It's certainly easy listening.. Not the kind of album I can dive into and focus on for it's entirety.
Certainly one of the greatest albums of all time. Every moment of every track is pure bliss.
Very slow.. Hard for me to pay attention. Good background music for a romantic date maybe.
Very interesting, far outside the norm. I find it inspirational and tranquil without being boring.
Pairs well with drawing and decorating.
This was just the ramp up to their real 5 star album. It's still great nonetheless, vocal harmonies are unmatched.
This music pairs great with reorganizing and decorating your house.
Bonjour, it's like deja vu, my chauffeur said it's like belle epoque with Grey poupon in baton rouge. Pairs well with chicken cordon bleu and a baguette.
Merci
Never judge a book by its cover... This group sounds nothing like the name would suggest. Very enjoyable.
Pairs well with blowing glass or ketamine.
Very ambient, very chill.
Pairs well with woodworking or writing love letters.
Very smooth for classical punk.
Pairs well with vacuuming rugs or hosing off the driveway.
This album gets in there and shakes up your soul. It's got a texture you can't really get from any other group. Thoroughly magical.
Pairs best with woodworking or lsd (I wouldn't recommend them both at the same time though).
It's a banger for sure. Fun listening. Jubilant with some crispy highs on this rollercoaster.
I find this album best paired with morning commutes (not evening) and chopping vegetables.
Pretty fun. Best paired with dinner guests who you're trying to impress.
Groovy and with gusto. Very enjoyable listen.
Pairs well with doing dishes or getting ready for date night.
This album is epic in a way one could only imagine if you're only familiar with the hits, like I was. Not a moment goes by that I wasn't fully engulfed in the music.
Pairs excellent with working on your car or arts and crafts.
Dated and predictable. I might have a different opinion if I was 80.
Pairs well with eating cabbage and visiting grandma.
Very fun and evergetic. Pairs well with crocheting or doing taxes.
Pretty heavy, pretty heavy. Good stuff.
Pairs well with riding Harleys and picking kids up from school
It's the eagles, it's kinda slow and sad. Also kinda monotonous.
Pairs well with day drinking or driving an old car where it's the tape permanently stuck in the deck.
If you've never heard it, it brings a vibe not easily found. The whole album is good, with some serious gems within.
Pairs well with washing your car or rolling blunts.
Mellow and enjoyable, I enjoy the vocals and soft beats.
Pairs well with cooking or driving in the hot sun.
Boooooorrrrrrriiiiiiinnnnnngggggg
Fantastic and triumphant album all the way through.. Except for the intro to in the light is about a minute and a half too long. Would have been 5 stars otherwise.
Pairs best with singing in the shower or air guitar.
Nick Drake was an amazing musician with a magical voice. Top tier.
Pairs well with picnics in the forest on cool, bright days.
Some really fantastic jams here.. It's got some flavors of some other more popular bands.
Pairs well with model airplane building.
Very bland.. Like a vegan meal.
The entire thing sounds like what my talentless friends and I would make if we were tripping on acid while trapped in a music store.
I suppose it is one of the albums of all time, but to me it's just thoroughly unenjoyable.
Uplifting and motivating.
Pairs well with cooking with your wife or street skateboarding.
It has its moments. Harsh and prickly, but mostly not in a good way.
Pairs well with pretending to be cool.
Amazing all around. Great history.
Pairs well with bike rides on hot days and picnics.
Vulgar and offensive. Very clever and smooth rhymes.
Pairs well with punching drywall or driving to quit your job.
Seriously groovin'. So entertaining. Highly familiar even though I've never heard the album before this.
This album does a real good job of getting its energy straight to your limbic system.
Makes me think of big hair. Induces compulsive air guitar with sick moves.
Pairs well with mowing the lawn.
Not quite as entertaining as the start would have me believe. Sailors hornpipe got me shufflin' a bit.
Pairs well with decorating a Christmas tree.
Very diverse. 40 tracks, some better than others. The genres seems to shift around the deeper you get. Pretty enjoyable though.
Pairs well with packing for vacation.
Nostalgic, definitely brings me back to a time when I really didn't understand music.
It's fun and outrageous, but not really all that in my opinion.
This album does what I wish more country could.
Easy to listen and follow. Flawless use of simplicity and an amazing voice.
Makes the music in my head feel sane. I could close my eyes and imagine the Muppets playing this music.
Cheerful and gratifying.
I found the album to be pretty mid.. Very cliche and predictable throughout, but not a terrible listen.
Due to the high expectations I've placed on the list, I'm rating it a 2.
She really has an excellent voice. The whole album has the same vibe though.
Fatboy slim really has a penchant for fabricating these punchy tunes that just get me pumped.
Everything just seems like such a breakthrough for the time it was created.
This was quite a struggle to get through, I really tried to enjoy it.
The vocals don't always seem to match up to the rest. Also, the vocals and lyrics are just not pleasant, which is a shame because she's got a great voice.
May be the birth of cool.. But cool hadn't quite peaked yet.
Miles has an expansive discography, and within it are more than one five star albums. For me, this doesn't quite boop that button.
An excellent album, really a work of art.
As soon as the vocals hit in the first song I started laughter! Soon after, I was imagining the singer as being a dog, which also made me laugh.
It's terrible, lyrics are completely indecipherable.
However, it was more enjoyable than some other music I've come across on this list. The energy of nihilism and anger are here in full force. And I could imagine their shows being a blast.
This album certainly takes you on a journey. Although, that journey is partially through some dog shit and the like.
It's not all bad though, just some of it.
Typical and predictable. She has a great voice though.
Pairs well with day drinking and loneliness.
I'm not sure how this ended up on the list, because it doesn't really seem to be music for much of the 55 tediously protracted minutes.
This is actually the first album on the list that I refused to finish because it's just such horrible noise.
This is the kind of thing preteen edge lords listen to in order to make people like them even less... But even they don't enjoy it.
Very uplifting, much different from the hip hop of the same era. It's rhythmic and funky, varied. Even though it probably won't come up very often in my daily listening, I'm giving it 5 stars because it really is a masterpiece.
Pairs well with organizing your home.
Violent and gangsta.
Pairs well with getting a haircut.
Interesting.. Some real interesting bangers on this album. Set my algorithm in an interesting direction.
This one is an easy five and my personal favorite from the Beatles.
Catchy and in no way lacking depth. By the time the second namesake of the album comes on there's a slight sadness like you know the band is about to leave the stage.
Luckily, unlike a concert, you can just replay the album again.
Pretty boring and insipid. Very difficult to keep my attention on the music.
Dated, but BB most certainly was the king of blues. His buttery riffs will live on forever.
Some fun stuff.. It's all over the place.
Heavy, very heavy. But no so absurdly metal that it's unenjoyable.
Only ever heard the name, so this was my first experience with Joni and this album exceeded my expectations. I'll probably listen again soon.
Listening to this album really elevated my fondness for Talking Heads. It's really an enjoyable album.
Pairs well with technically challenging work or hobbies.
May not be the cool band to listen to. But no doubt these fellas brought a pretty fine album here.
Didn't age as well as some other hip hop from this era.
I had to listen twice, it's a little boring. It can roll on in the background of just about anything though.
Although it's probably not an album I'll likely reach for again, it's everything a good album should be. Interesting, adventurous, and takes you to the places the artist intended.
I look forward to listening again when I start the list over.
I don't feel like I could trust someone who chooses to play this album.
I know people don't like this kind of music.. But I like this kind of music.
My only gripe is that it's so short.
Theatrical.. But not in a good way.
Wonderwall is so overplayed, I rolled my eyes when this album came up. But, it was really good.
Some of it is good. But 48 mins is far too much of this.
It's not hard to listen to, but I feel kinda greasy after listening to it.
I got laughed at by a coworker for not knowing how to pronounce the name of this artist... "Jay-ru the damager" is the colloquial version.
Pretty good for a Bob album.
Orbital has some great music, it's just not contained on this album.
Elevator music from the future.
This shit puts some pep in your step. Amazing energy and a fun mystery trying to figure out the words!
It's not bad, not hard to listen to. Not really noteworthy in my opinion.
This is the kind of music for people who want others to think they like music, but really they don't.
Although it's not my favorite Led Zeppelin album, the dudes still created magic through most of these 43 minutes.
I never really listened to Dolly, I'm glad this was on the list because it was really good and showcased her amazing talent. She's not just an amazing person, but a great musician as well.
Quite a let down here. This just doesn't have the excitement I would expect from similarly labeled music from this time period.
Well, I judged this album by its name and turns out I wasn't wrong. Salsa isn't really my jam unless the food type. But dude does have a great voice.
I went into this one with zero knowledge of these dudes, I listened to the whole thing without realizing iggy pop is part of the mix. Pretty great and long, never know what the next song holds.
I really cranked up the volume and tried to immerse myself completely to try and separate my personal bias.. This is just terrible, he uses the worst of every genre, embarrassing use of vocal modulator, weak rhymes and turbulent, almost non-existent flow.
Not my favorite Nick Drake album, but he was so good so this still gets a 4.
I'm not sure this will ever go out of style.
Soundgarden and this album specifically give grunge a smoothness thanks to the warm guitar and Chris Cornell's legendary voice.
Maybe it's because it was the first of many albums I stole from my dad in what would be a decades long war he started by stealing my Bad Religion CD, but this album has a special place in my heart.
Although I haven't listed to it in a few years and my taste in music has considerably drifted, it's still earns what only my favorite albums do, five stars.
P.s. Deluxe edition is 5 stars as well.
That was kinda fun.. Not sure it belongs on the list. But I enjoyed it.
Well, the name is fitting as it sounds like heaps of junkyard trash falling into a dumpster.
I thought her voice was alright before I listened to this album.
Typical black Sabbath with a basket full of bangers.
All classics, all Christmas.
Beck is extremely talented and there's a few bangers on this album.. But the album as a whole, I found it ok, while my wife found it abhorrent.
Chill... Almost too chill
This was a very difficult album to get through,but I begrudgingly completed it. It's thoroughly unenjoyable and the vocals are nothing short of a tragedy.
Might not be considered "cool" but this album is pretty fun.
I don't really see what the hype is around this band.. Most of their stuff isn't this bad though.
Bordering on what one could call music.
Taking a glance at the glaring one star review where the user wrote a book longer than the album about how terrible it is. All I can say is, "whatever dude, I like Billy's voice and this album is a banger."
She's got a great voice.. But it was very hard to pay attention to the music without falling into a coma.
The album contains some certifiable bangers for sure. However, the album as a whole gets a little stale and boring.
Background music for people organizing their cast iron pan collection.
This was awesome, I'd never listened before. A live album like this really put you there.
I may be biased as breakbeats are involved in many beautiful memories for me. This album is extra buttery for easy consumption in daily life. It may not be the spectacular, action-packed trip some are looking for, but I don't think that's the point.
Pleasant and breezy, it pairs amazingly with technical and challenging tasks.
I love Willie, but this album is boring as hell.
I would have loved this back when I was on heroin.
Super 80s.. No doubt about it.
Psychedelic and whimsical... It's fun, but not spectacular.
Very unique, not what I was expecting.
Don't like the man.. But the album is undeniable. Had me groovin and bussing and hehe'in at work.
Filthy.. Makes me want to kick a trash can.
The two songs I knew before listening gave me high hopes for this album. It ain't bad.
I found this quite soothing. I just so happened to listen to this one in the car where the bass really brought this music to life. It doesn't bang so hard it wants to break the windows, but it sends buttery smooth rumbles throughout.
It's not enough of an adventure for 5 stars, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I listen to this before going out for my favorite pastime of attention seeking.
I haven't listened to this album in a very long time. In hindsight, it is a little corny.
This album spoke to a lot of young people though, in many ways. It helped open my ears to genres outside the world of rock.
Whether you want to sing, scream, rap, air guitar, air turntable, etc, this album is there for you.
Very long.. Some of it is great.
Five star instrumentals with 3 star vocals.
Five stars for the music, five stars for what it stands for.
The flow and voice were above par for the period. The content of the lyrics isn't very tasteful.
Is this children's music?
Brings me images of disco balls and roller skates.. Which is groovy.
Pretentious, offensively boring.
I'm not sure I've met someone in person who's listened to this whole album and not liked it.
Tons of hate, nonsensical vocal sounds, offensive lyrics, extended range guitars, fuckin' bagpipes... unfathomable cheesiness.
Fred dust feature and an absurd bonus track lock this in as one of the most ridiculous but hype albums of the era. Unlike much other metal, you can understand the lyrics that are actually words. That's a pro or a con based on who you ask.
Half the haters secretly enjoy this shit.
As with much of Metallica music, it's hard not to recognize this as a masterpiece.
I'm almost finished with it at this exact moment and I'm anxiously waiting for it to be over so I can put something else on.
Boring, generic and dreary if I had to define it.
