Starts with the best song on the album and then it's pot luck what style you'll get. Lots of it is forgettable. 2.5/5. Raising to 3.

Not for me. Not sure why this made the list. 2/5.

Knew the name of the band, the lead singer and the lad Baz that joins later? Anyway I was expecting something more dancey since they are so associated with ecstasy. 1.5/5. Raising to 2.

Not much more to add based on previous review. 2.5/5. Raising to 3.

It's nice. Had to research the significance. We're so saturated with this style to date that it's hard to put this and its innovations in the context of the time. 3.5/5. Raising to 4.

It's a great album. 33min runtime, keeps momentum, interesting concept album and all round nice country record. 4/5.

Enjoyed it. Interesting background too. 3.5/5. Raising to 4.

No reason to be on the list. Garbage. 1/5.

It's good. Superstition being the obvious highlight. Some ok songs mixed in with 2-3 stronger ones. 3.5/5. Raising to 4.

Feel lucky not that I started with Debut. If this is the first Björk album the generator gives you then it gets better. Some interestin/challenging stuff here. 3/5.

Has it's ups and downs. Liked it for the most part. 3/5.

Didnt need two Everything But The Girl albums. The best song is a cover. It's elevator/on-hold music. 2/5.

Nice album. No idea why it's on the list though. Most recognisable song is a cover. 3/5.

1989 so it's definitely a precursor to nu metal. Not for me. 2/5.

Dime a dozen album. If not for the democratisation of music production in the late 90s/ early 00s we probably don't get albums like this. Would we be worse off? The quivering vocal is painful. 2/5.

Less than 30mins and some amazing songwriting. 4/5.

What the hell did I just listen to? It's like it jumps from The Cure to Pet Shop Boys. Truly awful stuff. 1.5/5. Raising to 2.

Woody Guthrie was a talented lyricist. Billy and Wilco just show that you need the music to back those up. 2/5.

It's a blues album with Riders on the Storm at the end. Did I need to listen to it after the previous two? I don't think so. It's very well produced but Rather listen to Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters. 3/5.

This Ian guy sounds great. The album was ok. Hit and miss. 2.5/5. Raising to 3.
