London Calling
The ClashVery good, not too 40 of all time, as I thought but still top 100 all time for me with a bunch of classic songs and some of my favs like Spanish Bombs. It’s a 9/10

Haven’t listened to this in years, but is in my top 10 albums of all time. Update not top 10 of all time- but still a great record and in my top 50. I mean it’s a double album, but the flow and mood of the album make it 5 stars, not to mention the terrific songs.
Decent, kind of boring honestly.
Decent at points, some songs got me in the feels others were just annoying

Very emotional, reminds me a bit of Flower Boy and Blonde. Has a 60s/70s sound that is unique, will listen again. Almost a 8.5
Boring, just slow tempo songs with catchy guitar. The last 2 songs are at least listenable in an album setting- 1 star, if I gave Jimmy smith 2 stars, then this is much worse.
Closer to a 4 say a 7.8 with a few amazing songs. But should have included the other singles like "I Can't Explain" and "Anyway Anyhow Anywhere".
3 1/2. Good sound with interesting instrumentation through different genres such as blues and country. However some of the songs are just okay and it falls off in the 2nd half. Would listen again.
Ehh not as bad as I thought, might like it more than the second album just because it has more variety in sound. 7
I mean it is good, but I am not a fan of Badlands and a few of the other songs. Still I would say a 3.5, not a 4 star album although could be close.
good classic rock, keeps with one style but is enjoyable and has bangers. Probably closer to a 4 then a 3, but a high 3.5 rating is appropriate.
Good
Weird sounds and at times unlistenable
Interesting instrumental sound that was totally unique. But some of these songs suck and I never want to hear them again.
Some decent songs like "Liability", but take the pop radio format and just refine it in an album setting. I get why some people love it, but it isn't my type of music.
Very emotional, in fact too emotional but still a good album.
I knew this would be at least 4 stars, but this listen moved me more than before. The beginning is awesome, but the ending with Can’t Make A Sound, The Gondola Man really got to me this time. Some of the acoustic songs aren’t my favorite later on, but those electric ones really hit!!
Interesting sounds, that leads to the next big album, but the ending jam on the 2nd side isnt needed. I would listen again as it mixes psych, jazz and folk in a cool mixture.
Not good, but "Groove in the Heart" is a banger. 1.5 off that song alone
Damn good album in my top 100, probably favorite album of summer of 2019 next to IGOR
Good angsty energy with solid songs.
Very good, unique instrumentally and sounds a bit like Jimi Hendrix/Cream.
Ehh boring british pop,
Definitely could be higher on more listens, but at this point. there is something missing.
An album full of tension, but it gets released in the end in a satisfying way
Decent, songs will blend in with each other.
Not as bad, as I thought. Still like 2 and half stars, as it is pretty long.
Not my style of music, but sounds good and sure is innovative.
Amazing album, maybe not as good when I first listened to it, but still incredible.
Closer to 4.5/5 but still basically a flawless album, though do wish they included "Honky Tonk Women"
Decent album, not my kind of music, but nice and chill. I could use this music to fall Asleep.
Plesantly suprised, would be 4 stars if they didn't include a rap.
Not as good as first listen, but still a fun album. "Train Leaves Here This Morning" and "Most of Us are Sad" are really good deep tracks.
3.5, good album will listen again. Another solid one by Jack White
Its not bad, but I would say it is unsettling. - 7. Wish the pop/rock songs weren't all in the beginning, because the album gets a little too dark midway through. You don't need 4 ambient songs. Luckily ends with an ambient/pop mixture on the last song "The Secret Life of Arabia".
Another solid album, didn't blow me away, but will listen again.
Felt really long, but had some interesting moments. I liked the ending, 2.5
Long album, maybe too long with a odd story . But has a lot of great songs, would be much better if it was a single album.
a 3 1/2, pleasant listen that alludes mood and melancoly.
Has some great songs like Johnny Cage, not a fan of the ending.
Haven't listened to this since 2017-18. But a solid album, which shows ahead of its time mix of psych and blues, being that this is from 1966.
good album, enjoyable Alternative rock inspired by Nevermind, but takes it in an indie direction.
Too god damn long, but there are a few good songs like "Midnight"
okay. Its ambient soundscape definitely influenced albums I like such as Flower Boy and Igor, with how they use the synths.
An all timer, that can be annoying if listened to too much due to its grocery store like smooth jazz. But full of classics and amazing playing.
Oddly not bad, last song is weird with how it mentions some private things.
2.5- Kind of boring indie-alternative-southern rock, but there are some good songs. Although my family loves early KOL, so I may be being too harsh, based on my upbringing.
Used to be five stars, but still amazing. I especially love Halftime and Sittin in da Park with that awesome organ sample.
Amazing album, maybe a little too long and could be rearranged. But I don't know what I would cut.
Very good for the late 50s.
Just Boring, probably better on more listens.
Just some nice folk music. 2.5
Elevator blues and jazz for the first song, but everything else on the 1st side was pretty good. 2nd side falls off, but the last two songs are a nice subtle goodbye. Overall solid.
One of the best rap albums, does fall off a bit at the end.
Basically The Beatles doing every genre of music flawlessly. Should have ended the album with Hey Jude or Revolution (single version) but hey still 5 stars, 9.9/10
A 2.5, some good country, some stereotypical boring country. Would listen again.
A Glam and Prog Pop mix. Odd vocals, but is catchy. Give it 4 stars, as it surprised me.
Uncontrollable Urge is good, but this sounds like the B52's and early The Clash had a baby for better or worse. Not my ideal music, but not terrible. 2.5
