Good old cockney rock n roll.

In recent years Iv really come to really appreciate and love Sonic Youth. This is their double album masterpiece. Takes a while to appreciate but once you do it will become an all time favourite.

Never heard of Mercury Rev before sound slot like the flaming lips, good album just didn’t wow me

I really don’t like the streets, but can appreciate this was an important 00’s album so it gets more than 1 star

As a big arcade fire fan I played this a lot when it first came out, but to be honest since suburbs I have only listened to this a handful of times apart from the main hits (no cars go, my body is a cage). Was really good to listen back to this it really is a great album, but just doesn’t quite match up to Funeral or Suburbs, and I would probably rank reflector above it too. But that’s just my personal opinion, great band great album just not their masterpiece, maybe harsh but a solid 4 star album.

Such a shame Win Butler turned out to be a sex pest.

Yes these are the albums that make this project worth while.

Iv never heard of Fela Kuti before, this is the best African album Iv heard and one of the best live albums. You just can’t help but dance to these songs, the energy is brilliant. And ginger baker on the drums just tops this off, a live album masterpiece.

Good trio hop rap album 💿

This was a real wow album for me. One of the things I love about this generator as I would never bother to listen to this otherwise.

I’d never clicked with LC before listening to this today. The whole vibe and themes of life and death given his own circumstances when he made this album just work, and his distinct vocals just fit with the atmosphere of the album.

An absolutely beautiful masterpiece that you should listen to before you die. It’s the least you can do given Leonard put the effort in to create this masterpiece just before he died.

Soild 90’s west cost rap. The messages on racism and police brutality are still relevant in 2022, sadly the misogynist view of women certainly hasn’t aged well and makes a lot of the songs hard to listen to.

Is it possible for an album to be too smooth? If so this is an example of one, so smooth I kinda forgot I was listening almost a forgettable album,

Never heard of Todd Rundgen before this starts out nice pop record. Intro then breaks into the second part of the record, it’s gets a tiny bit more interesting after that, part 3 gets even better. Enjoyed the change up in this album but overall found it a bit long. Glad Iv listened and agree with should be on the list but wouldn’t make my regular rotation, so this just misses out on 4 stars.

Grew up with my parents playing Queens greatest hits to death. But this is the first time Iv actually listened to this album in full. was surprised how diverse it was, good mix of metal, prog rock and pop. With a few absolute classics best friend and obviously bohemian rapsidy.
The car song is a bit stupid but rest of the album really holds up.

First time listening to any wu tang clan solo albums. Though I do remember the method man from the know your roles song he did for The Rock, and his his appearance on ready to die.

I’m not a huge hip hop fan but do have some time for some of the really good stuff. This would fall into that category, real good dark vibe to the beats, and great flow, deserves to be on this list.

This is some real good old heavy rock. Only heard ace of spades off this before which is a total classic. This album and Motörhead clearly influenced a lot of thrash metal that would follow. Really good album did come close to full stars but some of the lyrics so just let it down from being a true masterpiece.

80’s rubbish, maybe being harsh but not my thing. Take on me saves the album getting a 1.

This is a good album. Enjoy the folk rock and the harmonies But don’t know something just isn’t there that makes me want to add to my rotation. For that reason it misses out on the 4 stars.

Experimental techno this was certainly interesting and different , glad I listen but not sure I’ll rush back.

Love this album. Such a great sound and atmosphere to this album up there with my all time’s favourites. Absolute masterpiece up there with the greatest debut albums.

Don’t think I’ve ever listened to eels before. Enjoyed this really good 90’s alternative rock, good variations through out the album gets it’s the 4 stars.

Wouldn’t normally listen to Taylor swift but you really can’t fault this as a brilliant pop album. Just misses out on five stars due to my personal taste im not rushing to listen to this again , and maybe unfairly feels it’s To fresh to pass the all time classics tests to put it at the same level as say Thriller.
