Pretty terrible. Not a fan of Syd Barrett. 1.5/5

The album starts really great. The upbeat songs are really fun. Just not suburb quality end to end. 3/5

Never quite understood the appeal of Primal Scream. It is all just so average. 2.5/5

The best JM album we have listened to yet. Maybe it was closer to the bridge from her singer songerwriter days to her more jazzy days. 3.5/5

I have owned this album for a very long time, but this was the first time I had listened all the way through. While I did find it an enjoyable listen, I am not sure I put it on a pedestal the same way that critics seem to have in the past. 3.5/5

Guilty pleasure of mine...kind of love the pop metal sound. Foolin, Photograph, absolute bangers. 3.5/5

Love the Cocteau Twins. The Dreamcore/Shoegaze sound is one that always seems to resonate with me. This album is pretty solid throughout, and has one of my alltime favs (title track). 4.5/5

An amazing album. While not my first intro into punk (that would be Smash) this definitely set off a long standing love affair with pop punk and bands with the Lookout sound. Tre Cool has to be on the of the best drummers in the business, and the songs all have such amazing pop sensibilities. 5/5

Most of it was complete garbage...but the songs had the quality that at times I found myself muttering aloud "breakin the law....breakin the laaawww". 1.5/5

Decent...I don't love Aerosmith but enjoy some of the highlights on this album...Sweet Emotion, Walk this Way, absolute classics. 3/5

Better than I anticipated...the fast and more upbeat songs resonated with me far more than the slow downs. Still not likely to be anything I would really listen to again. 2.5/5

Started out decent but lost my interest throughout the listen. In the end I felt it was just average. 2/5

The Beach Boys were probably my first popular music love. Amazing stuff. Brian Wilson's harmonys were incredible...such a savant. This album has some great tunes, but is just kept off the highest marks line. 4.5/5

What a great album. Sometimes I wish the songs were a bit longer, but it definitely is a great listen front to back. 4.5/5

Maybe the worst Beastie's album. Very juvenile in humor and appeal. 1.5/5

Surprised on how terrible this album was...there was nothing appealing about it. 1/5

I don't like jazzy Joni Mitchell as well as singer-songwriter style, but it is decent. 2.5/5

I love Indie from this era (formative music for me) but have never been able to really love Grizzly Bear. Decent stuff but just doesn't grab me the way other similar artists do. 3.5/5

Typical Wu Tang...which isn't a terrible thing. 3/5

Had never previously heard or heard of them, but found it be moderate Brit pop Oasis rip offs. No single song seemed all that memorable. 3/5
