One of the best albums ever recorded in my opinion. Everything about it is top notch, from the songs to the musicians, to the album cover. It is the perfect mix of Blues, Sex, and Rock N Roll that helped define a decade.

A very typical punk album. I like it but I don't flock to it.

This album is a dynamite work showcasing Mike Patton's vocal range. I come back to this one on a regular basis and use it almost as a palate cleanser.

The definitive album by this band collectively dubbed, the only band that matters. Banger after banger

Seek & Destroy is literally one of the best songs of this era. This album itself is raw, it's early punk, and it's everything it was supposed to be.

The album was a mixed bag. Some really good songs, and some meh songs.

There is nothing about this album that screams I must listen to it before I die. To me, this band sounds like Radiohead went prog.

This album is fine. It's got a message but I just don't really feel the album itself stands out in any way.

This is a phenomenal album. The guitar solo on Three Days always blows my mind. Just a ton of good songs and showing a band that is hitting its stride at the right moment.

Lucinda Williams dropped a dynamite album here. The songs are great and help bridge the gap between old school country and newer country without committing to the party atmosphere that a lot of country songs and artists have done in recent years.

This album is very brit-punk in every sense. From the way the music is written, to the lyrical themes, to the vocal styles. There is nothing wrong with it and given the right audience this is a banger of an album.

An overall solid album. Johnny Marr's guitar work is exemplary and Morrissey's vocals carry that certain quality of someone who is trying to catch lightning in a bottle.

The thing about this album is, it's good, but not great. I personally feel like they threw everything at the wall to see what would stick. The Beatles are listed as one of the greatest music acts of all time, and with good reason. But at some point they overextended themselves for the sake of art and became a parody of a good band.

After opening with the banger that is Cinnamon Girl, the album itself is average. Down By The River is a great track as well but the other 5 tracks do nothing for me. As I was listening I thought to myself, at some point Neil Young just becomes noise.

I greatly enjoy this album but I always forget about it until a random thought pops it back into my head. The guitar playing skills are on display and make Hendrix sound amazing.

It was angsty and artsy. It was post-rock before post-rock. It's not my cup of tea.

This album is an impressive recording with great vocals and songwriting. That being said, I do not understand its direction and that makes it a challenging listen. I likely will never listen to this again.

This was a very well done album. The songwriting was great, the musicianship was great, everything about it screamed great. Is this something I would come back, to probably not. But I respect it a lot.

A very good album that features great musicianship and a killer title track. In fact, the whole second side is just a groove that is underappreciated by the majority of listeners, I'm sure. This listen through really got me reflecting on it.

This album is an all time classic. Jim Steinman and Marvin Lee Adday (aka Meatloaf) are a dynamite duo. Steinman's songwriting is masterful while Meatloaf's performance delivers the emotions behind them perfectly.
