Achtung BabyU2

Rated 8/10

I pretty much hate U2 but I was surprised to find I liked most of this album.

Take Me ApartKelela

Rated 6/10

I get the feeling I would hear a song from this in a cool bar on a nice Sunday afternoon. I’d like if and make a point to listen to the album which I’d also like because it’s all that same song. Listened to half and realised I’d heard all this album has to offer.

Thought process while listening.

What a din.
Don’t know if I like it but.
Sonically some interesting ideas just a shame the can’t turn them into songs.
How long does this go on for?
Can’t wait to hear what’s next.
Are these lyrics I’m supposed to be hearing?
I bet people have killed while listening to this.
At least that one was short.
Jings, what’s next?
Jesus wept
And
Just laughing to myself

Certainly a challenging listen. Not my taste wouldn’t say it was good but also not the worst thing I’ve ever listened too.
Don’t think I’ll be listening again though.

Now off to recommend to others just for fun 😂

The ChronicDr. Dre

Rated 6/10

Was never the biggest fan of the Chronic and 33 years on my opinion is much the same Dre can’t rap but the beats slap. Undeniable classic but maybe not aged very wel

The good thing about 1001albumsgenerator is that you maybe start with the opinion that although you liked the Jam, you hated Paul Weller solo stuff, and just like that you get Wild Wood and your opinion is validated.
A competent album that neither moves or excites but simply floats over your head leaving you no better off for having listened to it

Now I really expected to hate this but it wasn’t nearly as bad as I expected.
So low expectations have given this an extra star
