I can understand the importance, but I can't feel the music; it sounded too bland for me. Maybe when I'm in a better mood, I should try again, but today, it's a 3-star album because of its historical influences.

It was fun and had good potential, but for some reason that I don't understand, they decided to record it in a bathroom with the whole band playing live and all the windows open. It made it a bit harder to have a good experience, so 2.5 is enough.

I should assume that I love punk rock when accompanied by a saxophone(?!)

From the Wikipedia article, I can see that this artist and album influenced many people that I like, but this is just another proof that sometimes it is better to stay away from (bad) influences.

Just another day with another British electronic album. Despite the length, at least this one has an upbeat that was enjoyable. I'm still harsh with electronic, even learning to respect it during this 1001 challenge, but this type of drum and bass looks like a good style for me.

It deserves one extra credit for sounding so outdated without necessarily sounding like Dad Rock. I enjoyed the upbeat style, and it is always fun to know bands from anywhere other than the US and UK, even singing in English. Sometimes, I doubted if I was listening to some kind of Kiss cover band.

So, this is what the revival of rock in the 2000s should sound like. Now I got it. 🙃

In my heart, I'm still a teenage rock fan, so it's almost impossible to me not to like it

It's far from the best album on this list, but it does not deserve one of the last positions in the global status rank. Yes, it's strange and sometimes annoying, but many other post-punk albums follow the same pattern here.

It was at its best when it somehow resembled Sex Pistols. Post-punk is better when the "post" part is ignored; that's interesting.

Honestly, it's not the best album I listened to, nor the greatest hip-hop of all time. But few albums go beyond their music, and this one is one example.

It's not exactly my preferred type of music and a bit lengthy, but it's not that bad. It's easy to enjoy its first 30 minutes and forget the rest.

I still don't like the person, but he knows exactly how to do music that I enjoy! Damm!

It's not groundbreaking or revolutionary, but I enjoyed this groovy and upbeat indie for today. It will probably go directly to the forgotten valley of my memory, but it deserves three stars for the fun 30 minutes.

As I learned to expect from a Tom Waits album, it's unexpected. It's hard to say if i liked it, but it of course crossed some boundaries and if I didn't lost the count, it's the last album from him that I'll got, so it deserved the 4 stars.

How can something have so much potential and be so annoying simultaneously?

The last (extra) song is almost good, but that's all.

Nice to listen to and enjoyable. I bet it was indeed important for Britpop, but in 2024, it sounds like any other Britpop we can get from Soptify's recommended playlists.

Sometimes, the old school sounds excellent instead of sound outdated.

I felt that I should have liked this album much more than I did. For some reason, it sounded a bit repetitive to me. Maybe I'll give it another chance on another day.

I like American music, and it's almost always enjoyable, but this album yelled "USA" so loud in my ears that it was too much for me.

One uber-single, which largely represents the 90s, rescues this collection of the worst songs of the 90s from the deepest place in cultural history.

It should be on the list of 1001 singles to listen to before dying, but not the whole album.

00:20 after the album starts: It starts with a Beatlesque with no novelty, but ok, it's good enough.

18:00: I am listening to the "Greenman," which has slightly changed my opinion; it's nicer.

19:00: Let me fav some of their other albums, just in case.

20:00: Is this the real life?®
