Stopped listening half way through, was pretty rough. super repetitive songs that dont go anywhere

1-Star Albums (11)

Carried by its huge singles, even if some of the non-single tracks lack a bit of punch.

A pretty underwhelming album from Beck. Fun and quirky highlights but in the most part a bland and samey album with not much to comment on.

Just really not for me

So close to a 5!

Below 1

Stopped listening half way through, was pretty rough. super repetitive songs that dont go anywhere

pleasant but unmemorable

Just not music that gives me joy. repetitive and boring

Complete prog nonsense

Interesting historically, and some alright tunes on there, but lacks depth (not surprising in an album revolving around bongos)

Not compelling enough to compete with similar bands of the time (im thinking Talk Talk) in terms of singing and musical structure

I mostly judge live albums on if they add anything to the original material - unfortunately in this case (after a strong start!) the conclusion is no.

Would be a 0, but it will have to be a 1. I just cannot get on board with this type of music - not that i think its bad, I just instantly stop listening

Poor ending to the album, but pretty good overall!

Really shows the difference in X Factor between Oasis and the other bands in the Brit-Pop Genre. This music is fine, its just missing a little extra push to put it up with the best in the genre

very close to 5 stars

Probably the weakest of the acclaimed albums. has quite a few long meandering songs and just not the bite that many of his other works have

Lovely 60s acoustic pop songs

A little too noisy and unstructured for me. but very cool to hear Bjorks early voice and zaniness

Very hard to rate

Terribly boring, mumbling blues.

Just intensely boring blues-adjacent music. Starting to get a sense of another genre I despise...

I really think that this double album is let down by The Love Below - I just dont find the songs that compelling. Clearly doing a Prince thing, and it doesnt work for me (obviously apart from Roses / Hey Ya! of course!) Speakerboxxx is a very solid album with a couple of highlights.

Close to a 10. Just such as consistent cool style throughout the record. Not to mention how influential it is on rap in general

Listened to this previously and I just switched off. Not music for me, hence the 1

Interesting couple of tracks but a little sleepy and long in parts.

7/10

second half really sucked actually

Not sure I can give this higher than a 3. Washes over me, and not in a good way. Blends into the background very easily and doesnt grab me. Might be harsh.
