Sign 'O' The Times

Prince · 1 likes

1/5

At first I thought: " okay it can be like 2 stars, it is a little bit enjoable."... After sixth same song I was bored and pissed off. So no it is certainly not enjoyable. Not for me.

4/5

I went from "Oh this is really cool, I would listen to this with my friends while hanging out" to "OMG I KNOW THAT ONE" when Alright started playing. Really cool album and I miss summer hangouts :(

Wish You Were Here

Pink Floyd

4/5

Shine on you crazy diamon - I love how they can make guitar speak. Vocals are soft but theatrical. Welcome to the machine - Industial sounds go well with acustic guitar in this song but I don't really like vocals here. Wish you were here - My favourite track on this album. It feels like watching sunset from the porch of cabin, summer evening with your closest friends and/or bitter sweetending. Have a cigar isn't much outstanding for me 'cause of vocals which i don't really like here. Overall really good and iconic album. I liked it even though I wouldn't have listened to it if it hadn't been recommended to me. Itstrumentals were perfect but I'm not a big fan of vocals in all of these songs. But i can feel that Wish you were here will stich with me for a long time.

One Nation Under A Groove

Funkadelic

2/5

5/10 It is definitely a summer album. I wouldn't find this apbum on my own so it's something new for me. It was wery mesy and chaotich but not in the way I enjoy music. But I really liked some of the instruments. If I had listened it in the summer and not christmas i would rate it higher.

Common

3/5

Really good opening track. I don't listen to rap at all but i kinda like this album. So far the rest of the album is too funky and repetitive for me. Not my style really. When I listen to rap I like it little bit more angrier and maybe energetic. Pretty solid album to chill out and even though it's out of my music bubble I sometimes foumd myself vibin' to it.

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

4/5

I love Christmas music that is not overplayed. It has vibe, sets Chistmas atmosphere and it is catchy. My second favourite type of music after victorian carols in this time of the year. Such an iconic Christmas songs i didn't even know are from this album.

Rock 'N Soul

Solomon Burke

4/5

I enjoyed this album though, again, it's not my genre of choice. He has pretty voice and music is soft and relaxing.

Live At Leeds

The Who

5/5

This is the album i can give 5 stars and not be disapointed when I'll look back on it later. I knew The Who as the band which wrote Behind the blue eyes and never listened to them more in depth. But after this album I think I'll start listen to them. This man has beautiful voice and I loved the instruments. I like live albums especially 'cause they are interactive and it feels like they have a soul. I will play that on CD in my car because this is the vibe it's giving.

Freak Out!

The Mothers Of Invention

2/5

This is random and absolutely unserious. I liked first half of the album but the second one was just a mess.

Let It Bleed

The Rolling Stones

5/5

I love The Rolling Stones. This is one of my 10/10 albums.

The Trinity Session

Cowboy Junkies

5/5

Best album i haven't know before this site recomended it to me. Angelic vocals, calm music. Something I will listen to in summer.

At Newport 1960

Muddy Waters

4/5

Another really good album. I like this type of mysin though I don't listen to it often. I like when records and albums are live performances.

Abbey Road

Beatles

2/5

I'm just not a big fan of Beatles.

Stankonia

OutKast

3/5

It would be 2* but there is Sorry Mrs. Jackson, one of my all time favourite songs, on it so...

Arc Of A Diver

Steve Winwood

1/5

Album cover is beautiful. But it was so boring

1977

Ash

4/5

Sometimes it sounded like little bit of Radiohead. I really enjoy this highschool garage rock band type of music.

(Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd)

Lynyrd Skynyrd

4/5

There was freebird. And I really like the bass in some songs.

Arise

Sepultura

4/5

Metal is one of my favourite genres but I never listened to Sepultra much. I love instrumentals on this album but vocals are not really my thing.

Deserter's Songs

Mercury Rev

3/5

Music is amazing but once again vocals...

Little Earthquakes

Tori Amos

3/5

One of those okay albums. It has some stand out songs like China, Leather and Little Earthquakes. And also I like piano in most of the aongs. It smoothly blends in and underline the atmosphere.

Violent Femmes

2/5

This Nation’s Saving Grace

The Fall

3/5

I love post punk but I search for more dark atmosphere and melodies. A lot of song here were repetitive but over all enjoyable album for me.

So Much For The City

The Thrills

4/5

Surprisingly I enjoyed this a lot.

The Yes Album

Yes

3/5

One thing I don't like is when album is released or only possible to find in anibersary deluxe or even worse super, deluxe, something,... edition. I like that about albums I like and I want more of their music (as a big fan of Smashing Pumpkins I know what it is to listen to a 3 hour long album or 6 hour long collection). But when I listen to album forbthe first time I just want that shorter version that will tell me what this album has for me and if I want to listen more. I only listened to first and half of the second disch and it wasn't bad. Nothing breathtaking but solid. Some standout tracks were Starship Trooper: Life Seeker /Disillusion /Würm and A Venture. I think someday I will listen to a whole album but not today.

Youth And Young Manhood

Kings of Leon

1/5

Street Life

The Crusaders

1/5

First of all song Street life is good... until, after 4 minites, you realize that you will be listening to the same thing for another almost ten minutes. Or better to say for another half an hour, because the whole album sounds the same. It's not bad but I am not really into this type of music and its sometimes almost painfully boring for me to do so. I feel like I'm listening to elevator music.

War

4/5

It sounds like what you imagine it would sounds like.

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

2/5

Life's Too Good

The Sugarcubes

3/5

I love Björk's vocals.

Deep Purple In Rock

Deep Purple

3/5

Enjoyed this but I am not a big fan of Deep Purple

Licensed To Ill

Beastie Boys

1/5

The first song already sounded to me like that one rap in Amazing world of Gumball. And then the whole album was like that.

The Bends

Radiohead

5/5

Not my favourite by radiohead but still 10/10 album. Love everything about it. Songs like Street spirit Fade out, Fake plastic trees, Black star andJast are biggest standouts and absolute bangers.

Parachutes

Coldplay

3/5

Sincere

Mj Cole

2/5

I wouldn't listen to this willingly but I was digital painting so it matched the vibe and I felt kinda cool.

Sign 'O' The Times

Prince

1/5

At first I thought: " okay it can be like 2 stars, it is a little bit enjoable."... After sixth same song I was bored and pissed off. So no it is certainly not enjoyable. Not for me.

Grace

Jeff Buckley

4/5

I was thinking it was overrated. But it is not. I love it surprisingly. Never listened to whole album despite its new-gained popularity and it's definitely worth the hype. Lots of iconic songs and melodies.

Raw Power

The Stooges

2/5

Fear Of Music

Talking Heads

2/5

Ctrl

SZA

3/5

Surprisingly enjoyable

Led Zeppelin IV

Led Zeppelin

5/5

This is real 5* album. Even if there wasn't Stairway to Heaven, which is absolute masterpiece and iconic song, love every second of it, it wolud be that perfect. The Battle of Evermore and Going to California are big standouts for me and to open album with Black dog and close it with When the Levee Breaks... It's just perfection.

I Should Coco

Supergrass

4/5

I went from "Oh this is really cool, I would listen to this with my friends while hanging out" to "OMG I KNOW THAT ONE" when Alright started playing. Really cool album and I miss summer hangouts :(

Adele

3/5

I love a lot of the songs on this album but the rest is like, I don't know... It's just filler.

Rust In Peace

Megadeth

4/5

I am not the biggest fan of Dave Mustain's vocals but the instrumentals are that perfect I can't give it less than 4*

Crazysexycool

TLC

2/5

Throughout listening to this album, I heard the words Crazy, Sexi and Cool too many times.

Cosmo's Factory

Creedence Clearwater Revival

3/5

Kenya

Machito

3/5

This was something really, really new

3 + 3

The Isley Brothers

2/5

18 same songs with lyrics that are just repeating title and some other random sentences in same tone and pace with random distorted highpitched guitar wanna-be solos in the end as the song fade away. It was boring but not unlistenable.

Architecture And Morality

Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark

4/5

Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)

The Kinks

4/5

Pretty enjoyable, but it would be much better in the summer.

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

2/5

I knew there will be day when this app recomends this... thing to me. This one album which has song on it that I hate THE MOST. I don't really know why, but that constant repeating of Born in the U.S.A., blah blah blah, I just can not stand it. But let's be objective. The second song wasn't that bad. Yes the cover still iritates me but that is just detail. Overall this album isn't THAT bad as I thought it will be, but I won't listen to it again.

Moss Side Story

Barry Adamson

3/5

That type of backround music I would listen to while reading crime stories or writing journal or whatever... Enjoyable for me but I see why so low rated.

Different Class

Pulp

3/5

It was good. I didn't expected that I'll enjoy it that much though lot of songs sounded very similary

Let's Get It On

Marvin Gaye

4/5

Did not expected to like it that much. I didn't know this album before but it took me one second of the first song to be like "What?! This is that?!" So yes it seems I knew at least one song. Overall solid album, enjoyed it probably will listen to it again. Perfect music for evening with book I guess.
