1001 Albums Summary

Norwegian rock, good!

I listened to a 2009 album called "Gotcha! Gotcha!" by the band Gotcha!. Apparently there's a 1993 album called "Gotcha! Gotcha! Gotcha!". Which one is it?

Nice finding! Good choice, dude!

By far the worst album in the user list so far. It's a mix of broken jazz (which is already broken by its nature) with bad Latin rhythms...

Troy Barnes, the man that is related to Barack Obama and Danny Glover.

Very good background music for work

I like how they tell stories and how each song is unique.

Live instrumental album

Not for me...

Compilation album = 1 star But I agree that Louis Armstrong should have been in the 1001 album list

It's good until it sounds like U2...

Tony Hawk Pro Skater fan detected!

3 secret tracks on a 21-min track... You're losing stars, bro...

It is like Linkin Park but good...

Great album!

If the 80s was one album, it would be this album. This should have made it to the list.

Contains auto-tunes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeTt4-0XH2U Trivia Mark Everett has expressed regret over allowing the song to be used in Road Trip, citing concerns about the album’s flow and artistic integrity. Despite this, the song remains a fan favorite and a testament to Eels’ versatility and creativity. WTF, Mark? Road Trip is an awesome movie. Goddamn right, it's a beautiful movie, uh-huh

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WNlcDdVwQc&t=10s It's you It's that shit stuck under my shoe It's that smell inside the van It's my bed sheet covered with sand Sittin' through a shitty band Gettin' dog shit on my hands Gettin' hassled by the man Wakin' up to an alarm Stickin' needles in your arm Pickin' up trash on the freeway Feelin' depressed every day Leaving without making a sound Pickin' my dog up at the pound Livin' in a tweeker pad Gettin' yelled at by my dad Sayin' I'm happy when I'm not Findin' roaches in the pot All these things I do They're waiting for you

Wtf is this shit...

My next door neighbour listens to The Sweater Song very loudly every morning, regardless if he likes it or not.

It's just a guy saying "mother fucker" and "bitch" for an hour

It is like the soundtrack of the most annoying video game you have never played

I think the idea here is that this album is very "avant-garde". Personally, I didn't enjoy it, but I can see why someone decided to add it to the list.

Repetitive and boring as hell...

I feel like the beat isn't enough smooth to be used as lounge background music and it's not energetic enough to be gym motivational music

Reminder to come back and listen to this album again

It's very low

They are good, but they abuse autotunes in an attempt to be funny. It just makes some songs annoying.

Nice finding!

Not garbage!

I have a policy of giving 1 star to live albums and greatest hits, but I definitely need to check out this band

Wtf

So, the last song just ends like that?

Is this what Icelandic people are listening to? How depressing...

Live album

I liked it, but I can't explain why...

I was listening to this album at work. I was so afraid the sound would leak.

To whomever indicate this album, you'll probably going to like Mad Caddies

It's weird that this album is from 1994 when the peak of emocore was probably around 2004/2005. It's a shame this genre died out...

Live album

This got to be one of the weirdest albums in this list... No idea why I liked it.

I lived in France in 2013/2014, it was absurd how much they thought "Formidable" was actually a good song. I guess a foreigner like me will never get it...

I had a dream last night where everyone was trying Subconsciously| knew it was a lie And when woke knew it was time to pray To make amends before the end, before my judgment day I looked around, I stood alone, I knew what had to say I said "lt's all my fault"

This was probably the soundtrack at the airport VIP lounge in Mexico in 1975

This is probably the soundtrack of a cat lady's life

I've always thought of Crash Test Dummies as a one-hit wonder. I always liked "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm" but I didn't know it's not even the best song in this album!

I have a policy of giving one star to live albums or greatest hits, as I find it unfair to studio albums. But this album is different because of music history. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottling_(concert_abuse) The audience, which consisted largely of bikers, was unusually hostile, and Iggy, as usual, fed on that hostility, soaked it up and gave it back and absorbed it all over again in an eerie, frightening symbiosis. "All right," he finally said, stopping a song in the middle, "you assholes wanta hear 'Louie, Louie,' we'll give you 'Louie, Louie.'" So the Stooges played a forty-five-minute version of "Louie Louie," including new lyrics improvised by the Pop on the spot consisting of "You can suck my ass / You biker faggot sissies," etc. By now the hatred in the room is one huge livid wave, and Iggy singles out one heckler who has been particularly abusive: "Listen, asshole, you heckle me one more time and I'm gonna come down there and kick your ass." "Fuck you, you little punk," responds the biker. So Iggy jumps off the stage, runs through the middle of the crowd, and the guy beats the shit out of him, ending the evening's musical festivities by sending the lead singer back to his motel room and a doctor. I walk into the dressing room, where I encounter the manager of the club offering to punch out anybody in the band who will take him on. The next day the bike gang, who call themselves the Scorpions, will phone WABX-FM and promise to kill Iggy and the Stooges if they play the Michigan Palace on Thursday night. They do (play, that is), and nobody gets killed, but Metallic K.O. is the only rock album I know where you can actually hear hurled beer bottles breaking against guitar strings.

Les Sheriffs is a very important punk band from France. I didn't know they were from Montpellier, awesome city. I have a policy of giving 1 star to live albums or greatest hits albums, as it is not fair to compare them to studio albums. I wish you had chosen a studio album.

Just a reminder, this is NOT Michael Jackson's dad. Cover from Goldfinger: https://open.spotify.com/track/6pM8nIWQSQczmxBHcNJtao

Every song is like the soundtrack of a boss battle from an RPG

Jesse Michaels: Vocals so whiny he could’ve been the fifth Teletubby—screaming about unity while ditching the band faster than a one-night stand. Tim "Lint" Armstrong: Guitar riffs as original as a thrift store T-shirt—ran off to Rancid to prove he could recycle the same three chords forever. Matt "McCall" Freeman: Basslines so basic he’s the human equivalent of a metronome—lucky he found Rancid to carry his talentless ass. Dave Mello: Drums like a toddler banging pots—left the scene to herd cows, probably the smartest move he ever made.

When I was living in France there was this guy at work, Xavier... Mogwai was his favorite band. Xavier was a nice dude. Anyway, I'll give it 3 stars because you brought back some memories... I'm not gay, shut up...

Hell yeah!

Sound asleep

I'm not an old lady, I don't have cats, therefore I find this album very boring.

Depressing at best

You can tell they put a put a lot of work on making every song unique.

I had mixed feelings about this album. I felt like either celebrating St Patrick's Day or storming a ship with my crew.

This is the Daft Punk album that should have been in the original list!

Live album

I think that this album should have been the one in the original list, however my personal favourite is Dude Ranch.

If you have never watched the video clip of "Stay"... Here it is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwRnW89EsxI You're welcome!

Sometimes I think you guys are just trolling...

You'll be listening to a live Daft Punk album without all the drugs required to actually enjoy the live show...

What's so special about a guy emulating 1950's songs in 2011...

Refused... by my ears...

For everyone being apologetic about not understanding Portuguese, don't worry. This album sucks even more if you understand the lyrics...

It's a mix of U2 with Coldplay... I hate both... And there's no orchestra...

It's a 3 stars album, but since you have a track of commentary you lost a star...

Psychedelic rock, I can't enjoy it without drugs...

Autotunes

It's ok when you're watching the movie...

Do you know when people mix their senses and they can hear colors and taste sounds? Synesthesia? Yeah that, this album gave me that! If you grew up in the 90s, this album will unlock good memories.

"Electronicore" that's a style I didn't know existed...

It's good to hear some rapping that actually has a message. This is the guy from Gorillaz, right?

This is like the lightest heavy metal meeting the softest hardcore...

Good early 2000s emocore album

I can only picture Eddie Vedder sitting on the toilet moaning "mmmehhh eeehhh"
