Album #1 - hip hop, not my style but there creativity, lyrics, talent is huge here. Compelling in parts, not so much in others. Interesting start!

Not as crazy as I expected, fun and energetic album. Ace of Spades the song is classic but the overall album holds it's own.

Two giant hits, rest is very good rock and roll. Needs more listens to really understand if the whole album is top 1001

Perfect end to end

Fun, I still prefer the instruments and beats, overlays and subs over the actual rapping on most songs

Wow, interesting mix of 60's rock songs, some Beatles like, some rolling stones like. I didn't realize the range of idea they had into properly listening to this album.

Ok, some good stuff, not sure why it's in this list

So many classics

Interesting album, could grow on me. Never heard of them before.

Not even the best Radiohead album.

Meh

Ok, a bit to dated in how they approach love songs, some if it is creepy and stalkery now.

Pretty good, some great songs. A bit too long.

Brilliant fun

Better overall than I expected

Sublime

Never heard of this but it is brilliant

This is what I think when I think twangy country

Classic

Six stars

One of my favorite albums. I love the lyrics and the arrangement of the music. The mood and emotion Michael brings out is unique and lovely.

Historical record but not my thing

All-time classic

Unique classic, pure Tom Waits

Seminal

Time of the Season saves a middling album
