Y’all complain about Dwight Yoakam’s vocals but give Thom Yorke a 5 every time he whines over monotone guitar riffs. This at least has a variety of instruments that don’t all sound the same. It’s a 5 to make up for the haters.

Incredible rock opera. Forgot how much I liked this album on my first listen
I enjoyed it slightly more than the first time I listened. Unfortunately, my main complaint that it was too repetitive is still there. There’s a ton of energy on this record, but I’d rather just listen to The Stooges or The Clash.
One of the best albums of the 21st century
One of my favorite albums of all time.

Terrible
Could not finish this one
Wtf is this torture music
This sounds like it was recorded using a tin can.
This album is just honestly way too long. With that being said, it inspired most of my favorite musicians (Eric Church, Turnpike Troubadours, Jason Isbell, and many others in the country and Americana scene).
Prince fucked my ear for 1 hour and 10 minutes. The first half of this album is amazing and then it drags towards the end.
Hopefully I go to heaven, but if not this is the album the devil will use to torture me.
This album is evidence that the majority going through this challenge like dad rock only. These drums are thumping and the guitars are blaring. It’s fucking weird, but it’s a solid rock and roll album.
Every song kind of sounds the same and the vocals get grating after a while. Not the worst music I’ve heard, but definitely generic.
Today I learned a drum can make monkey noises.
It was indeed not a fantastic day because the generator gave me this abomination to listen to today.
I can see why people don’t like this album…. But this is some of the best guitar playing on this entire list…. White noise? Really?
I’m so distracted by the lack of melodies and weak singing that it’s hard to find the great songwriting everyone is here for
It’s good at what it does, but it sounds like music played in the background of an aquarium.
These songs meander and feel like they go on forever.
This album is a two pack of ass
Do you have to be British to appreciate this album?
For such an amazing singer and the fact this is a soul record, it’s really devoid of any soul.
Just what I wanted! A 69 song album with a run time of 2:30 hours of songs that all sound the same!
Didn’t do a whole lot for me. The vocals grew on me a marginal amount and the music behind it was good enough to be productive listening to it as background music.
Not the worst thing I’ve ever listened to, but nothing I care to revisit either.
Y’all complain about Dwight Yoakam’s vocals but give Thom Yorke a 5 every time he whines over monotone guitar riffs. This at least has a variety of instruments that don’t all sound the same. It’s a 5 to make up for the haters.
This is what Sgt. Peppers would sound like if it was made in the 2000s by far less talented musicians.
Sometimes during this journey you just have to give a 1 and move on with your life.
A lot of the music here is solid. I’m just not a fan of the vocals
I’m obviously missing something here.
Not awful, but will not go out of my way to listen again
Do you like listening to the same song over and over again, because if so, I sure do have a suggestion for you!
Woah did I just hear the opening riff of Flying Whales in Abstieg and Zerfall? Anyways…. Now I’m listening to Gojira instead of this and enjoying my time more.
I listened. Sounds were made.
Not sure what to make of this. Sounds like a Captain Beefheart parody most of the time.
Ah yes, an album that has the most annoying noises ever created…. And yet somehow it’s on this list
Any album that has a song as good as Train in Vain is a 5 in my book.
If this album was more entertaining, I’d start a rumor that this is actually a Coldplay album. But no one here in America cares about or likes this type of music, and I’ll forget about this in music in 15 minutes anyways.
After listening to several post Kid A Radiohead albums from this project, I’ve learned that Yorke’s vocals annoy me when the music isn’t heavily guitar based.
My favorite modern artists like Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childers, Turnpike Troubadours, Jason Isbell, and many many others wouldn’t be making music without this album. It’s perfect.
A little too slow for my tastes…. But still a very strong country album.
The guitar tones and drumming are perfect on this album.
There’s a bunch of ideas here, and none of them hit well. This is a full album of Paul McCartney joke songs and the Wiki says they were inspired by his drum set… so that checks out.
This 1000% deserves to be heard. That doesn’t mean I liked it.
Revelation is a damn 20 minute banger.
This album did nothing to get rid of my dislike for Genesis.
I feel like I’m being too harsh giving this a 1, but there’s a few factors. The singing is distracting from any good songwriting that may be here. The music behind this is quite boring and does not add to any songwriting. In fact, it takes more a way. Finally, this is so boring that I kept checking how many songs were left when it’s only a 36 minute album.
This album starts out pretty rough. Seems like Nick Cave was trying too hard on some of these vocals. Then mid-way through Nick Cave does a great job of creating the ominous gothic style he is so great at. Let Love In is a better album though.
This album really overstayed its welcome. Too long and nothing interesting here.
I would have given this a 3, but the hippie bullshit on the last three songs pissed me off.
An extra point for being 16 minutes long
Cohen is a storyteller, lyricist, and poet. Not a singer and honestly, not even a proficient musician. All of this being said, the beauty of his words shine throughout this album.
I just do not see how Drum and Bass belongs on this list. Maybe I’m just ignorant… but definitely seems like one of the few genres in this list that takes the least amount of talent to make.
Some hippie bullshit
Very average, but nothing extremely wrong with it.
It was fine. Felt surprisingly quick for a 59 minute album. It became background noise as I was tidying up…. And many others have said the same which sums up its worthiness to be on this list.
“This is a Bad” on track 4 accurately describes this album. At its best, which is the beginning of every track, it sounds like video game menu music. Then these drums kick in and they do absolutely nothing for you because the music behind it is soulless. If someone told me this was created by AI, I’d damn near believe them. Timeless piece of a company’s holding music or a hotel’s elevator music.
Worth listening to for any Motorhead fan to hear the beginning of Lemmy. Unlike any Motorhead song though, these are not straight to the point. It’s filled with 8 minute jams with Lemmys playing and synths that are outer worldly. Not bad by any means, but it’s extremely long and all of disc 1 sounds similar.
This is truly atrocious. The most aggressive British guy singing like he’s a drunk man on a cruise about being bricked up over disco beats. How the fuck did people like this at the time?
This guy is one of the best singers I’ve ever heard… was the original king of soul… is in the Rock Hall of Fame and somehow is still criminally underrated. The last three songs aren’t as strong as the beginning of the album, but it’s still damn good 60’s soul music.
Listening to an angry Slovenian man yell “Life is Life” in my ears are the moments I started going this list for
This album was heading straight towards a 5 and then it fell off hard after King of New York. Still a fun listen overall.
There’s an amazing album in here somewhere… but two hours of Billy Corgan is just too much
Not bad by any means, but not something I’ll revisit most likely. Southeastern by Jason Isbell is more of my vibe for sad singer/songwriter songs.
Who cares if this is dad rock. It still fucks.
Track seven and I can’t take this shit anymore. I’ll never understand why people love this band so much.
Maybe the most peaceful album I’ve ever listened to
There are so many incredible songs in here. Fun moments like Jungle… but it does become tedious at times.
Her singing talent is undeniable on this album. But you have to get past mid 2000’s R&B and pop production and some rough tracks like “Thank You (Dedication to the Fans….) which comes across as pretentious ego stroking, even though I don’t think that was the point and “Nasty Naughty Boy” which features immature moaning on the song. 2.5
I had a good time with this. Yes it’s dated, but it’s a damn good time too
There’s some amazing guitar work on this album. The vocals were a bit too harsh for me though.
The music behind the jackass was good.
Fantastic soul and funk record.
Perfect album
Average, but not bad. I can see how a new wave album released in 1979 is extremely influential.
An attack on my ears
I will never not give the Nashville A team at least 4 stars.
The audio equivalent of ordering jerk chicken but receiving chicken seasoned with only salt and pepper.
I enjoyed this. Would have liked to have rocked out a little more, but these are very proficient musicians.
If you’ve heard even one of Coldplay’s biggest hits, you’ve heard everything this album has to offer
It’s Otis Blue….
