Not gonna lie, this album was a nothingburger. Nothing about this one stood out to me. Very soft and repetitive. Just bland all around.

Definitely a foundational album for synth pop coming into the 80s. Very important historically, but not really my kind of sound.

Absolutely incredible experience. This was actually my first time ever listening to a Pink Floyd album. I now understand that psychedelic rock would not be what it is today if it wasn't for them. This album had everything I enjoy when it comes to the genre: a plethora of sounds and instruments with some amazing performances on the guitar. I love it when I hear a noise that I didn't know an instrument could make and I experienced that on this album. The album plays like one big song, which is something I adore. Shine On You Crazy Diamond is literally half the album and I couldn't be happier about it.

A fine funk album, but I've definitely heard better. Shining Star is definitely the best song on the album. The rest of the tracks kind of overstay their welcome; there's too much falsetto throughout and it loses it's luster/charm. I do really enjoy the variety of instruments in this album (marimba, harpsichord/dulcimer?). As a fan of the funk/ genre, I feel like this falls a bit flat for Earth, Wind and Fire.

What a throwback. Listening to all of these tracks makes me think of late 2000s and 10s. Great album to come back to.

What hasn't been said about this album? It's Prince at his finest. Can't get much better than this once-in-a-generation album.

One of the best opening tracks ever. This concept album has been praised by critics and fans alike as one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time. Hell, one of the greatest albums overall. I personally prefer "good kid, m.A.A.d city" over this, but it's recognition still stands.

The album that defined the 90s and grunge as a genre. Plenty of iconic tracks on this one, but the second half of the album isn't nearly as gripping. Maybe I just don't prefer this kind of big noise, in-your-face style of rock music. Nevertheless, I cannot deny its status in the world of music.

Very fun. Makes for a great porch listen with friends.

Yeah this album sucks dude; there's no way around it. I really thought the guitar could save it, but the lead singer is just so goddamn annoying. There's no cohesion and it doesn't know what it wants to be while simultaneously bringing nothing to the table (other than singing about pissing in the shower). I was just waiting for this one to be over after the first 5 minutes.

Baba O'Riley is such a killer opening track dude. Good few legendary songs on this one. Overall pleasant listen, just short of a 5.

It's a classic for a good reason. No album collection would be complete without it.

It's Jimi Hendrix. Nuf said.

Very theatre coded. It feels like I'm listening to an opera or a movie score. Some nice vocal work on this one, but it's not an album I'd ever come back to. Definitely below average overall and a left-field pick for this list.

This album shook up the entire world of rap. It's corny as hell and was very popular with poor white kids. Eminem is a talented lyricist and an absurd storyteller through his music. Endlessly revolting and shocking, Eminem is the quintessential white rapper. While TSSLP isn't his best work, it's some of his most iconic.

The father of American Folk music. It's a fine album but, like with most folk music, it's 50 minutes of very samey sounding songs. Not too compelling, not awful to listen to. Just fine.

This album was quite experimental, even for a genre like jazz. Charles Mingus is an absolute legend in this genre, so I understand the placement on this list. But this was a little hard to follow and I consider myself a jazz enjoyer.

A little too high brow for my taste. I love poetic expression and experimentation in music, but the vocals got old after the first song. The concepts were difficult to understand with a casual first listen. This sounds like an album/artist that would have a dedicated following of interesting people. Wouldn't pick this up again at all, but the guitar is pretty nice.

It's a weird album, but kinda fun in it's own way. The Kanye sample hit me out of left field.

God damn what an incredible voice. This brought me to tears, as this kind of music makes me think of my family. Amazing personality and performance from the great Sarah Vaughan.

A fine punk album. Very abrasive. Not great, not terrible, just okay.

The album with Everybody Hurts on it. The whole album is definitely very same-y sounding, but it's a good sound. Songs you'd play in a boutique to sell knicks and knacks to middle aged white women

A fine traditional country album. Real folksy and inviting. Like a reminder of a bygone era.

Experimental as always from LCD Soundsystem. Kinda weird, but in an endearing way. This album drags its feet though. Didn't need to be over an hour long.

Kinda boring. I don't like children singing out of tune on my albums, thank you very much.

Who knew elevator music could be so appealing?

Not gonna lie, this album was a nothingburger. Nothing about this one stood out to me. Very soft and repetitive. Just bland all around.

Very close to a five, just a few weak songs here and there. Nina Simone is such a powerful voice and storyteller in her music. Great experience.

"Everyone knows that no means yes." Yikes. Pretty shit album, close to completely unlistenable. Couldn't finish it.

I thoroughly enjoyed this one. It was definitely all over the place, but in a pleasant and high-energy way. It's like butt rock and ska at the same time. I'm here for stuff like that.

Just didn't like the sound of this one at all. I'm giving it a two because I imagine if you're the right kind of person, you'd love an album like this. I'm not one of those people.

His falsetto sounds like a crying animal and that's the inflection for the entire album. Admit it: you only say you like this album to get with women.

Classic rock jam out session. Makes for great music for gatherings with your bros. Peak fishing music.
