I genuinely like this. I liked it when it came out, and I like it now.
In a sea of extremely forgettable nu-metal bands, Korn managed to be interesting enough to stand out, and have a unique sound that still hasn't been duplicated (not sure anyone has tried to be fair).

This is a great album. Never boring or predictable, but still keeps the essence of the band clear. I kindda expected more brass though.

I expected to like this a lot more than I did. Mostly this was just a chore to get through.

Rated 6/10

I like this, but honestly there's a sense that they had 2 or 3 really solid tracks, and tried to improvise the rest of an album. First 2 tracks are solid, but then there's a huge dropoff until the end.

It would be hard to imagine an album I'd be less interested in listening to.
Not interesting enough to get a 1, but absolutely nothing justifies this being included on a list of 10000 albums, let alone 1000.

ImagineJohn Lennon

Rated 4/10

Meh. I know that htis is John Lennon, and that clearly everyone has agreed that this dude is a demi god, but it's just not very good.

This really should be a one, but the dudes at least know how to play instruments, so let's go for two. There's truly no reason to include this album on a list like this. Nothing these guys do have not been done better by other artists.

I'm not the target audience, but I am bored. This isn't bad by any metric, but it's extremely dull.

Live albums are not albums. It's memorabilia for die hard fans.
Nothing about this justifies the inclusion on a list of essential releases. The tracks are okay at best, and nothing is gained by having this recorded with a crowd.

Rated 4/10

One of the positive reviews mention her "raw and untrained voice" as something that makes the overall experience better. I could not agree less. The one thing I find interesting about her performance is that the lyrics have several rhymes that only work in a german accent.
