Homework
Daft Punki like daft punk, a lot actually. not as good as discovery but most things are also worse than discovery so...
i like daft punk, a lot actually. not as good as discovery but most things are also worse than discovery so...
eminem is really corny now because he made the worst albums ever, but if he only released this and a few others he would be in the goat conversation
way way way better than i thought. i was prepared for the worst album of my life. had a very nice groove to it
not as good as the last temptations album, but still a 4
i never listened to this album all the way but jack white is pretty cool. the fact that white stripes are a duo is pretty crazy ngl. so far im liking it, very varied sound, but it still feels like a cohesive project. generally what i expect from the white stripes tho. almost reminds me of green day sometimes wit the percussion and certain riffs. final thoughts- its good i liked it, nothing special but generally enjoyable and clearly influential for garage rock
insanely deep and rich compositions. i like it, not as much as songs in the key of life, but i dont like most things as much as songs in the key of life. stevie is lowk the goat, his music is truly beautiful, something that can be appreciated by pretty much everyone
easy listening, far too boring for my taste. i think its super inoffensive, generic rock music, nothing wrong with it, its just really bland.
i bet people who love this album think the matrix is the best movie of all time. it was overall ok, pretty good at points and absolutely horrible at others. there are glimpses of things that i like, but the songs are all at least 2 minutes too long. the beats are also a bit clean for my taste, i wish it was more abrasive overall.
da blues
love how disjointed and loud this record is, definitely my preferred sound over something like the rem album which is mainly problematic to me because its just way too clean
i like daft punk, a lot actually. not as good as discovery but most things are also worse than discovery so...
better than i expected kinda chill, not creative. id rather listen to sublime
more like 4.5, love the cocteau twins already, but not as good as heaven or las vegas
good country covers
first album where i straight up skipped through the last tracks. actually so terrible i thought it would eventually pick up, but its so drab and boring, like what situation is this music made for, i truly cant imagine ever enjoying it.
more hardcore i like it, not perfect though, has a very aged and edgy sound.
4.5 quite liked it, a little bit edgy, a little bit noisy, my typa music. fuck marilyn manson tho fr
lit
long songs, very clean but i like it enough. so british its insane
actually pretty enjoyable and has some interesting ideas, but its really nothing special i think its fine for a first listen but id never come back to it
kinda littington
rock n roll at its most basic. all the songs were too long
eminem is really corny now because he made the worst albums ever, but if he only released this and a few others he would be in the goat conversation
like showtunes, not my thing
is ok, not really impressed nor offended. its just rock n roll again. i think whoever made this list likes rock music a lot, and not even like experimental rock just straight up rock music
very listenable, pretty enjoyable actually. genuinely no problems. gentle on my mind (the og) is such a good song, and this cover is decent fs
actually insane production by kanye and really incredible flows and lyrics. genuinely goated
lowk the beatles but worse. still kinda littington tho
actually unbelievably indifferent towards this. its like the flavor of water for my music taste
when the rock is psych i literally dont know what else to say
i luv the peppers but they do have better albums overall. i like the stuff before this album much more
very good love led zeppelin
i dont really understand the hate i was seeing from other reviewers. i wouldnt listen to this every day but i found this to be really awesome and very interesting
winning the mid off with another 60s rock except now its country
i love san pedro california and i love the minutemen
4 songs 53 minutes. actually goated. this is what i was looking for when starting this project
my favorite so far of the "clean" rock category.
busting album cover fr i luv new order joy division shouldnt even exist
hmmmmm a bit weird but entirely inoffensive, at least inoffensive sound wise. lyrically it is def offensive but i lowk fw dat
borrrrriiiiiinnnnnggggg
not my thing but i can respect it at least
like the strokes but less interesting overall. pretty good but not really elite like mr casablancas
way way way better than i thought. i was prepared for the worst album of my life. had a very nice groove to it
this is losing the mid off because its slightly worse than mid. genuinely so so boring and bland
4.5 not 4. felt like simon and garfunkel which is a positive.
absolutely fine. alex turner is super talented, and i think this album is entirely unremarkable (which isnt a bad thing)
not my favorite my bloody valentine album, but that doesnt mean it isnt almost perfect as well. loveless is probably my favorite album ever, and this doesnt live up to it, but shoegaze is still shoegaze at the end of the day and this is a shining example of the genre
funky asf (as funk)
good jazzy record, probably wont come back to it
not as good as the last temptations album, but still a 4
i think jazz music is pretty awesome, but unfortunately i find it very difficult to approach. less made up of songs and more just background noise, but its really good background noise
not super impactful to me. i actually didnt expect this sound, but i think its not completely what im looking for. felt quite dated in my opinion
def the biggest surprise for me so far, i really did not expect to like this based on the genres, but i found it to be quite beautiful and strangely similar to a lot of the more dreamy music i tend to listen to on occasion.
im really not a huge queen fan at the end of the day, and this basically amplified all the parts of queen that i dislike. its not that i dont get what its going for, i just dislike it.
honestly didnt know i was a blues fan. this is awesome
a little disappointed here, i know pavement and i know they make music in a style that i like, but this album didnt really strike me as anything special. this isnt to say its bad, it just isnt what i expected
stick to the smiths bro, i dont think this johnny marr-less life is for you. also the fact that morissey would release a song called "i am hated for loving" is hilarious
holy bassline. unfortunately this is not the peak of michael jackson, and he has a few albums i prefer. not to say this is bad (lol), but it isnt a track for track perfect album like thriller or off the wall is for me.
a contender for one of the most forgettable things on this list, i would never listen to any of these songs again, and since i think i need to be more forgiving with 5s and harsher with 1s, congrats to this album for getting a 1.
very very awesome. one of the albums i knew about prior to starting this project, and i didnt know what to expect. i always heard it talked about as an indie head record. so trip hop wasnt exactly what i was ready for, but every track had something special. also fantastic album art
a good representation of a genre that i dont find myself seeking out.
Utterly fascinating. What is this, like prog-hop? I'm not entirely sure, and I can't say I'd listen to any of the tracks isolated, but the actual album is just so well made and truly a feat of musicality and production. I feel like I'm not smart enough to get it, but I certainly wasn't suffering.
it is exactly what people say about it. i was ready to hit a peter griffin godfather moment, but nah it really is fantastic. i still dont agree with apple musics placement of it on their list, but it isnt unfounded. this record is front to back fantastic in production, vocals, and storytelling.
Holy dogshit. This is easily the worst album I've heard so far.
i happened to listen to this album off a recommendation from a youtube channel that i like before i drew it from this project. when i first listened to it, i gave it 4 stars on rym. i thought it was simple and good, but nothing that was extraordinary. since i listened to pink moon, i havent been able to stop thinking about it. there is something extraordinary about it. it is so simple, so stripped back, so short, but its just beautiful. incredible instrumentation and vocals and nothing else. a perfect example of the term stripped back.
love me some willie nelson. on first listen i reckon i liked this more than red headed stranger, but i need to relisten to both. either way, this was lovely and very easy to listen to.
why she sound like lana del rey. anyway maps is the only song id heard off this album and i kinda see why.
very likely my favorite album by michael. i grew up with this album, and it really is just so well produced, with timeless instrumentation and songwriting that'll hit now and in like 100 years.
love prince, i think this album is very good, but not his best. good hits, but not all of it is my favorite
i really dont like reggae. i get it, i understand what it is, but i just dont enjoy listening to it. it drags, the melodies arent unique from song to song (at least to me), and the vocals are overwhelming in an often unpleasant way. maybe if i wasnt allergic to weed id feel different, but as of now i cant find any true reggae that i like.
i used to not like radiohead. i found them boring, whiny, and droning. i think i may have been stupid, but i wasnt wrong. they whiny and droning, but radiohead is anything but boring. their music is truly special. this album, while not my favorite (frankly its not even in my top 4 radiohead projects) is still incredible for its time. its so futuristic and beautiful. it says something that an album that barely cracks the top 5 of its respective artists discography is still a 5 star record.
mmmm not for me. sanitized and clean, nothing to grasp onto.
most likely not my favorite outkast project. the higs are incredible, and there are no low lows, but it isnt one id come back to as a project anytime soon. outkast is one of those musical projects that deserves to be on this list, and if anything i feel that they and the type of rap they represent is underrepresented overall. i really liked it, but it doesnt crack my favorite favorites.
its like if the beatles were american and not as good. the problem with music like this is that the beatles exist, and they did it already. there is no beatles-esque music that surpasses the beatles. that said, this isnt bad at all, just not incredible, i bobbed my head a little.
too soft for my taste. more watered down punk, rather than an original feeling style. i just would rather listen to other post punk/punk artists that have a more distinct or generally harder sound.
yea, i mean this is obviously awesome. not a hit parade by any means, nor is it important enough in my opinion to warrant 5 stars. a strong example of its genre, but certainly not gods gift to music
I still don't like reggae, but this was ok compared to the last Bob Marley album I heard.
Super easy to listen to. I liked it, but not a ton.
This feels like the music that would be playing in the background while john wick kills a bunch of people. It's ok, not something that left a particular impact.
Such a strange inclusion. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it. It's just strange that it's here. Truly genre defining, I couldn't quite put my finger on what it was this album was meant to be, but that is by no means negative.
What if the Home Depot commercial music was album length?
Very good, but I wasn't stunned. Obvious respect to the queen though.
super adequate record. not gonna act like this changed my life, but it was certainly an easy listen.
mgmt is, in my opinion, the best band of all time. not necessarily my favorite, that changes day to day, but i think they are the best. this gives off the vibe of mgmt is select music, and is all in all a really well made album that has a nice groove, theme, and feel. i really did enjoy this, but i found some tracks to be more forgettable and less exciting than i wanted. overall still very good.
The aesthetic of KISS always tricked me into thinking they were a much heavier band then they really are. Frankly, this is my admission to not really liking glam rock/glam metal, its just not as good as rock or metal. Honestly, I wish KISS' music was as hard as their looks would have you assume. Unfortunately, this wasn't for me, and I don't see myself coming back to any tracks any time soon.
absolutely uninteresting save for the killing moon.
A little proggy for my taste, and there are like 10 songs ever that have any business being over 10 minutes long, and this album does not contain one. That said, I think the highs are very high and the lows are extremely forgettable. Good memories and everything else being forgotten is a recipe for an album that can be remembered pretty favorably, so that's good.
A lot going on here. Almost too much. I wouldn't really call it bad, just not important. And that's like the whole point.
i am a massive punk fan. this type of grimy, filthy, and typically offensive (at least to some listeners) music is what keeps my faith in music as an art form. being able to just say whatever over simple riffs hits the same way that roadside graffiti hits for me. a simple statement that says "fuck the mainstream" and exists for the sake of creation. id love to see more punk as i keep doing this project.
big band big rating
So ambient that there was nothing to enjoy, literally just background
Kinda like if The Smiths were not good
me personally, i like the beastie boys
I really love rap. My biggest regret on this project thus far is giving Stankonia 4 stars when it clearly deserved 5, and I will not let another hip hop masterpiece go by without its rightfully deserved 5 stars. This is one of those albums that makes the rounds in the music nerd subculture as a must listen, and rightfully so. Well produced, smooth, well written, and influential for essentially every other hip hop artist that followed. Incredible.
Man, it really is just the Beatles but worse, which I find to be a trend with these sixties releases. Totally fine, just not the Beatles. Like, I could just listen to the Beatles.
Frankly exhausting. I don't know if I get it, as this came across as absurdly long winded, unoriginal, and boring. Just because something is live doesn't mean it's good or important.
Literally just a cover album. Can't rate it particularly high. Fortunately, I know that the Stones got a lot more coming, so this certainly isn't the end.
I liked this enough. Inoffensive at the very least. I don't think I'll return to most of it, but the parts that are good are quite good, and the album's biggest crime is its length.
As a (terrible) pianist, this really blows my cork off. It's unbelievable to be able to improvise piano music this good for this long on this bad of a piano in front of this many people. Jazz is a bit of a misleading genre tag for this album (I'd say it's closer to classical), but the improvisational style and chord choices clearly call to the strengths of jazz music. Definitely one of the albums you should listen to before you die if not for the incredibly playing, then for the story.
when im in a being listenable competition and this is my opponent:
ive heard worse, but a pink floyd cover is wild. almost respectably insane, but the actual album is too disco for my taste. didn't find much to come back to or save here.
Holy smokes, I've been feeling miserable lately so this hits real hard. Not my favorite by him, but that doesn't mean it isn't still fantastic. I've been real sad and gloomy, and this is the best and worst soundtrack one could ask for when it comes to living in a melancholic void.
Just like not good really. Uninteresting.
Aw man I mean this just isn't music that aged well, at least not for me. There's some fun to be had, but really it just isn't anything special. Reminds me of old rock radio, and I think that's where it belongs.
Exceedingly middling, save for My Ever Changing Moods. Entirely inoffensive and entirely bland.
Very good album. Not one I have ever actually listened all the way through, so being able to shows how great this album really is. Super strong sound and energy.
Totally listenable, no highlights. Won't return.
All too samey. An unfortunate disappointment, not even bad, just disappointing. I was expecting Arctic Monkeys 2, but instead got generic dance punk with no differences between tracks. Take Me Out is beast still.
Started strong, became unironically unlistenable as it moved along.
This just isn't hard. Like it doesn't go hard.
Well, this is another obvious one. Not my favorite Kanye album, but one that I find myself coming back to a lot. Hit after hit.
Pretty bad
Not my favorite Dylan by any means, but Dylan is Dylan after all.
Really awesome. Solid songwriting and exceedingly easy to listen to. The Beach Boys are a project that never fully disappoint. They are also responsible for making the only christmas song that doesn't annoy the fuck outta me so extra points there.
Idk man, Joy Division just isn't that great of a band. They aren't bad, they just aren't great. It's just not impressive. Frankly, the album cover is better than the music.
Not profound, some other reviews are lowk trolling.
Pretty solid. Unsurprising that Pharrell is goated.
