I quite enjoyed this. I had never heard to The Zutons, but they surprised me. A few weaker tracks in the middle, but over all enjoyable. 3.5/5

This wasn't bad. Reminded me of Joe Walsh singing. Nothing really stand out to me. 2.5/5

I wasn't a big fan of this one. It wasn't bad, but the vocals got to me a few times and I just wanted to shut it off. The music itself just wasn't really my thing either. 2.5/5

This was pretty good. Usually live albums are hit or miss, but this was one of the good ones. Good performance and a good collection of songs. I'm not exactly itching for more, but I enjoyed this. 4/5

It's Simon & Garfunkel... Pretty ok. Mrs. Robinson was really the only standout song and the rest were meh at best. 2/5

It started off decently, but "Black Money" made me realize how little I could really understand the vocals. The singing style and the mix made them blend in with the rest of the music and everything was just dull. From them on, it was a struggle to find the will to finish the album. 1/5

This was OK. Most of the time these "singer-songwriter" types can't really sing, but she actually can. It's easy listening, just a bit boring. Not really my thing, but good enough to earn a 3/5.

Old school daft punk. Not the best, but definitely some bangers on here. Still greatly prefer the Alive live album with some of these songs mashed up with others, but still an over all good--though somewhat repetitive--album. 4/5

This brings back some memories and it's better than I remember. Such a good debut album. 5/5

This album was better than I remember. I played it repeatedly throughout the weekend and feel like it is a much more cohesive record than Nevermind was. This gets a rare 5/5 from me

It was fine. Pretty repetitive, but ok to listen to. 2.5/5

This album is described as having "never found its audience." Well, it still hasn't because it's not me. The guy has a good voice, but I just didn't enjoy this. 1.5/5

I don't think I cared for this as much as the last Stooges album I heard on this list. It wasn't all bad, but "We Will Fall" was rough and I ended up skipping half of it. 2.5/5

Ok album. I don't know if it was a reverb or chorus effect on the vocals, but it was distracting and made everything seem muffled a bit. 3/5

I've only hear some of Bowie's hits before, but this album has definitely made me want to hear more. There were a few songs that were sub-par, but over all this was great. I guess there's a reason he's held is such high regard. 4.5/5

I liked pretty much the entire album with the exception of "Mother," that was just rough. 4/5

I never got the hype around this band and I still don't. I avoided it when I was younger because "Clint Eastwood" was overplayed and didn't do anything for me and now that I've listened to the whole thing, I feel like that was still the right decision. It's pretty much Blur with some rap sprinkled throughout and just boring. Not my thing and I don't get what grabs people. 2/5

Chill latin music which threw me off as the description said this was a French group. It was ok, but not something I'll likely return to. 2.5/5

Considering this is a Nick Cave creation (the guy who is behind The Birthday Party and their trash heap of an album Junkyard), there were some actually decent songs on this. None of it was good enough to make me a fan of him or their work. I'm hesitant to give this a 2 based on his other work, but this might actually deserve that. 2/5

Maps was the only decent song on this album. It wasn't as bad as some of the albums on this list, but definitely not great. 2/5
