my first bjรถrk outside of her iconic 90s trilogy of albums. stunning.
this album is like a best friend to me
What a history I have with Coldplayโฆ Years later and I still remember the lyrics. Fitting first album in my 1001 album journey.
Funny that this was my album for today since Iโve been digging into Blondieโs discography lately. Iโve listened to Parallel Lines a few times, and while it gets better each time, I wish I liked some of the songs more. On the whole, I do enjoy listening to it, though I personally prefer their debut. I love Picture This and Hanging On The Telephone a lottt. Sunday Girl and Pretty Baby are also favorites. Giving it a 4, but 3.5/5 is more accurate to how I feel.
Classic. What else is there to say?
I had heard a few of Nick Drakeโs songs previously and really liked them, but after listening to Pink Moon in full, I think his music works better for me if I hear an individual song in the wild or on a playlist. Sorry if thatโs sacrilegiousโฆ itโs just not a favorite genre of mine, but certainly one I can appreciate on the surface.
I can finally say Iโve listened to OK Computer. Nice ๐ 4.5/5
I like it in the sense that itโs nice to have on in background but not really something Iโd actively listen to.
wow what a surprise! i had no idea this album was on the list. TLSP is required listening for any Arctic Monkeys fan in my opinion. itโs clear that this group gave Alex permission to try new things, and he was able to bring that into AM (see the orchestration on The Car). while i think this album has some of their best songs, i prefer their 2016 follow-up.
my god the reviews for this album on here are abysmalโฆ yโall have obviously never drank scotch whiskey all night long and died behind the wheel ๐
the only song that really caught my attention was the closer, Speedway. the rest just blended together.
for me, folk is one of those genres thatโs nice to have on, but not something I reach for nor a genre that particularly moves meโฆ hopefully Iโll find an album in this journey that changes that. I unfortunately donโt think itโs this one.
[rating is of the 1956 version]
sounds like a parody of itself
iโm usually listening to paul via the jam or style council so itโs nice to hear his voice in a different setting. he sounds so soulful on this project, no doubt thanks to the blues influence found on this album. iโll definitely check out more of his solo stuff. 3.5/5
i was verrrry excited to see this one today. an absolute classic by one of my favorite bands.
3.5 while i do appreciate this album stylistically, i wish i connected to it more. maybe with more listens i will, but i donโt see my self coming back to it all that often
3.5 good vibes all around
When I first got into Pink Floyd, I think (?) I listened to this or at least I listened to the popular songs. I really love Lucifer Sam, and Astronomy Domine is pretty goodโฆ in fact, the first few songs are quite nice, but Iโm indifferent to the rest of the album. The best for the band was definitely to come. LOVE the album artwork though. One of my favorite of their many iconic covers.
probably goes hard at the club
probably would have rated this a 3 if i didnโt have the misfortune of hearing steven tyler sing about his big ten inch โrecordโ also, funny that i should get this album today since i watched the new run dmc docuseries last night. Walk This Way doesnโt sound them same without them.
either you get it or you donโt
3.5 iโve never liked this one as much as other people seem toโฆ but boy itโs got some classics!
super happy to finally have gotten a hip hop album! i actually listened to this in full for the first time last month (though i had listened to parts of it before). a bit of a grower for me, i liked it more today than i did then. overall, really great beats and timeless production. Lifeโs a Bitch is my fave song :)
3.5 enjoyed it! definitely more r&b than i was expecting, but missy and timbaland make a great duo
yeah this is good shit
brandon flowers doesnโt sing, he YELLS. really love the first five songs. the rest is okay. i think this would have changed me brain chemistry had i heard it in high school. 3.5
honestly banger after banger
Reconciling my feelings on Kanye has been difficult lately considering how much I love his first six albums. I didnโt listen to MBDTF today, but Iโve listened enough over the years to know where I stand. Not my favorite of his, but undeniably a powerhouse album. I still remember feeling really moved by his 2010 VMA performance of Runaway despite only being 13 at the time. Lost In The World, Monster, Gorgeous, Devil In A New Dress, All Of The Lightsโฆ so many classics.
awesome
not his best but still a great Costello record. the first six songs in particular are stand outs for me, and Almost Blue is one of my favorite songs of his.
my first bjรถrk outside of her iconic 90s trilogy of albums. stunning.
super easy listen, got better each time 4.5
pretty average but neil finn has a lovely voice
loved it
one of the greatest voices of all time
bohemian rhapsody and youโre my best friend are certified classics. i also really loved death on two legs (it rips) and love of my life. everything else was okay, didnโt love it but didnโt dislike it either.
i actually listened to this for the first time a few weeks ago after getting Missyโs debut Supa Dupa Fly. very fun to listen to.
go to any dying American mall and this is what will be playing in Express
music to dance to, not listen to 2.5
iโm a dan fan forever
not bad but i donโt suspect iโll listen to this album or even think about it again
iโm more of a mid-to-late period beatles gal myself, but this probably my favorite early beatles album. 3.5
incredibly moving. so sad that he was taken so early, he clearly had a great gift. 4.5
better than i was expecting! 3.5
woohoo!!! my favorite stevie record <3 it also has my favorite stevie song, Maybe Your Baby. just classic all around.
excited to listen to more of their discography
better than i expected, but i probably wonโt come back to it that often 3.5
despite being often discussed as one of their worst, iโve always had a soft spot for With The Beatles. itโs got a few of my favorite early originals like Hold Me Tight, Donโt Bother Me, and It Wonโt Be Long while also having some of their better covers like All Iโve Got To Do and Please Mr. Postman. sure itโs got some stinkers but nothing too bad imo. overall a fun listen for me. 3.5
wish it were a tad bit shorter but still an enjoyable listen 3.5
this has been on my โto listenโ list for quite some time - glad i finally got around to it! Kick In The Eye was the only song i was familiar with beforehand, but the rest of the album similarly has great bass and fun post-punk energy. definitely need to dig more into their discography.
i always have a tough time picking a favorite Bowie record, but this is definitely in the running. so great all the way through. the Stones cover is clearly the weakest song, but i donโt think itโs too bad. everything else is fantastic, especially Drive-In Saturday which is one of my absolute favorite songs of his.
some really cool songs on this thing 3.5
for a short album, this sure did feel long. itโs definitely got some classic songs though.
i can appreciate this on the surface but itโs not for me
not my thing but i didnโt dislike it either
the first (and only) solo beatles album i heard when i was first getting into the group around 11 years ago. now that iโve heard more of their offerings outside of the group, i donโt rate this one as highly, but man itโs got some great songs. Let Me Roll It is fantastic.
iโve heard such good things about this album for so long that i automatically thought i was going to really dig it. and while i thought it was pretty good, i didnโt connect with it the way i thought i would. very unexpectedly acoustic? i was surprised by that but i guess thatโs my fault lol. actually reminded me a lot of tame impala. certainly ahead of itโs time. i preferred when the album leaned more into the electronic rock stuff, like part 2 of the title track. super cool instrumental. honestly iโm not sure about my ratingโฆ feeling more of a 3.5
Everything punk should be: raucous, energetic, and presented with a message. It has the added bonus of killer saxophone and a fearless front-woman in Poly Styrene. So glad I finally listened to this one. 4.5
cool!
producer pharrell > frontman pharrell
didnโt think i was going to like this at all, but color me surprised!
closer to a 3.5 for me, but I think with more listens, Iโll warm up to this one
classic! still very lyrically relevant. also one of the hardest album covers ever. 4.5
really liked it! definitely need to listen to Back To Black now.
this fucks!!!!! 4.5
Oasis but less catchy 3.5
Iโm probably biased because Arctic Monkeys are in my top 3 favorite bands ever, but I think this is very easily one of the best debuts of the 2000s.
sorry :(
top 3 kanye album for me 4.5
most of the songs sounded a little same-y, but it was an enjoyable listen nonetheless 3.5
not even ten years old, and itโs already a classic.
i really like Method Man in the context of Wu-Tang, but this didnโt really do it for me. 2.5
one of those rare times i wish an album was longer. not because i just loved it so much that i needed more, but because it felt like there wasnโt enough here. that being said, what is here i enjoyed. BB King is mostly known for this guitar work, but i donโt think i realized what a great voice he had. and i loved the audienceโs energy. i had no idea the girlies went crazy for BBโฆ. good for him! 3.5
iโve been meaning to listen to this for a while now after i heard Show Girl a few years ago. because of that, i was expecting to like this more... while i did enjoy it on a basic level and would listen again, it can be pretty dull lol 3.5
bad but not even in a fun way. deserves the rating for the title alone.
i was looking forward to this because i already knew about the concept, but it just fell flat for me.
better than i was expecting
i didnโt think i was familiar with this band/album at all until Hard To Handle came on. enjoyed this one!
XTC is one of my favorite bands, so iโve listened to this one before, but i liked the album a lot more on this listen. really wish it was on streaming, but happy to own it on CD. 3.5
long but pretty awesome ngl
probably really good if youโre into folk
try not to say โthey sang this on gleeโ challenge failed
makes a really good case against british rap
iโm not a country gal (though i did grow up in the south), but this was an enjoyable listen
i have beastie fever, and baby itโs incurable!!!!!!!
solid!
meh
enjoyed it
better than i remember
i just donโt care
I really wasnโt too keen on Pink Moon upon first listen a few months ago, so Iโm super surprised by how much a love Bryter Layter. The sound on this one is so full and lush, with lots of instrumentation including strings and sax (huge win for me). Just all around really beautiful. 4.5
what an album. what a group! 1979 was such a great year for music.
fantastic. hasnโt aged a day. 4.5
remain in light part two
no โค๏ธ
nearly makes my top 3 beatles albums. What Goes On and Run For Your Life are the stinkers but everything else is kind of perfect. 4.5 but no halfsies here so rounding to a 5
my favorite costello โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
i can definitely appreciate it, but phew it was a tougher listen than i was anticipating. the vocals were a little too much for me.
bland and not musically interesting but Beautiful Day went double platinum on my iPod touch when i was 13.
the clash are such an important band to me. they were the first punk and first political band i ever got into. they opened up the door for me in terms of punk music, and i genuinely learned a lot about the history of late 70s uk and just punk in general by getting into them. London Calling is their masterpiece of course, but their self-titled is easily my second fave. there are a few songs on here that i think are just fine, but most are the fucking best. Police & Thieves, Iโm So Bored, Career Opportunities, the list goes on. classic. iโm saving my 5 for London Calling, but this gets a 4.5 in my book.
bloated as helllll why is there an 11 minute long track in the middle of this ๐ญ
man iโve been on a journey with this album over the last three and a half yearsโฆ MFTM was the first depeche mode album i ever listened to in full. looking back, iโm not sure why i listened to this one first (my guess is because i loved Strangelove so much), but i really wasnโt into it much upon first listen. as i got more into depeche, i would come back to this and enjoy it more with each subsequent relisten. nowadays iโd say itโs one of my favorite albums of theirs. Little 15 is meh but everything else is soooo classic DM. 4.5
woah! this was awesome. fun listen.
damn! i knew nearly every song on here but had never listened to the album in full. all killer, no filler. 4.5
very nice
inoffensive but terribly boring
i feel like i should love this album, but it just doesnโt hit for me โน๏ธ iโve listened to it probably three or so times over the years, but i always feel like thereโs something missingโฆ Someday is a fantastic song though.
enjoyed the first half but i think it ended up getting a little stale 3.5
i always thought Modern Life Is Rubbish was my favorite Blur album, but idk this one has been hitting lately edit: the generator has this new edit feature which is great because the Parklife cd was recently in my car for a month straight on loop... five stars babey!
one of the albums of all time sorry
damn classic 4.5
iโve been meaning to relisten to this album for a while nowโฆ forgot how good it is. the title track is easily one of my favorite bowie songs (and one of his very best). 4.5 but rounding up since i enjoyed this one so much
timeless
woah! enjoyed it
pretty good! 3.5
dude rock (derogatory)
not bad but not for me
cool ๐ 3.5
iโm not sure what it is, but something always stops me from fully enjoying this albumโฆโน๏ธ really love Thief of Baghdad and Ha Ha Iโm Drowning though
glad the generator finally pushed me to listen to this album after years of it being on my โto listenโ list. really enjoyed it! and Cranes in the Sky is easily one of the best songs of the 2010s, argue with a wall.
i love Miss Me Blind DOWNNN 80s pop they could never make me hate you
ahead of its time sure, but also not very good lol
i laughed, i cringed, i got angry, i felt confused, i judged my dadโs taste in music, i laughed again and then it was over. one star โค๏ธ
cool album 3.5
3.5
love this album sooo much. not quite as good as The Queen Is Dead, but itโs close.
why did i kind of like this lol
3.5
tough one to rateโฆ really enjoyed the production, plus a lot of the songs are catchy, but i just canโt rate it higher due to the lyrics. dunking on women and gay people for laughs and shock value was the best he could do i guess.
no thank you
major classic. itโs hard to believe so many great songs are on one album. 4.5
sick
i think i prefer Frank, but this is undeniably great too. such a shame we lost her so soon.
3.5
probably closer to a 3.5 for me. killer sax.
had so much fun with this! 4.5
i relistened to this album in full yesterday while sitting on my balcony in the Texas summer heat, and honestly it was a perfect way to listen. funny that itโs my album of the day today. De La Soul is Dead in my number one De La album, but 3 Feet High is classic. great vibes and so influential! glad i got into the group last year. i love their music so much ๐ฅน
not interested in listening again, but i thought it would be much worse considering the reviews on here.
The Ocean is beautiful 3.5
3.5 ish?
i just got into Dinosaur Jr this year! love their stuff
I donโt think Iโll come back to it much but i enjoyed it ๐ 3.5
didnโt love it, didnโt hate it 2.5
this album is like a best friend to me
very lively and colorful! fun listen.
always nice to be reminded how good this album is. one of the best post punk albums for sure. Monitor is so awesome.
i listened to this for the first time a couple years ago, and i still feel the exact same about itโฆ there are few songs that i really like but overall, iโm not crazy about it. definitely ahead of itโs time though. probably around a 3.5
i love it when i get an album iโve never heard of and it turns out to be a fun listen!
i got this album ON Beyoncรฉโs birthday??? what an amazing coincidence. anyways, there is me before i listened to this album as a teen and thereโs after. it truly opened my eyes to feminism, female sexuality and more. my friends and i used to quote the opening skit of Haunted all the time, and we used to have dance parties listening to Drunk In Love and Partition. i think that Lemonade or Renaissance might be better albums, but self-titled will always have a special place in my heart. 4.5
bob dylan lite
i donโt think aerosmith and i really get along
best opening and closing tracks to an album? perhaps
i wish i liked this album more
i liked it, but i also wasnโt paying attention to the lyrics soโฆ 3.5
why did i get a tim buckley album two days in a row like what are the odds of thatโฆ.
all hail eno
i should definitely like this more, i mean Aja is one of my favorite albumsโฆ. maybe iโm not in the right mood today 3.5
despite being the most praised Coldplay album, iโve never been a super big fan of this one. itโs got some great songs, but overall it doesnโt really hit for me. itโs always nice to go back to bands i listened to as a teen though :) 3.5
pretty fucking awesome
my first QOTSA album! i wasnโt really sure what to expect, but i enjoyed it quite a bit. i definitely need to listen to Songs For The Deaf now. 3.5
kind of all blended into one song but it was a damn good song
i couldnโt even finish it </3
underrated bowie
really wished i liked this! the instrumentals were nice, but i donโt think i care for her voice that much. it reminds me of bjรถrkโs voice, who i love, so iโm not sure why i donโt connect with joannaโs? maybe in time iโd warm up to this, but i donโt see myself returning to it any time soon.
it was fine at first, but as it neared the end i just wanted it to be over lol
talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show-stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it
ooh interesting! i think my score could go up with further listens 3.5
thereโs only so much anthony kiedis i can takeโฆ 2.5
i canโt believe she was 21 when she released this, she shouldโve been at the club 3.5
wellโฆ. itโs certainly an album
3.5
surprisingly didnโt mind this. i enjoyed the instrumental tracks the most. reminds me of home. definitely wish it were shorter though.
meh
ooohโฆ quite good 3.5
not my vibe, but not bad
one of the best ever <3 i have so much love for this album.
badass
okay.. instrumentals werenโt bad, but the vocals are not my thing.
wait do i like the rolling stones? 3.5
meh, it was fine
not as good as Melt :(
hold upโฆ. i actually really liked this
i need a few more listens before i make my mind up on this one 3.5-ish
always love some zeppelin
one of those albums i know is good, but not something iโd come back to very much 3.5
quite enjoyed this one 3.5
pretty voice
2.5
not my favorite REM but it certainly has some bangers on it 3.5
one of my favorite albums of the 80s. the bass is a big standout for me. and glittering prizeโฆ ๐ฉท 4.5
this album is a firm 4.5 for me, but iโm rounding up to a 5 because a 4 just feels wrong
generic at times but better than i was expecting! 3.5
this seems to be the general consensus, but the best songs are the ones sung by grace slick. everything else is good... just not as good lol
i think i need some more time with this one 3.5
pure 80s cheese
enjoyed this one! 3.5
i really wish i liked this album more. iโve tried listening to it a few times before this, but it just doesnโt really speak to me. i still hold Trent Reznor in high regard though, so i give it a 3. also because Closer fucking rules.
:D
fun!
love this album. the back half in particular is great.
i just canโt seem to get into this kind of jazz 2.5
iโm a little more ambivalent towards this album than i had hoped going into it. probably more of a 3.5 but i could see it going up with more listens.
iโve never said anything bad about jazz, jazz is my friend 4.5
good but didnโt hit me like i wanted it to
fine for what it is, but not something iโd listen to in my free time
i was feeling a little iffy about this album at first, but the more i listened, the more i liked it
as iโve listened to more of Joniโs discography, iโve realized that I prefer some of her other albums to this one (Hejira, Court and Spark), but Blue is still such a classic. A Case of You makes me cry every time.
3.5
i prefer their debut. Peter Piper rules though.
๐ด
my first bob marley album! it was a super easy listen. 3.5
2.5 it was fine
who says cocaine never did any good?
โน๏ธ
quite good!
straight vibesss 3.5
I Saw The Light and Hello Itโs Me are two of my favorite songs ever. nice to finally listen to the full album, even though itโs too long for my taste. around a 3.5 i think, but i did enjoy it
i meanโฆ ok
donโt care much for live albums. at least this one went by fast.
3.5
4.5-ish
been meaning to listen to this album for a while. thanks, generator!! loved it
sheโs a genius
no better way to spend a sunny friday morning โ๏ธ
i like R.E.Mโฆ. but i canโt ever seem to love them 3.5
each time i goooo to bed iiii pray like areeeetha franklin ๐บ
hmโฆ i like this album less than i remember. Low is definitely the highlight of the Berlin Trilogy for me.
dancing queen is one of the best songs ever 3.5
i liked this more than i thought i would! 3.5
meh. never been a big Police fan
i feel like i should have liked this a lot more? maybe i wasnโt in the right mood today
parts of this i really liked and other partsโฆ blegh
iโm not the biggest fan of pop punk, but this certainly has its fair share of nostalgic 2000s tunes and fun deep cuts. solid 3.5
that title track though ๐ฎโ๐จ
longggg but i liked it more than Trout Mask Replica
i had never heard of this group or album before, but wow, what a great surprise. reminded me a few times of depeche modeโs 90s output mixed with trip hop of that time.
iโd be lying if i said Freak on a Leash wasnโt one of my favorite songs ๐คทโโ๏ธ most of this album was pretty tiring though.
very rarely do i not listen to an album in full, but iโm six songs in, and i can tell this is going to be one that i donโt finish. i just donโt care. if youโre a metallica fan, iโm sure this is great fun. otherwise iโm not sure why itโs on the list.
lovely 3.5
3.5
fun! great guitar parts too. That Lady is so classic. 3.5
solid album, sucks that most of it isnโt on streaming. but Moby Grape has to be one of the worst band names iโve ever heard lol
not their best nor is it my favorite of theirs but after a week a mid albums, this was like a godsend. i love u beatles!!!! 4.5
first Odessa, now thisโฆ pre-disco Bee Gees is just not it
ohhhhhโฆ i get it now.
classic
listened while on a walk on a beautiful saturday afternoon. loved it ๐โโ๏ธ
well i had fun
itโs honestly hard to put into words the respect and love i have for this album. the storytelling kendrick was able to achieve here is so impressive. you can really tell the vision he has for his music is so strong, even at his major label debut. i really wish people would be able to hear this album with open ears, taking in more than just what they hear on the surface. i really think this album deserves that.
wonderful 4.5
just because an album has a couple big singles doesnโt mean i need to listen to it before i die, robert dimery
falls under the category of things iโm not really cool enough to like
iโm not a particularly folksy person, but i enjoyed having this on. not something iโd come back to though. 3.5
she has the most lovely voice. probably would have rated this a four if it had been a little shorter. 3.5
meh
wow, fantastic. wish it was streaming. 4.5
easy five ๐ my second favorite beatles album :)
LOVE
itโs hard to be objective about an album i love so much! XTC is one of my favorite bands, and this was the album that really made me a fan. Black Sea has surpassed it as my favorite album of theirs, but iโll always hold Skylarking close to my heart.
Too Rye Ay has been one of my favorite album discoveries of this 1001 journey, so I was pretty excited to get Dexysโ debut today. It doesnโt quite have the catchy melodies of its successor, but Young Soul Rebels is a solid debut and a good mission statement for the sound of the band. 3.5
mmmm classic. Have a Cigar is one of my fave Pink Floyd songs. 4.5
listened to this at workโฆ i think in a different setting, i would give it a four. 3.5
pretty good 3.5
one of the great under-appreciated albums of the 80s. This is the Day is one of the greatest songs ever, and Jools Hollandโs piano solo in Uncertain Smile is an all-timer ๐คทโโ๏ธ 4.5
i liked the instrumentalsโฆ. probably need to relisten in the future to focus on lyrics. 3.5
despite being a fan of people involved with this album (Brian Eno, Flood), i find most of U2โs music to be supremely uninteresting. and iโve just grown tired of Bonoโs voice.
kinks, it seems iโve grown quite fond of you 3.5
80s post-punk my beloved ๐ค
not sure how much iโll return to this one, but i quite liked it 3.5
the beats were okayโฆ i donโt think heโs a very charismatic mc though
what can i say, i love 80s pop 3.5
not for me
never heard of this album going into it, but i really enjoyed it!
love ๐ฉท
very nice
the last two songs are a bit much for me, but most of this was okay.
3.5
not my favorite Outkast project (i prefer ATLiens and Aquemini), but Stankonia is really where their star power took off. B.O.B. is definitely their best song though, so fucking good!
sorry
might be his best solo album
started off strong, but i think the sophisti-pop started wearing on me
some real bangers on this one 3.5
one half of this album is great, the other half is meh. the single version of My Ever Changing Moods is a personal fave though ๐ฉท
rock box forever!!!! 3.5
yay i finally like this
we are one person we are two alone we are three together we are for each other ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ 3.5 because i like deja vu better
pretty okay. nice to have on in the background.
i need this on streaming immediately close to 4.5 i think
3.75
made my anxiety worse
her name is Rio and she dances on the sand, bitch!!!!!!
if i were more patient, iโd like this better
a little grating, but pretty fun and had good vibes 3.5
enjoyed this one, will probably come back to it.
when the two minute long intro is the best song on the album ๐ 2.5
really a 3.5 but i could see myself warming up to it with more listens
his voice is so grating, why is he yelling at me on every song! except maggie may, that song fucks
sparks you will always be famous 4.5
hmโฆ okay
my first Mariah album! i really havenโt delved into rnb too much so this was a nice listen. iโm not crazy about the slower tracks towards the end, they kind of stalled the album for me, but the first halfโฆ Fourth of July! Honey! woah. 3.5ish
iโm tired
โค๏ธ 3.5
is this the only Lana album on the list? feels like NFR or Born to Die should have been the pickโฆ
3.5
i havenโt listened to much of Costelloโs 90s offerings, but i quite liked this one. good for a Sunday morning listen :)
of the Roxy Music albums iโve listened to, i think this one is my favorite
i have no patience for this today
siiiiick i had no idea Alright was by this group lol
better than i was expecting
kinda fire??? would be nice on vinyl i bet 3.5
sorry 4.5
my dad (whose favorite band is Van Halen) โs review: โThe best one top to bottomโ yeah, itโs pretty good.
a slay
not as good as Purple Rain, and it loses me a bit in the second half, but it sticks the landing. around a 3.75
i really like the first two and final two songs, but i find the middle to beโฆ okay? fine? the songs donโt quite grab me the same way. i feel like if i listened in a different setting, i might feel differently. 3.5
smooooth 3.75
pet shop boysโ first five albums are all masterpieces ๐คทโโ๏ธ
i donโt know why, but i never like these guys. theyโre not bad, but i canโt ever get into them. 2.5
really dug the instrumental tracks
itโs got some bangers, but iโm not crazy about it? not sure why. still a good album though 3.5
3.75
for every banger, there were at least two songs i nearly turned off
3.5ish
HELL YEAH!!! perfect album to get me through Friday. nearly a perfect album itself. and for what itโs worth, Rock with You is probably my favorite MJ song. 4.5
okay, iโm interestedโฆ
damn i didnโt realize how much i actually like this albumโฆ thank you, generator ๐
3.5
crazy ass album cover 3.5
had the biggest smile on my face when i saw this was my album today. i love Tribe sooo much. they are such a special group and certainly a favorite of mine. any list that youโll find says this is their best album, which is totally fair. it was a game changer upon release and ground zero for Jazz Rap. but i think the track list isnโt as tight as Midnight Marauders or Peopleโs Instinctive Travels (which might be a hot take? sorry i just love that one). Infamous Date Rape hasnโt aged well despite the message itโs trying to present, and i find What? to be weak compared to other songs on the album. but oh man when The Low End Theory hits? thereโs nothing like it. from the chemistry of the MCs on Scenario, to the back and forth of Q-Tip and Phife on Check the Rhime, to the iconic opening verse of Excursions, this album is so important to the history of hip-hop and to many of its fans - including myself,
