The ChronicDr. Dre

Rated 6/10

Unsurprisingly the production on this album is great. I think it gets a little bit reparative in the end. It stills good one.

Another one that I have to assume the author wants everyone to listen to only to make sure we all know this album is complete trash.

Somehow this is over an hour long. Each song has one idea that is then somehow stretched to 4 minutes each.

I really wanted to enjoy this album, and I’m still convinced at some point it’ll click and I’ll get more into it. But just not there after this listen.

Rated 2/10

Kinda fascinated about what this album is trying to do. Is it meant to be scary? Intense? Badass?

Sounds like an angry dog barking over the sloppiest metal head garage band rehearsal of all time.

Kinda made me laugh in a few places, is that what they were going for?

It’s got to be 1 star. But I am glad I have listened to it.

Feels like an unbelievable cynical cash in on ok computer.

Really good, and not heard it before. Heavy Beatles vibes, but there’s some other stuff going on here that’s pretty unique

I feel like the divine comedy were really popular with an extremely specific half/quarter generation. I kinda enjoy some of their stuff but I’m not going to decide to listen to it on my own.

It’s not a ground breaking take to say Leonard cohen is a hell of a song writer, and something I kinda knew already. But somehow I’d not listened to this.

Absolute game changer, now on the short list for my favourite albums of all time. It’s also sent me on a Leonard Cohen binge. But nothing so far has matched this.

Actually an album you need to hear before you die.

I haven’t listen to this since I was 13 which I think is the best age to listen to this.

If I was being a bit harsh it would be 3 stars but gets an extra one because it’s also one of my dad’s favourite albums and I remember it being one of the very first albums I listened to.

The opposite problem that I have with queen albums. They need more songs where they’re taking themselves less seriously.

Such a good songwriter but it feels like Paul needs someone with him telling him it needs to be weirder while he’s doing it. A few great songs but I can’t imagine I’ll come back to it.
