Never liked Oasis, tried my best to give it a proper go in good faith. True to form, it opens with two of the worst songs I’ve ever heard. After listening to them both, I felt like there was just a little less colour in the world.
I’ll concede, songs 5-7 have their moments and so does Slide Away, but I always feel like I’m trying my best to ignore the vocals so I can enjoy the rest which at times is pretty cool.
They’ve never been for me, not the worst album I’ve ever heard but also didn’t change my mind.
Bit dull
Maybe not too many standout tunes outside of Stairway to Heaven but that’s an all timer and just a really cool sound to the whole album.
Usually don’t mind a bit of jazz but wasn’t in to this at all
Bono’s voice has never been for me. Some cool parts of songs here and there though.
Good album. Bit too many skits and banter songs to really get going for me but still really cool.
Vocals not really for me but some decent music in there
Much more like the sort of jazz I can listen to, enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would
Could have been a 4 if I’d liked the vocals a little bit more but still really enjoyed the album
Good album, felt like I might have been a bit too sober to enjoy it to its full potential. Second last song was a belter.
Bit Bowie, Bit Disney villain, Bit Eurovision ballad. All of these are compliments. Not sure why I liked it so much. I think I know it’s a bit shite but that might be why I liked it? Got better as it went. Songs of Love is a tune.
Good album. Didn’t really do anything super exciting but it’s too solid to give it lower than 3.
Not my thing but can appreciate
It was fine
Cracking album, these guys were just nailing every genre they felt like right from the first album, fair play
Gets two stars because the boy from The Clash is a class guitarist. Wish Johnny Rotten would stfu so I could hear it.
Proper American rock album, big fan
Bit Jazz, bit pop, bit morning TV. Inoffensive but didn’t too much for me.
I mean it’s an absolute banger, and that’s all I’ve got to say
Occasional cool guitar bits saved this from a 1 star. Pretty shite.
I think I expected to get into this a bit more than I did but still solid
Peaceful as fuck
Just fuckin shredding guitar for 35 minutes, no notes
Just really solid, enjoyed it
2 stars feels harsh because it was an alright album but I wasn’t really that into any songs outside of Dreaming of You, so here we are
Never been into punk too much but I sort of get this more than most other stuff in the genre
Not for me overall but definitely had moments, some very cool guitar bits mixed in there
Always takes adjustment listening to the early stuff without Bruce but a cracking album
Solid all the way through, the bigger songs are absolutes tunes (Raising Hell in particular)
Felt like I was overhearing someone watching a PlayStation game in another room. 2 stars, but if I was out my nut it could be either terrifying or beautiful or both.
Had its moments at the start at end, wasn’t that into it overall. But a bit more listenable than other stuff in this kind of genre.
A lovely, lovely voice. Cannae move for ballads.
Big songs are still bangers. Rest is just fine but still a decent listen.
These songs are all the exact same type of boring
Went into this feeling very sceptical with it being a live album, but loved it. Last 4 songs are all absolute bangers.
Really good. Some singer. If it was an option, it would be a high 3.
Is this a joke
A lot of the same, didn’t really grab me at all
It was decent but nothing special about it for me
Nice, easy listening without any massive tunes
Not really my thing, didn’t find it very interesting. Love gets sweeter was decent but listening to it one day after Bob Marley probably hurt it too
Good fun as expected, was never going to blow me away but enjoyed it
Definitely had some good moments, surprise Thom Yorke feature was fun, ‘We Float’ near the end was a bit of a banger.
Decent bit of filler though and I’ve got nae time for ‘Hidden Tracks’ that are just normal songs with 5 minutes of silence first.
Liked it more than I thought I would, good quality easy listening
Surprisingly this was good fun for the most part, thought it fizzled out a bit towards the end but enjoyed overall
Very solid album, no real standout tunes but a cool sound all the way through
Some voice, not something I could listen to all day but enjoyed it. No Woman, No Cry and Talkin’ Blues were highlights.
A high 3 from me, was a very peaceful listen during my hangover, lot of time for that
Was a much simpler time for lyricism like but still a lot of good tunes, can’t complain
I thought about giving this a 4 because MAYBE 1 or 2 songs that are a bit filler-y and you can’t move for the misogyny and that in it. But couldn’t do it. This is a phenomenal album. Groundbreaking and I love this era of rap when it sounds a bit more stripped back. At least 8 absolute bangers on here. What a day.
Whole show sounds like one long ringtone
Weird to say, but I always forget how fun it is to listen to the Beatles. Controversially, I think they’re quite good.
This was a pleasant surprise. 16 quick fire songs, all are at least decent fun and the good ones are really good. Not usually my favourite genre but liked this.
Two big songs are obviously great but She Bop and All Through the Night in the middle of the album are absolute tunes as well. Very good wee pop album, enjoyed.
Good songs were really good, rest was just fine
Kept wanting to like it but weren’t really any standout songs, maybe On The Beach at a push, not for me overall
Big metal fan but this was just fine. A lot of generic songs, wasn’t that into the vocals. Although Scare Crow was a banger.
Love Ice Cube, could listen to him all day
These are some intense penguins. Weirdly, quite liked it.
This album is so good, lot of range for a sabbath album as well. Love sabbath.
Nice surprise, nice and chill wee folk album, can’t complain
Firmly in the category of albums that didn’t wow me at any point but are too solid to be lower than a 3 - decent listening
Always maintained that I could never get into arcade fire at all. Devastated to report that I really enjoyed this
Appreciated the musicianship but was never really into this one, also way too long for what it is
Cracking album, top tier features, Missy Elliott is somehow still underrated
Blues stuff is nice listening, most of the country ish songs are alright as well. Nice peaceful album. Almost got a 2 anyway because it’s got nae business being 1 hour 12 minutes long.
Great album, not something I’d listened to much before but enjoyed it a lot. Chuck D the absolute guvner of rap.
Controversially, I think Kurt Cobain is a pretty talented singer. Loads of tunes, great album
Was better than I expected, pretty nice background music whilst working. But also not much going on, wouldn’t rush to relisten. A slightly generous 3.
