Aretha Franklin
4/5
The most popular song is by far the lamest on the album. There are some total bangers on this album and damn what a voice. Better than expected
Norah Jones
2/5
Way too mellow for me. Kind of rough to get through
Oasis
4/5
Creedence Clearwater Revival
5/5
This is an easy 5 stars. Classics and some of my favorite CCR songs (Lodi and Green River)
Common
5/5
Holy shit this is awesome.
Elton John
3/5
A few great songs and a few forgettable ones
Arrested Development
3/5
definitely some good songs. some boring. decent. thought I would have liked it more though
Pink Floyd
1/5
I have never been so happy for an album to mercifully end.
Metallica
5/5
Classic. Brilliant heavy metal album
John Lennon
2/5
One great song. One pretty good song. I found the rest pretty boring
Linkin Park
4/5
Very strong. Only a few skips for me. Some absolute classics
Deep Purple
3/5
This is a 3.5 for me. Much better than anticipated.
Slint
1/5
Wow. Never again
Neil Young
3/5
Better than anticipated. I can actually handle Neil Young which I never thought I could
Gotan Project
4/5
Weirdly listenable
The Who
3/5
I would personally avoid live albums on this list. This is fine. By the end it's just self indulgent and you want it to end
CHVRCHES
3/5
Pretty good. Would give 3.5 stars but gonna round down
Fever Ray
2/5
Not horrible but really started to drag at the end.A shorter, tighter album would have worked better IMO
Dusty Springfield
3/5
The songs are not the best but her voice sure is
Michael Kiwanuka
5/5
An out of nowhere, genre-vague delight! Love it. Some songs are a little slow for me but they are offset by others that are so good it almost hurts LOL.
Gang Starr
4/5
I liked it more than I would have predicted.
U2
3/5
Try as I might I just cannot get into U2. For me there are 2 great songs here and the rest are a struggle to get through. I tried. Honestly I did
Pixies
1/5
A very strong contender for the worst garbage I have ever heard. Self indulgent noise. And I expected to love this LOL.
Sinead O'Connor
3/5
This is a complicated one. Many of the songs are tremendously boring to me, yet I love her voice and what she stood for. Plus Emperor's New Clothes is an all time favorite of mine. Gonna go with a 3
Kings of Leon
3/5
Some decent jams. Couple clunkers. Singer has annoying voice
Derek & The Dominos
3/5
The songs suffer from being too long. Many far too long. The vocals are not great for me. The album is driven by amazing guitar work though. The last song is one of the worst I have ever heard lol. 3 stars for great guitars and Layla being an all timer
Sam Cooke
5/5
Wow this is a banger start to finish. Redeems live albums for me. Outstanding
Pixies
2/5
Another complete waste of time Pixies album. This band sucks. Hopefully no more on this list
Happy Mondays
3/5
Some pretty good tunes on here. Remind me of the Soup Dragons
Parliament
4/5
Just a great listen
King Crimson
1/5
Self Indulgent never ending noise. I prayed and prayed for this to finally end
Kanye West
4/5
Dude is a huge jackass but this is a great album
Bob Dylan
3/5
Not as good as some of his other ones for me. Little drab. You probably had to be there
The Young Gods
2/5
I am a pretty big Industrial fan but this was mostly a miss for me. A few redeeming moments but not many
Tricky
3/5
all over the place for me. sometimes painful and annoying but then redemptive at other times. Decent background music if nothing else. Want to give it a 1-2 or a 4 at other times. I will average it out at a 3
Mudhoney
2/5
There is so much incredible grunge music to choose from, so not sure why this was chosen lol. Just a forgettable Nirvana ripoff to me.
Bruce Springsteen
4/5
I'll be damned this is a good album. Lost me with a couple of the slow songs but there are some darn good ones too, and one fantastic one!
Cyndi Lauper
3/5
Better than expected. Never a big fan, but I mostly enjoyed it
The Fall
3/5
Decent
James Brown
4/5
This is pretty much a jam
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
4/5
Wow i like elvis costello much more than i though i did
Metallica
3/5
I love metallica until the end of time but this was a bit too much for me
Bobby Womack
4/5
Groovy
Santana
3/5
Screaming Trees
2/5
another boring and poorly represented grunge era album. can't see myself listening to this again
Rocket From The Crypt
4/5
Surprisingly listenable and fun. Reminds of supersuckers. would definitely listen to this again
Gang Of Four
3/5
Good. Almost great but not quite.
Garbage
4/5
very good album. Several great songs. Almost a 5 but a little too long. Could have trimmed 5-6 songs and this would have been no brainer 5. Really its a 4.5 for me.
Bruce Springsteen
2/5
really struggled to get through. I tried, honestly, but after numerous corny ballads I just couldn't do it anymore
The Band
1/5
shocked by how bad this was. some of the worst vocals i have ever heard. started a 3. then was a 2. Rage 1 by the end.
AC/DC
5/5
Simply one of the best albums ever made. No skips. A masterpiece
Radiohead
3/5
most tolerable album i have heard from these guys which i generally cannot listen to
Alanis Morissette
5/5
Many standout songs. Great voice. Stellar album
The Libertines
3/5
Thought I would like it, then actually played it and thought I would hate it. Turns out if was....fine lol
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
4/5
Pretty decent. Would give 3.5 but 4 is too high so it gets a 3. Gonna listen to again and see what changes.....and i was wrong. like it more than i realized. 4
Boston
4/5
I mean this album is cheesy but it is also fucking full of bangers LOL
Cowboy Junkies
4/5
had every intention of disliking this but instead was enchanted by the singers incredible voice. Well played, album generator, well played
Television
3/5
Decent for forgettable for me
King Crimson
2/5
several 10+ minute songs had me praying for this stupid thing to end. Enough with the King Crimson already. I have had enough for several lifetimes now.
Led Zeppelin
5/5
Learning this album is going to be gratifying. Maybe too long, some songs drag but wow this is loaded with outstanding music. First pass through it is a 4 but as I listen more and grow more familiar with it, i have no doubt this will be a 5. Rover, Houses of the Holy and Trampled Under Foot really stand out thus far
Ice Cube
3/5
the music itself is good but the misogyny is stupid at this point
My Bloody Valentine
1/5
i don't know why this list is so into the albums of never ending pointless noise but this is yet another great example. i would put this on a shorter list of albums to make sure you avoid until you die
Adele
3/5
Trying not to be overly influenced by the amazing voice and what she is capable of makes this a 3.
Kelela
3/5
Decent R&B but kind of forgettable for me. This is not my genre really. Great voice. Album seems pretty personal
Astor Piazzolla
3/5
Sounded like a Tom and Jerry cartoon - which is not a bad thing lol
The xx
2/5
i do not know how this could be considered something you have to hear before you die. i mean it is fine background music but it really had zero impact on me in any capacity whatsoever
The Who
3/5
Dare I say I find the Who overrated. Quel Horror
The Velvet Underground
2/5
i have tried so many times with this album and I just can't
Yes
2/5
instrumental stuff was the best part. could not do the vocals. would not care if I ever heard again
Beck
4/5
Very good album. Too long, if trimmed to about 40 min I think this could have been a 5.
Wu-Tang Clan
4/5
i mean this is pretty epic
Björk

just terrible
Jurassic 5
5/5

4/5
Aged well. Very good album. Probably better than I remember
Bob Marley & The Wailers
5/5
man this album ends so strongly
Stevie Wonder

4/5
Always have enjoyed this album
The Auteurs
3/5
liked it more than i thought i would.
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

very difficult to make it through this slow, plodding funeral dirge. it is obviously subjective but to me this is barely music. just torture
Frank Zappa
4/5
wow this is funky and i liked it
Van Morrison
5/5
excellent
Big Brother & The Holding Company
3/5
Better than expected and I did not know Janis Joplin fronted a band for a while. She elevates things. Too much jamming and riffing kind of stuff for this to really shine for me.
Miles Davis
3/5
little too boring for me but still definitely enjoyable
Tangerine Dream
4/5
i mean i can listen to this. it's good background working music honestly
The Flying Burrito Brothers
4/5
not what i expected. in a good way.
Cypress Hill
4/5
forgot how good these guys are. certainly not mad at this one
Marvin Gaye
5/5
i mean if you don't love this album you are just trying to be cool or something stupid
Slipknot
2/5
ooof. man i tried with this. some redeeming things early on but wow did it fall off at the end. speaking of the end this was waaaaaay too long. try as i might i am just not a nu metal guy. this was a 1.5 for me. i will round up because i just had a coffee so i am feeling generous.
Alice In Chains
5/5
5 for Layne Staley and 5 for Jerry Cantrell. Oh and also there are amazing songs on this album so 5 for that too lol
Jethro Tull
3/5
never really sat down and listened to jethro tull. not entirely my vibe but a rock n' roll flute? fuck yeah why not? let's do it!
David Bowie
4/5
I finally found some David Bowie i can stand to listen to!
Serge Gainsbourg
2/5
meh. started off decent. wasn't paying attention by the end.
Gorillaz
4/5
some exceptional songs on here but too long
Led Zeppelin
5/5
Timeless masterpiece
3/5
decent 80's pop if you are nostalgic for that kind of sound (I am) but not sure that is a must hear album?
Madness
3/5
had to listen to their most popular album becauser amazon did not have this one, it was fine
Ray Charles
5/5
this pretty much was amazing
The Flaming Lips
1/5
listening to this for an hour was akin to torture porn for me. maybe if this album was 5 minutes long it would be ok?
Silver Jews
3/5
way too slow for me, but for this style i must admit i tolerated it better than expected lol.
Foo Fighters
4/5
i have always loved this album and sometimes wish the foos still sounded this raw. can be hard for me to distinguish nostalgia from how good this really is admittedly. 4.5 stars
Sebadoh
2/5
like this wasn't good but i made it through. says more than some of the other garbage on this list LOL
Prince
3/5
some absolute HOF classics but i kinda thought the rest of it would be better. also way too long

5/5
this is album generator at it's best, i loved this album

1/5
i'm sorry. this was just terrible and very hard to listen to
Soundgarden
5/5
love this album and always have. the biggest hits are not the songs that move me though
The Black Keys

Venom
3/5
weirdly i did not hate this lol
Rufus Wainwright
1/5
man this almost killed me to get through
3/5
it was fine
Sarah Vaughan
4/5
wish they wouldn't do live albums. nonetheless this lady is incredible
Neil Young
2/5
man this was rough. here is the thing, neil is just a terrible singer. it's hard to get past that on a good day. on this one, it overwhelms everything else
Lou Reed
4/5
this turned out to be pretty decent. pleasantly surprised
Charles Mingus
2/5
i try with jazz like this, i honestly do but i guess i just find it background music in the end. that is on me
The Killers
2/5
i find the killers to be music for people who want to like good music but don't know how or where to start, so they like the killers. sure there are 2 good songs here so i will give it a reluctant 2 but really i could not wait for this to end.
The Replacements
4/5
better than anticipated
The Beach Boys
3/5
reminds me of being a kid. almost gave it a 4, but the end is pretty bad.

Robert Wyatt
1/5

classic

3/5
meh it was fine
Mike Ladd

3/5
mostly lame
The Doors
5/5
some of the songs are whatever, but man the high points are frickin high!

Not as good as some of the others but still really solid. love the last song too
Megadeth
4/5
Not as familiar to me as other albums of theirs but pretty damn good

better than anticipated. the slow songs wore me down but the more uptempo stuff was pretty groovy
4/5
wow funky goodness here
Radiohead
1/5
I have tried many times with these guys but for me this album and the band in general is torture. As overrated as anything I have ever heard.

Fantastic

fantastic
Jimi Hendrix
3/5
expected more honestly
Genesis
2/5
my god way waaaayyyy too long. like an hour too long
ZZ Top
4/5
strange i have always disliked zz top but to listen to a full album in context they hit different. focused more on the guitar and bass, less on the vocals and visuals which are what mostly annoy me i guess. huh. well played generator
SZA
3/5
better than i expected. nice voice and kind of different. not my genre at all but i was not mad at it

4/5
there are a couple clunkers but overall i like this album quite a bit. makes me feel good
Rush
5/5
i mean it has limelight and tom sawyer so insta-5
Grateful Dead
4/5
pretty unfamiliar with the grateful dead overall. liked this quite a bit. couple of dirge like slow songs keep it from 5 initially, though i suspect on subsequent listenings this may indeed go up to a 4. i was a fan

3/5
not my favorite but still doable
Bob Dylan
5/5
pretty fantastic. one of my fav Dylan albums
Bee Gees
1/5
this is ghastly

The Stone Roses
4/5
this was good, better than expected.

5/5
An effing masterpiece that helped create a genre
10cc
2/5
parts were stupid. parts were ok. most was forgettable
Cat Stevens
4/5
i have never particularly liked cat stevens. his brand of melancholy really does just bring me down and i don't care for his voice. that said, i recognize this is a pretty damn good album. well done, cat stevens, you got me
Incredible Bongo Band

3/5
too slow for me but better than anticipated. kind of enjoyed it. pleasant surprise

great album
Blur
3/5

Queen
4/5
not as familar as a lot of queen is to me but still good
Franz Ferdinand
4/5
no complaints here. borderline great
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
2/5
i guess this is elvis costello being a crooner? didn't really work for me and it is way too long. dying for it to end on the second half of the album
John Martyn
1/5
too dumb to listen to
Sex Pistols
5/5
i was always a little too cool for the sex pistols for some reason. putting that aside and actually listening to it. well...i was dumb. not surprising.
The The
3/5
Very 80s
The Human League
3/5
Don't you want me itself almost makes this whole album a 4. almost

4/5
reminds me of being a kid. and my dad. that is always a good thing
ZZ Top
3/5
i can dig this. it is like a 3.5 for me
The Vines
3/5
its fine. get free is a great song. a lot of the rest is forgettable. Def not something you "have" to hear

5/5
wow this is amazing
LCD Soundsystem
3/5
pretty decent

Air
4/5
wasn't sure what to expect here but i really liked this. great music to work to.
Simon & Garfunkel
4/5
bridge over troubled water itself kind of sucks (for me). the rest of the album is rather delightful
Metallica
5/5
A true masterpiece and Metallica at the height of their powers
Mariah Carey
2/5
i sometimes like mariah carey but in much smaller doses than this. way too long and repetitive. this just isn't my genre
Violent Femmes
5/5
this is probably a "you had to be there" kind of album and i could imagine someone hearing this for the first time hating it lol. however, for me, this is a timeless masterpiece. will listen to this until i croak
Bob Dylan
5/5
i dislike a couple songs but the rest are so good it doesn't matter. great album
Bad Brains
3/5
i just get the bad brains the way i am supposed to i guess. they are just...fine?
Kraftwerk
4/5
had no clue what to expect but i dug this. especially the first song

Leonard Cohen
2/5
meh
Buddy Holly & The Crickets
4/5
Love buddy Holly
The Electric Prunes
2/5
pretty much just a bad beatles ripoff with terrible production. not sure why i had to hear this
Dire Straits
4/5
very good. this rating may well go up with time
M.I.A.
2/5
i don't think i necessarily disliked this but i found myself becoming increasingly angry as the album went on and anxious for it to end, so i guess i did dislike it lol
Steve Winwood
2/5
man this was cheesy. like a bad peter gabriel rip off.
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
