Very good album. Great songs: Whole lotta love, Heartbrraker, and Ramble on are classics.
Solid album. High energy with at least 3 classic songs.
Great album. One of the best albums from the 90's. Some classics (drive, everybody hurts, man on the moon...) and great "less-known" songs (star me kitten, try not to breathe, nightswimming, find the river).
Elegant, polished, professional, cilean...very good album. Josie, although "less experimental" than other tracks, is probably my favourite track (today)
No doubt, these are good musicians. The sound is really original (I particularly enjoyed side 2" "Sly" and "Vein Melter"). Not my favourite style, but I enjoyed it.
Very good album. It took me several listens but I really enjoyed the contrast.
Masterpiece. Can't understand why it took me so long to listened to this. Glad I did.
Not a hip-hop buff, but worth the listen. I found it pretty repetitive (especially lyrically). I guess this may have been pretty provocative, but I found it kind of boring.
Not a hip-hop fun but I enjoyed this one, especially the singles.
Good listen. Nothing incredible but good album. I particularly enjoyed the last song: We Had It All
Great album. Plenty of classics: Dead Flowers, Brown Sugar, Wild Horses, Can't you hear me knocking, Bitch, Sway... a couple of not so great tracks, but still a top album.
First krautrock experience. Very interesting. I really liked it. It's nice to learn and discover different things.
Another great album by Bowie. The only song I don't love happens to be the Rolling Stones' cover (and it's still pretty good). And some songs are real classics.
Good album. Solid compositions and production. Nothing terribly exciting, but not every album needs to be a revolution. Sit and relax...
Solid album. I was doubting between 3 and 4 stars. But the last two songs (Life's a Gas and Rip off) make this a 4-star album for me. Apart from those, I really enjoyed Cosmic Dancer and Get it on.
Very good album. Great guitar and drumming sound. After a few listens, this is at least 4 stars (may even reach 5 if I keep listening). Some favourites: "Here", "Summer Babe", "Trigger Cut", "In the mouth of a desert", "Zurich is stained", "Loretta's scars", "Jackals...", or "Singers". Plenty of good stuff.
I understand this album must have been pretty disruptive when published in 1980. However, even if I enjoyed it and I think it's a good album, when rating the music itself, I feel like 3 stars are ok.
Very good album. I had never listened to Arcade Fire but I really enjoyed this album. This is definitely between 4 and 5 stars. I love the concept of the album and the way how songs relate to each other. Month of May. The Suburbs, Sprawls (I and II), Half Light...great songs. It is probably a bit too long for my personal taste. With a couple less songs, this may have reached 5 stars.
Direct and varied songs. I really liked it. Of course, the songs Nirvana covered are among the best ones. I also enjoyed the instrumental Aurora Borealis. 4 stars after just one listen.
I'm not a blues expert, but you can easily tell this is a solid blues album. If you hate blues, you're gonna hate it. If you love blues, you're probably gonna love it. If you have any interest for music in general, you should be able to at least enjoy it. I don't see how anyone with a minimun interest can rate this with less than 3 stars.
It reminds me a bit of early Dylan or acoustic Springsteen. Very good storytelling. Good album with a bunch of very good protest songs.
This is pretty good. High energy music. I like it. This is not really and album but a compilation. The songs I enjoyed the most are probably "Untutored youth" and the instrumental one: "The Hives are law, You're crime". In any case, the more I listened to it, the more I like it. And, by the way, this stuff must be great in concert.
Even if I own the original CD, I had not listened to this in many years. This is one of the great things of this project. Very good album. Bowie's influence is clear...and that's always good. Great songs: We are the pigs, heroine, the wild ones, new generation... This may have got 5 stars if two or three songs had been scrapped.
Good album. The tracks I enjoyed the most: "I see you", "What's happening?", and "Eight miles high". This is probably between 3 and 4 stars for me. The guitar sound by Roger McGuinn is really good.
I don't know much about oldies and I do not usually listen to this kind of music. But it is obvious that this is good, and I enjoyed it a lot. No doubt The Beatles listened to all this stuff in their early years.
Ok, let's face it: this guy is an asshole, but he has talent. I found this album very inspired and interesting. I guess it helps that I'm not a native speaker, so I don't understand some of the sexist stuff (I don't really care about other aspects like drugs or cursing). Some tracks I enjoyed: "Black Skinhead", "New Slaves", "Hold my liquor", "Blood on the leaves", or "Bound 2".
I guess this is probably ok for a dance club, but I didn't enjoy it that much. Not my favourite kind of music. Too long and pretty repetitive. "Praise you" is the track I enjoyed the most.
Great album. Interesting how each song has its own identity. From blues rock, to folk, hard rock,... A classic album by one of the most influential bands in rock history.
This is, for better or worse, just fine. Nothing really special, but nice to listen to. So, it's kind of average for me. It may grow if I kept listening, but I don't think I'll find the time.
I'm not a huge Eagles fan, but this album is really good. I had not listened to it for a number of years, but I really enjoyed it. It's definitely in the 4-5 star range.
Had never listened to The Stranglers. Actually enjoyed this one quite a bit. Good songs.
I wanted this to be 5 stars...but it is not. It's more between 3 and 4, but I must award 4 stars because I found two songs to be really great. As for the rest, they are indeed good songs, but I just find they are not very innovative. I guess that's part of the whole concept, but I felt the music lacked personality or uniqueness. In any case, a good album with no bad songs.
Good album. I haven't been able to listen to it with the attention it deserves, but I enjoyed it. I'll comr back.
I know this is a classic. I didn't feel like the first tracks are that special but then it got really better. Very good.
I really need to listen again while paying more attention to the lyrics. The music did not feel really special, though.
