So chill and easy listening. Calming, relaxing and mellow Texas

Only one song has vocals, raging background music

Didn’t like it as much as I remembered. A couple bangers, the rest was noisy

Bangers, with some sleepy ones throughout

Absolutely.

Smooth and bouncy. Enjoyed but not something I would put on for myself.

A classic to be played more around the house! Glad to have it reintroduced.

Hell yea I want to be in the dog gang

🤘🏼🤘🏼

I have always loved this album. One of my all time tops.

I liked the first song

Started promising but got a bit boring

Surprisingly enjoyed

Anxiety inducing punk cabaret music?

Memories give this one an extra star

A bunch of cats being electrocuted. Couldn’t finish the album, though I wanted to save the cats.

A bit of a snoozer but good for a chill time

A bit of a snoozer but good for a chill time

Funky and weird

Hated his voice

It’s great when sentimental music is still good music

That voice

Some songs were noise, others were great

Some songs were noise, others were great

I also feel younger than I was back then

Absolutely yes. Bring on da funk

Only liked a couple songs, but the Spotify radio that came on after the album finished was excellent.

Bored and annoyed?

Flight of the conchords?

Ragey and effective.

Beautiful but now I’m depressed

Yes. Yes. Absolutely yes.

I rode my bike so fast

Bliss

Who doesn’t love a little morning rage?

My poor ears

No notes

Meh, should have stayed a one hit wonder

So repetitive

Meh

Just not as good as Let It Bleed

Next

Nah

Smooth mellows

Smooth mellows

boo. Went in thinking I’d love it, but boo.

Very inconsistently medium

First song stunk, I was surprised to like it better after that

Ay caramba Im into it

Had to give an extra star for tainted love. It’s clear they were all in a midlife crisis and trying to take me down with them. Boooo

All my problems just float away on a blunt

Deep Purple is a great band name

Nope. But I did want to use this time to talk about how good Lucinda Williams is.

So clunky. Has a couple of my faves but a lotttttt of duds

2 stars is still more than I thought I’d like it

Some yes, some no.

Oh no absolutely not

Why do I remember liking this?

Really confused at how much I didn’t like this. Kept expecting it to get better. It did not.

Oddly heard Billy Joel in a couple songs.

Pretty perfect. Also love 34 min albums.

This is just not good? Who voted for this crap?

Meh

Meh

What a snoozefest

Not as good as 2001 but helped save a brutal music week.

Everybody knows this is an incredible album. I could scream “down by the river” infinitely.

An extra star because it was more listenable than I expected. But still an absolutely not for me.

Felt like a Xmas album

Meh. Love early Kanye. This wasn’t my favorite. Just dragging the wealth-obsessed while declaring himself God. Good beats, especially Bound 2.

Overall mediocre, uninteresting more than bad.

Shockingly but decidedly not garbage

This is better than Yeezus.

Before this exercise in music I assumed I knew what Black Sabbath was. I was wrong and I love it. 🤘

Not as good as Black Sabbath, but still good.

Dear lord that was annoying to listen to

Instrumentals are great; wish there were no vocals.

Vibes are immaculate. Energy is tops. Not my fave album of his but holds up.

I think this is a perfect album and very clearly written by someone with an Eiffel Tower-sized dick.

Too soft to be hard. Too bad to be good.

I know I’m supposed to like this more…I don’t though

Listenable but largely uninteresting. Feel truly neutral.

What a chill, great time I had

My whole body relaxed listening to this

It’s just…not for me. This is one of those situations where I’m pretty sure it’s a me problem though.

Liked it but docked a star because one song in the middle gave me anxiety.

If this music came out today I don’t think I would like it as much. But the nostalgia factor + degree of innovation = 4

A fine 20 minutes of music but what the Spotify algorithm fed me as a result was fire.

Some real duds mixed in but absolutely classic in the way the Mona Lisa is classic but not my favorite art. Also why did I hear Billy Joel on the back half of ‘One of my Turns’?

That was a surprisingly good time. Mellow and funky just like I like it.

I dunno, mostly just not what I was in the mood for

Despite the fact that I sang along to a lot of it, I don’t care for it or about it. Respect the song writing, disrespect the vibes.

I could listen to this album in any mood. Over and over easy listening.

Flawless front to back. It feels like the brand of angst and kindness I try to embody. Put it on my tombstone.

Most post-punk is not for me and this was no exception.

Did a whole lot of jolly head banging, some giggling, and no skipping.

Well that was fun!! Amazing walking around snowy New York to these beats and grooves.

I just love folk harmony. It didn’t blow me away but was top tier background reading music.

Like sure. Fine. I get it? But maybe the problem is that I don’t? Plenty of bops in here but ultimately left a bad taste in my mouth.
