There‘s a sign at my wall that reads: Nu metal 🚫 New metal 🚫 No metal ✅ For this album I‘m going to make an exception because it really is something special - but just this one time ☝️

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

Solid album that doesn’t much for me. Pretty meh

If I had been fucked by this album my summary would be something like “It wasn’t bad … just the kind of casual experience that fades from memory almost as soon as it’s over. All that I remember now is that he looked a bit like Robert Redford as Jeremiah Johnson.”

I‘m not saying this lightly: *clears throat good kid, m.A.A.d city sittin’ top of the throne, That Compton storytelling still sends shivers down my bones. While To Pimp a Butterfly is complex, preachin’ deep, Evry other skit feels like homework soon to put me to sleep *mic drop

Lots of talent, obviously, but I didn’t really vibe with the songs

The album goes on quite a lot, Clearly, Each ballad in tears was wrought, With the same mournful tone, One long, droning moan… By track ten, you wish you were not.

Top 10 of my favorite Jazz albums of all times easily

Somewhat delighted and a little confused, I give this album a four-star credit because I think its sweet weirdness will grow on me over time even though it hasn’t clicked yet

„Too many MCs“ - word!

That’s the kind of discovery I signed up for. I had no clue what to expect and I liked this a lot

I can say without a doubt that this is the best country album I listened to in its entirety. 2 ⭐️…. It is almost bearable

One of those albums that should be a fixture on topsters, yet somehow flies under the radar these days

Listen to this album and complete the following sentence: This album is an essential contribution to this list because _______________. ….. See! You can’t!

* beats rhythm on the car roof with hand and drags on stub of joint, smiling all over

I was thinking about giving this one 5 stars for so long that I just went ahead with it only to get on with my life. Probably worthy of it, though

I‘ve been in love with this album ever since I listened to it for the first time in 1994 and I couldn’t believe that it would still click immediately after all these years. One of the most original, unique and innovative Hip Hop albums out there, with lots and lots of excursions into different styles and genres. Awesome production as well. Definitely one of my favorite albums of all time

Wtf is Outlaw Country? Sounds like a failed state

Two dressed up clowns ruining an Ex-Punk band‘s otherwise solid songs with their uninspired guitar soli, whiny singing, and racist lyrics. Should have died from heroin 💉

Incredibly boring 🥱 In case you’re wondering how boring, I asked ChatGPT and here are the best answers: 1️⃣ This album is so boring it makes elevator music sound like a mosh pit. 2️⃣This album is so boring it should come in a box set with a complimentary pillow and blanket. 3️⃣This album is so boring I had to check my pulse after every other song just to make sure I wasn’t comatose yet. All true btw

Another great discovery that I hadn’t previously known existed and that really blew me away. This is peak Proto-Noiserock (on a personal note: I don’t really see a connection to Neo-Psychedelia nor early REM but rather to bands like Chrome, Pere Ubu or even Devo whom nobody in their right mind would call ‚psychedelic‘ these days) I had to give this a fiver. kudos!

exactly zero memorable or remarkable moments on this completely forgettable album

Ironically, I had just listened to Ride the Lightning for the first time in decades and was blown away by the incredible musicianship documented on this album. Hence, I was really hyped for MOP and celebrated when it showed up this morning. However, I have to say that it pales in comparison to RtL which is the superior album in every respect. I‘m still trying to figure out why but the obvious answer has been suggested a million times now: the death of Cliff Burton who had given an entirely new meaning to what musicianship can entail in Metal songwriting - compositions that raise passion and enthusiasm even in Non-Metalheads like me while staying true to the genre and pushing its boundaries further and further. I guess there is still something of that creative energy noticeable here but weaker and less cohesive. Im going to listen to RtL now

Were it not for Brian Eno, David Bowie, Aphex Twin, Robert Fripp, Gang of Four, Autechre, Massive Attack, Portishead, Radiohead, Wire, Tricky, and many others, this album would give me ample reason to declare all British people insane just for buying this rubbish that borders on campy Eurotrash pop for considerable stretches of its playing time.

Me (before listening to a Motörhead album): „Yeeeeeeeeaaaah, let’s do this, you animals! Let’s got! Motörhead! Rock‘n‘roll!!!!“ Also me (after having listened to a Motörhead album): „I think my migraine is acting up again“

➖For an AC/DC album it’s actually only decent ➕a decent AC/DC album still stands mile-high above the rest

I went in with the best of expectations and NYaCH only took five songs to shatter them all. Quite a few songs here are actually pretty terrible and almost ruined my day. In a world where Dinosaur Jr already published a few albums, why would I listen to Ragged Glory?
