This album is GREAT! All the textures on it are a delightful thing to explore, and to think of it as a debut is insane. There is so much creativity there. It's so experimental, and so interesting too. This may be my favorite psychedelic album that I have listened so far. This music is made for listening to it, to dive into the atmospheres it creates through the minutes, to get into it and enjoy it. And it's fantastic the music of this The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn. It's not pretentious, it's genuine and wonderful, and smart.

This album is not much inspired, it's raw and feels like a collection of unfinished songs with not much to say. I thought I would like it, but it has not been the case. Some songs were good, but most of the album was bland and uninteresting for me.

This album is really good. Some songs were not much of my like, but, overall, the album is really enjoyable, and it's two hours long, which is something difficult to keep the interest of it during that time, so it's really worth listening to. I also loved the different textures on it. It's beautiful at many times.

This album is so enjoyable and intentionally stupid that makes it a funny and pleasant listening. The instrumentations are great. A really nice one, not perfect, but it doesn't have to be perfect or excellent to make you enjoy it a lot.

This is excellent! A great and full of pleasure and joy experience. Those guys are fantastic, and this album is marvelous. I loved all the bass and guitar, so present and dominant in the record. The production is also great. I have had so much joy listening to this album. Great, great, great!

This is a beautifully pleasant listening, with so many sounds and sad songs, but all made with, again, a beautiful touch, so delicate and great. Not all the songs where great for me, some felt less interesting and good than others. But, overall, the album is greatly done, so I won't give it five stars, because I would be too generous, but four are fair enough for a solid record as this one, which is really delightful.

The album wasn't bad, but I don't understand all the hype on Slipknot. The music is nothing really impressive, it's just some intense music that lacks of anything else.

It's a really good album, not their best but a great one for sure. The songs are all very enjoyable and there is some diversity too, which is always something great.

I didn't expect that album to be good, actually. It's not something great, something to highlight, but I liked it, at least some parts, and that's something... And more if we're talking about Lenny Kravitz, who can be a really boring guy.

Some songs were good, or at least not as bad as the others because the bad songs were horrible. This album is like a mixture of different sounds combined without much sense. Sometimes it works (not really sure if well, but at least it does) and others it terribly does not. Not to talk about the last song, but at least it was just less than a minute.

This album is great, irreverent and funny, a really rocker record that is such a surprisingly enjoyable listening.

At first, I thought I would like this album more than I actually do. It's a really bad record, very 80's pop, but in a very bad sense. It feels uninspired and full of filler. I didn't like it, that's all.

This album is great from beginning to end. All the songs are excellent and so full of Presley's energy. Fantastic and so enjoyable, this album is a classic, if you like it or not. Great for Elvis!

Some albums are great and others are excellent timeless masterpieces. This one is of the second group, being a testament of Madonna proving for the seventh time (and not last) why she is the Queen of Pop. This album comes from one of the most reflective and creative times of all of her career, for which she went deep into the electronic music and meditation, rediscovering herself and giving a new perspective and dimension to her career. Ray of Light is a diverse yet very cohesive album, with great pop songs. The pop genre dives into lots of textures and fantastic lyrics in this record, that would shape the genre for future generations. This album is not just pop, it's electronica, rock, a bit of folk, and, overall, Madonna at her best shape.

When I saw it was a rock album I didn't think it was going to be a very house influenced record but... whatever. It's nice, funny and with some interesting textures and different sounds, but it's not a really good album though. Some house tracks have been too much for me but other songs were good, so I'm divided with my opinion about this album. If some songs were shorter it would have been much better, but I really appreciate all the work done on this album and how many sounds coexist in this very diverse record.

I wasn't expecting much of it, mostly because I once tried to listen to the whole thing. But, after (finally) listening to the full album, it just feels bad and bland. There were a few songs that weren't that bad or I even liked, but this album is just too much. And it's too much grunge for today too. If Nirvana was successful is because of the times in which they were making music, but they are nothing special, and, even sometimes, they are bad... Like really bad! There are other ways to try to avoid to be mainstream (if it was really what they wanted, which I'm not really sure to be true).

What a fantastic, delightfully perfect album! It's robotic, futuristic but also terribly human. I can't describe with words how marvelous the listening experience was. The electronic genre has evolved a lot, but that very human interaction in this album gives it a very warm sound. I have to listen to this one many more times, I've definitely loved it.

Well, I swear I try to be open-minded but... This was horrible! And I knew it even before listening to the album. At least it's not the worst thing I've heard of the list, but, why is it supposed to be an album I should listen before dying? I get there are many different genres on the list (and that one of the main goals of listening to those albums is to enlarge our musical tastes and discover new stuff), but, is it really that good for people who like rap and hip-hop? Because this sounded really really bad. Maybe it's that I don't get what people find interesting on those things, but I'm fine with what I like, and, no thanks, I can say I tried those genres, but that's not for me. I'm not going to pretend I like it, this album is boring, tasteless and sometimes (if not many times - just look at some lyrics!) stupid.

What a surprisingly great album, so full of different sounds and originality. It's funny without losing its musical interest and experimentation. It's strange yet so enjoyable. And all of that with a great taste that makes of this album a fantastic musical experience.

Red Hot Chili Peppers is a band that, despite its popularity, is nothing really special nor amazing. This album is a good one, some tracks are really nice, but there is some filler there also. It would have benefited from being shorter... or more inspired at least. At least the last song ends the album in a great way.
