Well that was something. Was it music? Maybe? Was it ahead of its time? I hope not. It felt like it wanted to be Throbbing Gristle and that's not a compliment. But does feel like it was on purpose, so I'll give it that.

Lovely sound! I hate the repeated tracks though, this isn't a deluxe edition or anything! No thank you.

I don't think I would love this as much if I wasn't brought up on it as a classic. But I was, so I do love it. Four stars probably from nostalgia and familiarity.

Astounding! What arresting sound! It feels cool and dark and frenetic and wonderful. Even two songs in and I have a hard time imagining not loving the rest of the album. And I loved it.

Much like Bowie and Cohen, I really want to love Beck. While I do like it more than them, it's not in a genre I love, too subdued a lot of the time.

So smooth! Amazing. Would put on again.

Great 60's sound. Loved the bluegrass meets pop feel. Would listen again

I enjoyed that! Instrumentally it wasn't my favorite, but would listen again

This would have been a fun concert. I don't know that I want to listen to it that much after the fact. I can understand how this would be been revolutionary at the time.

This was really cool. I don't think I'm ever going to revisit, but I'm glad I gave it a listen. I can definitely understand how this industrial style electronica was influential.

I've always known Maggie Mae was a bop, but it's awesome to learn od goes hard sometimes. Great listen.

I don't get why people like Madonna. She has the worst kind of nasal vibrato, just not pleasant. The first two tracks are interesting enough to save this album, but just barely.

I don't like country, but she enchanted me on Live from Here. I am prepared to love this. It was enchanting. Kacey tells really poignant stories. If I liked country this would be a five star album.

I don't know if I'm loving this because I had to google it to find and listen to it, or because I would be loving it regardless. Either way, this is amazing!

Punk lives! Beautiful.

Sting can really croon you know? That was great. Message in a Bottle is a classic and Reggatta De Blanc was cool. Loved contact too.

This is great! Punk pop is such a vibe! It's kind of funny the most kitschy song off the album is the one that caught on. I like it all.

Nice solid listen. Enjoyed my time with this smooth pretty album

I was really enjoying the album, I was prepared to give a very high rating, then the album ended and spotify played me WuTang and MF Doom and made this album look pedestrian. I really enjoyed the production and flow and some of the woke themes, but this is no masterpeice.

That was a very solid rock album. Turns out I'm just not that into southern rock.
