1001 Albums Summary

Yep! Just wish it went on a bit longer. But its post punk at its best.

Would she go down on you in a theater?

Sarah Cracknell, Pete Wiggs and Bob Stanley. What a legendary trio and everything they've ever touched is brilliant. This might be my favourite Saint Etienne album. Think it's been 4 years now since i saw them in Leamington doing their Foxbase Alpha tour. What a brilliant concert. Played this album from start to finish. It has the perfect balance of different genres. There's a bit of trip hop, dub, "britpop" (before it existed as a term) and electronic/dance/house. Also, it's got the best cover ever; Only love can break your heart. Fun fact: the girl featured on the album cover (not a part of the band) can also be seen in Pulps video for their song Babies. Oh, and if you haven't already, check out at least these albums by this very same band: So Tough, Sound Of Water, Tiger Bay and Good Humor.

Listen to those lyrics.

Hot take: this is a tad bit overrated. Much prefer Revolver, Sgt Peppers and Rubber Soul.

Yeah man.

No, Three.

Yes!

Holes alone is a 5.

The most beautiful 28 minutes ever recorded.

Can't go wrong with Fats. It's funny how its close to impossible to navigate through his album during the 50/60's. All named similar and with his wonderful face on the album covers.

Hell yeah! What, last song already?!

Old school hip hop perfection.

I wont jump on the bandwagon and bash Oasis here, but Supergrass were criminally underrated and deserved just as much hype as the top 4 britpop bands. This is a gem.

Depressingly beautiful.

Devastating and depressing in the best possible way.

The queen of indie and everything cool.

This sure as hell sent me to Heaven rather than Las Vegas.

5555

Up there with Parliament/Funkadelic as the best funk.

Dark. Great lyrics.

Groooooovy. Loving it. Best enjoyed with headphones.

Hopeful sadness.

This album deserves more attention than it gets. A masterpiece.

Good ol' Scotty.

This is fucking my ears in the best way possible. The Reid brothers. Legends.

They're shit these days. Were they shit at this time of period as well? Is this rating based on nostalgia only? Perhaps. But i quite like it.

Pixies frontman. Pretty decent.

Seriously, what a joyful ride this was. Loved everything about it. Could hardly not dance to it.

Correct me if I'm wrong but this is one of the greatest album ever recorded.

All time classic.

intense and straight forward straight edge hardcore with all the elements for hardcore punk fans.

Pop perfection.

What a lovely drunkard. Such grooves.

Hell yea!

Groundbreaking concept album that blends glam rock with a futuristic narrative. The album's mix of theatricality and musical innovation cements its place as a timeless classic in rock history. However, it's not my favourite Bowie album. That's probably Low or Station to Station. Still, a high 4.

generic, innit

This is a bold and eclectic masterpiece that pushes the boundaries of rock and pop. S psychedelic journey, weaving together diverse musical styles and surreal soundscapes, showcasing Rundgren's experimental genius. It's just so unpredictable that i have to give it full marks.

this might be updated from a 3 eventually
