Set Yourself On Fire
Stars
Excited to see what my first user-generated album is going to be and lo' and behold, it's yet more nostalgiabait for millenials. I'm going to try to give up my nihilistic ways now that all the new music I listen to isn't decided by one random british old guy. This managed to grab my attention a couple of times like in "He Lied About Death", which is a straight up good song. However, a bit of strings and goofball electronics does not hide the fact that this is an indie rock album from 2004. Most of the instrumentals are sleep-inducing and both vocalists are indistinguishable from every other indie singer ever. its aight

Come And Get It
Rachel Stevens
What? This is the UK's answer to Britney Spears of course. Like a phoenix reborn after the tragic dissolution of the institutional group S Club 7. I think one of them said "we are probably more popular than Jesus Christ" and everything turned to shit. Wonder why the brits keep doing that? How can you not love this basic bitchass album produced by scientists in a lab and performed by a child model turned popstar. its pretty good

Please Don't Take Me Back
Martha
Lord don't move the mountain. Give me the strength to listen to a 35-minute pop punk re-re-re-revival indie project made during COVID. The band is queer, vegan and anarchist? Then how come this is the most boring piece of music I've heard since yesterday (I got a 2000's pop album). You can be so much gayer, so much more chaotic and so much more vege tables. My life is now post-Martha. I have been guided around the mountain. not bad album tho

Human Racing
Nik Kershaw
Nik was truly ahead of the curve. I heard through the grapevine that several songs were based on improvisation. Also that other songs had a political message. Truly riveting stuff! For that modern sound, he added some hi-hat, a normal one. People keep saying this is too 80s and I don't get it. Do they mean 2080s because this still sounds like it is from the future. What a visionary, and a heartthrob.

MOMENTUM
Calibro 35
Fun fact: 99% of 1001+ album listeners give up before discovering something with actual personality and passion. I am glad to be a part of that 1%. Okay, after perhaps a week or so of absolute sludge I got this to rekindle my interest in the user-submissions list. I don't think the original list would ever include an Italian cinematic funk album from the 2020's. It's not the greatest thing ever but it comes pretty close. five outta five

The Midnight Organ Fight
Frightened Rabbit
As opposed to cringey 80's hair metal and generic hard rock bands, there is a point where music becomes a victim of toxic unmasculinity. This album is milquetoast folk indie rambling galore. Admittedly they must be self-aware of this, starting from the band name itself, it's at least cool that they clearly have a thing they are going for. But I do not find this vulnerable or introspective or honest or anything like that, it's just kinda pitiful. How could the Scots do this to my perception of them? but its not bad

Funeral Dress
Wussy
These guys are one of the most. Uuh one of the most celebrated bands. Awesome! Put their whole wussy up in this and love to see it. Singer sounds like she wants to die (sympathetic, check) and the drummer really keeps the beat (rhythm & tempo, check). What else is there to say? 2 stars for harmonica

Young Team
Mogwai
Slow, melancholic, adjective nr.3. Listened to it loud as fuck as instructed. This is an album that requires a certain mindset in order to fully immerse yourself in it. With post-rock projects like this I feel the usual objective is to pack every thought and feeling you can possibly have inside of your head, let it run wild, create pressure and absolutely get lost in it all to the point that it's almost a jumpscare when it finally ends. This didn't achieve that for me. it was enjoyable tho

Jóhann Jóhannsson
This is what happens when you let the balds make music. Absolutely gorgeous arrangements, this is an album to wash away the bad and make your soul lighter. My mouth and asshole were agape once I saw what movie soundtracks this guy has actually composed, very prolific musicians from Iceland once again.

Lebsian music. Respect. It's time for me to give a pure pop album some flowers because this had my attention front to back. It helps that the dugudugudugu synths here do not sound like complete dogshit but are produced well and used in a way that fits with other elements built around it. homo peetter album heheh

Frengers: Not Quite Friends But Not Quite Strangers
Mew
Holy ballsack I had a bit of a hard time not to just tune out while listening. Somewhat forgettable. The drink equivalent of this album would be a mix of jägermeister, sloe gin, triple sec, quadruple sec, gunk from a dog's eye, absolut pikl, red stripe from aquafresh toothpaste, 1 drop of hot sauce and venom of the lousiana labamoth. but its pretty good

Pulse
Pink Floyd
2 hours plus of pink band greatness. Yeah the first song is 13 minutes long with 8 minutes of instrumental until some tired old guy starts meekly singing about some shit. Problem, liberal? Certainly one of the better live albums on here. The only problem with this is that I wasn't there when it was made. I'm literally pulsing my dick to this rn

Speak & Spell
Depeche Mode
Bing bong hop on it disco style... disco beat and hump pump greatness perhaps if you are into it. I mean it's depeche mode. Interesting to put a lesser album of theirs here when the original list already has multiple. Nevertheless, it's good music.

Dogrel
Fontaines D.C.
Punkslop. But not as grating as I expected it to be. These guys studied punk and post-punk shittery enough to realize that they should avoid the overboard whinging and under-production. They sound as unique as a band like this can. ait

Don't Say No
Billy Squier
Do not tell me what to do Billy. From a very unpromising start this album actually shows some depth and creativity so well done Billy I'll say yes this one time to anal. I don't understand why people keep comparing this guy to Led Zeppelin, I guess some random review back in the day started another weird collective notion but no, that is not a good comparison just because the drums sound good occasionally or whatever. good labum thou

Seemingly some serious shambolic shit is going on in here. Dick, dick dick... Tsk tsk... Bro thought he was on some Joanna Newsom shit but forgot that bloke was Northumbrian lmao. The Last Kingdom of sorts, the last place where coherent songwriting has not yet arrived. good album

The acclaimed feminist icon complaining about her life for an hour heh just kidding just kidding... Her vocals range from nice to horrendous. The instrumentals carry this hard. Overall I find it difficult to enjoy this album. Omg but it's such a vibe thooo... Or is it?

Shoot it into my veins please. Yeah I gave every Metallica, Sabbath and Maiden album a 5, I could easily fit the archetype of "I just don't like when they scream." But this thing goes absolutely wacko mode. You never know what's coming next and I love it

Tomb
Angelo De Augustine
He almost got me with his sweet whisperings but it only works here and there the album as a whole is more boring rather than lovely dreamy and whatnot. Would work more if lyrics such as "over head the albatross hangs motion less upon the air". good still

Stage Four
Touché Amoré
Yea this dude is extremely annoying. I'd rather listen to bob ylan with a clogged nose for the next week over this sorry. With all the energy and vigor that the vocalist puts in his performance, he still just sounds kinda small and meekly. good album thohuhg

Spilt Milk
Jellyfish
What made Jellyfish different from such bands as the Posies, the Wondermints and Redd Kross was their unapologetic penchant for all things retro, that helped throw some light on what was becoming a very crowded pop underground at the time... or something like that. did not enjoy tthis but good album

Rich. This reminds me of wealth. Typical Malian jamming and meandering that was perfected much before the time of this. An hour passes quickly when listening to this. Absolute banger at the end of the album

Phantom Power
The Tragically Hip
Can Canada possibly produce an interesting artist or band? That country has the most milquetoast catalogue of music. I like Rush sometimes, I guess. But even they are flattest sounding popular prog band of their time. Ok I googled it and you got some good singer/songwriters. Still no good bands though, you have stripped rock entirely of what made it fun. This sounds bridsding

An Empty Bliss Beyond This World
The Caretaker
Modern surrealist work that imitates an old-timey crackling phonograph. And it goes waaaaay overboard with the remoteness of the music and nearness of the ASFJASJOICPUCSPOS POP ASJOASCPS POP SJDVDFLSJVDLFDBSLFVD POP POP. What a pretentious bore. imma give it 5 staro

Needed some good old Idaho rock to brighten my day, thanks! Keep listening to this music yes. Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away... Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air... Nono this is good music you're right, you are thinking...

Go Farther In Lightness
Gang of Youths
Every alarm siren in my head was going off before I actually got to listening to this album. They look threateningly like the most boring indie rock band ever formed. Half the songs on Spotify have the explicit tag indicating the addition of awkward profanity to already cringy lyrics. Turns out they're not bad. Cool symphonic stuff in there too.

Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?
of Montreal
They are from USA but as their name suggests they still have the Canadian sickness of maladious indie music. Though they lost me from the start, their extended 12-minute song was a treat in the middle of the project.

It's a bit difficult to truly describe the feelings that album this album evoke accurately. I would start off with saying that it's awesomesauce. Absolutely bonkers. Cool beans. Amazeballs.

The Lonesome Crowded West
Modest Mouse
It's like getting hit with a sledgehammer. Kind of what a mule kick to the face would feel like. A feeling of intense, immediate pain, and the disorienting loss of consciousness, with the body sometimes not feeling the full impact until later. Another dogcunt indie rock album.

Horrific pedo case. Imagine being a little fella and just wanting to see some 240p action on ESL maps and you hear the song Klaxons - Atlantis To Interzone (Crystal Castles Remix) in 2007. Crazy this came out a year after that and is so much worse. Still good tho

Worst thing about metal is when there is no actual metal clinging, instead they call industrial that. The ambience and space here is so important why not fucking throw wrenches at pipes in the background I don't get it???? good lbun thou

Avicii
I enjoyed like half of these songs much more than I thought. I have never in my life said "I could do with some Avicii right now" but the dude certainly understood his craft well. It is catchy electronic pop music, it doesn't try to reach very high.

O Monstro Precisa De Amigos
Ornatos Violeta
Emotional singing. Surely singing with eyes closed perhaps and looking slightly upwards and twisting face to monstrous positions most likely. Enjoyable throughout. If this was made by some fuckass anglosphere indie rock band it would have a 3.1-3.2 rating.

Agog at this. An explosive 12 loads of punk straight down my ear canal. Who is writer of this? David - Sandström. Well, well, well. What the hell is the fishpaliikki going on here my mother said while listening to this one time probably.
