This albums feels so repetitive and uninteresting, being boring in every and each song. Electronic music can be much more creative than what this album is, being an endless and tasteless atmospheric-based collection of songs.
First of all, it's not my cup of tea, but I understand the artistic involvement in the album. Most of the album is based on hip-hop and trip-hop percussions over the samples, which takes me out a lot. It feels at times very noisy and uninteresting. "Stem / Long Stem / Transmission 2" was the first song to really catch me, which I enjoyed more. I wouldn't give this album more than a 4, so that is why I give this one two stars.
It's a good album, but not great. There are really nice instrumentations, but some songs feel bland. There is a big lyrical importance, which is nothing bad, but sometimes it seems like the lyrics carry all the interest of some of the songs. However, it has been a pleasant listening over all.
Some songs are good, others not. It is a decent album, but not anything I would highlight.
This album is a great example of how to play with different sounds and genres and still have cohesiveness and a good sound, without being pretentious. It is such a pleasant listening and feels fresh even decades later of its release.
This album feels boring at many times and sounds the same as many other 80's pop albums. Sadly, I do not have much to say about it.
This album is such a nice eclectic album, with a lot of different sounds, which is something that, even if I appreciate it a lot, at some point has taken me back. Some songs are great, but others feel bland, repetitive. Luckily, there are more good songs than bad ones.
This one is a good album, enjoyable, but just that. It's nothing really special, but something nice to listen to.
I don't really know what to think about this album. On the one hand, I liked some parts of it, but others felt uninteresting for me. It's not a bad album, but it lacks of something to really catch me.
This album is great, psychedelic and very bluesy. It's a very enjoyable listening, which feels short once the album has ended. However, it's not as fantastic as it is claimed to be. It's great, but not excellent. Sure it can get much better. But it's great to discover albums like this one, which I should have known about much time before.
What a fantastic album by one of the greatest! This album feels like a fresh "morning breeze" that is such a pleasant listening. I have to admit I had never listened to this album before, even though I knew of it, so it has been a great experience to finally listen to it. I was so surprised of how much bass sounds in this album.
It's a great album, with such a nice listening. It is short, but has many good tracks on it. As a debut album, it's a really strong proposal.
This album feels like a collection of unfinished songs under the tag of "experimental". I only enjoyed one song, the rest are all a mixture between jazz, indie rock and electronic music that does not sound good at all. If experimental means for Radiohead to enlarge the songs until boredom, it's exactly what the album is, an uninteresting, bland and uninspired intention of making something that ends up sounding rough and repetitive. A very good example of this is Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors.
This album is full of theatricality, which makes of it something great and a very diverse album. It is such an enjoyable album that catches you from start to begging. I have to admit it has impressed me.
It's a good album, nothing impressive with the exception of some tracks. I wouldn't say it's as good as many people say it is, but it's definitely an enjoyable and, many times, interesting album.
The first thing about this album is that it's... AWESOME! Of course, they are the Rolling Stones, but this Exile On Main Street is a great example of how good they can be, in every song. Even being over more than an hour long, this album feels short, being a timeless masterpiece.
It's a very warm and melodic album, which is sometimes nice, but it's nothing really special. It's just a nice collection of songs, but there is nothing in the album that really stands out.
Magnificent as Queen can be, this album is a must, so diverse and grandiose, in a very good sense, in its best sense.
It's such an impressively great album. It has a very interesting combination of sounds, even though the album has a main blues rock sound. Faithfull's voice matches so good the songs, giving them a very original touch.
After the very sad news yesterday of the death of Ozzy, there was no other possible album to listen to today than this first Black Sabbath album, a testament and begging not only of a band but of a whole musical genre. The gothic atmospheres, fantastic solos, and the recognizable voice of Ozzy, which matches perfectly the sound of the album, make of this first heavy metal album an all time masterpiece that shows the greatness of a band like Black Sabbath. And, wherever Ozzy is, long life the Prince of Darkness, because a legacy like his never dies.
This album is a great and versatile pop record, crowned by Christina's powerful voice, which is always such a pleasure to listen to. It has a lot of textures and different genres, all combined with great taste in a very cohesive record.
I have tried this album, I have tried Coldplay –and this one is not the first album I have listened to of them–, but they are just not for me. This album is bland and repetitive. Almost the entire album feels like a whole song on repeat, on and on (and on). Maybe it is because of how simple the structure of the songs is, but also plain and... sincerely, this is Coldplay, sometimes prejudices are not far from reality. I knew it wasn't for me and, after listening to it, I can conclude I wasn't wrong. This album is just not good.
I liked it, but I didn't love it. This album is a good one, it's interesting in many aspects, but lacks of more development, at least for my like. I really appreciate the influence it had on the metal genre (and specially some of its subgenres), and I'm glad that albums like this one are part of that musical journey. When I finished listening to it I wondered how fast the time passed. It has been such a pleasant listening.
When the album started I thought it was nice but, as the songs went on, I started to lose interest on it. It's 90's alt rock... If you like it, good for you, but something that sounds like an Oasis album with some electronic sounds and bland intros (so you call it psychedelic – if the endlessly repetitive, ambient and uninteresting Pete International Airport is not an example of this but extrapolated to a whole "song") and repetitive lyrics is just not for me. Some songs weren't bad, but I wouldn't listen to the whole album again just to listen to them (in case I would want to listen to them again, which is not my intention for now). At least the last song, The Creep Out, is a nice ending with a better psychedelic attempt (if the album had more of it instead of... nearly all the rest).
This album is... horrible. I don't know how I've listened this entire collection of stupid, repetitive and boring stuff. I hate hip-hop, and that's the perfect example of why. There are nice hip-hop songs, but most of them are the same garbage, and that album is even worse... Almost an hour of... this!!?? Really? I feel like I've lost my time today.
I don't know how to call this album, but most of the songs sound the same (if not every single one of them). If it had more personality of its own I would have liked it more, but that folk-county based on long, boring and repetitive songs is not something I'm into. What I liked the most are some instrumentals, which are delicious. I understand it's more of a lyrical album, but if the songs are bland, I just can't focus on anything else than... when is "I Dream a Highway" going to end? Really, its length is unjustified, it's the same melody on repeat for over a quarter of hour.
This one is a really surprising album. I've enjoyed it so much, and, as the songs go on, it keeps getting better. I didn't know what to expect, I thought it wasn't going to be much of my like, but it has been such a pleasant listening.
It's a really good album, but not impressive enough to make me love it. It's not a 10 for me, but truly a 9. It's a very pleasant experience, with great instrumentations, Miles Davis is a great performer, and this album is the reflection of the work of talented people. I need more listens to really love it, but surly it's a great one. After all, it's Miles Davis, the album can't be anything but great.
Red Hot Chili Peppers is a band that, despite its popularity, is nothing really special nor amazing. This album is a good one, some tracks are really nice, but there is some filler there also. It would have benefited from being shorter... or more inspired at least. At least the last song ends the album in a great way.
What a surprisingly great album, so full of different sounds and originality. It's funny without losing its musical interest and experimentation. It's strange yet so enjoyable. And all of that with a great taste that makes of this album a fantastic musical experience.
Well, I swear I try to be open-minded but... This was horrible! And I knew it even before listening to the album. At least it's not the worst thing I've heard of the list, but, why is it supposed to be an album I should listen before dying? I get there are many different genres on the list (and that one of the main goals of listening to those albums is to enlarge our musical tastes and discover new stuff), but, is it really that good for people who like rap and hip-hop? Because this sounded really really bad. Maybe it's that I don't get what people find interesting on those things, but I'm fine with what I like, and, no thanks, I can say I tried those genres, but that's not for me. I'm not going to pretend I like it, this album is boring, tasteless and sometimes (if not many times - just look at some lyrics!) stupid.
What a fantastic, delightfully perfect album! It's robotic, futuristic but also terribly human. I can't describe with words how marvelous the listening experience was. The electronic genre has evolved a lot, but that very human interaction in this album gives it a very warm sound. I have to listen to this one many more times, I've definitely loved it.
I wasn't expecting much of it, mostly because I once tried to listen to the whole thing. But, after (finally) listening to the full album, it just feels bad and bland. There were a few songs that weren't that bad or I even liked, but this album is just too much. And it's too much grunge for today too. If Nirvana was successful is because of the times in which they were making music, but they are nothing special, and, even sometimes, they are bad... Like really bad! There are other ways to try to avoid to be mainstream (if it was really what they wanted, which I'm not really sure to be true).
When I saw it was a rock album I didn't think it was going to be a very house influenced record but... whatever. It's nice, funny and with some interesting textures and different sounds, but it's not a really good album though. Some house tracks have been too much for me but other songs were good, so I'm divided with my opinion about this album. If some songs were shorter it would have been much better, but I really appreciate all the work done on this album and how many sounds coexist in this very diverse record.
Some albums are great and others are excellent timeless masterpieces. This one is of the second group, being a testament of Madonna proving for the seventh time (and not last) why she is the Queen of Pop. This album comes from one of the most reflective and creative times of all of her career, for which she went deep into the electronic music and meditation, rediscovering herself and giving a new perspective and dimension to her career. Ray of Light is a diverse yet very cohesive album, with great pop songs. The pop genre dives into lots of textures and fantastic lyrics in this record, that would shape the genre for future generations. This album is not just pop, it's electronica, rock, a bit of folk, and, overall, Madonna at her best shape.
This album is great from beginning to end. All the songs are excellent and so full of Presley's energy. Fantastic and so enjoyable, this album is a classic, if you like it or not. Great for Elvis!
At first, I thought I would like this album more than I actually do. It's a really bad record, very 80's pop, but in a very bad sense. It feels uninspired and full of filler. I didn't like it, that's all.
This album is great, irreverent and funny, a really rocker record that is such a surprisingly enjoyable listening.
Some songs were good, or at least not as bad as the others because the bad songs were horrible. This album is like a mixture of different sounds combined without much sense. Sometimes it works (not really sure if well, but at least it does) and others it terribly does not. Not to talk about the last song, but at least it was just less than a minute.
I didn't expect that album to be good, actually. It's not something great, something to highlight, but I liked it, at least some parts, and that's something... And more if we're talking about Lenny Kravitz, who can be a really boring guy.
It's a really good album, not their best but a great one for sure. The songs are all very enjoyable and there is some diversity too, which is always something great.
The album wasn't bad, but I don't understand all the hype on Slipknot. The music is nothing really impressive, it's just some intense music that lacks of anything else.
This is a beautifully pleasant listening, with so many sounds and sad songs, but all made with, again, a beautiful touch, so delicate and great. Not all the songs where great for me, some felt less interesting and good than others. But, overall, the album is greatly done, so I won't give it five stars, because I would be too generous, but four are fair enough for a solid record as this one, which is really delightful.
This is excellent! A great and full of pleasure and joy experience. Those guys are fantastic, and this album is marvelous. I loved all the bass and guitar, so present and dominant in the record. The production is also great. I have had so much joy listening to this album. Great, great, great!
This album is so enjoyable and intentionally stupid that makes it a funny and pleasant listening. The instrumentations are great. A really nice one, not perfect, but it doesn't have to be perfect or excellent to make you enjoy it a lot.
This album is really good. Some songs were not much of my like, but, overall, the album is really enjoyable, and it's two hours long, which is something difficult to keep the interest of it during that time, so it's really worth listening to. I also loved the different textures on it. It's beautiful at many times.
This album is not much inspired, it's raw and feels like a collection of unfinished songs with not much to say. I thought I would like it, but it has not been the case. Some songs were good, but most of the album was bland and uninteresting for me.
This album is GREAT! All the textures on it are a delightful thing to explore, and to think of it as a debut is insane. There is so much creativity there. It's so experimental, and so interesting too. This may be my favorite psychedelic album that I have listened so far. This music is made for listening to it, to dive into the atmospheres it creates through the minutes, to get into it and enjoy it. And it's fantastic the music of this The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn. It's not pretentious, it's genuine and wonderful, and smart.
This album is so beautiful, and not just relaxing but really deep and interesting, with so much flavors. I really enjoyed it, it is calmed but a delight for the ears.
This album is a masterpiece. There's not much to say about something that is near to be perfect. It sounds great, and the instrumentations are fantastic. That's what it is, magnificent. So delicate and energetic, and interesting and inspired. Great.
This album is really uninteresting. All songs are insipid. They are not bad, just correct, but that's not something that would make them good. Instead, it makes them commercially successful, which is not something bad but that shows a lack of interest in making something more genuine. However, this album is so bland that I didn't enjoy it in the least.
It is not bad, some songs were fine but it's just the same thing over and over and, honestly, there is not much interesting stuff on there, just a bunch of mainstream songs that are bland and feel uninspired. Overall, it's Robbie Williams, he's not a genius, nor someone interesting at all.
Listening to this album is like listening to nothing... It's a murmur that mumbles instead of whispering something. It's bland and repetitive and, still, there's nothing. Nothing. I think I liked more the last album of R.E.M. I was assigned, and it wasn't of my like at all. But still it had something interesting, if I may say interesting for a R.E.M. album.
This album is delightfully beautiful, at many times oneiric, with quite interesting instrumentals. However, some songs weren't really of my like, feeling more like pop songs with not much interest. Overall, this is a good album, pretty solid, but not a 10, nor a 9. I'll give it an 8. And still I've liked it a lot, but there are things that are not that nice. It could have been much better.
While listening to this album I was thinking that I could have listened to this in a clothes shop. It is repetitive, plain and with basic beats, too safe that it can't be good. Some songs have nice instrumentations, but the overall is far from working well. Badu's voice feels tired and uninterested, and sometimes is very strident and tiresome.
It's not bad, but there's not much variety here, and some songs feel longer than what they really are. It may be because of the vocals, which sometimes get too tiring. Or because of some songs sounding quite the same. Anyway, it hasn't been really of my like. It's not bad, it's not good. That's all.
This album is really good, I've liked it a lot. It's so enjoyable and the songs are great. I don't think there's much to say. It's great.
This album is really good, it's a very nice listening. It's not great, but pleasant and entertaining. The music is well done and it has some different sounds that make the album flow and not feel repetitive or plain. It was nice, I liked it.
I wouldn't have ever thought I would enjoy that much Elvis Presley. I loved the first album I was assigned and, now, this one has been excellent. It is funny, varied and really entertaining.
This album is... nice. I didn't expect to like it, but I did. It's not bad at all, even though it is not something I would highlight. Some songs are fine. The overall doesn't work for me, it has some songs that feel repetitive and unnecessary. Most songs have a vibe I don't end up liking. But it's not bad.
This album is really good, so interesting at times and enjoyable at the same time. It's not great, but something I've liked a lot to listen to.
This album is strange... But terribly delicate, wild, beautiful and enchanting. It is such a journey, and it has so many layers that needs of more than one listen to get to perceive all of its interest. I will listen to it more, and it's going to grow on me. But, my first thoughts about it are that it is something great, so experimental. I loved some songs. I guess I will end up liking more the others. But, overall, I've enjoyed a lot this album. Listening to it has taken me to many places, to many thoughts, to many emotions. This album is really good. I liked it a lot.
Really? Is it supposed to be one album I should listen before I die? With this list I have listened to many hip-hop albums and, honestly, it's driving me to boredom. I will try every and each album, and listen to the whole thing. But, as I've said many times, I don't like hip-hop. It's tiring, and I don't care if you're a genius combining samples with whatever you want, it doesn't work for me. Listening to this album is like listening to the same song, all the time, over and over. And there's nothing interesting. Do you need to say "fuck" all over the same song just to make you feel "rebel", "young", "tough" or whatever you want to be? Because it feels like a joke. This album is boring. But also irritating. I will repeat myself with a previous review, but it feels like a waste of time. I understand the point is to listen to different genres, but I've listened many mid albums that I'm sure are not on this list that are far better than this one. But, again, I don't like hip-hop, so, to begin with, I wouldn't have liked this album. And that's what has happened.
What to say about a masterpiece?... That this album is perfect! Everything on it works perfectly, so well linked and with so many flavors. It's one of the greatest albums ever made. That's it. And no one can make me think differently. It's perfect.
This album is pretty great. It sounds really good, being a live recording, and it has great songs. There's so much personality. I liked it a lot.
This album is good. It's length is the worst part because there's a time in which it loses interest and becomes the same thing over and over. I'm not saying it's a long album, this one is not, but it has many songs that sound the same. But it's a nice album. I enjoyed a lot the begging. And I thought I would have liked it more, but it becomes the same thing, more or less, when you've listened to half of it. So, it's good (and enjoyable) but not a highlight for me.
I found myself liking this album, more than what I thought in the beginning. It grows and, even though there are some songs that are not that good, it is such a nice listening, and really enjoyable too.
This album is... boring but with some interesting tracks. It has a kind of bland rock I don't end up liking, and the electronic incursions are not that well delivered at times. However, it has some songs that are not that bad, though, but most of it is uninteresting. This album is just not really of my liking.
This album is nice. Musically talking, it is more or less the same than other musical projects of the same style. I wouldn't say it is innovative in any aspect, which is not bad at all, but, then, it has to impress me much to really appreciate it. So, it is not much interesting in the musical aspect, but it has some good songs though. I guess I liked it, but just that.
This album is nice. It's not mind-blowing in any sense, but it has good tracks. I don't think there's much interesting in there, it's enjoyable. And that's fine. There has to be also music just for the sake of having a good time. But I wouldn't say it's anything great.
When I first saw it was grunge I thought I wouldn't like it but... Wow, I'm really surprised it didn't happen at all. I've loved this album. This is so good! It has a great combination between hard rock and grunge that it doesn't make it feel repetitive or tiring. Instead, it is so fresh and a very enjoyable listening experience. Also, the guitars and the vocals are a highlight for me. But the overall is great, so I've really liked everything there.
Nice attempt to make something between beautiful and interesting. But it's not that interesting though. I liked it, but the songs tend to feel long, losing their charm at the end. I would say it's more of Americana, country-folk than country itself, but it combines nicely different sounds, yet sometimes this album becomes monotonous. It's a different take into country (or folk, I would say), which makes it interesting at parts. It's just not that memorable to make me love it.
I've really enjoyed this album. It is so good! And it has great songs on it. There's not much to say, it's a funny and very much enjoyable album, which is also great. Not all albums need to be very deep, varied or intense to be great. Sometimes albums like this one are such a great listening. And that's fine too.
At first I thought I would like it, at least a little but... well. There are a pair of good songs, but the album loses its interest really quickly. I went from "well!" (in a good sense) to "meh..." so fast. And, I think it's the thing with this album. Most songs are just the same thing all the time. They feel repetitive, as if there wasn't any kind of differentiation between them. And, so, it ends up being really boring (not to talk about how plain some songs are).
This album is really good. I liked it a lot. It is so much fun to listen to and also a short but really enjoyable experience. It's not something I would highlight but a really well done record, for sure.
Ok, this album was... Ok. I was in with the first two songs, if they were the only songs on the album. What happens to me with this kind of music is that I get bored too soon. It is like listening to the same thing over and over. One song is nice. I wouldn't say it's great, but I can listen to it. But not more than this, please. So, yeah, I don't find this album interesting in any aspect. It keeps on getting boring and boring, more and more.
I think I would like Adele if I listened more of her but, what concers that album, it is good, yet not that great for me to love it. Some songs are really good, but others don't have much power on the overall of the project. But I liked it, it's a really pleasant album to listen to, bland and uninteresting sometimes, but being most of it good and nicely done.
This album is so good! All the songs are great. It is really enjoyable, I liked it so much. This is the kind of album I can listen and not get bored of. Great!
I haven't liked that album much. It had different sounds, but many times they didn't work that well. It has a nice sound, even though it's not what I like at all. But some songs were good. It's just not what I actually would want to listen to.
This album is really good. It really feels like a space trip, sometimes with the Beatles. But the music is so funny and enjoyable, and interesting too. It is such a great listening. So great, yeah.
I couldn't care less about it. I understand the intention of the album, the interest on making some of its songs, but I just don't like this kind of music. So, I value the artistic intention of this album, but it's not done in a way I can value or like. I would give it two stars because of the jazz incursions and some experimentation but... am I really liking the way it's done? Not because you have something in mind or you want to do something deep means you end up doing it. I'm not saying it isn't any of those things, but, for me, a person who doesn't like hip-hop at all, this album is just as the rest. It may have something I like a little but, overall, it's an album of a kind of music I don't like. And it really is not interesting for me, anyway. Do it the right way and, then, talk to me. But not with this album.
I am really pleased and surprised I liked this album. It is such a good record, coherent and very well developed. The songs are fantastic. It is, more or less, the kind of american folk music I really like. It's really good, for sure.
Of course this album is great. I mean, it's Rumours by Fleetwood Mac. It's not the best album ever, but it is really close to it. It is great from start to end, and it is a really strong record. So, of course, it much deserves to be here and to have five stars.
This album is actually good. Just not impressive enough to make me say it's something to highlight. The songs are good. What really doesn't work is the overall result. It feels repetitive at some point and becomes more boring than anything else, even if the songs aren't bad. It's just too much. This album being shorter or more inspired would have helped to make me like it more.
This album is... Well, it's Janis Joplin, what can go wrong? It's great! What else can be said? This album is fantastic, from beginning to end.
This album is actually really good. It's not something impressive, some songs were not much of my like, but, as there is so much variety there, there are songs that are great. I would say that more than twenty songs should be justified but, to be honest, I don't even care with this album. It's almost an hour and a half and, still, it felt like less time. And that's not that easy with albums of that length. So, I liked it, of course!
Another hip-hop album... What can I say? That it feels bland, uninteresting, insipid and repetitive to me? Of course, it's like listening to the same thing over and over just to end up where it all began. Nothing. This album gets me to nothing. So, did I like this? Of course not! But I knew it even before clicking play. I understand it's a musical genre that doesn't interest me the less, but I've listened to many hip-hop albums with this list and, still, I haven't found good at least any of them.
This album is really surprising. I loved how subtle yet beautiful and wonderful it feels. This album is so well done, with so much softness and care. It is, definitely, such a pleasant and interesting listening. Some songs, however, feel less powerful as they don't contribute sonically much to the album, feeling a bit bland. But the overall is splendid. So, even if I don't care about some songs, I can't deny this album is actually good.
I've never listened to this album before, but I've listened to other Peter Gabriel albums. So, this one is great, yet not his best project. I've liked it a lot. As always, Peter Gabriel explores different genres, sounds, even cultures, and at this he is excellent. This album is exquisite, with a lot of textures and layers. It is delicious. But, yet, I get to the conclusion that it's great but not excellent. Although, of course, this one is an album to listen to, and I will revisit it more than once.
I liked this album, so much. It is fresh and has many good songs. I didn't expect to find things like that on this list, but I'm glad there are. It was hard to find the album, though.
This album is mind-blowing. It is fantastic, since it begins. All of the songs are great, or I should say excellent. It doesn't lose any quality, being all the songs standouts on a very cohesive and well-done record.
I didn't think I would enjoy this album. Honestly, Radiohead doesn't make the kind of music I would want to listen to. But maybe this is just a prejudice. This album is great at some parts, about others I don't really care. But, as an overall, it feels very well done, cohesive and not repetitive at all (which was what happened to me when I listened to Amnesiac, I felt it was bland and boring, with not much to say, actually). So I'm glad this album is much better that what I expected, and to have really liked it.
Really? I don't understand how it can be an album I should listen before I die. Is it cohesive? Well, yes, but it's so long that starts to become boring at some point. Is it fun? I would say... It could? I don't get the fun of hip-hop, of the lyrics or whatever is fun here, but I'm not going to judge. I don't like hip-hop at all, and that's just me. Is it the problem here? I'm pretty sure, but it doesn't change the fact that this album is just like much more of the same hip-hop has been about. Sonically, it's not interesting, it doesn't explore anything else than LL Cool J singing over samples, simple melodies and a rhythm base, which is the main thing about hip-hop... So, what's the interest here? I guess you have to like it, but, again, I don't like this stuff.
Two consecutive hip-hop albums... And it feels like it is trying to tire me to boredom or convince me to like it by repetition. Well, I'm going to reinforce my opinion. Once you've listened to one hip-hop album, you've heard it all (or, at least, a ninety percent of what you can expect of this genre). This album is repetitive, long and bland. Its length wouldn't be a problem if the music were interesting, but it's not the case. And (more of a critique to hip-hop than to this album as I don't think the lyrics of this album are good at all) I can't focus on the lyrics if the music isn't interesting for me. It's like having so much noise in the background and trying to focus on a conversation... It doesn't work. As this album, I didn't like it at all. But I knew it even before clicking play.
It's the 80's new wave fever and... Well... Does it mean the music is good? Not really. Most of it is just horrible. But there are some good songs and albums too. The thing is that this album is not an example of this. There are two nice songs (even though I am not sure if they are actually good). As for the rest, I don't care. It is insipid and uninteresting.
This album is more of noise than rock, to begin with. It's not that I don't like noise at all, some albums of that genre are interesting but... It's not my thing (at all). As for this album, it's repetitive and uninteresting most of the time. There are only two songs that are, at least, decent. It's not that they are actually great but at least there's something there. And one of them is the last song. As for the rest... I don't care.
Well so... What's the point? This feels repetitive, and in a very bad way. Most of the songs feel endless, and they are all the time the same, with basic beats and uninteresting synths. The only song I liked a bit (and I wouldn't say it's good) is "Aquarius" but, well, the songs that follow are just... Some are not that bad but, the album, as an overall, is something I would never listen to again. Honestly, this atmospheric thing is not for me.
I should have liked this album but... I didn't find it interesting. It is not bad though. I just didn't enjoy it so much, it feels like some covers all together without much sense. And maybe it really is that way.
This album is hauntingly beautiful, wonderful, so greatly done and with so much taste. It's great, and I can't say anything other than it, I've loved listening to it. It's great to discover albums like this one.
This album is so great at times that it hurts me to feel that some songs were bland and uninteresting to me. While listening to it my internet decreased until the last song, which was pretty nice. So, I liked it, but the album has many aspects that doesn't make me love it.
This album is quite interesting, not my cup of tea but I will not deny that I enjoyed it. It's very ethereal, and I liked it so much. I wouldn't probably listen to it again but it wasn't bad at all.
I find myself bewitched by how much I've liked this album. Some songs are simply beautiful... And that's not a simple thing at all, to be fair. Some songs are not much interesting musically, but, as an overall, the album is fantastic. Most of the songs are a delight, with such precious arrangements. It's a really warm and beautiful album, for sure. Even if there are songs that haven't convinced me, I must say I've liked it a lot.
Okay, this was bad... Bad and boring. I mean, there's nothing that can save this album. Metal? I think it's more of rap than metal, seriously (but I don't like rock-rap or how it is called anyway). However, in the end, I don't care what genre it is, it feels uninteresting and too long for what it has to offer (which is nothing actually). There is one song (or two) that isn't that bad but... it isn't even good to be fair. I'm sure there's people who like it but, for me, it is definitely something I will never listen again. Really, what's the point on making this? To feel "cool"? Well, this is the "uncoolest" thing ever... It's so artificial and silly that sometimes it feels more like a parody than something serious. I am honest, I have listened to the whole thing without prejudices, but one song or two are listenable... More than an hour and ten minutes is just too much!
This album is really good, I enjoyed it so much. Many songs are fantastic, so groovy and funky. The big song here is, definitely, Papa Was A Rolling Stone, but there is a lot of variety, and also other great songs too. So, even if it's not a perfect album for me, it's worth being on the list.
This album is really good. It has many great songs, even though it's not that strong for me to actually think it's great. At some point it feels like it doesn't have much more to offer. But, overall, the album has great songs, that's something that cannot be denied. And I enjoyed it a lot.
I thought I would like this album more. However, it feels tasteless and uninteresting, but, overall, pretentious. Some songs are nice, but the album doesn't favour them, and they are not as strong to actually make this album better than what it is.
This album is fantastic. I enjoyed every single song, and the first one is flawless and a great introduction. Also, this album has so many layers that it's such a pleasure to be listening to it. I mean, I loved this!
This album is great, so cohesive and enjoyable. I am really surprised the sound is very clear. And, also, the songs are fantastic. What a great album to discover! It's not a masterpiece but sometimes what you need is something fun to listen to, and this album is great at that.
This album isn't bad, but it's not much of my liking. It's very safe, and doesn't offer much more than 80's new-wave, which becomes very insipid for me and is the same thing all the time. So it's nice, not bad, but not that good to be a highlight. I would give it a 5 out of 10, so three stars is fair enough.
This album is great. The songs are really enjoyable, and it is a very strong recording overall. I wouldn't say it's excellent, but it's a highlight for sure.
This album is really good. However, I liked so much Call of the Valley that I thought I would love this one – and maybe I'll do if I listen to it more –, but it hasn't been exactly the case. It has beautiful music, that's for sure, the album is enchanting. But I haven't enjoyed it that much, to be fair. It is really nice that the songs start with an explanation of the music, though. So, overall, it's an album I have to listen again, but a great musical experience.
Ok, another hip-hop album... I'm getting tired of this genre (so much!). I understand that it has been very influential, but, for me, hip-hop is very uninteresting and repetitive, and this album is all of this too (as bland). Lyrically, it is interesting at some parts, but I can't think about it if the album is driving me to boredom.
This album is really nice at some points as well as uninteresting and bland at some others. It is not great at all, but not bad though. It just feels insipid when the songs start to feel the same. It's a good album to listen to without much attention, it's funky, groovy... very enjoyable. But just that.
This album is a fantastic example on why live albums may also be great, adding new layers to the discography of many artists. It's such a great experience to listen to it, and the songs are excellent.
This album is pretty good, I've enjoyed it so much. It's not much interesting sometimes, to be honest, but it's a nice listening. And some instrumental parts are fantastic.
I suppose this album is nice. Some songs are good. However, others are bland. I have a mixed opinion on this one. I felt interesting some parts, but I don't like how the album has been developed sometimes. It's not bad, though, but it's not something that I would highlight either.
This album is actually really great. I haven't ended up liking that much some of the songs here, but most of them are very impressive. So, even if I doubted whether to give it four or five stars, I think it well deserves five. The variety of sounds and layers on this album is amazing. I've enjoyed it a lot.
This album is not bad, but not much of my taste. I don't like grunge music that much, and this album in some way portrays those things I don't like of this genre, even though some songs are pretty interesting, and I have to admit I liked them. So it is nice, but not my cup of tea.
What a delightful album! All the layers on this record add a very impressive atmosphere, so interesting and deep. It is mostly like a cinematographic experience. This album is so immersive, perfectly developed, with so much care and subtlety. I've loved listening to it, it is such an extraordinary, immersive, fragile, deep and pleasurable experience. I have no words for how great this album is. I mean, it is fantastic, a ten out of ten, there is nothing bad here, everything feels so cohesive and magnificent. I love this album. It is one of the best albums I have ever listened to. And it is such a pleasure to have discovered it today.
This album is pretty good. All the layers and textures in there are very well developed. It adds a lot, as it's such a nice immersive experience, sometimes not that interesting but, overall, a very pleasant listening.
This album sounds like many other britpop albums. It's nothing interesting (in any way) and it becomes very repetitive. It is so bland and, in some way, uninspired too. Yes, it may have songs that are good, or, at least, not that bad, but, overall, the album is very long for what it really has to offer. The songs are not good at all. Some are more enjoyable, but this does not mean that they are actually good. So, this is a very forgettable album with very basic and generic songs.
This album is pretty good. It's a very easy listening, but yet really interesting too. I've liked it a lot, even though the last songs started to feel a little less interesting for me.
I've loved this album, definitely. It's such a pleasant and very interesting musical experience, so immersive and with so many layers and textures. This album is incredibly experimental but also beautiful and haunting, so soft and ethereal at times... So magnificent! It's truly a highlight for me.
I didn't think I would enjoy this album, not really when I started listening to it. But, as the songs went on, I have enjoyed it more and more and, to be honest, I don't think it's bad at all. This is not an album I would eventually want to listen to, but I (kind of) liked it. It's basic in some aspects with some interesting textures sometimes; some songs are more atmospheric, but without losing the very industrial essence and aggressive beats that give this album some sonic consistency and power (even if it lacks of being more interesting to make me want to listen to the more than an hour that it consists of again). So, even if it's far from being something good for me to really like it, I won't say it's bad. But it's not my style at all, for sure.
This album is nice. However, even though it's good, some songs are a bit bland and repetitive, and it's nothing impressive, to be honest. So, I liked it, but I can't say much more than that about this album, except that it's pretty enjoyable.
This album is not that bad, but sometimes it becomes a chaos of different sounds that feel a bit bland. I liked some songs, not much, but a bit. But others were very insipid for my like. So, I don't think it's bad, but it has some aspects that haven't convinced me much.
Well, this album doesn't add anything new to the blues genre but it is very enjoyable, and I can't deny that I liked it a lot. It doesn't feel repetitive or long, to be honest. It feels very well linked. Also, all the songs are very well done and the production works really well when trying to sound raspy and noisy (yet it actually is very polished).
This album is fantastic; it is not innovative in any sense, but it has so many great songs! I am surprised by the variety here but, also, by how cohesive everything feels. This album truly is a very enjoyable one. I've liked it a lot.
This album is truly something special, there is something enchanting in the way the songs sound and evolve. I've liked it a lot, it's very sweet and delicate but also very interesting and with many variations. There is nothing bad I can say about it. This one is really good!
This album is very (very!) insipid and uninteresting for me. I've said the same thing about the other hip-hop albums that I've had to listen to, but this opinion doesn't change as I go through more of them. Then, I guess it's that this genre doesn't interest me in the least, but, again, I will always be open-minded when listening to those albums. Yet it always comes to confirm me that this genre sounds very bland to me. This album is very long for songs that sound exactly the same. The sampling in this one is well done, sounds fluid and nicely combined with the other elements of the songs but... I just don't get the hype with this genre, it is interesting in theory but very boring for me when I start to listen to it.
This album is really good. I enjoyed it a lot, and it has many great songs with many different sounds. Everything works here perfectly. I don't know what else to say about an album I liked that much, I can't find any flaws.
When I started listening to this album I didn't know what to expect and, honestly, I thought I wouldn't like it that much. But, as I got in the mood and the songs went on... Well, I mean, wow! I've loved listening to this album.
What a funny album! I've enjoyed it so much and, yet, it's so brilliant, with so many different layers. It's really interesting. I've loved this one, so much. Some melodies here are truly enchanting and lovely. What a delight!
This is a nice live recording, it truly is but... it's also Nirvana, which makes even the Bowie song sound depressing (and it's not a bad cover, to be honest). Some songs were good, others not that much, the band's own songs sounded more or less the same and, well, it's not my cup of tea, of course, but I thought I would like it more. Because of the more refreshing sounds and "variety" as well as for the covers, I give this album three stars, but it's not an album I would ever highlight (and there are better live albums than this one, I have to say).
This album is good. I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought, maybe because I had high expectations, but I've liked it overall. Some songs are not much interesting, most of them are good, but nothing is remarkable enough for me. So, I liked it, but not at the extent to make me love it.
This album is really beautiful, so enchanting and funny at times, ethereal and dreamy at others... I've enjoyed it a lot, it has been a very pleasant experience. Some songs didn't resonate in me much, others were blander but, overall, this album has a great and very cohesive sound atmosphere and delivery, with some great songs.
I've liked this album a lot; it has many great songs and flows really well. It felt really rapid for me, so cohesive (without being bland or repetitive) and interesting. There are songs that I felt less enjoyable but, yet, they didn't get me off this album. I won't say it's perfect but it's a solid album, a very solid one. And, of course, one I will listen to more.
This album is fantastic. I haven't listened to many Beatles albums (of course, I have already listened to Abby Road, Sgt. Peppers and others, but there is a part of their discography I have never heard) and I have to admit that I am starting to think that it doesn't matter which album is next, if it's from them, I will like it. This album has some songs that are not great but most of them are really enjoyable, and some really interesting, with different layers and inspirations I truly admire. It's not a ten, but a nine out of ten for sure. What a delightful experience!
This album is actually pretty good. It's wild how in some songs there are so many different and interesting layers, how they converge that well and create an effervescent atmosphere. Other songs are not that interesting but, even though, this album is very solid and enjoyable.
This album is great. I've enjoyed it so much and the songs are all so good. It's that good that it even feels short. However, sometimes it needs something more, more great songs to make me think it's awesome. This album demonstrates how good Talking Heads are but... I still need something else. I don't know what but, even if I think everything here is very good, I'm not that convinced of loving it. So, it's great, for sure, but I'll need something more to say "I love it".
This album is great, so raw and vibrant at the same time. I mean, Johnny Cash has a power when singing that is capable of resonating on the inside, of transmitting so many things. And the songs are great too. I won't say it's perfect, as I don't think so, this album is not one of the best live albums I've ever listened to but a very decent one, with a really good repertoire and a fantastic sound. But, well, it's Johnny Cash, of course the album is great.
That's why I feel 80's new wave (and in general) as a very boring genre. The songs are... meh! And the album is... too long for being too short! This is bland, insipid, uninteresting, generic... What else? Oh, yes, bad too. All the songs sound the same and it starts to get even annoying.
This album is really bland and uninteresting. It has some nice arrangements, but there is nothing that really blows my mind, and the songs are not good at all. Some are nice, but others are simply insipid. So, well, it's not that bad to get one star, but it's not a good album. I would never highlight it.
This album is actually really good. I've enjoyed it a lot listening to it. It's fresh, it's funny and it has also some interesting tracks. This album is not a masterpiece but it really is a great one and one that is definitely so enjoyable to hear.
This album is a masterpiece. I mean... all the layers and sounds here are insane. It's very theatrical, so sophisticated at times, others so wild and complex (well, it's actually complex all the time, so enjoyable and beautiful and haunting at the same time). The musical depth and care in this album are brilliant, with a very solid result so diverse yet cohesive. Some songs are not much of my taste, but those are a very small part of the album and I value (and enjoy) a lot all the "interludes" (or links between longer songs), which give this album more presence and maximize the listening experience. The overall is brilliant, most of the songs are great, even I would say magnificent. I love how in the first part of the album Another Brick in the Wall becomes a kind of "leitmotiv", even though my favorite part of the album is the second one. So, what to say about this album; it's a fantastic one. It's very close to perfection for me.
I found this album really funny and very enjoyable. It's really good, actually, and it's got a great background. So, I wouldn't say I've found it a masterpiece but it's great to hear albums like this one.
Wow, Willie Nelson cannot truly make a bad album. This one is fantastic. It's conceptual, it has a cinematic vibe, also, it has different sections, so well constructed with different melodies. It's a very dynamic album. There are many beautiful instrumental parts, other funnier ones... There's place for everything. And everything merges so well! There's a main theme (or "leitmotif") that gives a great sonic cohesiveness as well as the feeling of being immersed in a tale, which is also supported by how some songs blend into the next one. All the songs contribute to the overall result, being magnificent from beginning to end. It's very enjoyable and haunting, and magnetic. I've loved it so much. I've listened to other albums by Willie Nelson but this one is the best one of them for sure.
Maybe one day I will enjoy a hip-hop album but, to be fair, the more I listen to this genre the more I think I won't. This album is a little bit better than other hip-hop albums I've listened to. But it feels bland and repetitive. The samples are very well put in this album, they merge really well with the other elements of the songs. But, well, I've tried this album, it's just not of my taste.
Well... It's not about Morrissey, I'm not going to talk about him (and I don't personally know him, so I won't attach my opinions about him to the quality of this album), I promise. But this album is really bland, so tasteless and insipid. It's a very soft rock without much interest. It's not harmful, it could be background music and I wouldn't even care about it. But, well, I've listened to it with all my attention and... it's very boring, to be honest. He has a warm voice (and I think I said the same in my other review), that's fine, but the songs are not of my liking. And about the lyrics... Well, I won't talk about it. Some doesn't inspire me in the very least. So, yeah, I didn't like this album.
Oh, well, I knew I would like this, but I never thought I would really like that much this album. It's such an enjoyable and diverse album. Arrival is a great song, which discovered me Mike Oldfield's version is a cover. There are really funny songs, others that are also quite interesting... There's room for everything without losing the essence. I've liked a lot this album, truly.
This album is pretty great. I've liked this a lot, and, honestly, there is nothing bad I can say about it. Maybe it's not the most innovative album I've ever listened to, but it is such an enjoyable one. So, even if it's not a masterpiece, it's a solid nine for me. Really good and enjoyable, with some fantastic tracks and a little bit of variety (even though not much).
This album is... Well, not much of my taste. It has nice songs, but nothing that really impresses me. It's very basic at times. So, well, I liked it, but not much, and it's not the kind of music I would listen to.
This album is pretty great. I've enjoyed it so much, and, honestly, it has many great songs. I don't know what else to say. As other albums I've given five stars, I don't think it's absolutely a masterpiece, a perfect album, but I could listen to it many times and not get bored of it. It's a solid nine, enjoyable and with great music. What else may I need?
This album is great. It's really mind-blowing. There is a lot of variety, but it doesn't lose interest or the hook, instead, it gets so much power. It's both, haunting and beautiful, magnetic and energetic. I've loved listening to it, it's such a great one, for sure.
This album is really good, the songs are pretty great. I didn't think I would like the album, I have never been much interested into Elton John's music, but I should check it out. So, well, it's not fantastic but it is really interesting.
This album is pretty nice. Not much of my liking, to be honest, but it has good songs. It's at times a bit bland, and a very safe one for me. There is not much variety and, as for what is there, sometimes it's not that interesting. But, overall, it's nice.
This is awful. There is no other way to describe what I've listened to. Some songs are not "that" bad but, overall, it's a very uninteresting, repetitive and bad album. I'm not into this music, and I honestly can't understand the love to drum and bass and this kind of electronic music, but I guess it could be less painful. I mean, the album gets really boring by the second track, and it doesn't get any better at any time (and it's more than an hour long!). Maybe this kind of music is made for listening while being on a disco or something... I don't really know, but consciously, with all my attention, it actually is based on very long songs that are all the time following the same structures and rhythms. What may I find interesting here? Is there anything I'm missing? Because, honestly, electronic music can be interesting, all the layers and textures in the songs but, with this album, I can't even enjoy it, if there is anything to enjoy here more than jumping to it, and that is something I didn't do and that I'm not going to do – one listen has been enough. Next!
This album is fantastic! And it just gets better. I really liked the first songs but not at the extent to love it but... Wow! It evolved into something really interesting and grandiose. I love how everything is so coherent here and so different too, how there's time for (long) instrumental parts, which add a lot to the atmosphere of the album. This is truly a gem, I've liked it a lot.
This album is not bad at all... nor good at all. It's (just) nice. I'm not going to lie, I liked it, but not at the extent to love it. I've enjoyed some songs, other felt really insipid and forced. This album has fun music on it sometimes but it also tries to be deep in some sense I don't understand. Some songs are so long and uninteresting that I wonder why it has to be a double disc album if they could have chosen some nice tracks and make something more interesting. But, instead, the album is so long that, at some point, you've listened to all it has to offer (and there are still another ten songs more that don't add nothing new).
This album is... better than what I thought it would be. It's not the R.E.M. I remember, it's much more interesting, to be honest. However, it's still not my cup of tea. The album is good though.
This album is fantastic but... of course, it's Madonna. It's great how in this album Madonna explores also new sounds and introduces more experimental aspects to her music, which was something that she started introducing even back to Like a Prayer. In this album there's place for more atmospheric tracks (Paradise (Not for Me), Impressive Instant), other folktronica ones (Gone, Don't Tell Me), as well as others heir of the (great) Ray of Light album, which is no coincidence at all (I Deserve It, Amazing), and club ones (Music, Runaway Lover), without losing any coherence. I absolutely love this album, I'm not going to hide it, and I would say it's one of Madonna's best, so diverse yet really well condensed. Madonna's music is often underrated, being her character/persona and performative skills more valued more and over her music itself. However, she is so fresh to deliver new sounds and adapt them to her music, always with a personal touch. This album is one of her most "pop" records, but still has her interest to dive in new sounds, and they match so well her style. For something she is called the Queen of Pop, she is so great at making very different albums from each other without losing her essence, and this Madonna period is one of her most creative ones. It's electronic, but also very human. It's fun, all the contrary to Ray of Light, it's an escape, a way of thanking music for what it's done to her and how it acts in our world, as a way of expressing ourselves, of freeing ourselves, of uniting ourselves.
This album is actually pretty great. I've liked it a lot, it's got a lot of different sounds and interest changes while being so cohesive and enjoyable. It's not perfect for me, though. I wish I'd liked it much more, and I thought I would, but some songs have not made me love them. So, it's great, for sure, a fantastic album that joins psychedelia with rock in a very interesting way, but sometimes with not that great results. Maybe I need to listen to it a bit more and, then, I'll have a better opinion.
Ok, this is probably one of the worst albums I've ever listened to. And I've tried to like it but... there's just nothing to like here. Honestly, I can't find it. If that's about the beauty of the noise in music, there are better albums of noise, or that combine noise with other genres. It feels arbitrary, nonsense, extremely long and without any other purpose than just for the sake of making an album that is simply bad.
Oh my... What's that noise? For sure! At least it's not "that" noise I listened to yesterday, Lightning Bolt's Wonderful Rainbow, but this album is not good at all. At least it's listenable. For that, two stars. I think from yesterday's album I can only go up, so maybe I'm being generous. Take advantage of that, Coldcut, and take my rate, because there is no other way I will listen to this album ever again, and if I do... Well, maybe you won't get two stars. What a boredom!
