The same age as me, the album is remarkably diverse, so there is no chance not to like at least one track. Anyway, as a whole it's not working for me, at least for now.
Interesting work, even for the one who is not into grunge.
I tried, really
Since all I've listened to before was Cosmic Dancer, I can call The Slider my first T.Rex experience. Well, the album is extremely easy to dive into. The songs are catchy, but not primitive. Actually, it feels like something I've been listening to for years. Great album!
LE-GEN-DA-RY! You may not know who they are, but you definitely heard the songs
I did not know this side of Pixies. Dark and desperate. The album is solid and tough.
So soft and relaxing you could completely dissolve into this album. Love it. Not so complicate but still satysfying.
There is definitely something catchy in it. Anyway, it's more like background music.
Sometimes it sounds scary but in a good way with all these random squeaks and gasps and howls.
Ol' Man River is everything! Epic album, I think I'll return to it.
I totally love the album, though I'm not into punk music. This one is so energetic and harmonic and high-quality, so I would keep it for my collection.
It sounds totally out of time, in a good sense! The opening song is like 00s and then you see 1974. Stunning!
Living proof that album cover is deceiving. Adorable music!
You understand that you're getting old when soul music doesn't sound embarrassing anymore. Sweet! I'm in, deeply.
Sex Bob-Ombs
Boring
Sounds interesting, hip-hop intertwined with jazz-funk, I've never heard anything like that
I was impressed by Slider, but this one is more dull. Anyway, Cosmic Dancer is a legend.
I've listened to it three times within weeks and still don't get it.
I don't know, it feels like this music sounds a bit outdated. Like it meant to be cool, but it's not anymore.
Hotel California and some other songs
Not quite my tempo
Warm and nostalgic sound, just like honey!
That's a System Of A Down I don't know. I love them more complicated and diversed. 2 for this one
I have listened it so many times, but still don't know. It's to complicated and tense
Sweet album, but kind of empty.
I'm still processing "best album ever" information. I like some songs - There is a light..., some girls..., so on. Actually, I Like the Smiths, but in small doses.
Wow, I guess this album opened Jimi's music to me. Sounds great!
Old sentimental cat ❤️
I'm not into hip-hop, but this one sounds creative and even cute
Adorable
Too much for me. Sweet sweetness
Messy album
I'm not a fan of The Rolling Stones, it's always been hard for me to understand why they are so liked. Anyway, this time I'm closer than ever, the album sounds fresh and catchy.
Great album, delicate and strong
That's so relieving to review something familiar after all these chaotic albums. I've been listening to High Violet for seven years. I love Berninger's desperate lyrics and voice. I can't say High Violet is my favourite National's album, I'm into Trouble Will Find Me, I'm Easy To Find - late ones. Anyway, I'm glad to see High Violet in this project!
To my surprise, I really enjoyed the album. Rock music is supposed to be driving, but in fact most of the time it misses the mark. Bat Out of Hell burns bright.
My grandpa is a total fan of such music. The album is one of the best in this genre. Anyway, it was fun just for like 2-3 songs. So, 5 from my grandpa and 3 from me.
I don't know, it feels like they are too nice, too righteous.
Massive album
The album sweeps you off your feet with its energy! The life itself! I'm still struggling with funk and other "fun" genres, but I really liked this one!
Amazing, I love these guys! The more I listen to Cosmo's Factory, the more satisfying it seems. Actually, it works with almost every album in 1001, so this one was lucky not to be reviewed too soon
Sweet surrender is great. I like that sexy vibe of 70s. Obvious and naive.
The album sounds exactly in the colours of its cover art - not too pinkish (we know, it happens in shoegaze) but rather in dark ruby-pink colours. I like rediscovering it again and again, it definitely has huge power.
Hah, Rolling Stones kidnapped Bob Dylan - that's how it sounds for me. I like it though.
Sounds outdated and sometimes ridiculous.
Funny mess, so many sounds
Stairway to heaven
Oh, love it! I've never heard of them before, but the album is so adorable!
Just love almost everything they do!
The title track is an adventure! So complicated and multilayered
I like both the complexity and simplicity of the album. Sacrifice is extremely catchy!
I’m not familiar with Dylan’s discography and know only mainstream tracks like One more cup of coffee or Like a rolling stone, but I like his music. So, I don’t feel I’m able to judge it somehow or make any comparisons. Just want to say, the album is cozy and pleasant, I enjoyed the ride!
The kind of hip-hop I like. So many bangers!
First, the music surprised me since the cover doesn't match with the sound IMHO. As for the sound, it's pretty odd - sometimes it sounds like Andrew Bird, sometimes like crazy 60s cult. Anyway, that was interesting experience!
I need somebody is interesting, the rest of the album sounded like a mess to me. I guess I just don’t like this kind of raw power.
The kind of electronic music I can't stand. Primitive
Sweet, but not my kind of sweetness
Oh, that cover :D I'm not into salsa, but that was quite pleasant.
Amy 🖤
After the brilliant George Harrison's album "All things must pass" I just can't rate it higher. Or I just don't like Paul.
I’m not into classic rock really, so grand guitar riffs and solos don’t make my heart go faster. But this album is an absolute classic and I love almost every track.
I can't stop listening! I've never really new George as an artist apart from beatles, it's incredible! So delicate and smart, love it!
Ok, some songs are good, but I still don't understand the general admiration
I enjoyed it!
Eclectic one. So much styles under one cover. Still confused
Oh, that's so epic! Like the band more and more!
So beautiful, so sad, so romantic
I've never knew this side of Bee Gees. OK, all I knew was the only "Staying alive" side, to be honest. But this album is magical.
I'm not an Oasis fan, but this is classic.
I have to confess that Neil Young was all about "Harvest Moon" for me. It was interesting to listen to the complete album, but it's more straightforward, more stylized part of his music. I still like the tender and dreamy sound of Harvest Moon more than this album
Brilliant! I enjoyed the vibe
The self-esteem we all need :D "Work it" is so good!
Interesting, I like this funny chaos
The guys sound like Beatles sometimes, but it's 1986. Tomorrow's (Just another day) is the coolest.
Oh, the absolute masterpeice! The first album we've tested on our B&W stereosystem. So many sounds in perfectly organized harmony! Fiona scares me with her talent
The sweetest country album I've ever heard. Iike drowning in the see of riffled dresses and white aprons.
I've tried this one three or four times and was about to give up and stop trying. Actually, the album is wery uneven. Where Is My Mind stands out like a tree in a field.
I guess it's the most careless and life-affirming album in my dark playlist. These vibes of "Lion sleeps tonight" and african folklore, my inner child loves it so much!!!
It took me an hour to go from "meh, too noisy and messy" to "god, I love this". Doll parts, the song I've known as Tricky's, sounds so fresh and powerful, I can't help listening to it on repeat. Oh, and the cover is a legend!
Love it!
First, they sound older than 1996. Second, the tracks are quite primitive and sentimentally catchy. Third, I still like it for some reasons.
Oh, it was love at the first sight. I feel I've been listening to it for ages. Maybe it just reminded me of Imploding The Mirage by the Killers. Anyway, I'll take it to my playlist
The peculiar mix of 80s crap music and strong ethnic vibes.
The wide range from the smooth jazz to the cringy soul, but rather yes than no
Not my thing. Too mainstream and simple. But maybe I should give it another try
This record was literally gathering dust in our vinyl collection before I got this on 1001. But it's so innocently fresh, it was a real pleasure. Like a trailer of further summer.
Oh, That woman. "There mess we are in" was my favorite for a couple of years, but then I played it to death. The huge album!
I was ready for an awful experience, but it wasn't so bad actually. 3/5 just because I wouldn't try it again.
Th kind of elctronic music I can't take sriously. Inspection is ok, but some tracks are just a nightmare.
The strange mix of Pink Floyd and The Beatles. Nice one!
Though I prefer late night jazz to the morning one, if you know what I mean, this one is completely adorable! Perfect start of the effortless day.
I was surprised to see The Black Keys in 1001. I mean, they are cool, but just random guys from my university playlist. Anyway, the album is easy and nice.
Gorgeous! I haven't heard it before, but I'll definitely add it to my jazz collection.
Well, the cover terrified me and I didn't expect anything good. Anyway, it was quite fun.
Legend
They have too much fun. Sounds like Tame Impala sometimes. I don't think I would listen to them often
Awfully boring rock. I don't know, I just can't stand this album
I used to love these vibes when I was in school. Now it doesn't seem really interesting, but I like the concept.
What a discovery! I've never heard of them before, but Torn Curtain and Marquee Moon were instantly added to my playlist.
Oh, I love this album. It's a perfect transition between early punk albums and the latest righteous ones. So tender and desperate.
Oh, this one is so boring! I like some things from Kings of Leon, but this album is so background your brain ignores it completely.
Funky funk
Oh, that's a nice one. I hate when metal is getting boring and monotonous, but this album sounds fresh and creative. Orgone accumulator is great! Also, the cover is so epic! I think it would be one of the few metal albums I rate higher than 3
So much tracks I’m lost completely :/ sounds like a mix of all genres, didn’t work for me
Literally every track is a massive hit, what can I say?
I’ve heard so much about this album, it’s a legend.
Nice soul-saving country. I wouldn't add it to my playlist, but anyway, sounds nice and pleasant.
Wow, they are so cool, "Shot by both sides" is epic!
I feel some rudiments of trip-hop, but in general I don't like this transitional form between simple electronic music and trip-hop. Sometimes it sounds unbearable.
Another one deceiving album cover. A sheep in wolf’s clothing. Sounds nice and unpretentious
Both fine and funny. Adorable album!
Oh, that's interesting! Fresh and diversed. Like it!
After reading other reviews I unterstood I have no idea who Eric Clapton is. But anyway, I enjoyed the music, so it's non-judgmental 4
Oh, I love this album! So light and intense at the same time! Pleasant street is my favourite.
So mild and comforting, sounds great
I'm not a reggae fan, but it was nice experience! I like this album, not so mainstream
It was nice listening to something beyond Time of the Season
Sweet, nice, simple, etc.
Just don't like it
90s as it is
The effect of presence is brilliant. Today I was there, really. At those club, among the others. What an experience!
The great atomic album
Have some mercy, I've stopped hating soul not so long ago, Stevie is still to much for me.
Wow, I could've sworn I'm not familiar with this music, but I know almost every track. Every one is a massive hit!
At first, the album sounded to me like a crazy Japanese music from some low-grade anime opening. I could barely listen to it. Now I can admit it’s interesting and theatrical. Anyway, I wouldn’t play it often or at least regularly, so it’s 3.
Wow, like it! So naive and pure, so young and idealistic
Not quite my tempo, but pleasant jazz music
I like these cool vibes. Like the band of your older sister, playing from the basement. The one you're not allowed in. Sounds to me like a young versions of PJ Harvey
Glorious start of 1980s in music. “In vogue” is a pure brilliant. Do they know this music is in vogue again?
I like seeing this album like a bridge from 70s to 90s, from Carribean to Britain, etc. Significant one! Though, I prefer their latest albums.
Despite there are not so many hits here, I like this album more that the numbered ones.
Doesn’t work for me. Sounds dull and shallow
Oh, this voice! I have no clue why this picture was chosen as an album cover though… But I know I’ll keep on listening to it.
It feels like you already know the album. Sometimes it sounds like something from 70s, maybe Tim Buckley's vibes, sometimes it's 90s, like a decent version of Nickelback)) Totally like it!
I can’t. It’s more than I can’t stand
Whose world is this? Decent album, though I wouldn’t listen to it on daily basis
At first I couldn’t help thinking it sounds like a music from a random joga YouTube video. But this music has a peculiar structure and holds your attention. High quality!
Brilliant album! I’m so glad I understand it now. One of my favourite albums here. Well, 5, long time no see!
Well, that's a specific music. I like David Byrne, but this album is tough)
I’ve been listening the title track for years, but the whole album turned out to be brilliant. Treaty and String Reprise are two masterpieces (or one diptych). Love it!
It’s a perfect vibe match! This album was generated on a cold autumn morning and sounds exactly like that
This one surprised me! Some tracks sound ahead of their time, other ones - kind of behind. At times I can’t help feeling I’m listening some 90s college band. Cool and still fresh!
One love and all its covers are forever in my playlist. The rest of the album are not so memorable. Anyway, it was quite pleasant.
Kind of rock that makes me yawn. I just don’t get it.
Oh, finally something I’m familiar with! True legend.
I've tried many times, but I just don't get it now
Wow, they reminded me every female vocalist I like: I hear Nico, Bjork, Fiona Apple, all of them. That’s interesting
Graceland is still my favourite. Anyway, anything Paul Simon does is pure and kind, like the sound from careless childhood.
Oh, I like the mood! Solid indie
Whoa, some effects sound great through my headphones. What a rollercoaster!
I'm not a big fan of country music, but sometimes it sounds so damn good that you forget you've never even been to America. This woman is a legend and Making Plans is the sweetest song, so it's 4 from me, Loretta!
Oh, again
I can’t help giving this adorable album 5 stars! ⭐️ it’s so peculiar and at the same time easy to listen. I definitely want it on vinyl.
Nice and sweet as usual, you can sing along to each song as usual. Cheers!
At first sight, it was dreadful. I survived Tarkus and was about to give it 1 or 2 stars. Anyway, gorgeous organ melody of Hymn and some other interesting moments made it worth 3 stars.
Oh, this one! I’ve almost forgotten how much I like it. Five stars out of five for these young gentlemen!
Question 1: why people love this album so much
Question 2: how to stop listening to it on repeat
Oh, now I understand where did Imploding the Mirage by the Killers come from. Sounds cool, I like this neon cathedral.
It’s fun how they see post orgasmic chill
Aretha cries power
Well, this one is better than Stand! I like the vibe. Still not really my thing though, but it was nice experience!
Well, I like three songs: Dreams, Chain and Go Your Own Way. The rest doesn’t work for me. I can’t get why this album is so adored and acclaimed by people.
Sounds like a soundtrack from every dramatic tv show for teenagers I ever liked. Nostalgic!
I can’t stop listening to it, so easy and relaxed
Oh, this one is perfect in every tiny psychedelic detail. Great!
I enjoy the vibe, keep on listening to it while cooking
Well, when I listen to it long enough, all I want is to stop it.
Wow, gorgeous
I don’t like this kind of Elvis Costello
Album cover is so captivating, but the sound is too psychodelic and messy for me.
This album is completely new for me. Sounds nice)
Love it!
R'N'B classic
Wait….. Pastime paradise? Damn, how young I am to think that Gangster’s Paradise is an original song 🤦🏻♀️ Surprisingly, it’s the first album by Stevie Wonder that wasn’t an execution for me.
Actually, I really like "Dancing in the Dark", but album as a whole left me a bit frustrated
The album cover immediately won me over, even before I knew it's Bob's art. The music is adorable, want this album to be among my number 5 family
can't rate it any higher
A dreamy masterpiece. Sparkling and hazy.
Sounds modern and stylish
Is it Smashing Pumpkins?
Oh, no. It’s unbearable
She was a revelation for me. I liked her dark ballads reminding me of Lera Lynn, though this harsh contrast of these gorgeous ballads with cheerful country songs makes me confused) Anyway, it’s 4
Full of drive and energy, eternal classic
The main song is sooo good! Some others too. So, I guess it's four
Energizing. I'm not a big fan of the genre, but it sounds fresh and catchy
Many legendary tracks, many silly ones, many both…
The first track was promising, but then…
Well, that’s gorgeous, but I can’t get rid of that feeling there are too many mainstream hits on it. Anyway, Someone Like You is one of the most touching songs ❤️
I like Pearl Jam, like that nerve, like that voice.
Oh, delicious! The most elegant piece of hip-hop I’ve ever heard. References to Marvin Gaye surprised me. Like it!
Wow, that’s cool! Like it
Arrrrr
Nice one, we have this one on vinyl
I thought Shout was a Depeche Mode track… Well, I’m surprised. Haute couture
Oh, so annoying and sometimes freaky. I love Psycho Killer, though…
I like the vibe.
