Cherub rock - The guitar is amazing and the drums are also good although a little lackluster
Quiet - Has guitar and is music. One of the albums weaker tracks
Today - OMGGGG ITS TICTAC SONG OMG, But its really good.

Disarm – its cool and i like the guitar

A decent to weak 9
Ignore what Saul said and read this Instead
For its time its genuinely quite good, would never choose to listen it but if i was out at dinner and they had this playing i would be quite content.
I feel like this album tries too hard and because of that ends up being very generally mediocre. Its definitely not bad but isn't anything special either
An Actually good britpop album. It had some really nice guitar, and the vocals were genuinely nice to listen to. Leaps and bounds better than anything oasis ever made
Very strong 3 almost a 4
A really really good album. The first 4 songs are by far the best on the album but unlike a lot of albums this doesn't take away from how good the rest of the album is. I normally really don't like folk/country/music that generally sounds like this however this album was really nice and i genuinely enjoyed listening to it.
A light to decent 8
Generally I think that RHCP’s songs are typically either carried or ruined by the vocals. As for californication I think the vocals are good but definitely nothing amazing however this entire album was lifted up and carried on the backs of flea and chad, with some of the best bass in any album of this era if not ever. And the simple but amazing drumming from chad really tied the album together. Now do I think that the album is perfect, No, however I think giving it 4 stars is a disservice to some of the incredible instrumentals.
A very light 9 out of 10
For me this is by far the best album that the beach boys ever released and for its time this album still holds up well even to today’s pop/pop rock standards. One of the biggest criticisms this album gets is on one specific song “student demonstration time”. However I think the criticism is somewhat misplaced as yes I agree that the actual lyrics are not as good as some of the others and the message seems to not have been portrayed very well, the actual musical aspect of the song I think is the best on the whole album. It has a really true 70s sound and the distortion on the guitar paired with the sirens that play every so often really tie the song together making it in my opinion the best on the whole album. As for the rest of the album it’s also very good I think the opening track is relatively weak compared to the rest but it made up for by the fact that it’s followed by long promised road which is a phenomenal song.
All together it’s a very good album, especially for its time but due to the generally similar sound of a lot of the songs I just can’t give it 5 stars but it’s a strong 4 stars
A medium 8 out of 10
Wow am I surprised. I have always been a Coldplay hater like I genuinely couldn’t stand their music and would refuse to listen to it, so today I very begrudgingly listened to this and wow it was a lot better than I thought it would be. The piano in the background was really nice and gave the album a calming, somber feeling and the infrequent drumming and guitar really added to the atmosphere. Now I have 2 main problems with this album one of them is even though the instrumentals were good, the songs all kinda blended into one like I couldn’t really tell that any of the songs sounded particularly different from one another. And I understand that songs transition into one another but it’s was like one massive transition through the whole album. My other gripe is that no matter how hard I try I just can’t really enjoy the sound of the vocals. They weren’t terrible and definitely better than a lot of albums and artists but I just don’t like them that much.
Overall a solid album and it had a couple really good songs on it like, The Scientist and politik.
Im giving it 3 stars
A medium 5 out of 10
I don't really have loads to say about this one. The vocals were nice although a bit lacking at times. The instrumentals on some of the songs was really good but other than that it felt quite generic.
overall a good album 3 stars
A strong 7 out of 10
Its fine but the Beatles definitely made much better
3 stars
Light 6 out of 10
One of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time. The lyricism on this album is just incredible and the story Nas try’s to tell during the album is very very good. Also the music behind it is very good. However I understand that there will be many people who don’t like this album and I think that it will mostly come from either a lack of focus on vocals or just really liking hip-hop as a genre.
However for me it’s a 5 stars
A light 9 out of 10
I listened to it whilst doing revision so it didn’t have my full attention meaning that I may think slightly worse or better of it when I re-listen to it however for now I thought it was really good. A nice rock album with clearly some blues influence. The guitar was really nice and the singing was good
Overall a 3 stars
A very strong 6 out of 10
I like this quite a lot actually the instrumentals were very very good for the time of the album and the vocals were ok as well. The only thing that stops me giving this a 4 star is the random noises at the end of the songs. Like occasionally it can be ok however it happened to frequently for me
3 stars
A very strong 6 out of 10
It’s like if you took the Beatles and somehow made them worse by having only a quarter of them
Honestly just no words because of how good this album is
5 stars
A Strong 9 out of 10
