What’s wrong with wall to wall funk?

Look, I don’t dislike Elvis Costello. He’s perfectly fine. Listening to this album was a pleasant enough experience. He’s got some fun little songs. But why oh why are there FIVE more albums of his on this list?!? I know there’s worse stuff on here but plenty of good music was left off so we could listen to six full albums from Elvis Costello

I think like 90% of assumptions and dislike toward vegans comes solely from Moby. I know he’s become uncool but I still like him. The dude is kinda weird and very much in his own lane, but he’s still entertaining to me even when he’s annoying. Play is a pretty fun and interesting album too. I have no affinity toward whatever techno scene so him “selling out” means nothing to me. I can just enjoy the music for what it is

A few decent tracks in the vein of classic dad rock. The rest of the album is just ok. It’s kinda there. Not really doing anything. You don’t really need them

Johnny Cash was one of the most based musicians to ever live actually

A very middle of the road 2010s indie rock album. It tries doing a few different things but doesn’t do any of them particularly well so the whole album just ends up being pretty forgettable

Love to see a bit of variety on the list and some world music too. Call of the Valley is such a pleasant calming album

As a white man I can’t sing along to any of these songs

Always cool to discover a new band through this project. This is the kind of punk I enjoy. Fun, catchy, borderline silly

Paul Simon has much better albums. Hearts and Bones is ok but feels like leftovers from his better work

Kinda silly and a bit cringe, but I still enjoy it. Sometimes you just need dorky music

It’s called the blues but it makes me feel so good

Pretty chill for a rap album. Would probably weirdly work as background music while you’re doing something else

Yep, that sure was an album’s worth of reggae

Woot zoot, what a hoot!

I really don’t understand the overwhelming number of negative reviews for this album. The instrumentals are beautiful and Nico has an enchanting voice even if she isn’t the best singer out there. This kind of baroque chamber pop is really cool and there isn’t enough of it out there

I can see why this was influential. The production is very interesting and it is pretty aggressive in its sound and lyrics. But I still found it repetitive and kind of meh before too long. Punk is pretty hit or miss for me, and this one was a miss

Definitely the best country album I’ve gotten so far. Laid back and so pleasant

Not as good as Different Class but there’s no way it ever would have been. Still great. Pulp might just be my favorite britpop band

Wait a minute, this sounds like rock and or roll
