For me, Revolver and Sgt. Pepper's are the essential Beatles. This album is more famous for where it stands in the Beatles discography and the iconic album art.
Rated 6/10
*Very high highs and some others songs that are OK.
*The mid-tempo songs are not at all as good as the singles.
*I like the Ramones better but this is definitely a seminal punk record.
*Loses a point for it sounding pretty similar all the way through and I don't love Sid's vocals
Rated 6/10
*I'm all for non-conventional, psych-rock, alternative, etc. but this is a little too out there for me. This makes it feel slow at times and disjointed.
Rated 8/10
*Great mix of punk and prog- especially for its time.
*Probably because of those influences, I like this better than most metal bands. Same for me with how Black Sabbath is influenced by the blues.
*Very cool and funky beat to it, even if its slow at times.
*Baby's got Sauce and Blues Music were my highlights.
Rated 8/10
*Great fuzzy guitars and solid 80's rock sound
Rated 8/10
*A little different than I expected as the start of the B-52s but their unique sound has a good groove.
*Rock lobster is so good.
Rated 6/10
*Decent rap/hip hop album
*I appreciate that it doesn't have a bloated run time and the bass on several tracks is great.
Rated 8/10
*Great live recording
*Lots of great moments of guitar
*H20Gate is a fantastic blues/spoken word track
*The rest is a little too mellow and soulful for me to really enjoy- I needed a little more funk and faster tempo
*Still a very important record in history
Rated 6/10
*The singles are good, but don't necessarily all hold up like they did in 2002.
*Definitely a victim of excess tracks on CDs of the time
*Many tracks were too slow R&B for my taste
Rated 6/10
*Has some nice grooves but Feedback is very strange
Rated 6/10
*Ok but I just can't get into it
Rated 8/10
*Famous for its sampling, this is an essential hip hop album.
*Some cool blues rock
*I think I knew of Layla before but didn't realize it was by this band
*This is a looooong album that got to feel that way by the end
Rated 6/10
*I know this album is significant for its time in the alt-rock movement of the early 90s, but it seems to follow a similar pattern of many albums of this time period: A radio single very different from the rest of the album's content coupled with most other songs that are the band's "actual" sound. Nothing on this album is bad, but many of the tracks started to blend together for me over the course of my listening.
Rated 6/10
*It started off great with lots of jazz influenced sounds, but then got less interesting as the album went on.
Rated 6/10
*Very orchestral and had lots of interesting moments, but may have had too much going on at times.
