I underestimated how good their first album was. I was ready to give it a 4 but song after song is just great.

Radiohead
3/5
This is honestly about the time I don’t care as much but Radiohead. The vocals are all incomprehensible moaning. The music is trying so hard to be Unique with weird time signatures. They are obviously good musicians but they start to lack any interesting melodies.
Primal Scream
3/5
This album started out really strong then quickly fell off for me. If it was not for the first song I’d probably give this a 2.
The Verve
2/5
Starts out strong with their big hit then the rest of the songs are meh to okay.
OutKast
4/5
Genesis
3/5
Talented band but gets a little too proggy for me.
The Fall
3/5
I had trouble paying attention to this album but the moments I did focus in I liked it. I just couldn’t latch onto it for what ever reason.
John Lennon
4/5
Solid album from John Lennon with minimal Ono.
Slipknot
2/5
A couple of good songs but overall just not my style of metal.
Hole
4/5
Good album with some great songs. It did fall off about half way through for me.
CHVRCHES
2/5
Really just not my style and they gave me a weird Christian vibe. I could see how people may like it though.
Slipknot
3/5
Still not entirely my style of metal but I enjoyed this a bit more than some of their later albums. I can see why people liked this.
3/5
A decent album that I feel like could be 4 stars if I was in the right mood. Definitely some great songs on it.
The Who

I don’t know why but I really don’t care for the Who. Maybe I’m just seeing them from too modern of a perspective but they sound like the most vanilla version of British rock to me.
Wild Beasts
2/5
I can’t say I really liked it disliked this album. I listened to it yesterday and nothing really stuck with me.
The Flaming Lips
3/5
Started out liking it but then kind of lost interest part way. Some good songs in it though.
Nightmares On Wax
2/5
I really could not get into this. It’s an instrumental album and it feels like each song is only 4 bars long repeating for 3-5 minutes.
Justice
5/5
A fantastic album, maybe made better because the album before this was an instrumental album that was boring. While this isn’t entirely instrumental it’s not your typical rock or pop album either.
William Orbit
2/5
Another instrumental album that I just couldn’t connect with
Pink Floyd
2/5
I believe this is before David Gilmore joins and it really sounds like a different band. I do not like this era of 60’s British bands. Everyone is trying to be whimsical and sing about Alice in Wonderland and other trippy bullshit.
The 13th Floor Elevators
2/5
Another 60’s psychedelic mess, really not into this stuff.
The Allman Brothers Band
2/5
This is a case of good musicians but music that just didn’t interest me.
Miles Davis
3/5
Good album but I was not able to give it a fair listen yesterday. Obvious Miles Davis is extremely talented.
Sabu
2/5
Really just not into this one.
Penguin Cafe Orchestra
3/5
Surprisingly calming and enjoyable.
The Adverts
3/5
Not terrible, not great, it’s there.
The Coral
4/5
I was surprised by this album honestly.
Bruce Springsteen
5/5
It’s Born in the USA, of course it’s 5 stars.
The Stooges
4/5
Really good punk…post punk…idk really good album.
Elliott Smith
2/5
I’ve heard of Elliot Smith but Jenner actually heard his music. I was not overly impressed.
Rod Stewart
2/5
It was fine, just not for me.
Everything But The Girl
2/5
Decent sounding album but I was not able to enjoy it much.
Jane's Addiction
4/5
I don’t normally care for this band but I found this album to be pretty refreshing.
Bruce Springsteen
4/5
If I could give 4 1/2 I would. It’s a great album but sometimes a little too mellow and folksy for me.
Soft Machine
2/5
Really didn’t care for this. 5 songs all 20 minutes a piece.
The Dictators
3/5
A pretty cool punk album with some interesting covers.
B.B. King
4/5
Great live album. It’s B.B. King I don’t know what else to say. Surprisingly short if this was the length of his actual concerts.
Tina Turner
4/5
I was not expecting to like this album as much as I did. It was genuinely good.
John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers
3/5
I was thinking I wouldn’t like it as a lot of 60’s blues rock can be boring. This was pretty decent.
50 Cent
4/5
For some reason I didn’t like this growing up but looking at it now I can see why he was so big.
Motörhead
3/5
A decent live album. I am not that into motorhead though.
Waylon Jennings
3/5
A good old school country album. I like this style but was not overly drawn to any songs on here. Still not a bad listen at all.
Jeff Buckley
3/5
I know this is a classic for many and I really like parts of it. I can’t help but lose interest in so many songs on here.
Dire Straits
3/5
This album starts off really well with 3-4 amazing songs. Then it just falls off hard for me and becomes unremarkable. I’d give it 3.5 if possible.
Kate Bush
2/5
Not a bad album it’s just nothing really stood out for me.
Queens of the Stone Age
5/5
I underestimated how good their first album was. I was ready to give it a 4 but song after song is just great.
Marilyn Manson
5/5
This is a fantastic album, it has a vibe that you don’t hear much. Especially from the albums typically suggested on this list.
Sigur Rós
4/5
A surprisingly great album. It’s a mix of atmospheric and rhythm that I really enjoyed.
Joy Division
3/5
I enjoy Joy Division in general but most of this album was just okay for me.
Neil Young
3/5
I think almost every Neil Young album from this has been 5 stars. This isn’t a bad album at all but it tends to be slightly too mellow for me.
Suzanne Vega
2/5
A decent album but it didn’t really connect with me.
Violent Femmes
4/5
This is a really great album. This band sounds so ahead of their time.
Bob Dylan
3/5
I’m not always a fan of Bob Dylan or this era of Folk music. This was an okay album.
Sleater-Kinney
3/5
Decent album, I think I didn’t give this one a fair listen and may need to go back.
Bob Marley & The Wailers
2/5
Bob Marley is really hit and miss for me and this missed.
Public Image Ltd.
3/5
Honestly I usually kind of like what I hear if public image. This was a decent album.
Sonic Youth
3/5
Solid alternative album. Some people try and be cool and hate Sonic Youth but I’ve yet to hear anything worth the hate.
Kelela
2/5
This album had a very generic sound that seems to be found in this genre. Just not for me.
Supergrass
3/5
This was a very generic 90’s alt album. It reminds me of the band Jellyfish but not as good.
Pink Floyd
5/5
This album is a masterpiece to me. It’s the best concept album ever made and my favorite Pink Floyd album. I’d give it 6 if I could.
If you are into this genre it’s probably a good album. I’m just so tired of this kind of rock that it does nothing for me.
Dexys Midnight Runners
3/5
Not a bad album at all. I always forget this is the “come on Irene” band.
Big Brother & The Holding Company
2/5
I really don’t care for this era a lot. It’s very “jam band” esq. Jannis Joplin kind of sounds like ass to be.
Destiny's Child
3/5
This album starts off really well then it’s kind of just a bunch of middle of the road songs. I can see why people like it but after the first 3-4 songs it’s all forgettable to me.
Elvis Presley
3/5
I was hoping to like this more. It’s not bad by any means but most of it didn’t grab my attention.
LL Cool J
2/5
Album was alright, I really only liked and remembered the title song. Everything else was just kind of there for me.
John Lennon
5/5
People always argue over John vs Paul and I find myself going back and forth. I used to prefer John much more, and lately found myself going towards Paul. However after listening to this again I can’t deny that it’s an amazing album.
ZZ Top
3/5
This album was fine, most of it didn’t make much of an impact on me. Still not a bad album to listen to.
Hawkwind
2/5
I did 👏 not 👏 like 👏 this 👏 If I could give it 1.5 I would but I don’t think this really deserves a 1.
Neu!
3/5
A strange album that seemed to change its mind at times on exactly what it was. I didn’t dislike it but nothing grabbed me enough to give it a higher score.
Bob Dylan
3/5
This was a good album even if it’s not always what I’m searching for. I can see why some people really enjoy it.
Beatles
4/5
It’s not the Beatles best but it’s still the Beatles. It’s very of its time and I kind of wonder if they thought they had too many songs about “love” when making it. It might not be so different from pop songs now but every song seems to talk about love.
Bonnie Raitt
3/5
A good late 80’s early 90’s country esq album.
Emmylou Harris
3/5
A good country album with a nice Beatles cover.
The The
3/5
One really great song and the rest are fine.
Pet Shop Boys
2/5
I like the pet shop boys well enough this one was kind of hard for me at times and nothing really grabbed me.
4/5
This is a good live album. I’m sure Dylan fans like it as it seems to have a lot of the hits in his prime. Sometimes he almost sounds like someone trying to sound like Bob Dylan.
System Of A Down
4/5
This album brought me back to my highschool days and now my hip hurts. I’m knocking a star off for that.
The Police
2/5
“Every breath you take” is great but the rest just don’t hit for me.
Billy Bragg
3/5
Started off feeling bland but by the end there were a few songs I liked.
New York Dolls
4/5
A good punk album. Maybe it’s post punk? I can’t remember these dumb genres. It’s sounds pretty punk rock and has good songs.
Animal Collective
2/5
I really couldn’t get into this album. It felt like too much was going on most of the time.
Steve Earle
3/5
A pretty run of the mill country album to me. It was not bad just not always my genre.
King Crimson
2/5
The production is great and you can tell they are talented, but some of these songs are too long for me. There is never any kind of hook to be found either.
