Absolutely loved the album, the two MCs have amazing chemistry and are incredibly fun to listen to. Best part is it's all tied together by the great DJ.

It was an okay album with some major ups and downs. Wouldn't It Be Nice and I Just Wasn't Made For These Times were both 10/10 amazing songs, the rest of the album was anywhere from pretty good to rather boring.

Just some good, groovy '90s jazz rap. Not a whole lot to say other than the middle of it did lose some steam, but it picked it all back up in the end. I loved Luck of Lucien and Ham 'N' Eggs. The 4 guys are all awesome lyricists. Also shoutout to this album for making a song berating wife-beaters <3

Went in expecting some flavor of budget Radiohead given the discourse I've heard/seen regarding the album, definitely more than that. The lead vocalist has a really calming voice and it was a great wind-down album given how wild of a day I had when I listened to this. I could easily see this becoming a part of my regular rotation when I'm in the mood for some moody alt-rock :>

Absolutely love her singing voice, I mean, who doesn't? My one issue with the album as a whole is it lacks that edge that most soul music does. It was a little shaped to fit a global palette and it certainly worked. Otherwise amazing album. Also she covers The Cure, that alone adds a star.

Of all the Bowie albums, The Next Day? My first experience with this album was laughing at the fact that the album cover is literally "Heroes" with a big white square on it. Admittedly, that's the absolute worst part of the album. Past that it's a totally fine and serviceable record, but it's just that and not much past it. Not quite "You should listen to this before you die."

This just shouldn't be on here. The Wikipedia blurb this site gives me literally says the album flopped on the charts. He's just trying and failing to sound like Bob Dylan.

There are two albums my high school band director would always talk about, this one and Kind of Blue by Miles Davis, now I can see why. Definitely one of the better jazz albums I've ever listened to. This feels like a great album to relax to at night. Not to mention all the jazz classics and standards on this album like Corcovado or The Girl From Ipanema.

I love how unique this record is. The sampling and background vocals are my favorite part of the whole album, not to mention it's violently groovy. Also some people in the reviews of this album suck at masking their racism. To those people, you're literally the reason this album was made. Do better.

Just not for me, "Draining" is the first word that comes to mind. Even the better songs on the album like O'Malley's Bar just drag on and on for far too long. Not 1/5 because I listen to artists who were primarily influenced by this guy.

What a grand album, loved every song. The lead vocalist has an amazing voice and knows how to use it. Really glad that this was my introduction to U2.

This is definitely the punk album of all time, nothing beats it. I already listened to this one way before I got it on this list and loved it from the start.

Amazing storytelling paired with subpar vocals and instrumentals, solidly 50/50 to me.

I'm really glad I don't care about Game of Thrones or take public transport, thank you reviewers. Anyways the album's pretty good, I don't really understand why it's on the list though.

These guys are obnoxiously high. That drives the whole album, how drugged out they are. Sometimes it leads to greatness, other times it leads to "oh..." A totally fine album, just maybe a little too druggy for me.

Really cool listen. For how varied the album is, it feels incredibly bloated. Still an awesome listen and definitely up there when it comes to Led Zeppelin albums.

A lot of this album is fairly uninteresting to me, and then all of a sudden it hits The Sound of Someone... and I understand it. A deeply relaxing listen if nothing else, but one I'm unlikely to come back to.

I didn't expect a Dolly Parton album of all things to be this good. Filled with amazing stories and a really bittersweet tone throughout the whole thing that I loved from the start.

This is the most horribly chaotic and genuinely entertaining album I've listened to in a really long time. It's awful, but in the best way possible. It's fun, it's goofy, and by every religious being on earth is it a delight to sit through in one go. It takes as much stamina to listen through this album as it probably did to create it, but it's insanely worth it.

The first 4 minutes really were the best part of the album. The other 44 ranged from pretty good to mentally taxing. Ironic saying that since yesterday's was Trout Mask Replica, but I just didn't find this one as fun.

I feel like I should like the Beach Boys more than I actually do. I really liked this album but something just felt really off about it that I can't put a finger to.

Pretty interesting album, I loved the goofier cuts of the album and the serious ones met with it pretty well.

We don't tolerate cheaters in this household.

Really nice and relaxing listen, just started going in one ear and out the other towards the end.

I mean, come on, it's Public Enemy. they made two of the most powerful and influential rap albums of the 80s and this is one of them. Every song is great and they really did want to dig in their point in the most "we don't really care if you think the title '911 Is a Joke' is offensive" kind of way possible, deserving of all 5 stars.

This guy is Ronnie Radke for 90s goth kids. Past that it's a pretty okay album but I don't understand why it's on this list.

This site never misses with its jazz picks, I swear. It's a major compliment to a jazz artist/band to make a face like you just smelled moldy vegetables from their playing, and this whole album made me look like my tongue was about to go flying out of my head. Beyond amazing.

Those two opening songs made me think I was getting the best album I ever heard, the other 9 were just really good.

My parents always disliked Cat Stevens. I never really understood it. This album was 70s perfection and I loved everything about it.

I can hear these guys' influence in basically all of my favorite bands. Past that, it's a pretty good record that acted more like a history lesson for me. Not hugely likely to come back to it but it was pretty cool.

I don't know why I never bothered to listen to The Flaming Lips until now, this might just be my favorite album of the list so far. It's everything positive about psychedelic pop as a genre in one album. If I could give this 6 stars I absolutely would.

Nice and accessible. I'd give this to someone saying they want to get into metal and don't know where to start.

Bowie Album #2 out of 9 Totally fine, I really liked a few songs and the rest were fairly forgettable. Oh! You Pretty Things and Song for Bob Dylan were really good.

David Bowie album #3 out of 9, and definitely his best work to me. His regular songs on this are amazing, his ambient ones are interesting and really textured, just an all around amazing work of art.

The best part of this album is the two covers. Past those, it's pretty decent, just missing something I can't quite put my finger on.

How on earth did he manage to make Kate Bush sound boring? That's just plain impressive.

I, probably like a lot of y'all here, knew this woman from that time she ripped up the Pope's photo during her performance on SNL. Really glad to know her music carries that same energy. By the way, for anyone that needed to know, her name is pronounced like "shin-AID." spared you a Google search.

Might just be the most middle-of-the-road album I've listened to from this list so far. It's okay house music and I wouldn't be mad if I went to a gay bar or something and heard this album.

All around great album, my only thing about it is how similar some of the end tracks get. Past that it's worth anyone's time and then some.

Holy hell this woman can sing, had me standing up and everything. Scared me with the first note she sang. Might just damn-well be the most talented blues singer I've ever heard, and this might just damn-well be a 5 star album.

My dad always talked really highly about Bob Dylan. I can definitely see why. I'm a big fan of those "a man and his guitar" kind of albums, especially artists like Nick Drake, and this one ticked all the boxes. It's nothing but a good time for 50 minutes. Not to mention how adorable this man is with the way he sings.

This is 4 guys jerking themselves off onstage for 31 minutes and that description just about describes my favorite and least favorite parts of the album.

I got an ad, and thinking that the song I was hearing was a part of the album, I looked down and immediately got kind of upset that it just an ad. Semi-Jokes aside, the atmosphere was neat. I really liked that ambient track towards the end. Past that I don't see myself coming back to this one.

It's really fascinating that that's what pop music sounds on the other side of the ocean. I loved the guy's voice and the instrumentation. Some songs had some really kickass strings and others had some kickass synths. The one major problem that brings it down for me is how bloated it is. This album could've been 30 minutes long and be near perfect. Instead it's 78 and drags towards the end. Don't be me, listen to this in two sittings.

I feel like I've heard all I need to with Radiohead from their other two big records, OK Computer and Kid A, along with some of their more typical alt-rock stuff. As an album, it's good, albeit incredibly Radiohead.

I feel like Led Zeppelin is always a good time, this one is no exception. Some really heavy hitters on this one too. Something about That's the Way just got to me.

I genuinely thought I was listening to this for an hour, only to look down and see I was on track 3. It's a whole album of a guy making random sounds with the same 4/4 kick-hat-snare-hat pattern for the whole album.

Addressing the elephant in the room, the album cover alone stops this from being 5 stars for me. 3/4 of the people on the cover don't look human and it's just uncomfortable to stare at for 39 minutes. Anyways, the actual album is great. Lots of Freddie Mercury's trademarked theatrical singing, and even some good vocal moments from the guitarist. The highs on this album were incredibly high, but much like all Queen albums to my knowledge, this one has some extreme standouts. On this one it's Brighton Rock, Flick of the Wrist, and In the Lap of the Gods... Revisited (imo). The rest of the album was good, but nowhere near those 3 songs.

For the fact that I generally don't like psych rock, this was a really good album. It was really fun the whole way through and I like the more funky tracks like Mr. Skin.

"The only pieces of equipment Shadow used to produce the album were the AKAI MPC60 12-bit sampling drum machine, a pair of turntables and a borrowed-by-visiting Pro Tools setup from an early adopter of the technology, Dan 'The Automator' Nakamura." -Wikipedia I don't know what's crazier, that sentence or the fact that it sounds amazing.

I simultaneously love and hate saying Gay Messiah was the peak of this album. I have nothing more to say.

I guess you could say there Isn't Anything of note on this album.

Now THIS is some soul music I can get behind. I wish I could tell all the pretentious music nerds that Songs in the Key of Life and Innervisions aren't his only albums. What a gift to the world.

This was a lot more jaunty and entertaining than what I was expecting from an album cover like that. They make themselves look like The Beatles but slightly worse and kind of end up going in a different direction while still clearly being Beatles inspired. Regardless, it's just good fun.

This album doesn't make much sense to me. Everything about it should, in theory, be great. It's relaxing, the band knows what they're doing, and the vocalist does really well on his part. It's an incredibly well-done album that just doesn't have much in the way of real interest. The parts where the vocalist goes super high and strained with his voice sometimes work and sometimes don't, the suddenly more electronic instrumentation on The Petrified Florist was interesting for the fact that it's finally something different, but even then it feels like too little too late. Maybe it's the lack of risk-taking on this album, maybe it's how clean everything sounds, or maybe some third thing that I can't make out, but this album as a whole was just okay, but that seems to be exactly what it's going for.

The result of 4 guys finding out what ecstasy is and going "now what if we made music on this shit?" I'll tell you what, this music sure as hell sounds like 4 guys high out of their minds making drug music. The whole album is insanely psychedelic and weirdly groovy for how hard it is to get a hold of at some points. Regardless, I love psychedelic pop and this album is no exception. I have no clue how I haven't heard of these guys and only just recently found out about The Stone Roses, but Madchester is definitely a genre for me to look into moving forward. Nothing but a good time.
