633/1089 - Very laidback. Not a fan of his country-esque voice but the guitarwork is cool. Between a 3 and a 4 on this one.

632/1089 - It's some alright country music, not much to say. Some songs are a bit similar to each other.

631/1089 - Very intelligent guitar playing. Some cool songs and interesting takes on standards.

630/1089 - Sometimes seeing what made it into this book gives me a huge confidence boost about my own music.

629/1089 - I knew them best for September before this. Very cool blend of RnB, Soul, Jazz, and great grooves.

628/1089 - Quirky and energetic.

627/1089 - It's decent hard rock with a bit of funk sometimes.

626/1089 - "Neil Young used very unorthodox techniques for the vocals on this album. Before he sang his first (and only) take on each song, he would eat a habanero and have the studio engineers attach a vice grip to his testicles to achieve that signature whine."

625/1089 - It's shitty dime-a-dozen punk music and it isn't even an album. Why is this on the list?

623/1089 - Before listening: "Oh no, another blues rock band... and the reviewers seem to dislike it too."

After listening: wtf this was great. It's pretty different from the other blues albums. It's a lot more abrasive and texturally creative. I remember why I stopped reading reviews on this website: my general difference of opinion to the website and all the popular reviews either being moral grandstanding or that one unfunny sex-pest.

622/1089 - All the people complaining about nu-metal. The singer beatboxed a bullet away from it's path! This guy's a hero for crying out loud!!

621/1089 - It was cool and he's a very talented singer. Unfortunately a lot of the songs had similar structures and harmonic devices which dampened the listening experience for me.

620/1089 - White Lines is what I know from them and is a cool song but it isn't on this album. Overall it was pretty alright. I think I like samples better when I'm ignorant on what's being sampled.

619/1089 - It's some decent garage + a little psych. Not sure why it's on the list.

618/1089 - I can see myself returning to this. Overall a pleasant listen with some great duets. Coin toss between a 3 and 4.

617/1089 - A lot of this style of music makes me want to listen to the original style it was likely based off of. In this case MJ and Jamiroquai.

616/1089 - It's music

615/1089 - Damn, this might be better than Midnight Mauraders! Really great production and rhymes.

614/1089 - Wasn't huge on the other two on this list but this one had some catchy songs and a nice distorted grittiness to the sound. High 3 low 4 for me and definitely my favorite White Stripes album from the list.

613/1089 - This is perfectly fine electronic music. A lot more sonically interesting than the Let's Get Killed from a bit ago but not as tight form-wise as stuff like Screamadelica or the Pet Shop Boys albums.
