Reading the wiki on this album is far more enjoyable than actually listening to it.

The first song gives you hope for maybe hearing something unique or interesting, but it ends up just being this dude shouting in British for the rest of the record.

Absolute ass. Way too much repetition. Very bad production.

Some very chill beats, but the songs get a bit same-y after a while.

Songs are decent, but I really don’t get why she gets so much praise. It’s not like she arranged the songs and everything.

The first song sounds like surf rock, the second song is practically black metal. Then the rest of the songs are just so forgettable and generic.

Only a single memorable hook on the whole album. Seems like they’re too preoccupied with the harmonies to actually write interesting melody.

Totally bloated. The good songs are all diluted by forgettable ones. The singer has great clean vocals and amazing screams, but instead chooses to sing in this zone between the two that just comes out as nasally and is very difficult to take seriously.

One of the few albums that truly feels like a complete experience. It’s not just a collection of songs like so many others. The production is top-notch, and there’s a great variety of sounds and tones.

Great energy, but all the songs end up blending together.

A marked improvement from the previous album. This one actually sounds like it was recorded by musicians and professionals, and features sone actually memorable tunes. Still comes off as generic and doesn’t really feel like it has an identity.

Very sloppy performance and production. No memorable songs. At least there’s a nice energy behind it.

About as brutal as you can get before you start to weird the normies out. Every instrument is tight as hell, with the performances aided by the snappy production. Vocals are also killer.

Nice variety of tones and tempos, with lyrics that draw you in. Makes me excited to listen to more Dylan

Great chill-out album, but not so great in most other contexts

I get that it’s a double album, but I don’t get why it had to be 2 1-hour+ albums, instead of 2 45-minute albums. It just goes on too long. Great and not so great songs on both discs.

They really put their worst foot forward with this one. The first few tracks are very generic blues rock, but the rest of the songs are nice, folksy tunes that work a lot better. Still way too long.

Despite featuring my 2 favorite Doors songs, this album as a whole really doesn’t hit like their debut album. Still excellent.

Pretty generic rock, absolutely lacking any hook or edge.

Bowie is such a good frontman. The way he sings and the words he chooses all the listener to get a real feel for his intelligence and charisma just by hearing him. That said, this album does leave you wanting a bit more variety in tone and instrumentation.
