Mismatch of emphasis and talent imo. I also couldn’t get over the feeling that they butchered my favorite song from the Three Penny Opera

What a masterpiece! Incredibly versatile and deep

Hey-ho I went and I koved it

You think London Calling is the best Clash album. I’m sure it’s this on. We are not the same

I needed to listen to the White Stripes for the better part of my Saturday after listening to this in order to get this HonkyTonk Bullshit out of my system. Why anyone would think you must listen to this album is beyond me. I‘d rather die than listen to it again

One of the very few classic Post-Punk records I never really warmed to. I know it’s good bit it never blew my mind.

I was surprised at how relevant Fear of a Black Planet still is today. The impact of this record on music history can't be measured in stars. I should actually give it 5 stars. For listening pleasure alone, though, I'd give it 3 stars, as the old-school style was often too edgy for me.

THE consensus album of the late last millennium. no matter which scene or music genre you identified with - this album everybody seemed to like. I hadn’t listened to it in more than 25 years and was grateful for the nostalgia. Not sure how good this is objectively but I spun it four times yesterday and enjoyed it more on each return

I just realized I don’t like this album. Radiohead are among my favorite artists but here their sound oscillates between a self-loathing Nirvana clone and 90s balladry interspersed with post-rock elements. I forgot that I only liked Radiohead after they found their unique sound with Kid A

Weakest BB album imo

Since I have a soft spot for Brazilian Bossa Nova I had a good time with this album

I fell asleep while We Hate You was playing in a loop. My neighbor later asked me if everything was ok - so let’s say this album stimulates communication

Clearly, DDDDC > HtH. Why isn’t the former on the list, I wonder?. Still a very enjoyable experience to revisit this classic

Since they stole my fucking Creedence I have to settle for this

The best thing I can say about this album is that it gave me ample opportunity for silly jokes because it’s just bad (even though it’s Thriller). I remember not liking this album when I was a kid and everybody’s dads and their mums where celebrating this. This was long before Michael was red-flagged the world’s most notorious predator, of course

I‘d rather listen to all Throbbing Gristle albums simultaneously for 30 hours than to one more song of this terrible plastic karaoke masquerading as new wave, reggae or whatever

For me, this album is a flawless masterpiece. If I would have to think of an album that best represents the emotion of love it would be this one ❤️ it’s soothing, charming, heartwarming, and stimulating at the same time

Uptempo songs: yay👍 - ballads: nay 👎 I don’t need to listen to this again but I can respect the musicianship that went into writing and performing these songs

One of my all time favorites 😍

Sounds like the kknd of band that was invited to the Saturday night entertainment shows that ran on TV when I was a kid. Neat, tidy and doesn’t hurt anyone - and I hate that in music
