I like some Neil Young, but this album was a bit sleepy for my tastes.

The instrumentals had potential but the vocals were beyond terrible

I would either start to really like this or really hate it after a few listens- just not sure which. But on the first pass it was certainly not terrible.

As 80s as it gets. Worth a listen but probably not a second.

Very Bowie-ish, just not as good

Very Bowie-ish, just not as good

Probably would have liked it if all the songs weren’t 90 seconds or less

A bit too show-tuney for my taste

The whole was much bette than the sum of its parts

Maybe if I had been in the right mood this could have been better, but as it was this was mediocre at best

The nadir of generic 50s music.

I was expecting to like this more than I did. It was generally unremarkable.

Undeniably the best Cure album

Very 80s pop

A solid album all the way through with a couple of hits to lift it above the noise.

A sort of cross between the Beatles and Simon and Garfunkel, but not in a good way.

Not available but also doesn’t sound like something I’d like.

Not their best album, but still enjoyed it

Early Beatles is not good.

Fine but very forgettable. If I heard one of the songs again I would not recognize it.

It’s no Violator, but still a very good album

Not a big Wu-Tang fan, but once every 20 years it’s enjoyable.

Very mellow background music

I like a few songs, but overall not a big fan

A cross between the Cure and Bob Dylan. Very mellow, but not very memorable.

Perfectly fine for what it is- I just don’t really like country

More a loose collection of singles than an album. Either way, not my style.

Very ahead of its time, but still not very good.

Effectively the girl from Ipanema as a 45 minute long song.

Maybe if they just picked the top 10 it would have had a chance.

It has potential but I just can’t get into French rap

A sci-fi movie with no dialogue.

Groove is in the heart and a bunch of songs just like it

The extreme misogyny was bad even in the 90s. As an adult it definitely taints an album I once loved.

I have never liked the Who. This album did nothing to change that.

Coldplay has definitely grown on me over the years

It was good, but as a purely instrumental album it’s missing something

Certainly not my favorite Beastie Boys album, but still good

A nice change of pace for a hot summer day

Fine but completely forgettable.

Decent, but not very memorable. The songs all last about a minute longer than they should.

It seemed like it had potential at the start but it got worse, not better

Mellow hip hop- a good driving album

An obvious 5 if there ever was one

British 70s punk. Better than expected.

One great song, but some very weak songs as well

I’m not seeing the genius of this album

I have never liked the who. This album does nothing to change that.

A few very good songs, but the rest was underwhelming

It was fine, but no songs stood out.

It’s no Back in Black, but still a solid album

Not their best album, but they’re all great.

Started strong, but ended weak

It was fine, but not sure what made it list-worthy

Surprisingly good for a genre I don’t like

I like some Neil Young, but this album was a bit sleepy for my tastes.

Not sure how this made the list. Obvious White Stripes and similar copycat just not nearly as good.

Would have been better with fewer slow songs

Do you like Jazz? Sometimes, and this was a solid entry in the genre.

All his best songs on one album

Sort of a big band version of bob marley? Maybe not for every day, but as a once off it was very good.

The intro was the best song. After that it was just mediocre 00’s fare.

I get why people love it (and it’s definitely his best album), but just not my jam.

Very mellow, but it works if you’re in the right mood for it.

The gold standard for jazz. I just don’t like any jazz enough to give it a five.

Borderline 5.

One of their best albums

Just plain awful from start to finish.

The instrumentals had potential but the vocals were beyond terrible

Feels like the soundtrack to a Bond film. Decent, but nothing to keep me coming back.

It had potential, but was much too slow for me

It was fine, just not very memorable

Meh. It wasn’t terrible, but it definitely didn’t hook me at all.

Very dated.

Not a country fan, but this was kind of good.

A cross between Radiohead and Sting? A few good songs but a few weak ones too.

Probably wouldn’t have liked it if I weren’t already a fan, but it was a fun concept. Just a little too heavy on the Load/Reload albums.

He has a few songs I like, but a whole album is too much

If you like one song you like them all because they all sound the same

Good for what it is; it’s just not my genre of choice

Pretty good, though it probably would have been more impressive in its day before lots of imitators

I was holding out hope but the moment they started signing it was over

It has been a while since I’ve listened to this, but it mostly holds up

A fantastic album from start to finish

Very underwhelming 90 rock. Not bad enough to warrant a 1- just unremarkably bad.

Better than I expected.

Surprisingly enjoyable on the first listen. Not sure how it will hold up over time, but for now I enjoyed it a lot.

I’d really like it if they stopped pushing the Who on me- they’re not good. Also, live albums don’t really belong.

I would either start to really like this or really hate it after a few listens- just not sure which. But on the first pass it was certainly not terrible.

This was just bad.

A bit too much Metallica on this list, but think is one of my favorite albums.

A good album for when you want to feel like a bad ass while mowing the lawn

Trying too hard at something but I don’t know what

Good, but not particularly memorable

This was very enjoyable

Surprised I had never heard this. Overall pretty good.

Chuck D sure has a lot of grievances.

I like Johnny Cash but I don’t think live albums generally belong on the list

Zeppelin. Enough said.

Expecting Red Red Wine but instead got a surprisingly good 2-tone/reggae album

A sleepier version of Sheryl Crow? Definitely a miss for me.
