The Cars
The CarsIt's alright, nothing revolutionary. It feels no different from other similar artists from the same era. Actually, the other artists were doing it way better. Doesn't really feel like an album that is a must listen. 2/5

Haven't heard of them before (I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to hip hop) so I had no expectations for this one. I was pleasantly surprised! Really good instrumentals and the rap had a nice flow (will read the lyrics later, my non-native ears are bad at understanding rap in English). It was fun to hear Nelly Furtado on one song too. My only complaint is that the album is a bit too long, it could've been 5 songs shorter. 3/5
Heard it before. Tiny Dancer is an absolute classic and makes me emotional, one of my favourite songs by Elton. The title track is another highlight of the album. Overall a nice album. 3/5
I've heard of The Flaming Lips before but never checked them out. Let's just say after this album I will need another 20+ years to listen to them again. I like indie/alternative but this album is an example of alt rock that I hate. No interesting melodies, no interesting moments, the album dragged on and I was already waiting for it to end after the 3rd song. 1/5
I've only heard one song from this album before (you can guess which one) so I knew what sort of vibe it will have. The album was alright but also nothing stood out to me. Didn't have a bad time listening to it though, so I can't say it was bad. Just not spectacular. 2/5
According to my Last.fm stats I've heard the first song from this album some time ago but it was my first time listening to the album in full. While I do enjoy the general vibe the album failed to make me pay attention to individual songs, they kind of blended together for me and started sounding samey after a while. I get that it's an important and influential album but it's... just not for me. 2/5
Nothing but respect for Stevie but most of the albums generated for me thus far have been rather slow paced and this is yet another one. At least the instrumentals are interesting in this one and there's a bigger variety between songs. Not really good for a rainy lazy day like today though, I need something more energetic. 2/5
Heard it before. The Asphalt World used to be my song to look at the wall and be sad to. This Hollywood Life is another track I love. The overall mood of the album is quite gloomy but I think I like it better than their first album. Feeling generous today so I'm giving it 4/5
The generator is generating a lot of hip hop albums for me for some reason. I've heard some 2pac tracks before but this is my first time listening to a full album. Eh, sorry but not my thing. I think I'm coming to the realization that I'm a music over lyrics person and hip hop is a genre where lyrics are the main and most important part. So that means I just don't really care about any particular track on this album because I just don't pay attention to any lyrics when the instrumentals are quite samey. 2/5
Heard it before and don't remember liking it. Elvis Costello is just so lame to me I can't force myself to like him. I keep forgetting he's from the UK so listening to him I feel as if I'm listening to an American doing an imitation of British rock from the 70s. The vibes are just off. Allegedly the 1001 list has a bunch of his albums and I don't think I'm gonna survive this. 1/5
Heard it before, multiple times. One of the best trip hop albums ever, the vibe is unmatched. Period. 5/5
I'm pretty sure I must've heard this album before because my dad is a fan. Meh? It's not the most terrible thing I've ever heard but their signature sound makes all the songs sound the same basically. And I just don't like AC/DC in general. 2/5
Heard some songs from it before. And as somebody who was really into 90s British music when I was a teen I can just TELL that the author of this list must've been a teen/young adult in the 90s in the UK because there's no other explanation for why somebody would think this album a must-listen for everybody around the world. The tracks I like from it I do like, but as a whole it isn't exceptional in any way. 2/5
This is my punishment for saying that all Rolling Stones tracks sound like nothing to me yesterday. This album doesn't help. The songs are fine but I still have no idea how people recognize that it's The Stones before Mick starts singing. I feel like I could've heard the same songs on different artists' albums. What a nothingburger. 2/5
Oh, late 80s rap is not my thing I guess. This type of beat and flow just feels a bit silly to me. 1/5
Heard it before a million times. ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS EVER. Peter Gabriel's voice is like a hug when you're sad. There's not a single bad song on this album. I love it so much. 5/5
Never heard of them and for a good reason it seems. On principle I'm skeptical of American bands from the 70s that are called punk because I think The Ramones are one of the most embarrassing bands ever. This band here? About as proto-punk as Cher whose cover is on this album for god knows what reason. The Stooges were 10 times more proto-punk 6 years earlier. The Dictators clearly haven't heard of them. 1/5
Heard it before. It's a fine album but once again hard to call it an essential album to listen to when they weren't even one of the major bands during the britpop era. But all that aside it's still quite ok. 3/5
Never heard of them. I was a bit scared when I saw that on Spotify most songs from this album have under 100k streams but I didn't have a terrible time listening to this. Doesn't sound like a groundbreaking album but I needed some calming music so that's nice. Giving it a generous score. 3/5
Heard it before. The first album where they tried dropping their goofy britpop shtick (but still some songs are goofy-ish). What can I say, I have some nostalgia for Blur. 13 is better though. 4/5
Heard it before. Not my favourite R.E.M. album but it's R.E.M. so I cannot say a bad thing about them, it's still a good album. 3/5
Heard it before. Not massively into Kendrick but this album is the best I've heard from him I think. The instrumentals on this one are interesting, especially Wesley's Theory. But the album is toooo loooong. 3/5
