Popular Reviews

Never heard it before, but this was great. Essential prog rock. Like a funky and poppier Dark Side of the Moon.

Good songwriting, boring songs.

Not my vibe, loud but boring.

Already listened to this, classic 4.5/5

Good 60s pop/rock. Nothing special or no big standout songs (other than Time of the Season), but good for an easy summer-y listen.

Johnny's crowd interactions are very fun, but musically I much prefer his Folsom Prison album.

Solid boom bap 90s rap with added flair and great production.

Solid 80s pop. First two songs are amazing, the rest of the album is a slight let down from there.

Never heard it before, but this was great. Essential prog rock. Like a funky and poppier Dark Side of the Moon.

Solid and I'm sure very influential, not really my cup of tea though.

Elvis is a legend but this album doesn’t really have any of my favorite songs of his and doesn’t flow very well.

Pretty solid, feels like a blues-ier Beatles album.

Good, not really my thing though.

A bit uneven, but some amazing guitar work. Sounds very ahead of its time.

Decent, not really my thing and I'm not a big fan of live albums. Great stage presence though.

I’m simultaneously impressed and bored by Queen. Killer Queen is a classic but not a lot of other standouts to me. Brian May rocks though.

Hadn’t heard of this one before, really solid though!

Good Brit-pop, but not great. A couple of hits for sure, but I prefer their previous album.

Not Bowie’s best, and not that interesting otherwise.

Classic, ahead of its time. Lots of great tracks, maybe isn’t the most coherent as an album, but a very fun listen.

Classic, lots of great tracks.

Pretty great, kinda long. I’m more of an Aquemini fan.

Impressive trip hop album, I found it a bit boring though.

Nothing special, sounds like a lot of other synth pop of that era.

Has a lot of the elements of music I like, but I found this one pretty dry and with no real standouts.

Great easy listening alternative rock.

Not my thing.

Interesting, hadn't heard this one before or heard of the band.

Great stuff, absolute classic. Could be a little shorter and more condensed.

Sounds like an okay Beatles album.

She’s a great songwriter, and this is some solid easy listening 70s pop/rock.

Not good. Why is this on here?

Okay alt rock album, a lot of same sounding tracks.

A lot of same-y sounding stuff. Catchy I guess.

Good songwriting, boring songs.

Goth rock masterpiece.

It’s a classic for sure and Dr. Dre is a genius, but I’ve never actually enjoyed this album as much as others seem to.

Eminem’s best by far.

Decent rock album.

Sprawling and ambitious, some great tracks, but uneven overall. His newer stuff is much more focused and I prefer that.

Ambient - yes, music - ?

Good background music, a couple standouts.

Sounds like Sabbath. Good, but peaks after the first song. Tony writes some killer riffs though.

Great easy listening rock album.

Banger after banger.

Eh.

I just don't get jazz.

Otis' voice is a great mix of rugged and soulful. Nice, short blues album.

Decent, not as good as their previous albums.

Their worst album.

Decent psychedelic album.

Snooze.

Pretty good, nothing too special but held my attention.

Good easy fun rock. Pretty same-y though.

Solid psychedelic album, I appreciate how creative the Byrds were.

Murder mystery sucks though.

Classic at this point, loaded with fun songs.

Still don't think it's the best album of all time (Rolling Stone), but it is pretty great.

Not my vibe, loud but boring.

Good, not great. Catchier than I was expecting.

So much Britpop on this list. Decent, but I prefer their second album much more.

Pretty solid. More ballad-y than I was expecting, but a lot of classic songs.

First and last songs are all time greats, everything in between in pretty good, but not anything special.

Crazy how much better the Stones got as they went on.

If Bowie had a more annoying voice and worse instrumentals...

I guess I just don’t get it.

Now that’s what I call hair metal

A Halloween album not about Halloween.
