Another electronic album, but this time it's a little bit different from the other ones on this list.

The first song is a nice one and for it, the album deserves 2 stars for it, but it's just another simple electronic album. For me, it's very hard to note great qualities in this kind of music despite the classical albums (that is not the case of this).

At the same time that is very easy to listen to anything from "Beatles", it's very hard to evaluate it. This is not an absolutely perfect album, but almost everything that I had to listen to for my whole life had some influence on this kind of thing, so it's absolutely important for my life.

I'll finish with 4 starts and without a lot of comments to avoid any injustice. This is the (almost) first album from the band and they have some problems.

FaithGeorge Michael

Rated 3/10

I know that is my fault, but I don't like almost anything from George Michael. It sounds like a fake in some way that I can't explain. On another hand, listening to his whole album was a good experience. Nothing really changed in my opinion, but I can enjoy a little bit more when I get some of his songs in some random playlist now when I know that this is really not my kind of sound

Beautiful Freakeels

Rated 8/10

I don't even know how to name this music style? post-grunge? pop-punk?

However, this kind of music that remembers me of some rainy afternoon watching "How I Met Your Mother" and eating some pizza deserves some respect.

Opus DeiLaibach

Rated 6/10

This was a very interesting experience. This group has personality and it's different from the majority of the things that I used to listen to and even when compared with the common songs from this list, they have a very distinctive sound.

I understand some hate on it, based on the info from Wikipedia, cause they have some controversies in its history, but based only on the music aspects, this was a very nice experience.

This is pure music.

I liked it very much. After all the songs, I think that it is a little bit repetitive, but it's so awesome that even this drawback is something good!

Pink MoonNick Drake

Rated 8/10

I never listened to Nick Drake before and his voice is really powerful.

I really didn't get all the hype for this album, but I'm could see its importance during the last song when I realized that I was fully immersed in his voice.

A small piece of immersive art on this list! Great experience!

I really don't know how I never listened to this band before. It's exactly the kind of modern rock that I liked very much during my teenage years.

I can see a mixture of "Imagine Dragons" and "The Killers" that I'm sure that was a real hype in 2008, however, this is my first experience with "Elbow".

Well, even nothing makes sense, the album is just it. That kind of teenage alternative British rock that a lot of people (including me) loves for a period and forget when new songs and music types arrive in our lives.

I'm sure that is something that I will enjoy much more in my teenage years.

Classic metal with all the pros and cons of this loved music style. "I am the law" is an instant success.

This is not the best Dylan for me, but I should say that the Wikipedia article on the page helped me to understand a little bit more of the importance of this album. Being the "most" personal of Dylan's work, it's increasing my evaluation of it.

Musically, it's too much country for me, but it's still Bob Dylan and it counts!

Wow!

Sometimes, this project really surprises me with this kind of thing: An album and even an artist or band that I never heard about before and became a fan instantly.

The first song sounds a little bit ~strange~ but when I got the vibe for it, it's a great album with the right number of songs and an excellent set (more songs could be too much)

"Free Bird" is a real classic and I believe that this album could be much better for me some years ago.

Nowadays, I have more references and some little music knowledge to classify this album as a kind of repetitive classic rock and roll. Not a bad thing, but nothing special.

Celebrity SkinHole

Rated 8/10

It's so good to listen to an album that sounds like the band really enjoyed when it was recorded. I'm really not sure if they were really into it, but the album sounds like they were. "Hole" is a band that I knew very broadly and, because of the 2 albums on this list (until now) I'm on the way to becoming a fan

This was a very experimental experience. More than I was expecting when the first song started to play.

Personally, I didn't like it too much, but it's very easy to note the virtuosos in the instrumental part and I got why this kind of thing deserves to be on this list. These guys are real musicians and no one can say the contrary.

I'll keep my rate in 2 stars just because it's not exactly my kind of thing.
