May 13, 2017This was sublime. It's lush, beautiful and a full-on emotional journey. I loved every second and keep going back for more. Gorgeous album. An absolute legend in the making is young Styles.
-
May 13, 2017A great quality album! I love how its a mixture of slow, fun and a little bit of loud tracks on it, definitely worth to listen. I will definitelplaying this record alot!
-
May 13, 2017Nice album. It was hyped a lot so I expected a bit more. I would've liked if he had gone pop-rock instead as his voice would've been better with it. Hopefully he'll improve more & more with time
-
May 13, 2017Harry Styles album is amazing takes you on a roller coaster of emotions. It's great for all ages I am 51 years old and love it and my 25 year old loves it and my 16 year old loves it. I wish I could hear more on the radio because nowadays you only hear the same stuff and it gets tiring. It's magnificent . Outstanding it it's a Grammy worthy album.

May 13, 2017I've been waiting for this album for a long time and I'm really disappointed. It's really boring and his voice is too much altered. He cant sing high notes yet he does. He should stop it. Ah this album should be called "plagiarism"
-
May 13, 2017If you think this is 'generic' and 'unoriginal' then you really need to expand your knowledge of music. Anyone rating it a 0 has had their ears plagued by the radio. Don't hate on something you don't understand. It's your problem; it's not on him sister.
-
May 13, 2017The quality of the album is absolutely astounding. It is very different from the generic pop music that's everywhere nowadays. It has been praised not only by prestigious media outlets, but rock legends themselves which says a lot about his talent and the album itself.

May 13, 2017I was expecting something better after the hype he got. I am disappointed. His single was boring but I thought his album will be better. However, it was not the case. He tries to hard to be like Mick Jagger and it shows. I won't be listening to this again.

May 13, 2017The best album Ive heard in a long time. His eclectic mix is refreshing, honest and raw. Every track resonates and his vocals are next to none. Well done Harry. A masterpiece.

May 13, 2017I noticed how some people are calling the album 'generic' , do they even listen to music that are on the radio right now? because this album is far from generic. it's influence is clear all throughout the album yet it comes off as original and not many people can do that so hats off to Styles for pulling this off. Expecting great things in the future.

May 13, 2017Anyone calling this 'ünoriginal' is honestly just being bitter because this album is anything but that. It's a breath of fresh air amongst the over-played songs that are on the radio right now. Really great job by Styles. Looking forward to what he has in store for the future

May 13, 2017Dissapointed. Even though I like the Style he was going for his album was boring and didjt live up the hype. I've never been a 1D fan so this the first time I heard his voice and it's sounds average at best. Totally a waste of money
-
May 13, 2017Best album of this year for sure. I knew harry would do well and go for the artist route instead of the boring radio songs route! Most 1d ex-members can't relate!
-
May 13, 2017It seems like he listened to old music from all the legends and he tried to make an album out of what he heard. Feels more like a tribute album than something to show who he actually is as an artist. Very boring and faceless!
-
May 13, 2017Amazing! The best debut album from an artist in ages. He's doing great and i'm proud of how Harry sounds like he's not doing this because of sales, but because that's what he loves.
-
May 13, 2017classic rock nostalgia. That's how I felt listening to this album. This is everything and more the music industry has been needing I'm glad he decided to do what he wanted to do despite others and he ended up absolutely killing it. Love it.

May 13, 2017From a heartbreaking song like From The Dining Table to a full on rock n roll song like Kiwi, this album is and will be the best album of the century. I wouldn't even be surprised if Harry will be nominated for a Grammy next year. This album gives out so many emotions (happiness, sadness, angst, jealousy and excitement. I absolutely love this album and I can't stop listening to it!
-
May 13, 2017i can not believe I have waited for this over hyped trash and spent my hard earned money on this bland try hard 70s rock.... Bleh!! I want my money back......
-
May 13, 2017This is a very diluted shadow of 70's rock. Its total lack luster and originality is epitome of blandness and unauthentic. A worst album of this year..
-
May 13, 2017Ever since all the 1D boys gone solo. I was very intrigued as to what this guy has to offer... Since he is the only one who is getting so much hyped up and given promotion. But sadly I have spent my money on a very generic and copycat cat album. I am extremely disappointed!!
-
May 13, 2017Harry Styles music is so bland and so much plagiarized from yonder days. There's Zero originality and uniqueness to this album. Massive disappointment
-
May 13, 2017Absolutely shocked at how good this album was. I've been looking forward to Harry's solo stuff ever since he stood out to me among his previous band mates, and I'm happy to report that he has fulfilled all my expectations and more. THIS is exactly what music these days has been missing. Collapse
-
May 13, 2017
-
May 13, 2017Absolutely amazing album! I'm so amazed by how he branched away from the usual pop generic music and created this album. He has definitely fulfilled my expectations as a solo artist. From the lyrics to the vocals he totally did it for me. Looking forward to whatever he has to put out in the future!
-
May 13, 2017Unexpectedly very good album.. Harry did great job with it.. Very different from the mediocre music we are having these days.. Really great job
My favorite tracks are Carolina, two ghost, sign times of the times, sweet creature and meet me in the hallway -
May 13, 2017what is this harry?? i expectted so much from 'the frontman of 1D'.Not even 1 song makes me feel like yeah i've heard something unique. All songs are mediocore.The music sounds familiar. He should make his own music and stop recreating the music that already exists.sorry harry this album failed to impress me

May 13, 2017I honestly thought Harry's music was pretty boring which is a shame because I love Harry. Hopefully his next album it going to be better. Too robotic for me.
-
May 13, 2017I really wanted to like harry's album i thought it was going to be different something special like they described it but its not my style and i like rock music

May 13, 2017Amazing, as always.
Harry Styles, is an direct icon, making everyone swoon, all other the world.
Such a, sick, sick debut album.
This guy is going somewhere. -
May 12, 2017
-
May 12, 2017Completely boring, lifeless, and slow. This isn't rock music at all, and I expected much better. Not only that, but half the songs are complete rip-offs of classic songs released in the 70s and 80s.
-
May 12, 2017It's boring as hell thank god it was only 10 song god only knows what would happened to me if it was more...i felt i aged 15 years listening to it is THAT bad...i won't even recommend it to am enemy....love yourself and save your time in something worth...if there's a mark less than a 0 it would be given to this album....
-
May 12, 2017Wonderful album, a different sound. Harry is doing well in this new phase!
He's doing the kind of music I like, has tracks like "Only Angel" that appeals to the taste buds of rock fans, but also features tracks like "Sweet Criature", "Ever Since New York" and "From The Dining Table" Which will surely appeal to folk / alternative fans. -
May 12, 2017Was excited for this album but man I gotta say very disappointed. I wanted some originality. I will not compare his album to his former band member because both are different genre. My review is only based on what he has brought to the album and i personally expected more since I was excited for his album the most.
-
May 12, 2017Woman and From the Dining Table are my favorites but there honestly isn't a bad song on here. A very solid solo debut. The fact that it has so many zeroes right now is a joke lol. Could Zayn Malik fans be any more transparent?
-
May 12, 2017
-
May 12, 2017I think this album will change a lot of preconceived opinions on Harry. He put out something really exciting and authentic. There's nothing out there right now like this. I've had it on repeat since it was released, I genuinely enjoy every single song.
-
May 12, 2017
-
May 12, 2017Sounds like any other 1d album. Listened to few bits of it...didn't like it all. Two Ghosts is an exception but other than that..meh. Very unoriginal.
-
May 12, 2017How refreshing to see a young male solo act go against the typical music on the radio these days. The lyrics, production, and vocals are all extremely impressive. The album is at its most brilliant when heard as a whole and in the order Styles intended. It's truly an experience and a timeless piece of work. Bravo, Harry.
-
May 12, 2017an amazing, original, and eclectic surprise of an album. i was captivated through the slow, haunting ballads, to the powerful and energetic tunes. the songs fit so well together to create a brilliantly timeless album that i can't get enough of
-
May 12, 2017
-
May 12, 2017i hope this album makes people finally stop dismissing a man with genuine talent just because he was in a boyband. he's talented, he's got so much to say and the way he goes about it can only be classed as absolute elegance. it's a masterpiece.
-
May 12, 2017Not gonna lie but I haven't heard an album like this in years. It's incredibly eclectic I love the different sounds, I love his voice, his music is so damn good please give it a try and you will not regret it
-
May 12, 2017I never expected to like an indie/rock album. Here I am.
Kiwi is just so good. I know some people might not want to give it a try because he was on a boyband, but it's good. -
May 12, 2017This album saved 2017. There isn't a single bad song on it. 100% the best way is to listen to it all the way through. Take 40 minutes to change your life.
-
May 12, 2017Damn boy... you couldve done something so cliche for an ex-boyband member but this....this is a masterpiece. major respect to you for doing something that is at the same time nostaligc but also hugely different. looks good on you kid, keep it up! looking forward to more
-
May 12, 2017O álbum é incrível, muito bem produzido e ele provou que não é só um ex boybander e sim um artista de verdade que deve ser levado a sério. Eu estou realmente impressionada e espero que as pessoas possam ter a oportunidade de conhecer o trabalho do rapaz sem qualquer tipo de preconceito.

May 12, 2017El álbum es excelente. Harry escogió 10 excelentes canciones para mostrarle al mundo que es una persona inteligente y vulnerable. Su talento jamas se verá opacado por los antis. Él ama su trabajo y se nota cuando escuchas el resultado.
Ademas de ser una persona trabajadora y con mucho talento, es alguien humilde y lleno de amor por sus fans. Harry tendrá el existo que merece. -
May 12, 2017
-
May 12, 2017Absolutely shocked at how bad is Harry's debut album. It still sounds like One Direction but with Harry only vocals which can't be a good as he was not the best singer of the band. He always needed Liam and Zayn's support.
-
May 12, 2017Novo príncipe do Rock, felizmente. Deixem esse preconceito lixo com ex-boyband de lado e ouçam o hinário que tá maravilhoso. Two Ghosts, Only Angel e Sign of the Times melhores faixas da nova bíblia do rock.
-
May 12, 2017I wish Harry's album was as good as Zayn's. I am kinda disappointed, he should have stayed in One Direction. Harry's album lack originality and good vocals, it feels like he is trying too hard to be Bowie.
-
May 12, 2017It is amazing, it shows us Harry's style which we really didn't get to see in One Direction. I am proud of him, he worked really hard, and I personally really enjoy this album. He has done an amazing job.
-
May 12, 2017This album reminds me of Beck Morning Phase, so of course it is good. I feel like the lead single is a little bit far from the others tracks, but as a whole the album is amazing.
-
May 12, 2017this album was boring and it honestly felt pretentious.I tried to give it a listen bc of the hype around it but it definitely does not live up to it. disappointing.
-
May 12, 2017while listening to this album I felt like listening to a compilation of covers of sole other old songs. there is nothing original about this album. plus, the lyrics are bad, some of them really made me cringe (e.g. kiwi). for me, as of now, Harry is just a copycat. he has nothing to say and he has yet to find what he wants to be as an artist.
-
May 12, 2017
-
May 12, 2017Masterpiece. Extremely talented lad. It was a very brave move to put this record out. He could've gone for the old EDM/rnb route, just like all the boy-band members do, but he decided to really step his game up. I respect that.
-
May 12, 2017Some Z stans are just so childish and rude. It makes me sick. This album is soo good. I'm 100% sure that they didn't even listen the album. Horrible people. Just bitter!

May 12, 2017I give him credit for at least attempting to be different. However, going against the popular norm does not automatically equal good music. I could tolerate only one song, the rest I hated, thus a score of 1. Comparisons to Fleetwood Mac and Bowie are not only exaggerated but disrespectful. Never a One Direction fan, but I honestly expected way more given the hype from Rolling Stone etc.
-
May 12, 2017Harry Styles self titled album has surpassed my expectations. I was skeptical on the sound he was going but upon hearing Sign Of The Times, I knew this album will be worth the hype. I am excited for what the future holds for him as a solo artist!
-
May 12, 2017Absolutely amazing! Superb songwriting, outstanding vocals. Just a pleasure to listen to! Thank you Harry Styles for bringing back real music! Every single song is great. My favorite is Two Ghosts for very personal reasons, it speaks to me. This whole album will become a classic, it's a masterpiece!

May 12, 2017he did an awesome job!! i am really proud and I am pretty sure that he is going to win a lot of awards with his album, after all he is a rock & rock poet sex god
-
May 12, 2017This album is definitely worth the hype. Each song shows off Styles's truly stunning vocals. An entire variety of genres and styles (!) are shown throughout the entire album, ranging from indie to funk to true rock 'n' roll. There's definitely a song for everyone. Definitely will have this album on repeat for the next few months.
-
May 12, 2017The album is extremely diverse in regards to genre. It shows how Harry Styles's insane vocal range. It'll be interesting to see where he goes in the future because he is playing rock music that is at the top of the charts in comparison to what is currently on the radio now.
-
May 12, 2017this album is positively amazing. it has personal, heart throbbing lyrics that just make you so upset but so amazed by his writing and singing skills. each song has its own meaning, so proud of you H. xx
-
May 12, 2017such a boring album, nothing special.. david bowie rip off.. the only good song is "the signs of the times" , i expected a lot from harry as he was the main guy from 1D but i am disappointed

May 12, 2017Pisa menos rei do rock, já não bastava ser rei do pop, melhor debut do ano com toda a certeza e a pisada no Zayn foi forte como sempre né mores. 10/10
-
May 12, 2017This Album by Harry Styles is everything he promised us and so much more! As he promised, it is a Rock N Roll kind of album - and a great one at that! There is a nice mix of a few upbeat songs and a few slower ones. Everything from fun to serious is covered.

May 12, 2017We get to witness the brilliant mind of Harry Styles. He's an incredible writer and artist. The personal journey he takes you on is a spiritual experience. He's brave in putting out something that's not mainstream at the moment, but with this album that will soon change.
-
May 12, 2017I was born in the 70s and grew up to these kinds of music so listening to Mr. Styles album is both nostalgic and refreshing. It's like being transported to another time....a pleasant time. I appreciate what Mr. Styles is trying to do and I hope he succeeds.
