This is annoying. I put off listening to this album for over a week because of the length. Speakerboxxx is excellent. I really enjoyed it, and it's a four-star album for me. The Love Below is less to my taste, and by the time I was two-hours into a constant stream of OutKast I was pretty sick of it.

Excellent album. Reminiscent of all-night work sessions in Uni. Ethereal and melancholic.

Good album with some excellent lyrics.

Some good songs, but the album as a whole is a bit samey for the most part.

A high three. Some classics on there and overall an excellent classic rock album. Classic rock just doesn't always do it for me, though.

High 3. Good Britpop with some genuinely top notch songs. A sign of the times.

Great album which includes one of the classic rock songs of all time, Free Bird. Plenty of other great songs, too.

High 3. Some good songs on there that I'd never heard.

Not my cup of tea. Repetitive and boring.

Solid classic rock, a high 3.

Decent album, but The Cure's vocals aren't my thing.

Country and western doesn't hit quite right when it's pouring down outside.

Better than I expected. Generic, easy-access rock with some solid guitar work. Nothing 'exceptional' about it though.

Interesting album. Electronic music isn't my thing but this was relaxing, relatively enjoyable and quite weird.

Didn't really capture my attention. Not my style of rock.

Good lounge rap album. Seems like one of those albums that gets better with subsequent listens.

Blues is not my favourite, but this was... listenable. The talent is undeniable.

The musicianship is unquestionable. More of a criticism of me, really, but I felt on the cusp of understanding the music, but I may be too stupid to fully appreciate jazz. It was an enjoyable listen, though.

Pretty faultless pop album that I enjoyed, despite not actually liking pop music.

One of the first albums I ever bought. The nostalgia is strong and it still stands up to the test, providing you're in the mood for some angry, angsty music. The Rollin' remix and nine-minute outro are unnecessary, though.

I feel like I may have rated this higher if I was in a club rather than working. Decent enough, I'm just not into techno or house.

Cracking album, full of bangers and very enjoyable even for somebody who isn't usually fond of this genre of music.

More enjoyable than I expected. A bit samey and monotone at times but still decent.

One half decent song but largely I couldn't wait for it to end.

Not my style of music, but excellent vocals and a relatively enjoyable album to have on in the background.

I was unimpressed at first but this album grew on me massively as it went on. I'll definitely revisit.

Below-average Britpop from a bloke who can't really sing. Boosted to 2 stars because of the presence of a couple of classics from my childhood.

I really just don't like dance music. I can see the appeal of this and it's not a bad album, but it's not for me.

Second half was better than the first. It's a 2.5, so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt because I'm probably just too stupid to understand jazz.

He's just a very good artist, isn't he? Not generally my style of music but I'll be revisiting this album.

Never heard these before but they're definitely worth another listen. Close to a 4, but not quite there. 3.5

Excellent classic prog rock. Tom Sawyer fantastic and some just fantastic musicianship throughout.

A decent, if largely unmemorable, experience.

I was there for it at the start and excited about what was to come. Unfortunately, nothing particularly interesting followed, and by the end I was just waiting for it to finish so I could move on to something else.

It's folk rock so I struggle to rate it any higher than a 3, but it was decent enough.

I had never listened to any OutKast bar the radio hits, so I was pleasantly surprised by this. Some very good tracks and it just about scrapes a 4 for me.

This was just... Nice. I can't put my finger on why, but it was just a very enjoyable listen.

Banger after banger after banger. You don't even have to be intoxicated. This worked just as well at 7am on a train.

Better than the majority of 60s rock, but still very much of its time.

Just sort of mediocre pop / R&B. It wasn't offensive, but nothing stood out to me.

A flawless 90s thrash metal album. It has 3-4 of my favourite Metallica songs on it, and it's been that long since I listened to it all the way through that I'd forgotten how good the rest of it was.

This is annoying. I put off listening to this album for over a week because of the length. Speakerboxxx is excellent. I really enjoyed it, and it's a four-star album for me. The Love Below is less to my taste, and by the time I was two-hours into a constant stream of OutKast I was pretty sick of it.

This was my second two-hour long album in a row, so it may be the bias and fatigue talking, but I was happy when it finished. Nothing offensively bad about it, it's just a bit dull.

It was okay.

Like a walk through Bob Dylan's life.

One of those albums where it sounds like the vocals were conceived entirely separately from the rest of the music and the bass player demanded to play a starring role. My dad would love it. He probably has it, actually.

Just... Nothing really stands out.

I forgot how good this album is. Just full of absolutely cracking songs from start to finish.

Fast-paced and blessedly short. I can see why people like this, but it's not for me.

I want to give this a 4, but it's just not quite there. There are a few really good songs and it does do things a little different from a generic rock album. A high 3.

Good. Not my style, but still pretty enjoyable.

Didn't expect to like this as much as I did. More varied than I expected, a *big* voice and just an overall quality listen.

Street Life is a solid 4/5 track. The proceeding 30-minutes of jazz instrumentals wore a little thin, though. More Street Life, less instrumental.

Just generic, bland rock.

Sort of, alright I guess. Wishy-washy, but relatively listenable. Nothing to write home about.

The live songs at the end saved it a bit. Up until that point it was repetitive and largely boring.

Smooth as butter, but I can't imagine a scenario where I would play any of these songs apart from a date-night playlist where I'm hoping to get lucky. I guess for that alone it deserves a 3.

Some good stuff here, well-known stuff. Not my 'type', but good for what it is and deserves a 3.

A few great songs on here that stand the test of time. A low 4 just due to a small portion of it ageing poorly.

A tough one. It's fairly catchy, clearly significant, and well done, but I just don't like it all that much.

Great voice, a few catchy tunes. Another one that just isn't my style. I wouldn't turn it off if it came on, but I'd never seek it out.

I appreciate experimental and ambient music, but this just wasn't that interesting. There was nothing to hold onto so it just sorta of drifted from start to finish and left me constantly checking how long was left on it.

I wasn't that impressed by this on the first listen, but I forgot to review so I listened again and liked it much more on the second run through. A low 4.

I just don't really like Prince that much. This is 'alright'.

I understand this is experimental, but there is next to no cohesion across this album. It just feels like a lot of shit thrown at a wall and only a minuscule amount sticks.

It's alright, I guess. I appreciate the concept and the cohesion, but it just doesn't grab me.

More generic-sounding country music.

Surprisingly excellent. Started off really, really strong and only got slightly weaker before ending on the high of evermore. I started off at a high 4, but I started listening again to pick out the highlights and realised that almost every song is a highlight. Extra-special highlights: willow, champagne problems, gold rush, tolerate it, no body no crime, ivy, and evermore.

Decent, if unmemorable album. Writing this review a few days after listening to it and I can't really remember any songs, but it was relatively enjoyable to listen to.

This disappointed me. I remember MGMT bursting onto the scene when I was a teenager and, while it's still decent, it hasn't really stood the test of time. "Time to Pretend" and "Kids" are still impressive, but the album as a whole didn't.

A high 3 / low 4. I love the musicianship. Some excellent drumming and guitar work, but that 80s style of metal vocals just doesn't vibe with me. I probably won't add any of these songs to my playlist, so for that reason I'm going to have to say a 3.

Decent country rock, but nothing stood out for me. It was a pleasant listen and I wouldn't mind it being on, but I'm not actively putting any of this on my own playlist.

Loved it. Dramatic beats, cool lyrics, great guest appearances. Highlights: Shakey Dog, The Champ, Clipse of Doom, Underwater, Three Bricks.

Yeah, I mean it's good soul / funk music, but I just don't like soul or funk music. I wouldn't add any of these songs to my playlist, but I also wouldn't actively be annoyed if it came on.

Very listenable, even though I don't really like soul. I can see why it's considered a classic.

Very 60s. Listenable and relatively enjoyable, but is it enough to push it into a 4? Probably not.

Started off quite strong, but I didn't enjoy the second half so much. Nice guitars and drums. Lost Women the highlight.

I'd like this if it wasn't Rod Stewart, but I can't get past his annoying trait of singing in an American accent. A shame.

This sounds like the sort of album that gets better with each subsequent listen. Started off with an absolute cracker in One Hundred Years before falling off slightly. A low 4, but possibly rising with future listens.

The Spotify link only includes side one of four. It's nice soul music, but I'm just not that into soul. I can't fault it though, it's a fairly enjoyable thing to have on.

I was excited but apprehensive when this came up. Sigur Ros were one of my favourite bands as a late teenager but it had been a while since I'd listened to them in earnest. It did not disappoint. A relaxing background ambiance punctuated by periods of intensely emotional music. It drags you down before sweeping orchestral segments fling you back up, evoking a sense of hopefulness that genuinely brought tears to my eyes and a smile to my face at times. Staralfur, Ny Batteri, and Hjartao Hamast are the standout tracks in a fantastic post-rock album second only to ( ).

Just another mediocre 70s rock-ish album with nothing that really captures the attention.

Great dad-rock. You could probably put this entire album on at a wedding and nobody would complain. More Than A Feeling and Peace Of Mind the highlights.

1 star feels a tad too harsh, but this was a really tough listen. All the negatives of punk, specifically the vocals, but without any of the positives. Without any of the feeling. Just a janky, synthy layering of noise.

Plenty of bangers. I imagine this would be cranked up to a 5 if I was having a few drinks and getting ready for a night out. As it happened, I listened to it during a Saturday morning at work and it was still a cracking time. Highlights Song for Lindy and The Weekend Starts Here.

I don't really know what this is, but I like it. I'm a sucker for orchestral backing and experimental, rock-based music. Sort of reminds me of a cross between Sigur Ros and the In Rainbows days of Radiohead. Chicago and The Seer's Tower the highlights, but that could change on another listen.

The music was good, but I really could have done without the French man simply speaking over the top of it.

Just mediocre, unmemorable, noughties hip-hop. I'd like to include a highlight song to add to my playlist, but I genuinely can't even remember any of the songs.

I don't really know what to say about this. It was decent, but I can't really think of any tracks that were standout enough to bring this up to a four-star album for me.

Generally speaking I'm not a fan of punk, but this was an enjoyable listen. Accessible and catchy riffs. Barmy and My New House the standout tracks.

I think this would've been a 4 if I was listening to this in my garden in June, rather than in the middle of winter in a dark office. Concrete Jungle and High Tide or Low Tide are good.

A genuine shock. I've listened to Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds before but was turned off by Cave's voice. I still don't really like it. Fuck, I'm not even sure Nick Cave likes Nick Cave's voice, but it fits the bill perfectly in this album. Full of atmosphere, inventive lyrics, great musicianship. Where the Wild Roses Grow, Song of Joy, Henry Lee, and The Curse of Millhaven standout tracks in an album full of them.

Top-tier 80s pop. Sounds like it was recorded in a big shipping container. Shout and Everybody Wants to Rule the World the highlights.

More great pop from the 80s/90s era. Fall At Your Feet, Weather With You, and Four Seasons In One Day are all absolutely excellent and the whole album is very listenable.

Listenable R&B. Lost Ones, Superstar and When It Hurts So Bad the highlights

Large portions of this album fade into obscurity, but bangers like I'm Shakin' and Freedom at 21 save it from mediocrity.

Surprisingly enjoyable, but not something I'll listen to again. Great voice and catchy music. Come Next Spring and The Girl From The Streets the standout tracks.

Ironically named because this is perhaps one of the least thrilling albums I've ever listened too. Ponderous, repetitive, and almost offensively bland. At one point one of them tuned down their guitar and I thought something might happen, but then the harmonica came out and the vocalist repeated the same innane lyrics 15 times on the trot.
