Station To Station
David Bowie*I can appreciate the music of this but I'm just not a huge Bowie fan. This is fine but nothing overly incredible to me.
*I can appreciate the music of this but I'm just not a huge Bowie fan. This is fine but nothing overly incredible to me.
*Great mix of jazz, rock, and other influences *The guitar work is top notch
*Not my favorite type of music but I can appreciate its musicianship *Outlaw Blues and Tambourine Man are the best tracks *Don't love the harmonica but like the faster moving blues tracks
*Paint it Black is awesome *Goin home is verrrrry long *Decent rock and roll but didn't hook me very much
*Liked Caravan and Moondance *Some good backup vocals, instruments in backup band *Pleasantly surprised by this album
*Appreciate the musicianship, but it felt that it sounded the same by the end. *Sounds like a James Bond soundtrack
*Solid 90s rock album, especially for its time *Tempos were a little bit slow for my taste, but its a great group of songs
*The jazz stuff was cool but the overall album was a little too all over the place. Very atmospheric but not consistent enough with a theme for me to give it more than a 3.
*Everyday people is a banger *Lots of good energy and funk sound but some got repetitive over the album *Loved the band backing the vocals
*Jeremy is great but not much else held my attention.
*Not my preferred type of music and nothing hooked me as interesting or noteworthy.
*Some big hits...lots I remember as sports talk radio/podcast bumper music. *Unique sound, especially for its time, but the mid-tempo stuff feels sluggish at times which can make it get boring.
Atmospheric but not much more than that. Some cool moments with interesting beat patterns, but that's where it ends.
*Love the low quality production- very proto-punk *Their original stuff is good- I'd give it a 5 if there wasn't so many covers *I would have totally been into this if I was a teenager at the time
*Solid 70s rock album with some good hits. *Really liked the piano/keyboards.
*decent to listen to but nothing incredible *interesting concept
The instrumentation was good but I don’t have much connection with German music.
*Loved the guitar but didn't love a lot of the vocals. *Can appreciate the musicianship but not quite enough for a 5.
*Fuzzy guitars, cool indie vibe. *Don't love the sing-talking but the guitar tone and faster tempo tracks are solid. *I think I will like this more each time I listen to it.
*Recognizable voice and unique sound for its time. *too many slow to mid tempo songs, but I liked the songs that moved
*would give this a 4.5 if I could *liked the sound and feel of this record
Cool album that is very funky. Love the keyboards and funky guitar especially.
Cool collection of songs but it loses a star for being mostly covers.
Cool concept and interesting layering of the sample with the guitars. Wish I could give it a 3.5.
*Cool use of the Moog synth and the lyrics are compelling. I just don't find too many of the songs catchy enough to want to listen to more times.
*The band sounds great *it has some great songs but I can’t get fully into it
*Awesome guitars and great live energy. *Ace of Spades is an all time great song *Awesome blend of metal and punk!
*Fun rock music *Liked the songs with saxophone *Vocals are a little strange sounding
*Ephemeral *Some songs were just drawn out too long *cool effects with new wave feel
*This album is some of the craziest stuff I've ever heard, but it intrigues me to listen more times to understand it better.
*Awesome hip hop beats with poignant lyrics *Bring the Noise is an all time song *Some of the beats/tracks loop a little long which can get repetitive, but overall, awesome album!
Solid soul album but some of the lost love stuff is too much. The keyboard/saxophone moments are great.
*Like the use of jazz organ and it has some moments with some funky riffs *Just too slow/mid tempo for me to truly enjoy all the way through
*Interesting concept and the band with the bongos sounded tight
*Young's voice on the first few tracks is grating but it gets better across the album. The harmony vocals are a high point of the album. *Southern Man is a great track *This is good musicianship but doesn't excite me enough to give more than a 3.
*Great sounding band but got a little similar sounding over the course of the whole album. *I didn't realize how much Dropkick Murphys borrowed from these guys a decade earlier. *Fairytale of NY continues to be such an interesting song.
*Cool guitar tone and intriguing lyrics *Great example of punk from this era
*Wish I could give this a 3.5 *She has a great voice but I wish more tracks stayed a little faster with the temp and beat behind it...the first track is great and I was hoping for more like that *Probably would appreciate this more after multiple listens
*Atmospheric and Ephemeral *Good background music but not much more than that
*I liked this more than I thought I would *Some songs were too mid-slow tempo but the hits were great
*I respect that this was iconic at the time it came out and that its the only Joy Division sound with Curtis' vocals- but I just find him brooding without a true feeling of moody or mellow vibes. *This is not bad to listen to, it just doesn't make me feel as amazing as I feel it should based on the popularity of the album and its cover artwork. My punk preference is 80's and 90's punk, and not much post-vibes. *Glad I can say I've actually listened to this to maintain my "just ok" thoughts about it.
*Good soulful sound to her voice *Definitely sounds like a more contemporary Blue Note album *Too many slower/mid tempo songs to make a full 5, but a great album
Great album- Adele's voice is incredible and Hello is awesome. Not quite as solid of an album as 21
Fun mix of jazz and rock
*Interesting take on the covers with the sitar *No question about great musicality, just don't know how much I would re-listen to this, but it was cool to be exposed to
*Cool lo-fi beats in several songs *Unique approach with the sampling, but a cool sound
*This is a great album. Joplin's voice is iconic, but can be a little grating at times.
*The album got better as it went along- thought the back half had some great tracks. *A lot of songs seemed to have a pretty slow temp that almost dragged *The orchestra was a cool feature.
*A heavy emotional album that is beautiful at times, but drags a bit as well *This grew on me as I listened...didn't like it at first, but thought it was ok by the end.
*I can appreciate the music of this but I'm just not a huge Bowie fan. This is fine but nothing overly incredible to me.
*Great mix of jazz, rock, and other influences *The guitar work is top notch
*Emotionally heavy- definitely need to be in the right mood for it *Don't love his voice and several songs dragged at times- but there were some nice moments
*Strong lyrics and an intense listen *Good punk/alternative sounds at times but pretty abrasive *Would need several listens to get into
*I get the musical quality of this, but I'm not an overly big Dylan fan...don't love the voice and the lyrics don't do enough to get me super excited to listen to his stuff.
*I am certainly not the intended audience for this album but the crass lyrics and in your face vocals don't do much for me. *The guitar tone is so 90s, it felt like I was sitting in Central Perk *The album had some good moments but reallllllly dragged by the end.
