As far as pop goes, this is repetitive crap. There's nothing wrong with pop, or repetitive edm! But this is just a bore.
If never heard this group before. It's good! That dude's voice is a bit of a mismatch with the style? Maybe? I don't know. But I liked this.
This is better than most of the new wave on the actual list. But it's just so hollow sounding. It's just too crisp. The vocals are too far forward in the mix. It's not not bad but there is no real difference in time between the tones song to song.
Good. Not great. I need more variation. But I generally think this has some tracks I'll listen to more.
I always thought Paramore was just okay. I looked their previous record Riot! More than this one though this one does have the stone in it from Twilight, which despite being a shit movie, had a weirdly banging soundtrack.
Boring. Forgettable. Just generally not good.
Suuuuper unexpectedly good. A little dated, this sounds very of it's era but this record is really good.
I never gave this band my attention when they first hit. I didn't even know the name of the album or this cover until today. But holy hell there are some real bangers on this record. And I knew it's hits really well. This must have been one of the last radio toppers before I stopped consuming music that way. Super happy I came across this thing.
I get why this is culturally relevant. But this is not a good album.
Every song here sounds the same. And that sound is boredom.
Good. But VERY repetitive. Most of the songs sound very similar.
The quality of recording on this is shocking. The instruments pop out of the speakers, perfectly separated and clear as day. 10/10 for recording, mixing, and mastering. Sadly that is where my compliments end. The songwriting is fine I suppose for this genre. But these songs are just not good. Almost like they are trying to be weird, but afraid to commit. It's just boring and bad from the songwriting perspective. (For me)
I love all the bleeps and bloops in this. But none of these songs go anywhere.
This was rougher than I'd hoped. When it hits, it hits. But holy hell. I NEEDED a little more melody. Just a LITTLE bit.
This record is just too long. It's the only problem with it really.
This veered to far into ska for me. Which is one of few music genres I can't stand. This was fine though.
I like King Gizzard in small doses. This album is good.
Music for people who think they are into music. This is shitty soft rock trying to pretend it's prog. I'm not falling for it. And in what fucking world is it okay for this to be an hour and forty minutes.
This would have benefitted from a whole band. It's to monotonous with just the guitar and voice
Old School hip hop made just a little too late? Yes please!
This is a let down. It's bloated with no definition. The music is boring and the story is so Boomer it's embarrassing. This shouldn't exist.
Punk sounded the way it did because it was the best they could sound at the time. In 2008, anyone could sound better than this. So this is intentional. I like lo-fi. And I love shoegazy alternative. But this isn't lo-fi, it's being annoying on purpose. I made it through all 30 minutes. It's possible there may be something of value here, but I can't hear it. But I suspect the distortion is hiding a lack of songwriting skill.
My suspicions were confirmed at the end of "end of all things" when they drop the distortion for a bit. The songs themselves aren't good. The distortion is converting up poor songs.
I dug this but wanted more up tempo tracks. The audio quality of this recording is really high as well.
I wanted to like this soooo hard. But it just didn't flow. I like the tones and the attitude. But it just feel short for me.
I was at a National concert like 15 years ago and Owen was the opener. He played "E is for Estranged" at that show which I maintain is one of the best songs ever written. I like a lot of Owen Pallett. IMHO, he is on the good side of indie. The side that isn't tired, all sounding the same. This record is pretty good. Owen is great
This was really fun. Is never heard of them before. And yeah, it does sound like early Genesis. But that's okay. This want derivative. It felt fresh.
Lyrics were great. But the arrangements needed more IMHO. I need more than just some chords on a guitar.
Is it word that Screeching Weasel want in the book? They aren't my favorite, but they are culturally relevant. They should be in there
Never heard of this group before. The first 30 seconds had me worried it was going to be intentionally annoying. Then it got good. Hella good. It's very early 2000s but holy hell. This record is great!
One of the most forgettable albums by one of the most forgettable bands. It's not bad. But I think I forgot about it while it was still on.
Thank god that is over. Woof.
An album of it's time to be sure. But I looked it then. My wife loves it so it gets a lot of plays in our house. In the end, it's rather good for me, though a little too produced.
Eeeeh. I don't know about this.
I don't prefer this. At least it was short. It's kind of a higher quality version of the alarm on my phone. A little more moody.
Lyrics are a 10/10 here by the music is so boring!
This was fine. But I am not too much into the scratching aspect of hip hop. Especially early hip hop where there are only like 5 different audio tricks to do. I think, just for me, the amount of scratching time really hurt this one.
I never could understand why bands used Roland pianos in the studio if they were using the standard piano sound. It sounded like shit then. It sounds like shit now. Using a real piano in the studio is an absolute no brainer. I just don't get it.
Every idea in this album could have been covered in about 15 minutes. This may be the most repetitive album I have ever heard.
Culturally very significant. But very boring IMHO. It was short though. So there's that
Imagine being the guitar player in Primus. Poor guy could never get laid. Primus Sucks.
This record is a reflection of my soul.
I do think that theater kids should get a chance to make some music. But I think Meatloaf and the Rocky Horror Picture Show did this same thing better.
In what world would anyone want to listen to this for an hour and forty three minutes? I don't care if your husband was the savior of human kind. This is dog shit. I made it thorough EVERY album in the book... But this one tested me. I really do try not to judge other peoples taste in music. But I am having a really hard time not doing so in this case. I did make it through all the moaning and ape noises. Fuck this album.
This record wants to be so many things and all it can manage is to sound like parts of other bands. I hear TV On The Radio, early Arcade Fire, M83, Explosions in the Sky and others. It's not a bad record. But it lacks identity
This 100% is a record that should have been on the list. While we were all consumed by self loathing grunge, this masterpiece had something different and amazing to say the least.
I wouldn't have noticed the record at the time had it not been for a very attractive girl in my American History class who like the band. I became a fan in order to curry favor with her. She was not interested but I fell in love with Blue, and later Pinkerton anyway.
This is a classic
I like the idea of Tame Impala more than the music itself. I don't know if that makes sense. But it's so ehow true none the less. This particular record is half 10/10 bangers and half sleepy meh tracks. But those bangers. Holy hell do they work their way into my brain.
Super awesome concept but we did not need 45 minutes of it. This is cool for about 10 or so before the looping vinyl pops become somewhat overwhelming.
Fun and weird. But not exactly for me
I would say this is in in the top half of pop records from the last decade. But it's still just pop. Of all the pop stars, Roan is one I can put up with more than many others. When this record came out, my son was 16 and we heard it a lot in the car.
I'd put this on the less annoying side of fine. Which I would say is actually a huge compliment for it.
Their second worst album. And it's still easily a 5. All bangers.
This one's mine. I first heard about this record on NPR of all places and at the time I was really too broke to be buying CDs. But streaming wasn't a thing yet. But once I heard it, I was transfixed by it. Something about the miss and sparseness of it just captured me.
I'm a metalhead mostly but this record just captured my attention in a huge way. To this day I listen to this every few months and I think this is basically a perfect record.
I never got the hype around Lady Gaga. It's catchy but there is no meat. It's like eating candy for dinner. But I suppose pop has never been a filling meal in that sense. I just struggle to get why people like this.
These guys popped right when BitTorrent became a thing and I pirated the shit out of it. I somehow forgot about them though. And this is a wild blast from the past. I really liked this. And am reading them to my rotation. I LOVE that it's a glitchy Industrial side of techno. Perfect for me when I'm not wanting lyrics.
Music designed for walmarts and home depot parking lots.
It's like they saw a corporate promotional video and wanted to update the soundtrack to it.
It's like someone thought Coldplay had too much personality and wanted to tone it down a little.
It's like going to a foreign country and eating at McDonalds.
This was the most wild user submission so far. I don't know. It's way out there. I don't hate it. But I didn't know if I'll ever listen to it again.
I respect this for what it is but I didn't really enjoy it. I don't think I'm smart enough for it.
Fucking shit this is good. I ended up listening to all three of their records twice today.
I hated this in a way I can't begin to cover here. The songs, the instrumentation, the lyrics, the length, the style. I fucking hated everything about this and it made me irrationally angry. I do appreciate finding records that elicit this response from me. Finding records I hate this much is really kind of rare. This actually put me in a bad mood today.
I liked this okay but the record was kind of forgettable.
Hmm. I was kind of bored by this one
This was weird in a way I can totally get down with. And I am sure the fact that it's in Spanish is 90% of the allure for me as jangle pop is not my thing.
I like Killswitch a lot. As an industrial fan, I feel like this list just didn't cover much metal at all. So I'm inclined to pump this an extra star. I think Heartache is better. But this is a good representative of the genre.
This is the version of him I like best. Other than this is America, I struggle with his later work. Peak for me!
I've always thought that Wilco SHOULD have been dropped from their label. They weren't good until YHF, and that record is amazing but from WBs perspective, too weird compared to their other work.
But then after YHF, they put out ANOTHER masterpiece with. A Ghost is Born. And then... Nothing else is really good. That Kicking Television is good but it's just a great live show with their best tracks.
My point is, Wilco is not good outside of those two records. Tweedy has had a lot of troubles in his life and I really love the fact he had two AMAZING records. But this. This isn't one of them.
"thou shall not make generic, repetitive music"
Better than the album on the list. This is really good.
It's not that it's a bad album. It's just entirely too long. There is just no reason for it to be this long.
Sad Christmas music is still Christmas music. But it's not as bad as some others.
Don't I ow why but I had assumed there would be hits on this. Or at least something I had heard. This was just sort of meh. Just sitting there not doing anything.
Great record from a band I don't think gets a lot of live from us music snobs.
I have heard about this band a lot over the years but never gave them a listen. Not sure what all the hype is about. Nothing happens on this record. It just sort of limps along like a wet noodle and then whimpers into the end.
Never had of this. It was good.
It's our old friends "generic" and "repetitive". And the pair ALWAYS comes with their hanger on, "stupid long run time". I know someone picked this and I appreciate that everyone likes something different. But this is truly shit.
I liked the music. The story is convoluted and a total waste of time. But the music was good.
This was okay. Very much so etching for the background. Rather forgettable.
This was fun. It's wildly dated at this point. But I enjoyed it.
Kind of like that old style of country. It's okay I guess? Too long though. Way too long.
The up tempo numbers on this were great. Loved them all. The slower, quieter songs though we're uninspired to me. Super glad this was added.
Good lyrical content here. I'm not a fan of this style of music. It's just not enough to keep me engaged. I'm glad I heard it though.
Fucking fire start to finish. \m/
I've uh, seen this album cover before. But never listened to the record. This is okay. I like weird, but this goes pretty hard into weird.
I may be the only person who thinks their first record (the self titled one) was better than the second. Toxicity is a certified banger for sure, but have you tried listening to the first one on shitty cans at full blast while walking to work at Blockbuster video in 1998? Chefs fucking kiss.
This album is a nice bit of soft indie rock for a rainy morning. Super easy listening. I am not sure anyone would have ever heard it really had it not been for the OC followed by SNL. Good use of Vocoder I guess to soup up an otherwise boring track. This records is just fine I suppose? Nothing really to see here.
The opening track here is VERY Talking Heads. And I think it's good. But the rest of this is boring. It tries to be weird but is not engaging.
The most meh I've felt in a while about once if these not one feeling either eat really.
This record actively made me angry. I'm not sure what it is about the music or the singing. But I was really upset by this. And not in like, the good way a piece of art might evoke an emotion in a person. I was/am somehow mad that this even exists. It means nothing. It is nothing. How would any of this be performed live? These aren't real songs.
I like the Breeders okay. But other than Cannonball, this record lacks anything that really grabs my attention. Cannonball itself though slaps and single handedly raises this entire record. It's just odd to me how deserted the rest of it is.
This was rather biting to me.
The music here is okay? I've heard this disco inspired electronics before so nothing new to see. The vocals ago awful. The breathy attempt to be mysterious just doesn't work for me. No me gusta.
Not a lot for me to say here. This just didn't really click for me.
Stevens may be the most overrated musician of the last 30 years. His breathy delivery smears every track with a "I'm 13 and this is deep" vibes and every song is the same. He defo peaked with the song Chicago which, while great, is very repetitive lyric wise. But that track is on Illinois. Here, one his SEVENTH album, he just muddles along making the same song over and over. Its the feeling of the snooze alarm going off on a Monday over and over.
Yeah. I can get down with this.
This album was able to rocket into my top five least favorite things. Not just the user submitted list. Not just the 1001 records list. But top five worst things on ANY list. Of all time. This is fucking terrible in every way.
Modern hard rock. Wow. Kind of weird to hear. It's fine. Nothing earth shaking. But welcome.
I listened to this yesterday morning and literally didn't remember it. I had to go remind myself what it was.
Good, not great. I think it's too polished. And a lot to long.
There is literally nothing new or interesting here. It's all just, so bland.
French Michal McDonald? I kept reading this was some sort of rock. There was no rock here
Sometimes a record comes along at the right time and you hear it differently than you may have. I am primarily a metal guy but I love a lot of other stuff. So foreign synthy hip-hop isn't something I would normally catch by chance. Which is why I joined this project actually.
Anyhoo. It's January 2026 in America. Between work, family, and appearing at protests in [city redacted], I am struggling to make time to really listen to records. Like really listen. So overnight into Sunday of this week [City Redacted] gets like 8 inches of snow. I am required at work Monday and there is more coming. So I will need to shovel all day instead of protesting Ice. Which makes me feel like a cuck, but we can look into that later.
Anyhoo. I got my hoodie, gloves, and my Sennheiser cans. (Normally this would be where I go off on some random rant about Sennheiser going to shit after a sale to a company that doesn't care about audio. But Ice just murdered a dude in cold blood and my energy is low.)
Anyhoo. So I am shoveling and hating life. Hoping for that "Dead shovel" heart attack that will pay out insurance that will put my kids through college and this record is on... At first, it is a little derivative. But like in the first two minutes, it grabs me. And WILL NOT LET GO. I have no clue what this Belgian dude is talking about. I'm going to assume it's all anti fascist shit for the duration as that anger keeps me going.
Anyhoo. It's fucking big. It's fucking brash. And now I follow this dude on Spotify and am looking at vinyl from my local record store in [city redacted] of this record. They don't have it. Discogs? No US Release. It's all French so this will cost me a fortune. 215 Euros! That's like 255 freedom units! Holy shit. I guess Spotify will have to do.
Once of the worst live shows I've ever seen. Album good, band bad.
Such weird timing. I found out about this band about three months ago and have been listening constantly ever since. I'm more into metal thank hardcore but damn this band has a hold on me. Love this record.
There was a time before "indie" music where soft rock bands made music for suburban mother's to listen to. This is one of those bands. Nothing wrong with that really. But that one single was just weird enough to break through.
Listening to this today I realized that my family would listen to this this CD through mmmm mmmm mmmm and then just turn it off. I knew those first three tracks rather well but I don't think I ever heard anything past them. I don't think I was missing anything.
This does feel an awful like a few dudes dicking around in a garage for 54 minutes. This doesn't really feel like jazz to me.
This was okay. It was fine.
The lyrics in this are awful. Very, "I'm 16 and this is deep". Also, a backward instrument track? Did they think that was original or something? I don't get this
I didn't know how to rate this. It's too long. And the fact that it can't hold an idea still for more than 30 seconds is interesting but more distracting than anything else.
This had me tapping my foot in the first half. Not a huge fan of the vocals but the beats were killer. The second half... I don't know. It felt like the record ran out of steam.
This is just a bloated mess. I can't believe the scores this is getting. It would be a 3 if it were half an hour. But for fucks sake I've never heard anything that needed an editor more.
Two days on a row with user submitted albums that were 90 minutes. Has no one heard of an editor? This is like someone gave Ross Geller stringed instruments. There's no direction. The mood is cool. But that's it. I didn't need an hour and half of that.
There is nothing of value on this record. Crappy uninspired covers and generic repetitive generic pop with no substance or soul.
This is the the perfect example of the failings of the music business.
Waaaay ahead of it's time on this one.
This is music for people who think they like music but really just want non challenging soft nothings in the background. This is elevator music.
I'm sure this is a great example of modern soul of whatever. I was bored.
The description and reviews for this had me excited to hear something new and possibly right up my alley. I love a good anti establishment album. But this just did nothing. The lyrics and vocals were fine. But there were no songs here. It just kind of meandered around for close to an hour.
This felt like a warm blanket. But that's just my age taking. This album is a little hollow, but still good. It is very of is era which isn't an insult.
Boy do I remember these hits woah.
I liked this. It's a little simple but for it's time, it's impressive
If this was a reasonable length, it would be an easy 5. The first maybe 45 minutes are gold. But this is just so bloated... Dear god. I had this on vinyl at one point and when I saw it this morning, I thought to myself, "why did I sell this again?" Then over an hour later... "Oh yeah, I remember now..."
A fun once for sure. Though I'm not sure id come back to it.
I can't separate this record from it's time. It's a great record. But I may be completely biased.
Some decent soft rock here.
Even being an 80s kid couldn't raise my nostalgia enough to dig this.
This record starts ROUGH. But gets really good starting with the second track. I wonder if they did that on purpose.
Oh no. I hadn't followed up with Silverchair in so e time. I knew their singer has some mental health issues so I'd be happy to cut them some slack. But this is the music equivalent of mom jeans. Yikes
Over an hour on some #metoo dickbag? No thanks. This album sucked before the guy was a problem.
Live albums, with very few exceptions, are for those who are already fans. This is not an exception.
I like the idea of this band more than the hand itself. I'm primarily a metalhead so this SHOULD be right up my alley. But I just get tired when I listen to them.
This is just too much Daft Punk. I am happy to listen to these fellas in short doses but an hour and a half of repetitive loops is just more than I want to hear at once. As always, live albums should not be anywhere near this list. They are only for fans of the band 99% of the time.
This was fine but the beats weren't really all that exciting.
There is a lot of wasted time on this. It's movements, when actually moving, are interesting and match my mood. But there is too much wasted time between them. I think this would be a 5 for me had it been edited.
This was the best album of 2025 hands down. And while I think it may be too soon to add it to a list like this, this is an easy 5 stars. Great pick.
This is a kind of bad that I can't begin to deal with. I was an adult when this came out and not Christian or an FM radio listener. So I wasn't exposed to this at the time. I can say that had I been exposed to this I would have hated it. Now, 20ish years later, it's just bad.
There is nothing new or novel here. Just generic butt rock.
Always a blast to revisit this band. They aren't a daily driver for me, but I love them in small doses.
I don't get it. But I respect it.
I never go to this record for some reason but about once a year it comes to me. And it's great every time.
I could have used a little more actual music here. The tracks were a little hollow for me.
I like the idea of this more than the execution. I can't stand the singers singing
I've meant to listen to this for years now. This band may be more famous for what happened after their breakup than for their music. This was okay. Which is a real bummer.
I'm sorry but this is just awful. Sanitized to the point my gran would enjoy it, this record says and does NOTHING. The fake pristine synths, no soul... This is like AI music before AI.
This was a little too much Louis. A little of this goes a long way
This was fun. Not a daily driver for me but I liked it.
Fine I guess. It's well put together and sounds great. It's just not for me.
I was very interested in the first half of this. But there was only 1 song in the second half worth listening too. And a lot of filler in those last tracks.
This felt like a knock off of Arcade Fire.
Super fun to hear cheesey pop from countries not on the main list. For sure this was worth my time. But it's just regular pop with a Japanese flavour. And pop is... Well. Just pop.
Even the hit couldn't save this. It's like when Ross from Friends plays music.
I don't get this. And it's kind of a lot.
A little better than standard pop.
So much of the 80s sound just hasn't ahead well and this is very much in that category.
This record, and band, are rather culturally significant. I can't stand them. But I did make it through all of it.
Very forgettable for me. It's not bad. Just not really anything here. Also, the wiki on this album is wild. I've never read one that makes zero attempt to define the record. It just weaves review scores around a few facts about people it hasn't defined.
This is, by far, the most masturbatory live album if all time. Fuck everything about this record.
I'm glad I got to hear this. I remember hearing about this when it officially came out but never got around to listening to it. I enjoyed how stuttery it was. It's smart.
Nothing nothing nothing, oh that's the hit. It's alright but a little repetitive. Nothing nothing nothing.
Where's my pula shell necklace and hacky sack?! CHILL!
This was a really welcome surprise. It reminded me of Busdriver a bit in the flow and style. I REALLY dug this.
This want's to be a Neal Young with Crazy Horse record sooooo badly. Holy cow. It's like a Weird Al parody it's so close.
Woah. This makes the foo fighters sound like the most groundbreaking band of all time.
This was 1000% better than I expected it to be based on the band name and cover.
It's been a while since I heard some Zevon. I wasn't wearing a leisure suit so I was under dressed for the occasion. And no one got pregnant near me. So the spell didn't work this time.
A paint by numbers mashup of a few metal genres popular in the late 90's. It was too late, had zero new ideas, and cringe as hell. But there is a contingent of metal heads who were 100% in on this. I am not one of those metal heads. This is objectively bad.
This is a really good record. But it lacks cohesion. There's a track on here that would fit on a Ministry record. Then there's rockabilly. Then ranchero. I like that I can't predict it, but I feel like you gotta pick a lane a little
I always though Gorillaz was good, not great. I'm not a huge fan of dub. But I'm not sure that's it. I just think generally the first two records are overrated.
Lol. No. Fairly sure this guy is making the songs up as he plays them into his 4 track tape recorder. This is a joke right?
Of all the genres in the book, followed by the fewer genres from user submitted records, I know the least about reggae. And I've really only ever heard from Bob Marley who is fine, but not a favorite of mine.
This, like Marley, is fine. But I am failing to see the appeal. I just don't hear enough differences between the songs. And, (this is more about me than the music) up swing picking kind of annoys me.
But I hesitate to try and rate the relative quality of this due to my ignorance of the genre. This is clearly competent. It's well recorded and I hear the heart that went into it. I just don't "get" it.
This is a joke right? There's no way someone submitted this. Literal elevator music meant to be in the background. There's nothing here! And why is there 71 minutes of it?! It's literally the same song for over an hour.
Mogwai has come to my attention a number of times over the years. I am not sure why I have not given them my attention. But I really dig this. Very much in the style of Explosions in the Sky, a band I also like. I have added these dudes to my rotation!
Mmm. Line me some punk. And the Descendents are under represented for sure.
This was amazing in the first half. I felt like the back half kind of fell off but it still was really good. Good enough that I plan on listening to more from the band.
A crooner who isn't Sinatra. It's alright.
As a fair weather Beastie Boys fan who only really follows the hits, I was surprised this one had so many non songs. Record itself was fine
But this felt a little padded.
This wants to be Aeroplane Flies Over the Sea sooooo badly.
This is more generic Indy stuff. Kind of not memorable. There were a few minutes of jangly keys to distract me from my morning routine which was nice.
Something about this made me mad at myself for diminishing it. When I hear this dude sing I want to pat his head and tell him he is doing a great job. I don't like that I feel this way but here we are.
I'm torn here. I REALLY dislike live albums for this list. So few exceptions exist. Johnny Cash at Folsom for example is one. But is this another? The energy is of value here.... And the crowd noise is at a minimum so it appears it's at least a good soundboard.
I guess in the end it depends if this is a good reflection of what the band sounds like on record. And I have no idea what that is like. In a vacuum where I am seeking to hear new artists, this is still not a win. I do think a studio album would have been a better introduction to this band.
An hour of 30 second mashups? Oh no thank you.
Pop is pop, no matter the language.
Dear Lord this is bad. To the OP, it's okay to like bad music. My submission isn't popular either. And that's okay. But yeah, this is really bad.
All these years I thought some of these songs were just Zeppelin b-sides. Huh.
Good. But rather repetitive. By the end of the record, I was thinking it was the same song over and over.
Good start, but a lot of the same by the end. And it was rather forgettable for me.
Fuck yes. This was exactly what I needed this morning. I never heard of these peeps before and this was great. Also it's the PERFECT length. Damn this was fun!
I was about 2 years too young for hair metal. And thank God for that. This is fucking awful.
A little same sounding throughout. But generally good.
There are some really great soundscapes here and the hip hop elements are pretty good throughout. But the r&b inspired parts... Yesh. Not good at all.
I always thought this was the most opaque of Glovers releases. I'm a fan of it, and kind of most things he does. But this particular album was so far from "because the internet" that I wasn't sure how to hear it. Now, many years later, I can say it's good, but not my favorite.
This was cool but kind of dragged on a bit. Too many of the tracks had the same exact elements making it all sound the same.
This was fine. But very much not for me. It just didn't evoke the feelings in me that it was trying to.
I enjoyed the punk tracks. But the ska bullshit ruined this 100% for me. Fuck ska.
I didn't find this as engaging as some others here. It isn't bad. But it's still just the same indie sounds we've been hearing for like 15 years at this point.
What a weird and super fun record. 80s drenched but super different.
Even cheesey power metal is welcome on this list! Not enough of it for sure
I think Everything To Nothing was a better album than this one. But this was really good. I don't think I'd heard this before.
It's like if someone let ross from friends make an album.
Holy shit! I did NOT expect this. It does have no metal flavor, but this is a lot more than that. This actually good metal.
Fine for what it is. But this was a little tired. I feel like I've heard all this before
Good for the time it came out, this hasn't aged as well. It's sound is very tinny. Very hollow.
Holy shit. I'm more of a metal fan than hardcore usually. But this slaps. An easy 5, this thing is short, heavy, and was exactly what I needed on a Tuesday morning.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzz. I've never been so bored in my life.
This was fun. Though the next morning and I'm having trouble remembering specific moments. But that may be me.
This was big time not for me. I'm not a fan of that 80s new wave/rock thing most of the time. This sounds like it was well put together and recorded. I just can't get with the style of music.
There is zero excuse for this to be over an hour long. 20 minutes TOPS. I have no issues with samples. But this is just random other people's work for over an hour. Fuck this album and it's bullshit conceit.
Great! I'm very small doses.
I hadn't ever heard of this band before and this was a good introduction. It's Indie for sure but it feels different enough that I enjoyed it.
All bangers. This record dropped at a weird time for me and had it not been so amazingly perfect, I probably wouldn't have noticed it. I'm not a big fan of the band generally but this is basically perfect.
This just sounds like every other band from the era. It's like they collected all the b sides from the era and compiled them.
Great if you're in the right spot for it. But this would be awful if you weren't in the mood for over an hour of synth droning.
Oh my God! It's a beena while but this is a CLASSIC! There is NOTHING like this soundtrack. THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING THIS. So much weird joy and excitement. Holy shit.
This sounds just didn't age well. It's too jangly. To crisp. And there is zero bass. Songs are good though.
Am hour and nice minutes of the exact same sound except when he dropped some shit on the floor and kept it in. "Art" "revolutionary" "shit"
This had great moments. But a lot of it was just traditional rock recorded in a modern way.
I think I'm writing the same review as the album on the list. This band WANTS to he weird. They are trying way to hard. It's not working on me.
Woah. The first few minutes of this I was somewhat uninterested but this grabbed me. I need to listen a few more times but this was way more potent than I first thought. It really sucked me in. It's simple but there is a lot going on.
This may be the most generic album I've ever heard. It's like the soundtrack to the movie Loser, where everything is so generic, that it's completely forgotten the minute it ends. Yeah. I just threw TWO things under the bus!
Good, not great. Flow is top notch, feats are great. But every track sounds the same. Fairly certain all of them have the same bpm too.
A debut album that's an hour and a half? It almost doesn't matter how good or bad this is. That is just unacceptable. And there is a lot of wasted time here. I'd say 90% of this is just non song fucking around. There is an old school "secret song" which does pad the run time on streaming but my point still stands. This is a shit record and a waste of time.
Had there been so.e faster paced songs, this would have been a banger. But everything is just so slow...
I'm a fan of this band and this album. But agree it's too long. They should have released to records that year. And just 2 or 3 new songs total would have made that work. I just don't need albums over an hour in my life.
Having said that, this record has a mood that I just love. It's great.
This record wants to be Clapton meets Genesis so badly that I think it's lost it's way. It's not bad. But it doesn't have the chops to be either of those.
