liked the quick simplicity as opposed to the longer, more complex work i've heard in other beatles projects.
really a 7, but can't do half-stars.
this really does not sound like a rock album from 1966
just jam after jam after jam
one of those albums that's amazing on its own, but the story behind its creation magnifies it multitudes higher. the jazz quartet sells that deathly sound so well. seriously something magical
it's like fine
lot of people reviewing this album on this website are too closed-minded to give any rap record a fair shake.
this album manages to blend elements of disco, soul, jazz, and funk into a near-homogenous mix, which is worthy of praise. unfortunately, it does this with very basic forms of each ingredient, creating a somewhat bland product - though still one i'll probably come back to every so often.
the first song sounds like ford truck month. the rest is pretty cool
funky to the max
when i saw this was my album of the day i thought 'YESSSSSSSSSS' because it is so good
more like the sleep, the snooze, and the naptime. no oxford comma so bonus negative points
the best part of this album is at the beginning when they sample a guitar riff from a competent band
this album reminds me of branson, missouri in the sense that it's all style, no substance, kind of annoying, and gives me a headache.
funky wunky awesome possum
well i get why people call him one of the greatest of all time now
i feel like i should explore more dance / tech house albums, i like basically all the ones i've heard, this one included
who knew a pop star and the neptunes could make something good? (sarcasm)
this album is pretty good but it's not helping the case of the '60s-80s classic rock-esque album' the guy who made this list was suffering from
this album sounds like some people freaking out
yep i get it
is anyone else getting the vibe that this guy is a little off his rocker?
not the flawless piece of art some believe it to be but regardless a landmark for radiohead's - and music's - history.
i messed with the poppy vibe but this thing is just too long
YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
perfectly fine
this is one of the 5 albums i specifically wanted. jigsaw falling into place is one of the best songs i've ever heard, weird fishes / arpeggi too. easiest 5 stars so far
i am trying so hard to notice the difference between the iggy and bowie mixes. i think i barely prefer the iggy mix
okay on relisten i get why people call this better than in rainbows
did they ever try making a bad jazz album?
yung lean and some girl talk-sing over a maximum of three instruments usually made by a computer
kinda wanted this one to end
nothing special but nothing bad
you guys are not indian. go back to making british music
really wanted to give this one a higher score, but it just didn't do it all that much for me :/
heard the title track, or at least some of it, before, but never gave the rest of this a listen. cannot believe i was missing out. this album is pretty fantastic for the most part, but there is a metal warbling on back in our minds that i can't decide if i tolerate or despise, and gross farting noises on wars of armageddon. why did they do that?
moody, groovy, and cool. maybe these goths know what they're doing!
cannot believe i'm giving this a 5 but on relisten it really is THAT good
this album sounds kinda like this guy wishes he was what neil young is, but that being said, this isn't nearly as bad as the other reviews made it out to be.
tad boring, this one
oh yeah yeah oh yeah yeah this was awesome
not sure why he destroyed my ears on the first track but the rest was pretty swanky
like the music, love the cover
this website has made me realize i prefer blonde on blonde but that is not a knock on this album at all
loved the emotional singing and theatrical production
british people should stop trying to be sexy. it ain't gonna work
more like the very annoyings
atmospheric & easy to listen to. doesn't blow me away, but not really much bad to say about it.
great rock for the sixties
an album i've heard countless times, an artist that i did and do regard as my all-time favorite, a collection of songs i could never get enough of. the easiest 5 so far.
and be a simpllllleeeee kind of mannnnn
found this pretty enthralling. i understand the criticism towards the constant vibrato, but this album had a somber atmosphere with very unique, high-quality production.
most of it - okay! the song helicopter - amazing!
was going to make a silly review but this one just didn't strike me much. "40" is a great song though!
might be the coldest white boy to ever live
bad case of indie singer voice but very powerful
very calming and well-produced
this rocks
booooooooring also fire whoever did the mixing on this
i like jazz :)
more like kate awesome
when you ask AI to make a punk album and it just can't do that real punk edge
of the multitudes of rap albums i've heard at this point in my life, this is one of the ones i like the least
guy who is definitely not trying really hard to be cool
mid-century soul is awesome
love when you're really rocking with an album on this list and then you get to that popular song you didn't realize was on it
it's fine
ooooooooookay maybe it's great
really surprised how great this was
so loooooooooong
every tribe album just makes you feel groovy. awesome
realized while listening i accidentally listened to the deluxe edition which is another ~20 minutes. luckily the extra songs really represent how insane i felt like i was going for having to listen to this for an hour
he said WHAT?
these dudes are awesome
i already own this album on vinyl. this is probably what it feels like when someone reminds you that you have a really good sandwich in the fridge that you then get to indulge in
maybe dial it back on kissing your teacher
man this was awesome. really unexpected
appreciated the jazzy hits on this. not really what i expected, but no complaints here
classic rock classic rockin'
this album was pretty enjoyable but why did they say that line on the last song
hey this was pretty great
how is this album cover more 2005 than his 2005 album
it's alright
these guys are much too freaky
this really absolutely blew me away
yeah elton john is awesome, not sure what else there is to say
just pure sound. i mean really a good hour and a half of audio playing in my ears
had to use the restroom while listening so some of the last seconds of this album were overrun by the sound of a urinal flushing. i have to believe this is what any nu-metal band would want
just punk. just the sound of punk. nothing more, nothing less
stevie wonder is a man of magic
i freak with it
i like neil young so this was pretty good
t. rex??? ahhhhhhhh scary! nah i'm just playing around. fun glam rock!
maybe cool it with the seed talk
this is one of the two albums i would say qualifies as the greatest album i've ever heard. there are at least a couple dozen i like more than it, to be sure, but almost nothing compares to the depth you'll find in the lyrics, the instrumentation, the theming, etc. - truly grateful to be alive at the same time as this
dancealicious
once again the curse of not having the original release on streaming and plaguing me with unneeded bonus tracks
a bit boring sadly
maybe this one caught me at a bad time, but i just don't care about it at all. i also realized i got caught with ANOTHER instance of non-disclosed bonus tracks, which sours the experience just a tad bit more
great drums great soul
holy mackerel
unbelievable levels of freak happening on this one
pretty good, great job brits
this actually sounded pretty good instrumentally but unfortunately i hate pedophilia
i prefer the studio versions of all the nirvana songs, but it's still a great performance and given this album's context in kurt's/nirvana's story overall i certainly understand why it's here
great job led zeppelins
really a bit long but pretty enjoyable
an unexpectedly pleasant listen! i'll certainly be returning to this
man hybrid theory gets a five sure whatever
really beautiful
my goodness. rest in peace amy
unfortunately not the biggest fan of this one overall, but DLZ is still fantastic
wanted to rate this lower for being so difficult to find the proper track order for, but, unfortunately, it was really good
absolute heater
great work
rest in peace mister bowie
pretty dope power metal
overall just fine, but the last couple songs in particular were great
pretty standard beatles imo
better than the last r.e.m. album i heard, that's for sure
unparalleled swag mr. mayfield
i got this and was over the moon when i recognized the isley brother's sample in 'a year and a day' from kendrick lamar using it on his song 'i'. what a great birthday album
i didn't necessarily dislike my time with this, but i certainly did not like most of it, either
starts off pretty strong, ends off pretty strong, weird reggae in the middle
this album kind of sounds like something your captors would play on repeat as psychological torture because it gets stuck in your head - which means, on first listen, it's pretty catchy!
an epic, in the truest sense of the word. very long, but very worth it. fantastic.
a great album by one of the greats
held my attention the entire time, which is a compliment given its length. loved those RZA beats. a really solid release!
say what you want about the great songwriting - this thing is hard to listen to on a literal level. his voice isn't the best, and the simple instrumentals that could help under different vocals just don't suit him well.
i mean, it's good piano, but at over an hour, i want more than just piano
hey, this was really good!
short and sweet and lovely
changes from heartfelt and personal to exceedingly abrasive on a dime
was sure glad when that ended
black sabbath is one of the artists this list has really helped me get into the most
yeah i mean pretty good
real enjoyable
whatever
surprisingly, white guys with whiny voices make great albums way more than you would expect
not too shabby mr. king
man is this thing good
one of those albums that makes you think, 'maybe there aren't 1001 albums worth listening to'
a little too quirky at times, but overall a fine listen
super energetic the whole way through
in my opinion, the most overrated ye album. it's too long (see: runaway second half (sorry!), hell of a life, blame game), and the entire thing has this low-fidelity, grainy rock sound on it in service of the maximalist theming. that being said, it's still pretty damn fantastic, and absolutely deserves its spot on this list. also, see me know is one of ye's best bonus tracks - that asphalt line kills me every time.
y'know what, tom petty? hell yeah.
surprisingly, i liked this one more than i did the first time i heard it
i like christmas music :)
i love tears for fears!!!
WOW was this good
this one proves why he's called the boss
fair bit of good music from the beatles
jazzy
hey, not bad!
fine, but nothing that really stood out to me.
a little surprising - and disappointing - how at only ~39 minutes, this still felt like it dragged a little.
held my attention, but outside of a couple tracks, didn't really do much else.
stellar! never heard a joni mitchell album in full before, and really glad this was my introduction.
nice one mr. king
can't say i expected her to be english!
the trumpets on 'so in love' were phenomenal
just fine
it's probably been said a thousand times but looking at this guy you would never guess he has the voice he does. love you to death neil young
for being dedicated to the victims of the september 11th attacks, this is a deeply unserious album.
title is apt - jazz is cool, miles davis is cool, this album is cool.
maybe i'm just not as cut out for funk as i thought i was.
what a jam, through and through.
this guy was really, truly from another planet
what a pioneer, beautiful and gentle songwriting throughout.
i've always felt a little out of place among my peers for not thinking this album is as good as others do. it's still great, don't get me wrong, but i find it a bit padded out and somewhat boring on some tracks. still, it showcases a ton of talent, and sing about me, i'm dying of thirst is still one of kendrick lamar's best songs, even all these years later.
infectious. uses jazz motifs in meaningful ways and knows how to create build up and pay it off well. loved it since the first time i heard it.
freakin' sweet!
if you ever think you'll never amount to anything musically, always come back and remember that multiple people approved the intro track on this album, so you could always be doing worse.
this is kind of like black country, new road for 80s office workers
i like talking heads
a little long but pretty good!
swanky
major fan of this one
very punk, loved it
man these guys had a lot of red 40 before making this album. just running all over the place
this website is giving me a great appreciation for music farther before my time than i usually listen to
i like folk music :)
a little repetitive in its overall sound at times, but still moderately enjoyable
'waaah! waaah! i don't like his voice!' you gotta grow up, man
held my attention, if by 'held my attention' i mean 'i wasn't annoyed as it played in the background'
the best rap album of all time. unparalleled.
in a word: awesome
what a visionary
i loved this one dearly, and truly was sad when it was over. wish it was much longer
another classic instance of 'hey, this is pretty good!' followed by that one popular song that shows you why this album is in the list.
just monumental. how do you make an album with so many certified hits?
just fantastic. i still maintain that 'it was a good day' has potentially the best beat in rap history.
y'know, i thought i would hate the length (and how difficult it was to find 'the' version of this album - eventually i gave up and just listened to the 116-minute version), but i still thought it was pretty solid the whole way through.
didn't realize until i got ready to listen to this that roundabout was not only on this album, but was the first song
i have to say, standing up at my desk while listening to this made me dance quite a bit more than i usually feel inclined to.
sure could've gone without hearing that ever
in terms of cover and title, one of the best ever. in terms of music, really freakin' awesome
this album sounds like it was recorded in the toy box killer's trailer. it did manage to win me over a little in the second half - not much, but enough.
looked up the summary of this one on wikipedia while listened since i knew most pink floyd albums have a good concept behind them. this one did not disappoint, and knowing the concept certainly helped! i would likely give this a 5 on a relisten.
it's pretty clear that maps is the standout here, but even outside of that, you could do a lot worse - even if you could also do a good bit better.
It certainly wasn't bad, but, unfortunately, I just know I won't be returning to this very often
was it my bias for chill electronic music that caused me to enjoy this album more than the average person? maybe, but i still loved it
you hate to hear that an album was made during a mental lapse, but why do they always sound so good?
slow, melancholy, awesome!
this site has really opened my eyes to old-school hip-hop, which i already thought i enjoyed
no complaints here. fantastic.
i sure liked this more than their last one i heard on this website!
i enjoyed myself throughout the runtime and didn't get bored. sometimes, that's high enough praise.
what's with the ventriloquist dolls?
i'm not sure if it's crazier that this guy died because he was shot in the chest by his own father or that in his relatively short time on this earth he was able to release this much awesome music
if it was 1979 and i heard this freak's voice singing about being on the highway to hell, i would understand why people caused the satanic panic
my day was indeed a little more beautiful for having listened to this
just solid all around, love that distinct voice. i actually heard this album for the first time over two years ago, but in all that time since i didn't realize that track 8 ('kiss me on my neck') didn't download with the rest of the album, so that was a nice surprise. orange moon is an all-time r&b song!
loved the cover and loved the songs just as much!
this list screams at me 'YOU WILL LEARN TO LOVE ALL SUBGENRES OF BRITISH ROCK', and luckily sometimes they are right.
i've heard this work so many times front to back i have yet to finish it as i'm writing this review. this is quite possibly the best album that has ever been released in the recorded history of the world.
my review is both connotations of the following sentence: fine r&b
this one flew by
not really an album i would say you absolutely have to hear before you die
so much beatles on this here website
i guess
verrry solid ms. baez
with an album this contentious, the REAL controversial take is giving it the 3/5 it deserves
