"Not wrong, just... Wrong for me".
When I've first listened to the album somewhere in the early 00s, it blew my mind. It starts with Sunday Morning and my first thought when I've heard it was "you're telling me this is the music people were making during the Beatles era"? I felt it sounded like a modern song, not one from almost 40 years ago.
And it's not just Sunday Morning, there's All Tomorrow's Parties, I'll Be Your Mirror, Heroin - I could list the entire album that way.
One of my favorite albums of all time.
There's enough great material for a single album. For a double album I'd say not everything works - but I'm not really a great fan of Led Zeppelin.
But I have to admit, the second I saw the album cover that's been chosen for that they, I immediately heard the riff for Custard Pie in my head.
I've had lots of fun listening to this album and I even came back to re-listen some of the songs during the day. But the thing is, there's just a lot more interesting music from this time period that I already know of.
Still, it's good and I'll definitely introduce it to my kids.
Again, not a bad album. There are some good songs there. But overall, it's just not for me.
Definitely not for me.
Absolute banger.
Listening to the album I had one thought in my mind - is this just one long song or are the songs so similar to each other that they're indistinguishable? Turned out it's the latter.
Not for me.
Excellent, absolutely unhinged.
When I've realized this is a reggae album I was like "oh no...". But then it turned out the album is pretty fun. I'm probably an ignorant when it comes to reggeae, because when I've heard it I thought "ok, this is not something I would call reggae". It reminded me of bits from Kult's second album "Posłuchaj, to do Ciebie".
If you like you're music interesting, this is the album to go.
Sounds great, the energy is fantastic, liked it a lot.
This is something I should have liked, but I found it really boring.
Didn't like it, found it boring and monotonous.
Short, sweet, but not for me.
It's grand, it's lush, it's beautiful.
It was pretty good, but it's just not my thing.
The guy rips his heart out on the album, and just sits there bleeding, sending banger after banger. It's deeply personal and it ain't pretty, just as art should be.
Pretty boring.
Her voice is like silk or velvet. Perfect soundtrack for those long, autumn evenings.
Too intellectual.
Sounds like a typical mid 90s pop album. Not bad, but nothing very interesting.
21 songs in 35 minutes - no time for fillers. Excellent album.
I've always thought Ray Charles music was way more powerful, but it's kind of meh for me. Seems outdated even for its time.
There's energy and some good songs, but ultimately I don't think I'll be revisiting this album very often.
Sounds like a concept album, but boring.
The most inoffensive album you'll ever hear in your life. A great soundtrack for riding the elevator. Music for people who hate music.
I think I might have not liked it.
Not great, but pretty different.
Judging by the cover I expected a post punk album, but I was surprised. Not bad, but didn't really catch my attention very well.
Just a hit after hit after hit. I like this album very, very much. It's one star short because it's not one of THE albums for me.
Sounds very uninspired. Didn't like it.
Very earnest, which is probably not that unusual for a country album. There are a few good songs here and there, with Honky Tonk Heroes being an absolute banger.
It's not really that much about the music. It's about the vibes. And the vibes are immaculate.
Very easy listen. Better than expected, considering that this is not my favourite genre.
I had no idea who k.d. lang was. Then when I turned the album on, the most beatiful woman's voice you can imagine hit me. Quite a few excellent songs there, could easily be Bond movie theme songs.
I really enjoyed listening to this album.
Definitely not my thing.
No.
Unfortunately I don't take drugs (I even drink my Coke decaf), so couldn't appreciate this album the way it deserves to be appreciated.
Couldn't tell if this was ironically fascist or not.
Absolutely nothing interesting about this one.
Just the right amount of angst.
Seems cozy and familiar, but pretty forgettable.
More interesting than entertaining. I might give it another chance some day.
Not bad, but there are better new rock revolution albums out there.
It's hard to talk about Morrissey's music without considering how much of a douchebag Morrissey is.
But yeah, this is Morrissey in his prime and boy did he know how to write those songs, even if it's not his best material.
Not my favourite material by the Smiths, but still good.
I saw the title and the cover and really wanted to hate this album. Instead I found out it's fun. And let me say this - those aren't players, those are NERDS.
Yeah, it's as good as you've heard.
It was ok, I guess.
Come on, this is Low by David Bowie.
No.
It was ok.
Incredibly fun, uncompromising & great songwriting. It still sounds fresh in 2025.
This was a weird one. First of all, I don't know why, but initially I thought this was an album by PANDA Bear. And I was like "alright, let's go!", and then "this doesn't sound like Panda Bear at all".
So, I was disappointed and thought it's kinda boring. But then I decided to give it another try in a more favorable environment.
And it turned out I like it! It's an acquired taste, but there some really nice music in there.
Probably my first unexpected five out of five stars. This truly is the sound of the 90s when it comes to electronic dance music.
I felt like I should give this album AT LEAST 2 stars, because I like The Who. But this album did absolutely nothing for me.
I feel like one day with this album is not enough to really appreciate it. I will probably get back to it at some point.
One of THE albums for me. Perfect in every way. One of the few albums I rate six out of five.
It sounds exactly as you'd expect - Talking Heads-ish sound, but without David Byrne. And don't get me wrong, I like the guy, but it's a nice change.
Very fun, some very good songs. Enjoyed the experience.
It starts incredibly strongly, but then it, well, fizzles out by the end. This is one of the albums I definitely need to listen to later, because I feel that one day was not enough to appreciate it.
It's a little bit like Led Zeppelin, if only you'd take out like 50% of the blues out of the songs and instead replaced it with a little bit more of a pop sound.
So yeah, a little bit like Led Zeppelin, but BETTER than Led Zeppelin.
Nice.
I didn't love it and again, I don't take drugs so can't appreciate it in full, but it was actually pretty good.
This album is something else. If not for the fact that it's something that's absolutely not for me, that would be a straight up 5/5.
But yeah, you should definitely listen to this album, even if hip-hop is not your thing.
Absolutely unhinged. There's so much going on it's even hard to describe, this is pure emotion translated to music.
Sounds very dated, even for its time. I didn't hate it, but didn't particularly love it as well.
I'll definitely go back to this one. Catchy tunes, good energy, I liked it very much.
It's a mediocre Radiohead album.
That first song is pretty good, but the rest of the album has been a slog for me.
You can say I have basic taste, but this album is fun.
If you've never been a horny 17 year old boy you'll probably not gonna understand this album. There's banger after after banger, it's absolutely relatable and that last song I've been playing pretty much every time I was getting back home from a party when I was a teenage boy.
I don't like Radiohead very much but this an almost perfect mix of experimental and accessible. It's out there with The Bends for me.
It's not that I hate Janis Joplin - I like some of her most famous songs. But this album? I felt nothing.
One of the greates debuts of all time and a truly timeless album. And I literally mean timeless - it doesn't sound like 80s or 90s music (although it has been a blueprint for britpop), it's its own thing.
It's a hair from being a 5/5 for me. But it's so, so good.
It's either this or Trans-Europe Express that's my favourite Kraftwerk album.
I feel like this one might grow on me. Will definitely check it out again later.
Jump is fun, Hot for Teacher is horny, but ultimately the entire album was just meh for me.
I feel like I should have liked it more, but it was just fine for me. I like my prog rock less noisy.
Nice and fun.
Not the worst thing I've ever heard, but I was absolutely not interested in this album.
Not for me.
Wow!
That's a lot of shouting!
It's definitely a Beatles album.
I found it intriguing and Half-past France was really, really good. Will definitely have to give this one a listen again.
Yup, that's Frank Sinatra alright.
Well, turns out I don't like grunge very much. This one felt like a chore.
Definitely need to relisten when I'm not so terribly busy.
Nothing memorable.
Yup, that's Elvis alright.
It's less than 24 hours after I listened to it and can't remember almost anything except that I think it was alright.
They definitely should have coco'd harder.
More Coco than the last one.
It's not some kind of a masterpiece, but it's definitely a fun album.
A lot of the albums from late 70s sound very dated, but this one is fun.
Pretty good!
A fantastic Christmas album. Forget Spotify's Christmas playlist, just put this banger on.
Unbelievably modern. It doesn't sound like the 70s, this is instead more like 90s music. Way ahead of it's time.
Even if not groundbreaking, could be most artists' best album. But as this is David Bowie, then it's four stars only.
Sounds like a pretty generic new wave album - but I like new wave.
I didn't hate it, but it was kinda meh.
Not what I'm looking for when I'm listening to music, but it's not bad.
Fun and swingy.
Another album where the listening felt like a chore. Dull & cynical. Absolutely hated it.
I don't know why, but I thought that Simply Red sounds totally differently. But this was actually very entertaining. I liked it!
It's everything you'd expect from a Paul Simon album. Unfortunately, nothing really hooked me, hence two stars.
This is the album that makes you realize why Bob Dylan is such a respected artist. It's a great listen.
It feels like a very very good album, but I just don't vibe with this kind of music.
I will definitely need to revisit this someday.
This is definitely a mood. It's not an easy listen, the songs on Loveless are way catchier. But it still feels like a logical continuation of MBV sound in the 90s.
Is this one a crowd-pleaser or what. It's basically an equivalent of a successful four quadrant movie. I enjoyed it very much.
When I was to start playing this album I've noticed More Than a Feeling was the opener and I was like "oh no". Don't get me wrong, this is a great song, but I've heard is so many times I was just tired of it.
Turns out it might be the worst song on the entire album? The rest sound pretty fun & fresh and not only listening this album wasn't a chore, but I had fun with it.
Very cool! Definitely need to revisit.
I immediately gave this a second listen and then put Love Galore on repeat.
I enjoyed this a lot.
I mean it's alright.
Not what I expected, but again, was pleasantly surprised. A lot softer than I thought.
Even better on drugs.
Exactly what you'd expect based on the album cover, but also good.
I don't like The Rolling Stones, but this is pretty good for a Rolling Stones album.
There's something interesting out there somewhere, but can't put my finger on it.
I was thinking about this album recently and thought to myself that yeah, it's pretty good, but it's still one of the weaker ones. But then I relistened to it in its entirety for the challenge and wow, there's banger after banger.
Pretty solid.
Listening to Guero was a chore, this one was actually good.
It was enjoyable.
Unfortunately it did nothing for me.
Now I understand why some people enjoy Metallica.
Way better than 1984.
Not as good as I was expecting it to be.
Masterpiece.
I absolutely didn't know what to expect and this turned out to be one of the most interesting albums I've listened to in a long while.
I have to give it to the album that it sounds waaay ahead of its time. But unfortunately it's not really my thing.
No.
Way better than I expected! I liked it and will definitely revisit it.
This is probably a 4 star album. Sounds a little bit like The Stone Roses, but at the same time it's its own thing. Definitely need to revisit later.
Another album that might be a 4 on a further listen. Something to revisit later.
I don't like blues rock, but this album wasn't that bad. Found one song that I really enjoyed, the rest was just a little bit boring.
I really, really liked this album in my teens. Then, in time, I started considering it a bit cringe, so I was pretty biased when I started listening to it again. But once you move past Vedder's singing mannerism, it's actually pretty enjoyable.
Amazing album. In current dark days if you're looking for something optimistic, hopeful, even blissful or idealistic THIS is the right album.
I enjoyed it. Another one to revisit later.
I don't know if people realize how important these kind of albums is. I don't know if this has been influenced by Brian Eno, or if it influenced Brian Eno, or if it's just a circle of life of constant inspiration.
I liked Highway 61 Revisited more, but this one is also pretty good.
It's really trying so hard to be artsy that it forgot it also should be entertaining.
God no
I mean I didn't hate it. Sounds Supergrassy at times. It's ok but don't think I'll ever revisit this album.
It had its moments, but overall, it didn't feel very inspired.
That's the kind of energy I want to hear in live performances. You can clearly hear they are having so much fun.
I thought I'd hate it, but I didn't. At the same time, it's serious, but also lightweight and fun.
It was a nice listen.
To be honest I expected more. I mean, I like Bohemian Rhapsody as much as the next person, but the rest was so forgettable.
Extremely boring.
Way more fun than I expected! It's got great energy and it's absolutely hypnotising (which the haters would call "being repetetive").
A great piece of music history and a definite recommendation.
NOICE.
I'm definitely a Kind of Blue kind of person. This one is a mood and in the last few busy days I didn't have the space to fully appreciate this album. It's rough around the edges, it's noisy, it's uncomfortable (as all art should be). Will give this one a relisten in a few years, but right now this is two stars for me.
Is Octopus's Garden the best Beatles song ever created? Probably not, because that bridge is not that great. But you can't not like an album with Octopus's Garden on it.
Nothing groundbreaking, avant garde or experimental, just very sincere.
It started very strongly with that first track, but quickly fell apart for me.
People give Coldplay a lot of flak, but if you were 14-15yo when this album came out and you wanted to have a nice, sad, melancholic summer, this was perfect.
Coincidentally, I was 14-15 yo when this album came out.
Every one of us goes through that music discovery period, when you have enough time & energy to keep up with current musical releases. For me this was the last great album of that era. Minimalistic, vibes only and 17 years later (wow, where has the time gone) it still sounds fresh to me.
It was good as a background music, but I literally cannot remember any song a day later even though I listened to this album 3 times,
What a delightful, sincere little album. My hot take is that this album is better than Abbey Road. Hear me out: on Abbey Road the Beatles had their heads way too far up their british arses and you can definitely hear that in their music.
But here? They are still working as a team. And they are full of rock and roll energy.
It sounded out of place for a 70s album (in a good way!).
Also sounds out of place for an 80s, 90s or 00s album (in a good way!)
I don't like grunge, but this is more hardcore punk than grunge. What immensely helped was the fact that it was so short.
It was pretty good.
I hate the term "world music" as much as the next guy. But I just usually don't know how to enjoy it. This album wasn't bad, it was a nice little something playing in the background. But when I listen to music, I expect more.
Even though I'm more of a Thriller guy, this album is absolutely amazing.
My first thought on hearing the opening number was "wow, I like this A LOT". But then it turns out this album is a lot of things and not all of them are to my liking.
Very intimate & personal.
Funky & experimental. Didn't like this album when I was in my 20s. I appreciate it way more now, although it's still not my favourite Talking Heads album (that would be Stop Making Sense).
This one is definitely a mood and I can feel it growing on me. Three stars for now, but once I find time to properly relisten I might upgrade the rating on this one.
That's a one angry guy. I mean this album seems very personal and it's probably just not for me.
I've listened to this album three times because I thought "come on, this is just fine, there's surely a song that's going to grab my attention", but after one day I remember absolutely nothing.
Nice background music - that's all it is.
A sweet & old-fashioned little jazz record.
Red Rain is an absolutely fantastic opener. It's emotional, it's larger than life, it's absolutely fantastic. Don't Give Up is another highlight. The rest of the songs are not as great, but I still very much appreciate that 80s production. Will definitely revisit this album.
It's by no means bad, it's got the energy and some really nice melodies, but if I want some thrash metal, I'd rather listen to Master of Puppets.
I enjoyed it way more than Back to Black. It was chill and unpretentious. This is definitely something I'm going to revisit during those beautiful summer evenings, just soaking it up together with the last rays of the Sun for the day.
This is absolutely not a bad album, but what the hell is it doing on this list?
It's good. Will need to listen to it some more once I'm in the mood for it.
Now this one is excellent. It's fun, it's horny and it perfectly encapsulates that late 90s feeling.
It's the sweetest, most gentle country record one can imagine. If I liked country a little bit more that would be at least a 4 or maybe even 5.
This is great stuff, provided you start your journey into ambient with this album. If you instead start with all the modern ones, this might seem pretty basic - because this is the one that inspired them all. But it's still a great listę on a Łazy Saturday afternoon.
A fantastic album. The songs are so good - just banger after banger after banger. I didn't listen to it enough yet, but this might actually be a five star album. I love the new wave'y sound, I love how diverse the songs are (with some of them having that larger than life feeling that I absolutely love about the 80s). Will definitely revisit this more often.
Everything you'd expect from a Simon & Garfunkel album.
Not bad, just not for me. Although I've got some grunge next in the pipeline so I might regret rating this relatively low.
Pretty good but also pretty forgettable.
About half of the album is extremely emotional and powerful. The other half does nothing for me. Hence 3 stars.
I don't like funk or soul, but this album was pretty nice! Papa was a rolling stone was excellent and there were a lot of chill, laidback songs that made the experience pleasurable.
Sweet, gentle and quaint. An album from a different time. Unfortunately, it does very little for me and works best as background music.
I'm starting to have a feeling that country is way overrepresented on this list. It might be my
Not my favourite David Bowie's album but there's so many great songs on it that I keep coming back to it anyway.
This is I believe the third album by The Police that I encounter on this list, and the first one that's actually a little bit interesting. I'd probably give it two stars if not for Every Breath You Take.
The best way to summarize my attitude towards this is album is: it's not you, it's me. Because the album is eclectic, there's a lot of experimenting and it really has something to say. But I just don't like it and that's on me.
It definitely was something different than I am used to. It's as if it was an Indian album but with western sensibilities included.
I liked it more than I thought I would.
Don't know why it's on this list, but this is a perfectly fine album. Nothing more nothing less.
Those four stars are a bit of a stretch for me. I really like this album, but when I mean that, I mean two, or maybe three songs: One Hundred Years, The Figurehead and Pornography. And Disintegration is just so much better in every way, that this one feels feels a little bit inferior.
Another Neil Young album - but this one was a little bit better. I still don't like Neil Young.
This was very fun! The only thing that keeps me from giving this four stars is that I don't think I'll be getting back to this album.
First of all, let me say that this is actually really good. It also feels like a gen X final boss album. You can hear traces of The Stone Roses or Sonic Youth, but you can also hear things that would later inspire My Bloody Valentine and the entire shoegaze genre. It's dark and effortlessly cool. Highly recommended.
Not bad, just a bit repetetive and forgettable.
Everyone knows Led Zeppelin IV. It's a very, very good album, but to be honest it's not really there on the list of my favourite albums.
Excellent album. And I literally know people who became left wing thanks to this album, which is an added bonus.
I never considered Queen something special and this album didn't change my mind. Very mediocre and forgettable.
That was a fun album I definitely need to revisit.
I feel like country music is way overrepresented on this list. But if my next album has to be a country album, let it be something by Willie Nelson - the kindest, gentlest man alive.
I was biased against it when I started but it's good, ok? It's good. But to be honest Snoop Dogg steals the show.
This is my least favourite Nick Drake album, but damn, after listening after all those years, it's way better than I've remembered
It was alright. That first song seemed interesting, but later nothing really caught my attention.
I have no idea why this album has been included on this list.
Not one of my favourites, but still very good.
I didn't hate it.
A really fun album. It's in no ways better than Master of Puppets, but it's a fun romp.
Early Beatles meet Simon & Garfunkel. It was ok.
Funny thing is I turned on this album and the first thing I thought was "that's actually pretty good, it's pretty jazzy and sounds a lot like A Tribe Called Quest".
Yeah, imagine the look on my face when I realized that OF COURSE it sounds a lot like A Tribe Called Quest, as he was the main creative force behind them. So yeah, I enjoyed it very much.
This is an album that shaped entire generations. Dark, moody and haunting, but not without some pure punk rock energy.
Yeah, no.
Noisy and experimental, but unfortunately, not my kind of experimental (although Human Cannonball is extremely catchy!).
For better or worse, I wouldn't be the same person I am today if it wasn't for this album. I still prefer Unknown Pleasures which has more punk energy, but the sound, the themes, the rawness of the emotions make it one of the most important albums of my entire life.
Just a bunch of goofballs having fun with one of the best debut albums there are.
It wasn't bad, but nothing very memorable for me. Just another old school hip-hop album.
Noisy, but not my kind of noisy.
I literally don't know how to rate it. Sometimes you feel that it's a bit lacklustre, but then a certain groove hits and you just melt into the music. Definitely not a "day" album, it's best to listen in the evening after a hot summer's day or (even better), deep into winter when you need that boost to get through short and gloomy days.
Very solid punk album. Good energy, unpretentious and a fun romp overall. It exceeded my expectations.
It's larger than life. It's experimental (but the good kind of experimental). The traditional songs are absolutely flawless.
The only problem I have with this album is that every time I listen to Kate Bush too much someone I know dies.
But this album is so good that I still take my chances.
It was ok. Maybe I'll give it another go sometime in the future.
One of the albums that made me who I am today. Absolutely moving & beautiful. If there was a possibility to give 6 stars to a limited number of albums, this one would be on my list.
A pleasant surprise this one. I was afraid it's going to be a country album (solely based on the artist name), but it's absolutely not! Terrific voice, very good songs. If this kind of music was my thing I'd rate it higher.
Sounds like early Pink Floyd mixed with the Beatles. Very enjoyable! Need to revisit soon.
Pretty much in line with what you expect by seeing the album cover. In no way was it terrible, just not really for me.
Unpretentious, but I've expected more of this album.
I would have rated it higher if it wasn't a double album. There's absolutely wonderful stuff in there, but the weaker material drags it down.
Still a very enjoyable album.
It was a little bit better than 2112, but still not my thing.
Kind of boring and not really emotionally resonating with me. And to be honest I think it's the worst thing one can say about a Morrissey album.
Even though it's not quite my thing, I've found it fun and interesting.
I really wanted to hate it because I'm fed up with these kinds of records, but I didn't.
I didn't enjoy it very much as well though.
First song was actually pretty good. But the rest was pretty underwhelming.
I enjoyed some of the slower and calmer songs on this album, but did not enjoy the high energy ones.
So chill and laid back that it irritated me at the beginning.
However, the longer I've listened, the better it felt, up to a point where it actually felt pretty good - I could easily imagine listening to that on a relaxing, summer day with nothing to do.
The only problem is that all the songs are extremely forgettable.
Three stars from me, but if I factored how forgettable they are, it would have been two.
This album beautifully captures the zeitgeist of late 1990s. The optimism brought by the evolution of technology, the feeling of change, the boldness to be different and whoever you want to be. The songs are both sweet, sexy, melancholic, but they all transform you to a time that's so different from today, that it almost feels unreal.
Probably the best Beck album out of the three I've listened to so far. Might be worth revisiting in a less busy time in my life.
Wow, what a discovery! I thought this was going to be yet another psychodelic rock record but this is actually so much more! Can't remember when was the last time I've put one of these albums on loop after listening to it for the first time.
The title track feels as if you combined Marquee Moon and Mount Eerie (the album, not the band) and added something unique to the mix. It's not only a good song, but also an interesting one!
The other tracks are also at least good.
Again, what a find. This might be a five-star album once I listen to it more.
It's good. But I'm absolutely not the target for this album.
One of the albums that shaped me into the person I am today (for better or for worse). The ultimate sadcore album, full of dark energy, the playlist of my angsty teenage years is still one of my favourite albums of all time.
More interesting than great, but really, really interesting. Something to revisit later on.
I don't like soul, but this was fantastic.
It's a very, very solid three-star album, but it's new wave and I'm biased, so four stars it is.
I didn't know how to rate this album. At first I didn't like it, but then it kind of started being interesting, but then I didn't really want to give it another listen - at least not yet. Two stars for now, but I'll revisit when I'm in the right mood.
Let me preface this with saying that I don't like this kind id music. It's style over substancje and way too much fluff. But even then, this album is a very nice listen. I'd probably rate this a lot higher if I was into this kind of music, but even I have to admit it's good.
I don't like world music, so this was definitely not for me. However it was a little bit interesting at least.
Fun & fresh. Couldn't believe this album is more than 50 years old.
EDIT: Holy shit, can't stop listening to this album. Absolutely deranged. This is 5 stars no doubt.
This isn't another Nevermind, but it doesn't have to be. It's dirty and gritty, but the songs are still great, even though maybe not as suitable to play them on the radio.
Well, that was not Pixies, but it was pretty good. The only problem was, nothing really stood out. Maybe I will revisit this album someday.
Exactly what you expect from a new wave album. Light and fun, but still inspired by that punk rock energy.
I really wanted to hate this album, but I didn't. There's a handful of good songs, but I have no idea what this album is doing on this list.
Groovy.
It's good, but I didn't love it. It might be slightly more interesting than the Beatles' later albums and might be worth revisiting later on.
I can't name even one song from this album, but I've listened to it three or four times in a row, so it seems pretty great.
I still feel it's not really for me, but as this is my third PJ Harvey album I feel like it's starting to grow on me. I liked the raw energy, but it still felt controlled, not transcending.
You can find some great songs and some mediocre songs on this album. But overall, it's unpretentious straight up fun.
Once you understand, that these are drama club dorks, that are really good at playing the instruments, it all starts making sense and let's you enjoy it even more.
Even though this album perfectly captures the zeitgeist of late 90s and has some solid bangers, I can't in good faith give it more than three stars. Most songs are pretty bland, and they follow exactly the same structure. The hit singles are replayable, but the entire album is not. But I totally get why Play is on this list, it's historical significance as sign of times is undeniable.
Nice, slow, relaxing album, with one outstanding song (The Ocean), but overall not very interesting.
Not grunge levels bad, but not good either.
The good? The album is pretty short. The bad? I don't like The Who and I'm seriously wondering if there are any people who are unironic fans of the band. It's not that it's a bad band, but it's just so eh
Not only good, but also interesting. Didn't expect that, what a pleasant surprise.
Short & powerful. Might not be as great as London Calling, but still, what a debut. Fantastic album.
Now this is a perfect example of an album that justifies the existence of this list. It's fun, it's interesting and unique. Quite revolutionary in its day.
All the Beastie Boys sound like they were meant to work together, with their voices complementing and playing off of each other. The sound is rich and layed groundwork for albums by other artists (Endtroducing... & Since I Left You being amongst them).
Highly recommend.
Not something I'll be revisiting, but it was pretty interesting.
Pretty boring. Not the worst thing in the world, bu the best thing about it is its short length.
Think the Beatles, but more interesting and less interesting at the same time.
Now that's what I'm talking about! What a pleasant surprise. I don't really like soul music, but this album is really, really good and felt like a breath of fresh air.
Another pleasant surprise, what a great album!
It's just boring. Apart from the singles there's literally nothing interesting about it. And even the singles don't hit as hard as they did in 2001. Extremely disappointing.
90% funk, 10% soul.
Extremely mediocre.
I've never heard about this album and I think I know why. It's good, but not really very memorable.
It's Elvis, you probably know all these songs already.
I only realized that it's a cover album when Bridge Under Troubled Water started playing. Fantastic album.
How do you say in Armenian "I'd rather stick nails into my eardruma than listen to this album again"?
I've gotten this pick almost back to back with Rumours. Both are very good and will definitely revisit them pretty soon.
Probably the earliest album I could honestly call new wave. Very nice.
I've gotten this pick almost back to back with Tusk. Both are very good and will definitely revisit them pretty soon.
An olld-fashioned but very pleasant listen.
If it was only The Love Below, that's a 5 and it's a no brainer. It's very fun and inventive, and there's just banger after banger on the entire album. Speakerboxxx is way more fun than I remembered, however it still doesn't warrant a 5. So with heavy heart, 4 out of 5 it is.
