TOOL is one of my favorite bands but apart from a couple songs, too many of the songs were just way too long. They needed to cut the length of some of them down. The interludes as well are not good, However some songs on here mainly being 7empest and Pneuma are among some of the best songs TOOL have ever produced
Best Track: Pneuma
Worst: All the Interludes lowkey
Probably one of the best produced albums of all time, the songwriting is the apex of the Beatles creativity. 10 years of buildup brought to a terrific climax of the most famous band in history
Best Track: Octopus's Garden
Worst Track: None
Either this or GKMC is my favorite hip hop album of all time, in a way they are eerily similar but the influence of Illmatic cannot be understated with just how far and wide it changed the game on debut albums and hip hop albums in general, EVERY second feels earned not a single minute or second wasted, everything feels so well put together, every beat is distinct yet thematically similar.
Best Track: Life's A Bitch
Worst Track: None (Maybe One Time if I had to pick)
I feel like I could listen to this album anywhere
Best Track: Wish You Were Here
Worst Track: None
Probably The greatest concept album I've ever experienced. The flow on this album is fantastic, Really feeling like one cohesive work it manages to pull in so many styles and instruments to make a very ethereal experience.
Best Track: Money or Time
Worst Track: On The Run
Would be a 10 if it had bass
Best Track: One
Worst Track: Shortest Straw (if I had to choose)
Just so consistently great from front to back
Best Track: Paranoid Android
Worst Track: Subterranean Homesick Alien
Fade to Black is probably Metallica's greatest song if One didn't exist. Just absolutely masterful
Best Track: Fade to Black
Worst Track: Escape
This one pains not to put as a 10/10 but that fuckin Paul McCartney track dude. Some of the best production and vocal performances of all time, what more do I need to say. I lowkey think Thriller might be my favorite song of all time, I've been listening to it since I was 10 years old and that funky ass bass line in there, it still boggles my mind how they made that so perfect like nothing about the title track should ever be changed it is perfect in my mind
Best Track: Thriller

Solid electro dance pop album, I wish I saw the mastery that fantano heard in his listen but this doesn't scream greatest of the decade to me in my opinion. Great album though
Best Track: Sympathy is a knife or Club classics
Worst Track: B2b
Some of the greatest riffs I have ever heard. Even Lars sounds good on this album. This album just simply fuckin rules, there's a reason this has the legacy it has and it's because it's inventive, powerful, and kicks ass for 54 minutes straight. Every song on here is masterful
Best Track: Disposable Heroes
Worst Track: None
It's better than TPAB in my opinion. I like how personal this album feels in comparison to TPAB. Not to knock on TPAB but I just don't know what to say completely about it yet. As for this album it is probably my favorite hip hop album with some of the best beats and inventive and fun production on a hip hop album that I have ever heard I love every single moment of this album and it need not be a second shorter.
Best Track: Money Trees
Worst Track: Real
One of the most creative and mind boggling albums I have ever heard. These songs feel like they were toiled over hours on end and it's all the better for it. All the weird time signatures make the songs and the album as a whole feel like one large machine. It's just absolutely astounding how well put together all the arrangements are.
Best Track: Lateralus or Parabola
Worst: None
Quite possibly one of the most iconic albums ever and it holds up for great reason. Kurt was such a masterful songwriter and knew just how much emotion and care he could fit into a single song without it feeling melodramatic
Best Songs: All of them; Mainly Come as You Are
Worst: None
Perfect album through and through, I think it's marginally better than Nevermind. The overall roughness and grated production by Steve Albini (r.i.p.) on this album just suits Nirvana's grunge and punk style so much better.
Best song: Either Heart-Shaped Box or All Apologies.
Worst track: Probably Tourette's or Radio Friendly Unit Shifter if I had to pick one
