1001 Albums Summary

slaps. very jangly guitar noises. kinda like folky rock?

Respect the amount of sampling that went into making this album and I thought the transitions between songs were pretty seamless. There's a big lo-fi element that makes it somewhat quaint at times. Overall suffers from the same issues I have with most electronic music which is repetitiveness. Might be more fun in a live setting, but for individual listening is really boring to listen to. The only song I found interesting was "Frontier Psychiatrist" which pretty dynamic/not repetitive and had a cool Halloween/spooky theme throughout.

Elvis Costello kills. Apparently a lot of people have commented on this album as an influence on the punk genre which was still just starting in the late 70s. I can definitely see; the band is on adrenaline throughout the entire album. Elvis Costello's voice slightly annoys me at times, but his music is good enough to overlook it.

Led Zeppelin is timeless and perfect. Could not make this album if you tried.

Beatles hardcore

David Bowie is good but this is too avant-grade for me. Maybe if I was more of an art student. The first couple songs are good but then… eh.

Damn I judged this album unfairly, but it's actually very good. Electronic / funk / jazz mix? Super cool concept and don't think I've heard anything like it before. I feel like this would've been very ahead of its time for the 90s; even now it seems really fresh. Definitely will be getting this on vinyl at some point.

The Beatles if the Beatles weren’t the Beatles
