hypnotizing

start of the greatest 5 year run in music yet

big eh. 2.5

no, silly. youre not iron man

depeche mode ages like fine wine

it sounds like an SNL skit about oasis

spiritualized but make it fun. 4.5

hetfield and co sound like a caricature of themselves. 2.5

i dont actually think this album would work as a soundtrack. listens to me more like a modern ballet/dance piece (i guess the west side story wordplay is kind of apt). not my cup of tea, but honestly not that bad.

the singing is pretty impressive, and the recording even more so. but it's so dated and repetitive.

theres a good ep in here

it's pretty good, if a bit long. imo it's not special enough to warrant a place in the list along with 1989. 3.5

sounds like a perfect summer party where nothing can ruin your mood. not even this album. 1.5

makes me feel almost as cool as herbie

somewhere between Michael Jackson and Phil Collins

one of the most one sided beef in music history

holy shit what a fucking intro

this album sounds like looking at the sky with a new pair of glasses

really good brit pop. killer debut

it's mostly enjoyable. debut was better imo. also, 2 specials albums? at least pick a different ska album
