Dizzee Rascal · 1 likes

I just know this gave every classic rock elitist on this website a heart attack, the album itself is pretty cool, really crazy for 2003, gets a little repetitive though

3/5
Pretty interesting soul stuff, cool orchestration, liked half the songs

Count Basie & His Orchestra
3/5
Nice jazz stuff, some pretty cool parts though very samey
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
3/5
It's fine, the first and last song we're pretty good and the rest was pretty boring but the last song made it a 3 star
Rocket From The Crypt
3/5
A third of the songs were good, I got tired of their shtick halfway through
Jah Wobble's Invaders Of The Heart
3/5
Pretty interesting and weird, got old pretty quick but still a nice sound
Lorde
3/5
Some pretty cool beats but doesn't do that much for me, some pretty great songs like the intro
Einstürzende Neubauten
3/5
Another testament to this website's affinity for hating anything unique. Pretty fine industrial stuff, they just seem to rely on the same sounds too much
The Stranglers
3/5
Very post-punky kind of style, some really great stuff here but they don't wander far from their style
Soundgarden
4/5
Countless bangers here, amazing guitar sound, a bunch of amazing hits here like Black Hole Sun, one of the best albums in grunge
Abdullah Ibrahim
3/5
Just another good jazz album, nothing really outstanding but it's pretty cool
GZA
5/5
Enter the Wu-Tang is my favorite Hip Hop album of all time, and this really is the best solo project of the group. This is possibly the greatest produced hip hop album ever, this has RZA's best beats, my favorite beat oat is 4th Chamber. GZA is also an amazing MC with great wordplay, and the features are stacked. This is the ideal hip hop album.
Sparks
3/5
Pretty cool kind of art rock, starts sounding the same after a little bit though
Steely Dan
3/5
Immense vibes but the songs don't really do anything outstanding
Lupe Fiasco
3/5
Expected a lot more from this, pretty underwhelming bit some fairly good songs
The Prodigy
4/5
Countless bangers on here. Love the hip hop kinda influence
Nas
4/5
One of the most important rap albums of all time. Nothing but amazing songs here and Nas is a lyrical genius. This album just doesn't have an emotional connection for me to be a 5.
The Dictators
3/5
A pretty early punk album, it seems to be making fun of itself which is cool but honestly not that interesting
Wilco
4/5
Really good mix of experimental stuff with the indie folk rock style. Plenty of amazing songs here.
The Smiths
3/5
Don't like The Smiths that much, and it's just new wave to me, I have to say I do enjoy the vocals quite a bit.
Common
4/5
Beautifully produced album, Common is a really talented rapper, very uplifting sound, Be (intro) is one of the best beats ever.
The Avalanches
4/5
Amazing beats, I prefer DJ Shadow's Endtroducing... but this is still a beautiful album. Title track is outstanding.
The Fall
3/5
Heard some good things about The Fall, and this is my first album. Pretty good, the drums are really loud in the mix but solid post punk stuff
David Bowie
3/5
There's just some way better David Bowie albums. There are classics like Fame and the title track but just not my favourite of his
The Mothers Of Invention
3/5
I prefer Zappa's solo catalogue, still pretty nice though
Coldcut
3/5
Interestingly produced album, just lacks variety at some points, still some pretty big bangers here like Fat
Afrika Bambaataa
3/5
It's cool. Pretty early rap and the beats are good. Good flows here and there. Every other song was good
Kendrick Lamar
5/5
To Pimp a Butterfly is probably the most highly regarded album of the past 20 years. And for a good reason. Kendrick pulls influence from old African American styles like jazz and funk, and uses this to display what it's like to be a black man in America. No other album really has a concept like this. Every song here is absolutely outstanding and it executes everything it sets out to do perfectly. Kendrick's ability to put his ideas on full display, as well as his songwriting, is as good as you can get. Each song has a profound message which is easy to understand yet still complicated in concept. Songs like Alright which is probably my favorite song here has become a staple in the BLM movements now. There are some songs here that are undoubtedly classics. The production on this record honestly could not get any better, the lyrics are some of the best Lamar has ever written, and everything has defined a whe generation. You have the poem that occurs throughout the end of Many tracks here, which takes full form in the closer, which leads to a fake interview with 2Pac. There is absolutely nothing I can complain about on this release and is for sure a perfect album. My favorite songs are Alright, The Blacker the Berry, and Wesley's Theory.
Red Hot Chili Peppers
4/5
Classic album, my favourite of theirs is Stadium Arcadium but so many amazing songs here too
Missy Elliott
3/5
Good album, there's pretty good beats just gets pretty weird and the lyrics aren't good.
Curtis Mayfield
3/5
It's pretty funky but I feel like I've heard this album a billion times before. Just inoffensive soul stuff.
Megadeth
4/5
One of the greatest metal albums ever. I really don't have much of a personal connection with this but the riffs and the overall instrumentation is really great, so many bangers here
Black Sabbath
5/5
One of the greatest metal albums ever. I really don't have much of a personal connection with this but the riffs and the overall instrumentation is really great, so many bangers here
The Black Crowes
3/5
Good Southern rock stuff, I liked about half the songs, lots of these hit for sure
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
3/5
Neil Young just ain't the most interesting artist for me, last half was good though for sure
Pulp
3/5
Liked this quite a bit. Quite a bit of good songs here and the instrumentation is fairly unique.
Snoop Dogg
4/5
Classic album right here, great production, love snoop's voice. Really nothing bad about this album.
Metallica
4/5
Metal classic, I prefer Ride the Lightning but still really amazing songs here like Orion.
5/5
Top 3 albums oat for me. Every song is amazing and you're getting bangers like the title track and moonage daydream but also some emotional stuff like rock n roll suicide and five years.The writing is absolutely perfect, great storyline too.
Tom Waits
3/5
Not one of his best works but still really enjoyable, title track really works well. There's many songs that are a little boring but this album is still good.
Mj Cole
3/5
It's okay, not the biggest fan of 2 step but there's some cool production here
U2
3/5
Just some normal rock stuff, definitely a lot of bangers here though like Mysterious Ways
Santana
3/5
Cool Latin rock type of stuff, really expected to like it more though it got a little boring after a while
Peter Frampton
3/5
Some classics here but there's a shit ton of filler, live but it doesn't have the charm of a live album
Stan Getz
4/5
Great jazz album, the vocals are so warm and the instrumentation is so chill, Girl from Ipanewa is absolutely Amazing.
Fever Ray
3/5
Solid art pop, kind of electronic album. Very Bjõrk-esque and I do enjoy about half of the songs
Beatles
3/5
Pretty fine album by The Beatles, some.filler here but I do really like Eleanor Rigby
The Lemonheads
3/5
I like it, a lot the same though, heard other stuff that sounds just like it, great songs here though

4/5
My favourite by the Beatles. Every song is at least good and there's stuff like I Want You and The End.
Iggy Pop
3/5
Not the best from Iggy but still very solid, lots of interesting stuff here
The Rolling Stones
3/5
Expected to like this a lil more. Some classic songs but a lot of filler, the Stones have way better

5/5
Top 2 pop album of all time. Beautiful singing, great production, the first half is full of a ll my favourite songs and the second half is a nice mix of experimental stuff.
The Chemical Brothers
3/5
Fairly interesting production, this type of music just tends to blur for me and a lot of the songs were just there
Black Sabbath
5/5
The best black sabbath album, basic pick but every song here is absolutely amazing. This album got me into metal and therefore also got me into music in general, it holds a really special place in my heart. RIP Ozzy

3/5
Solid electronic rock stuff, some really cool synths are here and it's fairly enjoyable

Too Beatles-esque for me but still some cool stuff here

Average 50s jazz album, singing is pretty good though
Air

Classic post-punk album. Love the dark atmosphere, so many bangers here, just an amazing album all around
Robert Wyatt
3/5
Pretty boring overall but there were some cool parts
Bebel Gilberto
3/5
Daughter of João Gilberto, pretty solid, like the production
The Velvet Underground
4/5
Extremely influential, also amazing songwriting here, Heroin is an amazing song and I really like Venus in Gurs and Sunday Morning. One of the best out there.
N.W.A.
3/5
Very important albums gor rap but there are a lot of misses here, but also some all-time classics.
Pink Floyd
4/5
Every song here is good, not their best by any means and it's not outstanding but still really good
Simon & Garfunkel
3/5
Pretty fine. A lot of it is pretty boring but some songs really hit for me.
Nine Inch Nails
4/5
Great industrial stuff here. Plenty of amazing songs like Hurt (though I like the Johnny Cash cover more) and Closer.
Gang Starr
3/5
Pretty good but I thought I would like it more, some.good production but it got boring halfway through
LCD Soundsystem
4/5
Amazing production here. Someone Great is an alltime favourite of mine. The songs might go on too long but I don't mind at all

Liked this. She has a great voice and some pretty recognizable sings here.
Arctic Monkeys
3/5
Can't say I'm the biggest Arctic Monkeys fan but this is the best thing I've heard from them so far
Joan Armatrading
3/5
Pretty good folk rock style, first half of the album was like a 6/10 and the second half was an 8/10.
Bonnie Raitt
3/5
Some good things but a lot of whatever, enjoyed it just enough to be a 6/10 though
Fatboy Slim
3/5
Good production, the songs here are more interesting than most other things I've heard from this genre.
Neil Young
3/5
This is about the same as any other Neil Young album. Pretty boring with a couple solid songs
The Police
3/5
It's good, has some classics here and the worst songs aren't bad at all
3/5
Very boring but didn't have anything bad about it, at least there was some enjoyable parts
Arcade Fire
3/5
My first Arcade Fire album. It was good, expected a lot more but it doesn't seem to be one of their best according to others
De La Soul
4/5
A great hip hop album. Production is clean. Great rapping, extremely underrated stuff.
Steely Dan

Got pretty boring but there was some fun stuff here,
Adele
2/5
She obviously has a great voice but goddamn this was one of the most boring and one-dimensional things I've heard
Franz Ferdinand
3/5
Definitely some pretty good songs on here, Take Me Out is a favourite of mine but there are also some good deep cuts
The Modern Lovers

Expected this to be better though still very solid. He has a really nice voice
Pretenders
3/5
Fairly good rock. Definitely some pretty memorable stuff here but a lot of whatever
Norah Jones
3/5
Another kinda boring with a great voice on it, though there's definitely some cool songwriting moments on here
The Darkness
3/5
The dude's voice is pretty annoying but the instrumentation is fairly enjoyable, nothing really bad about this it just doesn't do anything interesting
Manu Chao
3/5
Another boring album, the instrumentation is kinda cool but really doesn't do much..This guy has quite a good voice though.
The Prodigy
3/5
This is around the same quality as Fat of the Land for me. Coll production and some good songs for sure buy nothing I'd come back for
Oasis
3/5
First thing I've heard by Oasis, and it's pretty good, does nothing that separates it from other rock stuff but still has some great songs
Living Colour
3/5
Pretty fun rock album, great basslines ans it is quite funky.
Marilyn Manson
2/5
This was extremely boring, there were only like 2 or 3 good songs, nothing bad though really but it's all the same
David Bowie
3/5
I
Depeche Mode
3/5
Pretty solid album from Depeche Mode. There's some really catchy stuff on here and enjoyable production.
The War On Drugs
4/5
Actually very enjoyable. Some real nostalgia coming off this too. Red eyes is genuinely a great song.
Tim Buckley
3/5
Can't say this was all that interesting. There was some redeemable factors but his voice doesn't interest me that much. There's other artists that do this type of stuff better though I did enjoy some songs.
The Doors
3/5
First half was really good and second half was disappointing, expected to like this more than I did, still solid though
Femi Kuti
3/5
Just normal afrobeat stuff, heard way better stuff sounding like this but not bad
My Bloody Valentine
3/5
Pretty close to Loveless in terms of quality, maybe not as much but they're both very similar to me, I do like the atmosphere occasionally
Elton John
4/5
There's a couple filler tracks but there's just so many bangers that I can't give this less than 4 stars
Jorge Ben Jor
4/5
Very good, one of the best I've heard from Jorge Ben, amazing grooves on here.
Tracy Chapman
3/5
Not my style of music but there was a song or 2 I enjoyed
Super Furry Animals
3/5
I mean it was fairly interesting, with some cool production choices but I wouldn't come back to it
Sly & The Family Stone
3/5
Solid funk record, I don't find myself coming back to it much but it definitely does that sound pretty well
Patti Smith
4/5
Very great Art Rock and Proto-Punk album. Every song here is very good I just don't find much replay value.
Iron Butterfly
3/5
Enjoyed this quite a bit. Title track is of course a classic and I liked some other stuff on here.
Dire Straits
3/5
Pretty enjoyable, some great stuff on here like Money for Nothing
John Martyn
3/5
Pretty boring stuff but there some fairly interesting production choices here so it was enjoyable to some extent
AC/DC
2/5
Extremely boring, vocals weren't good at all but at least the hits were pretty good
The Smashing Pumpkins
4/5
A very grunge-esque 90s alt rock album, Siamese Dream has one of the greatest guitar tones I have ever heard. Very fuzzy and distorted guitars with atmospheric elements. I personally enjoy Billy Corgan's voice quite a bit. While the songs are very same-y, I quite enjoy the entire album's sound enough to where every single song is quite a highlight. On this album they aren't so focused on songwriting as they were on their next album, Mellon Collie, and more just focused on the overall style and sound. This seems like a landmark in the 90s alt rock scene to me. Some parts kind of feel dreamy, sort of influenced by shoegaze in the way it builds an atmosphere with distortion yet it is more interesting than almost anything in the genre. My favorite song on this album is Mayonaise.
Fugees
4/5
Great production on here, some great vocals and rapping performances. A couple songs I don't really care about but most here are great
Koffi Olomide
3/5
Pretty forgettable, definitely some nice instrumentation on here though so it's not bad
Prince
3/5
Definitely some pretty cool stuff on here but there's just way better I've heard from Prince
Alice In Chains
5/5
Top 5 album oat in my opinion. Would? is my favourite song ever, every song here has some much to come back to, the riffs are perfect, the vocals are passionate, the bass and drums work great and this is just a perfect album. There's an amazing atmosphere all over this that just adds so much emotion and there are countless bangers all over this.
Johnny Cash
3/5
Good but there's some songs I don't particularly care about, he has better live stuff
Goldfrapp
3/5
Pretty nice sound but it doesn't do much to get outside of its comfort zone
Thundercat
3/5
Good funky stuff here, I come back quite a bit to some songs here but also there's some songs that just don't matter
James Brown
3/5
Pretty nice couple of songs though there was some stuff I didn't really care about
Tears For Fears
4/5
The hits here are really great and the other stuff is also mostly very good, overall extremely enjoyable stuff
Neil Young
3/5
Some great songs on here but it's like ever other Neil Young album to me it's just filled with a lot of boring stuff
Van Halen
3/5
Some very good songs and guitar work though some filler tracks
Siouxsie And The Banshees
4/5
Very good post-punk album. Great instrumentation, riffs, like the vocals, there's a good sense of catchiness too.
Stevie Wonder
5/5
Top 10 album of all time for me. Every song has some much to offer and you're getting songs like As and Sir Duke which aew timeless classic this is genuinely just a flawless. Nothing is more upbeat than this.

Very good production here and also good verses. Better than 2001 imo

3/5
I liked all the more rock-adjacent folk songs on here but some of the other ones I really didn't care for. Somewhat enjoyable
Thelonious Monk
3/5
Pretty nice jazz album, about half the songs were enjoyable but not much sets it apart from other jazz albums I've heard
Sarah Vaughan
3/5
A fine jazz album but not really many songs I liked, she has a fine voice but I feel like I've heard a lot of stuff just like this

4/5
Cream is one of my favourite bands though Wheels of Fire is my favourite of theirs, still a great album here

Enjoyed this quite a bit, a couple whatever songs on here but mostly great stuff and very memorable production

Not very memorable at all but some worthy songs on here, somewhat enjoyable.
3/5
Cool post-punky live album but it's really nothing impressive, some good stuff here though
David Bowie
4/5
Very Good Bpwie album, one of his best but it's not quite as good as something like The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust
Mercury Rev
3/5
Pretty enjoyable stuff but there is just so much filler I can't give this 4 stars
Sufjan Stevens
3/5
Pretty nice folky stuff but it goes on for way too long. Cool production choices though and some good songwriting moments
Ray Charles
3/5
Some nice jazz but it has a lot of uninteresting parts, still pretty good though
Bad Brains
3/5
Not the best thing bad brains has done but pretty good stuff still
Willie Colón & Rubén Blades
3/5
Enjoyed this, nice bass and instrumentation, nothing extremely special but a nice listen
Various Artists
4/5
Definitely a top 2 Christmas Album, a lot of absolute classics here and just great for this time of year. I love Sleigh Ride
Keith Jarrett
3/5
Somewhat enjoyable but got very boring listening to just piano for an hour straight
The Beach Boys
3/5
Not a massive fan of the beach boys and this one is definitely not the best thing ever but there is some somewhat solid songs here
Beth Orton
3/5
There's some fine stuff here, I liked some production choices and she's a pretty good vocalist but there is so much stuff here that is pretty boring
Paul Simon
3/5
Pretty joce folk stuff on here, some catchy tunes but nothing special
Harry Nilsson
3/5
Nice old pop rock sound, I liked the more rock songs on here.
Wire
3/5
I wanted to like this more but there is just so much filler in here. It has a bive sound but so much extra short tracks that amount to nothing
Led Zeppelin
5/5
My favourite album of all time. This is easily their most sonically diverse album but it's also insanely consistent. I love all four sides including side D, which seems to catch a lot of dislike with songs like Boogie With Stu and Black Country. Boogie With Stu is probably my least favourite here but it still rather enjoyable. The instrumentation is obviously outstandingvut from a songwriting this album has some of the band's best works ever like Ten Years Gone and Kashmir. The sheer amount of sounds this album covers in just the genre of rock is extremely impressive. They continously made a great album across 15 tracks and about an hour and a half, also including some of my favourite songs ever like Down By the Seaside, Ten Years Gone, and Kashmir.
R.E.M.
3/5
I've heard way better from R.E.M. though Orange Crush is a great song
Nanci Griffith
3/5
Some fine folk pop but not a lot here that was good, just kind of nice
The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy
3/5
Beats were good but it got really corny. The song Music and Politics is really bad but the production definitely saved this album
Nick Drake
5/5
My favourite folk album. It's extremely simple yet Nick's voice is extremely soothing and unique and his guitar playing is very impressive. Very emotionally charged album for me and it's hard not to tear up listening to the title track.
Earth, Wind & Fire
3/5
It's okay though not many good songs. Very repetitive.
Fatboy Slim
4/5
I liked this album quite a bit, the hits like the opener and Praise You are classics but the others are also extremely memorable, amazing production all over this. Just a great album.
Sleater-Kinney
3/5
Just another pretty good punk album to me, first and last song were great though
Miles Davis
4/5
Probably the definitive jazz album. A little overrated for me but sill very good, very memorable jazz and all the songs are very good
Traffic
3/5
Kind of boring 60s rock stuff, some bangers like Pearly Queen but otherwise fairly boring
Bruce Springsteen
3/5
Good folky stuff, very reminiscent of Bob Dylan and there are some really great songs here but a lot of boring stuff too
Jeff Buckley
4/5
Classic album, amazing singing obviously and the instrumentation is also very memorable. Very emotional album but there's some songs I don't come back to much here
Arrested Development
3/5
I don't hate this as much as some people, there's some pretty good production on this thing, quite memorable just the vocal performance is a little lackluster
Red Snapper
3/5
Nice jazzy electronic music, some good songs here and pretty good production but like only every other song was good
The Strokes
4/5
Classic album, unique production, some great stuff like last nite and the title track, just a very enjoyable album.
Elliott Smith
3/5
I'm not the biggest fan of Elliot Smith, his voice is a little annoying to me but I did like some of the rock songs on here like Can't Make a Sound
The Smiths
3/5
It's pretty good but there's not much here that sets it apart from other indie pop and it's a little boring
Guided By Voices
3/5
Kind of cool indie rock but there's some stuff here that I feel like adds nothing. The positive of having a bunch of short songs though is that it's a lot more entertaining
OutKast
3/5
Some good stuff but it's way too long and bloated
Megadeth
3/5
I love megadeth but this is probably their most overrated project, some unmemorable stuff here though still some bangers for sure
Joan Baez
3/5
Some nice guitar playing and vocals but not my type of album really
Ray Price
3/5
Pretty boring early 60s stuff but there is some solid instrumentation on some songs and it's catchy sometimes
Nick Drake
4/5
A great Nick Drake album, potentially the worst of his 3 albums but still quite good. Songs like One Of These Things First and Northern Sky mean quite a lot to me and the guitar playing on this album is also pretty impressive on something like Hazey Jane I.
Hawkwind
3/5
Pretty cool space rock and there are some really awesome parts but the problem is it doesn't really go anywhere. It sounds really intense for like 9 minutes straight but then it just stop, no climax or anything
Japan
3/5
Kinda new wavey stuff here. Not much to say about it's just some solid new wave album with some cool songs like the title track
Fleetwood Mac
3/5
Pretty good tuff but not as good as Rumours, half of the songs here are kinda boring though it's still pretty good
Rush
4/5
Probably the best rush album, every song here is quite good and goon instrumentation throughout obviously
Turbonegro
3/5
Kinda cool but not a very special punky rock album. Some songs like the first couple are great but in the middle to the end it gets a little boring. Has a nice energy though
Led Zeppelin
4/5
Led Zeppelin is my favourite band/artist of all time yeat this is probably the weakest of their first 6 albums. I very much like this record though and the folky influences on this thing make it quite unique. Friends is a really good songs but also the hard rock stuff here like of course Immigrant Song and Out On The Tiles are among the best on here.
Bob Dylan
4/5
Bob Dylan has grown on me a lot recently and while this isn't among his best there are some amazingly written songs here. Even the songs that aren't highlights are also quite good
Big Brother & The Holding Company
3/5
Good blues rock stuff, ofc Janis Joplin has an amazing voice but the instrumentation here doesn't do much for me.
Thin Lizzy
3/5
It seems I really didn't like this as much as nost people, but as good as just their studio stuff to me which is pretty solid stuff but nothing extremely special.
Marvin Gaye
3/5
I don't like Marvin Gaye as much as most people but this is probably better than What's Going On for me, it's somewhat interesting and some good songs here for sure
Fiona Apple
3/5
Good but definitely a little boring, despite how unique the instrumentation is. Cosmonauts is great song though, I thoroughly enjoyed that one
John Grant
3/5
I mean it's fine but it really doesn't do anything new and the songwriting isn't anything special but I liked some of the synths here
ABBA
3/5
I enjoyed this, I've always liked Dancing Queen the most out of all their hits. I liked about half the songs though some were pretty forgettable
Kendrick Lamar
5/5
This is the actual best Kendrick Lamar album. Better than TPAB, more replay ability with m.A.A.d city being one of my favourite songs of all time but you also get the masterpiece of Sing About Me. Production here is very good but the highlight is Kendrick's rapping performances with some of the greatest lyrics in the game. Insanely consistent album, with the worst song here being Sherane which is still quite an outstanding track. A great mix of conscious stuff here with the all-time bangers of m.A.A.d city and Money Trees. Nothing but amazing stuff on here. One of my favourites of all time.
Def Leppard
4/5
This album is technically not very good but Def Leppard was one of my favourite bands around 4 years ago so this is very nostalgic for me. The first 6 songs are actually insane and the title track of course is great. Nothing but hits on here.
