Mu, what are some albums that you would consider true 5/10s?

Not offensively bad but just uninteresting and forgettable

I'm trying to rank some of the albums I hear and I'm having trouble setting baseline for a 5.

Here's a pretty recent example

Close, but it's actually a 5.5/10. Maybe a 6/10.
>>
>>74866673
Objectively I'd say it's meat n potatoes and uninteresting
>>
>>74866276
basically most albums

>>74866326
Sad, but I agree to be completely honest

Most FOTW albums that never get mentioned again

Anything by The Cars.

The Cars have some good individual songs but their albums are just 'ok.'
>>
>>74866654
Yeah but would you consider 5 or so great songs surrounded by duds as a 5/10?
Usually a 5/10 for me is 1-3 listenable songs and the rest is trash.
>>
Mainstream pop albums would be good for this.

Most aren't that great but it's usually at least fine as background noise.
>>
>>74866982
It hurts my heart to agree with you. I have never been impressed by an album front to back. Each has a few fucking incredible tracks ... the rest are skip worthy.

Has a few hits but overall just bland.

Also anything by Big Star. Those albums are snooze cruise but I couldn't pick you out a single "bad" song.

5/10 is par for me. Very few albums overall make it to 6, 7, and above.

Most albums in existence occupy somewhere from a 2(excessively bad) to a four (offensively bad).

Apathy gets a 1/10 because if music isn't stimulating me then it might as well not exist in the first place.

Your rating systems don't make sense to me.

The original comment I was going to type was that nobody ultimately cares about someone else's ratings system and that asking everyone for 5/10's is fundamentally stupid due to self-imposed rating systems, but decided against it.

Perhaps I ought not have bothered.
>>
>>74868361
I disagree with this one, it's not up to the level of their first 4 albums but I think it's still above average in general.

Ok ok, when you put it in that perspective.
I was rating it against 77, MSAB, Fear of Music, Remain In Light and True Stories.
I'd bump to at least 6.5
But I stand by this being a 5.
