mf rhymed 'dangerous' with 'contagerious'

maybe a bit of right-place-right-time, but loved this. what a brilliant surprise.

well that certainly was 76 minutes of music

there's a dude in the comments complaining that 'where is my mind?' doesn't answer the question posed in the title. here are some other songs this guy would hate: can you feel the love tonight? don’t you want me? should i stay or should i go? how will i know? who let the dogs out? how deep is your love? wouldn’t it be nice? how soon is now?

I'VE JUST HAD THIS ALBUM. IT IS FUCKING MINGING. PARACHUTES PUNCH LEMONADE. IT IS FUCKING MINGING. SUCK YOUR DAD

this is entirely too smooth for the likes of me

mf rhymed 'dangerous' with 'contagerious'

when it's good it's very good. when it's not it's... extremely dull

significantly worse than i was expecting

now this is *exactly* what i was expecting

some seriously powerful stuff on here. wow.

staggering, phenomenal, essential, a Major Work. an unbelievable achievement then, now, always.

yeah, this is some really good stuff. 9 min spoken intro just adds to the vibes.

took a while, but when it clicks this is pretty good. enjoyed how low key and simmering this is

not much to say, it was alright

this was funky... but not *that* funky, y'know?

expectation: a bunch of big hits reality: a bunch of big hits and tons of absolutely bonkers stuff in between. amazing.

welcome to the 90s. perfect for a chill, sunny sunday afternoon spent drinking and playing d&d

this was great fun

first half slapped. second half was pretty dull tho

sad banger after sad banger

sorry suggs

there are fewer than one hundred 'ultra bangers' in existence, and there's one on this album.

id give it 3.5 if i could, but hey, you gotta round down

truly baffling. not even the continued horse metaphors can save it

smoooooothhhhhh operator

well that certainly was 76 minutes of music

what's the matter lagerboy, afraid you might taste something?

hear the /jazz/ go down

pure cheese

extremely 70s

some real bangers on here

such a brilliant classic. and they get better from here!

big call here after just one listen but i think this is fantastic. chilling, heavy, melancholy, aching and beautiful.

really enjoyed this. going straight into the rotation

eight perfect songs. a masterpiece

thoroughly enjoyable stuff. it's 1990s away from being a 4

THERE'S A GENTLEMAN THAT'S GOING ROUND // TURNING THE JOINT UPSIDE DOWN

this really surprised me - was heaps of fun

just good stuff innit

pretty enjoyable stuff. jazzie b is from hornsey btw

the acceptable facet of the 90s

i've never listened to this before but my next door neighbour in halls certainly did

mf rhymed 'd'accord' with 'gare du nord'

WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY SWAMP?!?!

man, prog rock rules so hard

what if we took evident, lightly worn genius... and slathered it with incredible levels of misogyny

don't know grunge at all but that was fun

first time listener!!! i loved the bit with the harmonica

TWO CHIMPS IN A WICKER BASKET YOU THINK THATS PRETTY CLEVER DONT YOU BOY

don't know what i was expecting but it was certainly better than what i got

good clean fun

this is stunning, innit

I'VE JUST HAD THIS ALBUM. IT IS FUCKING MINGING. PARACHUTES PUNCH LEMONADE. IT IS FUCKING MINGING. SUCK YOUR DAD

one good song, eleven times over. it is a banger tbf

funny story about that last track...

i listened to this album sooo much during my first summer in london. on reflection it's a bit baggy and has a couple too many songs about 'characters' but ... PARKLIFE!

this was fun but i thought it was gonna be more, y'know, outrageous?

i found this pretty charming. great album cover too

wow, absolutely incredible. kinda blown away by how brilliant this is. nothing like i expected!

god bless abba and their transparent egg copter

i was so ready to like this. guess i'm a rocker

this is awesome

sadly didn't do anything for me... which is mad cos im a big fan of 90s REM. +1 star for the two hits

justice for zaheer

hell YEAH

+1 for free bird

oh mannnnnn.

guess i'm an abba person!

Q - why does liam gallagher always order the soup? A - YOU GET A ROLL WITH IT

OMG. imagine seeing this live...

all time entry in the "oh! it's THIS song!" genre

you can't fool me, michael stipe

i listened to a ukrainian version of highway to hell after passing my driving test. great times

it's the 90s!

jose.gif

just miss once king

you get a lot of music for your money. and most of it excellent

i've tried to listen to this album exactly twice in my life now and each time, it's a big yawn

i'm always in the mood for gwent

the hissing of summer yawns

phenomenal. unique and haunting. what a classic.

way better than I thought it'd be. and then it has any right to be, really!

great tunes and great album art. winner!

uninteresting and unremarkable

sat with this for a long while, but no, it's not doing anything for me. might give skylarking a spin, tho...

a banger followed by a bunch of snoozers

my school once kicked off an assembly with back in black, before the resident "hard man" teacher came out and told us about some strict new rules for that year

remarkably chill and funky

this slapped. vive la mid 2000s

Janis rocks!!!

surprised by how much i loved this! what a jam

oh yeahhhhhhhh.

neil young fucking rules

i can't believe this works

god bless sir rod

yoooooou caaaaan't aaalways geet whaaat yooouu waaaahhhnnnnntttt.... buuut iff youuu triiiisometimes....

i second what the guy said about the hackey sack

JUDAS!!!!

a canonical album for me. listened to this so much c. 2011-2012. and it's still fantastic[ally depressing]

of course mystra knows it all, she's the god of magic

it's just a sheer classic, innit

LOVE dire straits. this isn't quite a 5 for me - making movies thru brothers in arms are the straight fives - but it comes pretty close. trop bien!

utterly french, in every aspect. and absolutely brilliant

this is a superb album. i love how strong the eno influence is. art rock in its purest form

This was fun. And cool to encounter Huey Morgan, who I only know from his Radio 6 show

found this a bit underwhelming. it's a two for the who

SUMMER OF 69!!!!!

this is an immense album. obviously roundabout is the biggie, but heart of the sunrise is such a phenomenal piece and the more experimental stuff in-between is short, sweet and interesting. saving my 5 for close to the edge, but it's all here.

afraid it's a no from me

entirely too frightening for the likes of me

too many slow songs... where r the bangers elvis

what a brilliant album!

yeah, this is the good stuff. packed full of absolute bangers

not what I was expecting at all. we will not be lovers & sweet thing both phenomenal tracks.

LOADS of fun

enjoyed; will never listen again

loved this weird, fun, cool, oddly prog-adjacent album. (seriously, there are bits that sound like van der graaf generator).

complex, unique, truly superb. continues to reward relistens, more than a decade than i first heard it.

first half of this slaps. sadly tails off a bit in the second half

really enjoyed this completely eclectic mix

awful lyrics, the most annoying singing voice you ever did hear, and every song goes on 1-2 minutes longer than it really should. a truly crap album.

completely silly but loads of fun

eternally underrated smiths album - but what wouldn't shrink in the shadow of meat is murder and queen is dead? more bangers than you remember!

enjoyed this far more than I thought I would. nice 1 m8!

even after 15 years or so, this still gets better with every listen

masterpiece

my least favourite of the phenomenal 'rubber soul -> abbey road' run, and still a straight up 5. what a band. ps yellow submarine rules

all the signs were this was gonna be awful... but no, it was awesome! fresh, biting, full of energy

top tier memory - dancing to "the promised land" with my dad at my wedding

being into this album comfortably the coolest thing i did as a teenager

the 90s, what a time. enjoyed this but not at all convinced it's an album you need to listen to before you die

strongly prefer making movies and love over gold, but hey, they're not on this list

5/5, difficult to imagine anything slapping harder

enjoyed it, but majors on the bits of melon collie i enjoyed least, and minors on the bits i liked most

this was very silly. perhaps even a bit too silly

paul 4 lyf

perhaps the ultimate in "Oh! It's that song!"

a knife by any other name would smell as sweet

maybe a bit of right-place-right-time, but loved this. what a brilliant surprise.

someone in the reviews says it should be illegal to rate this less than 4, and they're spot on

well, duh

pretty much the definition of a modern classic. played the hell out of this when it came out and it still sounds fresh. trop bien

a love supreme... a love supreme... a love supreme...

what else was it going to be?

even without the backstory, this would be stunning. wowza.

keep on chooglin

holds up soooo well

STOP PRESS!!! bjork in "actually good" shocker

love the funk edge

booooring... but nice

more like the crap lowes

after the GOAT rush

ZANE.... YOUR HACKBLOOD POWER IS GROWING... BUT YOU ARE NOT QUITE READY TO YIELD ITS FULL POWER.... YET

enjoyed the hard edge of the music, but man, those lyrics...

just straight bangers, innit

time takes a cigarette // puts it in your mouth...

consistently the worst fucker on this list. screw you elvis, see you later for your next 1-2/5

prog perfection. the title track is up there with the best of em.

played it during christmas dinner, it slapped.

kinda dull i'm afraid

the gap between the bangers and the snoozers is wide indeed

real good stuff

there's a dude in the comments complaining that 'where is my mind?' doesn't answer the question posed in the title. here are some other songs this guy would hate: can you feel the love tonight? don’t you want me? should i stay or should i go? how will i know? who let the dogs out? how deep is your love? wouldn’t it be nice? how soon is now?

worth a 5 for sledgehammer alone. WHAT a song.

enjoyable but unmemorable

one of those records where you can *hear* how influential it was, all these years later. blimey.

four elvis costellos jeremy? that's insane

the three great alabama icons is a *monumental* track. that, and the sheer scope and ambition, earn this a 4

supa dupa might be going a bit too far

truly dreadful stuff

as if the title track wasn't already the most y2k artefact imaginable, ali g appears in the video. a quarter century is a long time indeed.

tag a mate who's the mean old dogg catcha

we have aja at home

my running jam

it's no doctorin the tardis

really enjoyed this. they say talk talk were a big influence on hogarth-era marillion and boy can you see it

in fairness, the "get your tits out for the lads" bit is fucken hilarious

boy, this is smoooooooooooth

i don't like the cover art, i don't like the vibes, and crucially, i don't like the music

SUPER NINTENDO

genuine struggle listen

had my fist in my mouth at points, but ultimately, you have to salute the utter audacity

dull dull dull

there's a fine between chill and boring

some real bangers, but also a lot of filler, and it's way too long. that's enough for me indeed

a little self awareness goes a long way

this hit so well

hell yeah

low key banger

appetite for "skip track"

this is the good stuff. stoked for disintegration

so many bangers. such a vibe. and then, to top it all off, of montreal turn up! what an album.

viiiiiiictoria

a begrudging three

Paul 4 lyf

duh, what else?

holy synth

gut feeling, whadda banger

was ready to give this a 2 after the first couple of songs, but boy does it pick up

the GOAT

do I know what rhetorical means?!?

i will see you in the next life

some good tracks, a lot of filler

best thing you can say about this is that it's very short

what do you mean hairdresser on fire's B side only?!

i had a DSOTM patch on my bag at school. comfortably the coolest thing 17 year old me ever did

where's da bangers

supremely chill

i found this hugely disappointing. oh well!

one year on this site and ive thoroughly embraced the dan

that lou reed sample, man...

sometimes you gotta round up

didn't like it then, don't like it now

the musical equivalent of the silence from doctor who

it's the blues, man

the transition from in blue hawaii into good vibrations is almost - almost - as smooth as the insane transition from justice into kevin morby the DJ pulled off at our friends wedding
