Rated 10/10
This album is fantastic; it is not innovative in any sense, but it has so many great songs! I am surprised by the variety here but, also, by how cohesive everything feels. This album truly is a very enjoyable one. I've liked it a lot.

Rated 8/10
Well, this album doesn't add anything new to the blues genre but it is very enjoyable, and I can't deny that I liked it a lot. It doesn't feel repetitive or long, to be honest. It feels very well linked. Also, all the songs are very well done and the production works really well when trying to sound raspy and noisy (yet it actually is very polished).
Rated 6/10
This album is not that bad, but sometimes it becomes a chaos of different sounds that feel a bit bland. I liked some songs, not much, but a bit. But others were very insipid for my like. So, I don't think it's bad, but it has some aspects that haven't convinced me much.
Rated 6/10
This album is nice. However, even though it's good, some songs are a bit bland and repetitive, and it's nothing impressive, to be honest. So, I liked it, but I can't say much more than that about this album, except that it's pretty enjoyable.
Rated 4/10
I didn't think I would enjoy this album, not really when I started listening to it. But, as the songs went on, I have enjoyed it more and more and, to be honest, I don't think it's bad at all. This is not an album I would eventually want to listen to, but I (kind of) liked it. It's basic in some aspects with some interesting textures sometimes; some songs are more atmospheric, but without losing the very industrial essence and aggressive beats that give this album some sonic consistency and power (even if it lacks of being more interesting to make me want to listen to the more than an hour that it consists of again). So, even if it's far from being something good for me to really like it, I won't say it's bad. But it's not my style at all, for sure.
Rated 10/10
I've loved this album, definitely. It's such a pleasant and very interesting musical experience, so immersive and with so many layers and textures. This album is incredibly experimental but also beautiful and haunting, so soft and ethereal at times... So magnificent! It's truly a highlight for me.
Rated 8/10
This album is pretty good. It's a very easy listening, but yet really interesting too. I've liked it a lot, even though the last songs started to feel a little less interesting for me.
Rated 4/10
This album sounds like many other britpop albums. It's nothing interesting (in any way) and it becomes very repetitive. It is so bland and, in some way, uninspired too. Yes, it may have songs that are good, or, at least, not that bad, but, overall, the album is very long for what it really has to offer. The songs are not good at all. Some are more enjoyable, but this does not mean that they are actually good. So, this is a very forgettable album with very basic and generic songs.
Rated 8/10
This album is pretty good. All the layers and textures in there are very well developed. It adds a lot, as it's such a nice immersive experience, sometimes not that interesting but, overall, a very pleasant listening.
Rated 10/10
What a delightful album! All the layers on this record add a very impressive atmosphere, so interesting and deep. It is mostly like a cinematographic experience. This album is so immersive, perfectly developed, with so much care and subtlety. I've loved listening to it, it is such an extraordinary, immersive, fragile, deep and pleasurable experience. I have no words for how great this album is. I mean, it is fantastic, a ten out of ten, there is nothing bad here, everything feels so cohesive and magnificent. I love this album. It is one of the best albums I have ever listened to. And it is such a pleasure to have discovered it today.
Rated 6/10
This album is not bad, but not much of my taste. I don't like grunge music that much, and this album in some way portrays those things I don't like of this genre, even though some songs are pretty interesting, and I have to admit I liked them. So it is nice, but not my cup of tea.
Rated 10/10
This album is actually really great. I haven't ended up liking that much some of the songs here, but most of them are very impressive. So, even if I doubted whether to give it four or five stars, I think it well deserves five. The variety of sounds and layers on this album is amazing. I've enjoyed it a lot.
Rated 6/10
I suppose this album is nice. Some songs are good. However, others are bland. I have a mixed opinion on this one. I felt interesting some parts, but I don't like how the album has been developed sometimes. It's not bad, though, but it's not something that I would highlight either.
Rated 8/10
This album is pretty good, I've enjoyed it so much. It's not much interesting sometimes, to be honest, but it's a nice listening. And some instrumental parts are fantastic.
Rated 10/10
This album is a fantastic example on why live albums may also be great, adding new layers to the discography of many artists. It's such a great experience to listen to it, and the songs are excellent.
Rated 6/10
This album is really nice at some points as well as uninteresting and bland at some others. It is not great at all, but not bad though. It just feels insipid when the songs start to feel the same. It's a good album to listen to without much attention, it's funky, groovy... very enjoyable. But just that.
Rated 4/10
Ok, another hip-hop album... I'm getting tired of this genre (so much!). I understand that it has been very influential, but, for me, hip-hop is very uninteresting and repetitive, and this album is all of this too (as bland). Lyrically, it is interesting at some parts, but I can't think about it if the album is driving me to boredom.
Rated 8/10
This album is really good. However, I liked so much Call of the Valley that I thought I would love this one – and maybe I'll do if I listen to it more –, but it hasn't been exactly the case. It has beautiful music, that's for sure, the album is enchanting. But I haven't enjoyed it that much, to be fair. It is really nice that the songs start with an explanation of the music, though. So, overall, it's an album I have to listen again, but a great musical experience.
This album is great. The songs are really enjoyable, and it is a very strong recording overall. I wouldn't say it's excellent, but it's a highlight for sure.
Rated 6/10
This album isn't bad, but it's not much of my liking. It's very safe, and doesn't offer much more than 80's new-wave, which becomes very insipid for me and is the same thing all the time. So it's nice, not bad, but not that good to be a highlight. I would give it a 5 out of 10, so three stars is fair enough.
