I have never really listened to Coldplay, and if I have, they clearly did not leave an impression! Listening to this album, I feel (for a lack of a better word) - underwhelmed. I must have heard hundreds of songs that sound like these. They sound simple, but not in a way that truly hits with its simplicity! Paradoxically, I think this is exactly what the appeal is- The familiarity of it! It's something I would put on when I want to listen to music without actually wanting to engage with music. When I want to zone out sitting in a semi-crowded bus at the end of a tiring day! That being said, there are a couple of songs I would definitely return to: Politik, and The Scientist! Album rating: ββ1/2
Can I just say how much I loved listening to this album? Every single song made me feel so happy - like I'm going off to a picnic with a few close friends! I loved the lilt of the vocals and the instruments, I loved the playfulness, and I loved the whimsy in the songs that leaned more towards the quieter side! Favourite songs: Coconut, Moonbeam Song, Without you Album rating: ββββ1/2
Started off feeling this is okay okay... But somehow I began to enjoy it the more I listened- especially in the 2nd half! Didn't really understand the lyrics - the references and the cultural context (as is generally my experience while listening to hip hop) But the rhythm and the beats were so much fun! I also surprisingly liked the repetition (all songs sound kind of the same!) I think this is one of those albums I need to listen to more than once to truly like it! Songs that stood out: she watch channel zero, party for your right to fight, louder than a bomb Album rating: βββ1/2 I should definitely listen to rap more! Makes me feel upbeat and optimistic about life without being sickly sweet!
Lyrics were cool. But the music itself - not my jam! π₯² The instruments were a bit too overpowering for my tastes - both in terms of its volume and texture! Album rating: ββ
Ngl, when I saw that this album has been tagged with a "hard-rock" label, I was low key dreading listening to it! But this was surprisingly fun! I liked the bluesy undertones in what I would otherwise call "screamy music". ππ (The screaming wasn't too bad though!) Hard rock might never be my goto genre but listening to this album has made me excited enough to at least give other music in this genre a chance π¬ Songs that stood out: I actually liked almost all songs, but especially Baba O'riley and Bargain Album rating: ββββ
13 year old me might have vibed with this - but that's also questionable! This was boring af π« Album rating: β
I don't understand music in which the melody evokes a certain emotion and lyrics evoke a completely different emotion. After a point I stopped listening to the lyrics and just enjoyed the melody! Very chill and palatable, though all songs sound the same π₯² This is the kind of music I am very happy to listen to if it comes my way, but I will not go out of my way to listen to! Album rating: βββ
Screamy vocals are never going to be appealing to me, but I have to admit- this was super catchy! π₯² I think I get why the AC/DC are so popular! Album rating: βββ1/2
Listening to this album was such a delight! π₯Ή The lyrics were simple, melody and rhythm charming! It felt like Iβd been whisked away to a quaint little town β some songs had me hopping from one cozy party to another, while others had me strolling down a cobblestone street on a rainy afternoon! The best song was Sunny Afternoon (but I have to admit that I have heard that song before π ) Album rating: ββββ
Just couldn't get through this album
Stylish, heartfelt, and comforting! Want to curl up with a blanket and gaze out of the window watching the rain while listening to this album! π₯² Album rating: ββββ1/2

Wow! Listening to this album was an experience! Haunting and existential - both lyrically and musically! This is an album I'm definitely going to revisit! I especially loved Changes and Laguna Sunrise, but I loved other individual songs as well! Album rating: βββββ

I don't usually listen to goth rock, but this was fun! Very sad-angry, "I want to be strong, independent" girl vibe! π Reminded me of the tv-show Wednesday- which I had enjoyed tremendously! π Album rating: ββββ
