I don't think we talk about how hard Adam Raised A Cain goes. Goddamn.

Ramones
5/5
14 songs that blaze by in less than a half an hour. Haters will say all the songs sound the same and that they only use 3 chords, but it's over before that becomes an issue. God bless The Ramones.

Pere Ubu
3/5
When this bands experiments work, then this is truly fantastic. When they don't, it's unlistenable. An interesting listen to say the least. Can't say I'm going to be coming back to this one, but I'd rather hear this than something polished and boring.

Sounds like half the other albums I've heard on this list, but the singer this time sounds like a bad George Harrison impersonation. This list was obviously made by a bunch of middle aged British dudes.

Nice background music for driving around on a Monday morning. Can't see myself really going back to it, but it was pleasant enough.
The Doors
5/5
I like it when the Doors go fully blues rock. This album rules.
T. Rex
4/5
Simon & Garfunkel
3/5
My second Simon & Garfunkel album. I think I'll stick with the greatest hits
Cheap Trick
4/5
The energy is great and the guys sound like they're having fun. I need to listen to more Cheap Trick.
Beth Orton
1/5
This reminds me of Natalie Merchant. I hate Natalie Merchant.
Pretenders
2/5
Yeah, I just don't get the hype.
Led Zeppelin
5/5
I think In My Time Of Dying is slept on. That's all I can really add to the discussion. Zeppelin rules.
Aerosmith
4/5
A nice slice of 70's hard rock. These guys were pretty great back in the day.
Neil Young
4/5
I seem to get these low key chilled out folksy albums on rainy days. I'm not complaining cause this is great.
Happy Mondays
2/5
Some of the guitar riffs are decent, but I'm just not into 90s club music.
Fleet Foxes
4/5
These harmonies? *chefs kiss*
The Dave Brubeck Quartet
3/5
Really loved Take Five and Blue Rondo. The rest is good background music.
Sex Pistols
5/5
I wish more bands would follow the Pistols example and just do one banger album and call it quits. Sometimes that's all you need.
Frank Ocean
4/5
Frank is great.
John Martyn
5/5
Stuff like this is why I signed up for this site. Never heard of this guy before. Absolutely loving it. It's jazzy, folksy and a little weird.
Alice In Chains
5/5
That perfect mix of heavy and melodic that just speaks to me. Layne and Jerry's harmonies are just insane.
Marvin Gaye
3/5
This is decent. Other than the title track and Distant Lover, not much stands out but I don't think this is the kind of record for intense in depth listening if you get my drift. (It's for boning)
Various Artists
4/5
Can't go wrong with The Ronettes and Darlene Love.
Stan Getz
4/5
Chilled out goodness.
Pixies
4/5
Alanis Morissette
5/5
Some brutally honest lyrics and excellent songwriting. Hooks for days.
M.I.A.
3/5
Is that.... Sanford and Son?
The Killers
4/5
If you're making a list of the top 50 rock songs of the 2000s, like 3 of them are on this album.
Emmylou Harris
3/5
It's always nice when Emmylou shows up to like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or the Grammys to do some tribute cause he voice is great. This album is fine. I dunno, I'm just not really a country guy.
The Blue Nile
4/5
It's giving Talking Heads/Kate Bush vibes. I like this. Nice discovery.
The Youngbloods
3/5
A fun little nugget of 60s nonsense.
Steely Dan
2/5
The musicianship is very good, but none of these songs really stand out and excite me all that much. I like some of their songs, but none of them are on this album.
Scott Walker
4/5
Love his voice and the orchestrations.
Jamiroquai
3/5
I don't hate this? I dunno. Some decent grooves here but nothing really great. I'm feeling nice so I guess it gets 3 stars.
Parliament
5/5
Good lord this is funky. The levels of stank are immeasurable.
Suede
2/5
It's very telling that my anglophile wife who loves all things britpop has never brought these guys up.
Rush
5/5
Side A might be the greatest album side of all time. Side B ain't too shabby either. If you don't like Rush, you're suspect.
FKA twigs
3/5
Jeff Buckley
5/5
Man, it's a goddamn shame he only ever got to make one record because this is gooooorgeous.
Elliott Smith
3/5
Sade
4/5
Smoother than peanut butter and almost as good.
Willie Nelson
4/5
This is like I'm hanging out by the campfire with some old cowboys just jamming to some tunes. Legitimately surprised by how much I am enjoying this.
The Clash
5/5
What else can I say that hasn't been said by a million others? This album is a goddamn masterpiece and I'm jealous of anyone who gets to hear it for the first time.
The Fall
1/5
What the fuck is this?
Bon Jovi
2/5
Cheesy 80's hair metal is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine, but I've never been a Bon Jovi guy cause I grew up in the 90's when they were a shitty adult contemporary band for moms. I'll stick with Twisted Sister.
Depeche Mode
4/5
3/5
Man, that title track is something else.
Van Morrison
2/5
I really didn't care for this. All the songs just kind of rambled and went nowhere and I got sick of his vocals.
James Brown
5/5
Auuuuuggghhhh!!!!!
The Fall
1/5
This is slightly less awful than the other Fall album I've gotten on this site. Does anyone actually like this or is it just a hipster irony thing? "You don't get it, maaaaan. It's actually supposed to be unlistenable garbage."
Patti Smith
4/5
Patti Smith is cooler than you
Pere Ubu
3/5
When this bands experiments work, then this is truly fantastic. When they don't, it's unlistenable. An interesting listen to say the least. Can't say I'm going to be coming back to this one, but I'd rather hear this than something polished and boring.
Radiohead
5/5
I keep thinking about what I can say about this that hasn't been said a million times. This is an undisputed classic.
The Black Crowes
4/5
Kinda forgot about these guys since I don't listen to the radio much anymore. Solid rock band right here.
Einstürzende Neubauten
2/5
I'm going to give this 2 stars for the sheer audacity of releasing this for public consumption. It normally would be an easy 1 star, but it made me laugh a few times so I got some enjoyment out of it.
Nirvana
5/5
It's a shame that Kurt couldn't get the help he needed, but as far as final albums, this one is pretty hard to beat.
Erykah Badu
3/5
Sounds like a jam session. Not exactly something I'm clamoring to listen to on repeat, but it's fine enough.
Louis Prima
4/5
This is just delightful. Everyone involved in thus sounds like they had a blast and you can hear it in the recording.
The Thrills
1/5
Hipster nonsense.
Derek & The Dominos
4/5
Never been a fan of Clayton's solo work but when he's collaborating with a band such as Cream or the guys on this project, he shines. Also, the lore behind this album is great too with the whole Harrison/Boyd/Clapton love triangle drama. So yeah, this is a good one.
Jazmine Sullivan
4/5
Miss Sullivan is from Philly, so this is automatically good. Dudes who don't like this can't find the clit.
The Bees
3/5
Arcade Fire
5/5
This band was a mainstay during my brief indie rock phase in my mid to late 20s. It's still great.
Eels
2/5
Novacaine For The Soul was a medium sizes hit in the 90s and after listening to this album I can see why they are a one hit wonder.
The Pretty Things
4/5
The Beatles on crack (I mean that as a compliment)
Tim Buckley
3/5
Average 60's psych/folk album. I prefer his son.
DJ Shadow
3/5
It sounds like royalty free background music on youtube videos. It's fine and I think DJ Shadow is talented, but I don't see what all the fuss is about.
The Specials
4/5
Plot twist... it's turns out I like Ska.
Deee-Lite
3/5
Groove Is In The Heart is an all time banger and makes this a 3 out of 5. Otherwise, it's 90s club music so not really my thing.
Creedence Clearwater Revival
4/5
I don't know what it means to "choogle" but if Mr. Fogerty insists, I'm gonna keep on doing it.
Just the kind of pure, no bullshit blues rock that is timeless.
The Mothers Of Invention
4/5
I think it's funny that the guy who signed them only heard "Trouble Every Day" and thought they were a straight up blues band.
Portishead
3/5
The Yardbirds
4/5
Typical messy mid 60s album (but in a good way). I've been sleeping on these guys apparantly.
Marvin Gaye
4/5
I'd imagine Marvin would quite a lot to say about stuff that's going on nowadays. What's going on indeed.
Missy Elliott
4/5
For a classic hip hop album, there isn't as much rapping as I remember. Anyway, I liked this a lot. Timbaland was unstoppable at this point as a producer.
Stevie Wonder
5/5
It's Stevie Wonder. Of course it's amazing.
The Go-Go's
4/5
Great 80s pop rock.
Red Hot Chili Peppers
3/5
This is pretty good if you can tune out Anthony Kiedas. Luckiest son of a bitch in rock and roll history.
Grant Lee Buffalo
4/5
One of those "I vaguely remember hearing about these guys back in the 90's" acts that this site seems to have a lot of. Sometimes you get something good, sometimes you get something bad. This is one of the good ones.
Slayer
5/5
Slaaaaaaayyeeeeeeeeer!!!!!!!
This album just kicks your ass efficiently for 28 minutes straight. Thrash distilled to its purest essence.
Nine Inch Nails
5/5
It's so weird that this guy does scores for prestige dra.a films now, but it kind of makes sense when you listen to this. This is basically just a soundtrack to Trent Reznors self destruction. I'm glad Trent was able to get out of it alive unlike a lot of musicians of that era.
Red Snapper
2/5
Yeah, this definitely sounds like it came out in the year 2000. I'm just not into Electronica.
Electric Light Orchestra
3/5
Mr. Blue Sky is one of my favorite songs. Absolutely always brightens up my day no matter how shitty the world is when I hear it. That being said, this album would be great if it were a single instead of a double.
Eminem
2/5
Eminem really is talented. It's just a shame 90% of his output is corny edge lord shit. I was definitely the target demographic for this when it came out (15/16 year old white boy from the suburbs) but even back then I didn't vibe with it.
The Rolling Stones
4/5
I feel like I should be in a shitty dive bar somewhere listening to this, but I'm stuck at work.
Fred Neil
2/5
This sounds like about 20 other albums I've heard on this list. Nothing really that special.
5/5
I never knew quite where this was going from song to song which is the highest compliment I can give an album. I love an album with variety and this certainly delivered. These guys should have been way bigger than they were.
Muddy Waters
4/5
Goddamn I love the blues.
The Band
2/5
The Band? More like The BLAND.
The Specials
4/5
Perfect tunes for chilling on a Sunday afternoon.
Fleetwood Mac
5/5
Creedence Clearwater Revival
5/5
11 minute version of I Heard It Through The Grapevine? Let's fucking gooooooooo!!!!
Solomon Burke
3/5
Solid mid 60s soul record.
Nitin Sawhney
3/5
Gorillaz
2/5
I think the marketing and universe created around this is much more interesting than the actual music.
The Offspring
2/5
Kind of sounds like if Weird Al made a song making fun of punk music. It's okay, I guess. I've always thought they were a novelty joke band.
The Smashing Pumpkins
5/5
Easily in my top 10 and probably top 5 albums. Perfection from front to back.
Jethro Tull
4/5
When he said "snot running down his nose" I really felt that.
Black Sabbath
5/5
Thanks Tony, Ozzy, Geezer and Bill for inventing heavy metal, the greatest music genre known to man.
Goldfrapp
3/5
Pavement
2/5
Cut Your Hair is a decent track. I'm just bored and unimpressed by the rest. They're not doing anything that wasn't done much better by the Pixies or Weezer.
LCD Soundsystem
3/5
R.E.M.
4/5
God, these Mike Mills backup vocals are transcendent.
Alexander 'Skip' Spence
2/5
I dunno. I thought given the background behind this album and all the crazy shit this guy did I would either get something really weird like Captain Beefheart or some beautiful lost gem like Nick Drake or something. I get a run of the mill mid 60s folk rock album. Meh.
Elliott Smith
4/5
Everything But The Girl
1/5
Adult contemporary bullshit.
The Sabres Of Paradise
1/5
This sounds like my ass after I've had too much taco bell. None of these songs are interesting enough to listen to for 45 seconds, let alone for 8 minutes. I feel like this site is punishing me for giving me some actual good music last week. Proof that not everything was good in the 90s.
Bad Brains
4/5
This was exactly what I needed to hear today. I've been sleeping on these guys.
Beatles
5/5
It's awesome and insane that these same four dudes made St. Peppers like three years later.
The Jesus And Mary Chain
3/5
Soundgarden
5/5
Black Hole Sun is easily one of the top 100 songs ever written.
Beastie Boys
5/5
Name another group that can do hip-hop, hardcore punk and 70's funk instrumentals on one album. Beastie Boys will forever be my shit.
Missy Elliott
3/5
The Chemical Brothers
1/5
I didn't do drugs and go to raves in the 90's, so I hate this crap.
Rod Stewart
3/5
This actually isn't bad. Probably because Ronnie Wood and other members of The Faces were involved pretty heavily. Still, much better than expected.
Muddy Waters
5/5
Blues perfection. They just sounded like they were having a great time recording it.
Guided By Voices
3/5
This sounds like the bonus disc to an albums 30th anniversary deluxe edition. The work in progress songwriting demos.
3/5
Typical old school country music. Kinda all sounds the same but is pleasant enough to listen to. I'll take it over Morgan Wallen any day.
Prince
5/5
The first song is a masterpiece and then the rest of disc one is good. However, this album reaches masterpiece status on the second disc.
Genesis
4/5
Man, Peter Gabriel just makes everything better, doesn't he? Also, Phil Collins is a badass drummer.
Kid Rock
2/5
Yeah. I admit it. I used to listen to this in high school. I still know a lot of the words, too. Objectively I know it's trash and I'm embarrassed I ever liked it, but the slight nostalgia I feel for it won't let me give it a lower grade than 2 stars.
P.S. That n-word on the last track? We shouldn't be surprised that Kid has gone full MAGA.
ABBA
4/5
Just some perfectly produced pop songs and surprisingly proggy in parts? I dig it.
Elton John
3/5
I've always thought of Elton John as a "greatest hits" kind of artist and this album didn't dissuade me from that.
It's solid, but I can't see myself coming back to this on a regular basis except to listen to Tiny Dancer and Levon.
The Mothers Of Invention
4/5
You either get it or you don't. This shits weird, but so am I, so it's right in my wheel house.
The Slits
2/5
Linkin Park
4/5
Surprisingly, given my age and my music taste, this is the first time I've actually listened to this all the way through. It's a decent nu metal record. Way overplayed back in the day which is probably why I never listened to it.
Ladysmith Black Mambazo
3/5
Crosby, Stills & Nash
3/5
This is good, but it's missing something. (Neil Young)
10cc
3/5
This is like a less weird version of Zappa. I dig it.
Bruce Springsteen
5/5
I don't think we talk about how hard Adam Raised A Cain goes. Goddamn.
Tortoise
4/5
The wife and I drove around today doing errands today and this was a perfect soundtrack to that. I really dug this quite a bit. It was chill but still kept me interested. A, nice discovery.
Dexys Midnight Runners
3/5
The Clash
5/5
Punk rock perfection.
Garbage
4/5
Storytime: I was hanging out with my grandmother at the mall in the 90s and I mentioned to her I wanted to buy this cd. She said "I'm not letting you buy that! It's garbage!"
Needless to say, this album was very good. Grammaw got this one wrong. Miss you!
John Prine
4/5
Sam Stone is one of the most devastatingly sad songs of all time.
Bob Dylan
3/5
Michael Jackson
5/5
He made Thriller. THRILLER.
The Auteurs
2/5
Sounds like half the other albums I've heard on this list, but the singer this time sounds like a bad George Harrison impersonation. This list was obviously made by a bunch of middle aged British dudes.
The United States Of America
4/5
This shit is weird and I like it.
The Cars
5/5
The Cars Greatest Hits Vol. 1
Literally every song is a banger.
Kendrick Lamar
5/5
Imagine this existing and choosing to listen to Drake.
The Cardigans
3/5
Lovefool is one of the best pop songs of the 90s and I enjoyed the cheeky Iron Man cover.
Gang Starr
4/5
This might make me sound like a boomer, but man 90s hip hop is so much better than most of the crap that passes for hip hop nowadays.
The Beach Boys
4/5
The Shamen
1/5
More shitty 90s club music. Yay!
Metallica
5/5
Metallica at their heaviest and most technically proficient. Probably their best album even though the mix is awful. Justice For Jason!
3/5
Sly & The Family Stone
5/5
Destiny's Child
2/5
This didn't need to be 71 minutes long.
Public Enemy
4/5
Even if you take off the Anthrax remix, this is a perfect hip hop album for metal heads. Loud and in your face.
Earth, Wind & Fire
3/5
New Order
3/5
Frank Zappa
5/5
This is easily a top 5 Zappa record and the best of his more jazzy instrumental based work. This and Overnite Sensation are great intros to his stuff.
Rage Against The Machine
5/5
If you don't like this, you're a cop.
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
3/5
Bill Callahan
2/5
This guy sounds almost as bored as I am.
Peter Gabriel
5/5
If you don't like Sledgehammer, get help for your lack of taste
Talking Heads
4/5
Queen Latifah
3/5
Fiona Apple
3/5
Funkadelic
4/5
The Boo Radleys
4/5
Another decent album that sounds like half of the other ones on this list, but they kept it weird enough to keep me interested the entire running time.
Super Furry Animals
2/5
I'm about 200 albums in and at least a quarter of them have been some version of this.
Sepultura
4/5
Finally, some fucking metal!
Red Hot Chili Peppers
4/5
Cut maybe 3 or 4 songs from this and you got a 5 star album.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
5/5
Just pure noise and fun. If you don't like this then you're a boring person.
The Triffids
2/5
Fela Kuti
4/5
Imagine making a song so badass that the army throws your mom out of a window.
American Music Club
2/5
The one song that was semi interesting got cut off on the YouTube video of the album. Its not on spotify and frankly, no big loss.
Steve Winwood
1/5
This is for boring people who think mayonnaise is spicy and Phil Collins is a little too hardcore.
Manu Chao
4/5
I loved how all the tracks flowed together. Totally going to play this around Trump supporters I know to make them angry.
Metallica
5/5
I think it's pretty funny that I'm getting this album today since I'm seeing them in concert tonight.
Anyways, lots of "real" metal heads complain about this album but there's a reason why this is one of the best selling albums of all time. It's a fantastic album and probably the perfect introduction to Metallica and therefore the genre of metal as a whole.
George Michael
4/5
God, this guy was just a massive talent. Freedom 90 is forever a bop, but the rest of this record is just gorgeous. When's volume 2 coming out?
Amy Winehouse
4/5
It's a damn shame. This album is great and it feels like she was just getting started.
Van Halen
4/5
All these classic DLR era Van Halen albums are like 30 minutes long. More 30 minute albums please.
Suicide
3/5
Dennis Wilson
3/5
Decent singer songwriter album from the 70s. Harmonies sound beautiful (obviously) and some interesting instrumental arrangements here and there. I don't think this would be as well regarded as it seems if a beach boy wasn't involved but it was a nice rainy day driving around album.
The Pogues
4/5
This is Irish as fuck which means it's automatically good.
Funkadelic
4/5
Cocteau Twins
3/5
I like their later stuff better, but Elizabeth Fraser could sing the phone book and make it sound good.
Abdullah Ibrahim
3/5
MGMT
2/5
MehGMT
4/5
4/5
80's white boy funk at its finest.
Jimmy Smith
5/5
If I go to a barbecue joint and I hear this on the speakers, I know the food is going to be spectacular.
Ray Charles
3/5
N.E.R.D
2/5
Everything that sucked about early 2000s music in one album.
Madonna
2/5
Madonna is much more of a singles artist than an album artist and none of the singles from this album were particularly great. Why the fuck is this album on the list? Stick with the compilations.
Television
4/5
Man, I'm a sucker for a 10 minute epic.
Stephen Stills
3/5
Really dug the first side but it kind of lost steam after that. One of those stereotypical messy double albums that would have been much better as a single album.
Robert Wyatt
3/5
Some really cool arrangements on here. This was a nice chill listen.
The Beach Boys
3/5
R.I.P. Mr. Wilson.
Van Halen
5/5
This album rules, obviously, but you gotta try to find DLRs isolated vocals on youtube. Shit's hilarious.
Paul Simon
5/5
I just couldn't stop smiling and bobbing my head the entire time listening to this.
Cee Lo Green
3/5
Fugees
4/5
A prime example of how great 90's hip hop was. Probably don't need 3 remixes of Fu-Gee-La, though.
Jimi Hendrix
5/5
This came out about 6 months after Are You Experienced. Insane.
The Last Shadow Puppets
2/5
Kids, we have Scott Walker at home.
Madonna
3/5
Madonna in her hippie dippie "I'm not religious, just spiritual" era. Probably the best of the 3 albums I've gotten from her doing this challenge.
The Allman Brothers Band
5/5
Goddamn, I love the blues.
Iggy Pop
4/5
The Stranglers
5/5
What if The Doors played punk rock?
George Harrison
4/5
Sonic Youth
3/5
These guys aren't bad when they actually try.
Penguin Cafe Orchestra
4/5
I'm a gigantic slut for weird shit and string sections. This is right up my alley.
k.d. lang
4/5
It took me a couple of tracks to warm up to this, but by track 3 I was a believer. Her voice is sooooooooo good.
David Bowie
4/5
Finally! My first Bowie album of the challenge!
Heroes (the song) is my favorite Bowie song and one of my favorite songs of all time. The album itself is very good too, but man that song is something special .
Duran Duran
2/5
So many other bands of that era were doing much better versions of this, but they were really handsome so....
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
3/5
A fine record, but nothing really here blew my mind like some of his other stuff.
ZZ Top
4/5
Badass riffs and badass beards. Sometimes you gotta turn your brain off and just enjoy some dumb dad rock.
Blue Cheer
4/5
Not quite the true birth of heavy metal like some have said, but a very important early influence. Just nasty, loud blues rock.
Deep Purple
4/5
I did my involuntary stank face for a good chunk of this one.
Fun Lovin' Criminals
2/5
Adele
4/5
Phenomenal voice and great songs. Sometimes people sell boatloads of albums because of their undeniable talent.
Ice Cube
3/5
This guy was in Are We There Yet? and that just cracks me up for some reason given the lyrical content on display here.
Laibach
1/5
This is just Bowser Castle music with a German dude talking over it. Also, half the songs are also somehow queen covers? This is garbage and probably racist.
Nirvana
5/5
I mean, it's Nevermind. It's an easy 5 stars.
The Monkees
3/5
Decent little mid 60's record. The Monkees were actually a decent group. This sounds like Rubber Soul outtakes.
The Cure
4/5
The vocals are really mixed weirdly on this. You can barely even make them out on some of the songs. That being said, A Forest is a top 5 Cure track.
Dirty Projectors
4/5
You can't fool me. This is a prog rock album. Indie, my ass.
By the way, that's a good review.
4/5
Wire
3/5
Some good songs on here, but a lot of short, half finished ones. Some of the shorter ones could have been developed more. Still a good time, though.
Sparks
5/5
Randomly watching that documentary about these guys one night is one of the best music discovery decisions I have ever made. They have so many great songs and albums over a very long and prolific career and this is probably the best place to start
Eagles
2/5
Joe Walsh=cool
Don Henley=lame
Therefore the Eagles average out to meh.
Alice Cooper
4/5
Bob Dylan
4/5
Ozomatli
4/5
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
3/5
This is my first experience with a Nick Cave album. It was fine. Decent background music. I didn't feel it's length.
Venom
5/5
This is a very good album and a very important influence to a lot of the early thrash and death metal bands. Yes, it's a little silly but so is a lot of the crap on this site that people fawn over. It's an easy 4 star album that I'm giving 5 stars to because of a lot of the anti-metal snobbery on display.
Gene Clark
4/5
Albums like this are why I do this challenge. This album is beautiful.
Foo Fighters
3/5
Dave Grohl attempts to make his very own Nirvana album and instead makes a middle of the road radio rock album. It's aggressively fine.
The Byrds
3/5
Black Sabbath
5/5
RIP Ozzy Osbourne.
Personally, I think Master of Reality is a much more essential album than this one, but you can't go wrong with any of the first 6 Sabbath albums. (and the Dio era stuff, too)
Marvin Gaye
2/5
I wish this album was as interesting as it's lore. Just a very meandering affair.
Johnny Cash
4/5
John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers
3/5
Well played blues that's missing the "stank" that you get with the really good shit. Another example of Eric Clapton being great only when he's in a supporting role.
Gary Numan
3/5
Norah Jones
3/5
This is very pleasant background music. Put this on at a wine and cheese party and you're good to go.
Todd Rundgren
4/5
Much more experimental and Zappa-ish than I was expecting. Definitely will check out some more from this guy.
TV On The Radio
4/5
I was really into this album back in the day when I was dabbling in the indie hipster stuff that was popular at the time. This one still holds up fairly well.
Beck
4/5
The Who
2/5
The Who are like the one band of "classic rock" canon that I just never vibed with. I never outright hated them, but I'd rather listen to Zeppelin, The Stones, The Beatles or even Bad Company over this any day. Plus, the James Brown and Bo Diddley covers on this thing are laughably bad.
Queens of the Stone Age
3/5
I would easily swap this out for Songs For The Deaf. That albums the real deal.
The Human League
3/5
Don't You Want Me is such a classic. The restvof the album is fine.
Elton John
4/5
Kelela
2/5
She's got a great voice but like most Electronica stuff, it all sounds the same. 3 tracks in and I know what I'm getting.
Butthole Surfers
2/5
I respect this more than I like this if that makes any sense.
Underworld
3/5
I was fully expecting to hate this since I despise this techno stuff, but this is actually pretty decent.
Blondie
4/5
The Only Ones
2/5
Track one is just awful. His vocals don't work for these slower tracks. The album does get better, but there isn't much here to recommend overall. Just because it's a British punk album from 1978 means it's worthy of inclusion on the list.
The 13th Floor Elevators
4/5
The White Stripes
5/5
Maybe the best rock album of the 21st century if you don't count metal releases
Klaxons
4/5
This was a pleasant surprise. Dancy indie rock with a sci-fi edge.
Arrested Development
2/5
Decent beats, but this is just way too preachy and corny for my taste. It's giving youth pastor vibes. Tennessee however is a banger.
Neil Young
4/5
Iron Maiden
5/5
Great musicianship, killer vocals, lots of bangers, amazing album covers and incredible live. Maiden is easily a top 10 band for me.
The Strokes
4/5
The Verve
4/5
Sigur Rós
4/5
This music is just gorgeous.
Kanye West
4/5
I just can't believe the same dude who made these songs is now a Hitler praising edgelord. God, what a waste. What the hell happened, Kanye?
Bruce Springsteen
2/5
I really love the title track, but this album is overall way too "adult contemporary" for my taste. Not helping the fact is how damn long it is.
Khaled
3/5
I enjoyed this. Lots of great funky grooves. Like a lot of albums from the CD era it's probably about 15-20 minutes too long, though. Throw this on at your next family function to piss off your MAGA relatives.
Little Richard
4/5
WOOOOOOOO!!!! All hail the TRUE king of Rock and Roll.
Gillian Welch
3/5
Beck
2/5
Serious Beck is not really my thing. I prefer nonsense Beck.
Sister Sledge
3/5
Maturity is realizing that Disco does NOT suck.
Queen
5/5
This album goes from prog to pop to proto metal to dixieland jazz and everything else in between and they do it all so well. Amazing band and amazing album.
Peter Gabriel
4/5
I was lucky enough to see Mr. Gabriel a couple years back on his last tour and he ended the set with Biko. It was amazing.
Count Basie & His Orchestra
3/5
Arctic Monkeys
2/5
Possibly the most overrated rock band of the 21st century. Never really got into them and this album didn't convince me.
Travis
2/5
This is the music they play in late 90s teen comedies when the main character is sad and having problems with his girlfriend.
The Beta Band
2/5
The Beta BLAND
Herbie Hancock
4/5
Pet Shop Boys
3/5
It's A Sin is an all time banger. Unfortunately the rest of the album pales on comparison.
Primal Scream
1/5
Just because this has the occasional guitar riff doesn't mean it's not shitty 90s club music. What a waste of an objectively badass band name.
The Young Gods
3/5
Basically what I would imagine French Industrial music to sound like.
Run-D.M.C.
4/5
Man, these dudes went hard back in the day.
Taylor Swift
2/5
Standard adult contemporary radio fare. People act like she's the second coming of christ but her lyrics are middle school poetry at best. I just don't get the hype. My niece loves her, though, so I'll give this a 2.
Crowded House
3/5
I didn't know that weather song is by them, so I guess they're a two hit wonder. Anyways, this was a decent record.
Miles Davis
5/5
Genius.
Ramblin' Jack Elliott
2/5
Mine had a random Sara Vaughn song in the middle of the tracklist, which must have been a mistake on spotifys fault. Anyways, not really for me. Sounds like he was just making up songs as he went along.
The Darkness
5/5
I Believe In A Thing Called Love was a signature song of mine during my karaoke era. I could sorta hit the notes back then. I sure as hell can't hit them now. Lots of fond memories of this album. This is an easy 5 stars.
Leonard Cohen
2/5
One of those rare cases where good songs are ruined by terrible production. Some of these songs would be good if they were more stripped back. Except Jazz Police. Nothing's saving that shit.
Songhoy Blues
4/5
The Undertones
3/5
John Lennon
4/5
John goes to therapy and unpacks a lot of shit. Not always a comfortable listen but that's the point.
Nas
5/5
90's hip hop perfection. Plus, no dumb ass skits.
Led Zeppelin
5/5
I'll never understand why "Hey Hey What Can I Do" was relegated to obscure b-side status but they kept "Hats Off To Roy Harper" on this.
That being said, another great Zeppelin album. Lots of great acoustic stuff on side 2. Definitely paved the way for Stairway.
CHIC
3/5
Gets a bit repetitive, but you can't deny how funky it is.
Public Image Ltd.
1/5
If you want to hear Johnny Rotten caterwaul over the same repetitive beat for 7 minutes, this is the album for you.
Kendrick Lamar
5/5
Kendrick and Tyler are pretty much the only mainstream rappers making good shit nowadays. Even a Drake feature can't ruin this.
The Who
3/5
I appreciate the ambition, I just don't think The Who are a versatile enough band to pull off something like this fully. Lots of bloat. Maybe if they stuck to making it a single lp?
Giant Sand
1/5
Giant Bland.
Ray Charles
3/5
Bebel Gilberto
3/5
Bossanova with a modern (in the year 2000 at least) twist. Not bad. That album cover is atrocious, though.
Frank Sinatra
4/5
Hearing Frank always puts a smile on my face.
Mike Ladd
2/5
Some of the beats are good, but man this guy has no flow. Sounds like a cheap copy of MF Doom (who, by the way, isn't even on this list)
Led Zeppelin
5/5
So many great riffs. Possibly their best album.
Happy Mondays
1/5
More proof that doing drugs doesn't always inspire good music.
Caetano Veloso
3/5
Cat Stevens
4/5
Green Day
5/5
Got to see them do this album and Dookie live in its entirely last year. Still a fantastic album and unfortunately the title track is super timely right now.
Spacemen 3
1/5
All these "songs" just repeat the same thing for 3 to 11 (!!!) minutes without leading up to anything interesting. What a waste of my time.
Nanci Griffith
3/5
The Rolling Stones
4/5
Typical Stones album, which means there are two or three all time great singles and a bunch of loose jams that mostly work. Probably best listened to at dive bars or rowdy barbecues.
Morrissey
3/5
First time listening to solo Moz. Not bad but not quite up to the level of The Smiths.
Bobby Womack
4/5
Bobby Womack was a scoundrel and this is some scoundrel ass shit.
The Rolling Stones
3/5
I never really understood the hype behind this album. It's not bad by any means, but I think the Stones have a lot better material. Would have been better as a single lp for sure.
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
3/5
I like that Fuckin Up song. It speaks to me lyrically since I'm always fucking up.
OutKast
5/5
Disc 1 (Speakboxxx) is a dirty south hip hop classic. Disc 2 (The Love Below) is Andre 3000 doing whatever the hell he wants. Two really strong albums packaged as one. It's a lot to take in at once but worth it.
Christina Aguilera
3/5
This is probably the most early 2000s album I've ever heard, but girl can sang. Plus, Beautiful is a legitimately great song. I enjoyed this more than I thought I would.
Neil Young
3/5
I don't know about this one. I like a lot of Neil Youngs shit but this one was kinda meh. It's my 3rd or 4th Neil album so far and he's very hit or miss. I got his greatest hits cd many years back and I'll probably stick with that for the most part.
The Vines
3/5
I bought this cd back in the day. I don't remember any of these songs except Get Free. Not bad but obviously has not stood the test of time.
De La Soul
5/5
Jimi Hendrix
5/5
Jimi not only reinvented the guitar, but he pushed production techniques as far as they could go in 1968. I would have loved to have seen what crazy shit he would have come up with in the 1970's and beyond. A true masterpiece like all of the Experience records.
Dwight Yoakam
2/5
I'll take this over modern day bro country crap like Morgan Wallan, but with some notable exceptions, country is just not my thing.
Scissor Sisters
2/5
I'm going to rate this a 2 because of that Pink Floyd cover. A light 3 otherwise.
Hole
4/5
Jefferson Airplane
3/5
Needs more Grace Slick.
Paul McCartney
2/5
This sounds like the 50th anniversary bonus deluxe box set version of an actual album. Maybe I'm Amazed is great though.
The B-52's
4/5
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
3/5
Another "stick to the greatest hits" artist.
The Cult
4/5
It's somewhat generic and that Steppenwolf cover is really bad, but this is the kind of no bullshit hard rock that scratches the dumb caveman part of my brain. I'll take this over techno any day.
Dusty Springfield
4/5
Donovan
3/5
Black Sabbath
5/5
This album is the reason why 95% of the shit I listen to exists. God bless Ozzy Osbourne and God Bless Black Sabbath.
Pink Floyd
5/5
Like, it's Dark Side Of The Fucking Moon. What else can I say?
Dolly Parton
3/5
These 3 ladies were just made to sing together. A nice pleasant album to listen while doing Sunday errands with the Mrs.
Fatboy Slim
2/5
A Tribe Called Quest
4/5
Hugh Masekela
3/5
The Pogues
4/5
Fairytale of New York is one of the only Holiday songs that you can listen to all year round. Great song. The rest of this album was very good, too.
Stan Getz
4/5
I think doing this challenge has made me discover that I just loved this chilled out jazz shit.
Beastie Boys
5/5
I'm still discovering old songs that are sampled on this album many years after the fact. Absolutely dense and brilliant production on this one. Lyrics are silly and dumb but also clever at the same time. A masterpiece.
Steely Dan
3/5
Great production and musicianship. I just wish it had more soul. Peg is a bop, though.
David Bowie
4/5
This was a nice surprise when it was released because we all thought he was retired. I remember even talking to my wife about a possible tour. Sadly, that's not how things played out, but I'm glad he was a creative force up until the end.
Everything But The Girl
2/5
90's grocery store ass album.
Tom Waits
4/5
Syd Barrett
3/5
This one is really hard to rate. It's honestly not very good. It's very ramshackle and mostly sounds like he's making it up as he goes along. His history of mental illness obviously comes into play here and there are some good moments where his talent is able to shine through.
The Velvet Underground
5/5
I have a feeling that the Velvets will join Bruce Springsteen and Fleetwood Mac under my "controversial artists" because this album is a 5 star classic and I've never really ever connected with the rest of their stuff. We'll see.
Joan Baez
3/5
Nirvana
5/5
Where Did You Sleep Last Night still gives me chills.
Cream
4/5
Creamy goodness.
Weather Report
4/5
Jaco!!
The Jam
3/5
Pantera
5/5
Fuck yeah. Just what I needed this morning after not sleeping well last night. A top 10 metal album for sure.
David Bowie
4/5
David in his coked out soul brother era. You can hear a young Luther Vandross on some of these tracks. Another solid album from one of the greats.
David Holmes
1/5
I guess if you made techno in the 90's you're just automatically on this list or something.
Shivkumar Sharma
3/5
I can't see this being a repeat listen, especially since it's not on streaming services and seems to only exist on cruddy YouTube uploads. But, I was doing some reading when I listened to this on a Sunday afternoon and it was perfect for that. I'll take this over all the shitty techno albums on this list any day.
AC/DC
5/5
Bon Scott AC/DC > Brian Johnson AC/DC
Jane Weaver
4/5
Well, this was a nice surprise. Never heard of this artist but I thoroughly enjoyed her mix of synth pop and psychedelia.
The Flying Burrito Brothers
3/5
Average country album. It's not really my genre but it's decent for what it is. My Uncle was a nice stand out.
Depeche Mode
4/5
A lot of these songs sound like they could be in Donkey Kong Country and I absolutely mean that as a compliment.
Aretha Franklin
5/5
Classic soul at its best. All hail Queen Aretha.
Slade
3/5
Standard 70s hard rock. I guess their gimmick is that they spell their songs wrong. Not bad, but I don't think this will be in rotation too much.
GZA
5/5
I love the early Wu-Tang releases because of how grimy and raw the production. It's like a 70's grind house flick for your ears.
Guns N' Roses
5/5
Debut albums don't get too much better than this. I wish they could have kept it up instead of imploding, but we got this and the Illusion records out of the deal at least.
Ms. Dynamite
1/5
Dollar store Mary J. Blige. The lyrics are corny and oftentimes preachy. I don't know why it's listed under electronica on this site when the only thing this has in common with electronica is that it's terrible.
Devendra Banhart
1/5
I was both bored and annoyed with this.
David Bowie
5/5
One of Bowies best.
John Lee Hooker
3/5
I was worried when I listened to the first track and I thought it was going to be an awful album because that chintzy 80's production just doesn't work for John's vocals. Thankfully, it got much better. The last few tracks where it's just John and not guest stars are really good. Unfortunately, a lot of these older blues artists were basically releasing singles instead of actual albums during their peak periods, so they've been represented on this list by later output that doesn't show them at their best.
The Stooges
5/5
Detroit rock and roll at it's finest. Raw Power is the perfect name for this. This site directed me to the Iggy mix for this album and that seems to be the right choice. Also, this album is only 34 minutes which is perfection. Get you in, get you out.
Echo And The Bunnymen
4/5
Sounds like this could have been released in the 90's, not 1984. Loved the orchestrations.
3/5
I realize Dylan is an important figure in music history. I just think that on a list where some important genres and artists are massively under represented, we probably don't need a Bob Dylan bootleg. This is interesting from a historical standpoint and is overall a fine performance, but Bob Dylans folk to rock evolution is already represented by albums of his on this list. At least I got to annoy my wife with my Dylan impression all day.
Paul Revere & The Raiders
3/5
Laura Nyro
3/5
Made after the backlash to their experimental 90's period, this album was supposed to be a return to form for U2. What it really is is a safe, watered version of U2. People ate it up at the time, but this is no one's favorite U2 album unless you're boring. They've just coasted since then. Stick with Achtung Baby and everything before.
Doves
4/5
This kind of reminds me of a less proggy version or Porcupine Tree/Steven Wilson. Never heard of these guys before but they'll definitely be in my rotation now.
Van Morrison
3/5
I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this. Never been a big Van Morrison guy, but his band fucking shreds and he has a lot of charisma as a front man. Guess I've been sleeping on Van.
The The
3/5
Parts of this sound like something from the 90's and some of it has that distinctive 80's cheese factor. It's okay.
Beastie Boys
5/5
The Beasties would certainly mature both musically and as people after this (as we all should) but goddamn if this album isn't a blast to listen to. They would later claim a lot of of this is satire that went over people heads, and I mostly believe that. It's loud, stupid and obnoxious and pretty much a perfect debut album.
Willie Nelson
4/5
Like I said on my review of Stardust on this site, listening to Willie Nelson is like just sitting by the fire with a bunch of old cowboys singing songs and telling stories. This is exactly what country music can and should be.
Sonic Youth
2/5
I'm glad so many of the bands I love were able to hear this and have it influence them cause personally I don't get it. Kim Gordon is cool, though.
3/5
I got a Sonic Youth album yesterday, and sorry hipsters, I prefer this. It's not exactly groundbreaking stuff, but it's fun and it's okay to have some fun every so often. Probably don't need the endless Ben Stiller outro, though.
Simple Minds
3/5
I guess they did other stuff than the Breakfast Club soundtrack. Not a bad little synth pop record.
Talking Heads
3/5
They would go on to do bigger and better things. Not my favorite by them but still has some great tracks.
The Dandy Warhols
3/5
Standard 90s alt rock album with a bit of a spacy twist. Like a lot of albums of the CD era it's about 15 minutes too long. I dunno. I liked a couple tracks.
Michael Jackson
5/5
There are some days that i prefer this one to Thriller. This has that smooth 70's production that I just love. Quincy Jones was a genius and Michael was insanely talented. Plus, I'm pretty sure this was made before he started molesting children so that's a plus.
Thundercat
4/5
This was a fun listen. Thundercats is obviously a beast on the bass and I enjoyed hearing random guest shots from Michael McDonald and Kendrick Lamar. I dig Thundercats goofy sense of humor. My only real issue is some of the tracks were really undercooked, especially the shorter ones. Probably would be a great album to get stoned to if I did that kind of thing.
Ramones
5/5
14 songs that blaze by in less than a half an hour. Haters will say all the songs sound the same and that they only use 3 chords, but it's over before that becomes an issue. God bless The Ramones.
Deep Purple
5/5
I'm a sucker for a good riff/guitar solo and this album is FILLED to the brim with them.These guys truly don't get the love they deserve. They're more than just Smoke On The Water.
5/5
No wonder they thought they were The Beatles. If I wrote songs these good, I'd think I was John Lennon, too.
Mariah Carey
2/5
Another artist that is better served with a greatest hits collection as opposed to an album. Just samey sounding cheesy ballads abound. The Prince cover is awful. Also, she was getting to the point where she was just doing too much of the whisper singing.
Minutemen
3/5
These guys are very talented, but man, 43 songs is a LOT. They're all very short, though, so if you aren't into the current song, just wait. Bonus for giving us the theme song for Jackass.
Kraftwerk
4/5
So ahead of it's time, especially now that people are literally using AI to make music.
Stereo MC's
2/5
Another in a long series of albums that probably sounded great at raves in Manchester in the 90's but otherwise are not good. I'll give it 2 stars because none of the songs are egregiously long and it's almost Christmas, so I'm feeling generous.
The Beau Brummels
3/5
Decent 60's psych record. Can't say I'll ever put this one on again, but it was over in 28 minutes so I can't complain.
Sonic Youth
1/5
Like, Sonic Youth just has to be an elaborate prank, right? There's no way that a bunch of music critics didn't get together to convince everyone that this crap is actually good over a few drinks late one night as joke.
The Charlatans
2/5
(insert obscure British indie rock band here) sounds just like (insert obscure British indie rock band here)
ZZ Top
4/5
Great riffs and vibes. Makes me want to hang out at a shitty dive bar and drink some cheap beer.
Robert Wyatt
2/5
I'm normally a big prog guy and I appreciate the difficulties that Mr. Wyatt was dealing with around this time with his accident and all. This just wasn't for me though. A bit too abstract.
The Smiths
4/5
A bit more lushly orchestrated than their other stuff. Shame that this is their final album because I think they were going in an interesting direction. As far as final albums, this is definitely one of the better ones.
The Modern Lovers
3/5
Actually, I'm pretty sure plenty of people considered Pablo Picasso an asshole.
Megadeth
5/5
One of the greatest metal albums of all time if you can get past Dave's voice.
Rush
5/5
Man, I love a side long prog epic.
Flamin' Groovies
5/5
Man, I absolutely loved this. They're like a slightly more punk rock version of the Stones. And look at that album cover. These guys just exude coolness. This is the kind of no bullshit rock and roll that I love and discovering music like this is exactly why I signed up for this challenge.
Ute Lemper
2/5
Man, this is a bummer. I really love the musical arrangements and I wish they had someone like Kate Bush or Bjork singing. It just sounds like bad musical theater. 2 stars just because of the arrangements.
Thelonious Monk
4/5
First time listening to Mr. Monk. He has indeed earned such a badass name.
David Bowie
5/5
Bowie's first true masterpiece. The first of many.
Kanye West
4/5
I miss when Kanyes antics were interrupting pop stars at stupid award shows and not nazi edgelord shit. The music was much better.
The Rolling Stones
3/5
The more Stones albums I get, the more I'm convinced that they are a better singles band than an album band.
Pentangle
4/5
Sounds like something I would hear at the ren faire and since I'm a huge fucking dork I thoroughly enjoyed it.
5/5
There's only 3 songs on this record, but all 3 of them rule, so easy 5 stars. Prog is awesome.
Elvis Costello
5/5
Just a great rock and roll record. Mr. Costello has a ton of albums on here. Maybe too many? But this one for sure belongs on any serious great album list.
Ghostface Killah
4/5
Wu Tang is forever.
Bruce Springsteen
5/5
