Rated 4/10
I didn't love the first Primal Scream album I listened to, and I liked this one less. I don't understand why this is on the list, outside of a small pocket of people in the UK, who is listening to this?
Rated 10/10
This is my favorite Wilco album and it's great. I listened to this album a ton when it came out and it's stayed in heavy rotation since then.
It's got a great blend of diferrent musical styles. Simple yet compelling, and great studio work. This is just a great album.
Rated 10/10
This might be my favorite Neil Young album I've heard. I like the raw and emotional sound and the blues licks. Really great stuff.
Rated 6/10
It's fine. Beats are fine. I could see a time where I would listen to this again, in the right circumstance and right frame of mind. But not going to be added to heavy rotation.
Rated 8/10
I quite enjoyed this one. Of course you can't escape Don't You Want Me, but the rest of it I liked a lot as well. Heavy synth-pop that I found myself bobbing my head and tapping my toe to. Would listen to this one again.
Rated 6/10
It has two great songs. And the rest is very very meh. I want to rate this a 2.5 but I guess I'll bump to 3 just because I like Season of the Witch so much.
Rated 8/10
Maybe not quite as good as Aja (my favorite Steely Dan album) but still a very good album with great insturmentation, jazz and pop hooks, and a few songs that are quite catchy!
Rated 4/10
This wasn't for me. A little too much Ramblin I guess. I can see how he would go on to influnce artists that I do like, so that's good. But I can never see putting this one on again.
Rated 10/10
It's very good. There are certain singers/artists that are just special and Mould is one of them. Sure, it's early 90s alt distilled into a single album, but there's nothing wrong with that, that sound the crunchy then jangly guitars, the severe overdubs, etc, are all part of the charm.
Also I hear a lot of influences for more popular music (espcially early Foo Fighters) on this album. Sort of how you can tell how much The Pixies influenced Nirvana, I feel Grohl must have had this album on repeat when he was creating writing.
Rated 10/10
I wish I could give this one 6 stars.
There are few albums in my life more important to me or why I like and listen to the music I do. Ever since I heard this album in high school (20+ years ago), where it blew my mind, I have been chasing that same feeling. I'm don't think I even try to listen to all 1001 albums if it wasn't for hearing this one.
The DKs mix punk and hardcore with lyrics that are funny with a powerful message. It's everything I like in music.
Rated 6/10
Fine? It was fine. Disco isn't really my thing, but the good songs on this album are super catchy and I understand why I hear them at every wedding I go to.
Rated 10/10
People think that Costello has too many albums on this list, and that might be true. But his first three albums are all deserving and should be on the list. This is an easy 5 star.
Rated 10/10
I have no idea why I'm drawn so much to this album, but I just am. It's 80s synth-pop at it's best, with some banger singles. I've listened to this album countless times and will continue to do so.
Rated 6/10
This isn't as strong as his other albums on this list, but even while not being as strong, it still has a few songs on it that are really good. I won't have any problem putting this album in on an easy listening playlist.
Rated 8/10
I didn't know what to expect since I had never listened to this album before. But I quite enjoyed it. I liked different types of guitar Jeff Beck brought to this album, psychadelic, blues, surf, and straight up 60s rock. Good stuff, I'll keep this one in rotation.
Rated 10/10
This is a great album. Have listened to it many times and will continue to do so. I always go back and forth between if I like this one or Slanted and Enchanted better.
Rated 10/10
I love Frank Black/Black Francis/Pixies/etc. While his solo stuff is a little more hit and miss compared to some of the Pixies pre-breakup albums, this is probably my favorite of his solo albums and I really love it.
Rated 6/10
This is a very good album, but not one I can listen to often. If I'm in the perfect mood, it's good to put on, but I just can't rate something very high if it's not something that I'm happy whenever it comes on.
Rated 4/10
It's pretty and haunting. And I can't see ever listening to this again.
Rated 10/10
This is pretty much perfect/peak blues. I can't think of a blues album I like more than this one.
