Fantastic! Never heard the album before but I've heard My Chemical Romance before. This is now a favorite of mine. Instant love. Thanks to the submitter! The whole album is really great. Love many of the songs but the ones that standout the most are: Dead!, Welcome to the Black Parade, Famous Last Words, Teenagers, The Sharpest Lives, I Don't Love You, Cancer, Mama, Disenchanted Just so much good on this album. Might be one of my favorites of the user submissions. 4.5

I NEVER give an album I've heard heard of a perfect 5/5 score. I won't for this one either, but damn I am close! I REALLY enjoyed this one. At fifty-seven years of age, I always thought I'd mellow out.... but, I want to hear more from this band and if the rest is similar to this one - I'll be really happy! Seven Fifty-seven I may never go to heaven! But, at least I got to hear this before I die... Standouts: Mememe, Hollywood Baby, 757, Billy Knows Jamie, One Million Dollars.... ever song! All great. 4.75

Brings back a lot of memories! 5/5

Love it. It is a bit depressing but really wonderful.

Most either love them or hate them.... I'm indifferent. Standouts: Rapunzel, Crush 3.75

Genre: Melodic hardcore, punk rock Better than average for sure. It took me a while of listening to this one before I finally decided to rate it. Standouts: Portrait of Authority, American Jesus, Recipe for Hate, Kerosene, All Good Soldiers, Modern Day Catastrophists Next Best: My Poor Friend Me, Man With a Mission, Watch it Die. Rating : 4/5

Blues/Southern Rock is probably one of my least favorite of the rock genres.... but this is good. At times it game me Janis Joplin vibes... Standouts: Where I'm Headed, Goodbye Carolina, Confessions, Remember Better than expected. Rating: 3.5

Indie folk, Americana. Recorded in Omaha Nebraska... but they are a Swedish duo. Their voices can be overwhelming at times, but overall the album is a very nice listen. Never heard of them before and I might get to know some more of their other works. Standouts: The Lion's Roar, Emmylou, This Old Routine, King of the World Rating: 4

Another one I have never heard of. I'm open minded and enjoyed the journey. It is relaxing and cool... something I could play on a long drive or while studying / working. Amazing, no, but definitely worth time spent listening. 3.75

Merci à celui qui l'a soumis. I am sure I am missing a lot because I don't speak French. This music though is quite nice. I really enjoy the album - there are a couple of especially nice songs. "Dis tout sans rien dire" I absolutely love. It translates to "Say everything without saying anything." Standouts: Te quitter, Dis tout sans rien dire, Dans un spoutnik, 4/5

Genre: Post-rock from 1997. The band in from Canada. I listened to the 63 minute CD release. Over the past couple months I have heard the album a few times. But, as I sit here listening to it now, it is like the first time I ever heard it.... It seems like it could be the soundtrack to a Stephen King book in the Gunslinger series... It is an album that is more about atmosphere than it is catchy tunes.... I think if I hear it a dozen more times, It could grow on me.... Standouts: Everything on the album and nothing at the same time. Rating: 3/5

Never heard of these guys before. But, wow! I loved it right from the start. A million thanks to the submitter. This is right up my alley. The intentionally low-quality sound really appeals to me - kind of gives me Daniel Johnston vibes.... I'll keep listening to this one for the rest of my life. Standouts: In the Aeroplane Over the Sea, Two-Headed Boy, Holland 1945, Oh Comely, Untitled, Two headed Boy Part II. 4/5 (only because I'm new to it.... maybe someday a 5/5)

From England, Sophie, album from 2018. Genre: Electronic, Avant-pop, experimental, Hyperpop So many different sounds and styles on one album! What a journey. It starts off slow and mellow with It's Okay to Cry, then BAM! It hits you in the face with the heavy electronic Hyperpop sounds of Ponyboy! That's when I fell in love with the album. Standouts: Ponyboy, Faceshopping, Whole New World/Pretend World, Immaterial Others: It's Okay to Cry Rating: 4/5

Arctic Monkeys had two other albums on the 1001 list, they were good, but this one is exceptional. I liked it much better than the others. I think every song is brilliant. Cheers to the submitter of this one! Standouts: Four out of Five, Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, World's First Ever Monster Truck, Front Flip, Star Treatment, She Looks Like Fun, Golden Trunks, The Ultracheese Rating: 4.5

One of my favorite albums ever. Period. Brilliant. Every song is perfect. How is the not in the book? I am flabbergasted! 5/5

Ambient Electronica at it's best. Such a variety of styles that make it more than an Ambient album. The Electropop tracks are toe-tappers (I'm not a dancer :) This is an album I would have never heard if someone didn't added it the list. Thanks. I really enjoyed it. I'll keep listening to this one for sure. Standouts: Look at the Sky, Get Your Wish, Wind Tempos, Something Comforting, Unfold Rating: 4/5

It sounds a bit like Queen at times... I think that's might be a good thing.... Standouts: The Ghost at Number One, Glutton of Sympathy, Joining a Fan Club, Sebrina, Paste and Plato, New Mistake, Rating: 4/5

Never heard of her before. Right from the start, I knew this was something I would really like. Thanks to the submitter of this album. I think it is amazing. I would definitely listen to other albums by her as well. I look forward to getting to know this album better over time. 4/5

This is another one I had to listen to several times to get into. There were a couple of great standout songs right away, but some of the other songs took me longer to appreciate. Standouts: Male Plague, Here is the Thing, Up the Tower, Half Sister Others: A Private Understanding, My Children Rating: 3.75

It's fine. Really an odd one compared to all the other great albums. Seems more like a chore to listen to than to enjoy. I do love the old music of this era...but this is a LOT to take in in one sitting. 3 of 5, lets move on....

It's nice. I enjoy it, not going to say it's great, but it's great to listen to while studying or working. 3.5

I like him better acting.... :) Not a big fan of the Genre, but I can get into the sounds and rapping. Every 'nigga' I hear on an album like this I bring the rating down a bit... Standouts: Crawl, 3005, Earth (The Oldest Computer) Rating: 3.5

Frank, you got to love his style and funk. He is different and I'm sure some of the younger generation just don't get him or the music. I love most of it. Please Don't Eat the Yellow Snow has been a classic most of my life! Standouts: Don't Eat the Yellow Snow/Nanook Rubs i, Cosmik Debris, Apostrophe' Rating: 4.25

Jimmy Buffett is now sipping Margaritas and eating his Cheeseburgers in Paradise.... RIP. The album is above average. I like that the genre is called Gulf and Western (for the Florida gulf). Standouts: Makin' Music for Money, Others: Door Number Three, Dallas, Trying to Reason with Hurricane Season Rating: 3.5

I can't believe there are so many artists on this list that I have never heard of. Especially, people like Josh Ritter. Wow, the style is right up my alley. This came out nearly 20 years ago and it sounds so fresh to me today. I also appreciate the unique and interesting album cover. Standouts: Girl in the War, Wolves, Monster Ballads, Idaho, In the Dark, Lillian Egypt 4.5/5

Very nice album. I would have NEVER listened to this album based on the cover or genre (anti-folk, Alt Country). I was pleasantly surprised. I generally loved it. Song like "Choke on a Cock" are funny - I think. Or did he? Whatever. It's all good! Standouts: Just about every song. Rating: 4.5

Beautiful release from 2019. If his other albums sound like this I'd definitely give them a listen. Angelo de Augustine... never heard of him before. Wow. I really like the style. But, by the time I got to the end of the album - I was grateful to hear something a bit more cheerful. :) Standouts: Tomb Rating: 4/5

Brings back a lot of memories! 5/5

Hard not to like this...if your an old F&*k like me! LOl. It's a bit before My time, but still reminds me of the 1970s (when I was a kid)....mainly because of the Newlywed Game....what's the strangest place you've ever made 'whoopie'? Standouts: Whipped Cream, A Taste of Honey, Love Potion #9, Lollipops and Roses, Peanuts Rating: 4/5 (for the nostalgia it brought, more than it's staying power).

Love it. It is a bit depressing but really wonderful.
