Likes: Running up that hill, the big sky, jig of life, Hello earth
Dislikes: waking the witch
Took 2 listens to get into it (didn’t realize it was a concept album lol). Instrumentals are Immersive and unique but feel like there’s some lulls on the second side
Likes: hanging on the telephone, 11:59, heart of glass
Fun and energetic throughout
It’s consistent throughout and works as something to have in the background, but not a lot sticks out to me.
Likes: bigmouth strikes again
Enjoyable listen with nice harmonies and instrumentals.
Likes: Judy blue eyes, pre-road downs, wooden ships, long time gone
I’m a sucker for some good keys but doesn’t have quite as much appeal as Born to Run has.
Likes: badlands, something in the night, racing in the street, promised land
Funky!
Likes: little child runnin wild, pusherman, Freddie’s dead, no thing on me, superfly
First artist on this list so far who I had no prior knowledge about, so went in blind. A unique sound at first, but as the album goes, everything starts to sound the same and blend.
Likes: Sidewalk serfer girl, juxtapozed with u
While the album’s middle parts don’t have as much pull as the incredible start and finish, it’s not enough to bring down the overall quality of this album.
Likes: Baba O’Riley, The Song is Over, Going Mobile, Behind Blue Eyes, Won’t Get Fooled Again
A little too twangy for me.
Likes: Return of the Grievous Angel, In My Hour of Darkness
Really cool blend of jazz and rock, but some songs feel that they overstay their welcome.
Likes: Peaches En Regalia, Son of Mr. Green Genes, It Must Be A Camel
Fun and enjoyable listen throughout, but ultimately something I probably wouldn’t give a re-listen to
Likes: Title Music, Countess’ Caper, Baby Let’s Dance Together
My favorite Beatles album (as of now).
Likes: You Won’t See Me, Nowhere Man, Michelle, In My Life, Wait
Elements of Zopf bring this down for me but otherwise a really peaceful and fun listen.
Likes: Penguin Cafe Single, The Sound of Someone You Love Who’s Going Away and It Doesn’t Matter
I don’t hate it, it’s just not my genre.
Likes: One More Hour, Little Babies
Even though this album loses steam pretty quickly, I would have preferred this one added to my ITunes without my consent back in the day.
Likes: Where the Streets Have No Name, I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For, With or Without You
I feel like I got whiplash as the songs would go from really unique, impressive, and fun to what am I listening to?
Likes: tubular bells
Good instrumentals but not a fan of the sound of the vocals.
Likes: Wardance, Change
Enjoyable jazzy listen.
Likes: Glad, Empty Pages, Stranger to Himself
Good jams but gets a little old/boring after a while.
Likes: Stormy Morning, You Don’t Love Me
Might be the nostalgia for me here.
Likes: Nowhere fast, Stellar, Drive
Starts off strong and then just gets really boring and monotonous
Likes: Big Sur, Don’t Steal Our Sun
Could’ve sworn this was about Compton, Rhode Island.
Likes: Straight Outta Compton, Fuck Tha Police, Gangsta Gangsta, It Aint Rough, Parental Discretion Iz Advised, Express Yourself, Quiet on tha Set
Grew on me after some re-listens, but it mostly all just blends together and doesn’t stand out to me.
Likes: Revival, Coronado, He Would Have Laughed
Thought it was actually a pretty relaxing listen. It does all blend together but it works for me.
Likes: These Early Days, Goodbye Sunday, Blue Moon Rose,
Good flow, good instrumentals, good lyrics, good rap.
Likes: Selfish, 101FM, Pressure, Sherbet Sunset, Flowers
While I’m familiar with Black Sabbath and have liked the few songs I’ve heard before, this was my first time diving into a full album. Was genuinely surprised at how much I liked this given I usually am not a heavy metal fan. The guitar, drums, and even Ozzy’s voice all sound really good here.
Likes: Wheels of Confusion/The Straightener, Changes, Snowblind, Cornucopia, Under The Sun/Every Day Comes and Goes
I can eat seventeen saltines 💁♀️
Likes: Missing Pieces, Love Interruption, Hypocritical Kiss
Maybe this was groundbreaking back in the early 2000’s, but idk it just seems so middle of the road to me.
Likes: The Scientist, Clocks,
This was the first one I’ve gotten where it felt like a slog to get through. 2+ hours of song after song with a nasally/whiny voice is too much. Only a few saving graces in this.
Likes: Bullet with Butterfly Wings, Galapagos, 1979
Enjoyable
Likes: Shot by Both Sides, Burst
Vocally, they’re not that good. Sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn’t.
Likes: Dirty Boots, Kool Thing, Cinderella’s Big Score
I equate this album to what it would feel like if I liked The Smiths.
Likes: Darklands, Happy When It Rains, April Skies, On The Wall
As someone who is a big rap fan I was excited to do a full dive into this. It was cool to see how future artists would sample this. The beats, instrumentals, and whole vibe of this album is very fun, but man their rapping style is mainly just yelling which can get old fast.
Likes: The New Style, Fight For Your Right, No Sleep Till Brooklyn, Brass Monkey
I don’t hate it but it’s kinda bland.
Likes: One More Name, Buenos Noches from a Lonely Room
Don’t let the Temu Tom Brady album cover fool you, this is a really fun listen.
Likes: Uncontrollable Urge, Satisfaction, Gut Feeling, Come Back Jonee
I didn’t want to like this at first, but after a few repeats, it’s quite peaceful and enjoyable.
Likes: Ballad of Big Nothing, Between The Bars, Rose Parade, Angeles, Say Yes
