| I personally don't think so, like there is albums where I like every song but I don't feel like there was a few things that it could've done that could've made it better. Maybe experimented a little more etc. I'm not very good at discussing music, I apologize in advance. |

| if you just "like" them i don't think its a 10. not every song has a to be a 11/10 life-changing experience, if even the weaker songs add to the overall album strongly, that's what makes a 10. |
 Oh maybe, maybe it's the clothes we wear The tasteless bracelets and the dye in our hair Or maybe, maybe it's our nowhere towns or our nothing places But we're trash, you and me We're the litter on the breeze We're the lovers on the streets Just trash, me and you It's in everything we do It's in everything we do |
| Depends, like rating songs individually it's very hard to come across a record with all tracks being a perfect 10 or ones that you all like, so all the 5/5s I have given on Rateyourmusic are there not because I liked all the tracks but are there because of the overall product and the connection you can create with it. Karma by Pharoah Sanders as an example, the main reason I gave it a perfect score was due to The Creator Has A Master Plan, there is in no way Colors the 2nd track reaches the brilliance of that monstrous track yet it is a great closer, so in the end it mostly ends up with personal feelings being the things that makes a record a 10 to you. Tbh a lot of albums I end up liking all the tracks to end up being a 4.5/5 for me, they are just missing that one thing that would make it a personal record to me. |

| Generally, if I like every song on an album then it would be in the higher of the grading scale like an 8-10. What justifies an 10, however, is not based on enjoyment of the tracks but how it incorporates something grander, whether that themes or concepts that envelops the album as a whole ("In the Aeroplane over the Sea" and "Pet Sounds"). If not for the themes, then it would be atmosphere and musicianship I would be looking for ("Bitches Brew" and "Spiderland"). |
| I personally wouldn't say so. There are plenty of albums where I like and enjoy every song, but there's still at least one song where you would do something differently if you could. An unsatisfying drop, or a verse that was too short, stuff like that. For an album to be a 10 (to me) every song would have to be my taste and every song would have to be executed perfectly without me thinking "hm they could have done this differently" or "I would have liked that to be longer" but having criticisms doesn't mean you can't still enjoy the songs! |

| Liking isn't the same like giving it a personal masterpiece rating. But if I like a whole album it gets at least a personal good rating. |

| Definitely not. A masterpiece has to have more then just all bangers. It has to be cohesive, push the genre forward, Show growth from the artist, and have the replay ability factor |
| Here's a thought experiment for you: There's a 12 track album: every single song on the album is absolutely great and you give the album a 100/100. But then they release an updated version of this album with one extra bonus track that is so-so. Would that make the updated version less than 100/100? It is surely strictly superior since you don't have to listen to the extra track. Would a reviewer rate the second version as inferior? Could one actually improve the critical perception of an album by omitting some of the weaker tracks even though adding them would make it strictly superior from an objective standpoint? I think it probably works that way with most reviewers. |
