The Prodigy · 1 likes
5/5
This album landed in the perfect time and place for guys born in the mid 80s. A classic nostalgia injection.
Limp Bizkit · 1 likes
1/5
There is some nostalgia to this, but it is embarrassingly bad. The worst of their albums that I've heard.
The Smiths · 1 likes
1/5
The smiths are so fucking boring. Listening to this album was like hearing the Friends theme song 50 times in a row.

Sun, June 1 2025
Not a huge synth pop guy but interesting no less
Sister Sledge
3/5
Interesting to see this being the origin of many samples for songs in the 90s-00s
Crosby, Stills & Nash
4/5
Great album, have always enjoyed this one.
Stan Getz

Not much for jazz/lounge music
Earth, Wind & Fire

Cool sound

3/5
Not bad. Pretty well what i expected from the songs that I knew
Nine Inch Nails
3/5
I can see the concept and understand that it's important to the genre, just not my thing.
The White Stripes
4/5
Great initial offering
Red Snapper

Pretty boring. I don't know the history of edm but I'm sure this is important or something.
The Beach Boys
4/5
Great album. Love the harmonies and sound
Buddy Holly & The Crickets
4/5
Awesome early rock n roll album. Love the guitar work
Bob Dylan
2/5
This is one of his more annoying sounding albums
Aerosmith
2/5
Aerosmith is not good. There were a couple ok songs on here but I don't and never will appreciate their sound.
Tangerine Dream
2/5
I get it. This album was likely monumental at the time. I also loved the soundtrack for thief and the one with the car on the bridge. But these are way too long.
Jerry Lee Lewis
3/5
Cool live album
Dusty Springfield
4/5
Great album. Very distinctive voice
Joy Division
2/5
I've always maintained that this album is overrated. Still holds true.
The Kinks
3/5
New Order
2/5
ZZ Top
3/5
Im not sure ZZ top is anyone's favorite band. They are the textbook definition of average rock band
Paul McCartney and Wings
3/5
Pretty solid. Second favorite solo Beatles album
Beck
4/5
Not a typical beck album that I'm used to but a really nice chill sound. Would be a good driving around at night album
Laibach
1/5
I had never heard of this. It's cheesy as hell. I can see how it influenced rammstein, but it is really not for me.
Jane's Addiction
3/5
Pretty standard stuff for the 90s. Not sure I've listened all the way through before
Maxwell
1/5
The Cure
2/5
Pixies
3/5
Marvin Gaye
3/5
I can see how this was premium boning music back in the day

Cool early album of theirs. Closer to kyuss than modern queens
FKA twigs
1/5
Jorge Ben Jor
4/5
Awesome album. Really cool groove

5/5
This album landed in the perfect time and place for guys born in the mid 80s. A classic nostalgia injection.
Kate Bush
1/5
There are so many boring songs on this album.
Gary Numan
4/5
This is an excellent album. Really cool early synth goes well with Numan's singing style. Great listen.
Ella Fitzgerald
3/5
Lovely voice
The Doors
3/5
The Doors are a little divisive for me. They have some of thr most boring bluesy rock songs ever, but then some of them are amazing. I like their songs that dive into psych rock a little better but this album only has one of those.
Wire
3/5
Cool sound, a little too old school British for my taste.
Black Sabbath
4/5
Fleetwood Mac
5/5
This album is almost perfect, aside from the gross oh daddy song
Kate Bush
3/5
Much better than her later stuff
David Bowie
2/5
Not a great offering from Bowie. A little scrambled.
Belle & Sebastian
2/5
A little too soft and feely for my liking.

The soundtrack of adolescence. Not really very good, but interesting and nostalgic.
B.B. King
3/5
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
4/5
A classic by all accounts

A fun listen, 60s music is interesting to dig into

The Magnetic Fields

1/5
There is some nostalgia to this, but it is embarrassingly bad. The worst of their albums that I've heard.
Michael Kiwanuka
3/5
Started out strong but tapered off. Not bad though still.
Nick Drake
4/5
Awesome album, great vibe
X-Ray Spex
3/5
Never heard this before, I can see how it got lost in the mix during that time. Not bad overall though.
My Bloody Valentine
2/5
This album was either really boring or I just wasn't in the mood for it
Rufus Wainwright
3/5
Great voice
Iron Maiden
2/5
Early Iron Maiden pre- Dickinson is not great. Kind of slow and boring

Pretty standard 60s psych rock

Possibly the best hard rock album of the 90s
Dr. Dre
3/5
Not bad, I am not nostalgic about this as I am about 2001 chronic.
Fleet Foxes
3/5
Great vocal driven music. Lovely harmonies.
Aerosmith
2/5
I'd like to re-iterate how irritating I find Aerosmith. This is one of the better ones but it's still not really good.
Joan Armatrading
2/5
Pretty folksy
Bob Dylan
3/5
Better than blonde on blonde due to less whiny voice
The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy
3/5
This was great! Sounds like something the teacher would make the class listen to in Dangerous Minds or any movie like that.
Todd Rundgren
4/5
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Great unique talent and sound.
Everything But The Girl
1/5
Beastie Boys
5/5
This is the best beasties album, though it is difficult to choose just one.
Björk
2/5
Interesting voice and style but a little too far out
Genesis
3/5
If we're picking genesis albums, this isn't the one. I appreciate the deep cuts and piano heavy rock songs but they have much better albums.
Pet Shop Boys
2/5
PJ Harvey

Little Richard
3/5
Classic album
Jimi Hendrix
3/5
Don McLean
4/5
I didnt think I'd know as many songs on this as I did. Great folk album.

Scott Walker
2/5
CHIC

Run-D.M.C.

This is the second dexys album I've reviewed. Completely different, much better and fun.
Kelela
2/5
2 only because this isn't really my type of music. Im sure it is good if that's your sort of thing
Cat Stevens
5/5
What a great fucking album.
The Isley Brothers
3/5
The Killers
3/5
The hype around that one song is unfounded. Not even top 3 on this album. That being said, this is just fine.
Neil Young
3/5
Beach House
2/5
A little too ethereal
Everything But The Girl
1/5
How the fuck did two albums from these guys get on this list?

The origins of butt rock
Lorde
2/5
Bill Evans Trio

Beatles

2/5
Otis Redding

4/5
Fela Kuti
3/5
Interesting sound on this, not quite jazz but really fun. I dont hate it.
Emmylou Harris
2/5
Production wise, it sounds fine. Like most albums of the time. Musically, it is so boring. Every song sounds the same. Good for her for making an album, but it doesn't hold a candle to her earlier works.
Pulp
4/5
Really enjoyed this one
Unremarkable. Rod Stewart has a great voice in his early days
Duke Ellington
3/5
This is the first jazz album that i haven't hated. Lively and fun, not annoying jazz.
The Rolling Stones
4/5
Great bluesy sound. Maybe their best?
Jungle Brothers
2/5
This album is so long. Great bang for your buck, if you like the music. Unfortunately I did not for the most part.
Astrud Gilberto
2/5
This is elevator music.
The Jam
2/5
Van Halen
5/5
This has to be one of the best debut albums of all time. Very few misses in the track listing. David Lee Roth's vocals and EVH's guitar prowess make this an all time great.
David Bowie
5/5
Incredible album. A top 10 for me. No notes.
Nirvana
4/5
I can't believe ive never listened to this front to back. Great flow, love this.
Björk
2/5
This has to be for someone, unironically. I dont get it. Maybe I'm too dumb but it's just kind of noisy in a bad way.
Aerosmith
1/5
Fuck. This is the third fucking Aerosmith album ive encountered on this list and I am just not here for it. Aerosmith is low effort trash. They are the grandfathers of butt rock. Aerosmith dads give birth to puddle of mudd kids. Fuck Aerosmith.
Fela Kuti
2/5
Janelle Monáe
2/5
There were 3 or 4 songs on this that were very good and enjoyable. The other 87 songs were pretty cheesy. Like on fresh prince when Ashley launches her singing career. It reminded me a lot of that.
Dwight Yoakam
3/5
This was great, I wish country music was still like this instead of the america loving pop garbage it is now
Butthole Surfers
2/5
There was one song I enjoyed on this, it seems to be before they got their footing. I enjoy their later stuff much more, this was just noisy for the sake of it.
Chicago
2/5
I have always found Chicago to be kind of boring
The Who
3/5
Alanis Morissette
5/5
What a masterpiece from Alanis. This album is almost perfect.
David Bowie
2/5
I wish I hadnt listened to this. Really taints the water for Bowie.
The Blue Nile
2/5
Basement Jaxx
2/5
Beatles
3/5
Good listen, enjoyed thoroughly l
Stan Getz
1/5
How the fuck did Stan Getz get 3 albums on this list SO FAR? I'm only at like 160 and I have had 3 of these elevator music albums come my way already. I got the gist of it after 2 songs from the first one.
The United States Of America
2/5
At least it was interesting to listen to.
Linkin Park
1/5
I'm not sure what's more embarrassing - linkin park now or linkin park when this came out.
Grateful Dead
2/5
Grateful dead has never interested me. I get it for the folks who enjoy the genre but they've never been my cup of tea
Television
4/5
Moby
3/5
This was pleasant to listen to as I worked.
Tim Buckley
3/5
Interesting sound. Not as typical as other music of the time.
Bon Jovi
3/5
This is good in the way that it is just kind of ubiquitous. Its so ingrained in culture that I barely noticed i was listening to it.
The Beta Band
3/5
Yeah I mean it would be ok for background music
4/5
Normally this would just get a 3, this album is OK. BUT based on impact to the music industry it gets a bump
Boston
5/5
The only thing wrong with this album is that it isn't long enough.
Death In Vegas
1/5
It's nice that they made an album specifically for late 90s action movies.
David Holmes
2/5
Soft Cell
2/5
I was hoping this would be good, as I usually enjoy new wave albums with deep cool tracks. Really did not hit the mark for me
Sade

People love this album. I feel like it has been stomped into my brain so hard that it falls flat as shit now.
The Crusaders

The Temptations
3/5
The Beta Band
2/5
Sigur Rós
2/5
This album brings me back to a time where middling adolescents tried way too hard to be deep. To an extent, I enjoy the ethereal feel of this, but it really kind of just falls short due to the aforementioned statement. I will watch a life aquatic again though because of this.

Black Sabbath
4/5
What makes this album great is that the deeper tracks are also really cool songs.
Fiona Apple
3/5
It's much better than most music produced in the same era. Singer/songwriter seems like a thing of the past in the mainstream.
Elvis Costello
4/5
Pretty classic Costello album, always enjoyable.
Suede
2/5
Hole

I had never given this one much thought, but man, this is really good. You can see how she has influenced a generation of female led bands in a very heavy way. Great listen.

This is the most 60s British rock I've ever heard

Fun 90s vibe, kind of middling for the era but still a good listen.
The Vines
4/5
It's too bad they couldn't really put anything together after this. Great album
3/5
I can understand why I've never heard of this. Just a lesser album of the era. That being said, it is a lot better that most new music.
Jethro Tull

Very fun!
Isaac Hayes

Boring as hell
