I've never expanded my musical knowledge before, and beginning with reggae was probably not that smart. I enjoyed the album overall and I am happy to have added it in my register, though I can say it's not my genre. (And I can't give Bob Marley anything but praise)
This is the first time i listen to folk music and I really liked the experience. The calming guitar paired with harmonized poem-like lyrics that tell a story in each of the songs made me really enjoy the album, and I see myself listening to it again in the future. Some highlights are: "Homeward Bound", "The Dangling Conversation" and "For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her". "Flowers Never Bend with the Rainfall" and "A Poem on the Underground Wall" are also very nice songs.
My first impression on hip-hop, and a very good one. Really liked the story telling and the profound meanings in some of the songs. Also liked how all the singular lyrics seem to tell whole different stories on their own. I can grab each one and fit them into my life in a way even if I wasn't from a "m.A.A.d city".
Probably the polar opposite of the previous album good kid, m.A.A.d city, with easy to understand lyrics and funky instrumentals. Enjoyed the album and see myself relistening to some songs.
Even though "most" (most is a weak word) lyrics are about two lovers breaking up I enjoyed the style of the album overall and its lyrics, pretty emotional in some songs. I think a band like this would be great to experience live.
A couple nice tunes, but nothing really caught my eye, so I don't have much to say. Reminds me of The Doors
Goddamn. I could not be a fan of electronic music but I didn't like this album at all. The instrumental at times felt like it was created by punching a keyboard and the lyrics were so repetitive I was forced to skip some parts, and I'm a TOOL fan who's used to 15 minute long songs. (e.g. the outro to the last song couldve just been "I'm going to repeat this line for a very long time, for a very long time, for a very long time, for a very long time). This could have definetly been a revolutionary album at their times, but it's simply not for me
