Quite liked this. Not the greatest metal album I've heard but it was punchy and fun. A decent time.

Quite a fun relisten. Not a great deal to say but it's a very solid album.

This really icked me for some reason. Not a fan at all.

Really fun punk album. Had been meaning to listen to it for a while. Will be returning to it.

Perfectly alright. Nothing too crazy but it was enjoyable. Unlikely to revisit.

Slightly disappointing to be honest. Really wanted to like it as I have enjoyed the odd police track in past, but I just couldn't dig it. Drumming was impressive though.

Thought this was really fun. Lot a stuff I wasn't as keen on, but some of the tracks are really smooth. The ones produced by William Orbit especially so.

An album by a band I've never heard before, which is a first for the list! This was very pleasant. Didn't blow me away but it was cool.

Absolutely class. One of the best prog records going. Such an epic sound.

Gave the relisten a miss as I'd respun it very recently. Grand record. About as weird as 60s gets. Not zappa best but pretty damn good.

Liked this a lot more then when I last heard it. The electric side is really ace.

Super cool. The second disc has always been my favorite, but it's all in all a very solid no-nonsense record.

They'll never make me like you, Oasis.

It blows listening to this, becuase I really want to love it more than I do. Not that it's bad, its proficient and I really like a couple of the tracks, but a lot of it isn't for me.

DNF. This is was pretty tired. Some songs were tolerable, it's not the most offensive record ever, but it's just boring and predictable. Nothing was keeping me intrested.

I think this albums greatest sin is that it's ultimately surpassed by the other Big Beat bands of the time. There's nothing that drives me to Fatboy Slim that I wouldn't be able to find in a prodigy or chemical brothers record. That being said, it has its moment, and Acid 8000 is a phenomenally fun track.

Really wanted to like this, and some moments are genuinely well done, but there's also a lot of 90s pomp here that I can't get behind. That puts it firmly in middle ground for me.

Honestly shocked I'd not heard an Elvis album before. Pretty solid but not entirely for me.

Tom Waits' stuff is a guaranteed intresting time. This grabbed me less that some of his later stuff I've heard, but was a fun listen nontheless.

After a bit of deliberation, I have decided i'm not going to be re-listening to the black album. I'm not really overly fond of Metallica at the best of times these days, and the black album is kind of a culmination of the issues I have with them. That being said, it's a reasonably fine album, and I can't knock it entirely just because it's fallen out of favor with me. Used to mess with it back in the day.
