Did I like some of this? Yes. Did I like all of this? No. Did I sigh, roll my eyes at times? Yes. Did I actively hate Mind Garden? Yes.

Love this LP, Have since 1994. An easy 5

Not good, not bad, not for me, not gonna listen again, not sure why I needed to hear it.

No, just no

This put me in such a chill state, really liked it.

Not the album for a cold wet December morning in Scotland.
Nice though

If I never hear another Grateful Dead album before I die I will be tremendously grateful

Like The Doors but from Temu

Automatic For The People by R.E.M.
A truly great L.P. and an easy 5 ⭐️. I was 15 or 16 when this was released and my friends and I listened to it a lot as well as other LPs by the band.
I tried to ignore the fact that I know I love this LP and the band and listen with fresh ears, I still love this LP. Although it does hit differently as I approach 50, far more melancholic than I remember.
I have so many memories attached to this record and it is truly a masterpiece.

It’s like Bowie and Beyoncé birthed a big beautiful bouncing baby but better and it’s brilliant.

Loved it

Thoroughly nice LP if ever so slightly bland, if it were ice cream it would be vanilla, pizza it would be Margherita and crisps it would be ready salted.

Just not very good,

Now, did I like this more than I expected or hate it less than expected.
Not my bag but not terrible. Reminiscent of BodyCount, don’t like them either

American pie is a banger and consequently I think the rest of the LP suffers. I like Maclean’s voice and the songs are good but the rest struggle to match the title track

A few of PE best songs on an ok LP

Well, I wasn’t a Radiohead fan before listening to this and I sure as hell am not one after listening to it either.

wirklich verdammt gut

I know this is good but not for me. It does also sound to samey musically.
Good not great

Let’s be honest here, I like OutKast but they have 4 better albums than this. It’s not bad, in fact I enjoy the majority of it.
Big Boi’s speakerboxxx is the better of the two solo albums but it’s Andre 3000 who has the bigger song cause if you don’t know OutKast from Ms. Jackson you sure as hell know them from Hey Ya.
I’d probably give this 7 out of 10 so I’ll round up to a 4 out of 5 but I do think this is OutKast’s weakest LP…. Idlewild doesn’t count.
Also truly a double LP with this essentially two solo albums but it’s tooooooooooo long.

A strange one this, managing to both love and be extremely bored by it, sometimes within the same song.
My overall feeling though is that I liked it
