Rated 6/10
The Doors have never been huge for me, but I do like the ways they featured keyboard/organ. This is not my favorite album from them, while there are some good tracks, Morrison Hotel is probably the one I would take if I had to pick one.
Rated 8/10
Great, easy to listen to album. Some of Van’s best.
Rated 6/10
One of their bluesier albums without a doubt. It's a good album, but I do find it a bit light.
Rated 4/10
Just hard to get into the synth pop for me.
Rated 6/10
I do enjoy jazz but some of this album is just very slow, almost too ethereal for me to stay with.
Rated 4/10
What to do with this album? Obviously a talented artist, albeit not really in my genre, but I respect the work. Then there’s the person who I usually try to separate out, but this is a bit of a special case. Terrible person or not it’s not an album I would likely return to, it is what it is.
Rated 8/10
Fun album, easy to listen to
Rated 6/10
Interesting little reggae album.
There is some great stuff here and some things that just kind of meandered along. Nice album with something for a variety of tastes.
Decent punk music
Rated 2/10
This had some appeal to middle school me. That’s about as far as it goes.
Rated 8/10
As someone who did not grow up listening to the Beatles this is my first time listening to an album of theirs end to end. I am genuinely impressed with the variety of style and genre this album seems to cross. The psychedelic rock on tracks like She’s So Heavy is great and it’s easy to see how other bands evolved from this sound. That said I didn’t love everything, still feel Come Together is one of the most wildly overrated tracks of all time. Overall a great listen.
Rated 10/10
Incredibly fun, can’t deny Eddie’s guitar, just easy to listen to hard rock. It’s ok to sit back and enjoy stuff like this, it doesn’t all have to be art rock.
Not much blues on here. Some good guitar stuff here and there and some songs I did like, but a lot of noise rock. The screaming…
Rated 2/10
I recognize this is emblematic of the genre, I just don’t care for the genre. Noise, shock, and bad lyrics. Cool when I was 15, not interesting 25 years later.
Rated 8/10
This is a good album, I just never got into Bruce. Maybe because it was overplayed so much when I was a kid, or it felt so much like music for another generation (even though I listen to a ton of stuff from the same era) I don't know how much I would go back to this album. Can't deny the songwriting and the great band though.
Rated 6/10
Did not know what to expect here, I’ll say I was pleasantly surprised by the album in general. Music is good, representative of the time and style. Lyrics are comically bad, hard to listen to on a few tracks. This is one that makes me wish I could rank in 1/2 star increments to go down to 2.5
Rated 6/10
It’s basic new wave punk. Middle of the road for me.
Rated 8/10
I think this is a great album, Muse is one of my favorite 2000's era bands. Not every track is great, but the album is driving start to finish, interesting mixes, and I do like the vocals.
Rated 8/10
Great album, so easy to listen to.
