Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not

All Ratings

Master Of Puppets

Metallica

1/5

No. Lulu only.

Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not

Arctic Monkeys

1/5

Makes anal cunt sound like the beatles

Back To Black

Amy Winehouse

3/5

Great pipes, can't wait to see what she's up to in 2025

Birth Of The Cool

Miles Davis

3/5

Probably very good, but not as obviously timeless as Kind of Blue/ Sketches of Spain or arresting and challenging as his '65-'76 studio releases

At Fillmore East

The Allman Brothers Band

5/5

The birth of "jam bands with chops"; making everything else sound like shit since '71. Probably the best pop/rock live album.

Scissor Sisters

3/5

Not unfun

I’m a Lonesome Fugitive

Merle Haggard

3/5

Lonesome furtive

Hunky Dory

David Bowie

5/5

I prefer elton's tap dance song

Real Life

Magazine

3/5

Huh. More interesting than other early British punk. Probably won't revisit, though.

Buena Vista Social Club

4/5

Skippy

Innervisions

Stevie Wonder

5/5

Secret prequel to the plant one

The Only Ones

3/5

I can't tell if this is really good or really boring, but Americans did it better. I'll enjoy the source material: Television and Blondie.

Aftermath

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Liked the Lindsey Buckingham Green cover

Five Leaves Left

Nick Drake

5/5

I don't know when I'll be in the mood for this- I get more of what I need from Belle and Sebastian and Donovan- but more to revisit here than Pink Moon, which is almost everything people say it is.

Ten

Pearl Jam

1/5

WHY MOMMY WHY?!?!

Eternally Yours

The Saints

2/5

Maybe punk isn't good

Pacific Ocean Blue

Dennis Wilson

3/5

I don't get it

Rust Never Sleeps

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

5/5

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida

Iron Butterfly

2/5

I guess you had to be there. Done better by The Doors, Deep Purple, and Vanilla Fudge

A Short Album About Love

The Divine Comedy

3/5

I suspect this is very good, but can't decide if I like it.

Rid Of Me

PJ Harvey

3/5

Not "my thing", but much better than anticipated given her contemporaries

Achtung Baby

1/5

Worse than possible

You've Come a Long Way Baby

Fatboy Slim

4/5

This rocks for what it is, can't really imagine better. But if Rust Never Sleeps is a 5...

Lady In Satin

Billie Holiday

2/5

I'm sure this is great.

What's Going On

Marvin Gaye

4/5

Undeniable, but the only MG album I revisit is "I Want You"

Rio

Duran Duran

4/5

Probably the best of this sort of thing, right,

Transformer

Lou Reed

4/5

There are probably 5-6 better Lou albums, and maybe 12 I'll throw on before this, including Sally Can't Dance.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Elton John

5/5

I can't tell if a few songs in the middle are mediocre or if the rest is just that good. Probably both. Tumbleweed with the two "bonus tracks" is still the better double album.

At Folsom Prison

Johnny Cash

5/5

I always knew of this, but didn't think I would like it. It's fascinating.

They Were Wrong, So We Drowned

Liars

5/5

I was right, so I didn't.

Shaka Zulu

Ladysmith Black Mambazo

4/5

Obviously ripped off Paul Simon

Blood On The Tracks

Bob Dylan

5/5

lol

Lady Soul

Aretha Franklin

5/5

Holy shit, that band.

Let's Get It On

Marvin Gaye

3/5

I think I am supposed to like this a lot

Tapestry

Carole King

5/5

Best Todd Rundgren album, by far

Vol. 4

Black Sabbath

2/5

I might not get it. I hope I don't get it. I think I get it.

Abbey Road

Beatles

5/5

Tigermilk

Belle & Sebastian

5/5

They really had it from the jump

Amnesiac

Radiohead

5/5

Probably the best Radiohead. I can't fathom how this could be seen as a step down from Kid A.

Ace of Spades

Motörhead

4/5

An (exact) early BÖC and ZZ Top cross can't be bad, and it isn't. Need more time with this

1999

Prince

4/5

I'm supposed to like this more. I like Dirty Mind and Purple Rain the correct amount.

So Much For The City

The Thrills

1/5

False belle and Sebastian

Nebraska

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

This is clearly "good", but I don't connect with his voice, lyrics/ characters, or the production usually, though the atmosphere is pleasant and "correct" on this album. I still think the other singer/ songwriters with important bands did it better

Suicide

5/5

To my delight, this is just Frankie Teardrop variarions for an entire album. Peak belligerence

Shake Your Money Maker

The Black Crowes

1/5

Disgusting

Franz Ferdinand

2/5

Remembered this as good, it is fine

Bookends

Simon & Garfunkel
