Popular Reviews

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley

It only took 531 albums but it finally clicked for me. This list isn't about 1001 albums that are worth spending your time listening to (given that the vast majority of them are complete wastes of time and do not sound pleasant to the ears at all) but 1001 albums that you /should/ have listened to for the purpose of partaking in musical history and overall general knowledge of what has been. Even if this album does not hold a candle to anything that has been made since then, I can understand how this guy was literally the coolest thing since sliced bread when he was active and touring. To move on to my review of the album, I can't believe this guy was the Mr. Beast of the 50's, that's crazy

Vulnicura by Björk

Had to listen to this a few times to make my mind up on the rating I had only heard notget before going into this but yeah I still love Björk if my mood was aligned I would like it even more but its still amazing

Out of respect for this album, I thought black text on white was antithetical to this album's message, so I have decided to write my review with black text on black instead. ████ ██ ██ ██████████ ██████ ██ ███████ ██ ████ ███ █ ████ ████████ ██ ██████. ████ █████ ███'█ █████ ███████ ███ ██ ██████ ██ ████.

Appetite For Destruction by Guns N' Roses

I'm only on sweet child of mine but this album pisses me off so much I have to rate it now all these bands, groups, singers, artists and albums sound the exact fucking same I had to search up who made "Run to the hills" because I they sound identical to half the songs on this album i want to rate it a 1 out of protest for how bad it is but it's still not Beatles tier bad but me rating it a 2 does not bring me joy the last straw was the WOAH WOAH WOAH MY MICHELLE MY MICHELLE MY MICHELLE MY MICHELLE and I'M THINKING ABOUT YOUU YOUUU UUU UUU UUU YOUUUUUU screaming

this is genuinely hundreds of times better than their other albums so far, but its still a disappointing mess, all over the place This is what I imagine mentally disabled people living in personal assistance homes listen to. I guess you just had to be there to get it, a sort of if you know you know. This sucks, blows, stinks and every other synonym that fits. I applaud them for not making me rate every single album of theirs a 1

American Idiot by Green Day
Jan 02 2023

Never listened to before, only heard select songs "Old" comparatively Very same-samey from song to song Start of Extraordinary Girl is nice because its not punk rock and then it becomes punk rock again. tsk tsk Not an enjoyable album, cannot comment on its production quality Thought the last song was incredibly good until I realized that spotify had turned on radio mode and was playing a Gorillaz song LMAO

John Prine by John Prine
Jan 03 2023

Nice and mellow Some songs had the instruments channeled strangely, some only showed up in the right channel and some in the left, was distracting 3.5 stars but you cant do half stars

Jan 04 2023

Van Halen by Van Halen
Feb 21 2023

pretty decent for boomer rock, expected worse but was pleasantly surprised 3.5/5

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Feb 22 2023

always heard this album was a classic but it was kinda meh, his other stuff is way better School Spirit was sick and I've always liked Last Call

Headquarters by The Monkees
Feb 23 2023

decent background music, i like the glockenspiel(?) in Ill Spend My Life With You but its not anything crazy good (looked it up and apparently its a celeste, not a glockenspiel)

Mar 07 2023

The Poet by Bobby Womack

Isn't Anything by My Bloody Valentine
Mar 10 2023

ive tried to listen to this for almost a week now, i think ive heard the first song 18 times and the last song once because i keep losing focus every time its veryu ninteresting but its not bad, if 1st song was better then it would be a 3

Blackstar by David Bowie
Mar 15 2023

so avant-garde i thought it was schizo at first you can tell he was old as balls when this was recorded not too bad tbh

White Light by Gene Clark
Mar 16 2023

was kinda meh, real inoffensive hick music got tired of the harmonica real fast

Vanishing Point by Primal Scream
Mar 17 2023

pretty decent album, it would be a 9/10 if i was currently on an mdma comedown and having a mental breakdown

Cross by Justice
Mar 20 2023

it was alright, ive heard the first song before and it made me think the entire album would be as good but alas not

Suede by Suede
Mar 27 2023

pretty sick album, some really good songs and some really bad songs, averages out

Timeless by Goldie
Mar 29 2023

too long kinda meh Sea of Tears was alright

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Mar 30 2023

i heard good things about talking heads so i went into this with high hopes this album sounds like you gave a bunch of tribute bands the challenge to make a completely new song using Psycho Killer as their inspiration holy shit this album sounds the exact same throughout and it sucks major balls

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
Apr 03 2023

actually trash i hate boomers and their "music" with a passion

Beyond Skin by Nitin Sawhney
Apr 07 2023

this album was sick, liked every part im on listen 4 in a row, both having listened to it standalone and whilst doing other stuff and man... its so good some stagnant moments in songs such as Nadia and Anthem without Nation but songs like Nostalgia and Tides more than make up for it hoooooly, Tides is such a beautiful song will need to relisten to this tomorrow again before rating just to be sure, preliminary rating is 5 despite the few less interesting tracks just because the rest carries it to those heights but this might change to a 4 after the honey moon phase has passed its a 4, Nadia and AwN take up too much of the runtime unfortunately but still a great album

Toys In The Attic by Aerosmith
Apr 10 2023

highly unremarkable. i really despise this genre

Winter In America by Gil Scott-Heron
Apr 11 2023

last song was really good, the rest was pretty okay

Gentlemen by The Afghan Whigs
Apr 13 2023

also pussy repellant music but not too bad

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
Apr 17 2023

took me a while to listen to because the first song is so good i kept replaying it for several days modern man is also okay rest of the album is mid

Soul Mining by The The
Apr 18 2023

its bad but its good, i dislike it but im vibing along with it i dont get it but its alright

Nothing's Shocking by Jane's Addiction
Apr 19 2023

I CLENCH MY FIST AND BEAT IT aside from that this sucked

En-Tact by The Shamen
Apr 20 2023

surprisingly better than expected

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Apr 21 2023

that last song was so bad 2/5

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder
Apr 25 2023

also pretty nice 3

Apr 26 2023

was expecting trash, was greeted by okay and then it turned too long and repetitive

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails
Apr 27 2023

I was initially listening to this using the speakers on my phone as I was out on a walk in the woods. After the first minute of the first song my expectations were that I was not going to like the album at all but by song three or four I realized that I had to turn the album off and listen to it properly with good headphones the album is actually sick. songs like Piggy, Heresy and The Downward Spiral hit hard as fuck and Ive relistened to them several times and will be relistening to this album. Closer is a good song too but its not the best on the album, solid chip core audio tho its 3 am and im just relistening to this album over and over, its so good might genuinely be one of the greatest albums ive heard. its beautiful reading up on the backstory on the album i found out that the song Hurt is a nine inch nails original and that Johnny Cash's version is only a cover thats crazy while I had to argue whether or not Beyond Skin was a 4 or a 5, the difference in enjoyment between these are so incredibly vast and apparent that I cannot give this anything but a full score

Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones
May 01 2023

first album so far I go into expecting it to be good as I have listened to Gimme Shelter and Monkey Man a lot prior It changes genre too much but I guess this was good back in the hippie age of "lets just throw random shit in because us junkies wont be cognisant enough to listen to it anyways"

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
May 02 2023

The Whale was alright, rest was really boring but not bad

Songs Of Love And Hate by Leonard Cohen
May 03 2023

the Joan of Arc song was pretty nice, the rest was not bad nor good

Cafe Bleu by The Style Council
May 04 2023

cant imagine why this is one of the 1001 albums you have to hear before you die i dont like genrefluid albums and the good parts (jazz) were too inoffensive and safe

Palo Congo by Sabu
May 05 2023

yeah i agree with u pretty good

The Pleasure Principle by Gary Numan
May 09 2023

the string section of Conversations was the only good part in the entire album. 4:19 to 4:37, 18 seconds of beauty was all I got out of this I had to pause the music and walk away during several times Genuinely a terrible experience

Django Django by Django Django
May 11 2023

a cute album they sound like they had fun

May 12 2023

first impression: thought it was going to be bad a bit further in: maybe itll be good final opinion: boring

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
May 15 2023

it was alright but not spectacular 2.5/5

Savane by Ali Farka Touré
May 17 2023

it was decent the ensemble of instruments reminded made me think of medieval europe for some reason 3.5

The White Album by Beatles
May 19 2023

the start was decent (the first few songs) but then it turned into the same ol snorefest beatles shit at least not a 1/5 this time

The Stranger by Billy Joel
May 22 2023

it was alright moviing out is really good though

Imagine by John Lennon
May 23 2023

it wasn't very effective.

Crocodiles by Echo And The Bunnymen
May 24 2023

it wasnt good last song isnt available in my country maybe it wouldve swayed my opinion (doubt it though) at least it was pretty mellow, easy to listen to

Protection by Massive Attack
May 26 2023

it was alright. i like massive attack and they have some other really good songs but this wasnt all that crazy

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
May 29 2023

in the start i was grooving along 2.5/5

Abraxas by Santana
May 30 2023

it was alright, a bit too heavy on the synth/organ for me

Olympia 64 by Jacques Brel
Jun 01 2023

yeah i dont speak french, i fucking hate the french but man their birds are alright

Violator by Depeche Mode
Jun 07 2023

it was all right, some decent songs but mostly boring droning

Locust Abortion Technician by Butthole Surfers
Jun 09 2023

thank god it was short USSA might be one of the worst things ive heard last song was decent

Back In Black by AC/DC
Jun 12 2023

classic album. almost all songs are good, though i do not particularly like them too much given how safe and radio-sanitized it is

Entertainment by Gang Of Four
Jun 14 2023

i long for the day UK punk rock is off the list of remaining albums

Doolittle by Pixies
Jun 15 2023

started off weak, had a nice midpoint, fell off a bit again and then ended decent

Jun 16 2023

too samey the fred durst feature was really fitting but the ice cube feature was so incongruent

Jun 20 2023

some songs ive listened to before, overall pretty alright i guess

Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Jun 21 2023

why do those 2 guys look like goblins

Arise by Sepultura
Jun 22 2023

not my type of metal, this just felt very samey

Fuzzy by Grant Lee Buffalo
Jun 23 2023

shame he couldnt decide on a genre it was alright but could have been better

Machine Head by Deep Purple
Jun 26 2023

listened to this 4 hours ago. dont remember a single note my own thoughts overpowered it. wholly lackluster but I cant remember it being actively bad

Is This It by The Strokes
Jun 28 2023

i like the mastering they do on their vocals on this album. beyond their popular songs on this album, the rest doesnt stand out much

Southern Rock Opera by Drive-By Truckers
Jun 30 2023

first song had me amped as fuck, it sounded great and i was ready for something heavy another genrehopping album ZZZZZZzzzzzZZZZZZzzzzzz it was pretty good all things considered. Days of Graduation was really good and Three Great Alabama Icons was really nice, it reminded me of H2O Gate Blues by Gil-Scott Heron that we listened to album #72

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Jul 04 2023

first half was uninspiring, third song was good and then it fell off again

Beauty And The Beat by The Go-Go's
Jul 05 2023

THIS IS REAAAALL RADIO MUSIC https://i.imgur.com/bdNo99O.png

Greetings From L.A. by Tim Buckley
Jul 06 2023

Ive heard good words about Jeff Buckley but never Tim Buckley I can see why

Out of Step by Minor Threat
Jul 07 2023

still better than the beatles

Electric by The Cult
Jul 11 2023

genuinely the most uninteresting genre

Moondance by Van Morrison
Jul 12 2023

it was all right

21 by Adele
Jul 13 2023

it was pleasant, nothing crazy but it was nice was surprised when I heard Lovesong, didnt know she made a cover of that song

Vulnicura by Björk
Jul 14 2023

Had to listen to this a few times to make my mind up on the rating I had only heard notget before going into this but yeah I still love Björk if my mood was aligned I would like it even more but its still amazing

Stephen Stills by Stephen Stills
Jul 17 2023

Cherokee was nice, the rest was really boring

Planet Rock: The Album by Afrika Bambaataa
Jul 19 2023

first song is comically bad but i like the "fwoOmph" snare sound

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Jul 20 2023

been a while since I listened to an album on the day it was supposed to be listened to i hate rock so much it got better when it turned almost medieval in its sound with the flutes and guitars

Felt Mountain by Goldfrapp
Jul 21 2023

oompah radar is so silly i love it

The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monáe
Jul 24 2023

it was all right for what it was memorable lyric: "I'm shaking like a schizo"

Tidal by Fiona Apple
Jul 25 2023

also all right for what it is i like the album cover

Dig Me Out by Sleater-Kinney
Jul 26 2023

reminds me of that art project where they have women try to read books whilst sat atop a sybian this has so much vibrato / voice trembling that it sounds as if they are also doing that

Real Life by Magazine
Jul 27 2023

catchy at times but not for me

Tapestry by Carole King
Jul 28 2023

i agree, the first song set an upbeat mood that the rest of the album failed to deliver on but it was still all right

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Jul 31 2023

by process of elimination I can rule out Paul McCartney from being the bad part of Beatles

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Aug 01 2023

during the first few songs I thought "all boomer metal sounds the same, this stuff sounds exactly like the "Run to the hills" group" imagine my shock a bit later

The Contino Sessions by Death In Vegas
Aug 02 2023

this is heavenly. Dirge, the distorted guitar and melodic synth in Flying, the trumpet(?) in Aladdin's Story, the cover image is so beautifully composed only gripe I have is that Soul Auctioneer is very monotonous

Shaft by Isaac Hayes
Aug 04 2023

pleasant jazz but not my type of jazz does not generate any interest in watching the movie

Live At Leeds by The Who
Aug 07 2023

this was all right background music but it wasn't good

Queen II by Queen
Aug 08 2023

I dont like queen, never have, and this was not the start of me changing my opinions on his music not actively annoying though, decent music that was meh for me

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Aug 09 2023

kinda boring, wasnt streinous to listen to but not good

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Aug 10 2023

I wanna give this a 4 but this album has some of their weaker songs I do sometimes go around saying the "I was looking back at you to see you looking back at me to see me looking back at you" line to myself though, it rolls of the tongue

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Aug 14 2023

Bittersweet Symphony is genuinely one of the top 5 most beautiful songs I've heard but the rest of the album falls so flat comparatively. Want to give it a 4 because of how easy and smooth it was to listen to but despite that, the songs werent all that good

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Aug 15 2023

all right background music but it wasn't good

Infected by The The
Aug 16 2023

This did not cure my headache but I did fall asleep because of it. It was bad but I cannot rate it poorly as it helped me in my time of need

Dare! by The Human League
Aug 17 2023

I cant imagine who would listen to this more than once

Shaka Zulu by Ladysmith Black Mambazo
Aug 18 2023

meh, not actively unpleasant but very boring

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
Aug 21 2023

decent listening music, incredibly weak 4 but its because I didnt want to give it a 3

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Aug 22 2023

all of the songs are incredibly samey and the songs themselves sound incredibly same throughout the few minutes they last at least concrete jungle had a little guitar riff to break up the monotony

Bone Machine by Tom Waits
Aug 23 2023

it's strange but I fuck with it

Pornography by The Cure
Aug 24 2023

rating this a 4 because I know that one day when I am feeling incredibly defeated, probably over a girl, I will love this album. as of today its a 3.5ish maybe

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues
Aug 25 2023

interesting but became a bit boring. not bad just kinda eh

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
Aug 28 2023

He definitely shines in this album in a way that he didn't in the previous one we listened to, or perhaps he did but I simply could not appreciate it properly He has a very powerful prescense and Steer your Way is a really nice song Overall it was not too crazy but a nice experience. I recommend reading his biography on his Spotify page, I'm about halfway through but it's written really well and is very introspective and captivating

Sign 'O' The Times by Prince
Aug 29 2023

This is not the sound I had associated Prince with, at some points the instruments sound like he is using a ruler held down on a table and using the vibration of the part hanging over the edge as a percussion instrument. Its interesting but not good imo

Murder Ballads by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Aug 30 2023

halfway through, I really dont want to finish the album but I will. At some point they stopped trying to make "music" and instead just played the blood-curling of a woman dying in an industrial meat grinder and somehow that didnt make the album worse than it already was

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Aug 31 2023

One of his earlier jazzier albums. Not my favourite but still pretty good 3.5 but its Zappa so I gotta give it a 4

Purple Rain by Prince
Sep 01 2023

This is more the sound I associate Prince with. Unfortunately, still not good. Purple Rain is so incredibly overrated

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar
Sep 04 2023

I have nothing witty nor interesting to write here this time. It's not good enough for a 5 but its definitely not as hit or miss that 3s are

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Sep 05 2023

3,not because it was a mix of good and bad but because despite being so incredibly boring and bland, it was palatable

Bongo Rock by Incredible Bongo Band
Sep 06 2023

Kinda cute album, a bit swingy I recognise the first song, it was sampled in that hip hop song that goes "jump on it, jump on it, jump on it" but I cant remember the name of it and I cba searching

Hounds Of Love by Kate Bush
Sep 07 2023

tokfu music it was nice and pretty decent but I didn't particularly likenit 4 but probably won't relisten for at least a few years at the earliest

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Sep 08 2023

I fw this

Good Old Boys by Randy Newman
Sep 13 2023

meh I thought the first song was super racist until I heard it again

Astral Weeks by Van Morrison
Sep 14 2023

really boring, 1.5 but im giving it a 1 im feeling generous

Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Sep 15 2023

I understand why only one song is still talked about

Sep 18 2023

this is genuinely hundreds of times better than their other albums so far, but its still a disappointing mess, all over the place This is what I imagine mentally disabled people living in personal assistance homes listen to. I guess you just had to be there to get it, a sort of if you know you know. This sucks, blows, stinks and every other synonym that fits. I applaud them for not making me rate every single album of theirs a 1

Dance Mania by Tito Puente
Sep 20 2023

No song stands out, they're all pretty much the same There was a marimba part halfway through the album that I really liked tho, Hong Kong mambo album makes me want to dance with women in some fancy sunset bar

Bluesbreakers by John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers
Sep 21 2023

boring, stick to one genre

Hot Shots II by The Beta Band
Sep 22 2023

it was interesting but got boring incredibly quick broke was decent

Live And Dangerous by Thin Lizzy
Sep 25 2023

listened to this across 2 days, could not remember a single thing from the previous day when I resumed the album. utmost unremarkable

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Sep 26 2023

my dad would like this, I don't the last song having that chill instrumental part in the middle of it was really nice tho and I thought the end of Warning being that "just a little bit too strong." thing was cool

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Sep 27 2023

I Could Have Lied is the kind of RHCP I like, the rest is the kind of RHCP I dont really care for. I really liked the cover on Jimi Hendrix's song in the end, Castles Made of Sand, really like that song. (Jimi did it better)

Bubble And Scrape by Sebadoh
Sep 28 2023

too all over the place, Think was good tho

The Genius Of Ray Charles by Ray Charles
Sep 29 2023

decent, nothing much tbh it was nice to listen to and kinda reminded me of christmas time, the kind of genre of jazz thats popular then

Parklife by Blur
Oct 02 2023

I didnt think this was particularly "good" for lack of a better word, but I loved almost every second of it I found myself singing along to the chorus of several songs, despite it being my first time listening to them, they were that encapsulating. I loved the instrumental track, and songs like The Debt Collector are incredibly charming. Felt myself dancing around a little as I was listening to it. I have rated music I thought was "better" lower but thats simply because, despite it not being as artistically innovating as some of the other albums, its genuinely just so nice to listen to. Will listen to it many times in the future

Horses by Patti Smith
Oct 03 2023

idk man

Oct 05 2023

the third Bob Dylan album so far. even if war broke out and every record and cd in existence was destroyed aside from any of Bob Dylans discography i wouldnt listen to this

Oct 09 2023

Its an experience I love how all of the songs are made to fade into each other

xx by The xx
Oct 10 2023

I saw someone rate this album as incredibly uninspiring with Intro as the only good song. Insane how much I disagree with them. This was just art all the way through, maybe not the strongest 5 I've given (like Parklife) but I do think its much better than all of the 4s Ive given that I can remember Ive listened to Intro, Crystalised and Islands way too many times throughout the years and I will continue but perhaps add other songs from this album into the mix. I was introduced to The xx through reckfuls stream. Man I miss him so much

Logical Progression by LTJ Bukem
Oct 11 2023

actually really liked it compared to the album Timeless by Goldie that we listened to many 'a months ago and is listed in the description as the 2nd of two defining drum and bass releases of the 90s. I shared with you the only review I read on the global review list. "I know you want to slip your fingers down your knickers as soon as you hear the first note, but please resist temptation and let this musical journey rape you into submission instead. What an outrageous record, that drips its gooey semen into your ears and sits back and watches as you struggle to shake it out. Your ears are brimming with cum and there's nothing you can do about it."

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Oct 12 2023

idk it was just too long and had too many songs that werent really music

L.A. Woman by The Doors
Oct 13 2023

i expected this entire album to be as good as riders of the storm but no, not even close still giving it a 3 just because that song is so good NFS Underground had such a good soundtrack

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Oct 16 2023

really smooth

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Oct 17 2023

Really smooth. Pyramid song is such a masterpiece genuinely Not their best album but the fact that Im giving them a 4 despite this says a lot about RH

Oct 18 2023

>this album was generated on his birthday thats funny Its decent, it has too many filler songs that dont really fit the mood but the songs that do slap are so good so I cannot with a good heart give this lower than a 4 as well

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
Oct 19 2023

weak 4 but I like it, the latter 2 songs arent as captivating as the first two I think they might even be ordered in the album in the way I would rate the individual songs

Kollaps by Einstürzende Neubauten
Oct 20 2023

this is super interesting but my anxiety was at a hightened stage during the entirety of it it does deserve its #1 lowest rating on the site award but its still better than the beatles, sincerely

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Oct 23 2023

I love this it reminds me of Fishmans by Fishmans which is another 5/5 in my eyes so beautiful

Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys
Oct 25 2023

I watched a documentary about the Beastie Boys and they talked extensively about his album and all of their other stuff Boring. I like the mixing theyve done to their vocals. Makes me nostalgic for the old GTA:SA days

Red Dirt Girl by Emmylou Harris
Oct 26 2023

It was all right, not bad and I somewhat enjoyed it but since I dont actually like this stuff I cant give it a 3 >Music for old women. I'm neither of those yet >yet 🤨

Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves
Oct 27 2023

it was pretty decent for pop-country first song was the best

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
Oct 30 2023

this is the first review I do from the homepage in months it was cute, I don't think it'd quite 4 level but to distinguish it from some 3 ratings which I found much less enjoyable I'm putting it there it's a 3.7 or so in reality but I liked it enough

This Is Fats Domino by Fats Domino
Oct 31 2023

half the songs were unavailable in my country but I didn't like it enough to go looking for them. 1957 must be the oldest album we've listened to

Kenza by Khaled
Nov 01 2023

Rijahd Gosling very nice instrumentals but I hated the vocals on every single track

Dirty by Sonic Youth
Nov 02 2023

It's the song I hate It's the song I hate It's the song I hate It's the song I hate It's the song I hate It's the song I hate It's the song I hate It's the song I hate It's the song I hate It's the song I hate

Madman Across The Water by Elton John
Nov 03 2023

>tw: no punchline yet I laughed at "they also lit the boss' door on fire once"

Parachutes by Coldplay
Nov 06 2023

This album feels like how crying feels, carthartic It makes me feel like my childhood years when I had a crush, almost like butterflies in my stomach Its so beautiful. This is why I like 1001 albums because I would never in my life had thought "Today I'll listen to a Coldplay album" and discovered this I wish I knew how to express myself about this album but all this album is to me can only be felt by unexplainable emotions

Power In Numbers by Jurassic 5
Nov 07 2023

it's better than 3s but weaker than some 4s. probably a 4 tho since it doesn't fit into my definition of a 3 but I will probably not relisten since it wasn't that crazy took me 2 days to finish because I got stuck on Thin Line and relistened to it like 20 times

It's Too Late to Stop Now by Van Morrison
Nov 08 2023

listened to it and forgot it promptly after very beautiful instruments but I dont really care for the songs. cant choose between 2 and 3 so im flipping a coin

Third by Portishead
Nov 09 2023

incredibly interesting sound that they manage to do nothing spectacular with the 2nd half of The Rip (the synth chromaticism/arpeggio(?)) was so nice but the rest of the album was pretty mid 3 for their uniqueness and the synth in The Rip, 2 otherwise

Public Image: First Issue by Public Image Ltd.
Nov 10 2023

I dont know if I should be happy or sad. I expected some Gary Numan / LCD Sound System kind of mess based off of the album cover and the album/band name but when I turned it on I was yelled at. Though, regardless of it being different, it wasnt any better than any of those two artists

Reggatta De Blanc by The Police
Nov 13 2023

First song sets a tone that the rest of the album can't deliver on interesting that you can hear the Caribbean influence idk 2 maybe, no real opinions but it wasn't bad, mid enough for me to forget it was on nor good for me to enjoy it

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
Nov 14 2023

if I could remove like 4 songs and remove all the interlude / storytelling parts then this album couldve been a 5 but some songs are just so mid (like Backseet Freestyle) and all the interlude shit

Underwater Moonlight by The Soft Boys
Nov 15 2023

wanted to skip this album many times. took me 4 days to listen to it because whenever i put a song on I had to turn it off a minute later

Electric Prunes by The Electric Prunes
Nov 16 2023

bland, not good not bad i could listen to it and not want to kill myself I like your cute little graph lole

16 Lovers Lane by The Go-Betweens
Nov 17 2023

I had a funny comment but I forgot it it wasn't all that much

S&M by Metallica
Nov 20 2023

the symphony orchestra concept is so cool to me so this was one of the most enjoyable albums so far, even if it wasnt the best the latter half had some more mid songs that didnt fit the concept as well but I still enjoyed it

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Nov 21 2023

it was just like the other album, all very samey but not bad i already liked jammin prior and not surprisingly it was t he best song of the album

Fulfillingness' First Finale by Stevie Wonder
Nov 22 2023

its a 3 but let it be known this was the most joyful 3 ive listened to so far I think didnt like it that much but I was nodding along the entire way

Another Green World by Brian Eno
Nov 23 2023

had one song already saved and had heard another, kinda surprised me meh, your review puts it pretty well

Be by Common
Nov 24 2023

I like rap but I don't like hiphop that much

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Nov 27 2023

it sounds nice but i didnt care much for it

The Score by Fugees
Nov 28 2023

felt 3 hours long

Appetite For Destruction by Guns N' Roses
Nov 29 2023

I'm only on sweet child of mine but this album pisses me off so much I have to rate it now all these bands, groups, singers, artists and albums sound the exact fucking same I had to search up who made "Run to the hills" because I they sound identical to half the songs on this album i want to rate it a 1 out of protest for how bad it is but it's still not Beatles tier bad but me rating it a 2 does not bring me joy the last straw was the WOAH WOAH WOAH MY MICHELLE MY MICHELLE MY MICHELLE MY MICHELLE and I'M THINKING ABOUT YOUU YOUUU UUU UUU UUU YOUUUUUU screaming

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Nov 30 2023

Music for insufferable women

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Dec 01 2023

I thought I liked this album but it turns out I only like There Is a Light That Never Goes Out

So by Peter Gabriel
Dec 04 2023

The kind of music you would hear in a sappy Disney/Pixar/Dreamworks movie about anthropomorphic animals that overcome great tribulations with the power of friendship

Dec 05 2023

Had to listen to this multiple times to figure my opinions out. Initially it started with me wanting to give it a 3 with the review "interesting. if I only rated things off of how interesting they were this would be a 4 for sure but I dont so its at most a 3" after having listened to it kind of half-assed on a pair of shitty headphones. 2nd listen was using my phones speaker as I was out walking my dogs, still had the same opinion as the first initial one but I only managed to finish the first half on this "attempt" so I had Four Cornered Room and The World Is A Ghetto left to listen to, so I figured "why not finish the album with my good headphones at my pc and then Ill rate it. Thank god for that decision. Four Cornered Room and TWIAGhetto are so incredibly sexy when given the proper equipment to be heard out of. Listened to the album another 2 times after that I think

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Dec 06 2023

I hope I never have to listen to another band fronted by Janis Joplin The highest praise I can give it is that I could easily forget that it was on

Gold by Ryan Adams
Dec 07 2023

just finished it and cant remember a single song, not even the one that ended 20 seconds ago

Home Is Where The Music Is by Hugh Masekela
Dec 08 2023

liked the first song and thought I was going to enjoy this but it took me a few days to listen through, was a bit bland despite being good

I wish I was one of those people who felt done with an album 3 songs deep, alas I am struck by an affliction that forces me to finish albums no matter how bad and boring they are I am currently halfway through but I need to vent by submitting my review now. No, the remaining half will not change my mind

Metallica by Metallica
Dec 12 2023

without the symphony orchestra it's pretty meh, I like his voice but not much more than that nothing else matters is really good tho

Dec 13 2023

2nd song is so good i added it to my own playlist i love brazilian music

Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Dec 14 2023

I mean, hear me out... I'm definitely relistening to this in due time. Not any time soon, but one day

Brutal Youth by Elvis Costello
Dec 15 2023

disliked it but then it became a little charming

Aja by Steely Dan
Dec 18 2023

not exactly feeling a 4 but its not a 3 and I like the album art so ill give it a 4

Green by R.E.M.
Dec 19 2023

does not invoke interest at all but not as bad as the beatles

The Libertines by The Libertines
Dec 20 2023

low 2, bordering a 1 because i listened to this whilst angry and I already hate music like this

Something/Anything? by Todd Rundgren
Dec 21 2023

not too bad tbh, very long but all right. would never relisten thoughever

Rio by Duran Duran
Dec 25 2023

boring

Dec 26 2023

Theres one thing I hate more than christmas music and it's the idea of listening to christmas music in July if I dont bite the bullet and do it now, no matter how much I really want to push this forward. Unfortunately I am unable to separate my dislike for christmas music away from the album at hand so that I am able to listen to it objectively but even when I try, this doesnt even register on the chart of listenable music.

Sister by Sonic Youth
Dec 27 2023

didnt really care. couldve been a 3 if it was an instrumental album

Let England Shake by PJ Harvey
Dec 28 2023

it was nice to listen to but i didnt look up or listen to the lyrics so ymmv >Also wtf is that horn in The Glorious Land lmao I thought that sound came from somewhere else I got faceit flashbacks

D by White Denim
Dec 29 2023

hella boring, wish I was doing anything else or not really boring but not interesting on third thought, it was ok it was a little cute actually

Harvest by Neil Young
Jan 01 2024

when I read "Neil Young" I thought this guy was Chris Isaac and was excited because that guy has some decent songs Took me a while to realize this is another guy It was all right

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Jan 02 2024

have liked the first song for years still not convinced that the other 11 songs arent just the same song with different names

Stankonia by OutKast
Jan 03 2024

Expected more from it. There are the two obvious mega hits and those are good but honestly, the only other song I found stuck out to me was Toilet Tisha

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Jan 04 2024

Its jazz and very timeless jazz at that. it's just lacking a bit of oomph, a bit of melodic storytelling for it to be a 5

Mermaid Avenue by Billy Bragg
Jan 05 2024

This album is just like all the women I've been with: Average, not super interesting, a bit whiny and when it was over I was glad I could finally move on with my life

Jan 08 2024

second half brought it down to a 3 very interesting and unique to me

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis
Jan 09 2024

given that I don't take historical context or none of the "lore" into account for any of my ratings, this is just boring jazz to me I have to say, the global reviews for this album has some of the most unfunny people I have read the reviews of since starting this

Bert Jansch by Bert Jansch
Jan 10 2024

cute and I kinda liked it, will relisten some day in the distant future

You're Living All Over Me by Dinosaur Jr.
Jan 11 2024

My favourite parts were the screams of death and the wails of the decaying souls in Tarpit, and Toledo. Toledo really elevated this album from a 2 to a 3 "Poledo made me think "damn this was great I want to listen to the whole album again"." same

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Jan 15 2024

neither good nor bad, doesnt stand out

The Slim Shady LP by Eminem
Jan 16 2024

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Jan 22 2024

I dont think I would be particularly interested in music if I was born back then

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Jan 23 2024

I really dislike the genre of fat women singing

Here Are the Sonics by The Sonics
Jan 25 2024

I give up on trying to find a funny response to this album, it sapped all the energy in me

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan
Jan 26 2024

my average Bob Dylan rating has increased by 25% given this great 4th addition to the collection of wonderful albums of his I've listened to

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Jan 29 2024

kinda nice but idk, not for me

From Elvis In Memphis by Elvis Presley
Jan 30 2024

The few people that rate this low probably saw the dislike button and thought it said "Dis I Like"!!!

So Much For The City by The Thrills
Jan 31 2024

the calm songs towards the end were more enjoyable than the rest

Queen Of Denmark by John Grant
Feb 02 2024

an entire album in the spirit of the last song wouldve been amazing

Boston by Boston
Feb 03 2024

Still don't like rock

Axis: Bold As Love by Jimi Hendrix
Feb 04 2024

He had one of the smoothest voices in music and Castles Made of Sand is one of the best songs on guitar that exists

Our Aim Is To Satisfy by Red Snapper
Feb 05 2024

when its good its reaaally good but so many of the songs just have so many weird design choices that I cant give it a 4

Ramones by Ramones
Feb 06 2024

it's wank

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Feb 07 2024

dont see the point of this album 34 minutes run time but felt like it went on for too long

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Feb 08 2024

wouldn't even like this if I was an American

Vincebus Eruptum by Blue Cheer
Feb 09 2024

instead of showing us the first album of a genre, what if this list showed us the first GOOD album of a genre

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
Feb 11 2024

It's BHM, I cant give this album anything lower than a 3

I Should Coco by Supergrass
Feb 13 2024

some good songs, some miserable

Youth And Young Manhood by Kings of Leon
Feb 14 2024

listened to this halfassed but what I heard wasnt good enough for me to give it a re-listen with a fair attempt

Oedipus Schmoedipus by Barry Adamson
Feb 15 2024

had to listen to it like 4 times to make up my mind and it got better each time

Feb 16 2024

I thought it was boring but when he started singing Amazing Grace it somehow got worse Americans are so strange

Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
Feb 18 2024

I had not thought about the idea of album covers having their own distinct artistical styles that are influenced by the genre and time that they were made in until I saw this album cover and instantly thought "It's going to be some dogshit hippie rock psychadelic rock garbage" just from my first glance. Not only was I spot on with the genre but also the fact that it was recorded in the hippie era around the latter half of the 60's. Love the last song though

Feb 19 2024

I hate the album cover, I hate the album name, I have the band's name, I have the image they uploaded to represent themselves on spotify, I hate the image they uploaded to their "About us" section on spotify, I hate every single song in the album and I hate each and every track name in this album

A Hard Day's Night by Beatles
Feb 20 2024

Its insane how this album is only 30 minutes long but by the halfway point of the third song I was already checking spotify to see if I was close to the end of the album

The Healer by John Lee Hooker
Feb 22 2024

meh not for me but I reaaaaallly liked the instrumental to the first song

Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Feb 23 2024

not good but not bothersome

1984 by Van Halen
Feb 24 2024

radio sanitized, safe and boring Top Jimmy had a nice instrumental

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Feb 25 2024

didnt like it super much but I liked the vibe if the oasis album with wonderwall is on this list I will probably like it

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Feb 27 2024

back in like 2008 I ran across a guy called Purple Haze on MW2 and, being the child I was back then, thought this was one of the coolest names that I had seen in a while and decided to copy it with my own twist. I ended up running with the name Pink Haze for a month or so until my next fad name came around. It wasnt until a decade had passed and I had started to get more into listening to music that was foreign to me that I found out that Purple Haze was the name of a Hendrix song / a strain of weed. With that said, I don't vibe too much with the album. Unsure if its a 3 or a 2 but since I have heard much worse albums that I have rated a 2 I will give it a halfway rating

Iron Maiden by Iron Maiden
Feb 28 2024

it was unable to catch my interest and at times even annoyed me

The White Room by The KLF
Mar 01 2024

I got a headache halfway through this album and it made my mood pissy

Smash by The Offspring
Mar 03 2024

really not my thing

Here's Little Richard by Little Richard
Mar 04 2024

One of the first albums that, despite not being unlistenable, made me experience great fatigue just listening to it I'm taking this review to very briefly explain the definition of a term I've used and probably will keep using a lot - safe. What I mean when I say something is safe might be self explanatory but the gist of it is when I find that something has been sanitized and scrubbed clean of any potentially element that might be a "love it or hate it" moment. The reason why someone might do this is to make their album or work as palatable to as wide of an audience as possible in order to increase revenue, or possibly due to pressures from record labels or society as a whole which makes the artist surpress their actual interests. I've noticed this a lot with music in the past (likely due to the fact that the methods of music discovery that is present today with youtube, spotify etc didn't exist and you could only make your money if people liked you enough to buy your cd/vinyl) where a lot of it sounds incredibly samey, possibly because thats what you needed to do in order to make a living out of being an artist then. It might also be because of the fact that the only music that survived so long, and as a result ended up on a list filled with a lot of shite like the 1001 albums list, is because it WAS safe, a really wide set of the population __could __ enjoy it and continued to enjoy it for long enough for future generations to know the name of it, i.e. experimental stuff enjoyed by just a small subset of people ended up being lost with time. This is by no means exclusive to old music though, its a very frequent thing even with modern "radio bangers". Just go to the top 100 list on spotify and listen to how incredibly sanitized and uncontroversial every song there is. You would never find a song like Poledo by Dinosaur Jr. anywhere near a list for or by the masses. Anyways, what I mean to say by this is that this album, being a product of its time and the consequences that follow of that, is way too safe almost to the point where it becomes offensive. But, I guess you just had to be there to understand.

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Mar 05 2024

Read one of the top reviews and he said that he didnt like the album when it came out and he still doesnt like it "18 years later". "Wow, it must be an older album then, I wonder when it came out? 97 maybe..." For the first time in my life I felt a sudden feeling of nausea from the rapid passing of time. 2004. Two thousand and four. The album is 19 years old and it came out 2004 The album itself wasnt that much my thing but I really like Somebody Told Me

Elephant Mountain by The Youngbloods
Mar 06 2024

was between a 2 or a 3 for me but I couldnt really get into it, too many songs were just boring. Pleasant to listen to but really boring

Too Rye Ay by Dexys Midnight Runners
Mar 07 2024

took 40 minutes before the first ok song and then no more came very mindnumbing

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Mar 08 2024

I dont have many words to describe this album as a whole but one thing I can say is that the song Bye is one of the most perfect songs I have ever heard in my life. Loved the album. I was glued to the lyrics page during the entirety of it. Fun note is how he in the beginning parts of the album goes into the concept of artists and labels being "safe" and profit-motivated as opposed to prioritizing art and creativity. Side-note, apparently there are two bonus songs on the japanese release version of the album of which the song Figure 8 is among them, I recommend listening to it, its also really good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5iu4vURDWI Fuck man... Bye is so beautiful.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Mar 09 2024

idk I really dont like this but I could forget it was on enough for it to be listenable

Brilliant Corners by Thelonious Monk
Mar 10 2024

too safe for me but the fact that his name is Thelonious Sphere Monk is hilarious, dope name

Spiderland by Slint
Mar 11 2024

Breadcrumb Trail is one of the best songs I've heard this year if not an even longer time span, I probably have 2 hours of time listening to just that song already. It's just a shame that the rest of the album no matter how much I listen to doesnt manage to get my interest in the same way

Mar 12 2024

really couldnt care less not necessarily bad, just boring out of my mind

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Mar 13 2024

would have to pay me to care about a single song on this album

Truth by Jeff Beck
Mar 14 2024

greensleeves made me think of old European cartoons about folklore creatures in the forest and cute stuff like that I really liked the song after this image popped up into my head rest was shite

School's Out by Alice Cooper
Mar 15 2024

it started off weird to the point where I /almost/ liked some of it but then it turned into boomer shit again. I feel a great fatigue

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Mar 16 2024

A song I really liked sampled Down In A Hole Aside from that, I feel as if the amount of dogshit albums we usually get is inflating the ratings of all other albums I listen to. Had this popped up in the first 50 I probably wouldve given this a 2 but I am almost bordering on giving it a 4 just because of how decent it is relatively to the rest of the shit on this list I want to stay objective and distance myself from comparative reviews but its ridiculously hard and getting harder with each boomer rock album that shows up If a Beatles album showed up tomorrow, who knows, I might even... almost kind of like it? Horrowing thought to ponder.

Pretenders by Pretenders
Mar 17 2024

so fucking boring

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Mar 19 2024

very weird but the kind of weird that I can enjoy because its weird and not weird and bad and why is a group of 4 dudes calling themselves Violent Femmes

Odelay by Beck
Mar 20 2024

interesting on the upper end of 3s

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Mar 23 2024

As per my Cheap Thrills review " hope I never have to listen to another band fronted by Janis Joplin The highest praise I can give it is that I could easily forget that it was on" Unfortunately none of these came true for this album

Nixon by Lambchop
Mar 24 2024

some good songs but generally uninteresting or just plain strange

Moss Side Story by Barry Adamson
Mar 25 2024

what the fuck am I listening to

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Mar 26 2024

once again - what the fuck am I listening to

Djam Leelii by Baaba Maal
Mar 27 2024

Everything just blends together after a while

Fromohio by fIREHOSE
Mar 28 2024

The way the band name was stylized, the album name and the opening riff of the first song made me cheer in my head. "Finally a different album" I thought to myself. Unfortunately, that joy was cut short as soon as they started talking and I realized it was going to be another generic and uninteresting rock album

Disintegration by The Cure
Mar 29 2024

Ive probably listened to it 5-6 times, both actively and in the background the songs go in and out just as fast as they come so I cant give it more than a 3 but I think its really decent, some songs are 5s imo

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Mar 30 2024

first album I wish was longer but theres probably good reason for its length

Scott 2 by Scott Walker
Mar 31 2024

aggressively dogshit

She's So Unusual by Cyndi Lauper
Apr 03 2024

perfect music if I were to ever fuck a cougar milf

Sunshine Superman by Donovan
Apr 05 2024

incredibly pretty Legend of a Child Girl Linda made me feel comforted, like I was being held and sung asleep just like when I was a baby

Ill Communication by Beastie Boys
Apr 06 2024

some really abrasive songs and some actually somewhat interesting ones I recommend watching the Beastie Boys documentary. I saw it with my dad two years or so back when it came out and it was pretty interesting

Come Find Yourself by Fun Lovin' Criminals
Apr 07 2024

some really boring songs but some songs that really got me in the mood and im bumping and bopping along with my entire body

Third/Sister Lovers by Big Star
Apr 08 2024

I listened to the first 6 songs of this and had to take a week's break to recuperate Best part was recognising that Dean Blunt sampled For You in his song Lush This is not the first album that he has sampled that shows up on this list

Mothership Connection by Parliament
Apr 09 2024

I caught the vibe but it didn't take me anywhere. Kinda sad The cute phrase of sax that kept playing in the first song is so beautiful

Red Headed Stranger by Willie Nelson
Apr 10 2024

once in a while I get in the mood to listen to this kind of stuff and today was that day cute album

Eternally Yours by The Saints
Apr 11 2024

I hate 98% of this websites user base and their tastes this is so bad

Roxy Music by Roxy Music
Apr 12 2024

despite "music" being mentioned twice in the name and album of this, I'm not sure if this is actually even music

Music Has The Right To Children by Boards of Canada
Apr 14 2024

I listen to a few of these songs regularly but this isnt their best album imo decent thoughbeit

New Wave by The Auteurs
Apr 15 2024

some parts more listenable than others

Hot Buttered Soul by Isaac Hayes
Apr 17 2024

its a 3 but not a 3 not as bad as the previous album that also got a 2 but idk this felt too repetitive

Apr 18 2024

I said this about another public enemy album but many san andreas songs theyre good in that game but as an album its not good. I didnt like anything but those few songs and I would never listen to this album again

Medúlla by Björk
Apr 19 2024

it's strange even for björk too much acapella

Triangle by The Beau Brummels
Apr 21 2024

decent walking music but not good on its own

I See A Darkness by Bonnie "Prince" Billy
Apr 24 2024

I hate when albums only available on youtube One good song and a bunch of tolerable ones I guess

The New Tango by Astor Piazzolla
Apr 26 2024

2 never cared for italian "music"

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths
Apr 27 2024

2 decent songs but wholly unremarkable

Drunk by Thundercat
Apr 28 2024

Back when I was just beginning my journey in widening my music taste and listening to new stuff, some of the songs on this album were some of the first few things that served as the stepping stone for me. I remember listening to Walk On By, Friend Zone and Them Changes until I had exhausted them so much I couldnt listen to any of them anymore but it definitely got me more accustomed to listening to jazz. I'm glad I didnt listen to the entire album back then because I probably wouldnt have liked like I do now, now that my tastes have changed and matured a bit more My new favourite song on the album is A Fan's Mail

Rapture by Anita Baker
May 05 2024

during no point did I think "Man, I wish I was paying more attention to this music"

Fred Neil by Fred Neil
May 06 2024

its ait Everybody's Talkin' works better like this

Connected by Stereo MC's
May 09 2024

I liked it but it wasnt my thing

Psychocandy by The Jesus And Mary Chain
May 10 2024

All the negative reviews complain about the distortion and all the positive reviews praise the distortion I think the distortion and the shoegaze-y vibes of it make it enjoyable I do however always hate these "Extended Version" "Unabridged Release" "2005 Remaster Re-release Expansion Version" albums because they always add another 30 minutes of songs that weren't good enough to be on the album in the first place and still aren't. Only 3 stars if I take into account the extra bullshit

Guero by Beck
May 11 2024

forgettable

Blunderbuss by Jack White
May 12 2024

don't remember a second

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
May 13 2024

some interesting parts but not enough

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
May 14 2024

Can't believe this album singlehandedly ended segregation

The Coral by The Coral
May 15 2024

I dont get it

Superunknown by Soundgarden
May 16 2024

I wasnt into it at first but from Head Down and onwards it was amazing. It made me think of how well this album would go together with the joining together of hands, not in marriage, but solely for the purpose of sating the fleshly desires of the soul. Indulging in lustful hedonism for no purpose other than to drown in pleasure for but a few moments, together. tldr: I want to fuck to this album

Smile by Brian Wilson
May 17 2024

Cant tell if this is a band just doing covers? Not my thing

The Bends by Radiohead
May 18 2024

I felt as if some songs didnt transition well into other ones, as if they werent meant to be listened to consecutively like an album is but rather individually but they were still good enough on their own

Scott 4 by Scott Walker
May 19 2024

it wasnt ~~that~~ bad I didnt mind it being on but I didnt like a single moment of it

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
May 20 2024

the first few songs werent that good but i liked his stage presence and how cheerful the prisoners were

May 21 2024

meh I realized long ago that the only way to listen to The Smiths and have an enjoyable time is to listen to pre-made "Best Of" albums. If you do that, The Smiths are really good. If not, then they aren't.

Ray Of Light by Madonna
May 23 2024

started out strong but fell to a 3

Slipknot by Slipknot
May 24 2024

I actually didnt like it enough for a 3 but the fact that it wasnt some generic shit UK punk or 70s slop made me be okay with listening to it despite of this

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
May 25 2024

background music

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
May 26 2024

started out decent but it just becomes noise the first song is amazing and was a really good fit for the TLoU series

Germfree Adolescents by X-Ray Spex
May 29 2024

the only good part how cute she sounded as she said "warrior warrior warry-warrior"

Broken English by Marianne Faithfull
May 30 2024

went from a 1 to a 2 by the time I had listened to 1.5x of the album pointless lyrics and very "I'm such a unique person" art student disease

In Utero by Nirvana
May 31 2024

I liked it but its strange

Moving Pictures by Rush
Jun 02 2024

listened to this once and forgot to rate it. I did very much not enjoy listening to it a second time

Frampton Comes Alive by Peter Frampton
Jun 03 2024

boring but I liked the acoustic guitars soundscape

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Jun 04 2024

didn't like at all he sings like I had to sing in front if people and I was insecure about my singing and thus would sing bad and goofy on purpose to cope that I was just pretending to be bad

Heaven Or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins
Jun 05 2024

I love this album. It's one of the closest you can get to hearing angelic hymns Listened to it many times prior and will listen to it many times again

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jun 06 2024

Otherside is a 4.5, rest is decent at best

Music by Madonna
Jun 08 2024

some decent, some poorer I liked the instrumental parts more than her singing

Arrival by ABBA
Jun 09 2024

Never liked Abba. Genuinely never. Their best work is a single throwaway piano section at the end of Chiquitita; everything else is just annoying to listen to. One of the few albums/genres/bands that, despite not being as harsh to the ears as some other albums, still makes me way more annoyed when I am forced to listen to it, be it that they are on the speakers in a grocery store or elsewhere. Maybe it's just the last remaining piece of my childhood that I refuse to let go off, my rebellious youth of disliking the music my parents listened to. Either way, I do support them disbanding and refusing to reunite the group.

All Things Must Pass by George Harrison
Jun 10 2024

Following up on my /Band On The Run -- Paul McCartney and Wings/ review, I can also conclude through process of elimination that George Harrison was not the reason why The Beatles sucked so much. Let It Down was a 5, replayed that song many many times. Was toeing between a 4 or a 3 for this album but the 2nd half of the double album let me down

...The Dandy Warhols Come Down by The Dandy Warhols
Jun 11 2024

I really liked the shoegazey songs and the one where they sing a lot I don't care for but they were not annoying to listen to

Heroes by David Bowie
Jun 13 2024

Don't like 'em

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
Jun 14 2024

This is the Katy Perry of rock. It's way too safe and I don't like it a single bit. With that said, it wasn't too bad on the ears so it gets a 2

Ragged Glory by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Jun 15 2024

every song sounds the same and every song sucked balls except for Farmer John, which was funny

I Against I by Bad Brains
Jun 16 2024

strange but sometimes ok

Jun 17 2024

Might be my mood but I really grooved with this Saturday Night's Alright (For Fighting) is such a nice song but I actually prefer the Nickelback cover of it (linked below). I remember back when I was ~9 years old and saw a video of Battlefield 1942 with that cover on youtube. Great kino but I havent been able to find it ever since. Here's Nickelback's cover https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7DL1FUQY9U

Mott by Mott The Hoople
Jun 19 2024

zzzzzzzzzz

Jun 20 2024

Space Child is exactly the kind of music that I love hearing from Frank Zappa. ...wait, this isn't by Zappa? Who the hell are Spirit? Anyways, Space Child is a 6/5 but the rest was pretty okay at best

Shleep by Robert Wyatt
Jun 21 2024

Actually a funny album

Faith by George Michael
Jun 22 2024

too safe, radio sterile

Mask by Bauhaus
Jun 23 2024

Strange. Only word I have for it. ... kinda like it too

Back to Mystery City by Hanoi Rocks
Jun 24 2024

These bands need to stop making intro songs so good that they then cannot deliver on making the rest of the album even close to as good Intro song was a 5 but the rest was just so boring that I'm giving it a 1 because I am disappointed

Hysteria by Def Leppard
Jun 25 2024

Music to drink your first beer to 😎 (not too much though, it's a school night!!)

Country Life by Roxy Music
Jun 26 2024

Hot music was mid though

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Jun 27 2024

ok driving music but not that good

Destroyer by KISS
Jun 28 2024

1 good first song and then 9 dreadful remaining ones

Sound Affects by The Jam
Jun 30 2024

If I had to describe this album with one word it would be 'horrendous'. The best part about that word is that it reaches its 'end' faster than the album did

Rattlesnakes by Lloyd Cole And The Commotions
Jul 01 2024

I enjoyed my time listening to this

Fisherman's Blues by The Waterboys
Jul 02 2024

I listened to this 2 days ago and forgot to rate it but it was cute

Phrenology by The Roots
Jul 04 2024

Listened to this thrice. Would've given it a 5 if I rated it after the first because I am absolutely in love with the R&B and jazz elements of this album's later half. Though, when I relistened to it, I was reminded of how I didn't really like the first 7 beyond them being listenable. Strong 4

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre
Jul 05 2024

Listened to this once in 2020 when I was in my "music discovery" phase Back then I thought it was okay, most likely because I was a bit pretentious in my music taste, but nowadays I think it's underwhelming

Behaviour by Pet Shop Boys
Jul 07 2024

They were as a matter of fact being REALLY boring

Devotional Songs by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Jul 08 2024

There was a moment where I thought "Oh, it's started replaying from the start. Thank god that was such a short album." just to see that I was only halfway through Every song sounds the exact same and I didn't like any of them.

Play by Moby
Jul 11 2024

it was ok but mostly didnt interest me that much. some good songs

Alien Lanes by Guided By Voices
Jul 12 2024

Felt like watching a "Best Trailers of 2017 Hollywood Movies!" playlist. The songs are fortunately short enough to not remember but when my half-way fatigue kicked in and I checked the remaining amount of songs and saw how many there were, it did not instill confidence in me

Jul 13 2024

listened to this a few times now and I kinda like it. Thought it would be too long for me but even some of the interludes were fun. Favourites were Reset and Prototype

Wonderful Rainbow by Lightning Bolt
Jul 14 2024

Listened to this 2 times because I forgot to write the review the first time around The first time around I listened to the first half as I was cooking and I thought it was pretty good. A bit later I had a headache and decided to listen to the latter half and thought it was one of the worst things I had heard. Almost gave it a 1 as a result. Relistened to the whole album now in a neutral state and I kinda like it more than before, almost to the point where I could see myself giving it a 4. Not quite, I could appreciate it

Don't Stand Me Down by Dexys Midnight Runners
Jul 15 2024

Listened to it with my dad. "It's bad but at least Come On Eileen is coming up soon" By the end of the album I checked to see how many songs were left. There was 1 song remaining and there was no trace of their single recognisable song. What is the point of this album being on the list when this band is a one hit wonder with a singer who can't sing?

Yeezus by Kanye West
Jul 16 2024

Ahead of its time and leagues more listenable, likeable and enjoyable than probably 90% of albums on this list. Incredibly mid in comparison to TLoP but that's an unfair comparison given how good TLoP is

In Our Heads by Hot Chip
Jul 17 2024

For once, an album I can understand why it is on this list. This sounds so ahead of the time it was released in. I don't know where I have heard Flutes before but it's so good and I was scratching my head trying to figure out why I recognised it when it started playing

Jul 18 2024

Way better than 95% of 3s I have given but not enough for a 4 Heard many of the hits before

Ingenue by k.d. lang
Jul 19 2024

smooth, pleasant, enjoyable, listenable one of the rare times that this kind of music would get a 4. It didnt give me much but it was so relaxing

The Wildest! by Louis Prima
Jul 20 2024

mindnumbingly boring but listenable so its a 2

Graceland by Paul Simon
Jul 21 2024

if I was a bookworm whimsical woman living on my own in a bustling city that never sleeps, I mightve given this a 4

Justified by Justin Timberlake
Jul 22 2024

the first half is so sex, he literally just frontloaded all the sex appeal because no one could handle more than that without exploding the latter half is so boring so its a 3 instead of a 4

Scissor Sisters by Scissor Sisters
Jul 23 2024

"The first album of a genre - the record that defined a sound" is an album archetype that we have encountered a lot so far on this list. This must be the first case of the opposite, the last album ever made in a genre. At least I hope so.

Odessa by Bee Gees
Jul 24 2024

Only liked Give Your Best because it was a folk song

Sunshine Hit Me by The Bees
Jul 25 2024

They should stick to singing in english

OK by Talvin Singh
Jul 26 2024

As if an indian weeb had joined the taliban. Gives me those vibes for some reason

GI by Germs
Jul 27 2024

If you like this album – FUCK YOU

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club
Jul 28 2024

My dad owns this on CD, it's in his car in fact. Due to this, I have listened to this multiple times since I first heard it back in ~2017 or so. Listened to it another 2 times for this review just to make sure. There's unfortunately a reason why I only remember Chan Chan, or why every time I search "Buena Vista Social Club" I only ever turn on Chan Chan. The album itself isn't bad, nor did I experience a single moment that I disliked, it's just that the rest of the album does nothing for me. Like a fat stripper or plain rice.

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park
Jul 29 2024

One of the few things that I heard as a youngling that has only gotten better as I have grown. This is in itself very impressive to me given that it was already a 5/5 to begin with

Private Dancer by Tina Turner
Jul 30 2024

Hope the strip club closes down

Clube Da Esquina by Milton Nascimento
Jul 31 2024

I have a strong feeling this album is something like sung poetry that I just cannot understand. I was going to listen to this album about a month ago when I found out about it but put it off since I shortly thereafter saw that it was included on this list. As an overwhelming opinion, it's a nice album to listen to. I don't think it would've made any difference if I had listened to it then or now but I liked it. The first song is incredibly pretty

Illmatic by Nas
Aug 01 2024

Tried listening to this on my way to school in 2018 when a pair of mormon boys sat across me on the bus and started conversing with me. I never ended up finishing the album but whenever I think of it now I think of them. I probably wouldn't have liked the album to this extent if I had finished it back then, so maybe they were secretly doing me a favour

In It For The Money by Supergrass
Aug 02 2024

My review for Supergrass' 'I Should Coco' holds true for this one as well. However, 6 months of thinking has led me to another point I would like to raise: Supergrass? More like super ass.

My review was initially going to be "Michael Jackson for the people who can't forgive MJ for having once been black." I later realized that this guy is also black and that the album didn't sound like Michael Jackson at all past the first half. Still didn't like it, but that would've been a colossally incorrect review had I not came to my senses

Aug 04 2024

it was pretty okay but lacked oomph. no hits and nothing that stood out

The Hissing Of Summer Lawns by Joni Mitchell
Aug 05 2024

nice mellow music. bland but acceptable. would wag a baby to sleep with this on but I would change the record before putting another one into my wife

Scum by Napalm Death
Aug 06 2024

and it's still better than The Beatles

Woodface by Crowded House
Aug 07 2024

Elliott Smith but not as enjoyable Would listen again though

Station To Station by David Bowie
Aug 08 2024

Kinda okay actually. first Bowie record that I didn't feel anguish throughout

Fun House by The Stooges
Aug 09 2024

gets a 1 because I've already heard 500 albums that sound exactly like this

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Aug 10 2024

the beats had me head bobbing at times but it wasn't that good imo

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Aug 11 2024

meh. 3rd song is decent and had it in one of my playlists already but rest is a snoozer

The Sounds Of India by Ravi Shankar
Aug 12 2024

I appreciate him giving explanations for what characterizes the style of music Good music to zone out to, it was much better than expected

Lazer Guided Melodies by Spiritualized
Aug 13 2024

genuinely cant decide what to give this album Hearing the bass come in during Take Your Time for the first time was an insane feeling, and having Shine a Light right after that was cathartic and really powerful but the rest of the album just makes me zone out so much I cant remember a second of it despite listening to the whole thing like 3-4 times Idk, 4 just cus I liked those two mentioned songs that much

The Blueprint by JAY Z
Aug 15 2024

I felt the exact same way tbh.

Lam Toro by Baaba Maal
Aug 16 2024

meh. more unique songs than the last album of his we listened to but still not much to care about

Aug 17 2024

strong tfw no gf vibes. would listen again but only when cuddling in such a scenario. a few songs I found really good though

Armed Forces by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Aug 18 2024

BAD 1 COULDNT GOON TO THIS AT ALL

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Aug 19 2024

this album and the one prior to it were headache inducing

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Aug 21 2024

palatable but boring boomer tunes

Space Ritual by Hawkwind
Aug 22 2024

at one point I had forgotten every song except the one that I was currently listening to and thought, maybe I'll give this one a 2. Then I realized I had 45 minutes left and it went back to being awful every song thereafter

If You're Feeling Sinister by Belle & Sebastian
Aug 23 2024

listened to 1 song and then turned it off to go listen to the Plants Vs. Zombies soundtrack instead finished that and came back to this album. think I wouldn't have been able to get through it otherwise

Aug 24 2024

boring sappy waste thought this would be Celine dion for a full 5 seconds

69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields
Aug 25 2024

possibly the worst thing I have ever heard. not just the length but every single song was absolutely dreadful somehow I would rather listen to the Beatles

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Aug 26 2024

really joyful Xica Da Silva was my favourite

Grievous Angel by Gram Parsons
Aug 27 2024

bit slow but I could forget it was on

Now I Got Worry by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
Aug 28 2024

I like unlistenable music but this just felt wannabe

At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band
Aug 30 2024

okay for being this kind of music

The Undertones by The Undertones
Aug 31 2024

if these people weren't born during the 50s they would've had to get real jobs

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Sep 01 2024

About as interesting as listening to my microwave heat up my Garfunkel and Oates porridge breakfast in the morning

Eagles by Eagles
Sep 02 2024

earlybird was fun but meh

Sep 03 2024

Finished Eagles - Eagles just before this and this was basically like listening to the same album but worse

Permission to Land by The Darkness
Sep 04 2024

so bad it turned funny. actually a terror album shame I can't rate it for funniness or it would get a 3

...And Justice For All by Metallica
Sep 07 2024

more bearable than 90% of the stuff the latest weeks but I cba I only liked the slow part in To Live Is To Die

Sep 08 2024

I didnt outright /like/ it but I appreciate it. for once it wasn't the same and I enjoyed the process of listening to it

Reign In Blood by Slayer
Sep 09 2024

I dont understand how anyone could find this "horrowing" but it definitely isn't interesting

Sep 10 2024

This is the first time thus far that I am changing my rating based on something that wasnt just my opinion of the musical parts. I was firm on thinking it had been a 2-ish experience until "I don't cut my fingernails so it clicks when I play the piano" was spoken. I found that so gross that I had to change the score Sometimes I wonder if I am just doing this entire 1001 albums challenge wrong. Are other people also listening to the entire album from start to end? I've read that some people just listen up until the end of the first chorus before going on to the next song to get a 'general idea' of how they find the song. Is everyone doing this? Albums like this are genuinely unlistenable and youre telling me almost 11.000 people have listened to it? You are nuts.

Orbital 2 by Orbital
Sep 12 2024

I love electronic music but some of these songs were just annoying Walk Now... almost single handedly sank the score by 1 star

#1 Record by Big Star
Sep 13 2024

#1 Record on my HATE list. No, it wasn't actually that bad, honestly speaking, it was just boring

Bitte Orca by Dirty Projectors
Sep 14 2024

It was weird but it fit the mood as I was having a nightcelwalk stargazing

Brothers by The Black Keys
Sep 15 2024

Crazy how these guys have this amount of plays on their songs and I have somehow never heard a single one of these once before Probably for the better, given how much I liked them

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road by Lucinda Williams
Sep 17 2024

I have some amount less than 584000 hours spent awake left in my life and wasting even just 1 hour on listening to this brings me great anxiety

Risque by CHIC
Sep 18 2024

I have some amount less than 583992 hours spent awake left in my life and having spent 36 minutes listening to this has been a great use of my time It's insane how much my mood improved when the first song came on. It might be impossible to not be in the mood hearing that. This happiness buff lasted throughout the entire album and I was half-dancing in the rain and singing along with the bassline just jamming along to the rhythm

California by American Music Club
Sep 19 2024

I skipped over this album 50 reviews ago because I couldnt listen to it during my commute (due to region locked content) but now that I have finally remembered and gotten around to listening to it I can confidently say that I didnt miss out on anything

American Pie by Don McLean
Sep 20 2024

The American Pie that I like has more boobs in it

Life's Too Good by The Sugarcubes
Sep 21 2024

It's like Björk but the only good part is Björk's singing

Mr. Tambourine Man by The Byrds
Sep 23 2024

If not for the fact that this was released 1965 I wouldve thought that this was an album of all covers I guess it doesnt sound that bad for 1965 but we live in the modern times now, gramps, it doesn't hold up anymore

Feast of Wire by Calexico
Sep 26 2024

the b side clears the a side out the water but it still wasn't enough to carry it out of the sub average grade

Dub Housing by Pere Ubu
Sep 27 2024

I miss when this album generated real music

Apocalypse Dudes by Turbonegro
Sep 30 2024

The radio sanitized slop you'd hear during a skateboard montage in a coming of age Hollywood movie almost gave it a two because I liked Humiliation Street but Good Head ruined it for me a again shortly thereafter

Darklands by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Oct 01 2024

most of my reviews are just repeats of the same 5 complaints. one thing they have in common with this album

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
Oct 02 2024

never heard the full album before but it has not aged well I like the message and the other songs I've heard in gta but man this album was kinda harsh on the ears

Abbey Road by Beatles
Oct 03 2024

one two three four five six seven all cute tokfus go to heaven I almost kinda liked this, which is a feat given what I think of the Beatles favourite song of this album (since years ago) is the one about bonbi

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Oct 04 2024

surely the next album on the list that I listen to won't sound the same as the last 500

Dr. Octagonecologyst by Dr. Octagon
Oct 05 2024

at least it's different from the rest of the 1000 albums on the list

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Oct 06 2024

Beatleshaterbros.... they can't keep getting away with these 3s.... MICHELLE, MA BELLE

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Oct 07 2024

It only took 531 albums but it finally clicked for me. This list isn't about 1001 albums that are worth spending your time listening to (given that the vast majority of them are complete wastes of time and do not sound pleasant to the ears at all) but 1001 albums that you /should/ have listened to for the purpose of partaking in musical history and overall general knowledge of what has been. Even if this album does not hold a candle to anything that has been made since then, I can understand how this guy was literally the coolest thing since sliced bread when he was active and touring. To move on to my review of the album, I can't believe this guy was the Mr. Beast of the 50's, that's crazy

Oct 08 2024

Five worthless albums of his on this list so far and I shiver at the thought of a sixth

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Oct 09 2024

Two reviews ago, during my 532nd review, I wrote a little statement about it finally "clicking" for me and how I only just now understood the reason for all of these albums having been included on the list, even the ones I did not personally like and I was able to understand the cultural impact that some albums have had on musical culture as a whole. I rescind my statement. Since that far gone time (yesterday evening) I have listened to yet two more albums on this list of 1001 albums you MUST hear before you die. Those albums were *Bringing It All Back Home' by Bob Dylan and this album that I am reviewing right now. I no longer understand why any of these two horrendous albums are on any list of albums someone ought to have heard according to the music critics and authors of the book(s). I only now realize that it was specifically Elvis Presley that I could understand the cultural importance of; almost all of the other worthless albums on this long list of sonic torture carry no importance and are only there because the author heard these albums once upon a time at a friend's brother's girlfriend's nephew's party that he had attended at the time and the memory of ingesting his first shot of alcohol (4,2% ABV Coors Lite) and getting "totally wicked!!" during the 80s imprinted the names of these groups and their songs into his mind. For my review of this album in particular, the only song I kind of "liked" (very loosely stated) was the one where they weren't trying to sing properly, which somehow made it the most well-sung

Histoire De Melody Nelson by Serge Gainsbourg
Oct 10 2024

maybe I just didn't notice any of the storytelling but this was just music to me

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Oct 11 2024

actually made me angry when I realised what band this was. it's just a bunch of shitty cover versions of already boring music

Chore of Enchantment by Giant Sand
Oct 13 2024

a horrible soundtrack to roadtrip to punishing sun was the only song that didn't make me want to turn it off. kinda liked it tbh

Fetch The Bolt Cutters by Fiona Apple
Oct 14 2024

This album is just what the insufferable chicks I have an irrational list towards would listen to. By the end of that Bolt Cutters song my dogs were wondering why I was listening to a domestic abuse recording

Oct 15 2024

Liked the first few songs but after that it just became noise SOME TIMES I FEEL I WANT TO (👏 👏) TURN THIS OFF

Melody A.M. by Röyksopp
Oct 16 2024

My biggest problem with good albums on this list is the fact that I can't just be one-and-done with them, I have to listen to them three or four times before I'm satisfied. Had only heard Eple prior to this but it wasn't even close to the best song of the album

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
Oct 17 2024

they sound like they were having fun recording this but I wasn't as I was listening to it SSX Tricky carried that song

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Oct 18 2024

listened to his song Farmer John again. much better than this album

Duck Rock by Malcolm McLaren
Oct 19 2024

weird I must've zoned out because of the nice first song because the first sentence I actually heard was about high school girls

The Grand Tour by George Jones
Oct 20 2024

Was in the mood to listen to sex-music and this album has not once been fucked to by anyone

1999 by Prince
Oct 21 2024

radio music

The Modern Lovers by The Modern Lovers
Oct 22 2024

forgettable is the highest praise I have for it

Diamond Life by Sade
Oct 24 2024

radio music.... for la noire detective movie women

Fever Ray by Fever Ray
Oct 25 2024

made me slightly uncomfortable but a good kind. Kinda björkish

Gris Gris by Dr. John
Oct 26 2024

not real music

Oct 27 2024

Incredibly unpleasant music but... I kind of enjoyed it Given that I have listened to the last song like 10 times I think I have to give this a 2star

Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt
Oct 28 2024

weirdo music desu

Arc Of A Diver by Steve Winwood
Oct 29 2024

I was kinda digging it, felt the groove at times

Colour By Numbers by Culture Club
Oct 30 2024

boring beyond belief. almost made me sad that I didn't forget my headphones

The Specials by The Specials
Oct 31 2024

the Beatles but somehow worse

Supa Dupa Fly by Missy Elliott
Nov 01 2024

Incredibly sexy music. Don't know a single word of the lyrics but the beats were almost hypnotic; I was completely locked in during the entire hour. The lyrics sounded nice too but I listened to them as another instrument in the track rather than a singer saying things. Almost a 5, all things considered

Phaedra by Tangerine Dream
Nov 02 2024

Before realizing that spotify only had the last 10 minutes of the album available for me, I had zoned out and listened to those two songs for about 40 minutes without realizing. Electronic music has that effect on me and I love it Listened to the full album and it was a bit moodier in full than it was in it's abridged version but I still enjoyed it somewhat

Halcyon Digest by Deerhunter
Nov 03 2024

it's a high 3 and pretty interesting

Rid Of Me by PJ Harvey
Nov 04 2024

Horrible! Not one enjoyable moment

Solid Air by John Martyn
Nov 05 2024

fell asleep halfway through and woke up 35 min later went back to listen to what I missed and honestly they weren't that good

Fly Or Die by N.E.R.D
Nov 06 2024

I heard breakout randomly whilst working out 2 years and probably listened to it over 100 times that year. first time listening to any of the other songs but they were all right. liked Lemon and Jump the most aside from Breakout

Nov 07 2024

Forgot how the rest of the album sounded because I listened to Wear You Out for 2 hours straight when I came to it; until my headphones ran out of battery. I probably thought the rest of the album was a 2 given how unmemorable it was but Wear You Out carried it to a middle 3

Highly Evolved by The Vines
Nov 08 2024

reminded me of The Downward Spiral at times but idk it wasnt that interesting

Goodbye And Hello by Tim Buckley
Nov 09 2024

Listening to it was nice. I appreciated it because it was different but I disliked it because it was bad

The Dreaming by Kate Bush
Nov 10 2024

Weirdo music for women I want to date The instrumentals for Pull out the pin and There goes a tenner remind me of indie metroidvania titles

Architecture And Morality by Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark
Nov 11 2024

I do not consider the sounds of microwaving popcorn and hammers beating on empty containers to be music

Third by Soft Machine
Nov 12 2024

This was one of those albums where the first few minutes are so harsh that I kind of zone out and listen to it passively and it wasn't until the jazz kicked in about 10 minutes later that I snapped back into listening actively. I loved the remaining part of the album so much that I had to listen to it again to see if I actually remembered right that the start of the album just sounded like garish noise. (except for that weird synthy part halfway through, that was too long)

Beach Samba by Astrud Gilberto
Nov 13 2024

I could listen to this again but I don't think I want to. it's too inoffensive. I think I've just heard too much bodsa nova / samba already

BEYONCÉ by Beyoncé
Nov 14 2024

Beyonce and Rihanna possess the same space in my mind, probably due to me hearing them at the same point in my life and thinking that their music was similar. However, every time I hear any of their songs I am starkly reminded that I like Rihanna's music more.

Bummed by Happy Mondays
Nov 15 2024

it was shoegaze at points and then i liked it and then it sounded like the british music that I hate at other points and then I disliked it

McCartney by Paul McCartney
Nov 16 2024

This was known since before but Paul is not the reason why the Beatles suck. Anyways, I misheard the lyrics to the end of Oo You and thought he said "Look like a woman, ooh Dress like a lady, ooh Talk like a baby, cunny, cunny, cunny, cunny, uuoohh Love you like a woman, ooh" and it shocked me greatly

Lady In Satin by Billie Holiday
Nov 17 2024

Perhaps the slowest album on the list. Made me remember "69 Love Songs" and how painful of an experience that was

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Nov 18 2024

The perfect amount of drone and emotion. Like 1,5 years ago when I first discovered this album, I spammed the everliving shit out of it. Still love it. It surprises me with how much I love it given that it took >10 tries to just get past the first few songs on their "Isn't Anything" album

Rejoicing In The Hands by Devendra Banhart
Nov 20 2024

Listened to it 3 times, each with a few days inbetween each session. Kept forgetting to rate it after each time. I really really enjoyed listening to Tit Smoking in the Temple of Artesan Mimicry. Been on repeat for hours Shame about the rest of the album

The La's by The La's
Nov 21 2024

Never wouldve imagined the album from which "There She Goes" came from sounded like....this

Boy In Da Corner by Dizzee Rascal
Nov 22 2024

not my thing didnt like the beats, the flow, nothing really.

Henry's Dream by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Nov 23 2024

talk about BORING

Rip It Up by Orange Juice
Nov 24 2024

The last song managed to turn my opinion on this. I like that song

Like A Prayer by Madonna
Nov 25 2024

realized this was going to be real boring by the middle if the first song

The Cars by The Cars
Nov 27 2024

Speaking of car-related subreddits, did you know that there's a subreddits called /DragonsFuckingCars/? Yeah. Deserved.

The Visitors by ABBA
Nov 28 2024

Thank god I was born in le wrong generation so I didn't have to listen to this dreg growing up

Treasure by Cocteau Twins
Nov 29 2024

not my favourite cocteau twins album but I love my wife Elizabeth Fraser

Ocean Rain by Echo And The Bunnymen
Dec 01 2024

I cant put my thoughts on this album to words without using derogatory slurs so I'll stay quiet

Under Construction by Missy Elliott
Dec 02 2024

not close to as good as the other album, this one had no hits so it was mostly between a 2 and a 3 but ill be nice

S.F. Sorrow by The Pretty Things
Dec 04 2024

the beatles if they werent bad

The Nightfly by Donald Fagen
Dec 05 2024

that first song was like a nuclear bomb of endorphins and then the rest of the album had no budget left to wow me

Unhalfbricking by Fairport Convention
Dec 06 2024

I think i listened to this 3 months ago and forgot to review it. Mid then, mid now.

Idlewild by Everything But The Girl
Dec 07 2024

Ive never really been a fan of the whole soft acoustic guitar and mellow singing thing but women eat that shit up

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Dec 08 2024

Great. Similar to that one blue Childish Gambino album

Teenage Head by Flamin' Groovies
Dec 09 2024

an hour of this? nigga...

Let It Be by The Replacements
Dec 11 2024

dont remember a second but I know I wasn't into it

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Dec 12 2024

not my album

Jack Takes the Floor by Ramblin' Jack Elliott
Dec 13 2024

I don't get Folk/Country singers' fixation with calling their songs "lullabies" but this album sure made me want to fall asleep

GREY Area by Little Simz
Dec 14 2024

It was decently all right. Kinda thought the lyrics were cringe but at least one of them birther that one audio

Back to Basics by Christina Aguilera
Dec 15 2024

Just noise and not the good kind

Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones
Dec 16 2024

I've tried to listen to this 7 times but each time I have turned it off before the first song was over Aggressively uninteresting and somewhat befouling the soul

Dec 18 2024

it was all right. kinda cute at times I replayed the "Where We're Calling From --> N.Y." combo so many times. That first song and the transition into the second one was heavenly

Giant Steps by The Boo Radleys
Dec 19 2024

meh azarus was decent

Street Life by The Crusaders
Dec 20 2024

The Crusaders made one of my favourite songs but unfortunately it wasnt on this album it was pretty good, leaning towards a 4 but I cant rate it a 4 sadly. just not enough

Tank Battles by Dagmar Krause
Dec 21 2024

I am 15 songs deep but I already know that I won't change my mind and I need this opportunity to vent my emotions in order to be able to finish this album. This is one of the only times I have ever felt tense listening to music. I have not been able to relax a single time since I put this album on. This is genuinely one of the worst sounding pieces of music I have ever heard in my life. I despise this album. As of the time I am writing this, I am quite a few albums behind what has yet been generated but I know, if this album is the first album I had waiting for me after a long hiatus, I would probably have quit completely. If this was the first album in the project, I would have quit. This is aggressively horrible. Not a single moment of joy, not a morsel, no, not a single note sits right. Her singing is dissonant many times throughout the album and I am not sure she knows what being on key is to begin with. I genuinely expected that writing this review midway through would feel cathartic in some way but it has only served to exasperate my discomfort, as it has made me become e ven more aware of the horrors currently playing. As my response to some of the global reviews, I have to conclude mine with this: In many cases, when I have read global (or group) reviews that talk about what song they thought was their favourite, I am often so inclined to go back to check which song that specifically was; to see if I agree with them. Not this time. I refuse to even as much as open the tab from which YouTube is playing the music, for fear of learning the names and exposing myself to more elements of this album than necessary. There are but two more words that I can use to describe the feeling inside me as I near the final songs of this album. Fuck you.

Dec 22 2024

Kinda fresh but I got really annoyed at that one flute song halfway through

Central Reservation by Beth Orton
Dec 23 2024

Half-liked it and half-beared it. Some songs were really beautiful but the rest I couldnt care for so its a 3 Incredibly pretty album art. Would marry and give the princess treatment for the rest of our lives

Faust IV by Faust
Dec 24 2024

hellllllla weird but I welcome it

Trafalgar by Bee Gees
Dec 25 2024

decent for what it is but thats not very

Morrison Hotel by The Doors
Dec 27 2024

They're called The Doors because that's where you're headed when they start playing where you're at

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder
Dec 28 2024

Wouldve given it a 5 solely on the fact that Ordinary Pain was a perfect song IF that song did not include the switch-up second part

Imperial Bedroom by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Dec 29 2024

Leagues better than any other Costello & The Attractions album so far (not a high bar)

Trio by Dolly Parton
Dec 31 2024

kinda mid, dont rwemember antyhing

Hms Fable by Shack
Jan 01 2025

kinda cute at times leaning more towards a 4 than a 2

Jan 02 2025

Really nice actually

Oar by Alexander 'Skip' Spence
Jan 04 2025

I like it

Your Arsenal by Morrissey
Jan 09 2025

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOSQFrf7UtI

Shalimar by Rahul Dev Burman
Jan 11 2025

The first song has a train horn as an instrument. What is it with indians and trains?

The Good, The Bad & The Queen by The Good, The Bad & The Queen
Jan 15 2025

It took about 4-5 songs before I realized that it was the singer from Gorillaz Shocked me, innit

Melodrama by Lorde
Jan 16 2025

kinda nice, definitely listenable for being pop music but it wasnt particularly special i saw a pic of her Solar Power album and I got distracted

Copper Blue by Sugar
Jan 18 2025

listenable as background music but every time i focused in on it, it was ass

Endtroducing..... by DJ Shadow
Jan 19 2025

Wanted to listen to this 2 years ago but I found out that it was on the list so I held off I have been listening to it for the past 5 hours, it's so fucking tight.

Actually by Pet Shop Boys
Jan 20 2025

Actually... okay

Meat Puppets II by Meat Puppets

Only liked Aurora Borealis and Aura Borealis

Damaged by Black Flag
Jan 22 2025

Rubbish drivel

Scream, Dracula, Scream by Rocket From The Crypt
Jan 26 2025

They thought they could compose 3 songs and then sell a 14 song record with only those 3? Clever

Groovin' by The Young Rascals
Jan 27 2025

Music like this is like being molested. You don't like a bit of it even if you find yourself subconsciously tapping your foot along to the rhythm at times. At least you're happy it'll be over in a short time

Make Yourself by Incubus
Jan 30 2025

can never go wrong with a bit of t his stuff its a strong 3 but just below a weak 4

Being There by Wilco
Jan 31 2025

I will reveal my zoomer-card here but the only thing I noticed was that the Meet The Engineer song was based off of Someone Else's Song

Arular by M.I.A.

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Feb 05 2025

I had no idea Stewie Wonder sounded like this. pretty smooth

American Beauty by Grateful Dead
Feb 13 2025

Thought this was going to be a blues band this sucks even more than I thought it would

Group Sex by Circle Jerks
Feb 16 2025

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Feb 19 2025

kinda meh softboy music until Chicago and Casimir Pulaski Day, which were really nice, then it returns to being kinda meh

Punishing Kiss by Ute Lemper
Feb 20 2025

I have said it countless times and I suspect I will have to say it at least 20 more times before we are done. I hate this genre of "Woman that sings with lots of vibrato and she sounds moody and mysterious" because it always sounds like shit

Dog Man Star by Suede
Feb 25 2025

took a while but I fell asleep to this

Butterfly by Mariah Carey
Feb 26 2025

meh, I dont like this

Honky Tonk Heroes by Waylon Jennings

unfathonmavly boring. cant even be arsed fixing that typo is how bored i am

Sweet Baby James by James Taylor
Mar 01 2025

1001 albums that sound identical to each other at least this one was a bit mellow

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
Mar 04 2025

I liked this the instrumental to Kings was very Zappa-esque which I respect

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Mar 06 2025

Too experimental, too long. Feio was nice

Mar 07 2025

Having worked in different warehouses for years, I can ascertain that this is the kind of awful that your coworkers would put on the AUX speaker system for everyone to dread through

Ctrl by SZA
Mar 08 2025

I like a lot of the artists adjacent to her but for some reason not her

Sail Away by Randy Newman
Mar 09 2025

You've got a friend in me was all I could think about

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
Mar 10 2025

Kid's menu Deftones

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Mar 13 2025

almost a 5 first time I really vibe with an MJ album. I get why he was popular because this is something else

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
Mar 14 2025

Background music with weird vocals. Not much more than that

High Violet by The National
Mar 15 2025

Boo hoo, cry about it

Time Out Of Mind by Bob Dylan
Mar 16 2025

EVERYONE WAKE UP A BOB DYLAN ALBUM THAT WASNT A ONE? THIS IS CAUSE FOR CELEBRATION!

Penance Soiree by The Icarus Line
Mar 18 2025

Absolutely reviled the first song but I think I warmed up to it by the end

2112 by Rush
Mar 19 2025

you know an album is weird when not even a sudden chinatown jingle feels out of place

The Rising by Bruce Springsteen
Mar 20 2025

way too long but I kinda get why people liked bruce springsteen, even if only for one song (The Fuse)

Since I Left You by The Avalanches
Mar 21 2025

tivoli music. like, what am I listening to? horses neighing and bells jingling?

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Mar 22 2025

Approx. 10 years ago, Wish You Were Here was one of the few songs I learned how to fully play during my short stint as a guitar player

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Mar 23 2025

Im just not a fan of the genre

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Mar 28 2025

Vento De Maio by Elis Regina
Mar 29 2025

It was nice at times, okay at times. Kinda not my thing tho

Mar 30 2025

It's incredible how much passive knowledge this project has given me. I took just one look at the album cover for this and said "It'll be a British electropop album." Upon looking at short biography for the album on the Global reviews page, yeah, it was a British synthpop album.

Metal Box by Public Image Ltd.
Apr 03 2025

an hour of this, really?

Talk Talk Talk by The Psychedelic Furs
Apr 05 2025

better than the previous two albums but not by much

System Of A Down by System Of A Down
Apr 06 2025

Peephole was my favourite and the album was generally pleasurable but nothing amazing

Gasoline Alley by Rod Stewart
Apr 07 2025

"Over the course of his carrer, Rod Stewart has been lauded as the finest singer of his generation[...]" I read this as I was beginning to listen to the first song of this album and thought "Wow, he must've ruined his voice after all those years of singing because he sounds horrible now..." Imagine the look on my face when I found out that this was his second ever album

Moon Safari by Air
Apr 08 2025

Surprised to see that I already had 2 of the songs saved prior to clicking on this album It was a low 4, I guess

90 by 808 State
Apr 09 2025

Strange.

At Mister Kelly's by Sarah Vaughan
Apr 10 2025

listenable but I didnt care a bit for it so it gets a 2

Liquid Swords by GZA
Apr 11 2025

It was aight. Some nice song and some boring ones

I See You by The xx
Apr 12 2025

I like The xx and I hadnt heard a single one of these before. Probably for a reason

Low-Life by New Order
Apr 13 2025

idk what to think

Yank Crime by Drive Like Jehu
Apr 14 2025

each song further down the tracklist has fewer and fewer listens hmmm, I wonder why

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Apr 15 2025

Im not a blues fan but the problem with blues albums is that you cannot tell any of the songs apart

Debut by Björk
Apr 16 2025

Insant mood revitalizer. When I clicked play, it immediately put a smile on my face. This is so good

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Apr 17 2025

Guess west coast is just better

Made In Japan by Deep Purple

Did they really need a 15 minute drum solo? Shit sucked, yo

Foo Fighters by Foo Fighters
Apr 20 2025

Half of the songs just sounded like whining to me

Movies by Holger Czukay

not music

Pyromania by Def Leppard
Apr 22 2025

snore inducing

The Real Thing by Faith No More
Apr 23 2025

music for people who think family guy is hilarious

Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots by The Flaming Lips

Bandwagonesque by Teenage Fanclub
Apr 25 2025

just annoyed at this type of music at this point

Whatever by Aimee Mann
Apr 27 2025

forgettable

Paris 1919 by John Cale
Apr 28 2025

Hymns to listen to before heading to battle

The Stone Roses by The Stone Roses
Apr 29 2025

it pains me to give this rating but even if it was boring, i t wasnt bad

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Apr 30 2025

music to "find yourself" to after you realize that you are gay

Led Zeppelin IV by Led Zeppelin
May 01 2025

One good song. Rough reality but I speak it like I see it

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
May 02 2025

Never listen to the albums your favourite songs come from. It was listenable but not of my own taste

Hejira by Joni Mitchell
May 03 2025

It was all right but she looks like a buccal fat surgery victim ayy lmao alyun in the cover art

Live / Dead by Grateful Dead
May 05 2025

Yet another interesting sounding album that ends up taking the bluespill and becoming unbearably boring

Either Or by Elliott Smith
May 06 2025

just didnt hit like the other one did

May 08 2025

I wanna like ATCQ and I bet if some things were just a tiny bit different they would be my favourite rap group but a lot of the stuff just ends up sounding samey, both between songs but also intra-track. Like they made an 8 bar backing beat and then rapped over it. Theres way too little variation

May 09 2025

Doubt anyone who listened to this album as a teenager when it came out can name a single song other than the titular

Kid A by Radiohead
May 10 2025

Listened to it on my phone speaker in the woods at 10 pm and thought it was boring as shit. Gave it one more shot on my headphones and it was better. A few boring songs brings it down but I liked the vibe

May 11 2025

Out of respect for this album, I thought black text on white was antithetical to this album's message, so I have decided to write my review with black text on black instead. ████ ██ ██ ██████████ ██████ ██ ███████ ██ ████ ███ █ ████ ████████ ██ ██████. ████ █████ ███'█ █████ ███████ ███ ██ ██████ ██ ████.

Penthouse And Pavement by Heaven 17

People that like this think AI videos of Will Smith eating spaghetti are the coolest thing since sliced bread

Crazy that they named a band after the pretty, pink flower from Terraria

Homework by Daft Punk
May 18 2025

I actually expected better. I honestly only like Around the World

NEU! 75 by Neu!
May 22 2025

weird noise

Blood And Chocolate by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
May 23 2025

Shadowland by k.d. lang
May 25 2025

walked past a music store and got upset because I knew everything in there sounds better than what I was forced to listen to

Here, My Dear by Marvin Gaye
May 26 2025

WHEN DID YOU STOP LOVIN ME WHEN DID IIIIIIIIIIII STOP LOVIN YOU, BABE?

Let's Get Killed by David Holmes
May 27 2025

Kids these days are still chasing this sound it sounds great, just not for me. It sounded like the OST for some early 2000's game

Tical by Method Man
May 28 2025

Took me a long time to realize why he kept talking about Wu Tang

Want Two by Rufus Wainwright
May 29 2025

Perhaps the worst workout album ive ever heard. At least the bicep pump looks decent

Traffic by Traffic
May 30 2025

emptied my bowels to this

Bryter Layter by Nick Drake
Jun 02 2025

O, my beautiful Nick Drake. I can hear how pained you were

Jun 05 2025

I just do not like east coast rap, I think Chicago and Detroit are as far east as I can muster before it turns into wacko

World Clique by Deee-Lite
Jun 06 2025

I didnt get this album

At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Jun 07 2025

It was kinda funny at times. I feel like playing at a prison is a nice gesture

Jun 08 2025

She has a nice singing voice but whenever I wasnt paying full attention, I kinda forgot it was on and had to relisten to the same songs multiple times

Viva Hate by Morrissey
Jun 09 2025

couldnt tell when one song ended and the other one started

You Are The Quarry by Morrissey
Jun 10 2025

"I cant fucking wait until Morrissey dies - JPEGMAFIA" mogs this guy

G. Love And Special Sauce by G. Love & Special Sauce
Jun 11 2025

Did not expect this. Thought it would be some unc shit but it was pretty ok

Cupid & Psyche 85 by Scritti Politti
Jun 12 2025

Kinda Michael Jacksoney. thats at least what it reminded me of

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Jun 13 2025

Not into it

Music From The Penguin Cafe by Penguin Cafe Orchestra
Jun 14 2025

This is actually very cute. If not for some boring moments in a few of the songs, this could've potentially have been a 5

Night Life by Ray Price
Jun 18 2025

Frank Sinatra but just as boring

Elastica by Elastica
Jun 19 2025

Way better than expected

Let Love Rule by Lenny Kravitz

this one i kinda liked

Rocks by Aerosmith
Jun 27 2025

SHUT IT OFF

Le Tigre by Le Tigre
Jun 28 2025

I have this album on CD in my car and its pretty sick to be honest. I only bought it because I knew about the first song but the entire album is nice

Who's Next by The Who
Jun 30 2025

the audacity of them to release a 9 hour deluxe edition is appalling

My Aim Is True by Elvis Costello

Da Capo by Love
Jul 11 2025

I wonder if my average rating will be below 2 by the end of this project. I think it is unlikely, but with how often I dislike these albums, there might be a chance

Slayed? by Slade
Jul 12 2025

its hilarious how low quality the sound is on this album. I dont think I have ever heard an album that sounds like I am listening to it through sheet metal

All Mod Cons by The Jam
Jul 13 2025

KICK THE ENGLISH OUT OF THE STUDIO

Licensed To Ill by Beastie Boys
Jul 14 2025

Ridiculous. They are literally just speaking rhymes; no sense of rhytm

What's That Noise? by Coldcut
Jul 15 2025

Watched this on Youtube wherein a British man sitting in the background occasionally coughing was recording his record player. 10/10 experience, 5/10 music

My Generation by The Who
Jul 16 2025

Back when sounding like the Beatles was the peak of musical innovation

Joan Baez by Joan Baez
Jul 18 2025

I really dislike artist's whose only talent is vibrato. It reminds me of my ex leaving me for a rose toy. I only liked Henry Martin.

Face to Face by The Kinks
Jul 22 2025

Saying "Mr. Blabla" to everything is a tired gimmick

Remain In Light by Talking Heads
Jul 24 2025

better than every one of their other albums, still only a two

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Aug 01 2025

grocery store music not my kind of jazz. too depressing

This sounds nothing like what his other albums do

Vivid by Living Colour
Aug 18 2025

boring as can be

Heartbreaker by Ryan Adams
Aug 19 2025

Honestly couldnt tell I was listening to music for the first 20 minutes. Thats how unimportant it was

Snivilisation by Orbital
Aug 20 2025

Insane how this album came AFTER Orbital 2 yet sounds like a teenager's first time using FL Studio

Exit Planet Dust by The Chemical Brothers
Aug 21 2025

I guess it was okay enough. Kinda just had it as background music while doing some cooking

Playing With Fire by Spacemen 3
Aug 22 2025

May the circle be unbroken was the only song I cared for

Leftism by Leftfield

Electronic albums and being way too long; name a better combo.

The Who Sell Out by The Who
Sep 02 2025

Whatever they're selling, I don't want it

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Sep 03 2025

WAIT, THEY DONT LOVE YOU LIKE I LOVE YOU

25 by Adele
Sep 04 2025

I have said it before but when an artist is only ever praised for their technical singing ability, I usually find that their music is super ass. The backing tracks sound like something I would hear in commercials about analgesics for elderly people so that they can "get back to the important things in life" like picking their grandkids up, swinging them around and drinking all of their 50 different prescriptions with lemon and chamomile tea.

Maxinquaye by Tricky
Sep 05 2025

Massive Attack vibes

Closer by Joy Division
Sep 06 2025

Nonsense.

...Baby One More Time by Britney Spears
Sep 07 2025

She was way more of a normal pop star than I imagined. I thought all of her music was sexy but no, only a select few of them were made that way

That's The Way Of The World by Earth, Wind & Fire
Sep 08 2025

Way sexier jazz than I had imagined. I didnt know these guys got down like that

Murmur by R.E.M.
Sep 09 2025

eh

Manassas by Stephen Stills
Sep 14 2025

slow start but quite enjoyable

Pink Flag by Wire
Sep 15 2025

Cut this album out and a few Beatles albums and we can easily get it down to the actual 1001 albums instead of 1081

The Next Day by David Bowie
Sep 16 2025

Back to ass albums from Bowie. Love to see it

Aha Shake Heartbreak by Kings of Leon
Sep 21 2025

"Two brothers and a dream....to deliver the BEST artisan burgers imaginable" stop-and-clap hipster drivel. Waste

Picture Book by Simply Red
Sep 24 2025

Way too long but quite enjoyable

Smokers Delight by Nightmares On Wax
Sep 25 2025

Actually very sex. It probably isnt an actual 5 but I feel no reason to downgrade it

Clandestino by Manu Chao
Sep 27 2025

I am a fan. Just saw another Beatles album generated.Fuck my life

Kenya by Machito
Oct 04 2025

It was fine

Femi Kuti by Femi Kuti
Oct 06 2025

You can absolutely hear his father's influence on the songs. I liked it. Almost a 5

Raw Power by The Stooges
Oct 08 2025

('_'?)

Floodland by Sisters Of Mercy
Oct 12 2025

No.

1989 by Taylor Swift
Oct 13 2025

I dont know if this is her best album (it probably is) but I can definitely say that this is her most far-reaching one. I was, before this project, not one to listen to Taylor Swift but I had heard almost all of these songs prior to listening through this album today.

Dookie by Green Day
Oct 19 2025

Listened to this over two different occasions, coincidentally while shitting my brains out. Took me until I finished the album to realise the album name fit my predicament

Junkyard by The Birthday Party
Oct 21 2025

Punk? You are soooo different and interesting

Calenture by The Triffids
Oct 22 2025

Why is this on the list?

Tanto Tempo by Bebel Gilberto
Oct 23 2025

Wish I had listened to this during a night time highway drive

Oct 24 2025

Another album to cement my opinion that west coast >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> east coast rap

Close To You by Carpenters
Oct 26 2025

It was okay. Close to you is a nice song

The Renaissance by Q-Tip
Oct 27 2025

I fell 4 days further behind because I have just been listening to this album whenever I have had the opportunity

Call of the Valley by Shivkumar Sharma
Oct 30 2025

Not a single one of the critics would be able to put to words why this album is on the list. With that said, even though I didnt like the music, it was a great soundtrack to cooking and doing the dishes

Only By The Night by Kings of Leon
Nov 04 2025

Commercial music. Coldplay if they were as bad as people say they are

Take Me Apart by Kelela
Nov 08 2025

Not my thing.not much more to say

Step In The Arena by Gang Starr
Nov 10 2025

I hate east coast rap. All they cared about was the rhythm of their deliveries and not about the beat

Midnight Ride by Paul Revere & The Raiders
Nov 11 2025

Annoying

Suicide by Suicide
Nov 12 2025

Like Poledo but worse. Cortisol spiking core

Bad by Michael Jackson
Nov 14 2025

My ex was into this guy's music. I absolutely get why he was popular, though I am not sure I can exactly understand how popular he actually was since I wasnt around back then. That said, it isn't for me.

The Rolling Stones by The Rolling Stones
Nov 16 2025

Its not for me either. I just dont like this kind of music

Run-D.M.C. by Run-D.M.C.
Nov 17 2025

This is so bad. I genuinely cant listen to this without every song sounding like different introductions in the DK Rap

Bug by Dinosaur Jr.
Nov 18 2025

I actually dig this.

Cypress Hill by Cypress Hill
Nov 19 2025

How I (wish I) could just skip a track

Nov 20 2025

I absolutely love what they do with their guitars in the slower, more intimate sections such as the start of And You and I A little less when it is more grand and energetic, but still really enjoyed this

Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
Nov 23 2025

I generally like Zappa's stuff but I have been avid about disliking his early stuff. This is one such example. Most of this is unlistenable, pretentious noise. It took him 8 years to produce a good version of "Trouble Every Day" which is testament to him improving as a musician. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTkNxr7z7ao Also, this is how I find out that the entire live recording of his 1947 A Token Of His Extreme show has been taken off of youtube. What a fucked up day

War by U2
Nov 24 2025

Initially it was way better than it ended

Heartattack And Vine by Tom Waits
Nov 27 2025

The drunk guy that sticks around you and your friends after you got kicked out of the last bar together who suddenly gets a stroke of inspiration-core

Wild Wood by Paul Weller
Nov 28 2025

It was mellow. Instrumental - Pt. 1 was the absolute best song by miles. 6/5 on that one. Rest was okay, I guess

Garbage by Garbage
Nov 29 2025

if the entire album was like the first two song were, this was a clear 5/5. Shame

The Doors by The Doors
Dec 02 2025

Not my taste

Walking Wounded by Everything But The Girl
Dec 03 2025

It's all right, I guess. Not special

E.V.O.L. by Sonic Youth
Dec 04 2025

Still not a fan of this band

Chris by Christine and the Queens
Dec 05 2025

Weird. It cant decide what era it wants to sound like

Quiet Life by Japan
Dec 07 2025

British music: 🤮 British music, Japan: 🙂

Roots by Sepultura
Dec 14 2025

The panda eats roots and shoots. That is why they are the lead cause of gun violence

Chelsea Girl by Nico
Dec 16 2025

I, for some unexplicable reason, just dont consider this worth listening to. She doesnt seem like she is even trying to sing

Tommy by The Who
Dec 17 2025

By the halfway point, I had thought up a funny review to write which was the following: "Give me a second to savor this moment. I think this is the only time in my life I will ever hear a song about Pinball so I want to enjoy it while I can." Imagine the look of excitement on my face when I got to the end of the album

One World by John Martyn
Dec 20 2025

Almost a four, to be desu ne with you

american dream by LCD Soundsystem
Dec 22 2025

Another day, another LCD Soundsystem album that makes me think they were the ones that made that old youtube theme song but then I remember that it was called 09 Sound System Dreamscape

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Dec 24 2025

way better than I expected. I understand why so many people talk well of this guy

Dec 25 2025

I forgot to rate this the other day but I remember being way happier when it ended and it started autoplaying real music

Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Dec 27 2025

Decent soundtrack for people watching

Microshift by Hookworms
Dec 30 2025

White-people-owned-and-run ramen shop soundtrack core

Tarkus by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Jan 02 2026

Annoyed me

Antichrist Superstar by Marilyn Manson
Jan 05 2026

The beauty of listening to albums later than planned is that you can appreciate the finer references in them that you wouldn't have been able to six months prior. References such as Marilyn Manson saying "6-7" It was like a different taste of The Downward Spiral and that is an album I really like. This was great

Casanova by The Divine Comedy
Jan 06 2026

Could do without it, like many, many other albums on this list

Time (The Revelator) by Gillian Welch
Jan 09 2026

Pretty. If I were laying down on a nice grassy field with my eyes closed and nothing but summer winds and the smell of flowers brushing my face, I would have rated this a 5

Pelican West by Haircut 100
Jan 10 2026

I liked it way more than expected at times. Still not for me

Tonight's The Night by Neil Young
Jan 11 2026

Neil Young's Try to make a good album challenge: impossible mode

Fishscale by Ghostface Killah
Jan 12 2026

I was moaning about how many shit albums I had ahead of me to my friend and he said "Oh, you have Ghostface Killah up today. At least you'll feel a bit gangsta" I did in fact NOT feel gangsta listening to this.

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Jan 13 2026

Ive heard select songs and they were great. The album overall isnt as strong and the amount of plays reflect that

Heaux Tales by Jazmine Sullivan
Jan 14 2026

Not my kind of music. Sexhaver RNB

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading
Jan 15 2026

I almost doxxed my project name for this review but I managed to realize how dumb that would be in time. At this point, about 1000 albums in, I have heard enough music and said enough unique things to where all I can say is that an album is not for me. This is one of those many ones.

A Seat at the Table by Solange
Jan 16 2026

Honestly cant remember a single song after listening to it

Rain Dogs by Tom Waits
Jan 17 2026

I dont consider this real music, actually

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Jan 19 2026

Really nice but I am surprised it ended as abruptly as it did. Did not feel like a natural conclusion

Nowhere by Ride
Jan 20 2026

Kinda shoegaze-y at times. It took twice as long to listen through as the record's playtime because I was listening to PARALYSED over and over again. Great song. Overall decent album. High 3 but not a 4

Repeater by Fugazi
Jan 21 2026

Couldnt tell one song from another

Hypnotised by The Undertones
Jan 22 2026

Another annoying mouthpiece of the Israeli Government. Wait, you're telling me they're just British Rock'N'Roll artists?

Hearts And Bones by Paul Simon
Jan 23 2026

Him yelling "I CANT BREATHE!" in the first song brought back memories of George Floyd that made me too distracted to enjoy the rest of the album.

Ghosteen by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Jan 24 2026

I am 11 albums in today and I have to listen to another Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds album. Please... don't piss me off. Stop trying to piss me off

Machine Gun Etiquette by The Damned
Jan 25 2026

Normally I'd rate something like this a 2 because it wasn't /that/ annoying to listen to but, hey, let's spice things up and try something new

Technique by New Order
Jan 26 2026

The tunes were quite hot at times

Street Signs by Ozomatli
Jan 27 2026

I have never been as happy to hear an American's voice until now

Nevermind by Nirvana
Jan 28 2026

Very angsty

Synchronicity by The Police
Jan 30 2026

Some great songs, some not so great. Average overall

The Stooges by The Stooges
Feb 03 2026

One of the songs somewhere in the middle just caught me so off-guard that I am voting it a 1 out of principle. In reality I just didnt like the album, so it should have been a two, but that one song was too strange

Dry by PJ Harvey
Feb 04 2026

I'd like this if I had a girlfriend. Possibly.

The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy
Feb 06 2026

Some good ol' RUGGA RUGGA electronic I somehow heard this cover way before I ever heard Prodigy's original Firestarter and I still think it is such a beautiful rendition https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPI3b9iPSN0

Legalize It by Peter Tosh
Feb 07 2026

The devil's lettuce

OK Computer by Radiohead
Feb 09 2026

Well, I accidentally wrote my rating for this album under In Rainbows so see my rating for that album for my thoughts on OK Computer. As for my rating of In Rainbows, I'll write it here. All my complaints about songs being thematically non sequitur are done away with for In Rainbows. Every song feels as if it has a place in the tracklist and flows into each other flawlessly. Every song is replayable and I have even gone out of my way to listen to live recordings and cover renditions of the entire album, both by Radiohead themselves and by cover bands. That's how much I like this (In Rainbows) album. Unfortunately, I am about to give OK Computer a 5 in order to offset the fact that I gave In Rainbows a 3, though imagine that these are changed. For all it matters, at least I will know the true placement of In Rainbows on my summary page. I don't mind.

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley
Feb 12 2026

This project has actually made me hate music so much

All Hope Is Gone by Slipknot
Feb 13 2026

Decent enough to be somewhat enjoyable despite a headache

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Feb 14 2026

This was, however, not good enough to be enjoyable with a headache. It wouldve been a 2, had I not had a headache

Club Classics Vol. One by Soul II Soul
Feb 15 2026

Could do without. Speaking of which, this could do with some more dolphin screams

Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
Feb 16 2026

Every song would be skipped every single time they came on if they were in any of my playlists. Only exception would be if I were chained up in a dungeon and had all four limbs restrained, about to be murdered

Heavy Weather by Weather Report
Feb 17 2026

Very fresh to hear an album like this on the list

A Walk Across The Rooftops by The Blue Nile
Feb 18 2026

I am doing a rare gesture of appreciation for how NOT shit this was and I will be giving it a 3 despite me not liking a single moment of it. No matter how bad it gets, it can't be worse than Nick Cave

Konnichiwa by Skepta
Feb 21 2026

it's quite alright

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Feb 23 2026

I actually didnt know Dire Straits made music like this. I thought it all sounded like Sultans of Swing. Not bad but not my style

The Idiot by Iggy Pop
Feb 24 2026

Went by completely unnoticeably

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Feb 26 2026

I said it over a year ago and I will say it again: I hate the harmonica

With The Beatles by Beatles
Feb 27 2026

For the first time in my life I have actually been happy over my speakers being broken and no longer able to play specifically the right side of stereo sound. It means that when I got tired of listening to this shite I could just take my headphones off, turn my speakers on and only hear the instrumentals (still bad but manageable)

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
Feb 28 2026

Not a fan. It wasnt bad but I still didnt enjoy it

Foxbase Alpha by Saint Etienne
Mar 03 2026

Cute. I relistened to it after writing that first part. Really cute, actually

Nick Of Time by Bonnie Raitt
Mar 04 2026

You couldve told me i had listened to this five times before and i wouldnt even question it

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Mar 05 2026

Equal to their other ones tbh

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Mar 06 2026

I liked the acoustic versions in the end. Cuteness

Mar 07 2026

The first half was not a good shower soundtrack but the next half was nice to walk to

Kimono My House by Sparks
Mar 09 2026

Another album that makes claim to glorious Nippon and then ruins their name

Bright Flight by Silver Jews
Mar 10 2026

I thought they only cared about gold but when there is noney to be made, even silver will do

Bossanova by Pixies
Mar 12 2026

I was about to comment on how I liked Doolittle and then one year they make this garbage but then I looked up my ratings for Pixies on this site and found out I misremember liking Doolittle and that they always sucked

Porcupine by Echo And The Bunnymen
Mar 13 2026

Another strange album

Blood, Sweat & Tears by Blood, Sweat & Tears
Mar 15 2026

Im rating this a 3 purely because it ended on Satie's 1st movement. I didnt like the album but I like Satie

LP1 by FKA twigs
Mar 16 2026

Thought this would be better

Ananda Shankar by Ananda Shankar
Mar 17 2026

1001 albums I couldve lived without hearing

Elephant by The White Stripes
Mar 18 2026

It is quite astounding how I can with almost 99% certainty ascertain when an album has ended nowadays because the music that autoplays afterwards is always from another artist and always much more enjoyable

The Rise & Fall by Madness
Mar 19 2026

Quite unfathomable to imagine that music like this helped these men get laid in the 80s

Dust by Screaming Trees
Mar 20 2026

Somehow this blends into the background very easily. Many times I would forget I was listening to it despite it being very noisy. 3 for that fact

Screamadelica by Primal Scream
Mar 21 2026

I actually dont know what to think about this. At some point I was questioning if it had already finished because the songs started getting good and sounded as if they were made by Boards of Canada but then I paused my dishwashing to see that I was only on song 4 or something. There were some good parts and some boring parts. I guess that says enough about what rating I should give it

Buffalo Springfield Again by Buffalo Springfield
Mar 22 2026

Uneventful and way too safe. Yes, I am bringing back the term 'safe'

British Steel by Judas Priest
Mar 23 2026

I looked forward to listening to this because this is leagues better than Buffalo Springfield. Still not my genre

Different Class by Pulp
Mar 26 2026

I turned the volume way down and it become listenable

Eliminator by ZZ Top
Mar 27 2026

This is my redemption

Music From Big Pink by The Band
Mar 29 2026

It autoplayed into Nick Drake which only then made me realize that these guys aren't too far away from that vibe to me. I liked it

Mar 30 2026

I've heard one song of theirs before and I thought it was nice. This isn't music. This is something you end up recording as a gag after a night of drinking.

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Apr 01 2026

Not my cuppa. I dont understand what cultural impact they had either

Kilimanjaro by The Teardrop Explodes
Apr 02 2026

I left my house for the first time in 6 days and this was the soundtrack to my adventure. I have to say, I am a bit disappointed.

Low by David Bowie
Apr 03 2026

>Deep in your room >You never leave your room Very true. I liked the instrumental part in the latter half a lot. The sung parts in the first half not as much.

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Apr 04 2026

All of these songs are good on their own but, for possibly the first (or second) time, I dont think they work together as an album. I think I had this critique about another Radiohead album. Individually, they average out to a 4~ish but the sum of their parts isnt that good

Want One by Rufus Wainwright
Apr 05 2026

Speechless... not from awe but from lack of it

New Forms by Roni Size
Apr 12 2026

Not the genre I expected at all from something called New Forms by Roni Size
