I struggle to get on board with modern rap. There is something missing in the music itself, a bassiness that was found in 90's rap, I guess. There are a couple of good songs on here, but for me, it doesn't outweigh the filler and the songs that feel rambling and confused. I always hear about how great a lyricist Kendrick is, so I want to hear it! I don't know that I do. Maybe I'm just old.

Ok, so lyrically this is pretty brilliant and of such significance to the singer/songwriters of this era of music. Great lyrics, strong vocal arrangements. However, the music itself is dull and often uninspired, but I get what they're doing by not letting the music get in the way of what they are trying to say. There are some absolutely classic songs on here.

I will be the first to admit that I don't "get" Bowie so I might not know or understand how this album fits into his incredible career. I can only base it off the music, and I generally like it. I don't know that I would come back to it again and again, but this is a record of solid music with a nice balance of the introspective and the upbeat.

The greatest collection of thinly-veiled metaphors ever put to vinyl! This is an essential album in the world of hard rock and there aren't many records that embody denim jackets and warm beers standing next to your Camaro than this one. Let's be real...is there a greater rock groove than on the title track? With this full listen, much of it outside of the megahits doesn't stand up like it used to, but still very deserving to be on the 1,001 list.

This is a fine album of music, but for me, there was nothing particularly memorable here. No moments or songs really stuck out to me.

This album is a wild collection of great songs, complete filler, absolute disasters, and songs that are straight-up annoying. I get the cultural significance of The White Album and how it was arguably the greatest band ever truly having some space to explore a ton of different influences, genres, and styles of music. What it ends up being to me is a fractured mess of an album that sounds more like a collection of B-sides that wouldn't make it onto a regular album and then found and released decades after a band breaks up just because there are recordings and a feeling that they need to be released. This one is tough to give a number to - because it's the Beatles and The White Album you feel like you HAVE to give it a high score. As an album, it simply doesn't deserve it though. I feel bad for the amazing songs on here that are on this album instead of another one.

Had never heard of this before, so I wasn't sure what I was getting into. I was into it way more than I thought I might be. This is a cool record made by unreal musicians. I briefly considered scoring it a 5, but the third track "Moon in June" lost me a little bit, especially when vocals were introduced into it. But overall, this is some interesting listening that definitely pushes the boundaries of what we might consider as rock music.

I’ve tried a few times with this album. It’s just not for me. It’s not terrible, just not my style.

I don’t love this band, but this album is full of very good synth-rock and some songs that have become pretty timeless radio staples.

Well…it’s disco. Can’t say I’ve ever listened to an entire disco album before. It was fine.

A couple of good spots that are overshadowed by some pretty dull soft rock. I wanted to like this more than I did.

Not bad. Definitely has the feel of the late 90s, and there are some excellent songs on here. I feel like almost every song could use some editing though, like a minute or more shorter for each track would have tightened up the album as a whole. “Stars all seem to Weep” was a highlight.

The first three songs on this album are certified bangers, but the rest of the record can’t hold up to its hot start. Still a very good album, probably my favorite of Beck’s career.

My favorite Zeppelin album. I love the balance of the rock on side A and the acoustic side B. I know this isn’t the most revered of their catalogue, but damn is it good. What an unreal 4 album run to start their careers.

Quite enjoyable! I like the difference in vibes between the songs.

Had never heard of them before, but clearly so influential! Listening to this, I couldn’t believe it was from 1975.

This kind of represents a lot of the music of the 80s as a whole: it’s fine, but nothing really stands out about it and it’s instantly forgettable.

Even when it came out and before her untimely death, this album had the feel of an instant classic. A few years down the road, and it definitely is just that.

Cool mashup of cultures and styles here, but it misses the mark for me. Too many parts I wanted to skip through.

I’ve always had something against Dylan, but damn this is a good record. For the times, for the cultural importance, for the considered lyrics, and for the music that is actually pretty fun - this one scores high for me. You win this round, Bob Dylan.

I really, really enjoyed this album. My taste leans towards the more upbeat songs, but this is excellent overall.

Not my favorite of theirs, but a very solid album with a couple of excellent songs.

Sort of just ok. Not as good as Neon Bible, definitely not as good as Funeral. Just a decent rock album, I guess. I can’t see myself coming back to it, so it tops out at a 2 for me.

I never think I’ll enjoy Peter Gabriel, but then I do. A nice mix of palatable with hints of the weird on this album.

This one came up the day after Ozzy died. There is no arguing how important this album is to metal. Absolutely seminal. “War Pigs” might be the song that best defines heavy metal, in my opinion. A full album of a band at their peak, full of classics that came to define the genre, and many of the future subgenres of metal.

I don’t always listen to the music of the Madchester era, but when I do, it’s the Happy Mondays.
