Beatles is not my thing...

Strong 80's vibe is present. But not in a bad way. My experience with Rush is very limited for some reason but anyway this listening experience was actually very nice.

Hard shit! 32 songs in one album. Ok, half of them are bonus tracks... :D Gotta love it!

Boring. Not the best Bowie to me.

5 songs is enough to me from Young. Whole album is just too much of whining... But those 5 songs are good.

Excellent background music for working.

Better suited for background ambience than focused listening. Album is too slow for me. More pace needed. Also it gets a bit too weird for me in the last couple of songs.

Classic album has not aged very well... The soundscape is irritating, and especially the ticking sound of the bass drum really gets on my nerves.

Start was good but then it went to a boring side.

Dusty is onece again artists that I have heard a lot, but mostly in some compilations or soundtracks. Anyway I have liked what I hear every time. It was a very pleasant experience to listen the whole album this time. So ten points.

Totally new band to me. Once again first half of the album was better than the last. More or less nondescript music for me. No points.

So not my thing.

This is too ambient for me. After discussions with the wiser ones I understood the meaning of this album in this list. But still. Not my thing.

Pretty much unremarkable. Neither good nor bad.

Once again, boring and uninteresting music for me.

Back in basics. This album has been spinning on my analog and digital turntable for years. Not the best Black Sabbath to me as an album, but still very good. I don't know if it's Ozzy's voice or Iommi's guitars but Black Sabbath goes never to backround-music -category. It is always music that needs to be listened.

The Smiths hasn't been part of my music listening life ever. And when I listen to this album I really understand why. I need more distorted heavy guitars and Morriseys singing has never been my cup of anything.

At first I was like wow! But then it got too monotonous until it started to improve and get more interesting towards the end. I have never heard about this artist before, so once again this list proved it's existence for bringing me new experiences.

Indie rock whining. Not my thing. It was very hard to listen the whole album. Once again, I found myself wondering what merits earned this album a spot on this list. The reason may be the amount of the albums sold...

Classics

Upbeat and smoothly flowing music. Not indie whining, but more energetic rock. I liked it. Quite a lot, actually.

My interest in folk music exists, but it is very selective. I had never heard of this particular artist before, so I eagerly anticipated pressing the play button. However, within the first couple of songs, disappointment was already palpable. Too slow and too atmospheric. This band was described in spotify to be part of late-2000s indie-folk boom. Also it was described as folk-rock. I found very little folk or rock there, indie maybe. Once again, maybe this is part of this list because it sold so well. Few songs started in an intriguing way but then there was nothing else.

Last time I listened this album must have been in the early '90s. I think I didn't notice the bass and guitar riffs back then. They are actually pretty cool. Also you can have mixed opinions about mr Jacksons singing style and voice, but somehow this album works to me right now. That funkish groove is there and it hits me. Only few of the last songs in this album lowered it's stars in my mind.

This list has proven it's value for me once again. Only song that I knew from this album was Don't You Want Me and I can sing it along. I wasn't even able to name the band that has made it. Now I'm much wiser, thanks to this list. Otherwise, this synth pop is not so much my thing, so two stars for that one song.

Terrible to me. Hard to listen. I don't even know did I listen all songs...

NIN has always been in the edge of my musical interest zone. I don't know why. Maybe because other artists took my whole interest back then. My first contact to the band was when I played Quake and fired all the Nine Inch Nails towards my enemies :) So now I listened the whole album from start to beginning first time for a very long time. And I liked it. There was a duller phase in the albums mid-section, but then it kept getting better and better until it reached Hurt. What an ending to an album. But that dull phase lowered my rating one star.

First I was like Yeah! Then I was like Booooooring... Sultans of Swing saved something. That's all.

Not the best album in the world, but still ok. Wouldn't listen this by my own. Glad that it sounds good and Sting can sing. Over and out.

I’m not in the mood to list clichés about AC/DC. In my opinion, the album is good, though quite monotonous. Then again, so is the whole band. Their musical formula is undeniably simple and repetitive, but at the same time, it’s their trademark – the riffs, the rhythm, and the voice of Bon Scott (for me, Bon Scott has always been the real one).

Got the idea why this album is on this list, but anyway it's no good. At first, I was like “yes, this is going to be great,” but then I ended up being disappointed. Repititive and a bit boring. That Mojo did not work for me...

This is type of music (post-punk, new wave...) does not hit me at all. Sounds are metallic and dull. Singing is just whining once again. No points.

This kind of music is tough for me. Like a lot of folk styles, Raï sometimes leans into a disco vibe, and when it does, I just can’t get into it. There were a few songs on the album that really clicked with me, but there was also a lot of that disco stuff I didn’t like. And that cover of ‘Imagine’? It just didn’t work for me. The two stars I gave are just for the few ‘original’ songs I actually enjoyed.

It's been a while since I last time listened to Jimi. Goddamn this album sounds good! Nothing to add, loved every minute. For some reason Gypsy Eyes hit me hard this time. The groove is relentless, and Jimi’s guitar work on that song feels so raw and funky.

I’ve never listened to a full Depeche Mode album before, and now I’m wondering why—I’m really liking this. I’m usually not a huge fan of this kind of electronic music since it’s often too slow and polished for me, but this album actually hooked me in a way. That said, it started to fall off toward the end, which cost it a star or actually two in my ratings.

Bruce falls into the background music category on my list, which is why I don’t have much to say about this album.

Doors are okay, but they’re not my favorite. However, they do remind me of the fond moments spent at the local library, listening to their albums back in the days. That nostalgia is what earned this album its third star.

The moment I hit play, it felt like the perfect time for Dylan. I enjoyed it from start to finish. Sure, it’s somewhat monotonic—some might even call it boring—but this time, it resonated deeply with me.

If I understand correctly, this album holds a remarkable place in recording history, which likely explains why it’s included on this list. It’s also incredibly easy to listen to, and when someone mentions jazz, this style is exactly what comes to mind for me. That said, I nowadays lean more toward modern jazz in my personal jazz listening. Still, this album is undeniably entertaining and expertly performed—I really have no criticisms to offer.

Rush is firmly on the OK side of my musical taste—good, but not quite enough to make me piss sunshine. Three stars, done. On a funny note, though, the 20-minute opening track features a riff around the 18:20 mark that’s strikingly similar to the opening riff of Dingo’s song Rio Ohoi.

It may have been 20 years since I last listened to this album, and it was never really my thing. It’s ok, but nothing more.

And once again, an album I haven’t listened to in a looong time, probably around 20 years. It brings back a wave of nostalgic memories, but that’s about it. A few hits, nothing more to me. My main issue with this band has always been their lack of clear direction. They seem unable to decide whether they want to create radio-friendly pop or lean into grunge, resulting in a blend that often feels somewhat uninspired. The lyrics are sharp and hit their mark, but for me, that alone isn’t enough.

I’ve never listened to a full Arctic Monkeys album before, until now! It was the perfect soundtrack for this Friday morning. This album had the right energy and enough hooks to reel me in. 4 stars.

Bubblegum pop, as Spotify calls this band, isn’t my thing. Getting through this album from start to finish was a real struggle.

I had completely forgotten just how simplistic and uninspired this album is. Also the sound quality is terrible: flat and lifeless. Definitely not worth revisiting.

Alt rock. Not my thing. Thanks. Bye.

Once again, this album highlights a key reason for this project: to explore albums I wouldn’t normally listen to. Still, not my thing.

Johnny Cash’s music, as a whole, may not be overflowing with intricate hooks or vibrant melodies, yet it has an undeniable way of resonating deeply with me. His singing style is often described as monotone, even bordering on dull by some, but I find something profoundly compelling in its raw simplicity. I don’t mind the lack of vocal flourishes or elaborate instrumentation; in fact, in this case, I love it. There’s something about his music that feels honest, unpolished, and deeply human, and that’s what makes it so special to me.
