11/10. Incredible album.

Not my cup of tea, but just not the kind of music I'm into.

Album starts out hot af. Bass is bumping and the vibe is groovy. I've, of course, heard of the second song on the album. It's well-known for a good reason. It's groovy and the inclusion of orchestral instruments really adds to it. Man, the album keeps it up as the songs go along. Each one has great vibes. 10/10.

I can appreciate the musicianship and performance, but not my style.

I'm just not personally a fan of Cee-Lo Green. I don't like his voice at all. That being said, there were a few songs I did like. Favorite Tracks: -Scrap Metal -Childz Play

Incredible album. 10/10. I wanted to listen to this one again right after finishing it. Favorite songs: -O Grande Amor

Favorite Songs: -Pleasant Street Not memorable for me. 5/10.

Enjoyed the listen. 7.5/10

5/10, not my style.

Absolutely neurotic album. The beats are sick, the lyrical content is crazy, but the album has a great flow to it. 8/10.

Forgettable for me.

Incredible album from start to finish. An all-time classic. 10/10.

One of the greatest rock operas ever made. First half is better than the second half, in my opinion. 9/10.

Very good listen. Thoroughly enjoyed this one during my high. It meshed with the vibes perfectly.

I'm not usually into this type of music, but I enjoyed listening to this one. Really good music to jam/dance to. 7/10

Decent album, wasn't hooked, though. 6/10.

The musicianship is awesome, love the inclusion of all the various instruments, but I just don't like Mick Jagger's voice.

Really enjoyed my listen of this album. 7/10

Phenomenal album. 8/10

Not for me, but I can see the appeal, especially considering the backstory of the album. 4/10

A few standouts, but an album that felt like it should've been 15-20 shorter. 5/10

6.5/10

9/10. Really enjoyed this album as a post-rock enthusiast.

Not my favorite Yes album. 6.5/10

6/10

Iconic for its time.

Pretty good. 7/10

Some songs were a little much, but some I very much enjoyed. 6.5/10

Incredible album. 10/10

8.5/10

8.5/10

I would've rated this higher, but I just couldn't connect to the lyrics.

Metamorphosis was my favorite song, but I didn't vibe with some of them. 5/10

First song starts the album off amazingly. I'm already digging it. After finishing the album, I still liked it a lot, but definitely enjoyed the first half more than the second half. 4.5/5

Not my cup of tea, so it's hard for me to leave an unbiased review. The genre switch-up midway through the album was refreshing.

Incredible for its time. Miles Davis walked so others could run.

Pretty good. 3.5/5

Not really a fan of the story on this one, especially repeatedly using the word "rape" at the end of the album.

3.5/5

4/5

4.5/5

Not my thing, was kind of bland. 2.5/5

Genuinely a terrible experience for my ears. I couldn't wait for this album to be over. It sounded like a bunch of people were handed instruments they've played for 1 hour and were told to make an album.

Enjoyed the album overall. 3.5/5

YES is always such an interesting band to listen to. Their sound is very unique across all the different elements. Somehow, they all just come together and make for a good listening experience. 4/5

Reminded me of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Absolutely incredible album. 5/5

Incredible album. Favorite songs: Blue in Green, Flamenco Sketches Rating: 5/5

Sigur Ros has such a unique sound, but this wasn't my favorite album by them. Still good, but it felt like it was missing something at times. 3.5/5

Really, really fun album. 4.5/5

3.5/5

4/5

4.5/5

Great album. 4.5/5

3/5

Forgettable for me.

I enjoyed this album the further I got into it. I didn't think I enjoyed Karma Chameleon, but it's been stuck in my head the past few days.. 4/5

Really incredible album. The ending was phenomenal. I wanted to listen to this album again right after finishing it the first time. 5/5

Probably one of the best live albums of all time. 5/5

First part of the double-LP is amazing and super enjoyable to listen to. The second part of the double-LP is terrible and will make your ears bleed to listen to.

Just couldn't keep me engaged.

Just couldn't get into this.

3.5/5

Incredible album filled with beautiful songwriting.

Up and down album for me. I think the last few songs are much better than the beginning. 3.5/5

3.5/5

Absolutely immaculate album.

3.5/5

Not really my thing. Just didn't vibe with it.

Absolutely incredible album.

Not my favorite Bowie album.

Just didn't grab me like I thought it would.

Man, Jailbait is such an offensively horrible song that it immediately gives the album 1 star for me. The guitar work is absolutely phenomenal, though.

4.5/5

Phenomenal album from start to finish.

I can imagine this was probably a phenomenal album of its time, but it has held up completely in the face of our current climate.

Nothing particularly bad about this album, but I didn't connect with it.

Didn't really connect with it.

Lot of bangers on this album.

Man, there's just something about this album. It makes my ears feel good.

I could not get into this album at all. The vocalist's voice sounded like nails on a chalkboard for me.

Very forgettable for me.

A handful of the songs just go on too long. Didn't really dig this album.

Hit and miss. Definitely some hits on this one, but others just fell flat. 3.5/5

4.5/5

3/5, hit and miss.

4.5/5

Truly terrible for me. The only reason I made it to the end is because I have an honesty pledge to listen to every album on this list to the end. I couldn't wait for this to finish. The vocals and the rest were both equally awful.

Boring and unforgettable.

Not sure why this was on this list, just feels very out of place.

An all time GOAT'd album.

Another immaculate album.

4/5

Truly awful. 1/5

Not my thing at all. The songs just felt... idk. Just didn't like it.

Didn't really vibe with this N.E.R.D. album.

I don't feel like the orchestra was a good match for Metallica's music. That or the audio mixing was just... bad.

I've never been a fan of Korn, so this review is quite biased. The vocals and the bass both just sound terrible to me.

Didn't vibe with it, just felt really cringe-y.

3.5/5

3.5/5

Chill, neutral listen for me.

An absolute banger from start to finish. Wow. I immediately ordered this on vinyl after listening to it.

An all-time great.

4/5

An all-time great.

Crazy album. I want to give it a 5, but some parts honestly overwhelmed my brain. There's a lot of technical talent in this album, no doubt.

Favorite song: Child in Time

One of the best live albums I've ever heard. Incredible display of their talent.

Beautiful

Favorite song: Some Folks Is Even Whiter Than Me

Didn't really enjoy this one. 2/5

Eh. Extremely unforgettable for me.

Really sick album. An incredible debut album for the band.

Did not enjoy this. Not my thing.

3/5

3.5/5

Honestly, this isn't it. Just a bunch of noises and it never got better. Almost every song overplays its welcome.

Honestly, this slapped. The bass was funky/groovy, and there were some really fun songs to listen to on this album. Great listen.

Man, I just hate the vocalist's voice. Woodpecker from Mars and War Pigs saved this album from a 2 for me.

Nothing stood out.

Not a fan of the voice, but it's not bad. Just not for me.

Not my favorite Beatles album, but still great in parts.

Incredible album. Just short of getting a perfect 5/5 from me. If I could give 4.5/5, I would.

Didn't really vibe with this one, although some songs were better than others. 2.5/5

Great Christmas album.

Some songs are catchy, but some songs are downright insufferable. Most feel like they run too long.

Funky, groovy, and fun.

Just not for me at all.

I did not vibe with this one at all.

I thought this album slapped.

Some of the tracks slapped, but some of them were duds or lived out their welcome. 2.5/5

A truly awful listening experience.

3.5/5

Didn't end up liking this one as much as Purple Rain. Still good, though.

3.5/5

4/5

Very forgettable. 2.5/5

Forgettable, but good in some places.

To be honest, this was not my favorite album by Queen.

Not bad. Some tracks were more enjoyable than others. 3.5/5

Truly terrible.

Too long for its own good. A lot of the songs sounded just like each other.

Indisputably one of the GOAT albums.

Boring most of the time.

A truly terrible listening experience.

3.5/5

It's... okay.

3.5/5

Not for me. 2/5

4/5, one of my favorite albums as a teenager/young adult. Some songs are way better than others. Favorite song: Genesis

Did not enjoy this at all.

I'm just not the biggest Rolling Stones fan, but this was alright.

Coldplay just doesn't do it for me.

The Beatles from Temu/Wish.

Great voice, but really outdated and a rip off of other songs, particularly from the black community.

Incredible album from start to finish. 4.5/5

Honestly? Just... bad. It felt really experimental in ways that did not make the songs better. Maybe it just wasn't for me, but it felt like the album was really conceited.

Eh.

Eh. Just not for me. 2/5

3.5/5, some tracks were great, some were more alright.

This album hits all the right places in all the right ways. An impeccable album from start to finish. An album I immediately bought on vinyl. An album I immediately wanted to listen to again. An album.

Motorhead isn't my jam, but the album itself isn't bad at all.

Wasn't my favorite, but I like blues.

Great in spurts, but forgettable other times.

Entirely forgettable.

Extremely boring.

Unremarkable for me.

Honestly super generic. Nothing about this album excited me.

This album has a handful of bangers and is entertaining throughout.

Incredible album. I listened to this on repeat several times when it came up on my list.

Absolutely immaculate album from start to finish. The title of the album wasn't lying.

Some bangers and some songs which made me wanna bang my head against a wall. Good songs: -There is a Light That Never Goes Out -I Know It's Over -Never Had No One Ever Terrible songs: -The Boy With the Thorn in His Side -Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others -Frankly, Mr. Shankly

Listen, I know Bjork walked so Aurora could run, but some of this was just complete garbage. Not a fan.

I'm not really a big fan of Bob Dylan, but this was enjoyable.

I admire this album for what it accomplished, but the reason I don't push this to a 4 is due to a lot of songs sounding extremely similar to each other. The flow feels extremely repetitive.

This was a bit too experimental for me. For me, a lot of the songs just felt jarring.

Very boring to me.

Not a fan of this at all.

3.5/5

Eh

Boring

Immaculate funk album.

Not bad. A testament to its time.

The ending was way better than the beginning, but nothing to write home about.

Didn't do it for me.

Not sure why, but this just didn't do it for me. It felt all over the place. I'm sure there's a genius behind the work, but this is me ranking the albums for me, so 2.

Spectacular.

3.5

I'm a huge Curtis Mayfield fan, but I wasn't the biggest fan of this one. Still a 4/5.

2/5

2/5, extremely boring for me.

To put it lightly, I absolutely hated this.

3/5

A complete masterclass of a debut album. One of the greatest albums of all time and my personal favorite from Led Zeppelin. One of the easiest 5/5's for me.

Did not like this at all.

Every song sounded the same and the ending was awful.

Dreadful

Another all-time classic. It doesn't get much better than this for classic rock.

Not my favorite Bowie album.

Eh, just not the biggest Grateful Dead fan.

Truly one of the worst listening experiences of my life.

I know it's Nirvana and it's an iconic album, but it just didn't do anything for me.

Man, I am just not the right target audience for this. This was a dreadful listening experience for me.

3.5/5

Basic 3/5 album

Wasn't my thing

Not my thing

One of my personal all-time favorite guilty pleasure albums. Such a fun time.

Definitely different. Definitely not for me.
