Rated 6/10
It's fine I suppose. I liked the hits on here and nothing stood out as bad or boring. Don't really see why Elvis Costello deserves 6 placements on this list though.

Not my favorite Bowie album. Not that much of a fan of Bowie's piano ballads and a lot of the acoustic songs here. Changes and Life on Mars are also far from my favorite hit singles of his. The album does end pretty good with Andy Warhol, Queen Bitch and the Bewley Brothers though. Overall not too impressed. Ziggy is a better rocker and more commercially successful, The Man Who Sold the World was a stronger album as well, and anything he did after is way more impressive to me.
Rated 6/10
Balances out somewhere in the middle. There's some really cool tracks on here, but they are balanced out by the number of similar sounding forgettable tracks and downright uninteresting one. Doesn't justify its runtime too well.
Rated 10/10
Really fun to try and recognise as many of the samples as you can. I really like this album, but it's not the Beastie Boys album I keep coming back to. Lots of great music on here though.
Rated 8/10
This was much more R&B-leaning than I expected a Kanye album to be. Kind of glad that this is the first Kanye album I listened, I feel like I learned quite a bit about the man and his upstart on here. I liked a lot of the songs but I wasn't really wowed by them.
Rated 10/10
One of the best driving albums, and that’s the exact scenario I listened in. The first five tracks are all high points for me. The organ and guitar go so crazy that it’s almost demonic.
Rated 10/10
Every track on this is a joy. Sanitarium and Disposable Heroes are my favorites, but I like them all.
Rated 8/10
Rap legends. Always nice to hear how well they do the vocal interplay between them and finish each others sentences. I don't like it as much as raising hell and it really feels primitive at times but a good album nonetheless.
Rated 8/10
I liked it a lot more than my previous listen of this. The songs are really varied and the samples must be quite obscure since I didn't recognise many of them. Really liked the bass in lots of parts. Did fall off at the end though.
Rated 8/10
Quite a good listen. Liked a bunch of songs here.
Rated 4/10
The umpteenth synthpop album on here. This one had a bit more aggressive synth drums than others, but still not wholly memorable or worthy of being on the list.
Rated 6/10
You can really hear how it influenced later 2010's and 2020's pop. Very interesting blend of electronica and alt pop. Does really fall off in the second half though. Doesn't really do enough to keep interest for me.
Rated 10/10
No idea how people call this album boring. There's a lot of variety in there. Really liked this one, big fan of this Jazzy Hip Hop in general.
Rated 6/10
Edgy as fuck brooooo. Bit too noisy for my taste but quite an important album.
Rated 8/10
Really enjoyed this one. Soft singing with all sorts of weird instrumentation. Really liked the string parts in the background. Quite a haunting sounding album. First track was my favorite.
Rated 8/10
It feels a bit too polished for a Stooges album, almost more power pop esque. The raw outbursts of Fun House made way for tighter songs.
Rated 10/10
Might be my favorite Zeppelin album. Contains more acoustic tracks than pretty much any other Led Zep album, but I think they’re at their strongest here. Gallows Pole, Tangerine and Hats off to Roy Harper are all great songs.
Rated 4/10
Really forgettable listen. Nothing blatantly offensive but not much to make me turn back.
Rated 6/10
Very quaint and peaceful record. Feels like a really solid more bubblegum-pop esque album. Not really my cup of tea though.
Rated 8/10
Really like a lot of the songs on here, but it falls off in the second part IMO. The quiet parts on songs like Soma are way too quiet, to the point where you can’t hear anything in the car. I wish it had more hard rocking tracks.
