Rated 8/10

This album is great, so cohesive and enjoyable. I am really surprised the sound is very clear. And, also, the songs are fantastic. What a great album to discover! It's not a masterpiece but sometimes what you need is something fun to listen to, and this album is great at that.

This album is fantastic. I enjoyed every single song, and the first one is flawless and a great introduction. Also, this album has so many layers that it's such a pleasure to be listening to it. I mean, I loved this!

I thought I would like this album more. However, it feels tasteless and uninteresting, but, overall, pretentious. Some songs are nice, but the album doesn't favour them, and they are not as strong to actually make this album better than what it is.

This album is really good. It has many great songs, even though it's not that strong for me to actually think it's great. At some point it feels like it doesn't have much more to offer. But, overall, the album has great songs, that's something that cannot be denied. And I enjoyed it a lot.

This album is really good, I enjoyed it so much. Many songs are fantastic, so groovy and funky. The big song here is, definitely, Papa Was A Rolling Stone, but there is a lot of variety, and also other great songs too. So, even if it's not a perfect album for me, it's worth being on the list.

Okay, this was bad... Bad and boring. I mean, there's nothing that can save this album. Metal? I think it's more of rap than metal, seriously (but I don't like rock-rap or how it is called anyway). However, in the end, I don't care what genre it is, it feels uninteresting and too long for what it has to offer (which is nothing actually). There is one song (or two) that isn't that bad but... it isn't even good to be fair. I'm sure there's people who like it but, for me, it is definitely something I will never listen again. Really, what's the point on making this? To feel "cool"? Well, this is the "uncoolest" thing ever... It's so artificial and silly that sometimes it feels more like a parody than something serious. I am honest, I have listened to the whole thing without prejudices, but one song or two are listenable... More than an hour and ten minutes is just too much!

I find myself bewitched by how much I've liked this album. Some songs are simply beautiful... And that's not a simple thing at all, to be fair. Some songs are not much interesting musically, but, as an overall, the album is fantastic. Most of the songs are a delight, with such precious arrangements. It's a really warm and beautiful album, for sure. Even if there are songs that haven't convinced me, I must say I've liked it a lot.

This album is quite interesting, not my cup of tea but I will not deny that I enjoyed it. It's very ethereal, and I liked it so much. I wouldn't probably listen to it again but it wasn't bad at all.

This album is so great at times that it hurts me to feel that some songs were bland and uninteresting to me. While listening to it my internet decreased until the last song, which was pretty nice. So, I liked it, but the album has many aspects that doesn't make me love it.

This album is hauntingly beautiful, wonderful, so greatly done and with so much taste. It's great, and I can't say anything other than it, I've loved listening to it. It's great to discover albums like this one.

I should have liked this album but... I didn't find it interesting. It is not bad though. I just didn't enjoy it so much, it feels like some covers all together without much sense. And maybe it really is that way.

Well so... What's the point? This feels repetitive, and in a very bad way. Most of the songs feel endless, and they are all the time the same, with basic beats and uninteresting synths. The only song I liked a bit (and I wouldn't say it's good) is "Aquarius" but, well, the songs that follow are just... Some are not that bad but, the album, as an overall, is something I would never listen to again. Honestly, this atmospheric thing is not for me.

This album is more of noise than rock, to begin with. It's not that I don't like noise at all, some albums of that genre are interesting but... It's not my thing (at all). As for this album, it's repetitive and uninteresting most of the time. There are only two songs that are, at least, decent. It's not that they are actually great but at least there's something there. And one of them is the last song. As for the rest... I don't care.

It's the 80's new wave fever and... Well... Does it mean the music is good? Not really. Most of it is just horrible. But there are some good songs and albums too. The thing is that this album is not an example of this. There are two nice songs (even though I am not sure if they are actually good). As for the rest, I don't care. It is insipid and uninteresting.

Two consecutive hip-hop albums... And it feels like it is trying to tire me to boredom or convince me to like it by repetition. Well, I'm going to reinforce my opinion. Once you've listened to one hip-hop album, you've heard it all (or, at least, a ninety percent of what you can expect of this genre). This album is repetitive, long and bland. Its length wouldn't be a problem if the music were interesting, but it's not the case. And (more of a critique to hip-hop than to this album as I don't think the lyrics of this album are good at all) I can't focus on the lyrics if the music isn't interesting for me. It's like having so much noise in the background and trying to focus on a conversation... It doesn't work. As this album, I didn't like it at all. But I knew it even before clicking play.

Really? I don't understand how it can be an album I should listen before I die. Is it cohesive? Well, yes, but it's so long that starts to become boring at some point. Is it fun? I would say... It could? I don't get the fun of hip-hop, of the lyrics or whatever is fun here, but I'm not going to judge. I don't like hip-hop at all, and that's just me. Is it the problem here? I'm pretty sure, but it doesn't change the fact that this album is just like much more of the same hip-hop has been about. Sonically, it's not interesting, it doesn't explore anything else than LL Cool J singing over samples, simple melodies and a rhythm base, which is the main thing about hip-hop... So, what's the interest here? I guess you have to like it, but, again, I don't like this stuff.

I didn't think I would enjoy this album. Honestly, Radiohead doesn't make the kind of music I would want to listen to. But maybe this is just a prejudice. This album is great at some parts, about others I don't really care. But, as an overall, it feels very well done, cohesive and not repetitive at all (which was what happened to me when I listened to Amnesiac, I felt it was bland and boring, with not much to say, actually). So I'm glad this album is much better that what I expected, and to have really liked it.

This album is mind-blowing. It is fantastic, since it begins. All of the songs are great, or I should say excellent. It doesn't lose any quality, being all the songs standouts on a very cohesive and well-done record.

I liked this album, so much. It is fresh and has many good songs. I didn't expect to find things like that on this list, but I'm glad there are. It was hard to find the album, though.

Rated 8/10

I've never listened to this album before, but I've listened to other Peter Gabriel albums. So, this one is great, yet not his best project. I've liked it a lot. As always, Peter Gabriel explores different genres, sounds, even cultures, and at this he is excellent. This album is exquisite, with a lot of textures and layers. It is delicious. But, yet, I get to the conclusion that it's great but not excellent. Although, of course, this one is an album to listen to, and I will revisit it more than once.
