Arcade Fire is another band that I think I should know more than I do. I have heard this album before, and I listened to it again and still enjoyed it. I don't quite love it, but I like it a lot.

While I'm not really a Modonna fan, I can find stuff in her early work that I can enjoy and appreciate. This one could've been made by so many different people in the late 90s/early 2000s, it was just uninspired.

This was a chore to get through

There's something about a guitar player that plays with the amount of feeling that Santana does that makes it a joy to listen to. Even if I don't understand the words to the some of the songs (and some don't have lyrics at all!), I enjoy it.

This is probably my favorite standalone Eagles album. It's the first one where they sort of shed their country sound and go pure mainstream rock. Maybe a bit too safe or pop for some, but overall, I'm happy when most of the songs on this album come on. And sure, Hotel California has been overplayed, but it doesn't take away from the fact that it's overplayed because it's excellent.

I'm not a fan of this type of music, usually. But there is no denying the talent on this album, the wordplay of the artists, and the interplay of each of them. I shockingly, to me, really found myself enjoying it all the way through.

I enjoyed this album a lot. Some great songs on here that you'll know. A couple of songs that weren't my favorite but overall it was a really good album.

I don't like this one as much as The Queen is Dead. And since I gave that one a 4, I only have one place to go with this one.

I didn't like this nearly as much as I like the Steely Dan albums I've heard and have rated here. It was fine, but I don't see a time I would choose to listen to this over one of the better options.

It's just so boring. One or two songs got enough radio airplay that you can sort of remember them, but the rest of the album isn't exciting musically, lyrically, or vocally.

I got this in a VMP subscription on vinyl and I remember liking it a lot more than I expected to. On second listen, I started to really like it. It's obvious that it's not standard pop music of US/UK and I can't understand any of it, but it's interesting and that's good enough for me.

Such a great album. This is one that I revist often and will continue to do so. Noisy, lo-fi, punk-ish, and great.

For probably the second time in this challenge, I had to listen to an album almost immediately after finishing it. I had no idea that some of these songs were the same person let alone on the same album. I think, with more listening, that this one could seriously become a 5 for me, but it's not quite there yet.

It's an eclectic collection of songs, but it somehow all works.

Started off and I hated it. Then for a song or two I thought, oh this isn't too bad. Then I started to dislike it again. It's just too dated. Not for me.

This has been my favorite Radiohead album so far. But I still only sort of liked some of it. Some of it I really didn't like, too.

I like some of the songs a lot. But I don't love the album as a whole. It's fine, some of the songs I'll add to a playlist but I don't see listening to the whole thing again anytime soon.

It's a Queen album. Which means there are 2-4 great songs that fit on a Greatest Hits album and the rest of the album is tough to get through.

Some sonically interesting things on this album that made listening on headphone interesting. But interesting doesn't always equal fun or good.

Started off strong but sort of trailed towards the end. It's fine. Not sure what I was supposed to get out of this that wasn't done by a lot of other albums on the list.

Very good noise pop album. Ethereal and engagning.

I got through it fine. Soundtrack to some 60s romantic comedy. Nothing I would ever pick to listen to again though.
