Excellent album, great sounds (organ is amazing.) Another amazing debut album on this list.

This is another, no doubt about it, 5 star album.

Yet I’d still choose to listen to Nirvana almost anytime.

This is terrible. Just absolutely terrible. Wanted to turn it off almost as soon as I turned it on. I cannot fathom why this album is on this list, at all.

Rated 10/10

If you want to say that this is Nirvana's best album, I won't argue with you. If you want to say it's their 3rd or 4th best, I probably wouldn't argue with you there either.

The album is amazing, a middle finger to the industry that made them a household name. Yet, despite Cobains best efforts, still managed to be an extremely successful album.

For many years, Nirvana was my favorite band, and when I get to listen to one of their albums again, I am reminded why.

Rated 8/10

Another really good album from Paul Simon. Different than other's hes'd done, the South African vibe is something a little off the wall. But it works, really well.

Was really happy to listen to this one again. Some great 90s alternative pop songs on here.

This album is squarely in my musical dead zone, from 2005-2015 I listened to almost no new music including this one. It's really good but a few of the songs were a little long and a little boring. Many of the songs could be on a soundtrack to any movie set in NY in the late 2000s

An 80s album that should've stayed there. No reason to listen to this, everything on here has been done better by other bands.

First half to 2/3s of the album really caught my attention. Which is hard when I can't understand the lyrics. However the last bit started to drag a little bit. It's a 3.5, but I'll round up to 4 just because I was so surprised by how much I liked the start of it.

I was not familiar with this album at all. And it also wasn't what I expected. But I found that I was really enjoying it, and will listen to it again!

This was the one Beatles album on the list I wasn't positive would get 5 stars at first. Then I listened to it again. And it's an EASY 5 star. Sure they song structure and lyrics are simplistic, especially compared to their other, later, works, but it's early 60s rock distilled into an album. And I need to listen to older Beatles more.

I have never listened to an entire Jane's Addiction album, only know them from the radio play they got. So the first half of this album was enjoyable, a few songs I knew and some similar songs. But the album had a second half which isn't great and is, in fact, quite boring. So it's fine in the aggregate.

I actually enjoyed this Byrds album for the most part. Not 100% of it. It sure was better than that awful country one they had. Probably won't go back to it anytime soon, but wasn't the worst thing I've heard.

I had never heard this album before. And it was fine. No need to put it on again anytime soon, and nothing offensive here, either. Just all around fine.

This was not my thing at all. Other than One, all the songs sound the same and are, frankly, boring. I just don't think I like metal (or more specificially, don't like Thrash metal) Oh, and the mix is terrible. Drums sound like shit and there is no bass at all.
