Rated 8/10
Most lyrics, even by the most amazing lyricists/poets, just completely pass me by. I mainly listen to music for melodies and rhythms.
But Neil makes me listen to what he has to say. Only maybe Joni Mitchell so far on my list has had this ability.
The music is cool as well but he is truly one of a kind and this was great.
Rated 6/10
Yes, cool! Will have to revisit sometime.
Rated 4/10
Just not interesting to me at all. Not bad sounding by any means though.
Rated 8/10
A classic!
Some super songs on here with some forgettable ones too.
It just really works.
Rated 4/10
Even trying to objective for a white supremacist, there's nothing in here I super enjoyed but there were a few songs that made me bob my head.
Rated 6/10
Yes, interesting music and beautifully produced.
Can't help think about the sort of person that would write about falling in love with a 14 year old though.
Rated 6/10
It Be OK, but nothing really grabbed hold of me apart from the monologue at the very end and Go!
Rated 6/10
Amazing musicianship to say the least.
No song really made me take notice and headbang as I thought they might.
Rated 8/10
I liked this a lot. Some of the best songs ever written combined with a bit of pleasant enough filler. A very strong 4 to my ears.
Rated 6/10
It was OK. I'm glad I listened to it because it's a privilege to listen to anything by Bowie but I probably won't deliberately listen to it all again (apart from a couple of songs).
Rated 6/10
It was OK. Big respect to Johnny for doing what he did playing at so many prisons.
Some songs were pretty cool but I feel like there will be better JC albums down the line.
Rated 6/10
Interesting - never really heard anything like this. But also not many big standout songs.
Great production!
Rated 4/10
Didn't click with me much though it's cool that Morrisey went with a much grittier sound.
Lots of lyrics complaining about people rightfully calling him out, yawn.
Rated 10/10
The generator is playing no games today. What an outstanding album this is!
Beautiful, minimalist song-writing and melodies. Heart-breaking lyrics. What's not to love?
Rated 10/10
I thought this was great! One of the albums that has really stood out to me that I wasn't very familiar with before (though I had heard the odd song before).
Songs are engaging and I love the drawing of other genres into their sound. This is not uncommon nowadays I guess but at the time I can see this would have sounded pretty neat!
Rated 10/10
Easiest 5 I have given so far.
Production levels are just unbelievable.
Then after 15 minutes or so you just get wall to wall banger. What's not to love?
Rated 6/10
Loved the production and the boldness of the lyrics. Lots to love in here in general and lots to get your teeth into.
However, there wasn't any song that screamed "listen to me" again but I'm kinda glad I got to listen to it at all.
This was interesting!
I had only heard of the one song but everything else sounded strangely timeless, if I couldn't hear the vocals, I would struggle to place this in the 90s.
What on Earth were those last two tracks?
Rated 4/10
Some of it sounds cool but I could not get into any song at all really!
Rated 8/10
I quite enjoyed this.
Guitar and mandolin work beautifully together with Rod's gravelly voice providing a pleasant foil.
Could do with more originals though!
