t's amazing how an album that's so offbeat can be so dull to listen to, it's like the band decided to be weird for the sake of being weird and totally forgot to make actually interesting music. Each song just seems to drone on and on, and I wound up only being able to get about halfway through it before shutting it off, and even then I was forcing myself through each song. Absolutely terrible.

This was an easy ome, it's straight up one of the best prog albums of all time.

I've always disliked U2, and despite going into this album with an open mind, I found it only made me dislike them even more. The whole album's just so bland and the songs so same-y and basic that I found myself completely checking out before I even made it halfway through the album, I genuinely felt like I was listening to the same song over and over again. Like, the choruses of Where the Streets Have No Name and With Or Without You sounded almost identical to me. I simply couldn't finish it.

Not really my cup of tea. It has that post-Beatles late 60s/early 70s melodramatic soft-psychedlic sound I've never been too big on, and John Cale's voice ain't all there for me. On the positive side, Child's Christmas in Wales, Macbeth, and Paris 1919 actually did hook me in a little bit.

I tried to give this a genuine chance, I've heard many of the songs off this album before since it's undeniably a classic in the sense of how successful and influental it is, but I've long hated Bruce Springsteen and the second his weird, warbly voice kicked in, I instantly had to shut it off. That husky vibrato he does is like nails on a chalkboard to me.

I've never really listened to much of The Who outside of their hits and was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed this album. The songs are all super catchy, and I dig the way the sound kind of bounces back and forth between rock and R&B. I was also interested to learn the album came out in '65 only because the title track sounds so ahead of its time, like I've heard it a thousand times and sort of assumed it came out sometime in the 70s when punk was starting to really become a thing, between the lyrics and the fast, punchy instrumentation, it sounds like a full on punk song.

This was a fun album, though honestly probably not something I'd go out of my way to listen to again. I dig folk punk but this one just didn't totally grab me in that way.

Just an insanely boring album, I couldn't even finish it.

Not bad, but not my cup of tea, I thought it was a little samey and repetitive. Jeepster was a bop though!

I've never been a huge Elton John fan but was surprised I actually kind of enjoyed this one. While I probably wouldn't go out of my way to listen to it again, it had some good enjoyable moments, with Funeral For A Friend being the definite highlight, I actually really dug that one.

I wanted to like this one because the atmosphere and production kind of intruiged me, but I found it to be relentlessly boring. Every single song is a basic endlessly repeating drum beat and bassline with bland, repetitive vocals and instrumentation dropped on top of it. I just couldn't do it.

I'm a huge fan of rap but I somehow have never gotten around to giving this album a go for whatever reason, which is a shame because I can totally see why it's such a beloved and influental album, it's just nothing but bangers front to back. I swear this is gonna be my listening obsession for the next week.

This is a super solid piece of folk rock, I'm really digging it. I think it's cool how it kind of plays around with genres a bit, like for the most part it's straight up folk rock, but then you have songs like the the accordion heavy Si du tois partir, the blues-y Autopsy, the rockin' slide guitar driven Cajun Woman, and the single along sea shanty style of Percy's Song. It gives the album quite a bit of variety and makes it overall really fun to listen to.

I've always been kind of indifferent to The Beach Boys, like I don't mind them but their music has always sounded more like something you'd throw on in the background at a party than something I'd actively sit down and jam out to, and this album didn't really change that opinion too much.

This album pretty much falls into my "Not bad but not my cup of tea" category. I really enjoy jazz, but this was just a bit too noodly for my tastes.

I wasn't too big on some of the vocals on this album but for the most part I enjoyed it, there was some really good funky instrumentation up in here.

This is one of those albums where I'm super familiar with the hit single (Sledgehammer) but haven't heard the rest of it, and yeah, it's a pretty solid bit of 80's pop rock. The slower ballad tracks are a little sappy for my taste, but tracks like That Voice Again, Big Time, and previously mentioned Sledgehammer are tons of fun.

It's weird, I can't say I was actively engaged in listening to this album, but I had it on my way to work on a rainy day and there was something about it that made for a really nice atmosphere.

This was a listenable but kind of forgettable bit of 60s pop rock. Honestly, the whole time I was listening I couldn'r help but feel like the band was trying to cash in on Beatlesmania, though I say this as someone who isn't super familiar with the band outside of their hits like You Really Got Me, Lola, or All of the Day and All of the Night.

Not one of my favorite Beatles albums, there's some good tunes on here bit most of it kind of goes in on ear and out the other.

Good god, what an awful album. I swear to god every track was cobbled together with basic Garageband loops, and whenever he does throw in something original, I found myself wondering if he was actually tone deaf. Added to that, his rapping just has nothing interesting or charasmatic about it, and on some tracks it sounds like he was half asleep while recording vocals. It's boring as hell at best and borderline unlistenable at worst, i absolutely hated it.

Fun and funky with a traditional African flair, this was a pretty entertaining listen!

Pretty good bit of jazzy rock.

I've never delved too deep into Steely Dan but this album was an absolute delight from front to back, it's super funky and catchy and has me wanting to go back for more.

This was an easy ome, it's straight up one of the best prog albums of all time.

Not bad but not really my cup of tea.

Instrumentally it's great, but Billy Corgan's voice has always been really grating to me.

Straight up one of the best country albums of all time. Marty Robbins voice is crazy pleasant to listen to, and every song on it will just stick in your head totally rent free for the rest of time in a way that you'll find yourself belting along to them in the car every time you relisten to it.

It had some really catchy moments and a cool, unique vibe, but I ultimately found myself zoning out for large chunks of it. Tightrope was a definite highlight, though.

The Who's great but I'm super picky when it comes to live albums, and this one was super rough for me. I thought Roger Daltrey sounded painfully flat and off key and it made it impossible for me to get past the first two or three songs.

I didn't mind it but it made zero impression on me, it's a good background album more than anything else.

It was fun going back to this album, I was a huge fan of it back in high school, and Metallica was one of the first metal bands I ever got into and were what helped turn me into the massive metalhead I am today. While I'm not quite as into it as I was back in the day - these days I prefer Metallica's early stuff to the much more radio friendly Black Album - it's still a really fun album with some absolutely iconic riffs.

Just an all around very solid country album, Nanci's got a great voice and there's some total earworms on here. I really enjoyed it.

Not a huge fan of Johnny Cash or live albums but this was fine.

I was a little iffy on this album at first because of the more old school style of hip-hop/rap it goes for - it feels a little "My name is De La Soul and I'm here to say, I gonna rap and rhyme in a major way" at times - but it started to grow on my a fair bit the further I got into it. There's some fun catchy stuff on here, and it's got me interested in giving it a second chance.

This album was shockingly awful, like there's so many talented names on this thing but then Ute Lemper's singing just sounds like she's badly improvising the lyrics, and the way she belts them out makes me wonder if she's tone deaf and has no sense of rhythm.

This was one of those "I listened to the first 3 songs and had to nope out" albums I've been coming across from time to time doing the 1001 Albums thing, the instruments just sounded like a wall of noise to me (this is coming from a fan of grindcore too) and the vocals were basically unlistenable.

Meh. It's listenable, but out of all the country albums out there, it's certainly one of them. None of the songs really grabbed me or made an impression on me, and Gram's voice was a tiny bit grating to me at times for some reason.

Nice bit of funky jazz, but I found myself zoning out for most of it, and I found the whole album sounded pretty much the same to me, like I was three songs into it before realizing the first song had ended a while before. Not bad, just not really my jam.

I was pleasantly suprised how much I enjoyed this, it's super chill and atmospheric and has a sort of slightly gloomy feel to it that almost made me feel like I was listening to a goth/dark wave album at times. I definitely can see myself coming back to it, it'd be a perfect soundtrack for a nighttime drive.

I dig he fun 80s pop instrumentation but I've just never been a fan of Prince's vocals. I will say even though I didn't 100% vibe with this album, I can see myself giving it another go someday.

I dug the instrumentals but the vocals weren't really my cup of tea.

System of a Down's such a fun band.

This album actually bummed me out because it'd be an easy 4/5 if it wasn't for the fact the singer's voice is absolutely god awful, he sounds like if Mandark from Dexter's Laboratory joined a band.

Another masterpiece from Rush, these guys really are the GOATs.

Meh. Never been much of a Queen fan and this didn't do anything to change that.

Makes for some chill out and vibe background music.

I've always disliked U2, and despite going into this album with an open mind, I found it only made me dislike them even more. The whole album's just so bland and the songs so same-y and basic that I found myself completely checking out before I even made it halfway through the album, I genuinely felt like I was listening to the same song over and over again. Like, the choruses of Where the Streets Have No Name and With Or Without You sounded almost identical to me. I simply couldn't finish it.

This album was almost fascinatingly bad, it really does sound like rejected songs that Lily von Schtupp was supposed to sing in Blazing Saddles, as another 1001 Albums Generator user pointed out. Maybe I just don't get it, but all I know is I listened to the first 10 minutes with what must've been a hell of a "What in god's name am I listening to?" look on my face before having to change it over to something else.

Could've been a pretty good album but the vocals just kinda break it for me.
