relisten. liked it better than the first time id ever listened to it (circa 2017). the opening song is incredible but it feels like it promises an incredible album that never comes and then it just goes down from there. still a solid, coherent album with a pleasant 90s vibe. might even go back to it sometimes.
first in entirety listen. very cool and funky. the late 80s/early 90s old school hip-hop is my favourite.
first listen. typical REM album, pleasant to the ear but absolutely nothing stands out and leaves you wising it was heavier or there was more going on.
relisten. the best Elton John album and one of the absolute best albums of the 70s or even of all time. not a single skip for all the 75 minutes. so beautiful, nostalgic and catchy. sounds like a good memory, old friend or a sunny day.
relisten. not many albums make me wanna get up and dance the way this one does. the title is literally spot on.
relisten. very solid album, many great songs but at the end of the day not really my cup of tea.
first listen. i tried really hard but i didnt like this album at all. it just went from boring to annoying. i prefer Simon and Garfunkel together
first listen. i had no idea Bjork used to be in a band but i really liked this album. i will be most definitely revisiting it.
first listen. pretty good but not very memorable tbh.
first listen. interesting but not my cup of tea.
first listen. not my thing.
first listen. pretty good, not something i would put on myself tho.
relisten. great record, it was nice to revisit it. its not my favourite Dre album tho.
first listen. such a fun album!! i will definitely revisit it.
first listen. this album is phenomenal!! so grateful to this list for introducing me to it. now im gonna listen to Piano Joint (This Kind Of Love) on repeat!!
first listen in entirety. i know its a very good and influential album in general but at the end of the day i don't think I'll come back to it.
relisten. im not the biggest fan of the early Beatles, i much prefer their albums from the late 60s but this one is very pleasant .
first listen. i cant believe i had never heard of this band before but im obsessed!!!! this album sounds like something engineered to be exactly my taste. another proof that music peaked in the 90s.
relisten. i just love Sonic Youth.
relisten. ironic, legendary showstopping.
relisten. one of the greatest and probably most underrated albums of the entire 60s. so many absolute bangers. still cant believe they put she has funny cars, somebody to love, today, white rabbit and plastic fantastic lover on the same album.
first listen. ive been refusing to listen to Morrissey's solo music for like 10 years now and apparently I was right to do so. Cant believe how cringe the lyrics are. This album in general is so much worse than i expected it to be and i already expected it to be bad. It got better in the second half but after that beginning it was really hard to get into it.
first listen in entirety. cool but not my favourite daft punk album
first listen. Very cool music really did peak in the 90s
first listen. pretty cool but i doubt ill ever come back to it
relisten. talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before
first listen. it wasnt that bad but i simply do not enjoy reggae music like at all
first listen. nice , pleasant to the ear, will probably come back to it to pick some songs for my 60s playlist
relisten. i love everything about this record, especially ms Lauryn Hill, i believe she's the reason why it stands out of the crowd so much even tho so many legendary hip-hop albums were released around the same time
relisten. devastatingly beautiful
relisten. great album 0 skips
relisten. if you didn't grow up with an older sibling in the 00s you probably don't get it. i feel like every time i listen to this album it's better than i remembered
first listen. usually i love old school rap but this list made me realize that i do not like Public Enemy like at all.
first listen. hated it couldn't even go through the whole thing
relisten. my 2nd favourite album of my favourite band of all time. i love everything Blur has done but this record and 13 (1999) changed my life and music taste forever. its the epitome of the late 90s music and everything ive ever wanted from an album. i also appreciate how balanced and diverse it is with fun tracks like On Your Own, moody tracks like Beetlebum, devastating tracks like Strange News from Another Star and the experimental tracks on which they really let their imagination flow like Essex Dogs and Death of a Party. i also think this was the first time they implemented that spooky sound (Theme from Retro, Death of a Party) that they later perfected on 13 and Damon carried over to Gorillaz (which was always my favourite part of Gorillaz early projects).
long story short: amazing album that influenced even more amazing music
first listen. quite nice but too jazzy for me. I can't imagine myself ever coming back to it.
first listen. very chill and pleasant to the ears, i liked it a lot
relisten. breathtakingly beautiful, masterful, inspirational, nostalgic, haunting. full of love and at the same time full of sorrow. makes me feel a lot of things. i thought about reaching for this album lately but was afraid it would just make me feel worse. turns out it's exactly what I needed.
relisten. probably unpopular opinion but its one of my favorite Iron Maiden albums and one that i return to the most often i think. Remember Tomorrow is such a great song.
relisten. basically a flawless album.
first listen in entirety. im not gonna go out of my way to put on and listen to Bon Jovi but this was quite good. Not really my thing but great for the radio.
relisten. this album perfectly captures the coming of age experience. it meat to me a lot when i was a teenagers saying goodbye to my childhood and it means a lot to me now that im still new to being an independent adult and miss my carefree years. the music and lyrics cover everything related to growing up and leaving home. the nostalgia, the desire to experience new things and decide for yourself, the freedom, the fear of what the future might bring, not wanting to come back but remembering when you're from, not recognizing the place you once called home anymore, the community, the loneliness.
I absolutely love the way they introduced some post apocalyptic themes to it all because they fit the concept of the album perfectly. The last line of Future Reflections that also happens to be the last line of the album hold a special place in my heart. "There's a sea outside my door and one day I'll appreciate the rush of blood and the washed out beat of the shore and remember what it felt like to be alone."
MGMT is a very important band to me. I think all of their other albums are as worth giving a listen as this one. Even though they are all completely different, i could never mistake them for anything else. They truly mastered their own unique sound and know exactly what to do with it without repeating themselves.
first listen. After a rough start I ended up enjoying it. Great guitar work
first listen. very nice and pleasant to the ears but far from being my favourite Byrds album, it doesn't really stand out
first listen. Not my cup of tea.
relisten. not to come out as an Oasis fan but I do love this album a lot. it truly captures the 90s britpop spirit to the fullest. its one of those records that make me nostalgic for something ive never experienced, places ive never been to and people ive never met. I still think Oasis used to make the same song over and over again but that one time it really worked.
first listen in entirety. I'm glad I had finally listened to the full album. I've been meaning to do it for a while and I really liked it. Will definitely come back to it.
first listen. Great background music I had fun
relisten. do I even have to say anything? It's a classic for a reason.
first listen in entirety. I liked it a lot. It a solid album but with the exception of a couple of tracks not very memorable tbh.
relisten. i love this record!!! it's one of the albums that introduced me to pre-2000s music. it's basically directly responsible for my current music taste.
first listen. i like instrumental music and King Crimson music as long as there are some lyrics. But I hate king crimson's instrumentals. Theyre so boring (going on annoying).
first listen. Nice but underwhelming
first listen in entirety. not my cup of tea.
relisten. my second favorite Bowie album. deserves 5 stars for the opening into alone.
relisten. literally the album of all time i don't even think i have the vocabulary to explain how mind-blowing and perfectly crafted it is.
first listen. Or not. I'm not listening to that.
first listen in entirety. But I felt like I knew all the songs already anyway. It's good, very solid and enjoyable. Not sure if I'll ever come back to it tho.
first listen. I liked a couple of SOAD songs when I was in primary/middle school but this album is so boring
relisten. deserves 5 stars for my body is a cage alone.
relisten. love love love this album. One of my faves when it comes to hip-hop and the 90s.
first listen. I mean I've known all these songs before but this is the first time I listened to this record. It was ok but I'm not the biggest fan of live albums.
relisten. One of my comfort albums
first listen. Pretty cool but I got tired of it rather fast
first listen in entirety. ive been meaning to check this record out properly for years. I enjoyed it but I'm also not blown away
relisten. One of the best grunge albums i believe
first listen. I've had like 3 attempts but I can't go through this album it's just a bunch of noise to me.
first listen. Will definitely go back to this album. I love moody sad boy music from the 00s
first listen. It's nice very pleasant
