Interesting, definitely not my style.
Not repetitive, and goes in unexpected ways but still peaceful and not too crazy.
2 very long tracks only.
Super chill with a few classic songs. Still struggle a bit with steely dan's vocals but you can see the detail and precision in their songs.
Really enjoyed "Too Afraid To Love", beat reminds me of a Wu-Tang song.
All the songs seem to blend together.
Definitely feels very pretentious. It's good for sure, but just seems to full of itself.
Enjoyable really a 3.5 stars for me
Just not feeling it, they were never in my wheel house when this stuff was new, and hasn't really grown on me since.
Some catchy stuff in a few song for sure, but just not understanding the hype.
Stunning voice.
Obvious similarity to amy winehouse
I'm likely missing a great majority of the meaning given my inability decipher a majority of the lyrics.
Honestly not sure what to think of this, some of it is entertaining, it's all over the place in terms of musical style, lyrical content etc. Wide ranging.
Great. Way out there, but still accessible and entertaining.
Some classics, but rough. Never quite realized exactly how this early british stuff took from R&B bands.
Slow and mellow, definitely not my cup of tea but I can appreciate it.
Super smooth and enjoyable. Stays on target the entire time.
Amazing, I feel bad for not ever hearing this.
Great voice, some haunting tunes, but still sounds amazing today. 4/5
Strange, music is catchy and definitely a lot of familiar vibes in a lot of the songs (not sure if it's them copying others or others copying them as I was totally unfamiliar with the band). Lots of seemingly needlessly graphic lyrics caught me off guard.
Definitely has a lot of huge ideas, not totally sold on the content but have to respect what was attempted.
Classic and all time great.
Great musically, but just for the life of me can't get over Geddy's voice...
A whole lotta meh, not super interesting and just downright strange at points. 2
Very good and a real throw back for me. 4
Very good, never really listened to Iggy outside of the "hits", but very enjoyable would listen again.
Very good musically, definitely not my preferred stuff but enjoyable none the less.
Obviously incredibly talented, but the content...
Very good and listenable, went through it twice in fact.
Think too much (a) is amazing.
Cars are cars - good as well.
5. Excellent album.
Not a fan of his faux deepness, and he gets on my nerve a bit, but can't deny the excellent production and musical qualities.

A product of a different era, hard to really judge it but nothing stood out as being memorable to me at all.

I'm clearly either a basic bitch or the lyrics are all just verbal diarrhea trying to sound deep.

Love hurts is great cover, overall reasonably enjoyable.
Crazy and insane as he is, but overall not bad.
3
Simply incredible and one of my all time favorite albums.
A wild roller coaster of creativity.
Strange and all over the place..
Just a lot of meh, a different time and some obviously classic and memorable songs but not for me at this point.
3 all time classic songs.
Her voice can be a bit grating, but overall impressive.
Not great, not bad, definitely not my cup of tea though.
Start! the best song by far.
Scrape away wasn't bad.
He's just too much some times, and this recording seems to highlight it...
Never listened to a full zz top album before, but this is quality.
Clearly catchy tunes but just some vapid, low self esteem, and degrading lyrical content
Interesting and had no expectations going in. Definitely not my style but appreciate it.
Probably a 3.5 for me.
First time listening, but enjoyed it.
A bit chaotic in places but a nice dip into a full Afghan Whigs album.
Had zero expectations coming in, but fun and interesting.
Pretty good and amazingly creative, but again lyrical content is disturbing, even more so given what we know about the artist.
Obviously not surprising given the title but still
Fine, nothing incredible and given the history of these types of groups...
Just not for me, not sure what the appeal is.
Realizing it can be difficult to put things into their time and perspective, but at this point just feels like a bad white dude hip hop skit.
Really interesting, definitely a fan of Hide In Your Shell
Not really sure what it was, but had some catchy stuff, some head scratching stuff.
Was interesting reading about the other artists who claimed they were influenced by the group.
Definitely not in my zone but pretty much the most classic country I can think of. Some good ones though, but also some depressing shit.
Again a little out of time now, but clearly influential and some all time classics.
Smooth, powerful, pretty great.
Really enjoyed it, a couple oddities, but very good.
In general not a big fan of UK hip hop (if that's the right term) but this surprised me. Not bad!
Interesting, but mesmerizing.
Bounced between a 2 and a 3.
Just another one of those feels like it's trying too hard and missing the target.
Just strange... a few songs that hit ok, but lots of just random noise.. not sure.
Obviously a classic, though I gotta shake my head at total nonsensical lyrics that try and appear deep....
Strange definitely not in my wheel house.
Great all the way through
Feels incredibly transitory from old "party" beastie boys to their next evolution. Very good.
Really enjoyed nightblind
I simply don’t understand the fascination
Wouldn't have ever thought i'd like this, but i'm damn impressed.
Not bad, but totally anonymous and forgettable. Maybe it stood out more in it's time, but now sounds like countless other chill vibes type stuff to my untrained ear.
Classic, truly.
Would love to know the origin of her vocal warble/shake voice thing she has going on, was this a thing before her or something she brought to the country music table?
Had no expectations coming in, but enjoyed it
Some great songs, the really weak between track skits are just.. not something I miss these days.... very hit or miss.
Super interesting, had never heard of this band before but enjoyed it.
Great, some less uhh enlightened songs in there
Most bearable Smiths album I’ve ever heard, didn’t make me want to end it all. Truly didn’t think that could happen
Teenage me thought this was way better than 45 year old me. Some great tracks but overall just doesn’t do it for me
Pretentious, repetitive, faux intellectual drivel
All his bs aside, it’s a pretty stunning album
Amazing... just speechless really
Drones ad repetitive…. Not for me
Solid with a few great ones.
Pretty incredible detail. Also amazing seeing how many times it’s been sampled
Great stuff even if I usuallly can’t stand Mr young’s singing
Too weird and demented for me…
Not my favorite, but good for what it is.
Solid even though I usually can’t deal with the moan and drone
A truly standout and legendary album.
The longest I’ve ever been able to stomach Radiohead outside of creep. Still can’t help that they’re the musical equivalent of thinking your shit doesn’t stink
Solid, the mother song is strange as hell
Street life title song is amazing
Never really sat down to listen to them before, shame it took me so long. Good shit
