This album starts off strong with some uplifting tracks but soon melds into one ongoing synth with little differentiation.
Did I enjoy it? Yes. Did I think it was just generic music to slowly sway to? Also yes.
I didn't get a story, and I didn't get the heartbreak that everybody else did.
Epic journey! I only know OutKast's more commercial hits but every song had something! Even if this isn't you're go-to genre, you can't deny the mix of musicality across the album. Great collabs, great lyrics. Starts strong and the final track is a great conclusion. Overall - this slapp'd!
These harmonies blew me away! I have been recommending this album to anybody who would listen!
Excellent album! It is shorter then other recordings like Folsom so marked it down a little. The highlight is the chat between the tracks for me - really pulled it together.
I mean....excellent. This is a truly EPIC album. I now understand why I see it on so many t-shirts.
Ooft - this was a slog. The guitar I'm Sage Man redeemed it (but not much)
If you're going to get freaky - get freaky. And some of these tracks were FREAKS (I loved it).
You can see they know music because the cultural influences are clear!! You'd have to be blind not to hear them!
Very well done background music. I enjoyed it but wasn't blown away
Absolute classics! Songs to scream to. Songs to cry to. Songs to rock out to! Winner!
As an intro to grunge - I think this showed off the extreme and the commercial. Definitely would've moped to this when I was a teen.
Felt like I was in the credits of a Pixar Movie...I like that
Still don't like Jazz - but this was okay.
Adele is one of the strongest voices to come out of British Pop in a LONG time, but this album....not the best babes. It's quite routine in what and she's done a lot more with a lot less.
Love a bit of new wave - very easy to listen to
Funky funky music! Talk about giving a diverse listening experiences 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
I liked this more then I thought - but it was all the classic folk songs I liked
The vocals and the instrumentals are lush - easy driving music!
I felt like a manic pixie dream girl in an early 00s independent film. Unsettling but not disagreeable
That last track was indulgent but really sexy. Slapped.
Excellent morning pump up album!!!
I was headbanging too hard for the motorway! Loved this
Although I found it slightly repetitive (arguably it's just their sound) - it was a complete album
Disc 2 helped me do admin. Disc 1 was a slog. 4th time was a charm
It's quintessential British rock but I wasn't moved
This album made me not hate the miserable weather I was driving in! Freedom Flight was gorgeous
The bops bopped but the rest...meh.
It's smart - achievable vocal ranges and repetitive lyrics make the songs very easy to sing along to. But I'm not falling for your trap Agnetha!
I was surprised how much I liked this - I had it on whilst working and wanted to actively listen.
For a debut - it's a good start but he's not the King yet!
Full of Bops!! But some songs were a bit slow for my taste
Loved this! Can listen to Björk for days on end!
I enjoyed this - it's like early ska
All I knew about Ladysmith Black Mambazo was from Mean Girls - and I'm so happy I finally listened!
It's a gorgeous album but could do with a bit more variety to get to that 5.
The guitar and vocals alone sell this album! Probably more 3.5
The music is gorgeous and the lyrics tell a story - but my god this is a dirge
Love Pulp - best kind of juice!
This album made my day!!! Who knew I had funk in my soul?!?
An ethereal blend of folk riffs with an indie twist. Loved this!
Looking back you can see the transition from the sugar cubes to modern Björk starting here! Ethereal vocals with eclectic melodies - LOVE IT!
A great storyteller with a distinctive sound and good use of music - but so distinctive it kinda became samey. You have to give props to the only person on both the Shrek and Moulin Rouge soundtracks
There's some fun blends of genre here but I just feel that you have to be obligated to like the Beatles
Way more versatile then I expected - but missing the kick from Meg White
Not my favourite Megadeth but some of those bass lines slapped!
What. A. Voice. I felt like I was in the room being enchanted by this vocal siren
This was a journey! Living in Brum now, I see why Sabbath are such a big deal!
Golden Years haters need to suck it! It wasn't the album I needed this morning but it was easy to listen to.
The vocals on this are excellent and used in a smart, different way. Love a bit of ska!
I loved the sound of this! Good classic country/pop vibes.
Excellent album! Proper good start to the day with this one
I agree when people say it's the background for a 2000s heist film - but it does work as good background music.
A true storyteller - I didn't mind the length of the tracks and I'm no size queen!
The rich rawness of her voice is tantilising - however the live elements of this album didn't make me feel a part of the process.
Some of these tracks were definitely used after somebody died on Grey's Anatomy
Of the time but not of my taste
Bit Beatles - bit beachboys - bit okay
Slightly soporific but I loved the sound
I'm glad the band from the Wicker man (1973) got their big break!
I will henceforth be known as Suzy Creamcheese. No questions will be taken at this time.
This takes me back!! Definitely of a time but bringing back the memz
The samples on this are wild! Loved them!
Well Cindy - you've impressed me! Bop after bop!
This was really distracting at work - but only because I wanted to really listen to the music. Not bad Kinks!
Better then the last one we had...but now I wish I had given the other a 1.
I've really struggled to rate this because it was fine. I thought Patti Smith would be a bit grittier.
I really came to Kate Bush through Stranger Things (sue me) but when you delve into her mysterious melodies you see why it fits an epic dark fantasy so well!
Pleasant but unremarkable
Thought this was going to be way more sad! I'm quite impressed
This was pretty cool not gonna lie
Excellent Album! Great variation and the live tracks prove just how strong Blondie is!
This is the first album where I've truly questioned that it's in the top 1001. The guitar riffs were original so that saved it a bit...but not much.
I don't know why I expected to dislike this - I was wrong! Give me that politics!
Why is this T-Shirt so popular?!? Boring!
I've wanted to hear the keyboard solo inn 'Roundabout' since 2003! This wasn't what I was expecting from Yes but I had a good time listening
I'd have a dropped a smiley and had a boogie to this back in the day!
Welcome to Watch mojo and hears a list of albums you didn't need to listen to
Great use of sampling - the "shouting" helps me get stuff done!
So refreshing compared to the majority of Dad Rock on this list!
Actually really liked it - fun to rock out to (softly). Plus big love to black country performers 🎉
What a treat!! A salsa-y treat!
Lyrically interesting - but I just found it a bit dull
Not my thing - but Eminem walked so Iggy Azalea could strut. I appreciate that.
Jazz I can get behind - genuinely beautiful! The start really punches your ear drums!
I've never smashed out so many emails - like having a personal hype man! This did slap!
Genre - Angry Noise
I don't know who fought to have this album on the list - but what a hill to die on! Some of the guitar and drum riffs were pretty cool (especially in 'On Fire') but overall, no.
So much hate for a really easy listening album!!
They use an epic range of instruments and some of the demos are excellent! Sure, it's simple, but just relax and enjoy it!
It's giving Goofy Movie - and not in a good way.
Great Rock Album - don't think it's the best Foo Fighters but a solid sound!
Always a Queen! And if nothing else, I know how to spell Latifah!
The Rolling Stones do karaoke - great covers but you know there's better stones albums on this list.
I've bopp'd to the bops - but some tracks just felt lacking
This sounded like one continuous song
Nostalgia boost but genuinely a really good album! Loads of variations between tracks whilst still maintaining a consistent sound
First Rock Opera on the list - I liked it
After reading more into this - it's an excellent political commentary, which I think Randy Newman handles very well.
The perfect relaxed country album - could be played whilst lounging on a sunny day or riding a horse down a trail!
Truly great album - proper ethereal!
Musically interesting. Tastefully - not for me
Solid album - nice tracks.
A simple album with great lyrics and even better musicians!
Genius is a fair descriptor. Just damn good music!
Great album with some great instrumentals. But the sound got repetitive (but annoying)
I didn't know what to expect but I have listened to this album on a loop!
Would love to hear this live in a smokey bar!
Absolute joy of an album!
What I would give to be at this gig!! Some live albums fall flat but this one does not disappoint
Intriguing. I doubt I'll jump back to it but I was impressed by the mix of sounds
Bit too much Geiger counter vibe for me - I was more interested when I read about considering it a concept album. Going in blind didn't help it
You can tell he was smitten when he wrote this.
Good mix of samples - feels like it could've been released in the 00s.
VEGETARIAN PROPAGANDA!! jk
It was actually pretty cool
Vibes Vibes Vibes. This got me through a very rainy day!
Enjoyable but unremarkable. Try harder Tom Petty
Proper journey of an album - opening and closing with variations of the same song made it feel complete!
Melded into one meh. I don't hate it. But I'm not jumping back in.
Bloody loved it!!! Just wanted to dance!
This was really good! Fun - easy to listen to - good vibes
Peak Americana! Should've finished on born to run
Lyrically and musically EXCELLENT!
