It's a Johnny Cash album. Nothing more to be said.

Coldplay
3/5
Not a big Coldplay fan but this album was better than I thought it would be. There were a couple of songs I recognised but most were new to me. None saved to listen to again.
Yes
3/5
The songs were all so so long. Heart of the sunrise was my standout, loved the last minute or so. Already had Roundabout saved, no new songs saved.
Radiohead
3/5
I don't really like Radiohead. I just don't like the singer and some of the songs on this album made me feel almost a bit tense. No songs saved to listen to later.
5/5
Starts really strong and manages to keep up the pace all through the album. Absolutism love it. Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds is definitely my favourite, with When I'm Sixty-four coming in second. Three songs saved to listen to again.
The Smiths
4/5
Really liked it. Saved three songs.
Led Zeppelin
2/5
Various Artists
3/5
Pretty good Christmas album. I was a little late in getting to it (and I'm also in Australia so I think it was a day late) so I'm a bit over it, but there are some good classic Christmas songs on there.
Nick Drake
2/5
Not really my thing. Felt a bit too old for my tastes. None saved to listen to again.
R.E.M.
3/5
Santana
3/5
Didn't mind this one. Not too much singing, just vibes.
Scott Walker
1/5
I think I gave this a fair chance, I didn't listen to the last couple of songs but judging by how much I hated the rest of the songs on this album I really can't imagine they would've saved it for me. I just hated this album so much.
Brian Eno
4/5
Some songs i liked, some i didn't. Saved one to listen to in future.
Leonard Cohen
3/5
T. Rex
3/5
Not my favourite but I didn't hate this. I do wish the entire album was more like the b sides. So many of the other's were just so one note and boring.
Prince
3/5
Yeah I just really don't enjoy Prince.
Cypress Hill
3/5
I didn't mind some of the songs but probably wouldn't listen to it again.
The xx
3/5
I didn't hate this, it's just boring.
On Hold was already in my rotation, no additional songs to listen to later.
Kanye West
2/5
Don't mind a couple of the songs (Black Skinhead) but some of the lyrics made me so uncomfortable (I'm In It was so gross). There's also much autotune and i wasn't a huge fan of some of the experimental elements or sampling.
Kanye West
3/5
I actually found myself kind of enjoying this album. I like it a lot better than Yeezus. I enjoyed All Falls Down, Spaceship, Jesus Walks, and Never Let Me Down.
Kanye really does make some very interesting music. It's not 100% my thing but I can appreciate it. It's a shame he's such an awful person.
Creedence Clearwater Revival
4/5
John Prine
2/5
I'm not sure how I feel about this album. I didn't hate it but it's a bit too old man rock for my tastes.
Lightning Bolt
1/5
40 minutes of noise. Made me anxious. Hated it.
Small Faces
2/5
Frank Zappa
3/5
Either a 2 or a 3.
The music is good, I just really prefer songs with lyrics. I also prefer shorter songs. 12 minutes really is too long for one song.
The Clash
4/5
Really enjoyed this one. Dont think it was quite perfect but a very enjoyable experience nonetheless.
4 songs saved to listen to again + London Calling which was already on my list.
Oasis
4/5
The Adverts
3/5
I listened to this yesterday and I really can't remember a single song on it. Didn't love it, didn't hate it. It gets a 2.5.
Patti Smith
2/5
Really not a fan of the vocals or the intense, dour music
Ray Charles
4/5
A little over the top at times but I'd listen to this one again.
The Mamas & The Papas
4/5
New Order
3/5
Didn't mind this but not quite my thing
Einstürzende Neubauten
2/5
After reading the other reviews I was expecting something pretty terrible, but Kollaps actually wasn't that bad.
Would I listen to it again? No, probably not.
Was it a completely joyless experience? No, not really.
Most of it is just noise. Some of it was quite unpleasant. I'm sure one of the songs straight up sampled a drill. Sometimes I flinched. But the album really wasnt the worst thing I've ever heard.
Ryan Adams
2/5
Really didn't like this. It was too slow and whiny for me. Best song was Shakedown on 9th Street but it sounds like it's from a totally different album.
Pretenders
3/5
I didn't mind this. It's a bit too much for my tastes sometimes but when it's good, it's good.
The Jesus And Mary Chain
1/5
I did not like this at all
Elvis Costello
2/5
Radiohead
2/5
I was bored. Karma Police is a good song, I wouldn't listen to the rest of the album again.
Michael Jackson
3/5
There are some good songs on here but they're all like 30 seconds too long.
Count Basie & His Orchestra
2/5
Just instrumentals
Goldie
2/5
The Smashing Pumpkins
3/5
I just don't like Billy Corgan's voice. I think I'd love this of someone else sang it.

Stand outs: Life in Tokyo, Quiet Life.
Red Snapper
2/5
Depeche Mode
3/5
I enjoyed the first 9 songs, but after that I was pretty keen for it to be over. I don't enjoy instrumentals too much and they also got a bit too intense and moody.
Gorillaz

Black Sabbath
3/5
Stereo MC's
2/5
Beck
2/5
The Smiths
4/5
Kanye West
3/5
I think I liked this more than Yeezus and less than the College Dropout. So many long songs and the language once again bothered me, "Yeezy reupholstered my pussy." How can anyone listen to that line without embarassment?
The White Stripes
4/5
The Undertones
4/5
Prefab Sprout
2/5
Pretty generic 80s songs.
808 State
2/5
Sam Cooke
4/5
Usually don't like live albums, but this one really had me wishing I was there watching it live.
Arcade Fire
3/5
I half enjoyed this. Some of the songs were a bit grating.
Lucinda Williams
2/5
Jack White
4/5
Genesis
3/5
I really like Invisible Touch (the song, haven't listened to the whole album), so i thought I'd really like Genesis. I am now realising it was stupid to think I'd enjoy a band Street hearing one song.
I didn't really enjoy this album. There were a few songs that i liked, but I didn't enjoy most of them. I have also generally struggled with longer albums and this is definitely a long one at 1.5hrs. I was enjoying disc 2 more than disc 1 but then it just became instrumentals.
Bruce Springsteen
3/5
This was a bit all over the place for me. Hated Nebraska, liked Atlantic City, disliked Mansion on the hill, rinse and repeat...
3/5
Really not into instrumentals but this is pretty solid background music.
Lou Reed
3/5
This didn't sit quite right with me. It feels really depressing but also sweet at the same time?
Fats Domino
5/5
So good I listened to it twice in a row. Loved Blueberry Hill, Going Home and Mardi Gras in New Orleans.
Throbbing Gristle
2/5
I was certain this would be a one but it kind of grew on me. I even mostly enjoyed AB/7A. I'd recommend reading up a little on the band and band members, they're interesting people and some are still making music today in theirs 70s.
Elvis Presley
4/5
I know Elvis Presley already so I knew I'd enjoy this album. I don't love his covers though. Ray Charles and Little Richard do I've Got a Woman and Tutti Frutti a million times better than Elvis does.
Beastie Boys
3/5
This really grew on me. The samples are great. The lyrics are sometimes cringeworthy but fun. But I don't think I'd listen to this again.
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
2/5
The Smashing Pumpkins
3/5
R.E.M.

3/5
A Tribe Called Quest

Generally not a fan of hip hop music but the rhythms on this one are fun, would be good background music if I'm ever in the right mood.

There are some fantastic songs on this album (You're my Best Friend, Bohemian Rhapsody!!), but it's just gets dragged down by the bad songs. What even is I'm In Love With My Car??

I don't know about this one. I can't decide if I liked it, I can't really see myself listening to it very often. Painter of Women was pretty weird.

I was enjoying it at first but it was just too long and it all felt too similar.
Frank Sinatra

Elevator music. Glad this one was short.
The Who

Good album, some of the songs were quite strange though. Better listened to in one go, rather than listening to the songs separately.

Radiohead

Dr. Dre

I enjoyed the vibe of the album but a lot of the lyrics were quite juvenile. It also does feel a lot like a Snoop Dogg album, he's featured so heavily.

Not really my thing- not a huge jazz fan, but the politics did feel fairly current.
Lou Reed
3/5
The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy
2/5
I think this is the worst rap album I've listened to so far as part of this project. It felt like I was at a poetry reading or something. Overly pretentious and wordy.

3/5
Solomon Burke
3/5
I thought I'd really enjoy this album based on how much i love Cry to Me, but the other reviews are correct, the other songs on this album are just a bit lacking. My two standouts were Cry to Me and Someone to Love Me, i don't think I'd listen to this album again.
Bruce Springsteen
3/5
I wish he'd stop mumbling, its driving me crazy.
Another album i thought I'd like more than I actually did.
Basement Jaxx
2/5
I knew I remembered Basement Jaxx from somewhere and it took until I listened to Red Alert for me to place them. It was also the only song I really enjoyed on the album.
American Music Club
2/5
I was ok with the first few songs, they were reminding me a little of The Smiths, but then things got a little weird through the middle of the album and ultimately I was a little bored.
