The Number Of The Beast
Iron MaidenAbsolute classic, essential listening for any metal fan.

Surprisingly good album. Only knew of Psycho Killer before I listened to it but will definitely be delving into their back catalogue now.
One of the most important albums of all time. They pack more into a half hour then most bands could do with double the time.
Really enjoyed this album. R.E.M are a band where I know the hits but have never delved into their back catalogue l. After listening to this I will be rectifying that.
Not my type of thing but a few tracks I liked. Most likely will never listen to again tbh.
An all time album but personally there is a significant drop off after Stairway. Granted it is hard to follow one of the greatest songs ever written but my interest did start to wane.
A good listen, I couldn’t see myself ever listening to an individual track from it. It needs to be listened to as a full album but I will be listening to it again.
An outstanding album. Another artist where I know the hits but haven’t delved into the albums but I look forward to listening to a lot more Bowie.
I did not like this album at all. Found it unbelievably dull. I get the backstory behind it and I imagine if u were going through something similar this would really connect with you but I found it a real slog to get through.
Haven’t listened to it in full for a while so was nice to have an excuse. I absolutely love this album. Been a massive Beatles fan for as long as I can remember and George has always been my favourite. This is him at his absolute finest, Lennon and McCartney may be more celebrated as part of the band and as solo artists but imo nothing they wrote as solo artists even comes close to this.
Not my sort of thing usually but there is some good tunes on here. Obviously Beautiful is a classic and Fighter is actually a bit of a banger. It did drag a tad towards the end though. I don’t get the reviews giving one star purely because it’s a pop album, surely if you’re going through this list you know there’s gonna be music out of your usual comfort zone. Yes I’m only giving this two stars but I went in willing to give it a fair go.
I was really late getting into NIN to the point where I had heard the Jonny Cash version of Hurt for years before I even knew this existed and was in fact the original. There are some really good songs on here but also some others that don’t quite hit the mark.
Honestly this album did absolutely nothing for me. There was nothing memorable whatsoever. I didn’t hate it, that would’ve meant it evoked at least an emotion.
There’s nothing bad just a few tracks that are filler and could quite easily have been cut. Fortunately there are some absolute bangers to be had that make it worthwhile. Not my usual thing but I enjoyed it.
There’s no words to describe this album that haven’t already been said countless times before. An absolutely phenomenal record and one of the greatest of all time.
Aside from Love Removal Machine, which is a certified banger, there’s nothing on here that really stands out. Tell a lie the cover of Born to be Wild stands out for being terrible. An album of quite generic 80’s rock.
This took me three attempts to get through. Could not get into this whatsoever
Decent enough album. When all is said and done will be nowhere near the top of my list but still an enjoyable listen.
I could only name confidently her songs featured in The Blues Brothers but listening to this I was surprised how many songs I recognised. Phenomenal voice and I look forward to delving more into the back catalogue.
A surprisingly good album, had me hooked from the first song. Can’t believe I had never heard of these guys before but I will be rectifying that and listening more. I’m not giving a 5 because it’s not up there with my previous 5 stars but it’s a very high 4 if that makes sense lol.
There’s something intriguing about this album I can’t put my finger on. I’m rating this 3 but with a few more listens could be a 4.
Unbelievable album. Absolutely loved it. Gutted it is so short, could’ve happily listened to another hour. I personally didn’t think live albums should be included in this list but this has changed my mind.
So many classic songs on one album. Absolutely love it.
It would be easy to focus on the hits but the album as a whole is outstanding. No filler or duds, it shows why Bob Marley is such a legend.
This would’ve been a 5 star but my God Sex Machine drags. Way too long a song and completely killed my interest. Take that away and it’s an amazing album.
I would honestly argue this is the best album of the 90’s and up there with the best of all time. It’s faultless.
Not a terrible album but nothing really stood out to me. Quite forgettable tbh.
This wasn’t for me. If you’re into big band I’m sure this is a masterpiece but it took a lot to finish this past track 4.
Really liked this one. It may be sacrilege but the main reason it’s not a 5 is because as good an album as this is I prefer Blossoms and Rick Astley singing The Smiths to the actual Smiths.
Loved every second of this. What an album.
A couple of decent tracks on here but quite dull for the most part.
Some interesting stuff on here. I think it’s a grower so hard to score after one day.
Amazing voice. Way way way too long of an album to keep my interest. I reckon if u pick the top 10-12 tracks of this on their own you would have a 4-5 star album.
Really enjoyed this one. TTABEFTBOU is a classic but the rest of the album definitely holds its own.
Bawitdaba is a banger but the rest of the album is truly terrible.
I honestly hated every second of this. His voice is shocking.
Really enjoyed this. Had only heard Psycho Killer before but the rest of the album holds its own as well.
Unbelievable album. Loved every track. Some amazing guitar riffs.
Outstanding album. The title track is an absolute classic but the rest of the album holds its own.
Very middle of the road. Nothing terrible but apart from La Grange nothing memorable either.
