It's far from perfection, but I liked it. Nice discovery that I'll probably forget soon.

Thanks for the 1 hour of background music that helps a bit in concentration. I can give it an extra star for this.

I started to listen to it right now. Now listening to the 4th song, I already know how to rate it with enough confidence. This mix of "traditional" British hip-hop and electronic music is far from my preferences. I respect who picked it for a gap in the original list, but are you sure about it? I'll finish my listening session, but I bet my rating will not change.

It's enjoyable, but I didn't find it anything special. I liked the songs with the Muse-like style more, but I'll hardly go to listen to more from the band.

I never thought about an album of samples (basically what it is). The concept is interesting, but the execution is not so enjoyable.

It started with a nice set and quickly became just a standard indie rock with no soul. Then "He lied about death" comes to save the album, although I still think it's missing something. Good album, but nothing great.

It's not perfect and put me in a bad mood at the end, but overall, I liked it much more than I had expected. It was a nice discovery (at least for most of the songs)

Even not exactly the type of music I enjoy every day, it's finally a user suggestion that shows something different and enjoyable in discovering (different and newish, but with strong bolds on some kind of traditional music). This is the type of thing that the original list really sticks to achieving, but fails in a myriad of repetitive, hidden British sea of indie albums. If I need to listen to more British albums, I'd be glad for more of this.

Pretty standard indie rock. It may be a good inclusion to the original list, but far from essential.

The author(s) of the book probably followed the list using this site, and finally, they found album No. 1002. It was a nice listening session, but I finished it with the complete feeling that it's an album that should be on the original list, for the good and the bad.

I liked almost everything I know that comes from Childish Gambino, so I for sure enjoyed it. However, despite the amazing variety and clever use of samples and instruments, this is not my favourite.

It's quite fun when I know that something on the list is highly influential everywhere in music. I can also somehow get it by listening to the album. However, when it reached the end, the only thing I can say still is: "mm..it's ok, nothing great, but fun".

It was a matter of time before TOOL appeared here. I have nothing against it, I even know some people who like it, and they (sometimes) are nice people.

I liked to listen to it, even though I didn't see anything truly remarkable.

It's enjoyable and very 2000-esque, but nothing much more.

I cannot say I love this kind of album, but it's always nice to discover the origins of my everyday "lo-fi girl study and chill" video, so I'll give it 4 stars.

It's ok at its best. I enjoyed listening to it, but I can surely leave it behind without problems.

Just another electronic album for the list. Maybe it's my fault since it's far from the type of music I enjoy listening to, but the only thing I liked here were the samples from old video games.

The original list and the user's list until now were missing some good ol' 90s hardcore, even better when it's also the prototype of emo-core. The problem here is that it's far from the best produced then. It's a nice album, but it's forgettable despite some novelty.

I bet it was awesome to watch it live, but listening to the record is an ok album. It was good to know about Joe Cocker.
