Magnificent from beginning to end. Easily one of the greatest albums ever.

Very boring. Couldn’t get through it.

Boring. Couldn’t make it the whole way through.

Not a fan of sixties music generally and nothing here to change my mind. Sounds like songs kids would sing at school. Nothing offensive, nothing particularly interesting.

There’s a lot of Jarret concert albums and a lot of them sound fairly similar, so you probably don’t need that many. This is one of the best. Doesn’t outstay its welcome, like the longer ones. A classic for a reason.

A classic debut album. Doesn’t reach the heights of subsequent albums, but contains some all time bangers.

Incredible. One of the greatest opening tracks ever and doesn’t drop off the whole way through.

Half bangers, half filler.

Nursing home music

The aliens can keep this one.

Muzak

‘Nice’, I suppose, but not in anyway interesting.

Obviously, It’s the End of the World as We Know It is annoying as, but overall, it’s a solid 80s indie album.

Sometimes the pioneers are exceeded by their followers so much they don’t seem to be anything special. This is one of those cases. Horrible 80s synth bass.

90s muzak

Better stuff has been made by its legion of inspired followers, but still a classic.

One of the better 90s sample albums

Probably the best Portishead album. Underrated.

This is the kind of music I would pay to avoid.

OK but gets a bit twee.

Couple of OK songs but most tracks get boring fast even though they are short.

The 90s attempts to replace rock albums with dance music albums don’t really hold up, but this is one of the better ones.

Maybe the only Flaming Lips album that doesn’t sink into self-indulgence.

Never cared about Elvis.

Jazz has its place, which is soundtracks. I would never listen to this.

Surprisingly decent sound for a thrash record from this era, but the lyrics and vocals make it unbearable.

One of the best thrash albums with some classic tracks.

After Sympathy for the Devil and Streetfighting Man, the rest is pretty disposable.

Most of the Britpop era was bands putting out one or two decent singles and otherwise being entirely missable. This is a good example.

Couple of good songs.

Radiohead are a great band sometimes. Thom Yorke is an unbearably whiny singer who can’t carry a tune. Gets worse after this. Basically unlistenable.

A timeless classic.

Outstays its welcome

Twee, sacharine tosh

Not their absolute best, but a classic.

Says nothing to me.

A unique classic. Still sounds fresh after 50 years.

Peaked on his first release. Another of the great sampling albums.

Okay.

No bad Piazzolla

I just don’t like this sound.

Some earworm anthems for sure, but terrible lyrics and horrible 80s drums.

Boring

Boring

Stevie Wonder is definitely in the top 10 most overrated artists. Boring, dated sounding.

Another good sounding band with an unbearable singer.

Now my heart is full, Spring heeled Jim, and Billy Budd is about as good an opening trio of songs as you can get. One of the two classic Morrissey albums.

Grunge is the most overrated genre ever.

Never as good as their PR.

No

Sounds nice without being in any way interesting.

Candidate for most overrated album ever. Unbearable.

Music for people who hate music.

Sounds dated and the followers have done it better, but still a classic.

I just don’t understand why anyone would listen to this.

Classic jazz album, sort of thing they play in a restaurant.

Probably the worst Smiths album, so still better than almost anything else from the 80s.

Good, but not outstanding.

It’s got Living for the City, which is the only good Stevie Wonder song, so it’s his best album.

There was a thing around this period where middle aged rockers started feeling obsolete and going on about electronic music. Then they made albums which showed they didn’t really know anything about electronic music. This is like most Radiohead stuff, it’s Ok to quite good until Thom’s tuneless whining comes in.

One of the best of the 00s. Great lyrics, great music, original, much better singing than the Milk-eyed Mender.

The poster child for bands championed by the British music press on the basis of politics and class prejudices. Unbearable Brit Pop cringe.

Synthpop classic.

No reason anyone should listen to this.

Mystifyingly overrated.

The definition of catchy but dull

Horrible sound

Somewhat mystifyingly her most popular album but not her best. Rather let down by Thom Yorke’s tuneless whining.

Before they really got good.

Classic electronic album

Boring

Pompous, overblown, portentously meaningless lyrics. Another decent band with a completely unbearable singer.

Running boogie music through MIDI quantization is how to sterilize it. Ludicrously dated.

Magnificent from beginning to end. Easily one of the greatest albums ever.

Nowhere near his best

Who can listen to Kanye anymore?

Whole thing doesn’t hold up to the singles but still a classic.

Doesn’t stand out from the early 2000s alt-country mass.

Some weird stuff starting to come through in the lyrics, but the music is still saccharine crooner shlock. Later albums much better.

Muzak

Never getting past that accent

Grunge boredom.

All time classic

Take out Frankly Mr Shankly and Vicar in a Tutu and it’s basically flawless.

Turgid and overblown

Fairly decent for country.

Not the best side of the 80s

Historical significance doesn’t make it worth listening to.

Overrated due to his death, but still a solid album.

Don’t be ridiculous

Classic

Another mystifyingly overrated artist.

More jazz tedium

Bland and dated

I don’t like the galloping sound.

OK

Songs ranging from terrible to great

This vocal style and sound is dated and uninteresting.

Gets tedious fast.

One of the good Primal Scream albums.

Don’t like the vocals

Extremely irritating people but an all time classic album.

Retro tosh

OK for country

One of the most depressing albums ever.

One of the blandest things I have ever heard.

If only they’d been as big as Nirvana, we might have avoided all the lumpen grunge whining.

One of the blandest things I have ever heard.

They were in decline by this point.

Great album slightly let down by the usual Albini production issues.

Would have been better if they let the feedback rip

Couldn’t make it through this one.

Classic

Nothing especially interesting.

Jazzy noodling. No.

Boring

Couple of decent tracks.

No

An utterly inexplicable artist. Can’t sing, music is trash, lyrics purposely opaque drivel. Every second spent listening to him is a second wasted. Wish I could rate it zero.

Nearly as boring as Coldplay.

Everything about this is horrible. Possibly the stupidest name ever.

One of Lou Reed’s better efforts.

Most of the songs sound pretty similar. Gangsta rap is silly.

Solid album with a couple of classic tracks.

Ok. Always better to read about than listen to.

Surely no one would ever put this album on?

So boring.

The band’s OK, but there’s something unbearably cloying about his voice that makes them unlistenable.

Incredible how such a terrible sounding record ever got released. Couple of decent tracks.

Utterly dated and uninteresting.

One of those cults that’s not actually much good.

It’s that horrible sixties sound again.

Horrible, dated rock. I particularly dislike the drumming and bass guitar, as well as the singing and the stupid lyrics.

Dull

A story about nothing.

Losing the energy of the early releases and getting boring.

OK. Couple of decent songs.

Absolute mediocrity

Hard to imagine a more horrifying phrase than “pioneers of jazz-rock fusion”.

No interest at all.

Terrible band. Weather with you is one of the worst songs ever recorded.

Couple of OK tracks.

Gets a bit wearing.

It’s got that horrible country twang.

Solid album from Can’s best period.

Derivative and uninteresting.

Bit bland. Couple of OK songs.

Dance classic

The definition of MOR.

More restaurant music. OK for jazz.

Couple of good songs but gets a bit monotonous.

Hard to imagine anything being worse than this fraud’s studio albums, but this tuneless caterwauling manages it.

Classic

The high point of these mediocrities.

Crap vocals and guitar solos.

Not one of their best, but still a classic.

Pretty sixties sounds with no impact.

Nothing interesting here.

There’s only 1001 albums in this thing and it’s unbelievable they would waste so many entries on this worthless fraud.

Very boring. Couldn’t get through it.

A mystery only Americans can understand. Dull music, weird muffled sound, crap vocals, overblown lyrics.

Timeless classic.

Dated irrelevance.

Not bad.

Not much to this.

As awful as the name would suggest.

It might be from the seventies, but it’s still that crappy sixties sound.

Not interested in the blues, but BB King’s tone always amazes.

Amazing this strangled squawk was once considered to be good singing.

Solid indie album that stands out from the Britpop slop of the nineties.

This nu metal stuff has aged atrociously, and it was mediocre to begin with.

So bland.

So boring. Couldn’t get through it.

More sixties slop.

Some kind of nursery rhyme songs.

Your reaction here is going to depend on how tolerable you find her chalk on a blackboard singing style.

You can tell they’re running out of ideas.

It’s hard to find good jazz, and this isn’t it.

Hard to believe these guys were ever it.

I don’t think this is bad but it doesn’t connect with me at all.

I would never choose to listen to this, but it is OK.

Not sure why this retro tosh is supposed to be alternative.

Madness made a bunch of great singles, but never made a great album.

Impact is blunted by the army of inferior followers, but still a classic.
