1001 Albums Summary

Two of the best to ever do it

RIP Chuck

Rock and roll! This is great stuff. I will definitely check out more by this band.

Fun choice!

Not a big pop punk fan, but this was okay.

Cool that Opeth got an album title from this

Not for me.

A solid and pleasant album, but 71 minutes is too long.

I prefer his previous stuff

4.5* - I can't believe this isn't in the original list. Great addition!

Loved their performance on Letterman. Great stuff!

4.5* Great stuff. Some of my friends in college were crazy for this album. My boy, Frank, even sold his blood the day this album was released so he could go purchase the cd. Frank, if you're reading this, let's reconnect.

This is good

This sounds too goofy to take itself so seriously

Great groove!

Jack Johnson always reminded me of that guy that would bring his guitar to a college party so he could impress girls. This is certainly that, but it's a good version of that.

This is like REM but not as good

This is okay, but feels unnecessary for an album from 2018

This is like a combo of other acts that I like better

Not for me. This combined a lot of my least favorite elements of music.

Nice melodies and great guitar tone

This guy is a goofball

Kinda sounds like she's doing an okay impression of Britney Spears.

I dig this

Not big on ambient music and this unfortunately didn't change that. My favorite track was the last one had some fun momentum and reminds me of the good grime music that comes after this.

A fine rock album

Not particularly into this style of music

Solid. Can't believe I haven't heard this before. Thanks for adding to the list!

Very chill. I enjoyed grooving to this.

This was solid. Some Springsteen desperation mixed with Arcade Fire earnestness.

Love these guys. Great addition!

I like this album, but it was too long

Nope nope nope

Solid pop punk

Impeccable flow and great beats, but a little too long. It drags in some places.

Epic!

Not really my style, but at least it was short

This isn't for me. Sounds dated but not in a cool way.

This was alright! It reminded me of Harry Nillson.

This isn't my favorite Low album - it isn't quite as good as earlier stuff

Naww

Cool record and sad story about the band.

Great lyrics and great energy. Nice choice

Great lyrics and great energy. Nice choice

Great lyrics and great energy. Nice choice

Fun! Never heard this before

In 2014? Seriously?

In 2014? Seriously?

Remember hidden tracks??

This is pretty boring

I like the sense of humor

The sopranos guys have based politics. Who knew?

The sopranos guys have based politics. Who knew?

The name had me hyped but the tunes were a little underwhelming. Plus one star for not over-staying their welcome.

At one time this was my favorite album - for quite a few years actually. I remember buying it on the day it came out and digesting the first few tracks in my car during my lunch break. Good times.

Some nice melodies and beats at times, but overstays its welcome

This is more like a 3.5, some real catchy tunes on this one.

Lol

Album is a little long, but undeniable talent

Catchy rich

That second half of the album is why punk exists

This ain't it. So boring

Naww

More Sparks! Always appreciated. La Dolce Vita and the title track are certified bangers.

This is pretty 90s and pretty boring

A post-grunge symphony!

I really don't care for her voice and it's so loud in the mix

This is like a less good Vampire Weekend. Funny that Spotify played me Taylor Swift right after.

This reminds me a little of Arctic Monkeys and Okkervil River, but I like them better

Saw these guys in 2004! Not my favorite melodic hardcore record, but a solid 3.5*.

Some pretty good tunes on here

The guy has a fine voice but the music is so goofy

Instant 5* - great pick!

This felt like an album full of Rolling Stones b-aides

Real decent

Heck yeah

Heck yeah

This could use a bit more passion and variety

I find this as exhilarating now as when I first listened

A little Vampire Weekend and a little Arcade Fire. Not bad

I like this, but it's held back because at times it reminds me of a Lambchop and Belle & Sebastian knockoff. However, there are some certified bangers on this album.

This was alright, even enjoyable for a bit, but 51 minutes is too much.

Some catchy songs on this one

I'm really surprised this wasn't in the book list. Absolute classic!

It sounds like a Tool album, but I like Tool albums

I wasn't looking to listen to a space-age mess this morning, but one found me anyway

A perfect pop rock record! Great choice.

\m/ RIP DIO

Dave takes himself just a bit too seriously

RIP DOOM

Was this a prank?

3!

This grew on me as I listened

Who was asking for this?

Who was asking for this?

Not overly find of this brand of schizophrenic rock - especially a double album

Starts out okay but really drags by the end

I like this better when Joe Jackson did it

I want to like the Fall more than I ever actually end up liking the Fall

Post rock masterpiece

Dream Theater is a bit of an acquired taste

96 minutes? Get right outta town

There's much better southern metal out there. Listen to that instead.

30 songs??

A masterful mixture of noise and catchy riffs!

Kinda chill but ultimately boring

Some of the songs definitely bang

3.5* if I could

70 minutes?! Nuts to this slog.

One of the best to ever do it

Great accompaniment to a stroll through the Cleveland Museum of Art

A couple decent bangers but too many sappy ballads

A little Springsteen mixed with Elvis Costello

I can't believe this isn't in the original list.

No thank you

No thank you

Accompanied me on part of a long drive. Not something I would normally choose, but it was enjoyable and the tracks were varied. Highlights include Love Psalm and true.

Solid and smooth pop punk. You can detect some of their earlier edge bubbling underneath the surface.
