5/5
unbelievable. fucking amazing.
Tim Buckley · 5 likes
5/5
this dude's vocal range is freaking NUTS. Liked the first song the best by a good margin but psychadelia has been big for me the past few years so this album just felt like another thing I'd be intentionally seeking out anyway. great stuff!
Suicide · 4 likes
5/5
This is one of my favorite albums. It's raw. And i think it rocks. Except for Frankie tear drop wtf Alan.
Fatboy Slim · 3 likes
5/5
I've just loved fatbot slim for so long. I used to get pumped on the bus to speech and debate tournaments on songs from this very album. so. uh. let's fucking go.
Jane Weaver · 2 likes
5/5
yeah this album was WHACK. it was so dope. it reminded me of synth pop acts like US girls or the knife. i listened to this album like 7 times. i just loved it.

Van Morrison
3/5
van morrison's voice is cool. there's an appeal there. I would throw on this album for fun. But i wouldn't notice it much. and i might be annoyed if like, the song moondance comes on. so, it's fine in the background.
The Stranglers
3/5
The Stranglers burst onto the scene - "Some day I'm gonna smack your face". These droogs bring some more elaborate musicality to punk, with liberal usage of the organ
Marvin Gaye
2/5
Fine background music for the bedroom, but not very inspiring beyond that
Cheap Trick
3/5
That song is alright. That song is alright. They just seem overplayed
Cat Stevens
5/5
Chill album. Good background music but full of depth if you want to listen closely. The two big hits on the album bring some extra energy as well
Queen
5/5
oh finally i get the option to rate an album after refreshing: which is how i feel about this album.
Dexys Midnight Runners

4/5
i like metal. this was a nice listen. had some good songs. several good listens!
Led Zeppelin

great uh, album cover.
Bruce Springsteen

He's a great musician, with a voice I loathe.
Sade
4/5
East, breezy, and smooth. I liked it!
Funkadelic
4/5
I like the funk
The Rolling Stones
3/5
listened to this with steven! good times. fun album. don't remember too much, but remember enjoying it but not loving it.
The Clash
3/5
The songs seemed the same. And none of them were that appealing
OutKast
5/5
So fresh
Michael Jackson
3/5
Meh. Pop schmop.
Janis Joplin
4/5
John Martyn
3/5
I appreciated this album, but it's not really my speed
The Young Rascals
2/5
some of the songs were "fun" but I didn't really like the album.
Eurythmics
4/5
fun album, very electronic feel, i think they were pioneers? dunno. enjoyed it though.
Lloyd Cole And The Commotions
2/5
not for me, not explicitly bad but, some of the songs were distracting because i just did not like them. at all.
Kraftwerk
4/5
big electronic fan, so hearing earlier stuff is fun, it's certainly more primitive but there's something kind of fun about that.
Suede
3/5
enjoyed the quirky singing, did not love all the songs, but it piqued my interest.
Slayer
4/5
great content. good pacing. enjoyed the fanciful lyrics. for me this fills the excellent workout jams niche.
Prince
3/5
meh, there are some fun poppy songs but, it's just not my style at all. i'm sure some of the stuff he was doing is NOW overdone but wasn't then?
Suzanne Vega
2/5
meh
Dire Straits
2/5
love money for nothing, but was surprised how much I didn't like the rest of the album. the songs were fine. slower than i was expecting. Money For Nothing isn't necessarily a fast song, but there's something about it's.... swagger, that the rest of the album just didn't really have.
Traffic
4/5
this was a very fun album. Traffic is clearly very skilled muscailly. The tone of some of the songs on the album was very much like the Battle of Evermore by Led Zeppelin for me which I have a huge soft spot for.
Grant Lee Buffalo
2/5
Some of the songs were good. Most of them were fine. I didn't particularly like it.
5/5
I've loved Damon Albarn since I got into the Gorillaz in high school. I listened to Blur a decent amount then to try and "get more of that albarn sound" and honestly didn't like it much, or didn't feel like it stood out (gorillaz are WEIRD, Blur sounds exactly like an indie rock band). But yeah, Modern life is rubbish has a lot of really fresh fun songs. I think the pacing of the album is really great and I love albarn's voice so much.
Metallica
4/5
Enter Sandman is such an epic song. I am also going to give this album 4 stars it was very pleasing. that's my takeaway.
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
2/5
chelsea is a good song. but I actively do not like his other stuff. at all.
Bruce Springsteen
2/5
ugh. I'm sorry. I just don't like this music. I don't know why. It seems boring? I know i'm a huge minority. I'll never know if I actually just don't like popular stuff. But nothing except dancing in the dark catches my attention but like, there are covers of that song that I think are absolutely beautiful and almost chilling and when he sings it i just do not get that at all.
The Clash
4/5
This album is great. There are some real bangers here. I've been listening to a lot of punk recently. This is one of the canonical punk albums. I'm not sure I think it reallllly delivers but i could listen to this a lot.
Heaven 17
4/5
Very fun, super dancey.
CHIC
4/5
ALSO very fun. two disco-y albums in a row. fun.
Various Artists
1/5
gross
Ice Cube
5/5
holy fucking shit. YES.
Sly & The Family Stone
3/5
album started out quite rough for me. Felt too 70s cheery bologna. But then it got kind of funky, and I enjoyed it. so. 3 stars it is.
Michael Kiwanuka
5/5
This album is a gem! Hero and You Ain't the problem are so damn good. could listen to this one all day.
Caetano Veloso
4/5
very fun. portuguese is such a beautiful language.
Bon Jovi
4/5
listened to this one a lot as a kid. i feel like it's loaded with hits. i'm alone in this feeling haha.
The Mamas & The Papas
3/5
a little "old sounding" but i enjoyed it. some of the tunes were quite catchy. Def some songs i've heard from "somewhere" which speaks to the albums legacy I suppose.
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
2/5
couldn't really get past the singing. Like Timbre TImbre, maybe if i listened more I could get into it.
Echo And The Bunnymen
3/5
some catchy riffs sometimes, the lyrics are fun sometimes, but nothing really stands out to me.
Bob Dylan
3/5
It just sounds like good folk music. So it's good.
Blur
4/5
i do not like this album quite as much as modern life is rubbish, but, good job damon. great listen.
Talking Heads
4/5
this was a very good album. I enjoyed listening to it. got a lot of modest mouse vibes with david byrne's singing so, that's probably where isaac brock, uh, got that idea, but it's working. Instrumentally some of the songs I was really into and some of them I could leave it. Mind was particularly catchy and i'm not sure i'd heard it before.
Sonic Youth
4/5
I need to give this another listen. You can tell some of it is "quite" experimental, but a lot of it is pretty solid. ANd i feel like it's the kind of album that can really grow on you.
5/5
this album is insane fun. enough said.
Dusty Springfield
4/5
uh this album was really fun. Son of a Preacher Man is just hella catchy. and there were some other fun ones. in the land of make believe was great. i think the heartfelt tone / old timeish feel is good background music for me?
Neu!
4/5
never heard of krautrock! Loved this, need to do a deeper dive into the genre. very interesting.
Eminem
1/5
this album fucking blew. that's my take.
Burning Spear
3/5

5/5
Never listened to this whole thing, find it very engaging
The Byrds
2/5
Meh
The Doors
4/5
Very compelling
Merle Haggard
1/5
when i listen to this it sounds bad to me?
Herbie Hancock
5/5
So fresh. So funky. This album hugger really hits the spot for me
Tim Buckley
5/5
this dude's vocal range is freaking NUTS. Liked the first song the best by a good margin but psychadelia has been big for me the past few years so this album just felt like another thing I'd be intentionally seeking out anyway. great stuff!
Alice Cooper
3/5
there were some hits, but I just can't put my finger on WHY i only felt like this was OK.
Paul Simon
3/5
paul simon is fine. this album is sort of slow.
Sufjan Stevens
4/5
interesting mix, was a fan.
Jeru The Damaja
4/5
i'm digging this 90s rap!
Gang Starr
4/5
back to back, let's go!
The Pogues
3/5
Solid
Joni Mitchell
3/5
I like her voice. Would re listen. Not my favorite but ... Solid!
Brian Eno
4/5
there was something very creative here. i didn't like all of it. but i appreciated it.
The Smiths
2/5
i just fucking hate these whiny ass lyrics. talking about being so angry and wanting to hurt someone. fucking nerd. the angst. it's too much.
Rod Stewart
3/5
i'm bias. but this was OK. maggie may is a cool song.
Soundgarden
3/5
Enjoyed the listen, bit came off as a little generic. It's possible they pioneered that sound though >_< ???
Amy Winehouse
3/5
2/5
She's saucy. But the album sounded a lot like itself. And that sound is meh, fine.
Dinosaur Jr.
4/5
I liked the sound but it didn't feel novel. Felt like a superchunk album. Or maybe wilco? Or maybe something else? But I think the sound is novel for the time so... 4 stars.
Minor Threat
4/5
Really liked this. Not sure why.
2Pac
3/5
i liked it more than i thought I would.
Jimi Hendrix
4/5
so fucking fresh. only ever listened to the hits. wow!
My Bloody Valentine
3/5
Weirder than I was expecting. But didn't really catch me.
Roxy Music
3/5
Also weirder than I was expecting but I didn't really care for it. But it's more Brian Eno. And I wanted to.
Belle & Sebastian
4/5
twee and enjoyable.
2/5
Meh
Blur
4/5
I just love blur. And I've always loved Damon albarn. The story of how song 2 came about is very funny. Really their most breakthrough stuff in the us market at least. But this album is delightfully weird.
The Yardbirds
4/5
Loved it! I felt the album had a nice range. Solid rock. Some occult sounding shit. Some folksier stuff. Really fucking solid album.
The Undertones
4/5
this stuck out to me. enjoyed many of the songs.
Oasis
3/5
Fine rock album.
Don McLean
3/5
i mean. american pie is good. the rest of the album was fine.
Aphex Twin
5/5
listen to them a lot. just really fucking interesting.
Elvis Presley
4/5
was surprised how much I liked this album.
Afrika Bambaataa
2/5
been digging the old rap, there was some good here, but overall, not a fan.
Pink Floyd
4/5
this is the only pink floyd album i like. shiny on you crazy diamond uh, is a bit excessive at times. but wish you were here is just such a great fucking song.
Arcade Fire
5/5
honestly skipped arcade fire. Funeral was like. really fucking good though.
Donovan
5/5
so. huge fan of psychadelia. come to find out, this was some of the OG shit. love it!
Travis
1/5
no!
Booker T. & The MG's
4/5
green onions is LEGENDARY... the sandlot baby! but the album does sound like itself.
The Dictators
3/5
I wanted to like this album more than I did. It was fun, but it did not really resonate.
Dusty Springfield
3/5
I liked this one so much more than the last dusty album. it reminded me of the fallout soundtrack steven used to play, very fun.
Jefferson Airplane
5/5
fucking amazing album.
Big Star
3/5
read a bit more about big star, cult following, etc. etc. this album was... solid?
Faust
4/5
keep that krautrock coming! love it.
The Rolling Stones
4/5
really great album, some of the hits but also some songs i had never heard and thought were really great.
Primal Scream
4/5
my kind of music!
Genesis
2/5
no, phil spector is... just this guy you know?
Ray Charles
2/5
just not my kind of music. but I acknowledge it's good for what it is.
Aimee Mann
2/5
she has a nice voice, she has other compositions i've enjoyed, but not this one. she had a great cameo on portlandia once too!
Brian Eno
2/5
ugh. i want to like this. but i do not.
The Verve
3/5
it's fine. maybe too slow for me somehow? bitter sweet symphony is of course pretty legendary. And some of their songs. like Lucky Man. sort of make me feel like they're sort of modern tom petty. and tom petty is great. but, it's just a certain kind of speed you know?
Arrested Development
3/5
This album was VERY fun. But I just didn't like it as much as some of the other rap that's been around so. I'm giving it a lower score. Sorry arrested development. you were better a show. But all the talking IS fun.
TLC
1/5
nope.
Malcolm McLaren
2/5
This was too off-putting for me.
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
2/5
not really
Run-D.M.C.
4/5
i should re-listen to this. I remember thinking. OH. this is where that's from several times. so let's say that's 4 stars.
John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers
4/5
This album was delightful. MY use case is work jamz though. so i am bias.
The Stooges
4/5
big stooges fan. listened to the first season of "No Dogs in Space" which is a music podcast and their first season is about punk and their first series is a three parter on the stooges. Which obviously adds to one's appreciation of music. Search and Destroy is my favorite song here. But proto-punk is known for being relatively simple/DIY-esque and that's a big part of its appeal. So, even though this is the stooges third album, I wouldn't say they've really broken the mold with any of these songs, or done anything crazy impressive or made songs that are intricate/complex/deep. They've harnessed an attitude, distilled it into something sonic, and disseminated it. And it clicks with people (like me) because you can feel something there. Also, James Newell Osterberg jr (aka Iggy Pop) was really the first one to do this sort of thing and his influence in this scene is legendary for good reason.
k.d. lang
1/5
no! none of it. i'm not even sure I'm going to be able to finish this.
fate must have a reason. why ELSE endure this album?
The Sonics
3/5
solid.old.tunes.
Jane Weaver
5/5
yeah this album was WHACK. it was so dope. it reminded me of synth pop acts like US girls or the knife. i listened to this album like 7 times. i just loved it.
R.E.M.
3/5
i think it's just his voice i'm not super hawt on. but the tunes are also solid.
Beastie Boys
5/5
I listened to this album several times. SO up beat. SO fun. was very surprised. I hadn't listened to this gem before or wrote off the beastie boys way to early.
Fugazi
3/5
meh, I like this kind of music so I thought it was fine.
Frank Sinatra
3/5
fine.
Beatles
5/5
so twee so cute. so great.
Fatboy Slim
5/5
I've just loved fatbot slim for so long. I used to get pumped on the bus to speech and debate tournaments on songs from this very album. so. uh. let's fucking go.

Drive-By Truckers
4/5
so good!
The Rolling Stones
4/5
also so good.
Queen
4/5
loved this album!
Brian Eno
4/5
finally something from brian eno i like. obviously, huge into him as the godfather of ambient music. that's my jam (not jam?) a solid amount of the time. But like, i didn't love roxy music, and his solo career is meh, so i'm glad david byrne was able to steer this into a direction i enjoyed.
Stevie Wonder
2/5
Marty Robbins
4/5
Because of some video game Steven played. I have a lot of prior exposure to this guy. Only one song. But my love for it carried over.
Thin Lizzy

Gorillaz
5/5
one of my favorite albums of all times. so...
Leonard Cohen
4/5
'lil rough, bit brittle, but pretty powerful.
Talking Heads
4/5
content wise, david byrne is on fire. I really like him as a lyricist. his songs can be funny, subversive, and powerful. I don't always love the songs themselves but for some reason as a person that doesn't really pay attention to lyrics that much that's what makes this 4 stars for me. This man annunciates. that helps.
The Charlatans
3/5
R.E.M.
2/5
no!
The Doors
3/5
Alice Cooper
4/5
this is a really good album and I really like the songs, but there's something almost muted, or held back. and maybe that restraint is appealing to some.
David Bowie
3/5
bowie is good. but this album doesn't really stand out to me. it's weird to listen to an album that has creative things that you feel like you should like, but you just don't. for example the song if you can see me, is frenetic and weird. but not my style.
Waylon Jennings
4/5
4 stars easy. we got fast songs, we got slow songs. we got sad songs. we got fun songs.
The Rolling Stones
3/5
I would listen to this again. But i didn't love it or love love it. The deluxe version was silly long. And the songs started to blend together.
Hugh Masekela
4/5
Hell yeah!
Eagles
4/5
Yeah. Eagle by eagles for eagles. We get it. But that album was good.
The Flaming Lips
4/5
I listened to this album 4 times. Years ago I felt this album was too trippy. And the flaming lips I wanted sang garage rock anthems like She Don't Use Jelly. Obviously Do You Realize is a masterpiece, and I wanted that song to exist so internally i was inconsistent and really reacting to a band growing in a direction that was different. Years later, especially with my current penchant for psychedelia, I find this album very gripping. I'm not sure I have new favorites. But I certainly enjoyed many of the songs in a way I would have described as "filler" before. That's fine, and that's how a lot of album's other songs are characterized when they have hits like Do you realize? (the official rock song of Oklahoma!), it's just hard to compare. But it's nice to acknowledge the change. And part of growing up is remembering that beliefs and opinions generated before now were done so by a different you. I can't 5 start this album. Especially while listening to the masterpiece that is Surfer Rosa. But the flaming lips are great. And this album was fantastic.
Crowded House
3/5
This album had some bangers. And I listened to it several times. I can't 4 star it for some reason but I did like parts of it a lot, and some parts really did sound like filler.
Pixies
5/5
It's the pixies! My cool friend showed me fight club in high school (i mean, he did drugs, and hold older siblings... but now he's a marketing director who DJ's on the side, so... already your judgement of cool is suspect). Anyway, FIGHT CLUB. Where is my mind starts playing as civilization collapses, and that part of you, that feels conviction about things whispers in your ear, "this band fucking rules. you should fucking listen to them... but you're on the fence about Helena Bonham Carter. You're a TEEN so you don't, like, feel total conviction. You're not a psychopath. You're just a hoopy frood that wants to say things at parties like: 'That lyric is based on an experimental french film called Un Chien Andalou,' so that people know you like, know stuff and are cool and relatable." So, you take a trip with frank black to alt/noise/rock land (Amherst, Massachusetts). But you're skeptical of surfer rosa. Well, not her specifically. She looks great. You're very happy with her wardrobe. But the album she's on the cover of is A LITTLE weird. Where is my mind is so... accessible. But what's this bone machine about? Why does he pronounce broken face like broken fist in an insane falsetto voice. It's just. ROugh. It's pretty lo-fi. He's so squeaky sounding sometimes! Why is he doing that? The girl is a nice foil. We like her. what's her deal? But you go on to another pixies album because, honestly, that was not the band you felt like you were going to be listening to when you finished fight club. Luckily, Doolitle is out and that's more approachable. SO you listen to that and you're like, cool. really cool. I like the pixies. I am a pixies fan. And then one day you come back to surfer rosa and you realize it's a masterpiece. Is it the emperor's new clothes? Do I have different ears now? Am I older? Is this a band's band? Probably. But you like it. You're a real pixies fan now.
Pet Shop Boys
4/5
So inventive! I love the like it's electronic-pop-irreverence . It's not full of things I adore, but it's close and I really appreciated it. synth-pop has always been one of my go-to rock subgenres and it was so cool to be able to hear one of the first bands in the genre on the album where they really hit their stride.
Earth, Wind & Fire
4/5
it's nice. it's funky. i don't love all of it. but i could listen to this album a lot.
3/5
I honestly think I don't like the live recording. I don't think the acoustics are great. It's in the direction of things I like.
New Order
4/5
I mean. This is great right? It's dancey and alternative. Can't get enough. It's the more eclectic, more electronic, child of Joy Division. It works. It just works.
- "But it sounds kitchy sometimes, Mr. Disco has literal pew pew sounds!"
- "well that's just what the future sounded like in the 80s!"
My favorite New Order song will always be Age of Consent.
The National
4/5
This guy has a fantastic voice. I didn't much care for the national in early college around the time this album came out and it's nice to discover you were wrong about something, especially when being wrong means experiencing something over 10 years old like it was new.
The Dave Brubeck Quartet
4/5
The music apple for itself.
U2
3/5
It's not just U2 now. It's me2.
Pere Ubu
2/5
Do you like things that are wary of being liked? Then have i got a band for you.
Minutemen
3/5
I feel like I should like this more. But for some reason the DIY aesthetic (embodied by the vocals which I didn't really like that much) felt more naive then cool.
Screaming Trees
3/5
i listened but have since forgot abit. it was def indie. and i thought it sounded fine. might relisten later...
Wire
2/5
i just couldn't get into this. it's certainly LIKE tons of stuff i like. but it isn't. sorry wire!
Ash
4/5
ugh. so good. it's got a garage/grunge sound that I really dig, the vocals are appropriate for the genre. It's playful and it rocks pretty hard.
Laura Nyro
4/5
I loved this album! the vocals were great. I thought the songs were good. and I liked
Les Rythmes Digitales
5/5
This is just fucking great.
Billie Holiday
3/5
good background. not necessarily my cup of tea but. it was nice.
Garbage
4/5
FANTASTIQUE! Some really famous songs on here. young me remembers the dope ass theme for THe World is not enough. great band. i can't 5 star it, but i loved it.

4/5
super.fucking.catchy. you go sting!
The Stone Roses
3/5
meh, it was fine
Van Morrison
4/5
so. here's the deal. van morrison was my first album. so whenever this playlist starts I hear. and it stoned me. whenever this playlist I'm building ends I hear. and it stoned me. sometimes I just hear and it stoned me. in my thoughts. this man's voice is in my head a lot. so, now, i like it more thank i did. it.wore.me.down.
The Notorious B.I.G.
4/5
dood. this album was good but like. stop having sex and getting blow jobs in the middle of your songs. this guy is obviously dripping with talent though. really enjoyed this album.

Faith No More
3/5
war pigs. and, yeah, this was fun.
4/5
Very compelling
Nick Drake
4/5
So freaking good.
Aerosmith
3/5
solid rock
The Pogues
3/5
i would throw this on in the background to create a mood. and that mood is a fun if not excessively celtic one.
John Prine
4/5
he's just fun.
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
4/5
Metallica
4/5
i can't 5 it. but this album was really great.
Culture Club
2/5
Meh
Steve Winwood
2/5
it's a bit groovy. but not my taste.
Paul Simon
2/5
lol. allergies. cars are cars. get outta here you silly boy!
The Go-Go's
4/5
Ya. So fun.
Bob Dylan
4/5
classic. bobby D. too folksy too furious.
Madonna
4/5
catchy! lotta bangers.
Mercury Rev
3/5
soft spoken. garage rocky. i thought it was the flaming lips for a second. it was good.
Suicide
5/5
This is one of my favorite albums. It's raw. And i think it rocks. Except for Frankie tear drop wtf Alan.
The Flaming Lips
4/5
really really compelling. could listen to this a bunch.
Frank Ocean
4/5
really enjoyed this!
Jamiroquai
4/5
yes!
Pink Floyd
4/5
i hated this when i was in high school. now i think it's pretty good. but. it is so freaking long.
Elvis Presley
3/5
this was solid. but it's not exactly my speed
The Velvet Underground
5/5
this is one of my favorite albums. i can't be impartial. all the songs are great. even all tomorrow's parties. which i should hate. i think is hauntingly beautiful. the black angel death song. incredible. venus in furs. amazing.
Kate Bush
4/5
She's so talented. And as poppy as the album starts out it gets pretty weird. Love it.
The Fall
3/5
it's like british cake. i like it.
Marvin Gaye
3/5
fun
Led Zeppelin
4/5
classic!
The Chemical Brothers
4/5
great early electronic. listened to this several times.
PJ Harvey
2/5
clearly creative, and some of it was very catchy, but not for me.
Simon & Garfunkel
4/5
soOOooo sweet. the OG twee boiz
Steely Dan
3/5
this is not my cup of tea but I really enjoyed having it on in the background. which essentially is what 1001 has done to me. If it's not objectionable somehow (looking at you pere ubu, being unlikable isn't a likable trait) music outside your wheelhouse can be very pleasant to listen to.
Fred Neil
3/5
solid in it's field i'm sure. appreciated.
The Roots
4/5
this album was really cool. in part because it was quite unique. very impressed.
The Cure
1/5
i fucking hate this
The Youngbloods
3/5
uhhh. ya, it's kewt?
Gotan Project
4/5
Sí
Iron Maiden
3/5
Iron maiden helped me get in to metal but this album was more of a caricature than it was engaging. But that's a hard critique to back up. Generally i appreciate metal for not taking itself too seriously. And this album doesn't.
Which i love.
Simon & Garfunkel
4/5
the twee boiz strike again. cute as shit.
Moby
4/5
This album is very inventive. It's quite varied and fairly long. Really enjoyed.
Black Sabbath
4/5
Yes. Just this black viscous goopy wave of cacophony scored with deep bass and vitriol. Love it.
Stevie Wonder
4/5
this album was great!
Country Joe & The Fish
4/5
Yes. Could listen to this album a bunch. Every song isn't great but i like the twang and The vocals are appealing
Depeche Mode
3/5
3. did not like this as much as i thought i would. i did like the remixes a lot though.
Pink Floyd
3/5
it's fine.
Deep Purple

4/5
The Jesus And Mary Chain
