At one point in my life, I loved this album. Now, listening to it just reminds me that Kanye West is a nazi sympathizer.

I like it. Dark gothic, reminds me somewhat of depeche mode, but some songs can drag a bit

Femi Kuti

Rhythm Nation 1814

Janet Jackson

3/5

Its not a bad album at all, its probably quite good. It was just so long that it drained we hard. Not good music to listen to while working. Maybe my opinion will change after I have listened to it in a different settin

Blunderbuss

The Byrds

3/5

Some alright songs, but gets a bit dull

We're Only In It For The Money

The Mothers Of Invention

4/5

The White Album

Beatles

4/5

Quite a lot of filler on here, but also some absolute bangers and classics, most of the music holds up well. Although songs like revolution 9 are... unnecessary.

Beach Samba

Astrud Gilberto

4/5

First off, I want to praise the instrumentals. I loved them on every song. Jazzy, orchestral and beautifully arranged. If this was a full instrumental album I would give it a 5. However, Astrud's singing is many times good, but after listening to it for 30 minutes. It becomes a bit monotonous. There are some songs here that I would definitely prefer without singing.

Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea

PJ Harvey

Yeah, it's pretty nice. Doesn't blow me away or anything. But quite nice

Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo

Devo

3/5

Quirky and kind of fun. The instrumentals are generally interesting. Although the singing can be sometimes grating. Pretty pleasant overall

Under Construction

Missy Elliott

3/5

Yeah, this is very much a product of its time. Some of the production is not timeless. But I still enjoyed it quite a bit but will probably not return to it.

Stephen Stills

3/5

I read some of the reviews before listening, and I kinda expected to dislike this album. But it was quite nice. I particularly like the instruments on this. Nothing really blew me away or anything. But enjoyable nevertheless

3/5

So, across this album. The instrumentals are quite nice. But the slow singing kills me. Which makes the songs, hey joe. Captain soul and 2-4-2 fox-trot stand out to me. The best of the three byrds albums this list has put me through
