steely Dan is just way to jazzy for me. It's so sleazy 70's, smoky club style music.

L E G E N D

Um, not a great voice. Music was fine, but not very inspired. A bit boring tbh.

Makes me sad to think about where this band ended up later in their musical career. This album has some great rock songs.

Tough one for me. A couple great hits, a couple songs I had never heard, but really liked. A couple songs were just terrible.

fine but forgettable. Got better after the first song or two.

Helped launch a genre. Great album.

This is dumb.

horrible and annoying. 1 star for easy listening strumming.

Eyeroll. I like metal, but this sounds like it was recorded in their mom's basement. Also the whole "I'm a badass satanist" is cringey.

Trumpet player here. This is the type of jazz I hate. Formless, trilling nonsense. It's not hard to make those noises. Music for super pretentious people to ne able to tell others "you just don't get it". I couldn't make it through Disc 1.

Going to give this three stars. Not for me, but no denying the talent. A couple of gems in there. Overall annoying to me. More runs than a taco bell bathroom.....

Another "who gives a shit" album by Radiohead. I can't believe they get this much attention on this list.

Maybe someday I won't be such a musical plebeian that I can actually enjoy jazz more. Today is not that day.

Jazz is not my thing, but this was super pleasant.

Pleasant enough. Some of it reminded me of Beck, but not as original or as talented.

It was fine. It was punk, but not great punk.

Sinatra is the definition of mediocrity.

Proof that the ability to play an instrument doesn't mean you should sing and write music as well. 2 stars for the harp, but I really want to give it one.

two great songs, lots of mediocre....

shrug.

Courageous. Raw. Wow. Not really. This sucked. She sucks at singing. She sucks at pronouncing. The only thing spot on was the title of the album. Melodramatic BS. The only people that enjoy this shit are overly fragile infants who live in self pity.

trash

Almost a 3. The whole screaming into the mic and not singing any notes at all get really tedious. Really detracts from some good music.

Not much stood out, but it was catchy enough that I found myself really enjoying it.

I enjoyed that way more than I should.

About 6 songs too long, but plenty of great songs.

I found this to be super whiney and lacking structure. Not my thing.

it's fine. nothing fancy, but easy to enjoy.

Good punk album. If only they could actually play their instruments.

Enter all the fucking jazz fans telling you how creative and smart this music is. It's not. It's this isn't enjoyable. Every track was tedious randomness.

I married my underage cousin. I really related to this music.

so repetitive. Great bass lines tho....

Liked this a lot. Reminded me a bit of Beck at times.

So weird. Pleasant enough, but much is unremarkable/good background music.

Mediocre, but pleasant enough. Unfortunately has a cheesy 80's vibe to the instruments/quality.

I get some of the hate, but it's meant to be funny and cheesy. Great album.

I mean, I didn't hate it, but nothing in here makes me want to listen to it again. The singing is irritating at times.

2-3 decent songs.

cheesy, shitty, 80's alt rock.

Dude's voice reminds me of the Violent Femmes. I enjoyed this.

Lyrics are weird, like early Beck, Voice is more like Cake. Music is uninteresting and basic, which make it much less appealing then the aforementioned Artists.

Um, no. Thankfully there was only one song on spotify. I swear this guy was laughing that people actually listened to this shit. He was probably trying to figure out how stupid could he make this music before pretentious snobs stopped talking about what a genius he was.

this was weird, but I kind of enjoyed it.

This is diarrhea water. There is no getting clean water from this mess. What a load of shit.

The sounds of a band struggling to stay relevant and in doing so, forgot who they were. With the exception of Feel Flows, this was forgettable and not great.
