Rated 6/10

This was interesting and experimental, some songs worked others didn’t. Really glad I listened but would I listen again probably not.

I really like Muse. Seen them live twice, this is a really good album, love the singles, the rest of the songs are ok. I do prefer Absolution to this album, but as a muse fan I’d rate this 4 stars. Can see why it’s been removed from the newer editions of the book, as it’s not an album
I’d be telling people who have never heard of muse to go listen to, but my own personal preference is I really like this.

Been a big Nirvana fan since I was 14 and there greatest hits album came out in 2002. Love this album it was always getting 5 stars, the version of All Apologies is brilliant and so are the covers, In my opinion the man who sold the world is better than the original.

Rated 10/10

First time listening to this album, absolutely love it, the guitars sound so good throughout, maybe not as good as Daydream Nation but this is still a masterpiece. One of those albums I just had to replay after the first listen, and makes this project worthwhile finding these gems.

Rated 10/10

Hard to believe this album came out in 1983, sounds so much ahead of its time. Can see the influence it had on alternative rock bands.

Rated 6/10

My Dads favourite band, therefore Iv heard take it easy and peaceful easy feeling far to many times to enjoy them. Wasn’t as familiar with the other songs on the album, it’s not bad very easy listening.

Great band and great album. What a year 1991 was for music. This is one of the many great albums that came out that year, and over 30 years later it still sounds great. Great 90’s indie rock mixed with some 60’s. Given I’m Scottish this is maybe a biased voted but I believe this to be a solid 5 star album.

I really like different class, but this album didn’t do much for me, maybe needs a few more listens but nothing really stood out.

Very dark, very over the top , very shocking and very funny. I loved this when I was 12, probably more because I shouldn’t have been listening to it. Listening back you could say it’s not aged well, but is it anymore shocking than when it came out. Marshall Mathers is far superior but a great debut.

Rated 4/10

First time Iv heard of Germs, loud and in your face, can see the influence this album had on music I listened to as a teenager. Can’t say it’s an album I enjoy listening to now, but probably deserves its place on the list.

Never been Into elbow, so went into this expecting this to be a 2, but actually enjoyed this. Not sure if it’s one I’ll come back to, but deserves a 3.
