Solid album, Cohen has a very unique voice and cadence to his songs. Jazz Police, Everybody Knows, & Tower of Song are standouts
The first of the post 80s Metallica albums, and arguably the transition to a more mainstream metal sound. The weakest of their first 5 records IMO. A few classics (Enter Sandman, Nothing Else Matters) none of the rest of the album cracks my personal Metallica top 20
One of my favorites. Been listening to it for 15+ years, and not likely to ever stop. Soma, Someday, Last Nite, all great songs among the rest of the album which are all stellar offerings.
Perhaps the Beastie's at their best. Every rhyme works, and there are definitely building blocks for the rest of their albums in this one. Looking down the Barrel of a Gun is top notch
The Beatles at their best. Norwegian Wood, Michelle, and In My Life are personal favorites.
Alright is a good song, and the only one I was familiar with prior to listening. The rest of the album kind of blended together, and I didn’t find it remarkable
Getting Primus mixed with Frank Zappa vibes. Wasn’t my favorite listen, but it’s got legs, and definitely influenced the styles of bands that followed
A struggle to get through. The instruments are good but wildly over powered by the vocals, which are disjointed and jarring throughout the album.
Wouldn’t it be Nice is iconic, and Caroline, No is incredible. Quality songs all in between, can’t go wrong with Beach Boys
Such a fun album. Good energy throughout
Easy to listen to, fairly solid album. Just not my style currently
A good album, but noticeably behind Seeds, Desperate Youth, and Return to Cookie Mountain. Dancing Choose is superb
Good listen, song stylings are perhaps dated, but a fun album
An interesting departure for Wilco. Almost a country album, but in a good way, similar to classic folk
High quality jazz
Great listen, without looking it up, I’d assume there are plenty of movies that feature tracks from this album.
Classically good funk. Good vibes and fun times rolled into one album
In the top 3 for Green Day albums, lots of good songs on this one.
Not sure what genre this falls into. Breathy electro-pop? Enjoyed the vibe, not really my tempo, but still good
On a regular rotation, probably listen to this album a few times a year. Right up on the pinnacle of rap for me
I probably can’t say anything about this album that hasn’t been said dozens of times. No lulls or dips throughout. This is probably the closest you can get to the definition of rock and roll
All over the place, ranging from wildly abstract to contemporary of the times. Good listen tho
My personal favorite Cat Steven’s album. Lots of great songs, no down moments throughout
One of the original punk bands, album hits hard all the way through
Objectively good, just not my style. The songs you know from REM are on this album.
Solid 80s pop, nothing wrong with this album. Couple great hits and a few hidden gems
Great stuff. Big energy throughout, lots of fun to listen to
Something about this album really resonates with me. Loving the rhythm and vocals. Begs to be on repeat
Album is a lot of fun.
Vocal masterpiece, many great songs
My favorite Johnny Cash album.
Not for me, didn’t enjoy the pacing or the musicality of any song. Iggy pops voice has always been grating to me
Great pop album, Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough might be Michael’s best song
Great raw version of Nirvana. Legendary couple covers included.
Not better than any Pixies album, none of the songs really stood out to me
Love this album, and always reminds me of dads joke for Christmas. Roundabout of course is great, also Long Distance Runaround
Great album, almost every song hits hard
Wasn’t my tempo. Didn’t get through the whole album, as I wasn’t in the mood for it. It sounded musically good
Very good. Enjoyable to listen too throughout.
Laura’s vocals seemed a bit ahead of her time. Initially it sounded like the songs were rushing a bit, but the album flowed well.
Pretty good stuff for the time period it was released. Definitely dated tho
I don’t know who this album is for. Nothing stood out at all to me, just felt bland
Good for the times, feels dated now, but I do appreciate how good the vocal is
I’m not sure if this is actually a popular album, but it was incredibly uninspiring
Fine country/bluegrass. Just isn’t what I’m generally wanting to listen to
Decent, but nothing really stuck out as remarkable
Spotify only has 4 of the 8 songs on the album, but it seems pretty soulful. Great vocalist
It’s good all the way through, a foundation for rock and metal to build on for all time
I don’t know why this is on this list. Club/electronica in decent form for sure, but I don’t see how this could be influential to anyone
Fantastic album, heavy metal at its finest
Not digging the vocals, the instruments are good, very Sex-Pistols type vibes
It’s 2Pac, so it’s good, but not my favorite of his stuff.
Blues at the highest level. I don’t always love live albums, but there is something very special about B.B. King in front of an audience
Solid album, I don’t quite know how to define it, but the whole album felt well performed. The vocals are melodic, and the backing beats are emotive
Has a Michael Jackson-esque feel to it. Good songs, but definitely feels 80s
Great Latin jazz, lovely feel throughout with great energy
Lexicon Devil is great, from the Tony Hawk soundtrack, the rest of the album isn’t remarkable
Good funk, some real building blocks for those that come after
Not generally a fan of country, but I did like this album
Fun jazz album. Could listen to this all day
Sounds like a lot of other soft pop from the 80s. Not getting high marks from me
Pretty good, but definitely feels dated now. Understood how this is foundational for a lot of rap that followed
Didn’t listen, not going to support or entertain Kanye
Very consistent from Cohen, not as stand out as I’m Your Man, but still quite good
Good album, not overly stand out, but would listen to again
Meh. Fine for its time period, but feels boring now
The Cure is always consistent. Hits all the melancholy notes you’d expect
Every song is a classic, the word masterpiece gets thrown around a lot. Applies here
Love this album, unique sound
Great album, solid tunes throughout and no lulls
Not a huge Offspring fan. The vocals have always been grating to me. Music is fine, but I don’t generally seek it out. Album is fine, just not top of the pops to me
Every song on this album seems like it could be a dance at a wedding. Not in a bad way, good throughout
One of the best live performing bands of all time. Great songs on the album, and plenty of energy throughout. Love the live version of Fortune Teller
A lot of rap is definitely built off of Ice Cube’s style. I don’t think any one song stood out to me, but the album is good throughout
Liked it a bit, just speaks of the early 90s. Kinda like what the chili peppers were doing around the same time, but a bit heavier
80s Metallica was a different beast. The first 4 albums are metal perfected as far as I’m concerned. Hits hard first to last
It’s fine, I’d rather listen to Simon & Garfunkel. This is more of the same
Reminded me of Deltron, had the THPS soundtrack vibes that are a throwback to the late 90s/early 00s.
Very similar ethereal feel that their first album has. Not sure if it’s any sort of an improvement over the first, or that’s just familiarity creeping in.
Mostly forgettable 80s synth pop. Some good stuff, but it doesn’t make any good current rotation
Not bad. Kind of a throwback to 80s synth with a modern noise vocal style. More of a spacey feel
Definitive 70s classic rock. Legendary songs like White Rabbit and Somebody to Love endure to this day. The rest of the album is filled with bluesy rock that was a hallmark of their time. Can’t find a real fault or dislike about any of it
Strong melodies and I like the instrumentals. Unfortunately I don’t understand French, so I’m missing out on the singing. It all sounds very good
Great jazz album, smooth and clean throughout. I haven’t researched if this was a breakthrough in jazz, but otherwise it’s just good
Initially I liked it, seemed to either be the inspiration for or be inspired by the later Beatles albums with sitars/Indian influence. Devolved into noise and it seemed that the vocals never took a break to let the instruments shine through. Ultimately forgettable
Not very remarkable to me. Found the album fairly boring
Pretty good, ambiance based indie rock. (?) Revival is a really good song
Meh. Nothing remarkable here
Everything you’d want from the Mamas and the Papas. Several good songs, and staples of their genre
The beats and instruments are very good. Unfortunately I don’t speak the language that the songs are written in, so I’m sure I’m missing a lot, but pleasant to listen to. The cover of Imagine was quite good
The sound is everything you’d expect from a late 60s folk/rock album. Mr. Soul is really good, and the rest of the album is steady, albeit a bit slow
Good fun, folky rock album. Similar to a lot of their peers, but nothing I didn’t like
Rock and roll at its finest. Neil Young never misses
I like pretty much everything about this album, the beats, vocals, and rhythm is all top notch. Killing me softly and No woman no cry are legendary for a reason Big fan of How many Mics and Fu-Gee-La
The more punk metal of the early metal bands. A lot of the rhythms have real similarity to early Metallica riffs. Didn’t do any research to find out which ones were written earlier
Classic Doors album. Great throughout
