Orbital
1/5
When an album starts out with a track that repeats ‘where time becomes a loop’ for nearly TWO MINUTES, you know you’re in for a banger of an album 🙄. Hot garbage.

Absolute hot garbage. I have no fuckin idea why you ‘need’ to listen to this album before you die other than to realize music this bad does indeed, actually exist.

Slipknot
5/5
I remember hearing Eyeless on the radio for the first time in the truck with my cousin and asking him if the drummer had 10 arms..close he said, six. My love affair with the band began that day and has continued since.

Dear Prudence is one of, if not my favorite song ever. There’s quite a bit of filler spaced throughout but I believe if you got rid of the fillers and kept the bangers down to one disc it’d probably be the greatest album of all time. As it stands, it’s merely an incredibly great album.

I received a notification a couple of weeks ago that I had rated my 900th album of 1001. I have never skipped an album or song no matter how bad it’s been. I’ve listened to German noise, spoken word, foreign language, mediocre British pop and everything else. I did not think the streak would be broken and by Springsteen nonetheless. This is like how 4th album on the list, he is incredibly boring and sucks and I saw it had a run time of nearly 1 hour and 20 minutes and I noped the fuck out.
