When the album started I think that I was listening to something similar to "Body Count" mixing hip-hop and Hardrock. This is not the best thing in the world, but is pretty cool and I like this type of mix.

Along the rest of the album, this changed a lot...what is it exactly? "Water" is an experimental hip-hop song?

Even not understand all the album, I liked it. It's a good experience that could be shorter, but it's cool enough to deserve another chance someday and even other albums from the band.

Wow.

That was a very good surprise. A lot of mixed rock styles, some of them looking like 60's classics and also some kind of grunge (?) at the end of the '90s.

They are not the best in any of these styles and besides some songs, they are not memorable, however, the album looks like a real walk through song style and all very well played.

Nothing much more to say. but "Supergrass" will be included in my songs research for the future.

This is the kind of music that deserves 5 stars just because of its existence.

It's not the best Jazz album that I listened to here on this list, but that has very good songs with some meaning. The Wikipedia article here is essential to understand the album.

I already listen to about Nick Cave, but I never got the hype on his work and never understood why he is so appreciated.

From now on, this album made my mind and I got everything. It's so strong and powerful that I understood exactly all the hype around. I'll keep my radar open for Nick Cave now and I'll also recommend it to everyone.

The second part of the album is a little bit repetitive and too much longer for a perfect record, but the first part compensates for any possible "error".

Everyone needs some kind of 80's flashback songs some days during the year. Ok, this album is just it.

"Ok computer" is so much different than any other Radiohead album that I know. This kind of difference makes sense to how extent this album is famous and recognizes as a great one. It really is a great album besides any comparison with the rest of Radiohead discography.

I liked it, but it's too much generic.

Before starting this project I just know one or two of Cohen's songs and know that he was considered a great songwriter.

Listening to his songs gave me the opportunity to truly start to like his work. English is not my main language so I'm not able to get all from his songs, however with this second album listened to on this list I start to get why he is so important.

One or two more albums and I'll be a real fan. :-)

If this album is some kind of lo-fi post-punk on purpose, I really didn't get it.

To me, it looks like bad songs with the worst recording process. "Jesus and a Mary chain" looks better on paper than in the real world.

It's very impressive to listen to this album and how it sounds so new. All songs and lyrics still make sense today like when it was released.

Punk is still great in the past and today.

It's very interesting to know this different and (at the same time) comfortable new type of song. I believe that it opened my eyes to a whole new world, but it's a world that I already know very well and this is wonderful.

This album has great potential, but more than 1 hour of electronic music is always the worst scenario for me.

"call the police" is a very nice song.

This is the third "Kinks" on this list and I believe that I'm turning into a fan.

This album is a little bit repetitive, but is impossible to think about any modern hip-hop and don't think about Run DMC, so, it deserves his place on this list.

That's interesting to know this album and nowadays it's absolutely obvious their influence on modern rock songs.

However, listening to it today, I can't see so many qualities in these songs. They are nice to listen to, but nothing more.

It's very cool to see some true reggae songs here on this list and Peter Tosh deserves his place.

This is not a perfect album and it's kind of repetitive.

This is the definition of a hidden gem! It sounds so fresh and modern, but also nostalgic in some way. If anyone says to me that this album was recorded yesterday and proposes a "flashback" style, I'll totally believe.

For me, the last songs are not so good, but the album itself is a very nice discovery!

This is a lost jewel for me. I've already listen to something about "Earth, Wind & Fire" but I was sure not expecting this album.

Great Friday album!

The best Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young that I've seen on this list until now. This is not absolutely perfect for me, but it's a kind of rock n' roll that I like very much. Rock, Country, and Blues at the exact level.

Ok, I've already listened to many songs from Dylan and I always liked them. Using this list, I noted how much he is important for the music industry and for the music evolution in the last decades, even don't find anything perfect for me from his discography yet.

This album is by far the best one until now. A little bit long for my taste, but a great piece of songwriting with great music.
