The music was a three, but the lyrics were a zero, so I gave it a solid one.

So fucking beautiful. 🖤

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

All Ratings (679)

Classic. I love his vibe, his voice, his guitar work, his life's work.

Best album yet. One of my favorites.

3.5

Absolutely loved these guys! Kind of a cross between Santana, Island music/reggae and rap!

Really enjoyed this band. I'd give it a 4.5.

3.5 stars. But I do appreciate the song that started out something like I finally met you, now let's never see each other again. Kudos on that one.

Even though I had heard a few Ray Charles songs, I was absolutely blown away by this album! So thankful I got to experience it!

Korn amuses me, but I couldn't listen to it long-term.

Excellent!

X1000 Love the percussion especially, but Stevie Nicks voice can't be beat!

I forgot how much I loved the song, The Stranger. Beautiful piano work.

Solid 3.5. I honestly was kind of meh about Alice Cooper based on the few songs I'd heard on the radio. This actually impressed me quite a bit. Still not a super fan, but I'm glad it was in the rotation.

This made me feel some sort of way. Very depressing, but also nostalgic. Weird feeling.

Technically, I probably should love this album and artist, but I just don't.

The music was probably a three or four, but the screaming was awful. There are some really good musicians who can scream and make it sound good. These are not one of them.

Never, ever heard this before. Absolutely spectacular! Definitely going into my "best of music" category!

I feel like this is a band that I'd be super into if I felt like getting super into a new band. Lol

I really liked the Indian music and Hindi themes, but I did not enjoy the singing.

This was made when really good albums were made. You don't get ones like this much anymore. It's all crap from TikTok.

3.5

My favorite Beatles album, and just a fantastic album all around. Number 9 Number 9 Number 9

I think this would be great background music, but I don't think I could really get into it hardcore.

Meh. Still just not a fan of Radiohead.

Really liked this album.

This was kind of like if the Chipmunks did psychedelic hippie music. But I did find it very catchy and would definitely listen again!

Classic. Remember that one time... 😂

Classic progressive rock. I love the stories these albums told.

I love a couple of his songs, but this one just did not land for me.

Very sexy. He might be talking about garbage collection, idk. But it's beautiful.

Ahh, nostalgia 💙

Beautiful, but very tragic.

11 stars out of 5. One of the greats.

Kind of boring in my honest opinion.

Hard to get too excited about a pedophile.

Lovely voice. Never heard of this person before, but this was solid.

Solid 3.5. catchy and quirky and fun.

Every single song son of the same to me. Maybe I'm just old. Lol

I feel like they need to pick a lane. Either be a punk band, or be a rap band. Don't be both.

This literally sounded like the same song over and over with the same beat over and over.

Still listen to this album on a regular basis 40 years later. Fantastic!

Lasted 13 seconds before I wanted to start punching kittens. No bueno.

I can see how this would be fun at a dance party, but it's super repetitive and not my style.

I forgot how funny, and varied, and memory inducing album this was.

Not sure I'd really heard any of Nick cave before, but I really like this album. A solid 3.7. I will round up to four, because I feel generous today. Lol

This was the most surprising and delightful album thus far! Totally excited about this pic, as I had never heard of them or about them.

Legend

So fucking beautiful. 🖤

I'll bet this one is going to be a banger. 🤣

Even though this is not my style of music, I can totally appreciate her voice. Absolutely stunning vocals.

I really like this album. It reminded me a lot of arrested development, although obviously they came later.

There's a couple of good songs, but mostly it just all sounds the same.

Classic, but I realize now is an adult that every single song is kind of sad.

It started off with a song that just kept saying the f word over and over so I kind of lost interest pretty quick. However it wasn't terrible.

Classic. I love this album so much!

Thanks, I hated it.

Led Zeppelin surely is a terrific band, however, they did steal a lot of their music. So for that I docked him a point. Should have docked them too, but they're hella good musicians.

The music was a three, but the lyrics were a zero, so I gave it a solid one.

Way better than I thought it was going to be. I was pretty impressed.

If I could read this a zero I would.

Still don't really understand all the hoop and holler over this band. They're okay, I guess.

I cringed when I first learned this was my album, but I was very pleasantly surprised. I only knew a couple of their songs in the past, but I was really pleased with the variety of their music.

0.0

Really like this a lot!

Solid 3.5. loved the music, but I just can't get into calling women bitches.

Originally, I was going to write this a three. But then I forgot how hilarious some of these songs are. And technically, really good.

Classic.

I love the hippie dippiness of this and the lyrics and such, but the high treble was a bit much for my ears.

There's no doubt that she has a great voice, but I really just cannot stand her music. LOL

I did not think I would enjoy this as much as I did. Still not probably my type of music, but I was amused by several songs.

I really like her voice, but it was a little too "teenager issues" for me.

I really love the lyrics and the stories, but the music is not necessarily my style. Solid 3.5.

Beautiful and relaxing.

I really should love Janis Joplin, but I don't. I love her voice, I love her social justice issues and I love her lyrics. But I just don't like her and I don't know why. Sorry, Janice.

It was fantastic back in 1993, and it's still fantastic now.

Some of it was catchy, but it was very repetitive. Not my style.

I still remember hearing about muddy Waters when I was a young girl from the hairdresser. Been a fan ever since!

Beautiful.

I love REM, but this one just didn't hit for me.

10/5 probably one of my top three albums of all time. Excellent!

The music is pretty good, but I can't stand the guy's voice.

I will never get tired of hearing his music.

She sounded like Basha. Made me very nostalgic.

Meh, it was fine. Just not my thing.

I wasn't really a Nirvana fan in the 90s, but this was way better than I thought it was going to be.

Really enjoyed this French Riviera in the 1950s vibe!

The music and the rap was okay, but the misogyny was terrible.

The first listen, I was was a little disturbed by the lyrics. So I read about the album and the history, and then listened again. Musically, I love it. I still feel that the lyrics are a little disturbing, but I appreciate it more after learning about it.

Very solid album, though not necessarily my musical preference. I could definitely see the appeal.

Even if this album was just the song Thriller, it still would be fantastic.

I liked this more than I thought I would.

This one didn't land for me like other Reed albums.

Classic.

There was a couple songs I like, but most of it just seemed pretty dull to me.

Solid 3.5. I like the younger Willie. Not sure if I had heard much of his older stuff.

I really cannot stand Kate's voice. I know she's very creative, but I just can't do it. So I did not listen.

There were a few songs I really loved, but most of it was not my style.

Classic!

When this came out, we had not heard anything like it. Absolutely stunning!

She's not really my style of music, but she does have a very lovely voice.

This is probably not my cup of tea normally, but it was very interesting and I ended up listening to it twice and really appreciating it.

I'm not a huge fan of Sonic Youth in general, but I really liked this album.

Solid 3.5. I do really like the Byrds, but this one didn't hit like some of their other albums.

I don't need to hear the word "pussy" 372 times. Couldn't even finish it after that song.

20 years ago, I would have thought this was awesome. But I think I'm in a quieter time in my life where this just isounds very noisy.

One of my favorites!

10/10 I remember hearing Prince for the first time on the radio when I was in the car with my friend kim. We were 11 years old. I swore that day I would follow that man till the ends of the earth.

Loved hearing Sly right after Prince, my album yesterday. I know Prince cited Sly and the Family Stone as a big influence on him. It was awesome to hear the echoes of each other.

0/5 I didn't listen. I don't listen to predators.

There is no doubt that Adele has a terrific voice and one of the great ones of the ages. However, I hate her content. I wish she would venture into blues or even jazz. I feel like her voice is much more suited to that type of music. I get that the money making is the pop songs, but they're all terrible. Solid 3.5. the voice is a five of course, but the content is a two.

0/5. Why is this even considered music.

Honestly, all these songs sounded the same to me.

Appropriate album for January 2026. Ugh.

A band I was not familiar with. I really like this album.

This reminded me of French '50s music with a pink panther twist. Highly enjoyable.

I really enjoyed this. Lots of different music and styles. This is what an album should be on this list.

Classic

This was more like a zero out of five. But I have to rake it somehow. Just stop screaming already.

Solid 3.5. I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would.

This album was not available on spotify, so I listened to a critique of it and heard clips. Definitely not my style of music, but kudos for the enchanting lyrics and dreamlike music.

Maybe it's just my mood lately, but I'm over all the misogyny in this music. Yes, the Stones are phenomenal, but the misogyny is a zero.

Very interesting album and I was not familiar with them before.

If I heard heard this album back in the '80s, I'm sure I would have given it a five. But I'm a little older now. It was reminiscent of the lot of stuff that I listen to when I was a kid though.

Another late '80s early 90s sounding album but I'm sure I would have loved back in the day. I know I have heard of this group, and I've probably heard a song here or there, but had never really explored them before.

The music's not bad, but for lyrics I give it a zero. I really do not appreciate the misogyny in this kind of music.

One of the most creative creatures in many lifetimes.

Adele undoubtedly has one of the best voices in the last 50 years. However, she sings shitty pop songs. Her voice is definitely a five, but her content is a one. I wish she would move to jazz or blues. I think her voice is very much suited for that.

I was not aware of this band before, but they were pretty interesting. Probably not something I'd listen to a lot, but I'm glad it exists.

Not really my type of music, but very enjoyable.

I love Dylan's music and I love Dylan's message, but I really hate his voice.

Solid 2.5. not something I would probably listen to again, but it was kind of fun.

Very interesting. I kind of liked it, but I also thought it was kind of odd coming from them.

Never really listened to Joy Division when they came out, but I really enjoyed this album a lot!

This one just didn't grab me as much as other Talking Head's albums.

So many great Queen albums, but this was just kind of okay.

Probably the best trap music I've ever heard, but I still don't like to trap music. LOL

I honestly thought I was going to hate this, because I think I was thinking of another band. But this was not bad at all.
