Man I miss the old Kanye…. 😔

I’m not sure what it was, but this album was awesome. Totally different vibe than what I’m used to.

3 stars.

Never listened to the whole thing and loved it. Especially the interludes!

Brazilian psych rock could grow on me but it needs time

This was probably way ahead of its time in the 70s. Had a lot of fun with this one.

One of my all time favorite rock albums. Feel like it has it all. Vocals, guitar riffs, the freakin harmonica on You Shook Me. Hell, the drums on Dazed and Confused alone are enough to carry this album to 5 stars.

Haven’t listened to much of the Smiths and I think it may stay that way. Every song sounds the same! I don’t hate it, but I don’t love it either.

I don’t mean to be that guy, but my kids can do this. And they do it just a little better.

No Tim, just goodbye.

This on a rainy day was magnificent. Great timing

I kinda loved this! Such a vibe even though I would’ve never listened to it otherwise.

Easy 4.5 if I could. Loved it

I’m not sure what it was, but this album was awesome. Totally different vibe than what I’m used to.

Removing the pre-teen angst and nostalgia this album held, it’s not terrible. But it’s not good. Rollin remix with Method Man Redman and DMX is what gained two of these three stars. I can appreciate that Durst doesn't take himself too seriously. Also I didn’t realize what chocolate starfish was until well into adulthood so bonus points for creativity Fred.

I hope Ray won’t see this 2 stars I’m giving him 😬

Rock Against Ass. Don’t Say Motherfucker, Motherfucker. Rendezvous with Anus. The songs were okay but these guys are great at titles that’s for sure.

Easiest 5 so far

Was fun but boy did it get old by the end.

I actually LOVED this album. So much that I listened to more of the Sparks. It’s hard not to have mad appreciation for a band that I feel like paved the way for bands like Queen. Fringe 3-4 but a 3 is a disservice imo

Wow album released on my birthday in 2002! A 14 year old me getting ready for sophomore year. Little did I know that 23 years later I’d listen to it for the first time and love every single second of it. 👨🏻‍🍳💋

Sorry Ozzy this ain’t it for me

Listening to the album made me instantly hungry for BBQ because I feel like every BBQ joint has this album on repeat

This album was WEIRD. I’ve heard track 2 Redondo Beach years ago and loved it. But these lyrics from track 7 for example: When suddenly Johnny gets the feeling he's being surrounded by Horses, horses, horses, horses Coming in in all directions White shining silver studs with their nose in flames He saw horses, horses, horses, horses, horses, horses, horses, horses Do you know how to pony like Bony Maroney? Do you know how to twist? Well, it goes like this, it goes like this Baby mash potato Do the alligator, do the alligator And you twist the twister like your baby sister I want your baby sister, give me your baby sister, I dig your baby sister Rise up on her knees Do the sweet pea, do the sweet pee-pee”

Man I miss the old Kanye…. 😔

I wish I could give this 0 stars

I hate saying this but it’s not the worst album I’ve heard on this journey. But it still sucks. And Kid Rock is a boot licking bitch

I legit cannot believe my parents let me listen to this at age 12 😬 I feel like I shouldn’t listen to it as a 37 year old. But the guy can rap

I’m not listening to this for 2 hours

I can’t quit you Kanye! 😭

Jeff is so much more talented than Tim.

One of my very favorite albums of all time

5/5 for the music. The skits were too much

👨🏻‍🍳💋

I’ve actually heard this album so much that I’m kind of bored of it by now. But that doesn’t change the fact that it’s a 5/5.
