It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

Don't Come Home A Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your Mind)

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music

Popular Reviews

I wish I could give this a negative number. I’d rather listen to myself getting eaten by lions.

This is really a 1, but goodness bless these guys for making it.

I liked this a lot more when I was a teenager.

All time great album, still a great listen.

I’d heard the hits from this album before, and they were just as good as I’d remembered. I now see why they are the only ones I knew.

Very nice background music but nothing really grabbed me.

Really rather disliked this. Couple songs got me moving a bit, but overall not my Jamboree.

I hadn’t heard this since I was like 12. Wow it knocked me off my feet. Amazing music to drive around to at night.

It’s fine. I have no idea how this made it, and I’m a huge Neil Young fan. Certainly a lesser effort by him, but it’s fine.

It’s an album lacking in confidence. A lot of nice moments buried under way too much fluff.

Never been a fan of Led Zeppelin. Can’t give it more than a 2, because it’s obviously not horrible but I don’t care for it.

Morrissey is a ghoul but his music also touches my soul like no one else.

Drags a bit in the middle, but really good overall.

Grew up on this one. Some of their highest highs, but the section between There, There and Wolf at the Door kinda drags more than I remembered.

I understand their importance as producers, but I couldn’t finish this.

Radiohead’s greatest musical achievement was killing BritPop.

It’s fine, just pretty blah outside of Changes.

Definition of Meh. No idea why this is here over other far more prominent 90s artists.

Why?

Too much of it has aged badly to go 5, but the best stuff here is some of the best music ever created.

I respect the hell out of this album. I’m glad it exists. It caused me physical pain to listen to it though and I couldn’t recommend it to anyone.

One of my all time favorite albums. Hits every emotion perfectly. Sad, funny, angry, the best.

Brand new to me. I got this, saw the nightmare fuel cover and had LOW expectations. Instead I got surf music that went through a lawnmower. Incredible stuff.

Blah

Butt

It has the HUMPTY DANCE, what’d you think it would get?

I want to give this a 1 for being a torturous experience, but a 5 for having the balls to be it. I flipped a coin. 1 was Heads. Sorry.

This isn’t even fun bad. It made me sad with how bad it was.

Inoffensively bad.

Pure torture.

It’s Electric Ladyland, what did you think it would get?

He swung for the fences. He corkscrewed down to the ground and landed on his bottom. Respect for the effort.

I don’t like you, but I respect you.

Absolutely breathtaking. I’d never heard of this before. Exactly what you dream of for this project.

Dude, it’s Nevermind.

I appreciate the gusto, but I’d rather listen to a fire alarm.

Awful

Man Blur is bad. Song 2 is worth a point though.

One of the best albums ever made. I’m sorry to all who don’t like Elvis Costello though. Having 9,000 albums on here is a bit much even for me.

I wish I could give this a negative number. I’d rather listen to myself getting eaten by lions.

Perfectly competent butt rock.

Not a fan. Not horrible though.

I really respect that this exists. A bit hard to swallow at times but overall I enjoyed it.

I feel assaulted. Again.

Probably the worst thing I’ve ever heard.

People who don’t like KISS are people you shouldn’t trust.

Got me through high school, still incredible 20 years later. Hallowed Ground is better though.

This is really a 1, but goodness bless these guys for making it.

Oh hey, it’s still one of the greatest albums ever made.

How did THIS make it? I love LCD Soundsystem’s earlier albums but this one is booty.

Wow that’s bad.

Little too much filler. But like…the good stuff is incredible.

Not for me.

Gosh darn this was boring. Didn’t even have the one good song they made

I don’t trust people that hate Slayer.

I love Tom Waits. I really don’t like this album.

A light that shone as bright as a birthday candle in a rainstorm.

2. 1 star for the first song. 1 more for every song after it that sounded exactly the freaking same.

Butt rock
