I can understand that some people may not like this; it's loud and it's unpolished. However, as a fan of this kind of alternative rock, I'm the target audience for this album. Still don't think it's particularly inspired. Pretty cool though!
I don't even need to finish the album to give it 5 stars. Nina Simone is the best voice of all time.
I wish there were more albums like this
I'll be revisiting this in the near future!
As Amy Santiago would say "Ya Boring"
I remember the first time I listened to this album, many years ago, in my dad's car. First song in and I thought, "woah, this is great", second song canme in: "amazing". Third song "another great song"... We reached the end of the album and I really enjoyed every song of it. It was probably the first time that that had happened to me. After that I "borrowed" the CD from my dad and listened to it many times in my room. Actually, I never returned the album to my dad haha The energy, the RAGE, Morello's riffs, Zack De La Rocha name and singing, the whole "no samples, keyboards or synthesizers used in the making of this record", made this album the coolest album ever to me at the time. And I guess that many years later, I still feel the same way.
It's really unfair to judge this album. I mean, PJ Harvey had broken up with him, I can't think of anything more devastating than that.
It's that good
Paint It Black and a bunch of generic rock songs
Ohh the 90s...
It's not bad. But I'm pretty sure I've written, in my bedroom, better songs than some of the ones in here. But I didn't even record them because I thought they were not good enough. Maybe I'm just not a fan of this genre.
Top 10 albums of all time for me
This album is very pleasant
