This album is pretty interesting. It kicks off really strong, with an interpolation of a traditional song (which is also how it finishes). However, the album flows from being outstanding to being a bit of a bland intention to make something bigger. And, it's not that it's bad, not at all, but the music at times feels a bit insipid, or too much pop, or soft, which contrast with bigger tracks, affecting directly to the impression of this project. It's a very good album, a notable one, but some songs fail when being at some standard.

Oh, yes, this is a delightful album. Such a great, fantastic rock album. The guitar solos are a masterpiece, the songs are marvelous, the sound of the songs is enigmatic, delicate and so catching. I am in love with this record. I truly am. This album is psychedelic, but also very classy. It has something special, because it sounds so good... I am amazed by how good this album is. And that end is glorious. What a great album to discover!
Rated 10/10
How can I say an album is perfect without saying so? Well, I guess I won't try this time. I am impressed by how good it is, it actually is an album made by musicians with such great taste. They, combined, have made a masterpiece of an album. I am amazed by it. This is the kind of music that transmits a lot to me. And all the songs are great!
Rated 10/10
This album is great, so funky and groovy, but also with some interesting parts. It's very, very enjoyable. And a fun listening too. So, I've liked it a lot, and sure it will be an album I'll listen to other many times.
Rated 10/10
This album is as enigmatic as much as enjoyable, delicate and beautiful. It is such a delightful record, with so much variety and textures, as well as very atmospheric, in a very good sense. The songs grow with a lot of presence and taste, and the instruments sound so wildly great. I mean, it's great in all its senses. And it's a very interesting album, for sure.
Rated 8/10
This album is quite nice. However, it would never be my go to album, but, well, I guess it's a very enjoyable record. I don't think it's as deep as the band would think it is (and I say so because, at times, the album becomes redundant with not much direction or interest – I mean... that end, those ten last minutes of the same sustained note... what's the purpose of it?), but it's a good album, with some very nice songs. So, I've liked it after all.
Rated 6/10
Well, this was not bad... but not good either. I should have liked it more, I guess, and at times the album was pretty nice, but others it was just a mess (and not a good mess). So, I'm not much impressed by it. It feels at times an exaggeration of the genre, others, it tries to be a bit different, but it doesn't work that well, to be honest.
Rated 10/10
This album is really amazing, with such two great songs, so delicately composed. I mean, it is so perfect as it is... It's a very pleasant listening, and one album that flows really well and quick. It feels it makes me want more. I'm really amazed about this one.
Rated 6/10
This album is better than what I thought, but I didn't like it to the extent to say it's good. At least some songs are nice, and some arrangements too. Well, it was nice... I guess.
Rated 2/10
Well... okay. It was horrid. And it just gets worse and worse. Maybe because it's so so boring, but also because the songs... well, I guess if you like rap you will like them, but, for me, they are all the same. It's the same thing all the time but with different repetitive instrumental bases. And, yes, bases, because there is neither an interesting instrumental part on the album at all.
Rated 10/10
This album is wildly good! It's not just that the songs are magnificent (some more than others, of course), but it is also such a great live album. It all sounds great. It's such a very enjoyable album that flows really well. A great one, for sure.
Rated 4/10
This album is soulless, and that is something very sad in music. I did not like any song on here, they are all just plain music, with synths and whatever they want to add but with no actual intention, or relevance, or interest. The songs try to be atmospheric at an extent that they become bland and... boring. There are nice parts though, but they are never a song as a whole but a good idea that, by repetition or the atmospheric feeling of the album, becomes tiring or irrelevant. It is not the worst thing I have ever listened to, by far, so I guess I have to be a bit generous this time when rating, but this album is not something I would ever listen to again. With one listen I had enough. And not at the extent to like it in any way.
Rated 2/10
This album is... oh, well, at least I got to the last song. Because it's the most boring thing I've ever listened to. And probably the worst thing too. I mean, it's so so repetitive and insipid! I may not understand hip-hop (of course, it's a genre I don't like at all), but this album is just so horrible... And, what did I get from this? Really, is there something the least interesting on this album or is it just some uninspired music? Because I'm confused by how bad it is.
Rated 10/10
This album is great... I mean, it's Ray Charles. There are fantastic songs on here, and there is too much quality too, so all the songs add a bit of greatness to the overall feeling. And what an overall! This album has amazing songs!
Rated 8/10
Well, well... I didn't know what to expect, and I didn't really expect much, honestly, but this has been much much better than what I thought it would be. This album is a very good one! Some songs are not much of my cup of tea, but others are quite good.
Rated 8/10
It's not as bad as I thought it would be; this album is, actually, pretty nice. I wouldn't say mind-blowing (not at all), but, it's an enjoyable record, with some interesting arrangements and atmospheres. Really nice.
Rated 8/10
This album is good, very 60's actually. But, even though I get the relevance of The Beach Boys in music and enjoy their stuff (don't get me wrong, it's an album I enjoyed listening to), I can't get to like them more than just saying "it's pretty nice". Their music is very enjoyable, but there is something that I still don't love. Well, maybe there's an album of them I haven't listened yet that will make me appreciate them. For now, as for this album, I enjoyed the listen, and it's good, really, it's good.
Rated 10/10
This album is magnificent, such a great concept album that seems more of an opera than an actual rock record, with its overture, some long instrumental parts and the narration of a story. It has a very classic narrative style, and it's great how it evolves. I've loved listening to it, it is as interesting as great, and there are magnificent songs there. Christmas is one example of them, so greatly constructed and with such great taste. Of course, there are songs that are not that great, and it's hard to keep such a high level in all songs for an album that long, but they help the overall, they don't feel out of place or like filler. Instead, the songs are very well structured to function as a whole. And that whole is one masterpiece of an album.
Wow, this album is fantastic! It's very experimental, and there are so many layers to explore in here as well as a great feeling of freedom that make it feel a very immersive and new experience. I bet there is nothing like that. This is the kind of music to listen to carefully, with attention, that is not easy at first but that, when you get (into) to it and understand it, it is a great listening experience to dive in. There are more accesible songs in here, other much more avant-garde, also acapella ones... All conforming such a masterpiece of an album.
Rated 10/10
This album is absolutely fabulous. I've loved listening to it, it's really enjoyable, a bit psychedelic, and worth a listen or more, for sure. It has some Beatles sound, but with its own personality. A bit of experimentation from here to there and also with some variety. Sure a fantastic listening. I've loved it!
